    Here is the prolouge to my book

    Alright. First of all, i should say that this book includes some ideas from halo, and predator.Also, this is an entirely different book from halo. well here it is.

                                                                                           Prolouge

             John stoped for a breath as he climbed the fortress wall. "Hell of a long way down" he thought to himself. "Can't let primitive fears get the better of me. Got to keep going". And indeed it was a long way down. 905 feet to be exact. John pressed on. Then on his radio, a voice said "Geuruda 1, this is Charlie team.Come in, over. John replied "Charlie team, this is Geuruda 1, go ahead, over. Are the charges set, over. Charllie team replied "Affermative Geuruda 1, charges are set. En route to rv, and awaiting response from Viktor 7,over". John, while still climbing said "Copy Charlie team. objective 2 is close to achieved. Out". John neared the top of the wall. Objective 2 was his choice. To capture and obtain enemy documents, and return them to base. Charlie team's objective was to plant the explosives at the propane tanks underneath the fortress, then fall back to rv point zulu and await the arrival of Geuruda 1 and Viktor 7. And Viktor 7's objective was to watch out for any signs of the enemy commander leaving the vicinity. John remembered something " Viktor 7, this is Geuruda 1, has the mother bird left the nest? Over." he called into his headset. Seconds passed. Finally, Viktor 7 replied "Negative Gueruda 1. Bit I'll keep you informed, over. Good, John said to himself. One less thing to worry about. About 12 minutes later, he reached the top. He slowly peeked his head over the top. He looked to the right. Nothing. He looked to the left. All clear. He carefully pulled himself up. Just then, he heard voices and footsteps approaching.

               "Now to test that new camo suit" he thought to himself. John pushed a button on his wrist data pad. His body faded, then went fully transparent. Just as the voices and footsteps rounded the corner, John jumped up onto the roof. Quickly, and silently. And landed just as quietly. Two figures emerged from the shadows. They were talking to each other. "So, what do you think about the commander?" one said. The other replied "I don't know. He kind of comes off as a hard-ass to me". "Yeah, you're right. But then again..." Their voices fadded. As did their footsteps. Satisfied, John hopped down, camo-suit still armed. "Don't want to take any chances" he thought. He pressed on. Past doorways, and darkened allyways. Then he found it. The central HQ buikding. But one thing was wrong. It was empty. Then all of a sudden on John's radio "Gueruda 1, this is Viktor 7, we have a problem. The commander is heading out. We have less time then we thought. Hurry up. Out"

               "*** it" John said. He had to hurry. He dashed inside. He searched franticly. Through filing cabnets, drawers and the like. Then he searched the computers. "There you are" he exclaimed. He took out a flash drive and downloaded the files. Then as he was about to finish up, two guards walked into the room. John pushed himself against the wall. He dared not breathe. The guards said "The doors open. Someone's been in here." The other said "Will you just find the *** thing so we can get out of here? "Hey don't get your panties in a knot." "Wait" The guard closest to John reached out his hand toward John. Sweat poured down John's back. He reached for his speargun. He felt it, and immediatly an image flashed through his mind. A crude device no bigger than his forearm that resembled a giant pistol. He grasped the handle. But just as the guard's hand was about to grab him, the other guard said "Alright, I found it. Let's go. We don't want to be late. Then both guards exited the building quickly.

                "That was too close" John said to himself. "Now... where was I? By now all of the files had downloaded onto the thumbdrive. John retracted it, and pocketed it. Just as he was about to leave, Charlie team called him: "Gueruda 1, this is Charlie team. Viktor 7 has made contact with rv point. Explosives are primed and armed. Dentionation in T-5;00. Get over here. out". John then ran for all he was worth. Past darkened buildings, and darker allies. Back up to the top of the wall he had scaled earlier. He took out a grappiling hook and planted it in a cornar of the wall. He grabbed the rope, hopped over the edge and repelled down. Mere feet at first, but as he gained momentum, his strides became larger. When he reached the bottom, he ran all the way to the edge of the surrounding forest, to the top of the ridge overlooking the fortress. Charlie team and Viktor 7 were already there.

               "Well, well, look what the cat dragged in." said Viktor 7. "About time you showed up" Then someone from Charlie team shouted "Can it you two. Sit back and watched the fireworks". No more than 30 seconds later, that is just what they saw; a massive explosion, and a mushroom cloud to go with it. "Is the commander dead?" Viktor 7 asked? "Affermitive. I have a positive I.D on his transport. And I think I see his body hanging out the window." Someone from Charlie team said looking through a pair of binoculers. "You want to see? He asked John. John replied "I'll just take your word for it." Viktor 7 then asked " Did you retrieve the data? "Yeah, I have it right here" said John, pulling out the thumbdrive" "Objectives 1-4 completed. Let's go home" said Viktor 7. "Yeah, let's go" John replied.

    The story would be a ton better if actual grammar was used.  Please use quotation rules.
