''Blue Team are teleported into a Forerunner hallway. They look around uncertainly.''

The Spartans start to head down the hallway.


 * John: "Cortana, answer me."

Fade to black.

''Fade to John's point of view. He keeps walking, but a spawn gate teleports in the Warden Eternal. He grabs and lifts John in the air with a constraint field.''


 * Warden: "You allow them an audience. You risk all in the name of... what, Cortana?"


 * Cortana (COM): "Warden. Don't."


 * Warden: "They mean to undo your plans. They will disperse your Guardians-"


 * Cortana (COM): "Leave, Warden!"

''The Warden looks around in surprise as his body begins to glow. His pieces fly apart and are carried away up the ceiling. John lands and gets to his feet.''

GETTING THE BAND BACK TOGETHER
{Gameplay}


 * Cortana (COM): "I'm sorry. I didn't think he could get in here."


 * John: "Enough games. You brought the Guardians here. Why?"


 * Cortana (COM): "Forerunners used the Guardians to keep troublesome worlds in line. I intend to do the same."


 * Kelly: "You what?"


 * Cortana (COM): "If there is no trouble, there will be no need for discipline. I have work to do now, John. Come to me. Quickly."

''The Spartans pass into the next room, which has no walls and is surrounded by the dark clouds of the Domain. The Warden's voice echoes across it.''


 * Warden: "When Cortana first found Genesis, I swore to protect her."

Spawn gates open and teleport into many Promethean Crawlers.


 * John: "He wants a fight, Blue Team."


 * Fred-104: "Let's give him one."


 * Warden: "My pledge stands even though she now resists."
