The group with the Warthog (McLees, Sigurd, and Geoff), get to the target first, spotting six Elites, four Ghosts, a Wraith, and what looks like a Spectre. McLees and Geoff attract their attention, drawing the Wraith into range of Sigure's Warthog cannon, but McLees is killed by Needler rounds to the head and back. Stacker's group appears, flanking the Elites and killing all of them. They go in the Forerunner structure whil Geoff and Sigurd guard the door. The three marines proceed into an underground chamber where they are soon ambushed and massacred by more Elites, the only [[Covenant]] alien featured in the Trailer. One Elite in particular is depicted wielding an energy sword in one hand and a large [[Energy Shields|Energy Shield]] on his other arm. It is possible that it was shrunken and transferred over to the [[Jackals]] in the Final game. Wang is killed by the Elite with the sword, and Laine is killed on the ramp back to the door. Stacker is killed urging the remaining marines to fall back. Sigurd covers the door while Geoff takes a Ghost and flies off. Sigurd fails to kill the Major Elite running to a Ghost to pursue Geoff, and is shot by three Minor Elites. A wounded McLees detonates a [[grenade]] to take out the Minors before they can fly off in the Spectre vehicle, destroying all the vehicles there. | The group with the Warthog (McLees, Sigurd, and Geoff), get to the target first, spotting six Elites, four Ghosts, a Wraith, and what looks like a Spectre.

The Major and two Banshees pursue Geoff and destroy his Ghost. Geoff is wounded, out of ammo, and about to be killed, when the Master Chief appears with an Energy Sword. The Chief then impales the Elite with the [[Energy Sword]]. Geoff is evacuated while the Master Chief tells him that his fight is just starting. | The Major Elite and two Banshees pursue Geoff and destroy his Ghost.
