There'll be no Flood in ODST. The Flood don't arrive until the Floodgate level in H3. ODST takes place during Halo 2s timeline while MC is on Delta Halo.

I was in 5th grade. I popped in the Halo CE disc into the massive, clunky first generation Microsoft Xbox, and wrapped my small hands around the controller that was almost too big for me. Little did I know what I was getting into.

10+ years later, I still look up to my childhood hero, Master Chief, while everyone talks about He Man and Spongebob haha

Nope, Bungie already dismissed it and the Halo plot line doesn't allow it. ODST is set in the middle of Halo 2 basically and the Flood didn't show up on Earth at all until the middle of Halo 3. Thus, no Flood.

Actually, the plot makes it unlikely, not impossible.

It's possible that ONI could have Flood samples contained within a secure facility such as ONI Alpha Base. It's just so ridiculously unlikely that if that were to occur it would seem contrived and like it came out of left field.

I'll stick with Bungie on this one and doubt that the Flood will be in the game, but by no means is it impossible. It's one short explanation away from being pretty plausible.
