A Marine sitting on the ground, breathing erratically, watches as the Spartans approaches. They step over him to a standing female Marine.

Female Marine: "It blew right through us. (They watch as the Scarab ramps over the bridge, out of view) 50-cal, rockets... didn't do a thing."

A Pelican drops a tank. Sergeant Major Avery J. Johnson gets out, the Spartans and Marines walk over.

Sergeant Johnson: "Where's the rest of your platoon?"

Female Marine: "Wasted, Sarge."

Marine 1: "And we will be, too, sir, if we don't get the hell outta here!"

Sergeant Johnson: (Puts a hand on Marine's shoulder) "You hit, Marine?"

Marine 1: "N-no, Sir."

Sergeant Johnson : "Then listen up!"

What you hear him say next just made your day a lot better.

Sergeant Johnson: "Noble 6 is gonna jump in this tank, roll across the bridge, and blow up any inhuman-son-of-a-bitch dumb enough to get between him and the Prophet of Regret! Pull yourself together, because you're going with him!"

Female Marine: "What about that Scarab?"

Sergeant Johnson: "We've all run the simulations, they're tough, but they ain't invincible. Stay with the Spartans, they'll know what to do."

Female Marine: "Yes, sir, Sergeant!"

Cortana (COM): "Thanks for the tank. He never gets me anything."

Sergeant Johnson climbs back on the Pelican, and cocks its machine gun.

Sergeant Johnson: (smirks) "Oh, I know what the ladies like."

His smirk quickly left as he turned his head towards you giving him the glare telling him to back off.

Ladies Like Armor Plating

The Spartans stand next to the tank, holding a Battle Rifle, while you had an SMG as a sidearm and Chief having a sniper as her sidearm. There is also a Warthog to your right. The burning skyline with the Covenant Assault Carrier hovering over it is visible in the distance. The bridge is strewn with the wreckage of cars, trucks and buses. A multitude of Ghosts patrol the bridge, as well as a Covenant Wraith tank. You look at the tank with excitement as you jump right in the driving seat. Chief Keeping it safe jumps into the Warthog as the rest of the Marines either join you or the smarter ones join Chief.

You and the Chief starts driving your respected vehicles heading towards the bridge. About halfway across, Banshees swoop in for an attack from either side, and three Phantoms fly by, deploying troops and another Wraith tank. At the other end of the bridge, a group of Banshees flies in over the rooftops. You aim the barrel of the tank as you open fire hearing a satisfying boom. The marines who are riding with you look up at you with a fearful look as they can hear you laughing like a madman.

The Spartans then approach the second speed tunnel.

Cortana: "That's quite a welcome party."

A pack of Ghosts skitter into view and open fire on you. They are soon joined by a pair of Wraith tanks which come in from the nearby highway tunnel, as well as another pair of Banshees. But with more satisfying boom they were no match for you and the tank.

You enter the highway tunnel meeting little resistance until a barrier supposedly prevents you from taking your vehicle any further. A Warthog pulls up and joins your cause, while a trio of Jackals stationed on the barrier fires down at you. With a sadend look you jumped out of the tank as Chief walks towards you as she starts trying to comfort you. You could swear you can hear a Marine saying "Thank god that's over"
