The film would be 16 minutes long, and rely on computer-generated imagery as well as that of live-action. ''Faith'' was intended to be released on November 20, 2011, and had finished principal photography, but the film ended up being put on hold indefinitely.

It is the Fall of Reach and the four SPARTAN-IIs of White Team, White 1 Anton-044, White 2 Malcolm-059, White 3, and White 4, are prepared to assist in the battle. An unnamed admiral tasks them with reinforcing the evac point at the Manassas Spaceport, where the troops defending the Kilo 1 orbital defense generator are expected to fall back should they fail. As their Falcons cross the mountain range, they are attacked by Covenant anti-aircraft fire, taking out White 3 and White 4. Malcom reports the Covenant troops are breaking from attacking Manassas to the generator outpost, while Anton picks up a distress hail from Isaac-039, on the ground defending with the troops. He reports the generator is damaged though still functional, but all the Marines and Green Team are dead, and the Covenant is mobilizing additional forces, including a Scarab, to attack the outpost. Hearing this, Anton and Malcolm abandon their original mission so they can defend the generator with Isaac, and leap from their Falcon after it flies them over.

The three Spartans assemble and fight a swarm of charging Covenant, Anton using a minigun, the other two with assault rifles. Anton fights a Mgalekgolo approaching him, and when his machine gun fails to do anything to it, kills it with a pair of pistols piercing its weak points. Isaac, however, is trying hard to not be overrun, but ends up being killed by a Sangheili with an energy sword, though he uses his last seconds to draw a grenade and takes the Elite with him. Both Anton and Malcolm witness this, unable to help him.

At this point, the Scarab has finally arrived, and it begins firing at the two Spartans before being distracted by a Warthog. Thinking of a way to destroy it, Malcolm spots a Banshee overhead and has Anton gets its attention, while he also gets the attention of the Scarab. As the two prepare to destroy him, Malcolm snipes off the Banshee's stabilizer, sending it crashing into the Scarab. Both explode, and Anton uses his [[armor lock]] to survive the blast.

The remaining Covenant retreat, securing the victory at the outpost. Malcolm broadcasts its victory, while Anton logs Isaac as MIA. Malcolm reports that the Kilo 3 and 4 generators are now under attack. Anton requests permission from Sierra Actual for White Team to defend Kilo 3, and the screen cuts to black, then to ''Halo: Faith''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s title.
