Excellent. If I were a woman I would come on to you skip. Also was that ensign from something? The whole thing seems slightly familiar.

Good eye. Try to match her physical description with prominent characters in the Halo universe. But I refuse to confirm or deny any names you put forth. Either figure it out for yourself or wait for me to reveal it in the story.

Black Chapter, for all religious and political debate that doesn't fit in the Flood.

The Fan-Fic you're thinking of Locklear is Mr. Clarks, You'll find it on the first or second page i presume..

Hehe.. Probably Miranda... though she doesnt really look 40 in halo 2 (come on... do the maths, shes gonna be at least 21.. 19 years til Halo 2...) in fact, she looks a lot more like 30...

Ah well..

this is awesome, it's really great stuff. you should send it OrbitBooks(that's the one that publishes the HALO books). oh and you should add another main character to follow, like the whole chief and cortana thing(just a suggestion).

1557 Hours, September 15, 2525(Military Calendar)/
Epsilon Eridani System, Unknown position around Reach Military Complex DZ 17, planet Reach
These rough drops were getting to be too much. This was the second time in a row he had had a flashback after hitting the ground. Puller had shaken Simmons out of his reveille, only to reveal they had no idea where they were. The four Marines grouped together and headed to the nearby tree line. When they got there, the tree to Dominique’s left splintered. “Sniper!” Simmons shouted, and they retreated further into the forest.
“You two check the area,” Simmons whispered to his non-coms. “Okay Puller, what do we know?”
“Nothing boss. We could be anywhere on Reach’s eastern hemisphere. And apparently we’re being shot at. I’ve never been shot at before Cap. Not for real anyway. Who could be shooting at us on Reach…” The concept seemed to get at Puller deep inside and Simmons noted he might just break from the strain.
“Let’s not worry about who, let’s worry about how we’re gonna get out of this. How can we find the rest of the unit?”
“We can’t, but if they’re smart, they’ll find us. Fiurah’s with them boss, and when they don’t find us, they’ll regroup and try to get some info. Chances are the Commonwealth’s bridge noted the error and informed units on the ground. They probably have a better idea of where we are then we do. Like you said, the important thing is to get out of here alive.” Puller had been sweating profusely and almost hyperventilating. It was his first real engagement; he didn’t have the luxury of experience like the rest of Simmons’ men. Then Simmons saw him steel himself, as his training kicked in he stopped worrying and focused on survival. Good thing he had the chance to come to grips with enemy fire while the only life on the line was his own.
“We’re clear for now boss.” Dominique was only at his best when others depended on him, and Simmons was certainly depending on him now. “There’s some kinda building over though. I think it’s an abandoned comm facility.”
“It seems like our best bet so far. How far is it?” Simmons was eager to get in contact with his superiors. This was not the way it was supposed to be. An unknown shooter on Reach was extremely bad news for the UNSC. And yet it wasn’t the sniper that bothered Simmons, he felt something darker was out there. It was the same thing Dr. Halsey was dreading when Simmons looked in her eyes lately.
“Two klicks boss.” O’Donnell didn’t thrive on pressure, but he always came through. Simmons was actually quite calm. Now that Puller had settled in, he was confidant this group would be enough to get him through anything, much less a single shooter on Reach.
“Move out.”

First off, i must say that this fanfic is the best thing that I have ever read...period! I signed on to Bungie, just so I could respond to to this fanfic. I haven't really had previous knowledge about the history of Halo, but I must say that I have been drawn in by your originality Rainman. Here is a little background on how I came across this fanfic: I was originally looking for Halo artwork on Bungie and stumbled across this forum instead...I was, regretably to say, lost during the first few chapters because I was unaware what augmetation was and some of the weapon names were. I usually played Halo and Halo 2 with my friends and that was pretty much the only experience that I had with Halo was what I had played. This fanfic does a fantastic job at bringing out the history of Spartans which has made this a very successful story. I haven't really got too much into the Halo novels, but I must say Rainman, you could make a living doing this with the right connections. Your fanfic brings out many of the answers that I would never have received had I not read this, it brings out how Master Chief and his armor evolved from in Halo 2. I know I will probably be ridiculed for posting this, but oh well...it's like Halo, sometimes you own, sometimes you get owned. Either way, life goes on...
In order to not get Rainman another lock-up warning, let me get back on topic...I just wanted to share my story on how this changed my whole perspective on, not only the game but the history that is invovled with it. Now, the only thing that I think that could also help to get you to that 300+ page novel is a little more depth with some of the events that has already occured...Such as when Simmons was going in-flight to Reach (I think is what it was), there was another character introduced before take-off and then they were at their destination, with nothing important in between. Some events like this could involve a little more detail and the usual grammar, but other than that this story is amazing...I'm not trying to sound like I want you to write to please everyone else, because like others have said, this is your fanfic and you can write it however you feel. I wish the best of luck to you on the rest of your novel and I'll be trying to wait as patiently as humanly possible for the next installment of "The Forgotten Spartan."

hmmm this is quite a good little story i read it all before i have posted this.. but i must say even if it is a good story it could always get better. i am a MASSIVE reader and my mom is a librian (cant spell for future notices) and i know a lot about writing and this you should add more detail for one. but not only detail, but detail that adds some imagery so you can "paint" a picture better for us all. and also when you leave a chapter on a cliff hanger. you shouldnot only leave it on a cliff hanger but there should be some suspence with the cliff hanger for example like when you wrote that little story about the sniper guy. when you ended that it was PERFECT cause not only was it on a cliff hanger but it was also a good one cause you said something like ths. " he was about to start on grunts when he heard a twig snap behind him." that was really good. personally i think that thing was a almost perfect writing.
