Chapter 1
The Master Chief
John, a.k.a. Master Chief, looked out across the green plains of Earth and the craters of destruction. After the incident on Halo, John had made his way back to Earth. Having saved Earth from the Flood and obliterating an entire Covenant Armada, the Chief was put in charge of the section Captain Keys used to cover. Still, he insisted on being treated like a regular Spartan solider instead of a Captain. He still wore his MJOLNIR armor, the same one that he wore when on Halo, and still fought with the same stamina, power and intelligence. The Covenant, an alien race that has the most powerful army known in the galaxy, had somehow found the coordinates of Earth and was beginning their attack. The welcome wagon had ambushed the first group of Covenant to land on Earth, but the fight was still tough, and there were many casualties.
"Sir," a marine called from behind him, "Our indicators show that six more Covenant drop ships are about to be dispatched and are going to landing in sector nine."
The Chief grunted, "Send units three and four to greet them and send sniper squads on the roof to take out the enemy."
"Yes sir."
"One more thing private."
"Sir?" The marine asked,
"Ready my weapons, I'm heading in with unit three."
"Yes sir." The Chief had stood and watched his marines fight, and watched some die. He was tried of standing around and barking orders, he was entering the battle.
On board the Covenant vessel Pathogen of Death, The Elite named Zuka 'Zamamee looked at the Prophets at the head table. Prophets were the highest rank of aliens of the Covenant race, but never fought. They wore large, complex head piece set with gemstones and wired for communications. A silver mantle rested on his shoulders and supported a fancifully woven cluster of gold wires which extended forward to place a microphone in front of their bony lips.
"There has been report of a soldier on this planet with special armor." A Prophet said,
"According to our files," another Prophet said, "This human is responsible for over two thousand deaths of our army, and was the sole survivor from Halo."
"Also responsible for the death of an entire Covenant Armada." The third and final Prophet said.
"By himself Excellency?" the Elite said in surprise,
"We believe this human has special armor that is surpassing that of our own. We need this human disposed of."
"Not to be rude Excellency, but what makes you think I can comprehend such a feet?"
"We will provide you with the most powerful weaponry, a fairly large unit to control consisting of a small number of Grunts, a large number of Jackals and Hunters and five other Elites."
"That sounds good enough!" The Elite exclaimed, "Thank you Excellency!" He bowed and began walking towards the end of the room when a Prophet yelled to him,
"Stop!" 'Zamamee turned around and looked at the Prophet, knowing there was a catch, "You'll be leaving now."
The Master Chief looked across the sky at the six drop ships that the private had said about, land in sector nine. The Marines awaited the Chief's mark to attack. Master Chief waited until the drop ships were out of range of their large plasma cannons, which could rip the Marines into shreds. When the drop ships were away the Master Chief tossed a grenade into the group of Grunts and when it exploded the Marines attacked.
"Snipers," The Chief radioed in, "Give them hell."
"You got it Chief!" and Elites and Hunters began to fall. An Elite with a different kind of plasma weapon aimed at the direction of the snipers and fired. One of the snipers screamed over the intercom as the plasma blot his him square in the face.
"Shit," The Master Chief thought, "they've got sniper guns now." He slung his assault rifle and pulled out his pistol and activated the x2 magnification and fired at the Elite's back. He had emptied a clip into the Elite and its shields flared and died and a sniper took finished him.
Zuka 'Zamamee didn't expect an ambush and his units were being slaughtered, he radioed in for evacuation and the large U-shaped ships came flying in and began to provide covering fire for the troops. 'Zamamee was about to enter when he found his shields dead, and he was shot. The side of his head was blown, but was still alive. A Grunt named Yayap saw the whole thing and somehow managed to pull the Elite aboard and the ships were off with the remaining survivors.
The Marines gave a cheer as the ships flew back into space, and the Chief had a sense of relief. They later returned to base camp and rested their. The Chief was lying in bed with his suit of armor cleaned and standing in the corner of the room. He tossed and turned as memories of Halo raced through his mind. He was awoken by a voice that said, "Not getting any sleep eh?" He sprang from bed and saw a holographic figure on his T.V.
"Not very much Cortana." He replied wiping some sweat from his forehead.
"Why not? You did very well out on the field today. You should be proud."
"It's just..... The past."
"Oh." There was a moment of silence and Cortana continued saying, "We did what we had to do. Sacrifices have to made sometimes Chief."
"I just wish we wouldn't have to."
Suddenly there was a large beep that came from Cortana. "I'm picking up strange energy readings coming from the south of here. It seems about ten maybe eleven, kilometers away from here."
Master Chief got up and said, "Well, assemble a team. "We'll go check it out."
