So Halo 4 will definitely be heavy in Forerunner, and as it seemed at the end of Halo 3 and the trailer for 4 Master Chief is entering a shield world. Maybe the shield world that the spatans traveled to through Onyx?

Here is my guess for the plot of Halo 4 and the new trilogy.
DO NOT TAKE THIS AS ANYTHING BUT MY GUESS!!!!

MC who was left on the very edge of Human explored space. He did not make it through the slip space portal completly and now awakes from cryosleep as the Forward Unto Dawn is entering a Shield world. The Shield World which was conected through a portal to Onyx, the training grounds for Spartan 3s. Once through MC discovers the Surviving Spartan 3s, Kelly, Dr. Halsey, and Mendez. The Spartans debrief MC on the situation and their location, they also tell of a new threat and enemy.

The Spartans tell MC of the other intelligent beings that are unknown by either the covenant or Humanity that have been living on this world for centuries. These beings are direct ancestors of the Forerunner, but unlike the original forerunner of the past who gave Humanity the gift of reclaimer these Forerunner see Humanity as just another virus and a plague on the universe. To them Humans are nothing more than another flood.

The surviving Forerunner have watched as Humanity and the Covenant species spread across the universe and polluted and plundered thousands of planets and moons leaving much of the universe barren. They have also seen the Humans overcome both the covenant and the flood. The Forerunner assumes that humans plan to dominate all space and will spread like a disease. They know the Humans history from data gathered by monitors like Guilty Spark and others. They know of Humanities wars, Human V Humans wars sicken the Forerunner. The Humans must be destroyed by any means necessary and the forerunner will not wait any longer. They once thought that the Human Covenant War would wipe out both humans and the Covenant, but they were mistaken. The Forerunner will not stand for Humanity to exist in the Universe.

The existing forerunner plan to use the remaining Halo rings to rid the universe of Humanity and of course MC isn?t going to let this happen. The Forerunner has highly advanced technology, even the covenant tech is far surpassed in comparison, but the humans have one huge advantage. Because Humans are Reclaimers they have the ability to use this Forerunner tech and use it against them.

We are all going to get banned aren't we?

OMFG for the love of cortana it isn't onyx read the damn book.


1.forerunners can't explore the universes more or less other galaxy's.

2. if they were going to wipe out humanity they would have done so, the forerunners don't kill.

First.. I have read the book and when we say onyx it refers to the shield world and the portal not the physical planet that was destroyed, its much easier to say onyx than slip space potalled protected shield world...
Second.. The Forerunner have never been fully explained and their abilities never seen. Who says they couldnt have contact to informaion from thier very own creation like the rings and monitors.
Third.. these are not the forerunner of the past but a decendent of the original spieces

That was because they wanted to stop the Flood and not to wipe out species for fun.

Didn't you knew they preserved species at the ark?

To be perfectly honest i just think that halo 4 was an unorigional and pretty bloody annoying idea, most people were pretty happy with the mystery of chief's future, it was cool, and if anyone was going to finish that it had to be bungie and it had to be just halo 4, not the TRILOGY that 343 are planning to make(its just so annoying!!!)

Im txgrim4 (Grim, Grimmy, Grimsta), i have been playing xboxlive for 9 years, evr since day 1 of Halo:CE til now. I love H2, that and Halo 1 are my favs. Im a Halologist when it comes to the Bungie/Halo Universe. Ive also played Marathon Series, ONI, and Myth Series. I live in Texas, Play Football, and cant wait for Halo 4!

Look, no offense pal, but I sure as H*ll wasnt all suddle and fine with the fact that it left us hanging at the end of halo 3, yeah it was a cool great ending, but EVERYONE wanted to know what happended, halo 4 is a good idea

yer fair enough, make halo 4, but why does it have to be a trilogy? seriously man they just sound cash hungry to me

hotshot revan II, you are right.

and They brought all the species they destroyed, back to life. In some forerunner cannon, humanity was very advanced .. well.. they could travel the stars already when the forerunner existed, they fought us, almost killed as, but eventually became allys because the majority of them, and the forerunners higher up in their hierarchy decided that killing a sentient species is wrong. I mean... how would you feel if someone came up to you and said, I'm smarter, so that means I get to kill you... like... that's messed up.

So when they activated the halo rings, and brought us back, they had to bring us back to a point when we were not sentient enough for the flood's taste, shoved us to here (earth) a point in the galaxy where the flood wouldn't look for us, and they did, they wouldn't find the food they needed.

PLUS they left, like they left their technology behind, but that's for us to use. And if not, it's cause they had to leave in a hurry, like... wouldn't you run from your own sentient species gun? And they had to leave the galaxy to escape the blast radius.

Good guess man, like it fills out a good plot but... you know... plot holes and all that.
