The first Phantom halted above the Spartan's roof, dropping off a single Elite donning Field Marshall armor, painted the blackest black the spartan has ever seen with lava-like energy flowing through the armor similar to generals with the size of the Elite similar to those of Brutes with bulky muscles, before the other two phantoms dropped off two more elites in Zealot armor with a similar color scheme, the leader roared at the lone spartan and ignited a black Energy sword while the other two Elites ignited yellow ones, further back the spirit dropped off a large group of Brutes of various rankings and weaponry

"Well that's new. And frightening." The spartan said, slowly stepping back

"We are the Centurions! You will taste the might of our blades, and gurgle your last breath, Demon!" One of the Zealots roared out

Seven separate brutes set up Needle Rifles and Focus Rifles, while the Brute in the middle prepped a plasma launcher

"If I was alone, I'd be shitting bricks right now..." The spartan mumbled under his breath

The phantoms and spirit along with it's banshee escort headed deeper into the city before numerous seraphs followed them

"That's quite the 'roided out Elite." Vinnie said over the comms

Reaper pulled out a smoke grenade and threw it in front of him before sprinting towards the ledge and vaulting off the rooftop

"Go, go, go! Move Scar's building!" Reaper ordered, suppressing the enemies on the roof as the civilians fled out the doors and towards the spartan

"We've got a Falcon group and two pelicans headed our way for EVAC!" One of the troopers told the Commander before escorting the civilians while the group of Covenant return fire Vinnie and Rix were the last two out of the building and stood behind Reaper for cover and helping keep the brutes heads down before they were torn apart by multiple machine guns from Falcons when one was shot down from a brute with a fuel rod cannon

The two pelicans hovered over Scar's roof and waited to pick up the group

"Rix, fall back and help EVAC the civvies!" Reaper order, before Rix nodded and hugged the commander then sprinted into the building and helping the troopers escort the civilians through the building before Scar got to the roof and covered Reaper and Vinnie so they could fall back and took cover inside the building

"Civvies are loaded up!" Scar told over the comms

"Load up the troopers!" Reaper replied before his position began getting bombarded by a wraith that was dropped off on the distant rooftop

"Hurry up! We can't stay here much longer!" The commander told, before dodging a black energy sword that was thrusted towards his chest "Vinnie, fall back! I'll hold 'em off!" Reaper told before firing his plasma repeater at the Centurion and sticking a plasma grenade on his shoulder before following Vinnie and halting at the second set of stairs and dropping a satchel charge down the stairs before detonating it, blocking the way up with rubble

"We're waiting on you, Sir!" Scar told, before seeing Reaper finally getting to the roof

"Get to the bird! We cannot stay any longer!" Reaper told, following Scar into the pelican and taking off towards Traxus Tower
