You wanna know the truth, agent404, (besides the Covenant wanting to destroy all of mankind) when I started writing, I asked my friend what city it should be in. L.A. was his answer. Besides, they could just glass Earth, but they didn't, so maybe something is on it that the Covies want, like on Reach and in Cote 'de Azur. But who knows. (In my book, they won't be looking for a rock or anything. Maybe a MAC generator thats underground or something.)

So who wants more? I warn you, chapter 3 may be a little boring to some, depends on who you are. But chapter 4 is a quick mission breif and then a bigger battle.

For those of you anticipating more of the story, I will TRY to get more tommorow. Until then, well I don't know. Maybe I'll put the Prolouge in with chapter 1 so look for an update on that.

Each Halo novel took me a day a peice. It's a decent story but it had alot of work to go to be worthy of publishing. Real authors don't edit once or twice, they edit dozens upon dozens of times. Then again, I'm not a real author. Looks like you could have one work of art if you actually dedicate yourself to it..so don't give up and don't think its finished just because you wrote the last chapter.

How can i get ahold of derricks story so I can catch up and tell whats going on a little better? Are you going to elaborate more on the technology side of things? Like more military weapons? What exactly blew up guilty? Other than that it was really good and kept me enthralled and continue reading throughout the story. That one guy was right the chapters were kinda short; you know the kinda books I read.

Yay! Guilty spark blew up! This most be the best story ever!

Seriously though, it would still be good even if Guilty spark didn't blew up. (It's just a nice bonus.)

Good writing!
(I wish I could write... Especially in english...)

Patience, GreenChief, patience. The chapters do get longer. And you must be a slow reader. I finished The Fall of Reach in... umm... 4 days. Or maybe it was 5.


Wow, I read all of the books in about 8 hours....but I've always been a speed reader.

BTW, these chapters are really good, keep it up.

It's Dwire's books you're thinking of and you can PM him about them by going to My Settings, look on the right side and click People Finder and search for m43sniperrifle, and send him a message, if he checks it, he could tell you. (tell him who you are when you do.)

Alright everybody, listen up! No matter your opinions on this, I am changing some of my book. Chapter 2 will no longer be what you have read. But don't worry, the Monitor is already dead. He died in m43sniperrifle's book which is before mine. This is kinda what happened: A massive battle between human, Covie, and Flood going on outside, 343 flees into a structure, a Scorpion driven by DePascale crashes in and blocks his exit, Fisher in another Scorpion comes from opposite direction, 343 is between them, they both fire at the same time and heavily damage 343 but not kill him. Fisher and DePascale stand over 343's near lifeless corpse and are about to finish him when Dwire, thought to be dead, enters adn stops them and says, "Let me finish the bastard." Dwire shoots 343 in the face with his modified sniper rifle, killing him. That's somewhat the way it is.

it always seemed to me like the forerunners were a peaceful race until the flood came and they were forced to fight or something

Alright I'm back again. My computer is -blam!-. Like the Monitor. I am working on typing what I've already written. I might, MIGHT post more of it here, depends on if I can get a working computer or not. Until then, play Halo.

Thanks. As for more gory, here is a small preview of another battle in the book.

The Cobra fired its cannons at the Ghosts. The lead Ghost and its driver desintegrated from a direct hit. The Ghost on the right flew into a building and exploded in a blue-white flash. The Elite had been thrown from his craft so hard that he slammed into the wall and was flattened against it, sending a splash of purple blood all over the street below. The Ghost on the left flew back into the group of Jackals. It rolled, lost a wing, and smeared a dozen Jackals across the road. The driver, which had also been thrown off, had half of his face as a purple streak on the asphault.

Yes, the Cobra is a tank I created to replace the Scorpion. It has two 120mm cannons and two 70mm machine guns. It looks a lot like the Scorpion except it's longer, it holds 2 extra passengers, it's a little slower but makes up for it in fire power. It's cool.
