'''Shadows''' is the twenty-fourth track in ''[[Halo: Original Soundtrack]]''.
'''Shadows''' is a song included in the ''[[Halo: Original Soundtrack]]''.


==Overview==
It is notably the shortest song in the ''Halo: Original Soundtrack''. Its first heard in ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' during the opening cut scene of [[Halo (Level)|Halo]]. Slight variations of some of the strings are heard throughout the course of the game, and in part of [[Truth and Reconciliation Suite]]. In ''Halo 2'' and ''Halo 3 ''the same variations of the strings are heard and are normally played when [[Flood]] are either nearby or attacking, featured in the songs [[Mausoleum Suite|Shudder]], [[Gravemind (Music)| Gravemind]], and the last movement of [[Halo Reborn]], which is played during the battle with [[343 Guilty Spark (Monitor)|Guilty Spark]].
The track is notably the shortest track in the ''Halo: Original Soundtrack''. The piece begins with high strings, followed by siren sound effects (like those heard in ''[[Truth and Reconciliation Suite]]''), with percussion fading in, and finally joined by electric guitar. In-game, only the siren sounds were used.


==Appearances==
== Appearances ==
The soundtrack can be heard:
*''Halo: CE'': on levels ''Halo'', ''343 Guilty Spark'', ''The Library'', and throughout the game.  
*In the level ''[[Halo (Halo: Combat Evolved level)|Halo]]'', during the opening cutscene.
*''Halo 2'': on the level ''The Oracle'', and ''Sacred Icon''.
*In the level ''[[The Library]]'', when [[John-117]] holds position at a locked door on the third floor of the [[Library]].
*''Halo 3''': on levels ''The Covenant'', and ''Cortana''.


==Arrangements==
The siren sound effect would become associated with the [[Flood]] throughout the series, and used again in the following tracks:
*''Shudder'' in ''[[Mausoleum Suite]]'' of ''[[Halo 2: Original Soundtrack]]''.
*[[Gravemind (music)|Gravemind]] of ''[[Halo 3: Original Soundtrack]]''.
*''Punishment'' in ''[[Halo Reborn]]'' of ''Halo 3: Original Soundtrack''.
*''[[Between Beams]]'' of ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary Original Soundtrack]]''.
