==Official Summary== | |||
The Chief is questioned about where the Key of Osanalan is on the Forerunner Dreadnaught, while UNSC forces on Io try contacting him through his helmet. The Brute Chieftain interrogates the Chief, and he gives a reply, telling him it meant "to always strip your enemies of weapons before you interrogate him." He promptly sticks a plasma grenade up his privates, blowing him and several grunts and jackals nearby. Some surviving grunts get together, trying to find the escaped Chief. The scene cuts to Cleveland, where the humans are gathered together, questioned by a brute on the Key of Osanalan, Ruwan knows exactly what it was. The brute, ordering the humans to bring him the key, got his sentence cut off, and is attacking by ODST troops dropping off from Hornets. Everyone flees, and as Myras Tyla escapes, she questions how she had lived her life, and blames it all on her boyfriend Philip. With twisted fervor, she pushes herself to escape, while thinking of spending a new life with Ruwan. She picks up a fallen plasma pistol. Everyone is in chaos, Myras, having found Ruwan, escapes together, and ride a Passenger Warthog to safety. They head to a section of the city that wasn't under attack, Myras killing off three grunts with an overcharged plasma pistol. They help themselves to some supplies on the Warthog, and set up a little camp for themselves. They chatted a while, and almosted kissed. Suddenly, the ground shakes and chunking sounds are heard, and a Scarab appears, while to run to relative safety. Back on the Forerunner ship, the Chief kills off some patrolling grunts. switching to a carbine, he heads to another section of the ship, responding to Io station along the way. He holds up the carbine, and sighting at the Prophet of Truth, he fires a round. | |||
