Master Chief
After about four quick shots, which saw the bullets slow then stop, the Spartan slid the bulldog back behind him as Kalmiya performed a thorough scan of Hareta, though her energy was found as the second summoned pokemon emerged.
"That's Misdreavus, Chief. It's a literal ghost, so don't expect your guns to do much. You packed a plasma rifle, right?"
"Slipped my mind," John replied as the reflective barrier around Misdreavus faded, and was replaced by swirling dark energy, which was quick to condense and fire toward the Spartan. His shields took the brunt of the blast, though broke with the hazarding alarms to sound, and Chief was lifted off his feet, flung backward. Hareta's partners seemed to particularly enjoy these beam-like attacks, as this dark pulse was following the Empoleon's primary strategy of hydro pump. Difference was, Chief couldn't simply close the distance this time and beat it to death.
He needed to switch up his strategy.
Breastplate lightly smoking from the blast, the Spartan fell to the ground, positioning himself just enough, to allow himself a feet-first landing. Rock and earth shattered about from his impact, creating a small crater about the Chief, but his mobility didn't seem hindered in the slightest, the Spartan glancing about his immediate area to grow an idea.
He still needed to get the fight closer to Cairo Station.
