Level 1: Meet Cortana
Location: High Charity
Inside an unidentified Covenant transport:
(There is an optional targeting practice like the previous ones on Cairo and Pillar of Autumn)
CINEMATIC:
(Craft flies across the screen and towards High Charity which has a large chunk taken away. Inside the Covenant transport)
Arbiter: Who is this A.I. you speak off?
Miranda Keyes: She's called Cortana. We've been picking up her signals from High Charity for a long time. I don't know what's been going on down there but we have to find her.
Arbiter: Agreed.
(Trasnport soars towards High Charity and the Arbiter's voice speaks)
Arbiter: Can you tell me where "Cortanae" is so I can land in the right hangar?
(Back inside transport)
Miranda Keyes: It's Cortana, and she's coming from right here.
(Keyes points towards a flashing red dot on the hologram of High Charity)
Sergeant Johnson: Land in that hangar there
(He points towards a hangar on the pilot's view screen. View screen shows the ground coming closer as the Arbiter is landing the craft. Camera turns towards transport's Grav-lift as Elite Councillours drop down followed by Miranda and Johnson)
Sergeant Johnson: Let 'em have hell!
END CINEMATIC
Chapter 1: Arriving
Objective: Find Cortana
Brutes fill the hangar. When you kill them the door unlocks but swarms of Drones enter the room through airvents followed by Infection Forms which immediately nibble at some of the slower Drones. The next corridor contains Jackals fighting Elites, Grunts and Carrier forms. If you take long in the hangar there may be Infection Forms from the destroyed Carrier Forms. If you stop to kill the Jackals and Carrier Forms the Elites and Grunts remaining (if there are any will folow you).
Chapter 2: Home
(Checkpoint)
You then enter the place where it all began for the Arbiter. The Holy Mausoleum. Hunters are fighting Drones and Brutes in here with many Combat forms breaking out of the Arbiter graves. The Infection forms had got inside and infected the previous Arbiters. Once you destroy everything in the room including extra waves of Brute and Jackal reinforcements, and more Combat Forms, Cortana appears on the center pedestal.
CINEMATIC:
Cortana: You made it!
(She turns her head towards the Arbiter and his Elites)
Sergeant Johnson: Freinds.
Cortana: I see
Miranda Keyes: Okay Cortana, what's going on here
Cortana: Who knows anything about an Ark?
Arbiter: The Oracle told us
Cortana: It's just left hasn't it?
Miranda Keyes: Yes thats what he said
Arbiter: But we came here first
Sergeant Johnson: We got your signals so we came to get you
Cortana: Anything from the Chief?
Miranda Keyes: No, nothing
Cortana: Okay then, you have to get to Earth
Arbiter: We have to stop Truth.
Cortana: Excatly, I'll see you all at the hangar bay
(Cortana dissapears)
END CINEMATIC
Chapter 3: Back to the Hangar
Objective: Get back to the Hangar
(Checkpoint)
Miranda walks over to the door you came through but it's locked.
Miranda Keyes: It's locked, Cortana
Cortana (over ComLink): Ma'am, I'm afraid I can't overide that security system. Take the door on the opposite side. You're going to have to take a detour. (When you aprroach the door) Wait, I'm picking up movement. Watch out!
The door explodes sending shards everywhere and Sentinels emerge. Combat Forms are chasing them. Whenever either you or the Flood attack them they begin to fight back. When you destroy all over the Sentinels and/or all of the Combat Forms (Whichever comes first) Brutes and Jackals come from behind you down a Grav-Lift. When you go out of the Mausoleum you are on another bridge. When you reach the middle Infection Forms climb over the edge and surround you immediately. They are VERY high in number. Johnson who still has his Particle Beam Rifle from Halo 2 puts it away and takes out double SMGs. Miranda hands you one of hers and you can choose to take it or not. When you kill them all the next door opens but there are no enemies.
Cortana (over ComLink): Take a left at the end of the corridor
The bending corridor contains thousands of Flood spores and large "blobs" in the corners that look like the bodies of Carrier Forms. There are only some small Infection Forms scurring across the floor. At some point in the corridor two Grunts (If there are any left) start to talk.
Grunt 1: Me got a bad feeling about this
Grunt 2: You always got bad feeling about something
Grunt 1: Not always, this time me have very bad feeling because me hates Flood
Elite: Quiet, you are squabbling over nothing while our lifes are at risk!
There are many corpses and bits of metal from Sentinels. Two dead Hunters lie in the middle of the T-junction. The door on the right is locked. When you walk through the door on the left you hear screams of Elites, Grunts and Hunters and infront of you are hundreds of their corpses. You have entered The Inner Sactumn through a secret passage and you see Half-jaw being pulled into a hole by Gravemind's tentacles.
Half-jaw: No! No! Noooo!
His screams die down after a while. If you jump down and attemp to save him you fall through a seemingly bottomless pit. You die half-way down. The lift that the Mater Chief entered through earlier is down at the bottom and if you jump down the door is locked so you have to activate the lift to get back up. When you walk through the door that the Chief entered through earlier (which is still open) two cowering SecOps Grunts who have dropped their Rod Cannons you can pick them up if you want but be ready to listen because the Grunts are talking to you.
SpecOps Grunt 1: It was horrible, they came and dragged our comrades away
SpecOps Grunt 2: The Sanheili were sceaming at us.
SecOps Grunt 1: I can't believe the Great Journey is a lie!
No matter how much you wait they will not move, If you kill one the other will just run around in fright. The door the Chief walked through is locked however and you take another door on the left. Then you reach another hangar. However, it is filled to the brink with Flood of all types, Elite and Human Combat Forms are still rising from the floor fresh from being infected.
Cortana (over ComLink): I'm remote plioting a Phantom to your position now, sorry I had to pick the hangar with all the Flood in it
Chapter 4: Onslaught
Objective: Wait for the ship that Cortana is remote piloting to you
(Checkpoint)
Sergeant Johnson: Next time check before you-- Ah get off me!
Both Miranda and Johnson are invincible so you don't have to worry about them dying. Sometimes more Flood climb over the edge and join the battle so the wave never ends. (After a little while of fighting)
Cortana (over ComLink): Wait a minute, Theres another Phantom closing on your position! But there's life signs onboard, only one, and injured
CINEMATIC
(A Phantom lands in the hangar and opens its grav-lift
Half-jaw (Weakily): Get... in
Arbiter: Half-jaw what are you doing here?
(The Arbiter goes on first talking to him)
Half-jaw: Never mind that lets go!
(Everyone climbs aboard and the camera cuts to outside the Phantom. Gravemind's tentacles wrap around the Phantom as it tries to pull away)
Gravemind (referring to Cortana and Half-jaw): You have not answered and you have not suffered...
(His voice drifts away slowly)
Sergeant Johnson: C'mon, Go! Go!
Gravemind: Nooooo!
(The Phantom Eventually pulls away and the screen goes white about to cut to Earth and the next level)
