Ok, here we go. Here's the premise in case you forgot.
The year is 2552. Planet Earth still exists, but overpopulation has forced many of her former residents to colonize other worlds. Faster-then-light travel is now a reality, and earth's unified goverement, through the United Nations Space Command, has put its full weight behind the colonization effort; millions of humans now live on habitable planets in other solar systems. A keystone of humanity's colonization efforts is the planet Reach, an interstellar naval yard that builds colony ships for civilians and warships for the UNSC's armed forces. Convenietly close to Earth, Reach is also a hub of scientific and military activity.
Thirty-two years ago, contact with the outer colony Harvest was lost. A battlegroup sent to investigate were almost completly destroyed; only one badly damaged ship returned to Reach. Its crew told of a semingly unstoppable alien warship that had effortlessly annialated their forces.
This was humankind's first encounter with a group of aliens that eventually came to know as the Covenant, a collective of alien races united in their fanatical religious devotion. Covenant religious elders declared humanity an affront to the gods, and the Covenant warrio caste wageda holy war upon humanity with gruesome diligence.
After a series of crushing defeats and obliterated colonies, UNSC Admiral Preston Cole established the Cole Protocol: no vessel may inadvertently lead the Covenant to Earth. When forced to withdraw, ships must avoid Earth-bound vectors- even if that means jumping without propor navigational calculations. Vessels in danger of capture must self destruct.
On Reach, a secret military project to create cyborg super-soldiers takes a newfound importance. The soldiers of the SPARTAN-II project rack up an impressive record against the Covenant in test deployments, but there are too few of them to turn the tide of the war.
Existing SPARTAN-II soldiers are recalled to Reach for further augmentation. The plan: board a Covenant vessel with the improved SPARTAN-IIs and learn the location of the Covenant homeworld. Two days before the mission begins, Covenant forces strike Reach and annihilate the colony. The Covenant are now on Earth's doorstep.
This is where the Pillar of Autumn, the only surviving ship on Reach, makes a blind jump into space and finds Halo. After the effects on Halo, everything has calmed a bit. (I took out Master Cheif to change the story a bit.)
10 years have gone by and the war is still going on. One commercial freighter, The Star of the Galaxy, was sending suurvivors of Reach back to Earth. What they didn't know is that the Covenant was secretly tracking them, and they now know where Earth lies. The war is esculating again, and the Covenant have sent an entire legion of their finest troops to annialate Earth which is the last stronghold of the human race.
What the Covenant did not expect is that Earth has been preparing. When all the SPARTAN-II agents were destroyed on Reach, Earth began the SPARTAN-III project. The funding of the project was cut, since the failure of the SPARTAN-II project showed that the members could be killed. Because of this, Earth only had the money to train 10 kids. Taken from their families at the age of 5, they have been trained similarly to the original SPARTANS, except their armor is tougher and they have more acrobatic skills.
With the fate of Earth in the hands of 10 now 17 year old SPARTAN-III's, thinks look bleak. The Covenant legion has blockaded Earth, and they are now delpoying troops. It is now up to the 10 SPARTAN-IIIs to defend Earth and turn the tide of the war.
Here we go...
Climax
-----------------------
With a sudden jolt, I found myself awake. It had happened so fast, and I did not know who or what I was. All I knew is I was trapped, and I needed to get out. I tried to move my arm, but my brain wouldn't let me. I tried to scream but no voice came out.
The cage I was in then began to open and I spilled out naked onto the floor. I lie there for some time, trying to think of what had happened. Suddenly visions began circulating again. "You're Mike Candela, leader of the SPARTAN III's." I said to myself. more memories began to circulate of my training and the final memory of me being dragged away from my mom....
Suddenly, a broad hand held out a t-shirt and some sweat pants. To my surprise, my arm allowed me to take them. After slipping on the clothes, I stood up shakily. "Cryo sleep does that to ya boy. You'll come around." A voice said. I looked around the area. Other teenagers were also in tubes, but none of them had been awoken yet.
"I think I remember now General Albon." I said. I had remembered his name after hearing his voice. The memories of the past few days had whirled through my mind just then. I remember General Albon informing me that my team and I were to be sent to a military base outside of Utah. There we were put into cryo sleep until called upon.
"The others should be dethawed in the next hour or so." The General informed me. I instinctly looked around to see my comrades. Visions of the training we had done together began to form in my head. We were elite, and the only hope for the human race now.
The General lead me through a series of corridors. I stumbled a bit, but managed to keep up. "What's the reason for the rude awakening?" I asked as we neared the command deck. The General took a glance at me then held up his hand. In it was a small flat rectangle. I instantly recognized it as a recording device.
A holographic projection of a Ship's AI appeared. "This is a report we recieved from the Star of the Galaxy just today." The General Replied.
The AI began to speak in a frantic and miserbale voice. "If you are recieving this distress call please respond! This is the Star of the Galaxy! We are under attack and request backup immediatly. We were ambushed when we exited hyper space. Covenant Battle cruisers lie just inside the Dominican Star Zone..."
I recognized that name, but I had to be certain. "What zone is this again?" I asked. The general sighed. "The Dominican Star is the last fuel station before the slip space to Earth." He replied.
The AI unpaused and the message continued. "They are attacking the ship It is only a matter of time before they find everything. We tried to self destruct, but the Covenant managed to disable our power. We're helpless, and we're deeply sorry. If no one comes, Earth will be discovered in a matter if minutes...."
The AI then short circuited and the message went out. The General frowned. "We had no ships ready for deployment and minutes later a distress call was also sent from the Domincan Star. The whole area is overun. It's over, Earth has been found. The Covenant legions are multiplying. They will be here in a matter of days."
It hit me hard. I knew what happened to planets that the Covenant found. They were glassed, wiped out completly by a giant ray that shatters the planet. This was to be our fate if something wasn't done.
The General then shot me a look. "That is why you have been dethawed. You have approximatly 4 days to get your team ready for battle. Until now you've only had the regular MJOLNIR armor. We're going to teach your squad to operate with the updated version, and we're going to do it in 4 days. Prepare to go back to the basics..."
