Sigmael, a hunter, asked to an elite:«I'm sorry, but I don't quite understand the rules of this game, if we can call this a game.
-Well, it's very simple to understand. Each time the humans -for example- destroy one of those robots, they get one point. There is about a hundred of robots. The group who has got the highest number of points will have a map to the motherplanet of any group of their choice. Plus, they'll receive a strategy to board the planet they've chosen. Is that clear ?
-I think I'll deal with the flow of information you've given
-Good, and now may you please get with the rest of the group of hunters please?
-Why should I do that?
-Oh, just because... THE FIGHT HAS ALREADY STARTED!!!
-Ok, ok, calm down, calm down, I'm going.»
But the elite was right, because the orders were flowing from everywhere.
«Grenades away! shouted the master chief, and a flow of grenades flown to the robots, killing 10 of them.
-get the ghosts and the warthog's out, said Cortana to all of the garages, and free 11 of them of their drivers, and the master chief and all the spartans got into them, destroying about 20 of them.
-get us banshees, said the master chief in his helmet, and right after, he was in the air, evading lasers and firing plasma bolts and plasma rifle, destroying 17 others.
-Everybody must get in the fight now, said the master chief when he was suddenly hit by a laser. I'm hit! I'm gonna touch down and--!! he hasn't finished his phrase that he touched down into a group of robots. he jumed and fired with his plasma rifle and killed 3 of them before he could escape from them. and he took a rocket launcher and fired it on the last of them.
-I have now gotten the number of points in each team, said the monitor. in 3rd place, the floods with 15 points. The 2nd with 42 points are...the covenant so that means that the humans win with 43 points!!!!!!
-Yes, I knew we would win, said cortana with a sound that looked like laughing, but she then suddenly said call everyone back to his own ship, you don't remember about the plan we made before the competition?
-ah, yes, the plan, EVERYONE BACK TO HIS RESPECTIVE SHIP, AND NO DISSCUSION!, he souted to everyone who could hear it and he added to the monitor: I'm sorry but I'll have to go, I hope you don't mind ?
-not at all and take this map, which was the convinced prize I think?
-Yes it was and then he run away at full speed in his fighter and while he was going, he said :glass the planet.
And the ships started to glass before the monitor knew what was happenning to this place and he was already immobile. but when the master chief opened the map he found a small chip of recording that he pluged in his helmet. An then, he saw the monitor saying:«Ah, congratulations for your victory. By the way this was a test, an experimentation of teammates between multiple species, and everyone past it successfully by cooperating together. So, you see, my friend, I wasn't as crasy as you were thinking, and that everyone can be in peace in the universe. End of recording, EXPECTED HALT X(3AF2/E68T/DF10).»when the master chief saw this, he said to Cortana, with a sobbing voice:«Cortana, please send this recording to the other ships before they pass to light speed and also send it with this message to earth and to the motherplanet of the covenant.
And when all the humans and the covenant saw the message, they called back their ships to their planet and created a civilisation together on Reach, which was almost entierly deglassed. A civilisation of peace. And the message was saying:«Today, we were able to destroy a menace for humankind with the help of our old enemies. This means that peace is possible when another new enemy gets in the way. And I hope that someday, all the representative of all the worlds in the universe will shake the hands of everyone else in the universe, and that peace will remain as long as possible for all the years to come. At least, this his my greatest hope.And my second greatest is that the monitor will not escape, or at least that he'll stop tring to destroy all species.
end of transmission».
The end
