Sup guys, Lighting Wolf here, back with another story. This one is about Halo. Enjoy the 600- word chapter. I don't own Halo, 343 and Microsoft do.

4 SDV heavy corvettes joined up with the rest of their fleet. 20 CRS light cruisers, 16 CPV class heavy destroyers, 8 CCS class battle cruisers. All of this was led by their flagship, a RCS class armored cruiser as the 49 warships entered the Coelest system, home of installation 05. Many brutes inside the RCS class cruiser also known as Broken devastation walked throughout the ship.

"It as Chieftain Decessus spoke of. Ready the weapons and target Solemn Penance, we must destroy the fools on the ring before they light it!" A Brute Minor said as the fleet readied itself for combat, another Brute Minor walked into the control room of the cruiser and bowed.

"Chieftain, the damned ring you spoke of is here. We have launched the first assault wave towards the temple as you requested. Our pack brothers only require the order to engage the Prophet's carrier." The Chieftain looked down as his armor clacked slightly.

"Fire, brother. We must wipe this ring clear of the Prophet's slaves. So, say I, Decessus, Chieftain of the Betrayed."

3 Type 25 Spirt dropships descended through the clouds as Devastation followed. 60 Brute Minors and 30 Grunt minors spilled out of the dropships as they took cover near the temple.

"Chieftain, we have spotted the humans. They engage Truth's forces, we may slay the followers of Truth." Each brute held Either a Type 52 Mauler pistol or a Type 25 Spiker as the Grunts carried Type 25 Plasma pistols.

"Engage them, I don't want the Humans dead. But if it comes to that, Brother, you have my permission to slay them." The Brute Ultra nodded and roared as the Brutes opened fire with their weapons, spraying the air with needles and hot metal.

"What the hell!? Covenant reinforcements in the bush!" A Marine said as one of the Brutes executed an Elite Minor with his Mauler.

"Wait! They don't seem hostile…. Yet. Let me speak to one of those Brutes first." Cortana said as the Master Chief raised his battle rifle, Cortana flew over to the Brute Ultra in a haze of blue light as the Jiralhanae looked at her.

"Hello."

"….. Hello." The Brute tried not to become angry at his 2 fallen Brothers.

"So, you're here to tear Truth to pieces." The Brute growled.

"We are here to destroy the Covenant and all that would follow the Prophet's lie. We are the Betrayed, soldiers that were left to die by the damned Prophets!" Cortana grinned.

"Then I think we could work something out." The Jiralhanae looked up as 2 of the Type 52 Phantoms belonging to the Betrayed flew overhead with Type 26 Banshees following them, all clad in the black and blue colors of the Betrayed.

"I'm listening, machine."

Another Spirt landed 25 Grunt Minors, 2 Type 25 'Choppers' and another 5 Brute Minors. The Betrayed followed on foot after the Chief's Warthog.

"There's another structure up ahead, Truth has forces in it and my scans show the building controls a bridge." The Brute Ultra nodded.

"Betrayed, destroy the Covenant fools!" The Brutes and Grunts of the betrayed opened fire as the Elites and Grunts fired back. Several Elites collapsed in a pool of blood as the Betrayed Grunts fired their Plasma pistols towards their Covenant counterparts. The Brute Ultra looked over as the Chief walked in and finished off the last Covenant troops.

"We will assist you where we can, but our Chieftain orders us to find another route." The Brute Ultra said as Cortana nodded.
