The scene switches to Master Chief getting up - now fully recovered - and holstering the rifle to his back. At this point, a few Plasma Mortars could be seen heading high up into the sky, one of which is heading towards Master Chief. Quickly, he responds to the soldiers - informing them that he is not lost yet - and reaches for a [[Bubble Shield]] and activating it just in time as the Plasma Mortar reaches the vicinity, sending the Mongoose flying away. As soon as the dust clears and the Bubble Shield is down, he starts running forward - at the same time arming himself with the assault rifle while narrowly avoiding an explosion from an unknown source. The camera then switches to tailing the Chief's back, where he is shown to be preparing to take a leap from the edge of a small cliff and drop into a battalion consisting of at least six Wraiths, fourteen [[Brutes]] and one [[Brute Chieftain]], who (while the others run away) anticipates the Chief by raising his [[Gravity Hammer]]. The final shot shows the Chief "landing on the camera" and it cuts to a black screen with the words "Halo 3" shown.

The kids and the clumps of grass around them were taken from real footage. The CGI doesn’t begin until the Chief’s helmet is seen for the first time.<ref name="Weekly">[http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=9300 '''Bungie.net''': ''Bungie Weekly Update 12/8/2006'']</ref> As for who the kids seen at the beginning are, [[Bungie]] has yet to give a straight answer. They may or may not be John and another female [[Spartan]]. KP has confirmed that the trailer took place on Earth. However, he did not explicitly state that the ''children'' were on Earth.
