Surviving Spartans?
(Scenes from Hell) As eyeryone knows, sometimes plots have to be reworked for them to be sucessful on the big screen, and Halo is no exception. Somehow, a major plotline in the movie will revive around a handfull of surviving spartans who were captured by the covenant at Reach for some cliche purpose or another. One scene will develop in a large covenant ship that has been overrun by the flood. One of the remaining spartans is onboard in a cryo-tube. A lone flood combat form infiltrates the cryo chamber. It considers the room for a moment, as if wondering what to do, its sensory stalks flicking in the air. It senses the spartan's tube and runs directly twoard it. Once again it stands momentarily at eye level with the dormant spartan inside as if considering. It suddenly pulls back its grossly mutated arm, and gathering all of its strength, strikes a devestating blow to the tube. Immediately, smoke rushes out of the chamer, clouding the screen, fully obscuring the tube, and leaving only the flood's hazy outline visible. The flood lets out an anguished moaning sound, spreading its arms as if ready to attack. All of a sudden, a powerful hand shoots out of the haze, seizing the flood's sensory stalks andcrushing them. The flood seems disoriented. The hand, still holding the stalks, is joined by another which plunges straight into the chest cavity forcibly yanking out the still squirming flood infection form as the lifeless body falls to the floor. The hand clutching the infection form calmly applies a small amount of pressure, causing the flood to pop like a ballon. The next angle is level with the barley recognizeable, anguished face of the lifeless marine. A foot crashes down on its chest. A slow pan up and away reveals a spartan!
