Story Type: Multi-Chapter. Crossover
Status: In-progress
Rating: T with suggestive themes later on
Author notes: Okay so I have in fact uploaded this story before but I deleted it and everything I wrote got deleted(not by me) so I had to rewrite everything. Details are on my profile if you want to know more. The prologue is the same I think. I can't quite remember but I did edit it and the following chapters will be different than the ones I first uploaded too. It is in fact Animorphs and Halo so hopefully you know what they are. I will try to explain a lot of what goes on if you aren't an expert on either Halo or Animorphs but it will be helpful if you have some background. I will also alternate between posting it both Animorphs and Halo fathoms. Now, lets begin!
Prologue
(What should we do Prince Aximili?) the voice of his comrade made itself known in his mind. Though he could see he tried to keep calm, he could sense the fear behind the simple question. Looking at the radar of his ship he once again made sure they were safe, for the moment at least. They had managed to lose their pursuers in Z space. Only its pure white nothingness surrounded them, the usual black and white dots of stars billions of miles away absent from their sight.
(Just keep going until we reach normal space again Alfar,) he replied with a calmness his comrade could only dream of in their situation.
They had been assigned a simple mission at first. Destroy a small enemy group approaching the homeland. The enemy ships were outnumbered three to one. He should have seen it ahead of time, only fools would send such a small amount to attack the home planet directly, and he knew their enemy to be anything but precisely that. The dozen enemy ships they thought they would easily eliminate turned into four dozen. The others they had not seen had been camouflaged and hidden from their radars. Their ships were bigger and better equipped than they had thought and soon their own ships were destroyed one after another. Not even their dome ship could survive as it soon joined the rest. They had managed to destroy three fourths of the enemy ships, but at a great cost. Only himself and Alfar were left. This was Alfar's first real combat and what had started as enthusiasm soon turned into fear.
He had already radioed their home planet about the situation and they had increased their defensive perimeter but he did not expect backup to arrive anytime soon. They had received new of the enemy advancement on their planet days ahead of the time it would take to reach it, and had been immediately dispatched to intercept and destroy them before they could arrive at their planet.
He was left with only one option, and a choice that would change the course of this war. For better or worse, he wasn't sure. It was a choice that had been on his mind for quite a while now specially in these few moments of quiet. They managed to get away from the enemy and lead them away from their planet. They even managed to lose them but he knew not for long. His stalk eyes looked at the monitors and he saw no sign of them, only the tail-fighter like his own flying next to him. Now he needed to put his plan into action. It was risky and his chances of making it where he wanted were slim.
That was a risk he was willing to take. And still he couldn't help but wonder, would it be worth it?
(We are about to enter normal space,) he hard Alfar say, successfully cutting off his thoughts.
(It begins. . .) he thought, his insides felt as they were being constricted, and he could only hope he was doing the right thing. They entered normal space and were instantly surrounded by blackness, and ahead the looming figure of a giant red and dark brown planet. It had two moons and what seemed like dark blue oceans could be seen.
(Impossible. . .) the mesmerized voice of Alfar floated into his mind. It was enough to cause him to smile. He was sure this was not what the young warrior had in mind.
The moment did not last long as they heard an alarm go off inside their ships. Looking at the monitors he saw the ships that had been following them. He cursed. He had hoped they would have more time than this. Now their chances were even slimmer.
(Alfar, you must head into the planet!) he yelled as he grabbed the controls tightly.
(But my Prince, you cannot be serious!) Alfar cried out.
(You have to trust me on this Alfar! Its an order!) he didn't have time to convince him, and he didn't want him to die either.
He saw Alfar hesitate before accelerating just as the ships behind them began to fire, he could not disobey a direct order. Their firing was more frantic than before. He almost chuckled. He knew they wanted to finish them before they reached the planet. If they made it in they wouldn't follow. It would be suicide. He dodged as many shots as he could. They had to survive, they couldn't die here. Only a few more miles and they would make it. A hit landed on his ship and it shook from the blast, but only for a moment. He got it back in control and soon the giant planet loomed over them like a giant monster.
He managed to enter the atmosphere and his ship began to shake violently. He looked to his side to see Alfar had almost made it into the planet but they weren't safe yet. As if to prove his point a blast managed to hit Alfar's engine making his ship spiral down into the planet. His eyes widened as he saw his comrade spiral down into the planet's surface. His ship to began to began to shake more violently than before, the gravity was too strong! He couldn't keep it steady. Cursing he grabbed the controls tighter and braced for impact, hoping Alfar would make it.
(Brace yourself Alfar!) he hoped his thought speak would make it to him. Alfar's ship hit the ground, breaking apart and half burying itself into the ground.
He saw as the red and brown grass came closer and closer, his ship creaking from the gravity's pressure, his ship already a fireball.
Here it comes! He thought.
CRAAAACK
The impact sounded like a monster's screams as it fell to the ground breaking apart from the impact. His knees buckled as he fell forward towards the floor, hitting his head against it. He felt various parts of his ship disintegrate or break apart, his door being one of them. Light streamed in, blinding him momentarily, as he groaned in pain and tried to stand, but failing to do so.
He looked towards the door with an unfocused vision. He tried to drag his body which was almost impossible. His arms were far too weak and his lower body far too heavy. That's what we get for having four legs, he thought with dry bitter humor as he tried his best to get up. He managed to drag himself the last few feet and fell to the ground below with a thud and breathed heavily. His body was sore and he could not move anymore, he was almost sure he had broken something.
At least he was alive, and they would not be followed here. He looked up to see Alfar's destroyed ship ahead.
His vision began to shake and he knew he would lose consciousness soon. It didn't matter now, he was alive and was right where he wanted to be. With the right help he would be able to finally end the war that seemed to never end. He saw a blue blur up ahead. It was still and lifeless. . . Alfar.
Had he survived? Here he would need all the help he could get, even if it was only an inexperienced warrior. He moved slightly and another groan escaped him. His breath ragged, his eyes began to close and soon he could see nothing but blackness around him. All but one fact escaped him.
They were now in. . . Sanghelios.
Sanghelios is the Elite homeworld by the way. Sangheili is the actual name of the Elites and that's how I'll refer to them a lot.
Hope you liked it so far! I think this is a unique crossover and I'm looking forward to bringing them together since they were both interests that I've had since I was a kid.
Okay so on a final note, I need a beta reader. I wanted it ask on here so hopefully it can be someone that likes both Animorphs and Halo, and can help me out in regards on information I might have wrong on either fathom. So if you're interested and would like to help me out. I would greatly appreciate it! Let me know(:
