"You know the subject, time to type."

Mine would be the Master Chief blowing up Halo and flying towards the Se7eN Covenant cruisers, beginning the First Strike.

I really hope they make that game.

PLEASE DO NOT SEND ME GROUP INVITATIONS

The Halo REACH Script (post thoughts in thread)

Writing Lead of Whisper Studios. Check out Heron!

Look... I'm on bungiepedia!

From here:

Fade in from black.

0031 Hours, September 7, 2552, Epsilon Eridani System, Planet Reach, Highland Mountains, Mount Menachite, inside a second Unidentified Alien Structure

Medium: Five Seven-foot-tall Spartans, these all in identical Mk V armor, crowd around a golden pedestal, which looks similar to the one encountered by S259 and his Betas. With the Spartans is a female wearing a lab coat: Dr. Catherine Halsey. They are located in what seems to be a smaller and enclosed version of "the Core" from the previous mission "Revelation." This pedestal is noticably smaller than the one under Asterion. Above the pedestal hovers a fist-sized crystal, tapered to a point at each end, glowing sapphire-blue.

Extreme close: focus on the crystal as facets along its center-line shift around like a puzzle. HALSEY's hand reaches for the crystal, and she grabs it. The crystal dims. She pulls it off of the pedestal.

Close: the crystal in her hand now flares red. The Spartans' shields shimmer, then return to normal.

S104: Radiation spike. Analysis says lots of neutrinos, but I'm unable to determine the type-- it's something not in the computer's database.

HALSEY peers into the crystal as it returns to its sapphire-blue color.

HALSEY: Is it safe now?

S104: Seems so. But Doc--

Extreme Close: focus on HALSEY's face as she interrupts S104:

HALSEY: No time for debate. Neutrino radiation will penetrate the rock between us and the surface.

Extreme Close: Focus on S087 as she speaks.

S087: They'll be able to get a fix on our position. All they need is three ships to triangulate. We need to get out of here-- fast.

Close: focus on the group entire, clustered closely together.

S039: Which way? Back the way we came, or deeper in?

S104: There's no way out from the titanium mines under Menachite Mountain. So we go deeper.

An explosion rocks above, deep thunder rumbling. Instead of getting quieter, it grows exponentially louder. The Spartans shield HALSEY and turn to the ceiling.

Medium: the Spartans, now looking up, notice the source of the noise. Their shadows lengthen as white light shines into the room as the holograms above shimmer brightly, then fail. S104 spins HALSEY around so that she faces away from the blinding light.

Medium, angle up: an orange splotch appears on the ceiling of the dome.

Close: focus on the orange splotch. The stone ceiling melts and peels back as if it were thin plastic hit by a blowtorch. A lance of plasma shines through.

Long: focus on the Spartans looking on as the plasma torpedo splashes across the ground five hundred meters from their position.

Close: focus on the group of humans.

HALSEY: What was--

S104 interrupts her.

S104: Energy projector. Only the big Covenant ships have them. There's got to be one of them--

S104 stops when the shaft fills with bright purple light, sparkling and shimmering across the cloud of dust.

S104: Grav lift incoming! Isaac and Vinh, take our six. Will, you're with me on Doctor Halsey. Kelly, find us a way out. Now!

The Spartans all go their separate ways.

Extreme Close: focus on S104 as he looks at the lift as a dozen figures float down.

Cut to black.

Medium, tracking: focus on the gravity lift. A dozen Elites float down, one of them standing two heads taller than the others, and clad in silver armor. The Elites land at the bottom of the gravity lift, in a fifteen meter deep ditch created by the plasma lance.

Close: focus on the Elites as they stand under the crater. Tracer rounds from the Spartans fly over head. The massive alien speaks to the others, all with their attention on him.

XYTAN: Brothers! Hope is not lost!

The Elites grunt in approval.

XYTAN: The Demons ahead are in posession of the Shard of the Oracle! Take them alive!

The Elites all roar in approval, and then move to walk up the edge of the crater.

Medium: the Elites climb up the side of the crater, led by XYTAN in the front. They start to rush across the greay floor, dodging and shrugging off human projectiles. They activate their energy swords.

Close, angle up: focus on XYTAN's face as he runs for the Spartans. Behind the Elites, a dozen more Covenant warriors and a Shade turret lower down. A slow and heavy drumbeat should begin now, the only noise besides the orchestra of combat. XYTAN snarls, then roars angrily.

Cut to black. The drumbeat continues for three more beats after the screen goes black, now the only noise, and then it stops abruptly.

Main Protagonist ends up in space, drifting or in a ship, like all the other games, lol.

I think a really cool ending would be something like Halo wars where a Protagonist sacrifices themselves to save everyone else, but I havnt read any of the halo books so i cant come up with anything more creative :P

I am flatterd that you botherd to look at my signature.

Johny Jimbo puts his hand on a swich and says..good by clowns. he pulls the swich opening the air lock and releaseing the clowns down on the covenant. the covenant are overwhelmed because they have no sence of humor..so Johny Jimbo says with twinkle in his eye: time to make dah cupcakes! then it ends with epic techno music...

To MLG Cheehwawa;

EPIC!

I haven't noticed your script in quite a while. Nicely done, I might add.

YOU'RE STILL ALIVE?!?

The first cut scene from Halo 1 in completely updated graphics.

WARNING: SPOILERS FROM GHOSTS OF ONYX BELOW!





The screen fades in to show the group of Spartans and Dr. Halsey in the shield world. Dr. Halsey looks up from her data pad. Her head moving reveals something on the pad. The pad displays a distracting "Slipspace rupture detected" warning. She signals to the other spartans to look up, at an abnormal phenomenon happening within this mysterious "Shield World." A ship, with half of it's front-side missing, clips right through the outside of the dyson sphere, and makes its way, crashing towards the surface.

Most of the spartans simultaneously gasp, as they see the UNSC insignia on the side of the ship.

Fred says,"That's impossible, right?"

Halsey replies, with a hint of shock in her voice,"It's supposed to be, but I know close to nothing about these forerunner spheres. It could be hypothesized that there is only one dyson sphere, but with multiple entrances in a way."

Kelly replies," So what you are saying, is that that ship didn't come in through the same way we did, but it managed to end up in the same dyson sphere?"

Halsey lets out a long breath,"Yes, there have to be many more planets like onyx. The forerunners had to have multiple ways to fall back from the rings activating, so why not create this dyson sphere, which is like a planet, but within slipspace itself, and with as many entryways as possible, so they could congregate and rebuild within the sphere."

Fred replies,"So, there might be forerunners in this dyson sphere, including whatever was in that ship?"

Halsey removes her reading glasses and strokes her hair gently,"That would be my best guess."

Kelly gives the age old spartan two-fingers-across-the-faceplate-gesture,"With all due respect ma'am, finding out what ever was on that ship could give us some indication as to what is going on here, we've been waiting around for days for something to happen,"

Halsey stands up and puts her glasses back on,"Permission granted, as long as you slow-up every once in a while for an old bag of bones like me."

Fred shakes awake the younger SPARTAN-III's, and issues orders,"Form up, move quickly and quietly, due North-East-East, expect anything SPARTANS, move out!"

The camera pans out to reveal thousands of miles of wildlife, lakes, forests, and mountains between them and the crash site of Master Chief's ship, obviously giving the impression that they may never find him.
