Story

The story starts out far beyond the fortress world of Reach and Earth. It starts on a Colony
called Harvest. It is there where the Covenant first found the humans and glassed the planet.
They transmitted a message that said "Humanitys destruction would be the will of the god and the
Covenant would be the Tool". On ship made it back after that engagement to tell about it. During this time a
Program that was only just gaining popularity would enter its latter stages. Spartan II was the project
super soldiers designed to be the poster boy of UNSC military prowess. When they got the first
version of Project Mjolnir. They fought the covenant on Sigmus Octanas finding about the location
of the Ringworld Alpha Halo. Nobody knew this at the time they thought it was ancient Covenant
writing or some other aliens and the thought of another fighting alien enemy was insane. The Spartans
were sent on a mission to capture a Covenant ship find the location of their homeworld and go there
and capture a Prophet. Unfortunatly before they got on their way Reach got attacked.
They had to turn around and defend Reach.In the battle they discovered a new kind of Covenant that could hurl supercharged plasma at
slipspace speeds. They hurt the ship badly enough for it to leave the battle. There was a snag that
would not allow Capt Keyes to leave with the Spartans. On one of the space docks a ship still had
its navagational data (i.e. the location to Earth and all the inner colonies). So while the covenant
were in sort of a retreat they tried to sneak aboard. Reach's defenses are around 20 Super Mac Guns
that could gut a Covenant ship in one shot. There generators were on the planet. While retreating
the covenant dropped hundreds of ships to go disable the generators so their fleet could come in saftly
without being under fire from the Mac Cannons. So the spartans split up ,some went Planetside to defend the
generators but some stayed and went to go get the Circumference's navagational data. Three stayed
Master Cheif was among the three. The ones that went planet side were overrun and the Mac Guns shut down.
Master Cheif and one other, cause the third died before they got into the space dock, purged the data
and flew out of the dock to the Pillar of Autumn Captain Keyes ship. As reaches defense fell
they took them selves on a course followed by ships. They Sped to Halo.
Master Cheif procures a Covenant Ship when he hooks up with some of the surviors from the Halo
explosion. He also finds a Spartan in a cryogenic cooler. This spartan is badly damaged.
They fly into a covenant ships hanger and fight the limited military personnel. They take control and
speed to Reach. The remaining covenant ships hot on their tail. They make it to Reach only to
find it has totally been wiped out. They use the ship as a disguise at first and slip onto the planet
but this fails. Master Cheif hooks up with some other Spartans. They find their way in a top secret bunker
where they go deep insie to find ancient forerunner technolgy. A technology that disrupts covenant
weapons but also disrupts slipspace. They get out of there on a pelican and fly to UNSC ship that still runs with the repairs they made
.A couple covenant ships follow them. They head to a place where it was the Master Cheifs first
Mission. In an asteroid belt there is a city in one of the hollowed out asteroids. They figure they
can get help there from the Rebels that are there. When they get there the rebels unwillingly
help them. Just before they lure the enemy away Dr. Haisley sends the injured spartan and the
the forerunner device down to the asteroid an they fly to Reach. A Covenant fleet is amassed at Reach of 500 ships
it is with that that there Covenant-Human ship (The human ship was linked to the covenant one)
was taken apart and the covenant ship was lost. They got away and back to Earth. Where not to
much time later The Prophet of Regret attacks.
