I OWN NOTHING except my ideas…

AN: Hello everyone welcome to my first fanfiction please be nice. there are several differences that i'm putting in to my fanfic and they are as follows

For Halo series

1. Cortana is given all forerunner technological knowledge from mendicant bias and becomes a metastable AI

2. Spartan-II's also have nanites that stop ageing along with traditional augmentations

3. Noble 6 is a Spartan-II and is master chiefs partner in covenant destruction

For ME series

1. Humans are #1

2 Krogan Have council seat instead of turians

Leah Pov

2552/1969, July 17 - Master Chief Petty Officer John-117 and Lt. Leah B-312 with AI Cortana were not having a good day, they were left behind when the slipspace portal closed on the UNSC forward Unto Dawn sheering the ship in half leaving them stranded and this is where our story begins…

Silence that's all there was. John, Cortana and I have just woken up on the edge of the ship looking at a familiar planet but something was different there was no sign of battle. "Cortana can you tell me where or when we are?" a couple of seconds past "well this is strange" Cortana responded with a concerned look on her avatar "we seem to be in between earth and the… we have an incoming ship designs match the Apollo lunar landers" my mind froze in its tracks

On Apollo 11 "um Huston we have a problem" said a nearly petrified Neil Armstrong "this is Huston what is your problem." "We seem to have a Giant alien war ship in our path… it just appeared out of some sort of portal." * Sound of the mic dropping * "hold on we are receiving contact over the radio patching through" 'this is UNSC forward unto dawn we come in peace' cheers erupted from mission control…

Time line:

July 26, 1969: John-117 and Leah-B312 arrive at mission control with NASA astronauts they were questioned, to say that they were surprised to find out the aliens were humans from the future would be an understatement. The Spartans then ask them to contact the US government and the UN

July 30, 1969: the Spartans appear before The US legislator and show some video data from their helm cams as proof. The US government instantly starts panicking and asks for advice on how to prevent this. The Spartans say that they will help but only after global unity.

August, 1969: the Spartans appear before the UN and share the same thing with the diplomats the UN building becomes quiet enough to hear a pin drop, all nations quietly come to an agreement, stand together and push for global unity and thus plans start to form the Human International Alliance or HIA and eventual system alliance

December, 1971: global unity occurs and plans begin being made to prepare for alien contact the AI Cortana is revealed before the newly created HIA and begins to give blue prints, schematics and other forms of data to the HIA and its scientists Cortana insists that they start with learning how it all works before building. Her advice is followed and scientists spend 5 years studying the data before atemting to create something

2080: humanity now has 100 stars under its control for harvesting giving endless resources all citizens are happy and thriving due to everything beingaffordable

2090: military starts to increase ship building due to the discovery of an alien artifact not in forerunner data bases the smallest ship in the HSA navy is now 4km while the largest is at 112km the total number of ships is well over 10,000 with at least 3,000 of the ships being 60 plus kilometers every ship is equipped with several hard light point defense weapons and for every 4 km of ships there are 2 rapid fire super MACs one on each side for defense they have titanium AA+ it has the ability to shrug off 200 super MAC rounds and shields capable of surviving a super nova

2091: HSA finally make a viable super soldier. They are called N7s they are ranked by the effectiveness N1 being 1/7 as strong and N7 being just as strong. augmentations are on average half as effective as the Spartan-II's and have no side effects john-117 and Leah-B312 are given total authority of these soldiers

2092: Cortana 'accidentally' leaks secret wedding photos of John-117 and Leah-B312 from 85 years ago public demands a public renewal of vows as does Leah.
