SC = Supreme Commander/Supreme Canadian.

De Facto leader of the military of the APE (Allied Planets Empire).

Coup = Admiral Asskicker, ZPM hive ship

Scenario One: Halsey finds an Ancient artifact hidden within a Forerunner ruin. Activating it, she is taken to the Ori galaxy, where she inadvertently alerts the Ori to the existence of life in the Milky Way, prompting the Ori to begin their next great crusade. The poor servant girl that Halsey was inhabiting is burned at the Ara, with Halsey being saved right before the body dies.

Timeline is shortly before the Covenant attack on Harvest.

Scenario Two: A random Unggoy finds an Ancient artifact hidden within a Forerunner ruin. Activating it, it is taken to the Ori galaxy, where it inadvertently alerts the Ori to the existence of life in the Milky Way, prompting the Ori to begin their next great crusade. The poor servant girl that the Unggoy was inhabiting is burned at the Ara, with the Grunt being saved right before the body dies. And then dies anyway, because Grunts are worthless, but not before alerting the Covenant to what's coming.

Timeline is before the events of Contact Harvest.

Scenario Three: Five years after the events of Halo 3, the UNSC and Separatists are allied together, slowly both driving the Brutes to extinction. One of the Brute clans makes contact with the Ori via the long range communication device. The Brute obviously alarms the Ori, and the entire village is razed to keep the odd behaviour of the inhabitants down. Oh, and the next great crusade begins.
In this scenario, the UNSC/Separatists have no idea about what's coming their way.

Please, no teraton MACs or plasma torps.
ROB has graciously put Stargates on the lesser UNSC colonies, and one on Reach for Scenario One. However, the UNSC has no freaking idea how they work, and just treats them as ancient ruins from a time long past (researchers are still studying them, but to no gain). For Scenario Two, almost every Covenant world has a Stargate, and they use these regularly to move troops and civilians around. For Scenario Three, the Stargate map matches the SG Milky Way layout. The Ascended Ancients are still there to prevent the Ori from coming across the void and roflstomping everything, although they can't interfere themselves.

What is the outcome of all three scenarios?

Pardon my dust, but I feel that you should probably let people know what the Ori are, for those who haven't seen Stargate SG-1.

Additionally, it is the opinion of this writer, and the majority of the Stargate Community, that the Ori would wipe out any adversary in the Halo universe due to their relative omnipotence to corporal beings.

Then again, they do require followers for energy, and since there is a relatively small amount of life in the Halo universe, one may conjecture that they will have little to no power, and thus, wither and die.

Unfortunately it is these kinds of speculative scenario inquiries which are impossible to answer. It is not hard to answer, just hard to answer with fact. Opinionated responses are all that can be transmitted to you, and although that's nice and friendly, this sort of question can never truly be answered.
