"Why here?" you question aloud. "What's significant about this place?"
>Forerunners don't act without purpose. Their technology brought you here for a reason.
>You feel a pang of anxiousness. You'd better find a communications relay before trying to unravel this place.
>You scan the environment. A pastoral setting: scattered trees, rolling hills, a view straight to the horizon. And it was twilight. The sky was a stunning shade of purple.
>You settle your gaze on the lights once more. That's the greatest point of interest, you'll head there.
>You assess yourself. You and your gear remain unscathed. You carry a standard recon kit: a marksman rifle, a sniper rifle, a sidearm, and respected magazines, along with a survival knife.
"You'll be fine," you tell yourself.
>You set off at a comfortable but cautious jog, bee-lining from one small patch of trees to another, scanning everything.
>As you navigate the terrain you adjust your motion sensor to maximum range, noting the tiny white blips around you. Small. Unknown signatures. Just wildlife hiding in the bushes.
>You decide to speed up, and accelerate to an easy sprint. You begin to feel more comfortable as nightfall descends and darkness covers you. This is your element. Your armour is reactive in the dark, and you blend with the shadows.
>Your pace slackens as you approach the settlement. You stop at a safe distance and settle in at the brow of a hill. You magnify your visor to get a better view.
>You're looking at a village, a considerably small and primitive one. 'No good' you think as you look it over. With straw roofs, there wasn't going to be any sort of comms relay nearby.
"Why make a portal that leads here?"
>Your motion sensor suddenly flashes. An airborne blip heads your direction from 50 meters out. You rise into a defensive stance and ready your rifle.
>As it gets closer, you watch as a small cylindrical construct hover over to you.

"Reclaimer," it drones.
>You stare at it.
"Reclaimer," it repeats.
"Yes," you answer.
"You have come alone. Why did the Masters send you alone."
>The question was more of a statement than a question.
"Your masters are gone," you answer. "I'm here because I activated a portal. By mistake."
>The small drone seemed to ponder this.
"This world is not ready for your use Reclaimer. The Masters will return when it is. You must come with me."
>The drone hovers upward and spins in the direction you came from. It begins moving at a reasonable pace. You decide to follow it without question. The last time you pissed a Forerunner construct off, you were almost incinerated.
>As you jog behind it you check your comms again. Nothing. You decide to try and get some answers from the AI guiding you.
"Can you tell me where this world is?"
>It doesn't reply.
"Are there means of sending me back where I came from?"
>Silence
'Forerunners...'
You keep up your pace for a rough 20 minutes, trailing silently behind the construct. It eventually stops and descends down to the ground. You realize this is exactly where you started, and watch, intrigued. A small beam projects out of the construct and shoots into the ground, then a short cylinder extends out of the grass. The construct hovers over to it and projects its beam on it.
>A circle of ground suddenly dips into the earth, and below the surface you see lights built into the walls, all shining in a circle.
"Enter the circle," the drone orders.
>You step into the sunken circle of ground and into the white light. The construct hovers above you. It projects another beam into the ground, then the lights shine in the typical blinding Forerunner fashion, and your whole body goes fuzzy.

>You cringe at the unfamiliarity of the odd sensation. It's almost like being tickled. Spartans don't do tickling.
>Finally it ends, and the light fades away. You expect to be facing the inside of a Forerunner base, but life hasn't been that straightforward lately. You're facing a castle. An extravagantly large castle.
>You stand there speechless.
"Enter this structure," the construct orders.
>You struggle to find a professional way to word your distress.
"I... I don't understand, I thought you were taking me to a portal, or a ship. Why am I here? I need to get off this planet. Don't you understand?"
"Enter this building. The inhabitants will help you. We cannot."
>You wait to allow the construct to continue. It doesn't.
"And, why can't you help me?"
"We cannot break protocol. Return here when the Masters have instructed you to."
>The construct hovers into the air and speeds away. You eye the ornate front doors of the fancy palace.

Considering he was running Phfor 20 minutes, I'd say he was doing quite the Marathon.

>You look left, then right, then cautiously approach the front doors.
>Suddenly you hear a shout.
"STOP! Hold your ground, intruder!"
>A flurry of strange, four-legged things come charging out at you. They're equine, strangely equine. And they've quickly surrounded you.
'How helpful'
"Identify yourself, under order of the royal princesses!"
>You stand there, staring awkwardly at the ringleader of these strange, tiny armoured horses. If a spartan could display clueless, you're doing it.
"I said IDENTIFY yourself!"
>You decide to find your voice.
"I am Spartan S-184 of the United Nations Space Command Defense Force. I..."
>You pause for a moment.
"...Come in peace."
>The equine guards look at each other, then you again.
"I need to speak to whoever is inside this palace," you start.
>The guards seem to bristle at that thought.
"I was told they can help me find my way home."
>They remain silent for a moment.
"WE shall decide who you talk to right now, intruder. Follow us, but first relieve yourself of any weapons."
>His voice was strict. You decide to humour him and strip yourself of your weapons, beginning with your knife, which he was so obviously eyeing. You keep your sidearm.
"Empty your pouches," he orders.
>You look at him dryly for a moment, then begin the painstaking task of emptying your pouches.
"The device on your side. What is that?" a guard points to your sidearm.
"Medical injector," you lie. "In case I have an allergic reaction."
>They glance at each other. For a second you wonder if they'll make the connection between it and your other firearms, but they don't.
"Very well."
"Proceed after me, intruder," the lead guard orders.
>He begins leading you to the front door, and the other guards form around you. You follow obediently.

>The weight of your kit thuds against the granite tiles of the palace floors. You wonder if this place could handle the weight of a Spartan, like the ships and Forerunner structures you're so used to. The guards didn't seem warm to the idea of you cracking their fancy palace floors.
"Do you have interstellar travel?" you ask randomly.
>They look at you oddly.
"Interstellar... communication?"
>Their looks tell you no.
'Great'
"Whatever you require assistance with, intruder, we certainly cannot aid you. Our princesses, however, may be able to."
>You perk up at that comment.
"So this place is a totalitarian society?"
"Yes."
"Are your princesses humble?"
"Yes."
'Good. That will make this easier'
>You hold any further questions. You decide to divert your attention to the detail of the palace halls instead. You note how similar it looks to early human architecture, specifically medieval. You expect some sort of connection between humans and these creatures, due to the architectural similarities and the fact that you speak the same language. You wonder how large a hand the Forerunners play in this.
'The construct said this world isn't ready for my use. What exactly is this place meant to be, then?'
>You turn down a large, extravagant hall, lined with large golden torches and shining as if the sun shone directly into it. You then realize that might actually be happening. The torches aren't lit with fire, but with a strange, mystical source of light that shines like the sun itself. You quickly learn not to stare at the torches for too long.
'What is this place?' you wonder. 'The Forerunners MUST have a hand in all this.'
>At the end of the hall is a large ornate doorway, complete with a sprawling mosaic of two majestic looking horses, one beside the sun, and one beside the moon.
"The princesses are beyond these doors. Show them respect," the guard says.

>The large intricate doors swing open without so much as a tap. They appear to be made of solid gold, but by god, they don't move like it.
"Enter," an authoratative voice commands.
>You walk purposefully inside, noting the increase of light within the room and how your visor had actually reacted to it.
>Inside you see more of the guards, armed to the brim with flaring golden armour and shining polished spears. You could swear the guards behind you are 'ooing' and 'awing' at them.
>A heavy click resonates throughout the room as the doors gently shut behind you. You approach the princess and stop at the base of her throne, looking up at her intently.
"What is your name, my friend?"
>Her voice no longer holds such a commanding tone, rather, a kind one, yet one full of curiosity.
"I am Spartan S-184, of the United Nations Space Command."
>She looks at you trivially.
"Er.. Jeff," you add.
"Hello Jeff. It's most exciting to meet you. I am Princess Celestia, ruler of this land, along with my sister, Princess Luna, who will be here shortly. It seems you have found your way to Equestria. May I ask how?"
"Well, as I'm sure you've noticed, I'm a soldier, specifically, a scout. I was performing a recon assignment in... for lack of a better word, an "alien" environment, and I triggered a portal by mistake."
"One that brought you here."
"Yes."
>Celestia went deep into thought for a few moments.
"Tell me, Jeff, where exactly would you find a portal that leads to my home, and why?"
>You had to think for a moment to answer that one. Does she know about the Forerunners? The construct seemed pretty content that they would help you. Maybe they were trading favours. Oh well. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
"Do you know who the Forerunners are?"
>She gives you a puzzled look. So much for that.
"Who are they?"
>You had genuinely piqued her curiosity now. If you didn't get back on topic soon, this whole conversation would go nowhere.

"Well, I'm not entirely sure myself," you lie. "That's why we were investigating."
>The lead guard who escorted you suddenly appears from behind and approaches the princess. He whispers something to her.
"Jeff, who told you that I could help you? My captain informs me you mentioned that someone had sent you here."
>It seems this conversation just doesn't want to be avoided.
"Well, yes, I was sent here. It seems you have at least one Forerunner inhabitant living among you. It told me that you could help me find my way home. What it's doing here, I don't know."
>Celestia ponders this. She doesn't seem comfortable with the thought. You decide to play the innocence card and get things moving.
"I wish I could provide some sort of answer for you, but I honestly can't. All I can tell you is that I doubt the Forerunners mean you any harm, in fact, what we are beginning to discover is that their intentions are simply to preserve life."
>That oughta do it. You could already smell the stale coffee back at mess.
"Well," Celestia mused. "I suppose all you wish for is to return to the place you came from?"
"Precisely."
>Celestia looks troubled at that, as if she was almost dreading your answer. You don't feel guilty that she'll miss you, though.
"Very well," she says. "Before anything, I will need you to remove your helmet."
>You feel a bit of unease at that, but her face displays a genuine concern for you. You decide to oblige, and unmask yourself.
"Now," she says as she descends from her throne, all the while studying your features. "I will need you to focus on the place you came from. With that, I can take the picture in your mind, and work out the distance it is from here."
>You stare at her silently.
"What?"
"In Equestria, magic is one of our leading sources of energy. And it can be used to do a lot of things. Now, you must relax, focus solely on the place you wish to return to, and based on the information I collect, I shall determine if I can help you."

'She's gonna' do that with her MIND?'

"Simply relax, Jeff."
>You decide to focus on base camp, instead of Infinity. You don't want to find out she can't score a direct hit when the target is in the vacuum of space.
"Close your eyes and just focus. When I begin, you will feel a warm sensation. It may tingle, it won't hurt."
>Great. You thought you were done with tingling.
>You do as she instructed, making sure to include every last detail. You remember the place like the back of your hand. And she was right. When she began, you really started to tingle. It wasn't unpleasant.
"There," she said after a short time.
>You didn't want to jump to any conclusions, but her tone sounded sort of down cast.
"Well?" you press.
"It's what I expected," she answers. "That place is a very, very great distance from here. It will take me a long time to master a spell to transport you there, I'm afraid."
>She looks at you gultily. You suddenly realize how redundant this all is. Here you are relying on spells and magic, when there is a Forerunner bunker somewhere packed with methods to get you home. And you're a reclaimer. Well it's time to reclaim. Screw the construct.
"It's alright, princess. Do what you can, but in the mean time, may I have the freedom to pursue the Forerunners stationed here to further my research?"
>Celestia considers this.
"Very well," she replies. "Under watch of my guard, though."
>You nod politely.
"Understood."
"First, however," Celestia continues, "I would like for you to meet my sister, along with our honoured guest, someone who very much shares the same troubles you currently face."

>You hear the doors open behind you.
"Here they are," Celestia beamed.
>You turn to look, bracing yourself for another strange twist in your adventures. What you get isn't disapointing.
>Beside the regal-looking dark blue equine approaching you strides someone you never thought you'd have the honour of meeting.
>You look into the golden faceplate of a living legend, a Spartan-II Commando, one of the original soldiers that changed the face of the war and gave humanity its second chance. He was what you descended from. He was what gave people hope.
"Sister," Celestia said delightedly. "And Randall. A pleasure to see you both.
>As the hulking Spartan walks across the throne room to you, you rethink ever calling your kit heavy again.
>They stop before you. Princess Luna greets you, you simply nod at her.
"Sir!"
>You stand to and offer a salute to the grizzly Spartan. Aside from experience, he's got age on you as well. His voice doesn't hide that.
"At ease, Spartan," he orders.
>He's got the voice of a wise old vet. You briefly wonder how long he's been stuck here.
"Stuck in your kit this whole time, sir?"
"Didn't wanna blow the hatches. Thought I'd have made my way off this planet by now, but it seems you've gone and found me. Now why, Spartan-184, would you do that."
"UNSCs become pretty ambitious lately, sir. We've begun digging into some real heavy-duty Forerunner tech, but sometimes, mistakes happen. And now I'm here."
"Forerunner, huh? Well I don't know a lot about that, but you must. In which case, I've got something to show you."

nope this would be mine because I know people would of pre-ordered it and maybe even brought Xbones just to play it thinking it would be good

id say i hate halo 4 but i played that game to death on the campaign and no lifed multiplayer untill it all became too casual clubbing noobs and reaching max level.
and it still felt good

Even though the Spirit of Fire was sent to cover the Pillar of Autumn's escape as it was venting atmosphere. And the deployable bases don't count towards the Spirit of Fire's structural integrity, since they're technically bases just clipped on to the side for easy deployment. Otherwise, it could withstand a direct hit from a Covenant Destroyer.

>She smiles kindly at the Spartan-II.
"Perhaps it will," he replies.
"Very well," Princess Luna says. "You may wander as you please, but heed any restrictions our royal guards give to you. You may venture into the cave system beneath the palace, as you so enjoy doing, Randall, but make sure not to disturb anything."
"Of course," Randall answers.
>You nod in agreement.
"Follow me, Spartan. If you know anything about these "Forerunners," you might be able to identify something for me."
"Lead on, sir" you reply.
>You follow the valiant Spartan out of the throne room with an escort of guards. He leads you through the palace halls without breaking his stride. The guards struggle to maintain the effortless pace the two of you walk at. You find it oddly unrealistic for equines to be this small. But what do you know? You're not a horse person.
"Sir, if I may ask, how long have you been here?"
"Too long, petty officer. Too long," the Spartan replies.
>You note the indignation in his voice. You can't imagine how he must have felt becoming stranded here. A Spartan was meant to serve. Not sit on the sidelines in some weird magical land. You'll take it upon yourself to make sure he gets back to where he belongs. He's earned that much.
"What's your name, Spartan?" he asks.
>You feel strangely giddy at that.
"My name's Jeff," you answer.
"You can't believe how good it is to meet you, Jeff. It's good to see another Spartan. Gives an old soldier hope. So tell me..."
>You look up into his visor.
"Did we win?"
>You never imagined you'd be living the moment where you got to tell a missing Spartan-II what humanity has accomplished.
"We won in more ways than you can imagine, sir. We made the whole damn Covenant fall apart. And then we disproved their beliefs."

>Wait the fuck up.
>Didn't this guy die?
"Same here, Didn't you kill a Arbiter with a knife and Sacrifice yourself on Shield 459?"
>Forge: Glad people enjoyed me stabbing that ugly son of a bitch in the neck. And yes I did"
>Hold the fuck up.
"Does that mean.. I'm dead?"
>Forge: Sorry to say, but yup, seems like were both here in hell son, or whatever this place is..
>Well that confirms something. Were both dead and somehow in afterlife, still in our armor on this odd planet.
"How long have you been here Sir?"
>Forge: No need for formality. I'd say about 10 minuites as I just woke up
"Same here"
>Well we both have no idea what's around then
>And by some great coincidence afterlife is real.
"Any chance you see anything before you woke up here?"
>Forge: All I remember is being trapped in a Forerunner box room arming a nuke"
"I recall being encased in some bubble due to some Forerunner tech, Slipspace Incident"
>Fucking Forerunner shit

>>19215110
There is no good idea for a story that retarded. If its your first try writing then don't have rolls for the story, it won't end well. So far you have the 4chan ripoff of that shitty S-1337 from Halo legends, a dead seargent, and a non-rhyming zecora.

>The Spartan goes silent. The thumping of your boots echos down the hall as he ponders the news you just gave him. You hear him exhale a breath of relief before he turns his gaze to you.
"Well, don't stop there, Spartan. What else have you got?"
>You decide you'll savor this moment.
"Well," you begin. "The war's over, but things still aren't perfect, not yet. We've still got a lot of rogue aliens out and about, as well as the insurrectionist threat, which is starting to grow again. But with all the new tech we're accessing, most of it will hardly be a problem. For starters, we've got cruisers with shields now. We can crash straight through enemy warships. It's beautiful."
>He nods contently.
"And I'm sure you're wondering about the Master Chief. Well he's very much alive, sir, and he saved Earth from, well, they say it was the Covenant remnant, but most of us think it was something else. Something Forerunner."
>He remains silent for a few seconds. The guards are still struggling to keep up with you.
"The last we heard, he was headed down to Bravo-6 for a debrief," you add.
"And of the other Spartan-IIs, do you know how many are left and where they're situated?"
"Negtive, sir. It's all classified. But a lot of us wish it wasn't."
>He pauses again.
"What is the Covenant remnant?"
"Just a fleet of Covenant we're facing off against for control of a Forerunner world called Requiem," you answer. "They're nothing like the original Covenant, a lot less funded, smaller, and the elites don't even have armour that covers their arms. They have drive though. But it's only a matter of time until we wipe them out. We're at a ceasefire with the rest of the elites. These ones are just radicals."
"You're kidding. A ceasefire?"
"Yes sir. We allied with them to destroy the Covenant leader before he could wipe out every bit of life in the galaxy. After that, we agreed to a ceasefire. Personally, I think we're the ones on top now."

>>19219464
I'd bet money the guards are gonna ask what elites and the covenant are then ask about the " it's only a matter of time until we wipe them out." bit..

>>19219679
The guards are too busy trying to keep up. They're probably breathing so hard they can't hear shit.

>>19219709
Trust me, if you're escorting an two aliens with tech you've never seen, and heard "Only a matter of time before we wipe them out" you'd want to figure shit out before they do something dangerous, but you have a point though

>>19219766
"Wipe them out? Yeah, we have chess tournaments every year, we're gonna win this time,"
or
"We're at war with an enemy that has no hesitation with turning a whole planet to ashes, and even less regret after the feat. You should thank us for being on your side,"

>>19219464
Wonder what he would think of the flood, how Africa got glassed, and how new phoenix got completely destroyed in ten seconds with six million casualties.

>You turn down a hall with more of the bright golden torches mounted on the walls. You realize how magnificently the golden light they cast reflects off the Spartan IIs Mjolnir. You peer down at your own suit. The light doesn't reflect off yours.
"So we're the king of the castle now," he muses.
>You wonder how surreal this must seem to him. He probably went MIA during a time when humanity was headed towards defeat. Now here you are, explaining the colossal turn of events that led to humanity becoming the ones on top. He must have thought he was dreaming. You suddenly wonder what the quiet little guards behind you are interpreting from all this.
"The caves are straight ahead."
>His voice is back to its regular tone. Back down to business.
"So what exactly is down there, sir?"
"A secret passage I discovered that no one knew about. It's a hidden door, but no one knows where it leads to. We decided not to pry, because there are some nasty-looking guards out front. "
>That sounds like the Forerunner style. You know how much the Forerunners like their underground complexes. The Spartan pushes open the large metal door at the end of the hall and proceeds inside. Beyond the door, it's completely dark. You glance back at the small guards looking up at you uncomfortably and wonder if they'll be able to see. One of them lights a strange little ball of luminescense with its horn.
"These are the caves."
>You step through the door and glance around at the setting inside. The walls and ceiling seem to a mix of crystal and rock, and are harsh and jagged in nature. The ground is more or less the same, with a mix of dirt and stalagmites. A few meters ahead of you is a circular stairwell carved into the walls, with a long drop to the bottom in the middle. You peer down it and barely make out the reflection of light off the crystals far below.
"It's not far. Come on."

>You begin filing down the stairs in a single-file line. The stairs crack and chip beneath the two of you, but they hold your weight. The equines follow you carefully.
"So where have you been staying if you've been living here all this time?"
"Celestia allowed me to reside in the palace. There's an abundance of spare bedrooms, if you were wondering."
>You suddenly stumble as a large chunk of rock comes loose beneath you. You decide to keep one hand on the wall.
"So how many other Spartans are there, Jeff?"
>It feels odd for him to call you by name.
"Thousands, sir," you answer. "And it's all volunteer. Our techs have really outdone themselves. At this rate, the UNSC won't have a thing to worry about. We're stronger than ever."
>The Spartan doesn't reply. His silence doesn't seem as joyful as it previously had.
"Sir, if I may, how did you wind up here?"
>He takes a deep breath.
"Not through good luck. I wasn't the lucky one. It began with a confidential operation to recover a potential high-value asset from a Covenant invasion force. An asset I now think is 'Forerunner.'"
"What was it?"
"This."
>He reaches into a pouch and displays a jet black chip to you with very few features on it aside for a few symmetrical indentations. In fact, it closely resembles the device that brought YOU here.
"Do you know what it's for?" you quickly ask.
"No, but I know what it can do."
>His tone turns grim.
"It can make a Spartan vanish, and reappear somewhere very, very far away."
>He stops and turns back to you.
"In a field."
>You stand there silently.
"I know what you mean, sir."
>He eases up at that.
"Well, that actually makes me feel better."
>You descend the rest of the stairs in comfortable silence. You've got a lot on your mind. When you woke up this morning, you weren't expecting life to throw a curveball like this at you. Then again, you're positive 'expect the unexpected' was on the job description.

Not that anon, but it's not just about the armor. Spartan IVs are mass produced in the Halo games, so they're a tiny bit better than ODSTs.

>>19206491
We got CE and 2 already on PC, you just gotta go online somewhere to buy the disks.

>>19223304
no, only the armor is better than ODST gear. the IVs are ODSTs. any trooper that was going to be a ODST got 'drafted' into being a spartan

>>19223304
Spartan IVs and the armor that accompanies them are the safer, most recent version of the program. Eventually it will graduate to Spartan V, and so on.

But they have only been here for one game. Spartan IIIs were made as a sort of fire-and-forget thing, and were considered expendable as shit with few exceptions.

Also, this is the way of most military advancement. You make the initial prototype run, then you work on making a mass production model: reliability and cost become the driving factor here rather than raw power and ability at this point.

Once they have the mass production model, then they can work on improving it while keeping the costs and reliability of it at approximately the same level.

The augments are safer to introduce at this stage but don't have the radical effects of the Spartan II graduates. The armor for them is what makes up the difference, but it still isn't safe to wear the armor if you aren't augmented yourself.

tl:dr vers: Spartan 4 isn't better than Spartan 2 outright because it is the mass production model. It's the first run. Give them another couple of iterations and every new Spartan will wind up as good as a Spartan 2.
