Now picture this...
we are in the time the forerunners rule over the present universe... they have races by their leadership... but eventually they would dissapear, as every species do. the leaders of the forerunners didnt want this... they wanted to exist forever.. what would they do??? they build the Halos... not with the purpose everybody think they have (a weapon of last resort against the flood) but instead as a mean to preserve themselves for all eternity. the rings would be activated by another races by their command and everybody would die... EXCEPT them. they would be transported into the future (because they took shelter in the ARK that has that function) to a time were another races would have evolved and they would dominate them... and this would happen again and again...

Theres a catch... how would they make the others activate the halos?? they need a cover story... now the FLOOD come into the show.. the forerunners BUILD the flood as an indestructible race and release them at a certain time so that a war begins... then when all is about to be lost.. they tell their sobordinates to activate the HALOS a last resort to destroy the flood.. the other races activate them and they would die, the forerunners would ensure their survival and the flood would be put into dormant state until the other generations awake them eventually

Perhaps the generation that was under the forerunners rule looked a lot like us (thats why 343 sees us as the ones that must activate the ring)

and where does the covenant fit??? Pure speculation.. I believe that the last time the Halos where activated the covenant existed but they where in another galaxy, far away from the blast and didnt know about the forerunners and when they started to conquer they found the forerunners halos and started to praise them (this theory would explain the whole "great journey" thing... why the covenant see halos activation as a "trip" and not destruction)

so.. at some point in H3 I think the forerunners will arrive from the past and be ready to conquer us.. but this time there might have been a mistake... the flood was already discovered (because of the survival of the covenant and their finding of Halo).. so this time, they cant fool us to our destruction.. THEY will be forced to destroy us themselves.. all of us ( humans and covenant).. this leads to a TRULY epic final battle in H3.. humans and covenant united to destroy the forerunner army... try to imagine it..

What do you guys think?? now THAT would be something no one expected.. right??

How could they other races activate it when humans are the only ones who can? Thats why Tarterus wanted Miranda to put in the index.

P.S. I don't really know how to spell tarterus

first time i read a theory about forerunners being evil and its sounds cool. and i like the whole human covy vs forerunners but i think the covy would try ally with the forerunners and be betrayed.

Let me guess, the governments of the world are actually working together to overthrow the rights of the people?

Maybe humans were their slaves and used them to activate the halos while they were in the ark while taking enough humans with them to repopulate.

Interesting theory. One thing I definitely want to see in H3 is the Forerunners.

Is it possible that the forerunners go into a ship that can go Sub light speed (Which could explain the whole great journey thing) and come back almost 3,000 years in the future from the last halo Apocalypse but to them it seems like 3 or even 30 years?

Edit: What if the ark is what sends the signal to the ship?

i like this theory, good job :D

what i think is that the evil side of the covenant (prophets, brutes, jackels, buggers) will try to side with the forerunners (which they think are thier gods) and be killed by their own gods. While the good side (arbitar, grunts, elites, hunters) unite with the humans to stop the forerunners!!!! it sounds perfect.

Or what if the forerunners ARE the flood but not the plural forerunners but forerunner, the grave mind?!?! or maybe there all like the grave mind and he was left behind to activate the ark to send a signal to there ship telling them that the halos were activated?!?!?!?!111??1/

ya i agree i think that the retards will side with the Forerunners and the arbiter and the rest will side with us it will be really kool...

I think its an interesting idea but i dont think we will see the Forerunners in h3 and like i said before in other threads that even tho we have a lot of great theories none of them will be even close to wats goin to happen

Good theorys, interesting

Humans + Covenant = Kick the asses of every Sentinel of every Halo. Mesa no thinks that the humans and covies will lose against the real forerunners.
