(Double post. Sorry.)
After the Pelican had landed, Zach had driven off towards the mountains while the rest of Gold team moved to the HQ. He spent nearly 2 hours looking for a good sniper's position before he found what he was looking for.
A small crevice, about 5 feet tall, had been eroded into the side of a cliff face that overlooked the sandy dunes. Covering the Mongoose with a camoflauge net, he picked up his equipment and slid into the crack. Once he had situated all of his equipment, he unwrapped his M99 Stanchion and set the weapon on it's bipod. He connected a small fusion generator to the weapon, which would give it an unlimited amount of fire, so long as he didn't run out of slugs. After plugging in the generator, he slid a specially built long-range scope over the end of the barrel. The scope would automatically interface with his helmet and provide him with up to 32X magnification.
Meanwhile, back on the ODST camp, SPARTAN-024 had just recieved his orders.
"Sir, yes sir. Please be advised that SPARTAN-102 is currently located out in the mountains and is prepared to offer support with an M99 Stanchion. (If you require sniper support, just radio for 102 and he'll fire. He doesn't speak much, so you don't need to wait for me.)
Nick motioned for the rest of Gold team to remount the Scorpion. Climbing into the driver's seat, he pulled the engine out of idle and headed off in the direction of the Banewolf.
