Transcript

{Cutscene}

Fireteam Osiris exits a door to head further into the Meridian Forerunner ruins.

The Spartans walk down their pathway. Pan right to reveal more of the underground chamber. It is framed by lava falls, and floating platforms move to lead to the enormous construct in its center - the Guardian.

  • Edward Buck: "Whoa. They built them big, didn't they? Figure that's the Guardian?"

Spartan Vale approaches the edge of their walkway and sees a glowing blue light on its floor. It resembles another blue light situated on a floating circular platform. Vale steps into it, and is immediately teleported to the platform.

Vale steps off the platform to another walkway, but sees another teleportation glow above her.

  • Vale: "Contact!"

It's the missing Spartan-II squad, Blue Team - and John-117. He turns to see the approaching Spartans, and runs.

  • Locke: "Move! Contain!"

A chase ensues. Osiris pursues Blue Team through the floating platforms, passing through teleporters to reach higher levels. At the last one, Locke jumps in but his teammates stay back. Cut to the final platform, which leads to a widening slipspace portal, and Blue Team lands to head for it.

Locke lands and holds Kelly-087, Fred-104, and Linda-058 at gunpoint with his battle rifle.

  • Locke: "Blue Team!"

Vale, Tanaka, and Buck arrive at a balcony overlooking the platform.

  • Locke: "Stay where you are."

John warps in and joins his teammates.

  • Locke: "117, stand down!"

Blue Team turns to look at John, who looks back at Locke, who still has rifle raised.

  • Locke: "Sir, you are absent without leave. This is your one chance to come home peacefully."

John nods to Blue Team. They turn and walk into the portal.

  • Locke: "Blue Team! Stand down!"

The Spartan-IIs ignore him. John starts to walk to the portal.

  • John: "I have a job to do."
  • Locke: "Cortana's our concern now, sir."

John stops, his back to Locke.

  • John: "Like hell she is."

Master Chief turns, grabs Locke's rifle out of his hands, then swing and breaks it over Locke's head. He punches at him but misses, and Locke catches his arm and pushes him away. John follows with another swing but Locke catches his hand. The two wrestle before John overpowers Locke, tossing him some feet away.

Locke lands and gets to his feet, then charges and kicks his knee into John's head. John flounders at the blow while Locke follows with a kick to the chest. John is pushed back a distance and Locke tries to get him with a punch, but the Chief grabs Locke and tosses him to the floor. He swings a punch at Locke's head, but Locke rolls out of the way and kicks John's face. Locke then gets to his feet and knees Chief more times in the chest.

As John reels, Locke swings his fists at John's head. The right punch stuns him, but the right punch knocks John to his knees. John stays kneeling for a moment, then gets up and slowly turns to face Locke, revealed his faceplate has been cracked across. Locke stands ready and primes an armor restraint.

The Spartans charge. Locke swings his right hand carrying the restraint, but John catches it and punches Locke across the face with his other hand. He keeps his grip on Locke's right arm while he knees Locke's midsection then locks their arms. As the two wrestle for control, John headbutts Locke, takes the restraint, and jams it in Locke's chest. Locke struggles and draws his pistol but his armor seals tight, freezing him in place.

An earthquake rumbles through the chamber. Vale, Tanaka, Buck, and Locke, still able to move his head, looks up to see rocks falling from the ceiling. John holsters his assault rifle and heads into the portal. As it closes, the platform moves Locke closer to Osiris, letting them jump down to reach him. Tanaka pulls the armor restraint off Locke.

  • Locke: "Damn it!"

Roars echo in the cavern. The Guardian's "eyes" glow as it prepares to break free. The floating platforms around it begin to fall. Osiris looks to the closest exit platform, but it falls into the lava below. The door they entered from shuts.

  • Tanaka: "Don't like the looks of this."

A deafening screech emanates from the Guardian.

  • Buck: "Maybe we can get out how they got in."

Buck points to a distant teleporter platform.

  • Locke: "Go! Run!"

Osiris leaps from teleporter to teleporter, as the platforms lose power and drop. They make it to the last, but Buck misses and grabs its edge while the other phase through. Buck hangs by one arm and sees the lava lake below.

  • Buck: "Aw hell."

The platform starts to drop, but Locke reappears and grabs Buck's arm. He pulls him up and they pass through the teleporter.

  • Locke: "I said run!"

The now-empty platform falls into the lava. Cut to the Guardian, now powered and preparing to break into the surface.
