The Master Chief had just said:"No, I think we're just getting started", that Cortana had said "Wait Chief, I'm receiving a detress call from the moon of Halo.Analyzing.its a message from marines who had escaped but their lifeboat had been damaged and...No, that's impossible!
-What is impossible?
-I thought you were the last but... there is a Spartan with them!
-So maybe we should get them with us." The Cheif couldn't believe it. Another Spartan, another one who had survived from the assault on Reach. He was sure that he could find this other Spartan to fight the Flood.
But a strange surprise was waiting for him. Dropships. Human, Covenant and a kind of giant Flood carrier. "What are they doing here?,said the Chief.
-we'll find out when we will land."
On the surface, there were Flood, Covenant, Sentinels and, like the message had said, human and spartans but there was almost thousands of each, not fighting for their lives but by seeing the chief, all seemed happier.
"thank you to have come, said an Elite. I'm Strato, from the Alpha crew. I know that you are the Master Chief.
-That's right, but what is going on?
-A contest sir, said the Elite, or if you prefer, a 3 on 1.
-What?
-that's right. Human, Covenant and Flood are going to face the prototypes created by the monitor. The last surviving species will win the ships of his choice. That means if the Flood win, they will get our ship to invade and mutate more worlds. If you are the winner, you will be able to board our ships and continue your mission to find our homeworld.
-that is what I would do. And how about you?
-Well, same as you but looking for Earth instead of Omega.
-Thank you to have come to the party sir, said a marine. I'm pvt. Johnson and it seems that you now know why we're all here.
-Welcome, said a Flood. I'm swinglas, from the third growing den.
-Well, said the Chief, I hope I will not have to heard all the presentations. I just need to know 1 more thing.
-I'm sure I already know what you need as information, said the monitor himself. To see my prototypes, you have to go to the first cave on your right."
When the Chief got there, he didn't saw 1 or 2 sentinels, but about 20000, waiting on a construction tower. They were constructing  20 hypersoldiers of 1000 sentinels each. They were constructed by other sentinels and were about 15 meters tall.
"What's that? asked the Chief for himself.
-I introduce you the SpartansXII, but I think I already spoke to you about them."
The Chief wasn't knowing first, but he suddenly remembered of the time he was on Halo, at the Library and in the control center.:"you are only second generation-class cyborg. You could easily be a twelveth generation-class."
"You took unuseful weapons to combat the Flood. You should have been also made stronger, Retreiver."
"If you are unready to help, I will simply find another one. Since then, we must activate the Ring. There is no choice."
"Now I know who were the 'other ones' said the Chief.
-Of course with your Construct, you felt more intelligent.
-What do you have against me now, said Cortana, Halo has been destroyed!
-You know everything now. You should get to the camps now, because the battle will start in 10 human hours."
The Chief hurried to the camps and there were already people around a table.
"You now know what's gonna happen Chief.
-There is no time to loose, he replied. And" He looked at a flood"And we should get all of the dead humans and covenant near the Flood camp
-What? said Cortana.
-Yes, to get all chances on our side, the smallest Flood will stay near their camp to create more warriors. And don't be afraid to transform me after my death. Now, let's begin the battle!
-We're going to follow your plan carfully, said Strato, and we will die for the God's will!"
They were ready to fight.
