Hey Clark I'm not sure if anyone mentioned this yet, but with the release of Chapter 19 you officially became the proud owner of the longest Halo Fanfic around.

Congratulations are in order I suppose.

Really?

Geez I woulda thought there'd be a ton of stories longer than mine. I've only been around the Halo fanfic for about 8 months.

Oh well, let's hope I can continue to galvanize the Halo world into writing longer and more in-depth stories.

Random information:

Chapter 19 - 782 views since it was released.

That's nuts.

I think I better get started on Chapter 20 now.....

24 chapters along with off topic crap. Has Sir's story ended??? I think this fan fic deserves the sticky, just because its not filled with off topic crap unlike the other fan fic i have seen around in the forums. Yo Clark, how many pages do u have on this story total??? not in the thread but in the actual story.

thats in the thread though. I want to know how many pages it would have if it was a real book. Like if it was writin in a novel like the fall of reach. For example the fall of reach had 340 and First Strike had 340 too. So is the fan fic gona surpass in the lenght??

Well, I just copy-pasted it straight from fanfiction.net into Microsoft Word and without any edits it came out to being 204 pages long. That is to say, including all the spacing Mr. Clark adds.

I must say, it is turning out to be a spectacular story. You will make a great professional some day. :D

Pheyww...
I finally made it to read latest chapter.

I am greatly amazed, for this (theory) about Prophets being Forerunners experiments.
Also I saw something arabic in that Forerunner when it struck Truth and his companions, but what amazed me most was that Johnson is gettin' emotional.

I've always thought that he's the cold-one , hard as a rock that doesn't cry for losses and fights always with fury.
But now he was worried about Jan, and depressed for all those marines that died because of him. Just something new.

Last question. Does Ackerson have any S-III's left somewhere alive that could be used on battle against Flood?

Being a professional, and writing at a professional level are two different things.

Mr. Clark writes at a professional level, yes, no doubt about that, but he is not yet a professional. He said he was writing an original novel, so when that gets off the ground, then yes, he'll be a professional.

He watches every Hodgetwin video they put up...on ALL their channels. He calls them the Hodge Triplets, and considers himself the 3rd triplet. He's started talking and acting like them now. Every other line out of his mouth "Thaaas some BULLLLLL**** maaayne" or "Gotta make dem gainzzzz". He calls his biceps "gains". When he eats post-workout, he talks to his biceps, "Don't worry gains, I'm feeding you. Daddys gonna feed you, gainz *kisses biceps*".

... Have y'all noticed something strange? The Halos seem to not actually be what we've always thought. Halsey, whose only goal is to further the Human race, is supposedly offering to set them off. The Forerunners somehow survive the first blast, the High Prophet of Law manages to survive as well. Sensing a pattern? I think there's more gray to the Halos than we all think... Perhaps even more than the Monitors know.

Once again, Mr_Clark, thank you for a simply amazing chapter. It just keeps getting better!
And, thanks for the PM notification, I know that must take a lot of time for you and konoka (sp?).

Read my post again,
I wasnt even talking about the thread, i was taking about the story itself. Someone stated that he had the most chapters, i was simply saying that another person had 24

I was curious so I opened up each document and added it all up. Minus the Author's Notes and such, it comes to about 213 pages.

What font/size? I copy-pasted straight from fan-fiction and got 204 with author's notes. Interesting indeed.

On a completely different note, Uberdawg, I think you're forgetting that this is only a fanfic. Don't worry, happens to me too sometimes. Mr. Clark's writing is just that good. :D. The Halo's are what we always thought they were, just not in Mr. Clark's version of the Halo world. ^^

Finally read the new chapter and I was not dissapointed!
This chapter has everything! It was definately worth the wait!
The forerunner seems awsome. I can't wait to see what happens to Truth.

So many questions..........

Its a S - E - C - R - E - T !

I used unofficial means, extra things if you may...........Yeah I used Chapter 20 in that equation. See! I am working on it!

I've been terribly busy though lately. Terribly terribly terribly. So unfortunately I am having to reduce writing time by a lot. There won't be a month wait though! I'm not so cruel as to do such a thing once again.

There's also a whole slew of PM's waiting for me to respond too.

Oh you guys and your questions...

Excellent work, Clark. But I hope that the Chief gets along with his new friends, and they catch that sonofa-blam!- Ackerson.

The human race on the brink of extinction, sounds like your typical bad tuesday.

Ackerson is quite annoying, I wholeheartedly agree. Unfortunately he is intregal to later elements of the story, so we need to bear with him for now.

One thing I always wanted to see was a confrontation between Dr. Halsey and Ackerson. Their rivalry was mentioned, but we never really saw it aside from singular thoughts and pointed remarks to others.

Who knows, maybe that's something we can all look forward to.
