iv kinda noticed something.. covenant refer to people who dont belive in the great journey as heritics. it seemed as tho the Arbiter wanted to stop the activation of Halo once he learned that it would kill all life in the galaxy, this would mean he is fighting to stop the covenant from activating Halo - just like the humans.

Those who want to activate Halos: Those who want to activate the Halos and begin the great journey consist of the Brutes, Jackles, Prophets and Drones. these charchters are all fighting to activate the Halos/begin the great journey - they dont want to know the truth or dont know the truth.

Those who dont want the Halos activated: Those who want to live, and not be destroyed by the Halos consist of the Humans, elites, grunts, hunters and belive it or not.. the Flood. if the halos were activated they would all die.. and the Flood would die of stavation.

Those who dont want the rings activated but still want to kill off the other races: the Flood.. all the flood want to do is feed. but to continue doing this they need to stop halo from being activated as this would destroy there food souce.

This means that the flood will fight to stop the covenant along with the humans/heritics of the covenant to a certain extent. Post your thoughts on this theroy/subject please.

I seriously don't think that the flood are going to help us. Try to kill us, yes, but not help us.

Ya i understand what your saying.. but didnt the gravemind send master chief and the Arbiter to find the index and his words "stop the key from turning" i think this means stop the halos from being activated because he dosent want the rings activated just as much as the humans as the rings would destroy them both. as the rings were designed to kill humans in a sense... thus killing the flood.

Oh, Death was never enemy of ours!
We laughed, knowing that better men would come,
And greater wars: when each brave fighter brags
He wars on Death, for lives: not men, or flags.
-The Next War

FLAMEEEEEEE!!!!

YA! I totally agree with you cause he controls the flood and who would pass up the opertunity to side with your enemies to save yourself?

I believe it is not very probable idea. The Flood may want to stop the Halos from being activated but they are also an out of control feeding machine. Do remember that the Flood attacked humans trying to recover the index in Halo 2 on the levels Sacred Icon and Quarantine Zone. The humans were trying to STOP the ring from being activated yet the flood still used them to feed.

it's like the theory that some people have come to believe that the Elites and Humans will forge an Alliance. Though more probable than the flood, the elites and humans have fought each other for a long time, if they do become allies i suspect it will take a LONG time. This is not to say they won't work together, but i suspect it will be more of a truce than a alliance.

this is a 3 sided war, human, covenant, and flood. Humans want to not become extinct, covenant want to all die from activating the halos, and flood want to spread, infect all life in the universe, and not get blown to hell by halo
