2/26/18 UPDATE: I have decided that I will tell this store up until the siege of the Northern Water tribe at a minimum. Keep an eye out in the next month or two for part 2 which will bring the story up to the Souther Air temple, to be followed by Part 3, Part 4 and probably a Part 5.

I began writing this story years ago, in 2012 I think. I know I began writing it before the release of Halo 4, so be aware of that. Not entirely sure what compelled me to post the first part of it now, but I've had a bit of an itch to write and I figured I can satisfy it but continuing this story. Though, having reviews and words of encouragement or disapproval would aid me in my decision to continue writing it.

I consider myself extremely knowledgeable of both fandoms. That being said you will notice I took a number of… liberties… with the Halo side of things. I didn't want to write about primary characters of the universe, hence my making of new characters for the story. At the same time I wanted the story to begin firmly within the Halo universe because I believe it had more reasonable plot devices in it to make this crossover viable.

I have the lion's share of the stories big plot points worked out in my head and I can tell you now that it roughly follows the canon Avatar story line; 100 years war, missing Avatar, comet coming blah blah blah. I always though, how cool would it be if there was an ONI operative who was part of the Gaang, who had access to a UNSC warship in orbit. So I made that story. Part 1 is posted as of 2/22/18 which contains the first 10 chapters. I have two chapters written for part 2 but still need work and I want at least 8 or so chapters (~30,000 words) to make up a part. So if I feel encouraged after sometime that part 1 is up, I'll finish part 2. And If I still feel encouraged after part 2 I'll write part 3, and as many parts as I need to tell the story.

Please be honest in your reviews. Writing to me is a fleeting fancy that I use to tame my overactive imagination. It will not damage my opinion of myself if you have constructive criticism or negative things to say about my story. Enjoy
