 Good to see you, Master Chief. Things aren't going well. Cortana did her best, but we never really had a chance.

In Halo 1 they're the ultimate zombie that comes flying out of the closet
It's a virulent strain of alien that as it kills it grows, and as it grows it kills.
No human life signs detected. The Captain... he's one of them!
Halo 1 does such a brilliant thing: this is what the world's about. (ffft) All of sudden you meet the Flood, and the world you realize is about something completely different.
We can't let the Flood get off this ring. You know what he'd expect... what he'd ''want'' us to do. It's done. I have the code.
When the Flood comes out the Covenant's just as much food as you are.
The Covenant's fighting the Flood, simultaneously fighting Earth, and you're fighting the Flood and the Covenant at the same time. It's like this crazy triangle of conflict.
The Halo's were built to destroy the Flood.
The Forerunner built this place, what they called a "Fortress World."
The reason there's no more Forerunners is they died fighting the Flood, and the Halo's were like their last option.
The Flood is spreading, if we activate Halo's defences we can wipe them out.
Halo doesn't kill Flood, it kills their food. Humans, Covenant, whatever! We're all equally edible. The only way to stop the Flood is to starve them to death, and that's exactly what Halo is designed to do: wipe the galaxy clean of all sentient life.
You're caught between a rock and a hard place. You can't kill the Flood without firing the rings, but you can't fire the rings without killing everybody else.
That's not going to happen.
Pretty much it's kind of a non-discriminatory weapon, you know, it's a hammer to kill an ant. But you do something clever in the first game.
The Master Chief has managed to destroy the Halo itself so that it doesn't go off and kill everybody on Earth with it.
Which destroys the Flood infestation that's been unleashed and conveniently takes out your Covenant enemies at the time.
Halo, it's finished.
No, I think we're just getting started.
