Ch: 1 A new Beginning

Note: this is a story of what would have happened if the human race was made part of the Covenant I hope you enjoy it R/R.

Nothing was left... What was once a world of beauty now stands a world of darkness. Earth was now just a round rock, not being able to sustain any life at all. Another example of the power the Covenant had...

30 years had passed since the end of earth but with it did not come the end of the human race in stead they where absorbed by the Covenant and made part of them. Problem that came with this is that they where the lowest species in the Covenant caste system. Not only that but a new generation of humans is born and are now well in to the there late teens and twenties with out the knowledge of what they once where. Any human that was born before this generation was exterminated erasing what ever past the human race had. All that is left are humans that are there to serve with out the knowledge that freedom was one there's.

The Elites saw the humans as pests but they dared not oppose the prophets and risk being killed. Even if the humans where pest to them they still had somewhat a kind of respect for them. Humans being weaker than Elites naturally by speed and strength they still had something that many of the Covenant warriors did not have. They are warriors and would fight anything that would threaten their lives or there people. When cornered they would not coward in fear like grunts or jackals they would stand up and fight till the last breath. Desperation made humans even more stronger then combined with hope and the instinct of survival it made them either equal or more powerful than the Elites them selves. But the pride the Elites had would never allow this truth to come out to them they where the perfect warriors.

The way the Prophets viewed the humans was very different to that of the Elite counterparts. To them the human race was a threat to their power and greatness. They believed that if the human race was left undisturbed for another century there power might of surpassed the Covenant. They had to be taken care of before this would become true. The humans are unique. They don't have the same intelligence that an engineer has but they did have creativity and curiosity, which powered their motivation to move on. How the humans had advanced so far in so little time with out any guidance made the prophets worried. Most of the Covenant technology is based on the technology of the Forerunner race. What would have happened if the humans had obtained this technology before the Covenant had acted? Mixed with the amazing technology and their creativity and curiosity they would have become unstoppable. The prophets allowed the human race to survive but ordered there breading immediately. The second the new bourns where born the prophets ordered the elimination of all adult humans except for the few that where put to care for the young ones.

But in there are still four humans that where allowed to live in a matter of speaking. They spend their lives now in cry tubes never to reawaken again. These humans are the last of the old UNSC warriors. They where the last remaining Spartans. Now stuck asleep only to be viewed and examined from far away by the Covenant scientific caste. For them to even be revived it would mean total chaos for the Covenant.

The human race now lives on in their new place in the universe and this is there story. How well it end is their decision...
