Chapter 2: Into Hell
Master Chief and his fellow soldiers were falling down the crevice into darkness. They had been staring at the face of death and death was laughing right back at them.
"Wait! Which part was damaged? Maybe one of my bots can help repair it!" said one of Nergul Engineers.
"Well, the engine is shot down, the generator is fried, and the right wing is damaged. If you can fix that then we might have a chance of surviving this mess." replied Johansson.
"Thanks Johansson. Chief, permision to fix this piece of shit?" said the engineer.
"Permision granted. Now go and fix this piece of shit. But, for now" said the Chief turning his head to the Marines. "Once, and if we do fix this ship, where are we gonna start? We don't even know where the Library of this planet is."
"Well, the structure and placements of key buildings on this Halo is much similar to the Halo we were on. If my memory serves me right, the library should be at 568 degrees N, 907 degrees E. Inside the swamp. Be warned, I have detected lifeforms that are unidentified." said Smith
"Could it be the Flood?" asked the Chief.
"No sir. We have a record of all the Flood in this baby and in all of the UNSC computers. We need to keep those for future references." replied Smith.
"This is strange. This would also pose a serious threat considering that we don't know anything about these.... whatever the hell they are. We must be careful when we are going into the Library."said the Chief.
"May I join in this conversation?" Cortana stepped in. She had been put into Kelly's, Master Chief's old friend and fellow SPARTAN who died on Reach, body using the Nergul's technology. "Possibly, we could take one of these creatures as a... what's the word I'm loking for. Umm..... a 'prisoner', if you will. We could take tests on it and study it's structure and possibly lea-." she was inurrupted
"It's too risky. They migt have some sort of device that they can use to call reinforcements. I say we bomb them and study them while they're dead." said the Chief.
"That seems that it'd work. I'm not entirely sure about this but, let's give it a shot!" said Cortana. The engineer and his bots came back.
"I'm sorry guys but, I've fixed the ship! Now lets get outta this hell hole and get to wherever the hell we're supposed to go!" cried the engineer in joy.
"Good, now we can get back to the mission. Johansson, get us outta here." Johansson saluted Master Chief and followedn his orders. "Now." said the Chief."What to do about this new threat. We might need to call our reinforcements."
"Good plan Chief. I'll call main HQ and call for more SPARTANS." said Cortana. "Big Nest, this is Ghost. Do you copy?" siad Cortana. There was nothing but the eerie hiss of static and silence."Big Nest, the Chief requests more SPARTANS on Beta Halo ASAP. Do you copy?. Big Nest! Nothing. Just static and silence." said Cortana.
"Dammit. We could've used that extra help. Doesn't matter. What matters is that we find this Alpha Forerunner. Now, let's get to the library and get this whole damn thing worked out." said the Chief. They flew off into the distance. The Chief looked out the window. It looked so familiar to Halo. The resemblence was striking. He could almost relive the nigtmare that was Halo. Soon, they had finally arrived at the swamp. Master Chief remembered this. The place where it all went wrong. Where the Flood had come from. There were no signs of life anywhere except the plants.
"Ready the weapons Johansson." said the Chief. They saw some buildings on the nearby mountains. They flew over there and found the life they were searching for. Luckily, they weren't seen. They landed at the base of the mountain and got out. The scaled the gargantuan mountain. Although it took only 30 minutes, it felt like 30 hours. Finally, they had made it to the top. What they saw had shocked them. They unidentified lifeforms were SPARTAN soldiers......
