      Master Chief, one of the last of a kind of super-soldiers, called SPARTANs, just escaped from the Pillar of Autumn, before its engines exploded, and destroyed the ring-world Halo.
      He started his adventure on that vessel, after the Covenant, an alien race attempting to destroy the human race, invaded it. He got to a lifeboat and landed on Halo. He battled through caves, islands, swamps and even ancient buildings. He fought against Covenant, Flood, and also Forerunners such as 343 Guilty Spark, who tried to get Master Chief to activate Halo and eliminate all sentient life in the galaxy.
      "Did anyone else make it?" asked Master Chief. "Scanning..." said Cortana, an AI construct, and was the guide of the Autumn. She could hack into networks and even control ships. "Just... dust and echoes... We are all that's left... We did what we had to do. For Earth! An entire Covenant armada obliterated and the Flood... We had no choice..."
      Suddenly, a flash of light blinded Chief. He put up his hand to block the light. He suddenly felt a weird feeling. "Wha?!" He was teleported from the Longsword fighter, and the ship exploded.




      Back on Halo, as it seems to have reappeared, in a box canyon, a Banshee flew through the sky. After several minutes, a rocket flew straight toward it and the vehicle was destroyed. Suddenly, a battle begins against SPARTANs and smoke fills the air. A Pelican files over head carrying 8 more super-soldiers. It lands, but a rocket pummels the Pelican, killing several passengers and injuring the driver. The surviving passengers take cover behind rocks and a destroyed Covenant Dropship. Another rocket is shot and the Pelican explodes before the driver can get out.
      A SPARTAN in green is in combat with another one in orange. "Had enough?" asks the orange SPARTAN. "Nope, I've just gotten started,"
      A plasma grenade is thrown in the air and sticks to a yellow SPARTAN, as he runs into a group and kills his teammates. Rockets and fuel rod shots are coming from everywhere, and pretty soon everyone is dead, except for the 2 guys in combat. "Ok, we go on three," the orange SPARTAN announced. The other didn't reply. "1... 2... 3!" The green SPARTAN turns the corner, guns ready. There was a small moment of pause. Then they started shooting, but kept missing. "What the hell is up with my gun?" "Maybe it's just you, as you've always been a bad aim!" "Shut the fuck up!" The green SPARTAN throws his two pistols and they hit the other one, where he crashes down to the grassy ground. "Wahoo! Direct-o Hit-o!"
      In the middle of the canyon, Chief is teleported onto a teleporter pad. He gazes in amazement. "Where... where.... Where the hell am I?" "Chief... look..." said Cortana. He looks up, and gasps in horror. "WHAT?!?!?!" Chief shouts. "But I destroyed Halo! How-" Cortana interrupts, "Chief, I'm picking up movement." "Where?" Chief demands. "Over that hill." Chief walks to the top of the hill and gasps in amazement.
      Dozens of bodies of SPARTANs are everywhere, Pelicans, Wraiths, and Dropships are destroyed, and no one is to be seen. Chief walks up to a small base, with a blue symbol on a side. "Uh... I have a bad feeling...." Cortana admits. "Cortana, I've had a bad feeling ever since I first put you in my helmet."
      "HOLD IT RIGHT THERE!" a voice calls from behind. "Uh..." "Who are you?" the voice demands. Chief turns around and sees a pistol right at his head! "Holy fuck!!! Lower your weapon! I won't attack! I'm unarmed!" "What's your god damn name?!" "Chief... Master Chief." Chief replies. There was a short pause. "Huh? Weird-o! My name is Master Rookie. What a coincidence!" Chief doesn't reply. "No, I don't know my way around here. I thought I saw a teleporter on top of this base. Let's see where it goes to!"
      "WHAT?" Chief sticks his foot out and trips Master Rookie. He lands with a big thud."I ain't going through any teleporter." "Ok, ok.... But dude, can you please take your foot out of my chest? It's hard to breathe."
      So the two SPARTANS go look around the box canyon. "Are you sure there weren't any Covenant?" Chief asks. "Of course not. Now can we go through the teleporter?!" There was a long pause, and finally, "NO!"
      "You first!" exclaimed Rookie. "No, you wanted to go through it, so GO!" "Ok, ok, I'll go... Jesus, talk about a bossy..." Rookie gets into a ball and rolls into the teleporter. Chief stands in amazement. This guy is one big weirdo, he thought. He than walks into the teleporter, where his adventure begins...
