Plot
During the Battle for Installation 07, John-117 is defeated by the Banished leader Atriox aboard the UNSC Infinity, and thrown into space. Six months later, he awakens aboard Pelican Echo 216 and is informed of the UNSC's catastrophic defeat by the pilot Fernando Esparza. When the Banished warship Ghost of Gbraakon captures Echo 216 in its stasis beam, the Master Chief must board the enemy vessel in order to shut off the beam. When Banished troops attempt to break into the Pelican, John overloads the ship's engines, destroying it. During his escape, he's contacted by the new leader of the Banished, War Chief Escharum, who vows to hunt the Chief down.[1]

Intro
{Cutscene}
Open to a shot of a fully intact Zeta Halo.
- Infinity bridge officer: (over the radio) "We are under attack! I repeat we are under attack!"
Scene shifts rightward to reveal the UNSC Infinity under attack by Banished forces. A Banished dreadnought smashes into Infinity from the side as Banished Phantoms and UNSC Pelicans swarm everywhere, shooting at each other. Zoom in on one of Infinity's hangar bays. A Pelican tries to leave, only to be hit by a plasma blast and explode.
- Whispers: (voiceover) "Would you humor me?"
Inside a chaotic, smoldering hangar bay, UNSC marines are in full retreat. A pursuing Jiralhanae soldier is gunned down from behind. His body falls forward, revealing his killer: John-117, the only human not fleeing. A Kig-Yar Freebooter tries to rush by him, but the Master Chief slams it in the face with his MA40 assault rifle, knocking it to the floor. He finishes off the fallen Kig-Yar with a quick burst from his weapon before turning his attention to the other Banished.
Another Pelican takes off as the Master Chief fires his assault rifle at the Banished all around him. Plasma pistol bolts strike the Master Chief, causing his energy shields to flare. The Chief guns down the Kig-Yar shooting at him, then kills another Brute. Out of ammunition, he discards the empty assault rifle, then drops to one knee, and uses his Grappleshot to retrieve an MK50 Sidekick. He kills another Kig-Yar, followed by a pair of Unggoy.
Suddenly, there's a roar from behind. John-117 turns around just in time to see Atriox bringing his hammer down upon him. John blocks the blow with his left shoulder. He tries to bring his sidearm up, but Atriox grabs his hand, forcing the gun away. Then, with another roar, Atriox slams his hammer into the Master Chief's side, sending the SPARTAN-II flying. The Chief crashes into a loading crane and falls to the floor, his weakened shields flickering.
Stunned by the blow, the Chief groans in pain and clutches his chest as Atriox approaches him.
- Whispers: (voiceover) "If you knew how you were going to die..."
Gripping his hammer with both hands, Atriox raises his weapon above his head, ready to deliver the killing blow. John-117 jumps to his feet and punches Atriox in the stomach three times, before delivering an uppercut to the Brute's jaw. Unfazed, Atriox viciously punches John-117 in the side of his helmet, knocking him back to the floor. Before the Chief can get back up, Atriox spins him around by the shoulder, then hoists the Chief up by the neck with one hand. With the other hand, Atriox brings his hammer crashing down on John-117's head, smashing him to the floor once more. Red energy from the hammer engulfs the Chief and his shields fail. An empty data chip flies off of him and bounces across the floor several times before coming to a rest.
- Whispers: (voiceover) "How would you live your life differently?"
Scene zooms in on the chip as the Master Chief, groaning in pain, crawls toward the chip, desperate to retrieve it. Just as he grabs the chip, Atriox seizes him by the right leg and effortlessly swings him around, smacking the Chief into the side of a Warthog. The Banished leader then drags the Chief to the edge of the hangar bay, before throwing him into a heap on the ledge.
Atriox kneels down, grabs the Chief by the neck and thrusts him up, so that they're staring face to face. Scene circles around the pair before closing in on Atriox's face.
- Atriox: "My name is Atriox. And I am the last face you will ever see."
Scene shifts to the Master Chief's POV as Atriox hurls him off the ship. As the Chief falls, he sees a triumphant Atriox staring down at him from the ledge. Explosions erupt all over the hangar. The Chief fires his grappleshot but it falls short. He passes through the hangar's shielding and into the void.
Fade to black.
Warship Gbraakon
Scene opens up on "Warning" message flashing in front of a sleeping Pelican pilot. Suddenly the something jolts the dropship violently, causing the pilot to wake up with a gasp. An alarm blares.
- Ship AI: "WARNING. WARNING. WARNING."
The pilot looks around in a panic. The Pelican continues to shake violently.
- Ship AI: "PRESSURE BUILDING IN LINES FOUR, SEVENTEEN, and THIRTY-THREE."
The pilot hastily unfastens himself from his seat. He moves the seat back allowing him to get up.
- Ship AI: "PRESSURE BUILDING IN LINES FOUR, SEVENTEEN, and THIRTY-THREE."
The pilot pulls out two security cards, one of which he inserts into a computer in front of him. He strains to insert the second card into another computer off screen.
- Ship AI: "PRESSURE BUILDING IN LINES FOUR, SEVENT-"
The alarm stops.
- Ship AI: "PROTOCOL ACCEPTED."
Suddenly a piece of debris flies by the window. The Pelican shakes again. The alarm resumes.
- Ship AI: "BREACH DETECTED."
The pilot rushes to the cockpit doors. He grunts as he tries to force them open.
- Ship AI: (on continuous loop) "BREACH DETECTED."
The pilot manages to pry the doors open and rushes out. Red warning lights are flashing inside the Pelican's bay, which is in a state of total disrepair. The pilot grabs a crate and stacks it on top of a pair of troop seats. He climbs onto the crate and reaches for an emergency valve. The pilot grunts profusely as he struggles to turn the valve. Desperate, he grabs the valve with both hands. Finally, he turns it, just as he loses his footing and tumbles to the floor with a yell.
The red warning lights turn off and the alarm stops.
- Ship AI: "BREACH CONTAINED."
