First time writing stories here and this isn't completely my own. I am just finishing the fight to LordCaldrin45's "Master Chief and the Order of the Phoenix" with slight changes (not for the first few pages) probably.

(Prologue)

It had been 2 years since the events that took place on the Ark. Two years ago, the Prophet of Truth had finally been killed, destroying the Covenant, which had nearly wiped out humanity. The Flood and the Gravemind, which had nearly destroyed the galaxy, had been wiped out when Installation 04B fired, doing massive damage to the Ark. Humanity had been saved, through the actions of countless heroes, such as Sergeant Major Avery Johnson and Commander Miranda Keyes, who had given their lives to save humanity. But none were as famous as Spartan 117, also known as Master Chief, a member of the Spartan 2s, an elite force of soldiers specially trained and surgically augmented to be the best, for any situation. With his closest comrade, the AI unit Cortana, Master Chief discovered Halo, which changed the shape of the war in an instant with the discovery of the Flood. Then, Earth was discovered. With the discovery of Installation 05, the Covenant experienced a period of turmoil with the Prophet of Truth's betrayal of the Elites. The Master Chief fought with the Arbiter to prevent the Prophet of Truth from activating all the Halo Rings, which would have wiped the galaxy clean of all sentient life. Master Chief stopped Truth, but at a terrible price, the sacrifice of Miranda Keyes. And once the Prophet was dead, the Gravemind made the ultimate betrayal and turned against his former allies. After rescuing Cortana from the Flood-infested ruins of High Charity, Chief, the Arbiter, and Sergeant Johnson attempted to activate Halo and destroy the Flood. Master Chief faced another betrayal when 343 Guilty Spark attacked him and fatally wounded Johnson to stop the ring from firing. Master Chief and the Arbiter barely escaped the exploding Halo before it fired on the UNSC frigate Forward Unto Dawn. The Slipspace portal to Earth collapsed just as the frigate passed through it. While the Arbiter made it back to Earth, Master Chief wasn't so lucky. His part of the ship ended up in an unknown part of space, all alone, save Cortana. With no escape seen in the foreseeable future, and his mission finished, Master Chief sealed himself inside a cryotube, and told Cortana to wake him, when she needed him. Now, the time has come. Master Chief is about to embark on a new adventure, with creatures and people that he's never known before. Now he's about to embark on the next part of his journey.

Thanks for reading and please feel welcome to criticize as long as it's helpful like lore and stuff or basic grammar mistakes.

Sidenote: this is LordCaldrin45's creation so check the original it's pretty decent but unfinished. I also changed the date to 2yrs because one the original story was written with a lot of pre rampant Cortana so I decided to do an quick fix by making it so that she's only 6 years old though rampancy will probably still happen.
