Transcript
''The audience sees many points of reddish light, apparently stars, against a black background. In the foreground, one of these sends small curling sparks throughout columns of smoky material; the lights resolve themselves as neurons in a human body, sending slow pulses to one another.''

Cortana: (muffled) "John, wake up!"

Cortana: (muffled) "I need you!"

The neural pulses reach the heart.

Cortana: (muffled) "Please!"

The heart begins beating, and the neural pulses race up the spine to the brain.

Cortana: (muffled) "Wake up, John!"

''The brain awakens, and the camera rapidly zooms out to show John-117 inside of his cryotube. His helmet's flashlights activate, and he slightly moves his head back and forth."

Cortana: "Chief!"

John, now wide awake, forcibly throws open the cryotube and rushes to Cortana's pedestal.

Cortana: "John..."

John-117: "I'm here."

John and Cortana turn to see the Forward Unto Dawn'' exploding and collapsing. John stows Cortana's chip in his helmet, and pushes off the pedestal to speed down the hallway. Taking advantage of the microgravity, he uses a pair of thrusters on his armor to maneuver through the girders and debris in the imploding hallway. He grabs a floating pistol and blasts a piece of debris out of the way, and stops his movement by grabbing a protruding girder. Now standing on the edge of the Forward Unto Dawn, John reloads his pistol and stares out into space. The camera turns to show an enormous iris-like opening in what appears to be a Forerunner machine or spacecraft.''

Blackout, then the Halo 4 title is shown as the Halo Theme plays, followed by Holiday 2012.
