'''''Halo: Combat'''''<ref>http://www.gamersyde.com/stream_4291_en.html</ref> is a short video created in collaboration with [[Bungie Studios]], [[Neill Blomkamp]], [[WETA Digital]] and [[Origami Digital LLC]]. It is roughly 1:33 minutes long and is the second video in the trilogy, and was leaked on August 23, 2007. The video was officially released via WETA's website on August 28, 2007. On August 31, 2007, the video was revealed to be on the Xbox website under the name Combat: Part 1. The story told in the short was later concluded in [[Halo: Last One Standing]]. | |||

The short film follows two [[UNSC Marine Corps|UNSC]] [[Orbital Drop Shock | [[Image:H3_AR2_Brute_Kill_3.jpg|thumb|200px|right|Bravo-21, [[T. Rymarr]], kills a [[Brute]] with a [[BR55HB SR Battle Rifle]].]] | ||
The short film follows two [[UNSC Marine Corps|UNSC]] [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper]]s fighting across a wasteland, being engaged by [[Covenant Loyalist]] forces, led by the [[Jiralhanae]]. The film starts off with two ODSTs of [[Alpha Team]], Bravo-21 ([[T. Rymarr]]) and Bravo-22 ([[S. Hartley]]), being tracked on an aerial camera as they move through a wasteland with gunfire going off around them along with several [[Banshee]] [[Fuel Rod]] strikes closely missing them. | |||
Bravo-22 is tracking something on a hand-held scanner, and retrieves an elongated casing labeled "UNSC" from under a pile of debris while Bravo-21 gives him covering fire against fast-moving enemies.

Superheated metal spikes impale the wall that they are near as a pair of [[Brute Minor|Jiralhanae Minors]] open fire with [[Type-25 Carbine]] weapons. Bravo-21 shoots them both with a [[BR55HB SR Battle Rifle]], downing one as Bravo-22 calls for evacuation, prompting a [[D77H-TCI Pelican Dropship]] to begin its descent to their position as Bravo-21 kills the second Brute with his BR55HB SR. | ||

The Pelican drops off a [[Warthog|M12 Light Reconnaissance Vehicle]], prompting the ODSTs to make a run for it in the middle of an exposed area. Bravo-21 takes the driver's seat while Bravo-22 takes the passenger seat. Bravo-22 is then hit from an unknown source of fire, splattering smears of blood against the Warthog's windshield and the camera. The Warthog smashes through a wall then, shortly afterward, the film ends with <tt>'Transmission Terminated, End Part 1'</tt>. | ||
