==Transcript==

'''''Mission Briefing'''''

*'''[[Captain (Navy)|Captain]] [[James Cutter]]''': "Professor, what's the update at the [[Control Room]]?"

*'''[[Isabel]]''': "Fresh troops will be sent in directly from the ''[[Spirit of Fire]]'' as soon as they are ready to deploy. And I've got all the ship's weapons systems primed and ready, so we'll help as much as we can from up here."

*'''Cutter''': "Okay everyone, let's get to work. Good luck"

'''{''In-game cutscene}'''

*'''Jerome-092''': "Don't worry, sir. We've got her. And it looks like we've got company right now."

*'''Anders''': "This Control Room has a defensive shield, but it won't last long. You just keep the wolves at bay."

*'''Isabel''': "We'll be sending the reinforcements directly from the ship just as soon as they're ready to deploy."

*'''Cutter''': "Red Team, reinforcements are ready for you at the LZ."

''Red Team and the Marines assault the Warlords' encampments and eventually defeat them.''

*'''Jerome-092''': "We've eliminated another Warlord."

*'''Cutter''': "We've got reinforcement for you now, Red Team"

*'''Cutter''': "What's the status, Professor?"

*'''Anders''': "It's...complicated. So many protocols. I'm probably halfway there, I need more time."

*'''Jerome-092''': "We'll buy her time, sir."

*'''Cutter''': "We have reinforcements standing by for you, Red Team."

*'''Cutter''': "Reinforcement ready for your command, Red Team."

*'''Cutter''': "Red Team, reinforcements are ready for you at the LZ."

*'''Jerome-092''': "Copy that, sir. Game faces, team!"

*'''Cutter''': "Watch out, team. The Banished have sent in artillery."

'''{''Cinematic Cutscene''}'''

*'''Marine Lieutenant (COM)''': West flank, we have them in position.

''Continue panning right. A Pelican arrives and drops off a Scorpion in a cloud of red identifier smoke.''

''Another Warthog arrives, and Jerome leaps out from its gunner seat. He walks forward and draws his rifle.''

''Cut to inside the Halo's control room. Anders stands by a hologram of the Ark and the Halo above it.''

''At the control terminal, Anders pulls forward a section of the Halo, magnifying it. Banished forces are marked in red on its surface. Anders reaches forward and draws a circle around them, and the hologram adjusts its borders to contain the entire army. The control room begins to shake.''

''Anders hesitates while holding the subsection hologram.''

''She pushes up, and the landmass is flung into space. The shield dissipates, and the Marines watch the landmass fly high into the space. Cut to an orbital view of the ring, where the ejected landmass crumbles.''

''Cut to an interior view of a Pelican's open troop bay. The Marines and Jerome walk inside. Jerome stands by the door, watching the enormous hole in the ground left from the ejection. The Pelican's bay door closes.''

''Cut to the Control Room.''

''Anders brings up a hologram and inspects it.''

''The hologram depicts an enormous slipspace portal opening above the ring.

''Cut to in orbit above the Ark. The Halo is being pulled towards the slipspace portal, as the Spirit of Fire watches nearby. Cut to the ship's bridge, as Captain Cutter watches the ring pass.''

''The ring is swallowed and the portal closes up. Cutter and Isabel watch as the ''Spirit'' floats alone over the Ark.''

''Cutter continues to watch out into space, but then turns to Isabel.''

''The topographical map of the Ark's surface appears on the holo-table. Troop positions and key locations are marked.''

''Cut to the Control Room. The hologram of the slipspace transit shrinks and slow. A [[Forerunner symbols|Forerunner symbol]] appears in the hologram near the ring.''

''Behind her, the Control Room's elevator descends. Anders turns and walks toward it.''

''Cut to the ring's surface. It is dark, as Anders steps cautiously through the forest. As she looks around, reaching the edge of the hole she created, a bright flash of light occurs. It's an object coming out of slipspace. Anders shields her eyes, then looks up as it approaches.''

''She faces up to see an enormous [[Guardian]].''

*Holographic Decoy I and II

*Close Air Support I
