Synopsis

Bravo-21, T. Rymarr, kills a Brute with a BR55HB SR Battle Rifle.
Bravo-22, S. Hartley, is wounded during Delta Team's escape.

The short film follows two UNSC Marine Shock Troops fighting across a wasteland, being engaged by Covenant Loyalist forces, led by the Jiralhanae

The film starts off with two ODSTs of Delta Team, Bravo-21 (T. Rymarr) and Bravo-22 (S. Hartley), being tracked on an aerial camera as they move through a wasteland with gunfire going off around them along with several Banshee fuel rod strikes closely missing them.

Bravo-22 is tracking something on a hand-held scanner, and retrieves a elongated casing labeled "UNSC" from under a pile of debris while Bravo-21 gives him covering fire against fast-moving enemies. Superheated metal spikes impale the wall that they are near as a pair of Jiralhanae Minors open fire with Type-25 Carbine weapons. Bravo-21 squarely hits them both with a BR55HB SR Battle Rifle, downing one as Bravo-22 calls for evacuation, prompting a D77H-TCI Pelican Dropship to begin its descent to their position as Bravo-21 kills the second Brute with his BR55HB SR.

"I'm hit!"
— Bravo-22, S. Hartley

"Suck it up!"
— Bravo-21, T. Rymarr

Bravo-21 is almost killed by a Fuel Rod Cannon strike from a strafing Banshee flier, and at this time, radar or radio dishes can be seen in the distance. The Pelican drops off a Warthog, prompting the ODSTs to make a run for it in the middle of an exposed area. Bravo-21 takes the driver's seat while Bravo-22 takes the passenger seat. Bravo-22 is then hit from an unknown source of fire, splattering smears of blood against the Warthog's windshield and the camera. The Warthog smashes through a wall then, shortly afterwards, the film ends with 'Transmission Terminated, End Part 1'.

Trivia

  • Although the battle takes place during the second Covenant invasion of Earth, the date on the camera says that it is September 12th, 2534 at 1:00 AM, which puts it almost 20 years prior to the first invasion of Earth. It is possible this was just a production error and not intentional.
  • The BR55HB SR rifles that the Marine Infantryman and Shock Troops were using were equipped with Flashlights and Laser Pointers on the foregrip of their rifles. They were also equipped with a Fully Automatic firing mode, which has not been seen before.
  • The short was filmed at a Wellington, New Zealand Landfill
