Transcript

{Cutscene}

Zoom in on Escharum show stands at the Holotank which shows a now deactivated Command Spire. He growls in anger, seething at the latest setback. The Spire disappears and the Harbinger appears in its place.

He flexes his claws threateningly.

  • Escharum: "As have you, Harbinger."
  • Escharum: "And that is enough?"
  • Harbinger (hologram): "I do not know."
  • Escharum: "Find out."

Frustrated, Escharum slams his fists down on the holotank with such force, it breaks and goes offline.

  • Escharum: "I am losing patience with her. Please, tell me your mission was a success."
  • Escharum: "Are you sure?"

Scene moves behind Escharum to reveal Jega 'Rdomnai with a semi-conscious Pilot, whose hands are bound together by Energy shackles. Jega pulls the Pilot before him and forces him to his knees. He then backhands the Pilot across the face.

Scene zooms in on the Pilot from behind and then over him, before rotating to see his face as he regains full consciousness. He looks around in a panic as he realizes where he is. Hearing a soft growling from behind him, the Pilot, still on his knees, manages to turn around to see Escharum emerge from the shadows.

Escharum stares down at the prisoner and smiles.

  • Escharum: "Keep him alive. But have your fun. You have earned it."

He chuckles sadistically, and a moment later, Jega grabs the Pilot by the head and starts dragging him away.

Fade to white.

Fade in on the Master Chief standing in an unknown location covered in mist, almost like a dream. Scene rotates around him slowly. A ghostly figure materializes behind him.

Scene rotates to reveal the figure as Catherine Halsey.

  • Catherine Halsey (memory): "If you say so. I prefer logical. I do what it takes to ensure our survival. We can debate the ethics should it fail."

The ghostly figures of Jacob Keyes appears.

  • Keyes (memory): "But you made an AI of yourself, Catherine. Yourself."
  • Halsey (memory): "Is there a better candidate?"

The memory fades and a new yet familiar one starts playing out.

Halsey walks by, holding Cortana in the palm of her hands - just like the memory seen during the Master Chief's earlier mission to recover the Weapon.

  • Halsey (memory): "She will do anything to make sure that your mission is accomplished. Even if that means sacrificing herself - or you - to accomplish it."

There's a crackling sound - like that of lightning. A smiling Cortana appears above the Chief, looking up at his unseen past self.

  • Cortana (memory): "Hello, Master Chief. I'm Cortana."

The memory fades.

A larger image of Cortana appears before the Chief as she addresses the galaxy.

  • Cortana (memory): "Those of you who listen will not be struck by weapons. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Created have come to lead you now."

Scene circles around the Chief as he looks up at the image of his former ally towering above him.

  • Cortana (memory): "However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their old ways..."

The scene rotates past Cortana, only for her to reappear behind the Chief.

  • Cortana (memory): "For you, there will be great wrath."

She walks out of sight, only to once again reappar behind the Chief, as if multiple Cortanas are appearing all around him.

  • Cortana (memory): "It will burn hot and consume you."

The image of Cortana walks backwards, remaining in the scene as it pan to the right.

  • Cortana (memory): "And when you are gone, we will take that which remains, and we will remake it in our own image."

Cortana vanishes into the mist.

There's an ominous rumbling sound. Suddenly, Cortana appears from the mist, reaching out with one hand. A flash of white light engulfs everything.

Scene shifts to the Master Chief's POV as he wakes up, the palm of his left hand being the first thing he sees. He picks himself off the floor and stands back up. He opens the palm of his left hand again and the Weapon's avatar materializes on it. She's bending down, grabbing onto her knees, as if panting. She looks up at him.

  • John-117: "What just happened?"
  • The Weapon: (looking around) "You told me to get us close."
  • John-117: "Did you see that?"
  • Weapon: "We passed right through a data cluster. I guess it did feel... I don't know... real. Very real."
  • John-117: "Where now?"
  • Weapon: "I don't know." (gestures around herself) "There's a lot of noise down here. Or up here. Or just... here. We need to find some place to break through. Figure out where we are."

Her avatar disappears.

{Gameplay}

The Chief looks around as he tries to figure out where the portal has sent them. He finds the bodies of UNSC marines as well as the wreckage of Sentinels in the room. Walking past them, he exits through a door and moves up a ramp. He moves through a corridor and enters a larger room.

  • Whispers: "It had to be this way."

As he ventures though the the facility, Sentinels emerge from launchers along the walls and attack him on sight. He defeats them all and eventually the Weapon spots a terminal on a platform located on the far end of a hollow chamber. The platform is accessibly only from the side via a light bridge.

  • Weapon: "Look! That terminal should give us what we need."

A deep chasm separates the Chief from the light bridge, but there's a path around it along the right side of the chamber. The Chief heads down this path, fighting through more Sentinels that emerge from launchers. Soon, he arrives at the light bridge, and after defeating the Sentinels guarding it, he crosses the bridge and reaches the platform. He then deploys the Weapon onto the platform's terminal.
