Halo: The Forgotten Spartans

Part 10A (1x11)

Air date: Aug 29, 2012

The episode begins where the last one took off. Conan immediately runs towards the Spartans looking down on him. Cosmic is stunned looking upon his newly infected friend. Stomray orders Mitch to shoot Conan but most shots are missed. Those that connect did no damage. As Conan approaches he hits a brute chopper towards the base in rage and continues pursuing the Spartans. As a result of this the Spartans decide to fire upon Conan knowing he won’t stop. Master Chief orders Mitch to give him the sniper rifle so he can take the shot himself. Conan jumps towards the Spartans but Chief puts a bullet in his head. Conan falls to the ground when the Spartans go to finish the job. Just before Chief fires again, Cosmic stands in the way telling the Chief that he’s already dead and there is no need for another shot. The Spartans go into cold storage where Cortana explains what needs to happen. She tells the Spartans that one group must get supplies and meet the other Spartans at the Relic once the index is activated. Stormray agrees to be the one to stay behind and sacrifice himself for the rest of the Galaxy. He must jump from 10,000 feet at the time Cortana over charges the cores in a hole to set off a plasma charged explosive that will make the cores implode and cause the ring to collapse. The index will send out a signal big enough for the UNSC to find them so Kootra, Mitch and Cosmic head out for supplies and Darknal, Stormray and the Chief activate the index with Cortana. The Elite Captain hints that Librius will do the right thing working for the Spartans. He also stops all pursues of the Spartans and to concentrate on defending the core. Cortana activates the index and you see how the electrical signal is sent to Zenith, a UNSC battle ship. The General orders to slip space to the location of the lost ring where they are met by an awaiting covenant space force. They battle it out as Zenith sends a frigate down to investigate. Meanwhile Cosmic, Mitch and Kootra turn up at Longshore to pick up supplies. They are met by a wave of infected Spartans and Marines. Kootra manages to hold the swarms off whilst Mitch saves Cosmic who is trapped by a locked fence. Once Mitch opens the fence, Cosmic runs past the bridge shooting the fusion cores to kill the chasing Flood. Everything is secure until Conan turns up behind Kootra, with giant tentacles that he uses to splatter Kootra out of existence. Cosmic equips a flame throwing and knows he must destroy his friend. He jumps into the air down to Conan’s level where he sets him on fire. Cosmic runs behind a wall where he dares to look at his burning friend die. The Covenant attack one of the Frigates in space and send in Air assault Elites to penetrate the hull of the ship. The Elites end up taking over this ship. Part 10b starts in Sandtrap where Darknal, Stormray, Chief and Librius turn up to take out the Relic. They are chased by some banshees and a small battle takes place to get into the relic but the Elite Captain orders the area to be glassed to stop the Spartans. However, the Spartans manage to seal the door before the area is glassed so the Elites end up glassing themselves. Inside the relic base Cosmic turns up with Mitch and explains Kootra didn’t make it. Darknal orders everyone to check and secure the area. Once Darknal is alone, Librius walks up behind Darknal and equips his sword. Darknal turns and shoots but it’s too late. They end up hitting each other. Librius is killed instantly whilst Darknal survives long enough to speak to Cosmic before he dies. They both utter the words “We fight together, we die together” as Darknal dies. The Spartans make their way to Valhalla where they are met by Pelicans sent down by the General of Zenith. Cosmic goes with Stormray to the cores whilst Chief and Mitch go back to the main ship. The frigate is left to follow Stormrays and Comsics Pelican so that Cosmic can return to Zenith once Stormray has made the jump. The Pelican is flying over the cores ready for action as the Elites defending the area hold off the swarms of flood attacking them on the surface. Stormray makes his final speech before realising Cosmic has made the jump instead. Cosmic, losing his friends on the ring would rather be the one to do the sacrificing, rather than be without his squad. Cosmic during mid flight has flash backs of his time with his squad before equipping the plasma grenade to destroy the cores. The pelican with Stormray, flies back to the frigate where it meets up with the Zenith ship. Master Chief and Stormray prepare the portals between the ring and the Elites planet so the planet isn’t destroyed in the rings blast. The Zenith General asks why they are saving the Elite planet and Stormray explains it was the last wish of Squad Omega. The ring explodes and bits of the blast and ring itself go through the portal missing the planet and safely out the other portal into space. The screen fades out where it shows you the main characters and their actors before the credits start to roll.
