Halo-Star War Crossover
Title: Back to War
Rate: M, to be safe as there will be cussing and actions.
Disclaimers: I do not own Halo or Star War. Halo is own by Microsoft, Bungie, and 343. Star War is own by George Lucas and BioWare. Oh yeah, and there will be few elements from Halo War, so I do not own Halo War as Halo War is own by Ensemble Studio and Microsoft. I do not own Starcraft as Starcrafts are own by Blizzard. Yes, there will be very few elements from Starcraft such as Yamoto Cannon and others, but in sense of similarity. Honestly, I'm not making this story for profit, just for fun.
Warning: My grammar is shamefully suck, so please bear with me.
Summary: Since the end of Clone War and end of the Republic as well as birth of Galactic Empire aka Imperial with Darth Sideous being emperor, Darth Sideous decided to expand the power of Imperial and sent couple Venator-class ships to explore far out of outer rim. By dumb luck, a group of Venator-class ships found the Omega Halo ring, the last of Halo rings. While the Imperial ships were investigating the Omega Halo, two different groups of ships appeared, one from the UHS and other from the CAS. At first, the UHS and the CAS ships sent several transmissions and warnings. However, the leading ship of Imperial group ordered his group to attack both the UHS and CAS ships. His order backfired as both factions fired back and nearly wipe all the Imperial ships…The war between the hungry Galactic Empire and two factions, the United Human System and the Confederation of Allied Species have begun..

Chapter 2: Unhappy Soldiers
USMA-CAS
It has been a week; since the CAS has allowed the USMA Navy fleets to travel through their space, without suffering the consequences. Now, the Marines and the ODSTs can be seen doing their daily routines, from cleaning their weapons to workouts, that's all they can do, while in their assigned ships. According to the CAS Intelligence, the Imperials have sent another fleet to attack Heligio, one of CAS-controlled planets that's home to Sangheili, Kig-Yars, and Huragoks. The Imperial Fleets will arrive in few days, thus the USMA have enough time to gather the ships and only sent two groups of ships, 40 ships each. Each group has 6 Marathons, 12 Destroyers, and 22 Frigates. They will arrive at Heligio in day or two, meaning the CAS ships will have to hold off the Imperial ships.
Day before both Alpha and Bravo Group heading to help the CAS ships…
On board of one of Frigates in Alpha Group call Dull Swordfish, several comments and grumblings can be heard.
"So we seriously going to help them, Confederate aliens?" "WHAT?" "Why Confederate aliens need us as part of reinforcements…" "I can't wait to put bunch of bullets into them so-called clones." "Is it true that the Imperials use clones as army?" "I must keep calibrating my sweet Carolina, so she can rip them clones apart." "Pssh, hey. That guy is creeping me out. He kept calling his Auto-Shotgun Carolina." "Bah, relax. There's nothing wrong with calling guns some name." "Yeah, man. Guns are our best friends." "Wonder if clone bastards do orbital drops like us and the CAS?" "Who care? We're going there and help the Confederate aliens to kill off Imperial clones." "Wonder what's like to be on planet that's home to Jackals and Elites?" "It's Kig-Yars and Sangheili." "Whatever."
Indeed, the Marines and the ODSTs are busy and preparing themselves, before going into cryosleep, while few of Marines and ODSTs will be doing 'security guards' duty. While the USMA soldiers and the crews were preparing and being busy doing their, the speakers throughout the ship come to life, causing people to stop and listen.
"Attention, Dull Swordfish. Captain Keynes would like to make an announcement." said the female voice. Second later, deep male voice can be heard.
"Thank you, Vista Vida. Attention! Admiral Garvis would like to make an announcement. I strongly advised you all to listen what he has to said." Said Captain Keynes' voice that's coming out of the speakers throughout the ship. People on ship stopped and listen with curiosity and for good reason as Admiral Garvis usually doesn't make speech very much as Admiral WIthertone.
Suddenly, the different male voice can be heard.
"Men and women of USMA…Defender of the UHS…Since the Great War ended 125 years ago, we and the CAS have been keeping to ourselves, minding our business as we stay out of their space and they stay out of our space. Until, the ruthless newcomers have appeared…" People in both Alpha and Bravo Group muttered, but the speaker continued. "We and the CAS have performed the First Contact Protocol, however the newcomers were not interested and have, without any warning, fire at us and the CAS…" The people on the ships muttered angrily as the speaker continued. "After they fired and retreated as we wiped out most of their fleet, we and the CAS have sent our diplomats to their supposedly capital of their system…Men and women of USMA…After several unprovoked attacks and the death of our diplomats, we and the CAS are going to war against the Imperials. That will be all. Admiral Garvis out." With that, the speakers went silent, leaving people muttering with excitement, anger, and other things.
Back on Dull Swordfish…
People were about to go back to what they were doing, after Admiral Garvis's speech was done, however the speakers come alive. Once again, people paused as voice of Captain Keynes come out. "Attention, crews and soldiers! We have now received the new rule of engagement. As part of the USMA-CAS agreement, we and the CAS will not fire at each other as we and the CAS are temporarily allies. Attempting to harm the CAS will result several harsh punishment, so I strongly advised you watch your fire. The CAS will have the same rule of engagement and their soldiers will suffer the same consequences, if they made any attempt to harm us. I repeat, the CAS is our temporarily allies. That will be all. Captain Keynes' out." The speakers have gone silent and the people went back to what they were doing, though some of the Marines, along with the ODSTS, can be seen with disappointed look on their face.
"New rule of engagement?" "We can't accidently harm them?" "They for real? Us? Allied with Confederate aliens?" "Confederate aliens would probably stab our back! Just watch! I bet the Confederate aliens going to accidently kill one of us!" "Cool it, Private! You are borderline on being charge with insubordination!" "Heh, I bet the Confederate aliens are having fun, if they truly have the same rule of engagement as we have…"
CAS
On board of Hunter's Sword, Assault Carrier-class ship that's commanded by Shipmaster Dhel
The last comment, made by Marine, is actually opposite as some of CAS soldiers can be seen with disappointed and frustrated look on their face. After the announcement from their Shipmaster Szar, several outcries can be heard.
"Temporarily allied with the humans?" "Bah! I bet they would kill one of us and make it look like an accident!" "So much for spilling their blood with my sword…" "Does it mean we're not allowed to eat them?" "Minor! That's enough! Report to Staffmaster for cleaning duty!" "What?" "This is embarrassing. If the humans see us like this, they would probably laugh at us." "Humans? Try our shipmaster. He would make us suffer!"
In Shipmaster Dhel's room, the Sangheili sat on his chair, sighing as several outcries can be heard, voicing how disappointed they are, after they heard about the new rule of engagement, where the CAS cannot harm the USMA, while the USMA cannot harm the CAS. Shipmaster Dhel sighed and shook his head. "This going to be a long year…With us and humans being allied against the Imperials…" Indeed, the war against the Imperials will be tough as indicated that the Imperials use clones, in their all white armor, as their military forces and seem to be numerous. "Hmmp! They are just some cowards who use clones as military…At least; the humans have more honors than the Imperial scum. But how can this be? A different branch of humans in different universe! And it appeared that they use laser weapons, while the humans here use mostly kinetic weapons. Interesting…But again, I do not care." With that, Shipmaster Dhel decided to sleep as he will need it before his ship, along with others, reach to Heligio.
CAS
On Heligio…
Heligio…Is there one word to describe the planet that's home to Sangheili, Kig-Yars, and Huragoks. It would be plain as there's nothing special about Heligio as it surprisingly similar to Earth in term of atmosphere, if you was to look at Heligio from space. Unfortunately, Heligio is currently preparing for the incoming invasion of Imperial fleet. Due to nature of Hyperspace, the Imperial Fleet have to make several jumps as hyperspace is linear, while Slipspace is non-linear. Thus, the ground forces and the ships have enough time to prepare and they will need all the time they can as tomorrow, the Imperial ships will arrive. Many Sangheili and Kig-Yar soldiers wait eagarly as some of them are anxious to test their skills and technology against the Imperials. One way another, the blood will be spilled and Heligio will be in ruined. Tomarrow, the Imperials have better be prepare to face the defenders of Heligio and suffer the wrath of the CAS.
Author: Well, readers? What do you think? Sorry that there's no action. But never fear as the next chapter will be about the ships at Heligio will face against the Imperial ships that are coming to Heligio, since it has plenty resources that can be used to make whatever Darth Sideous want.
Is the soldiers' reaction to new rule of engagement believable? Or plain ridiculous?
By the way, I have fix the some mistakes. Corrected Millenium Hawk to Millenium Falcon. And the destroyer-class ships have been changed. Also, I added few things in CAS military chapter.
