Data emisji: Kwi 11, 2009

The episode begins on an Elite factory (Assembly) as a pair of Elites discuss how the ringworld "Halo" is a danger to the Elites homeworld and the order to destroy all of the Spartans on Avalanche is given. Although there were plans to negotiate the Spartans to leave the ringworld and not destroy it, those plans was cancelled because if the Spartans knew what the Elites were hiding, they wouldn't be in room for negotiation. Meanwhile, Darknal and Cosmic finds from Stormray that they have finally decoded the Spartan evacuation message and discover that Halo, 6 months ago headed for a portal of some type and the majority of the UNSC forces evacuated immediately. It is also learned that the ringworld was heading towards the Elite homeworld, which explains the rapid and ever-continuing growth of Elite numbers. Meanwhile, a White Spartan soldier reports in, in the interior of the Avalanche base (Orbital), that the Elites have begun moving out to attack the base on Avalanche. Soon the two massive armies of Elites and Spartans meet in a standoff. The battle begins as the first wave of Elites armed with Energy Swords confront the frontline Spartans wielding Gravity Hammers. Then, Elites wielding range weapons like Needlers and Spikers form the back of the first wave. Spartans armed with Rifles, SMGs and Pistols deal with them, and Warthogs soon follow out, taking out masses of Elites. However, the Elites used a couple of Wraiths to counter them, and the power of each Plasma Mortar kills the Warthog drivers and gunners, but however it sends the Warthogs flying back into the air, and landing on the ground splattering the charging Spartans. Meanwhile in outer space, the missing end of UNSC Forward Unto Dawn orbits around the Elites' homeworld and heads toward the Halo ringworld. Inside the Avalanche base, it is detected by Stormray, but he chose to ignore it due to the fact they can't tell if there's lifeforms on-board. As the casualties of the Spartans begin to increase, Stormray orders Spartans inside the base to be armed with Rocket Launchers, get into the battlefront and destroy as much as they can. The second wave of Elites arrives and the current frontline Spartans are ordered to hold their positions, which soon fails as they come under heavy fire from Elite Infantry units and the Wraiths' Plasma Mortars, and suffer heavy casualties. However, the Rocket Launcher-armed Spartans are ready, where they assemble on the top of the base and soon fire dozens of Rockets into the battlefield, killing tons of Elites in the process. However, in order not to take too much losses, the Elites counter the Rockets back with Banshees. Although the Banshees get destroyed by the Rockets, they eventually have some success in taking out several Rocket Launcher-armed Spartans, and more Banshees are still to come. Part 7gMaster Chief's Appearance Discovering the incoming Wraiths, Stormray, Cosmic and Darknal head out to stop them only to find that majority of their forces are gone, and most of the remaining Spartans retreat and find for cover. A few Spartans were brave enough to pilot Warthogs and a Scorpion to take the Wraiths out, although one of the Wraiths was destroyed, the vehicles were eventually destroyed. When all hope seems lost, and the Elites seem to be winning, Darknal, who took cover behind a burning Warthog looks up to see a Spartan in green armor (Master Chief) in front of him, and the then says "Looks like you need a hand". Darknal, confused about who the Spartan really is, does not reply but instead sees the Spartan heading out to the battlefield. The other remaining White Spartans make a last effort to stop the incoming Elite army from reaching the Avalanche base, and the Master Chief reinforces them, taking out a few Elites along the way, a couple of Banshees, and ultimately hijacking and destroying the second and last Wraith besieging the base, with the help of a Bubble Shield. Following the slow-motion explosion of the Wraith, the ending ends with a "To be continued".
