Transcript

{Cutscene}

Open to debris of the Dawn and a fireball falling into a Requiem's land. Cut to black as the debris and the fireball impact on the ground.

Fades in to the wreckage in the area. Scene pans to an assault rifle on the ground and John-117's hand next to it. His hand stirs, and tightens. John pushes the debris on top of him off of him, and looks around. He sits up and picks up his rifle.

• John-117: "Where are we?"

• Cortana: "Checking coordinate impact data…"

• Cortana (rampant): "We have asked you to give up your family, your childhood, your future…"

John shakes his head in confusion, and pulls out the data crystal chip containing Cortana out of his helmet. Cortana's avatar appears on it.

• John-117: "Cortana…"

• Cortana: "I'm sorry. It's the crash. I'm fine."

• John-117: "Something was wrong before we left the Dawn."

• Cortana: "Chief, (distorted) really, I'm fine."

John stands up.

• John-117: "Cortana."

Cortana looks down to the ground.

• Cortana: "I was put into service eight years ago."

Chief looks away, pondering.

• John-117: "Eight years…"

• Cortana: "AIs deteriorate after seven, Chief."

John looks back at Cortana.

• John-117: "Halsey."

• Cortana: "Chief…"

• John-117: "We need to find Halsey."

• Cortana: "Chief, please."

• John-117: "She made you. She could fix you."

• Cortana: "I won't recover from rampancy, Chief."

• John-117: "If we could just get back to Earth, and find Halsey, she could fix this."

• Cortana: "Don't make a girl a promise you can't keep."

The duo stops and looks up as they hear Covenant aircrafts fly over them. A Phantom, escorted by two Banshees, fly over them at high speed.

• Cortana: "We need to move."

Cortana's avatar disappears and John looks ahead."

Trivia

• On the second floor of one of the debris pieces of the Dawn, there is a wounded Elite moments away from death. Behind him, there is one of Catherine Halsey's record logs similar to the data pads found in Halo: Reach.
• On top of a cliff above the opening leading to the next area, there is a Covenant distress beacon that says, "Didact", every thirty seconds. According to Cortana, the Covenant were playing the recording for three years in an attempt to gain access to Requiem.
