Hello boys, girls, and Grunts! This will be my first (But not last) FanFiction for Halo! I hope that this is easy to get caught up in, and I won't run out of ideas! Let's get started.

Chapter 1: Introduction to the Madness.

I sat in my 8th period Science class, slowly dying. Not because of any alien attacks, that comes later. No, ladies and gentleman, what was slowly killing me, rotting my insides, was boredom. I could FEEL my I.Q dropping as Mrs. Addleman walked about the room, helping people with their work. My friend Jhonathan sat behind me, and I was turned talking to him, because we had finished our work about twenty minutes ahead of the rest of our class.

"Oh my god, can you BELIEVE her?" I sighed, watching Emily gossip with her friends. She may not LOOK to bright, but she could outwit anyone and out punch most of the guys. She was talking to Cheyene when she saw me looking over at her, amazed she could look back at her friends to talk and still have perfect handwriting while copying notes off the board.

"Hiii Joshyyy!" She called across the room at me, turning my face red at the nickname. Cherokee looked over, drawn by the promise of annoying me further. This was commonplace by now, and it drew a gin to my face to see them so eager, even if it WAS to annoy me. J.T also looked over to me, but didn't say anything. THAT surprised me. He normally called at me in the halls, the Cafeteria, and even the restrooms. It was new to have him be so quiet. Even disturbing. Anyways, back to Cherokee.

"Hi Chris!" She called, waving franticly, even though I was sitting right across the row from her. That was her nickname for me. Chris. Don't ask me where she got that name out of Josh, but I kind of liked it. I only got mad about my nicknames when people outside of my friendly circle called me by them. Except for Sassquatch. Everyone called me that. Seeing as how my last name is Sass, I stand six feet three inches, and have dark brown hair; it wasn't a shock to me to have people call me by this tag. It was better than my REAL name, in my opinion. There are about fifty Josh's in my school, but only ONE Sassquatch. It allowed me to stand out, which led to my brand of sarcastic humor.

I sighed heavily and dramatically, than looked over to the two girls who were now grinning from ear to ear at me. "Hi, guys." I said in mock exasperation. They laughed, knowing it was all in good fun. I leaned back in my chair, smiling. A very small atomic explosion then rudely interrupted my happy thoughts of how it was almost the end of the school day, as well as screaming as two Elites stepped out of an Inter-Dimensional Loop Hole [I.D.L.H] at the front of the classroom.

CLIFFHANGER! Gonna go get Vaccinated against the flu, wish me luck!
