*SPOILERS*
Ok, four Spartans survived the book First Strike. Three with the Master Chief and one with Dr. Halsey. The three Spartans alongside of Master Chief, headed to Earth to inform UNSC High Command that the Covenant have discovered the location of Earth and have amassed a huge fleet with one purpose, cut the Humans off at their homeworld and mop up the remnants that may be left. And that's where the book ends. Ok, we can conclude that the Covenant have already arrived at Earth before the Spartans could warn them, judging from the Announcement Trailer for Halo 2. This opens up an option for the Campaign in Halo 2.
I think that Bungie may have made it so that three Spartans survive and go to Earth with Master Chief, and that reason is Four player Co-op mode. I know, it may sound a little out there but it's a possibility. Or, it could mean that it's just normal 2-player Co-op and the second player gets to choose between the other three Spartans to play as (I would choose Fred). And each Spartan has a role to play in Halo 2 cutscenes. I know this is a little out there but that is my deduction.
What do you guys think?
