The '''''Keep It Clean''''' trailer was released on September 25th, [[2008]] at 7:07pm PST, during the one year anniversary of ''[[Halo 3]]''. It is the first glimpse of ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'', a prologue to the campaign of ''Halo 3''. | |||

The point of view has now become that of [[Superintendent (Construct)| The Superintendent]], who cuts back to the skyscraper view, this time with an overlay of information similar to the Bungie.net lock page, and the term "[[Tanaga]].0086" in the lower right side, before switching to a view of a street with several cars and a banner labeled ''< evacuate >'' with "City of New Mombasa" below in the left and in the foreground and a burning object in the background, with "Tanaga.0086" replaced by "[[Lumumba]].0624". Switching to another view of skyscrapers, this time from a street-level point, the Superintendent tilts his view camera up some and sees many HEVs rocketing through the sky, choosing to zoom in on a [[Dare's Shock Trooper Squad|particular squad]] that is going in a direction perpendicular to that of the primary group, while noting that they lack the proper authorization to do so. | ||
Suddenly, a massive blue-white [[Electromagnetic | Suddenly, a massive blue-white [[Electromagnetic Pulse|EMP]] explosion occurs as the ''[[Solemn Penance]]'' escapes into [[Slipspace]], shaking the camera. The Superintendent cuts to another skyscraper view that is level with the buildings, watching as the explosion grows larger. As a shockwave smashes into the city, the Superintendent cuts to the HEVs, seeing many of them flying wildly off course. Another cut shows more buildings being caught in the rapidly expanding explosion, with HEVs being blown crazily through the sky. Then the explosion swallows at the camera and all goes black. | ||

Another view briefly shows the former near-pristine street view before switching to the current state: in ruins. More views of skyscrapers show the damage to the city until it reaches an apparently damaged camera, which is tilted with blurred overlay. | ||
The last view shows a lone HEV pod streaking through the sky. After hitting supersonic speed, the pod slams into the side of a building, creating incredible clouds of smoke. The Superintendent mechanically begins performing the standard procedure for identification of a typical vehicle accident, and concludes that the individual within had a 99.99% chance of fatality | The last view shows a lone HEV pod streaking through the sky.

Fast forwarding to 6 hours later | Fast forwarding to 6 hours later, the city is now dark and rainy, and a lone [[Phantom]] floats through the area, searching for enemies. To the Superintendent's great surprise, he begins picking up movement from the crash site, and watches as the pod's door flies open. | ||
The point-of-view has now become that of [[ | The point-of-view has now become that of [[The Rookie]], who cautiously climbs out the vehicle, armed with a new variant of the [[M7S Caseless Submachine Gun]]. As the [[ODST]] dodges the Phantom's sweep, his [[Visual Intelligence System, Reconnaissance|VISR]] identifies a pack of [[Brutes]] patrolling the streets, armed with [[Spiker]]s, [[Covenant Carbine]]s and a [[Fuel Rod Gun]]. One Brute stops to sniff the air and then, apparently as a threat to would-be attackers, barks with determined ferocity before continuing on. The Rookie stays in the shadows until their patrol leaves, and then, seeing a light reflecting off of his armor, examines a large video screen looming above the wrecked street. It is the work of The Superintendent, who is displaying the words "Keep Right" with directional arrows, and then "Proceed with Caution" as an aid to the lost soldier. Taking his advice, The Rookie charges down the streets. | ||
