Pretty nice.

One note, Cpt. Del Rio is deposed as the commander of the UNSC Infinity at the end of Halo 4. By the time Spartan Ops takes place (6 months after Halo 4), Lackey is the new captain of the ship.

this....you have to account for the story that is taking place during Spartanops

this....you have to account for the story that is taking place during Spartanops

Spartan Ops is canon? You guys are right about Del Rio. I made a mistake with that.

But I don't apologize for High Charity. Bungie should apologize for destroying it before we got a chance to explore it better. I'm convinced it's not completely destroyed.

Hey Bombadil, have any ideas on the next Spartan Ops? They should do guest appearances on episodes, like imagine Ja Rule, Kim Kardashian or Rob Patterson just chillin around the levels.

 

[TheSeks]

There was a Halo 4? Halo 3 ended with Master Chief FINSHing THE FIGHT. If anything the Legendary Ending linked into Marathon. That's Halo 4. You're talking about that Marathon 2 is Halo 5, right? Right?

John-117 waited. The lights above him blinked and sparked out of the air. There were Covenant in the base. He didn’t see them, but had expected them now for years. His warnings to Lord Hood were not listened to and now it was too late. Far too late for now, anyway.
John was a Spartan for fourteen years. When he was young he watched the spaceships and he said to Franklin Mendez “I want to be on the ships Franklin.”
Franklin said “No! You will BE KILL BY COVENANT”
There was a time when he believed him. Then as he got older he stopped. But now in the space station base of the UNSC he knew there were Covenant.
“This is Hood” the radio crackled. “You must fight the Covenant!”
So John-117 got his plasma rifle and blew up the wall.
“HE GOING TO KILL US” said the Covenant.
“I will shoot at him” said the Elite and he fired the fuel rod. John-117 plasmed at him and tried to blew him up. But then the ceiling fell and they were trapped and not able to kill.
“No! I must kill the Covenant” he shouted
The radio said “No, John-117. You are the Covenant.”
And then John-117 was a Covenant.

I'd buy the shit outta this.

The Arbiter continues on through the antechamber, traversing through various grand rooms containing monuments and statues that belie the majesty of the Forerunner race. Several booby traps and puzzles keep him on his toes. This section of the game is meant to inform the player as well as challenge his intellect in a way that most other Halos failed to do. There is one puzzle that is hard enough that the player should certainly fail to answer it. When he does, a giant creature resembling a daddy long legs with a humanoid head will unfurl from the ceiling and try to kill the Arbiter. The Arbiter will have an advantage because the monster&#8217;s legs are so long it is unable to lean in to kill the Arbiter. However, it will call in waves of smaller spiders (it&#8217;s children) to try and kill the Arbiter. The Arbiter must kill the waves of smaller spiders and dismember the daddy long legs one leg at a time. Once sufficiently incapacitated, the monster thanks the Arbiter for ending his torment and gives him the answer to the question. Once the Arbiter makes it through this area he will come to the entrance of the library, an enormous gate that can only be opened with two markers. The Arbiter has only one and curses his fortune. However, from the depths of the shadows emerges the Prophet of Mercy, holding the second artifact/marker/key from High Charity. Furthermore, he is accompanied by the 12 Spartan IVs. They have been assimilated into the Flood. They will now become a major enemy of the game because their advanced strength and armor make them stronger than any other Flood form.

The game shifts back to the Master Chief. Having accidentally unleashed the Flood (again), and without sufficient weapons to fight them, the Chief beats a hasty retreat back through the tunnels, hoping to find someplace to barricade himself for safety. The Flood forms chasing him are unlike anything we&#8217;ve seen before. They are very tall and very thin humanoids. They are Forerunner flood, the first ever infected. And although their brethren Forerunners locked them away, they were worshipped as gods. The Apollo AI tells the Chief this from analyzing the glyphs they had seen earlier. The Chief ends up in a domicile built into the side of the tunnels. He uses ancient furniture to bar the opening. As the Flood forms try to break their way into the room, the Chief uses all of his strength to punch a hole in the wall opposite. Apollo tells him that there are hollowed out areas behind the walls. So, once the Chief breaks through, he enters into the darkened regions of the caves. This area is very moist. Rivulets of war drip down the walls and the Chief&#8217;s boots slap against the ground with every step. The narrow tunnel begins to widen and opens out to a promontory. Chief stands at the edge of the promontory and looks down to see a field before him illuminated by light coming through cracks in the ceiling above. At this point, the Gravemind initiates conversation with the Chief in its usual poetic tone. The Chief begins to hallucinate events during his training sessions with the other Spartans in his generation (as described in the book The Fall of Reach). He sees himself and the other Spartans performing combat exercises; he can hear Cortana&#8217;s voice echoing in the cave walls and then transitioning smoothly into Gravemind&#8217;s poetry. The scene below him changes. He can see his parents and himself a young child. At this time, the player is free to move around. The promontory has a pathway leading down along the walls and onto the field below. The Chief makes his way down to the field where his younger self and parents are beginning to diminish. Cortana&#8217;s voice begins a statement we&#8217;ve heard at the beginning of Halo 3. &#8220;Like the others, you were strong and swift and brave. A natural leader. But you had something they didn&#8217;t.&#8221; At this point, the voice changes to Gravemind&#8217;s voice. And the sentence continues. &#8220;Something no one saw&#8230; but me. Can you guess? Destiny.&#8221; So, instead of saying &#8220;luck,&#8221; as Cortana had said, the Gravemind establishes Chief&#8217;s significance as a matter of fate. The Chief notices the field darkening. He looks up in time to see Gravemind&#8217;s tentacles slithering down towards him. The scene ends.

The scene changes to Dr. Halsey. This is most likely a cutscene for the game, but I would prefer it if Halsey was made a playable character, if only for a brief while. Halsey is still trapped in an air vent in an attempt to evade capture or death at the hands of the Brutes. She decides that the ship is a lost cause and must be destroyed. Her attempts to establish communication with the Master Chief or anyone within the UNSC have all failed. She wishes to destroy the Infinity and make a bid to escape on a small cruiser ship or emergency pod. She finds a bomb in the cargo bay, arms is, and grabs the remote detonator. However, upon suiting up (space suit) and navigating stealthily through the ship (stealth element to the game), she is disheartened to see that the UNSC Infinity has arrived at High Charity. High Charity is a beautiful, sprawling locale. Despite being abandoned for years, the city is being brought back to former glory by the Brutes. The Brutes have enslaved the Unggoy and Jackals, who are worked to death in rebuilding the ruins. Grunts and Jackals can now be infected by the Flood forms. As Halsey, the player must traverse High Charity. This section of the game contains vertical platforming gameplay, stealth, and rescue operations. It turns out that many Sangheili hostages were acquired from the invasion on Sangheilios. The Brutes are systematically torturing and executing them at their pleasure. Halsey watches as Elites are made to kill each other in gladiatorial combat in an arena not unlike the Coliseum. The leader of the Brutes, Tartarus, sits upon a throne like Caesar and watches gleefully as his archenemies disembowel one another. Halsey finds a corral holding the Elites, both males and females and children, and hacks a terminal to free them. Arming themselves with weapons, Halsey and the freed Elites stage a coup to kill Tartarus and escape from High Charity on a ship. It is important to note that at this time, Halsey is completely unaware of the Flood&#8217;s existence. Her belief is that the 12 Spartan IVs from the failed mission were killed by the Brutes. Their attempt to kill Tartarus fails and many Elites die, but Halsey and some survivors manage to escape from the arena and head through the streets (or equivalent) toward a ship. Once inside, Halsey detonates the bomb on the Infinity and this creates enough of a diversion that they are able to fly away unchallenged.

Halsey&#8217;s plan is to fly as close enough to Earth as possible to establish a communication with the UNSC and alert them of the situation. The Chief is lost and the Brutes are becoming a threat. This part of the game can be a cutscene or a flying mission with ship-to-ship combat against Brute enemy ships. Halsey fails to contact Earth and decides on a hunch to fly toward Installation 03.

The game shifts back to the Arbiter. The Prophet of Mercy uses his artifact to open the Library. The Arbiter is escorted inside by the Spartan Flood forms. It is here that Gravemind tells the details of the creation of the Precursors. Long ago, Gravemind created the first lifeforms in the universe. They worshipped him as a god and lived alongside him as equals. They experienced no toil and no suffering; their technology was unsurpassed. When they died, peacefully, they were assimilated into the Gravemind. The next race of lifeformthe Gravemind created was the Forerunners. They worshipped the Precursors and deified them. However, they feared the Gravemind and believed him to be an abomination. Gravemind claims they were arrogant. Among them was the Didact. He attempted to destroy the Flood forms of his Forerunner Brethren. The Gravemind decided to unleash the Flood in full force among his living creations as punishment for their pride. But the Didact was successful in sealing in the Flood, for a time. The existence of humans came as a surprise to the Forerunners. They wondered who had created them. Was it Gravemind? A war was fought between Forerunners and humans. The Didact believed that the humans would unleash the Gravemind and doom them all. The Didact transferred his memories into another being, a non-organic being immune to the Flood. He later fired the rings from a safe location and ended Forerunner life to prevent the Flood, and Gravemind, from spreading.

Years later, the next race of lifeform, the Covenant, were fated to discover the rings and encounter the humans. Gravemind had waited 100,000 years to assume his mantle as god. The Arbiter doesn&#8217;t know what to make of the information. The Prophet of Mercy admits his failure and the failure of the Covenant to understand the true purpose of the rings, and the glory of the Gravemind. Of course, at this point, the Prophet&#8217;s mind is infused with that of the Gravemind, so it is unclear whose opinion is being expressed. This entire scene is told in real time as the player walks through the library halls, examining more glyphs and artifacts.

The game shifts back to the Master Chief. Gravemind finishes telling the Chief nearly everything the Prophet of Mercy was telling the Arbiter. The Chief refuses to believe it and attempts to extricate himself from the Gravemind&#8217;s tentacular grasp. Suddenly, AI Apollo sends a jolt of electricity coursing through the surface of the Chief&#8217;s MJOLNIR armor. The Gravemind is momentarily shocked and lets the Chief fall. Using thrusters, the Chief flies up and out of the cavern&#8217;s cracked ceiling and emerges in the desert. The Gravemind roars in anger, but the Chief is already tearing through the desert to head back to the ship in an attempt to send out an emergency beacon from the downed half of his ship. Because the ship is of alien (Brute) origin, the player must hack the system to get the signal out. Once this is accomplished, Apollo is able to establish contact with Dr. Halsey, who flies down to the Installation to retrieve John.

Meanwhile, back at the Library with the Arbiter, the Prophet of Mercy and the infected Spartans become aware of the Gravemind&#8217;s anger. The Prophet of Mercy claims that the Gravemind forgave him, and that he is also willing to forgive the Arbiter for his transgressions. The Prophet activates a wall, which slides away to reveal an ancient Forerunner ship. The Arbiter&#8217;s new task is to chase after the Master Chief. The Arbiter lies and agrees to do this so he can get on the ship and escape. As they begin to board the ship, the Arbiter draws out an energy sword and decapitates the Prophet of Mercy. The Spartan IV flood forms charge out at him, but the Arbiter briskly enters the ship and flies through an opening. As he is flying above the surface of Installation 03, he is attacked by other ships, flown by the Spartans. This part of the game is a combat flying mission, but the unprecedented agility of the ships should make it different than the kinds of flying missions in Halo Reach and Halo 4. Upon, destroying 3 of 6 ships, the other Spartans mysteriously retreat and the Arbiter is able to communicate with Halsey&#8217;s ship and set up a rendezvous point near the Chief&#8217;s downed ship.

Meanwhile, the game shifts back to the Master Chief. The Gravemind&#8217;s bellow awakens the large scarab beetles from the dunes of the desert. They are driven into a frenzy and attack the Chief. The Chief finds a Brute equivalent to an RPG inside the wreckage and stands atop the ship to fire rockets at the incoming creatures. After a few successful hits, the remaining beetles spread their wings and reveal that they can fly. The Chief uses his thrusters to level the playing field. In the mean time, the Gravemind is getting closer and closer to the ship. His main body is hidden beneath the sands, but his tentacles approach like snakes fondling the sky. The sands begin to shift and sink. A volcanic eruption from the mountain nearby was triggered by the Gravemind&#8217;s growling. The air fills with raining ash. Halsey&#8217;s ship arrives just in time to pick up the Chief, while the Arbiter arrives just as soon to provide cover fire against the Gravemind. The two ships fly out of the Installation and head for Earth.

They arrive at the Sol System and hail the UNSC but receive no response. Once they get closer, they realize that Earth&#8217;s outer defenses have been penetrated by none other than the Prometheans. The Prometheans have arrived in search of the Didact, their leader. They have begun composing the humans on Earth. From the other direction, High Charity erupts from slipspace and Tartarus&#8217;s voice is heard on the ships&#8217; radio. And just as soon as that happens, another Slipspace opens up and from it emerges a mysterious fleet of ships that look unlike anything seen before. It is the Precursors. They have returned.

The game ends like this, on a cliffhanger.

What about this character?

[Slightly Live]

In 2557, Jizzy 117 returns ta Ghetto n' is placed on administratizzle leave while a investigation is conducted tha fuck into tha events surroundin his 4 year absence from humanity, his breach of Captain Del Rio’s command upon rediscovery, tha significizzle of tha Didact n' tha Promethean threat, n' tha destruction of tha Ivanoff Research Station. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. By dis time, tha Chief’s status as a legendary all up playa has been solidified among most of tha UNSC yo, but here n' there is detractors like fuckin Captian Del Rio, whoz ass wish ta place blame on tha Masta Chief fo' his swashbuckling, reckless behavior. These muthafuckas argue dat Jizzy 117’s time away from humanitizzle n' his crazy-ass muthafuckin increasingly abnormal attachment ta tha rampant AI Cortana has rendered his ass incapable of struttin his fuckin lil' duties. His refusal ta obey ordaz has been cited as evidence of dis claim. With nearly all of his thugged-out lil' past associates dead (includin Admiral Hood), Jizzy 117 is publicly hailed as a all up playa but is privately discharged (honorably) n' encouraged ta retreat from military affairs.

Meanwhile, Dr. Catherine Halsey is hittin dat shizzle hard on freshly smoked up data uncovered by tha Ivanoff Research Station crew. Their last transmission before bein "composed" by tha Didact was a encrypted data set detailin holy artifacts most likely located on High Charity, tha movin capital of tha now fragmented Covenant civilization. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. Peepin tha eventz of Halo 3, High Charitizzle was transported away from tha Sol System n' designated a quarantine unit cuz of ongoin Flood Infestation (from tha eventz of Halo 2). Da holy artifacts is believed by tha researchers ta be markers/keys dat will help unlock certain barred areaz of Installation 03, includin tha Library. Da UNSC hopes ta learn mo' deetz bout tha Didact n' tha Prometheans from data stored on tha Halo.

A crew of twelve Spartan IVs is deployed ta High Charitizzle ta locate tha artifacts n' retrieve them. Despite Dr yo. Halsey’s repeated requests, Jizzy 117 aint involved up in tha program, not even up in a advisory capacity. Da Spartan IVs is under tha command of Captain Del Rio of tha Infinity. Durin tha course of tha journey tha fuck into tha dark, infested cornerz of tha abandoned hood, tha Spartan IVs lose contact wit tha shizzle n' is slowly separated from one another by pocketz of infestation. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. One Spartan manages ta make it tha fuck into tha Throne Room, where tha Prophets resided durin council. In tha darkness, he findz a indented palm print up in tha wall, indicatin dat some kind of compartment can be activated n' opened by a Prophet’s hand. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! Suddenly, from tha dark corner of tha room, a voice breaks tha silence of space. Movin tha fuck into tha light, tha figure reveals itself ta be… tha Prophet of Mercy (who supposedly took a dirt nap all up in tha end of tha Halo 2). But he’s not intact. Da Prophet’s corpse has been infected by a Flood spore. Dude has become conduit of tha Gravemind. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! Da scene ends, wit tha playa assumin dat tha final Spartan (the playable character) is ghon be capped.

Captain Del Rio n' tha Infinitizzle fail ta reestablish contact wit tha Spartans on High Charity, n' it be assumed dat they is MIA. Da mission is disavowed from tha recordz n' Captian Del Rio is demoted. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! Meanwhile, Dr yo. Halsey pleadz wit tha UNSC ta allow her a crew wit Jizzy 117. Biatch is desperate ta know tha detailz of Cortana’s rampancy. Biatch also believes dat Jizzy 117 is tha key ta findin tha artifact. Da UNSC finally bendz ta her will, afraid dat further inaction on they part could result up in a Promethean invasion.

Meanwhile, Jizzy 117 lives a thuglife of seclusion on tha outskirtz of Germany (or some place, it don’t straight-up matter). His war scars have left his ass virtually handicapped. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! Without his MJOLNIR armor, he is decrepit. But his bodily damage is not a god damn thang compared ta his crazy-ass menstrual state. Dude had been connected ta Cortana so long dat his dome is sufferin from severe withdrawal symptoms: migraines, auditory n' visual hallucinations, delirious thoughts, etc. Jizzy aint up in any capacitizzle ta reenter service. Dr yo. Halsey arrives ta coax his ass tha fuck into helpin tha UNSC wit a vital mission ta retrieve tha artifacts from High Charity. Biatch was under ordaz not ta divulge any details regardin tha previous failed mission. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. But her ass drops some lyrics ta Jizzy anyway. Jizzy begins ta recite Gravemind’s poetic statements. Halsey’s similaritizzle ta Cortana triggers a episode. Dude descendz tha fuck into a cold-ass lil conversation he had wit Cortana nuff muthafuckin years before, while they traversed tha narrow hallz of High Charity. Halsey notices this, n' fears fo' John’s sanitizzle yo, but her ass don’t say anythang cuz her ass knows dat John’s involvement up in tha mission be a imperative.

There is only one other thug kickin it whose involvement up in tha Covenant Wars can help tha UNSC complete they mission: tha Arbiter. After tha Covenant Battle ended, tha Elites returned ta they home ghetto. Right back up in yo muthafuckin ass. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! Diplomatic affairs wit tha Elites remained a shaky proposition, n' tha apparent losz of tha Chief dissolved any possibilitizzle of a longstandin thang between tha humans n' tha Elites. Da Elites whoz ass participated up in tha war against tha Brutes n' tha Flood considered Jizzy 117 ta be da most thugged-out formidable warrior of tha human race, n' tha only one worthy of they respect. When tha Arbiter returned ta his home ghetto, he was appointed they first leader up in a long-ass time (since tha Prophets had reigned fo' nuff centuries up until dat point).

Da Chief is taxed wit recruitin tha Arbiter n' returnin ta High Charitizzle ta retrieve tha artifacts believed ta be hidden there. Dr yo. Halsey has also axed Jizzy ta look tha fuck into tha disappearizzle of tha twelve Spartan IVs whoz ass went missing. Biatch surreptitiously injects Jizzy wit neuroleptics ta keep his ass stable fo' as long as possible. Dude is refitted wit his oldschool MJOLNIR armor wit some freshly smoked up additions ta his thugged-out arsenal. At dis time, Dr yo. Halsey has decided not ta pair his ass wit a freshly smoked up AI fo' fear of tha side effects. When tha Masta Chief arrives all up in tha Sangheili home ghetto, known as Sangheilios, his thugged-out lil' presence is kicked it wit wit aggression n' confusion yo, but when tha Elite leader (the Arbiter) is informed of his thugged-out lil' presence, tha warriors stand down. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. Durin dis portion of tha game, tha Chief n' by extension tha playa, is exposed ta tha Elite culture. Da Arbiter drops some lyrics ta tha Chief dat his comin was somewhat well-timed. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! A few months ago, ancient Forerunner shrines built on Sangheilios fuckin started ta quake, n' tha animal thuglife of tha hood fuckin started ta behave erratically. Massive disturbizzlez caused cave openings ta break open near tha shrines. Da Chief n' tha Arbiter n' a squadron of Sangheili warriors head up ta tha caves ta discern tha nature of tha disturbizzle.

Within tha caves, tha crew encountas violent creatures somewhat similar ta tha monstas from tha film "Pitch Black." Da creatures have signz of Flood infection; however, there is no spore forms. Within tha depthz of tha caverns, they discover a lake of liquid methane, n' up in tha center of tha lake, a lil' small-ass Forerunner structure. Disturbin tha lake awakens mo' creatures, dis time amphibious flood forms dat rise outta tha methane. Da Forerunner structure gotz nuff a ancient logic puzzle meant ta test tha one whoz ass activates dat shit. A seriez of thangs is axed n' tha user must answer erectly ta unlock a cold-ass lil code. Incorrect lyrics is kicked it wit wit mo' wavez of creatures n' earthquakes dat threaten ta collapse tha cave ceiling. Da compartment gotz nuff a ancient artifact (which will later be used ta open up freshly smoked up areaz of installation 3. At dis time, tha Chief is unaware of tha artifact’s purpose. His only goal is ta appease tha Arbiter so dat they can go ta High Charitizzle n' investigate tha disappearizzle of tha other Spartans, as well as find whatever tha researchers is lookin for.

Upon returnin from tha cave wit tha newly found artifact, tha Masta Chief n' tha Arbiter discover dat they hood has been invaded. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! A battalion of Jiralhanae ships dot tha sky n' mazillionz of Brutes rizla down on smalla cruisers toward tha surface. Shocked by what tha fuck he is seeing, tha Arbiter goes berserk n' tears forward wit his warrior guard. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! At dis point tha playa skits as tha Arbiter. Da Chief skits a assistizzle role. Da playa must navigate his way toward his thugged-out lil' palace all up in tha top of a ancient tree (think Kashyyyk architecture). Da Arbiter wishes ta save his wild lil' gang from tha Brutes. Most blinginly, his son, tha heir, must survive. But when he gets ta tha palace, what tha fuck do he see, biatch? Tartarus. Tartarus is kickin it, though somewhat chizzled. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! Dude appears ta be infected by tha Flood but his thugged-out lil' personalitizzle is mo' and less sound. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! Da Arbiter’s ho n' daughtas lay dead on tha floor of tha throne room. His lil hustla is on his knees. Tartarus, tha Arbiter, n' Jizzy exchange a gangbangin' few lyrics. Then Tartarus personally decapitates tha Arbiter’s son. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch.

Da Arbiter roars wit rage n' grief. Dude lunges forward ta avenge his wild lil' gang but is beaten down by half a thugged-out dozen Brutes. Da Masta Chief be also incapacitated. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! When they come to, tha Arbiter n' tha Chief is on a shizzle headin toward some unknown location. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. They is up in chains (or future equivalent). All hope seems lost when Dr yo. Halsey establishes communication wit tha Chief n' informs his ass dat tha UNSC Infinitizzle has been overrun. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. Da Chief drops some lyrics ta her dat he is imprisoned. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! It be at dis moment dat Halsey decides her ass must do somethang drastic. What tha playa didn’t know was dat Halsey had implanted a newly pimped AI tha fuck into tha Masta Chief’s cortical input. Biatch had decided not ta activate tha AI unless tha situation straight-up demanded dat shit. Biatch do so now, nahmeean, biatch? AI Apollo (makin moves name) introduces his dirty ass ta tha Chief n' straight-up revamps his HUD system.

Apollo be a highly experimenstrual AI up in dat it can rework tha Chief’s operationizzle memory ta give his ass reflexes n' game he’s never honed before. There is limits ta dis dat I haven’t thought of yet. Needless ta say, Apollo helps tha Chief hack n' disengage tha locks. Jizzy frees tha Arbiter n' they dispatch of tha ship’s crew. But fuck dat shizzle yo, tha word on tha street is dat by tha time they make it ta tha cockpit of tha ship, a gangbangin' familiar voice echoes all up in tha shizzle n' sendz it careenin tha fuck into space. It be Gravemind. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! Dude is kickin it n' growin up in power. Da game takes on a thugged-out darker tone at dis point. Gravemind has resurrected oldschool foes ta haunt tha Chief n' Arbiter. Dude sendz tha shizzle toward Installation 03 n' breaks it up up in atmosphere. Mimickin tha end of Halo 3, tha Arbiter n' tha Jizzy is separated by two halves. Installation 03 has propertizzles similar ta tha hood Venus, so it aint filled wit lush chronicwildlife as nuff other halos were. Instead, there is dust storms n' tall mountains dat stretch they shadows across tha desolate orange/red landscape. When tha Chief comes to, he sees Cortana standin before him, not up in her usual transparent blue hue yo, but as a real, solid biatch. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. Dude has a lengthy conversation wit her bout tha weather n' then bout gangstas n' they treachery n' insignificizzle. Cortana begins ta shimmer n' strutts away beneath a thugged-out dune. Apollo jolts tha Chief back tha fuck into coherence n' attempts ta establish a cold-ass lil communication channel wit Halsey. It be unable ta do so. Halsey is holed up up in a air vent somewhere on tha Infinity. Brutes is scourin tha shizzle up in search of humans. Back up in tha desert, Apollo predicts dat a oncomin sandstorm will tear everythang on tha surface apart n' dat tha Chief must find shelter somewhere underground. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! Da local animal thuglife consistz of giant carnivorous scarab beetles. Apollo detects a highly concentrated heat signature from off up in tha distizzle, n' tha Chief headz off up in hopez of findin a place of hide. When he gets, there, he sees dat tha heat signature is comin from a straight-up deep pit (think tha pit up in 300). With tha razor sharp storm howlin at they backs, tha Chief takes a leap of faith tha fuck into tha darkness.

Da game shifts ta tha Arbiter. Although he is on tha same stupid-ass Installation as tha Chief, tha scenery around his ass is much different. Dude has crash-landed up in a valley deep within tha tallest mountain on dis Halo. Da peaks surroundin his ass is capped wit snow n' vines trail from tall trees all around. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! Da sky above is blocked up up in places by canopiez of leaves. Strange wildlife inhabits tha area, includin mosquitoes tha size of birdz n' big-ass elephant-like creatures wit nuff grills. Da Arbiter can hear Gravemind’s disembodied voice recitin iambic poemz of events dat is eons past. Dude vocally vows ta destroy Gravemind n' a rasp of laughter booms all up in tha air up in response. Without any AI ta accompany him, tha Arbiter be alone ta travel around tha area up in search of some way out; he has tha artifact from his home hood wit his muthafuckin ass. Dude findz moss-covered structures dat may be Forerunner structures yo, but is straight-up different than what tha fuck we’ve peeped up in previous Halos. After cappin' a shitload of tha aggressive wildlife, tha Arbiter bigs up a river, expectin ta find a openin yo, but instead, tha river has led his ass ta tha grill of a mountain, n' it disappears within a cold-ass lil closed-off opening. A terminal near tha bank of tha river interests his muthafuckin ass. Dude bangs tha artifact tha fuck into a slot, n' tha terminal begins ta drop a rhyme aloud ta his ass yo, but it is up in a language he cannot understand. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! Dude curses up loud n' tha terminal registas his fuckin language n' begins ta ask his ass logic thangs. Upon answerin these thangs erectly, tha grill of tha mountain will slide open, revealin a thugged-out dark cave. Da Arbiter enters.
Da game shifts back ta tha Chief. Dude has landed nuff hundredz of feet below tha surface of tha hood, n' is kicked it wit wit tha sight of a interconnected seriez of passageways dat is lit by Forerunner tech. Da walls contain nuff pictures dat tell tha rap of tha universe n' tha Forerunner civilization. I aint talkin' bout chicken n' gravy biatch. Da Chief encountas what tha fuck step tha fuck up ta be livin quarters, left perfectly preserved fo' whoz ass knows how tha fuck nuff eons. Dude goes on further n' begins fuckin wit mo' hallucinations. Apollo’s voice distorts n' soundz like Cortana’s. Nonexistent enemies run toward tha Chief, promptin his ass ta fire bullets n' waste ammo. Apollo tries ta stabilize tha Chief by administerin logic thangs. At dis point, tha playa can activate lil minigame dat can help aid tha Chief up in regainin sanity. This helps ta make tha game less tedious. With tha Chief’s ammo wasted, he is forced ta menstrually train up in martial arts combat rockin Apollo’s applications. Although Jizzy is well-versed up in martial arts, his thugged-out age n' body deterioration have forced Apollo t make adjustments so he can conserve juice. This, too, can give playas somethang ta do beyond tha typical shooter fare.

At some point up in his wild lil' fuckin exploration of tha tunnels, tha Chief comes across royal tombz of tha early Forerunner kings. Glyphic stories on tha walls depict tha kings as godz yo, but above em be a thugged-out depiction straight-up similar ta dat of Gravemind. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! A shriek soundz off from somewhere deep within tha caves. Phat, slitherin black creatures (think Aliens from Aliens) mount tha walls n' claw they way toward Chief. Dude must bust hand ta hand combat ta bust a cap up in them. When he gets ta a cold-ass lil closed-off door, tha Chief is kicked it wit wit mo' logic puzzlez n' a hand scanner fo' unlockin a big-ass door. Dude doublez back ta tha tombs n' breaks off tha hand of a mummified ruler. Dude solves tha puzzle n' activates tha hand scanner. Da door opens. Behind dat door, tha Chief cannot peep all up in tha impenetrable chronicfog dat cloudz tha ghetto beyond. Y'all KNOW dat shit, muthafucka! A single Flood spore skittas toward his wild lil' foot n' he crushes it wit his boot. An inhuman growl echoes from beyond n' both tha Chief n' Apollo realize dat they’ve done cooked up a funky-ass big-ass mistake up in unsealin tha door. Gravemind’s disembodied laugh rings all up in tha tunnel.

Da game shifts back ta tha Arbiter. Da Arbiter has entered tha cave openin n' sees dat he has found tha antechamber ta tha Library. Da interior of tha mountain opens up around his ass ta become a vast, expansive cavern (think Minez of Moria). A long narrow struttway done cooked up of stone rather than light (as up in previous Halos) suggests dat these structures is far olda than em of tha other installations. Tall statues redolent of Egyptian art stand up in rows on either side of tha struttway. Their arms hold up tha cavern ceilings n' they legs descend down tha fuck into darkness. Gravemind begins ta drop a rhyme again, up in iambic verse, spittin some lyrics ta a rap of how tha fuck thangs fuckin started n' his thugged-out lil' posizzle within tha universe. Da Arbiter argues wit his ass but findz his dirty ass unsure of what tha fuck ta believe. Gravemind fronts dat he is tha daddy of all thangs, includin tha Forerunners.

Halo 5 » by Bombadil
Hey, I was thinking about Halo 5's plot yesterday and decided to write up a brief treatment of something that I'd like to see. Any inaccuracies within the plot concerning canon material are likely due to my ignorance of all the material of the Halo universe. It's a bit long but I plead with you guys to read it and tell me what you think.
