The Spreading Infection

Postby Reapania » Mon Feb 13, 2012 6:27 pm

"Raahahhaahahgghghgh"!

This was the cry that marked Humanity's doom,for that cry was the cry of the master chief getting infected by the Flood.

the room was by typicle flood made of wax,where every so often you could see a piece of metal sticking out,around the body of the master chief were thousands of flood infection forms and not a few infected Brutes & Marines.A few rooms away the remnants of Chiefs mind could hear the screams of Cmdr. Keyes and Lord Hood, as they too were infected by the flood.

Arise,my new minions.the Grave mind said.

They did.

You shall be my generals,mi soldiers,my link through which to communicate my will to my soldiers.You have higher intelligence then most of the flood,can transform between what you look like now and what you used to look like before your enlightenment,can use telepathy,and lastly,You'r authority is equal to mine.{My lord-} {Be silent.} "You are dismissed"

"Yes,my lord" they all shouted at once.

Oh and master chief i have given you a present,its in the Helmet of your Armor.

His face broke out into a grin. "Thank you my lord."

{Now what was it you think was important enough to interrupt my conversation with the Ukanasani.} (means General,Prodigy,Successor in flood language.)

{My lord,i believe weve found a way to travel to other realities and dimensions.}

{...Have you? }

{Yes,my lord, we tested the theory and the techniques and something came through!!!}

{Do you have this thing locked in one of the cells!?!?!}

{Of course my lord,do you think me incompetent?}

{Of course not,you had to be smart to get to your position.}

{May i presume you're coming to meet the creature in person?}

{Yes i am,and yes you may.}

__________________________________________5 minutes later__________________________________________________________________________________________


*Graveminds PoV*

I opened the door and was immediately assailed by the creature.

It looked like a Sangheili without tentacles crossed with an Earth lizard.

My advice: Grammar. Grammar, grammar, grammar. It needs a lot of work in that department. Also, why and how is Master Chief getting infected? Where is he? What was he doing? Backstory is important.

Ahh, i was waiting for someone to question me about that,thank you Mesosura,Alright first of all this takes place in Halo 3 where there is plenty of time and places where master chief can get captured by the Flood.Second of all in my mind chief had a hole from a sentinel beam fired by one of the covenant, that is where 5 or ten flood infection forms got into his suit and knocked him out.he then got sent back to one of the only remaining supercarriers the fleet had, the infection forms started doing as their names say.

When the fleet got no response from the ship they sent a rescue/search party of marines to the ship,they too got infected and these forms carried ten infection forms that,well poped out,each time one died.Those marines then sent the fighter they had been on for a collision course with the Forward Unto Dawn. Now lets do the math on this part,a platoon of soldiers( that's 50 right???) that each carry around 10 infection forms onto a ship this size:Image (Sorry about the size) and i figure that though the ship is probably the command center for the entire battle,it cannot carry much personnel considering how may marines get off the ship during the battle.

So that's how Commander Keyes got captured,so what i think is that half the ship is captured in ,maybe 20 minutes.Then you have the other ships which have to be going "Oh **** oh ****" and from what i know of the ship,which ill admit isn't much, the medical wing is right there in the tube next to the key like end,and the sections above that are what i believe to be the bridge.the flood could have gotten to the bridge,subdued and captured commander Keys,then get the before mentioned ship to follow the other ones back to Earth,and infect them.

While that was happening the flood in the Forward unto Dawn had been silent in space,until the flood Infested high charity arrived.They both then began to Launch a Full scale ( For the flood) invasion of the Ark and the planet it was on.1 Hour later (Hey the flood are the Toughest craziest btards in the universe, and were talking about 1 flood controlled ship and a space station/city.) Half the planet is under flood control and almost all the remaining covenant ships are infested.

The Gravemind leaves the flood on the planet to continue their job while he takes the fleet of flood ships to earth to help the Super carrier finish infecting the other ships.When they get there they see the super carrier has infected half of the ships that were with the Forward Unto Dawn,and Admiral Hoods ships pounding the Super Carrier. (you might be asking why the infested ships were not firing on Hoods ships,well the marines on those ships were hold up in the control rooms for the guns and more were disabled by the marines before they're untimely deaths.) The gravemind then orders the flood infection forms to get on the carriers in the hangers and to ram into the Admirals ships and the space station he was on,which they do,though he orders a greater share of the Infectors to go at the Station.

The Admiral sees the carriers coming but is unable to stop them because the Antifighter weapons on the Station were destroyed.As the carriers crash the command center starts hearing calls of help from all over the station until they reach the command center and capture the Admiral.The Rest of the ships had by that point had been captured,all but one which already had the infection spreading.The gravemind then ordered the invasion of earth across all continents and on the Sangheili ships stationed on the Surface.Slowly but Surely all communications and lights on the surface go out one by one by one.The Master mind then orders all3 prisoners:the Masterchief,Commander Keys,and Admiral hood brought to the station.He then orders the invasion of all the covenants,both loyal and separatists planets.

And thats where the Story starts.

(this chapter starts strait off from where the last one ended.)

The avian-reptile crossover appears to be afraid i'm going to torture it.

"Calm down, will you,before i knock you off myself." The alien continued to babble in its strange language,quite possible its translator was broken or it could not understand me.

"Ah well." I then proceed to stand up, grab the alien by the throat and throw it across the room.it hit the wall leaving some blood dripping from its lower back and what i think might be a concussion.

That seemed too calm him down."Whezxere asms i?" (i purposely misspelled that so as to leave the impression that the translator hasn't done its job fully yet.) Hmm,it seemed to be asking where it was from what the translator was able to correct."You are on Planet Earth in what for you is possibly an alternate dimension,inhabited by aliens."

A look of puzzlement crossed it's face as it said "You do not seem like aliens to me,you look lie any normal Earthling to me?" Ah,this meant there was an Earth in his dimension,how interesting. "Well,you'll just have to trust me on that fact" I said.

"Well why don't i start the Introductions then." I said. "My name is the gravemind,and i am the current ruler of this part of the universe." A look of fear crossed his face at the idea that he had assaulted the rule of a race. "Oh god,i'm so sorry i didn't know,if i had i wouldn't have done that." All of this was said in a stumbling sort of way. "Ah,no worries,child anybody could have made the same mistake,i would have,so would you please tell me about you'r reality while the Guards get us some chairs?"

He did so,he told me about the ruling body,a council, of 4 races that govern the galaxy of their Universe except a sector called the Terminus systems,he told me about each of the races,the Turians,which is what he was,the Asari,a species of females that could mate with anything,the Salarians,a race of scientists,and the new member,the Humans.He also told me about the "Codex" a database that listed more in depth information on each of these things and more.

I then asked"are you ready to go?" a look of puzzlement crossed his face,"i thought i arrived at this dimension by accident?" I smiled at his idiotic idea. "No,you actually arrived here during the test of our dimension crosser,which apparently works." A look of excitement crossed his face, "does this mean i get to go back."

I smiled as i said "Of course you can,we just have to wait for the people i sent for your equipment get back."

5 Minutes later the scientists got to the room with his equipment,showing no signs of tamperment at all. "Thank you,for all this i mean,most people in our galaxy would have tortured me for the information i hold,considering how i'm a SPECTRE. I laughed. "Why it was no problem my boy."

He stopped for a moment,and turned to face me "umm,where is the portal going to drop me of at?"

"Why the new capitol world i set up, of course,now go ill Explain later to this ruling body of your's,the council i think it was?"A look of suspiciousness crossed his face for a moment before the smile was on again. "Yes,oh i'm such an idiot,i never introduced myself,my name is Desolas,Desolas Arterius. He stepped through the portal and was gone. "Is he infected?" i ask as if to thin air. "Yes,with the drink,and again when we handed him back his equipment."

"Ah smart,he and his bosses would never suspect the drink,and when his brother goes on his rampage against the galaxy,he will never suspect his brother to be the one to stab him in the back."

"Have you leaked to Cerberus the information on the Rachni on Noveria?"

"Yes master,we also told them about the "Thorian" on Feros". "Ah good,and when the Cerberus strike team opens the doors to what was once the Thorian's secret bunker they will discover the flood we have planted on it." "What about Matriarch Benezia and her Daughter?" "Infected." "Good, It's going according to the plan,and when this is done the Flood,and humanity will be members of the council."

Remember grammar, and also put larger pictures in spoilers. Spoiler command is "
insert what you want
" or spoiler [insert image] /spoiler, and put brackets around the spoiler commands.

SPECTRE Janus Shepard had been having the worst 3 weeks of her life.First the colony of Eden prime gets attacked,and her inducter into the ranks of the specters is killed by a fellow SPECTER,then when she finally gets to the artifact they were after in the first place,she gets knocked into cookoo land (decided i need to lighten up the darkness in the story a little bit),then follows to have an extremely disturbing vision,then she has to run halfway across the Citadel to find proof that Saren,the traitor specter who with the geth attacked the Eden Prime colony, is a traitor,and now just 2 days after that happening she has to go through a supposed portal that supposedly leads to an alternate dimension.

"Yeah right"

"What was that commander?" the normandy's pilot,Jeff,Joker,Moreau asked."Nothing joker,so when are we getting to the "portal" ?" He looks at something on the console in front of him "in about 3.2.1.

The ship dropped out of slipspace ( i think they use slipspace to get everywhere don't they?) in front of a giant purple portal.Beyond it could be seen a blue and grren planet much similar to Earth with ships floating around it."Well,it seems Saren's brother was telling the truth before he disappeared" probably went to join his brother.

"Unidentified ship,identify yourself and state your business near the flood empires doorway." "Joker,where is that transmission coming from"Captain Anderson,who the council saw fit to send on this mission as well, said."It seems to be coming from the planet sir." "Repeat state your name and business for being here."

Anderson looked at me and i told him "the council said it was your job to be diplomatic sir." He turned back to the console and the speaker "this is the SSV Normandy,we were sent here for matters of diplomacy,this is ambassador David Anderson speaking with SPECTER agent Janus Shepard on the bridge."

"Your story is confirmed ambassador Anderson,you may proceed through the doorway,we advise you and the men on your ship to brace yourself,the ride is bumpy." Anderson looked at Shepard and shrugged. "Joker,tell the crew to do so,the get us the capitol" she said."Shepard come with me to the com room."

When they got into the com room Shepard turned the communications to the council on,and they appeared. Councilor Valern,a Turian who hates humans,councilor Tevos,an Asari, and councilor Mesa,a Salarian.

"Shepard,are you at the "portal"?"That was Valern,always the diplomatic one."Yes councilor,me and Ambassador, Anderson are at the portal,we would have contacted you sooner but someone on the surface, possibly an outpost,said they would fire at us if we didn't identify ourselves. "They would dare fire upon a SPECTER and ambassador from the Citadel!?!?! we should send a fleet to wipe them out before this turns into something like the Rachni wars!!!

"Councilor we dont even know how advanced these species is,for all we know they might not even depend on eezo." "Impossible,every race in the galaxy depends on eezo,they're probably lying about not being humans too" Valern said. "I don't know about that councilor,the earth beyond the portal has a,feel to it that should not be there" Shepard said.

"Regardless,we still need to talk to this species,and analyze their technology so we can beat them if we have to"this was said by Tevos,which was surprising since she was the one who always tried to be peaceful. "Again,we might not be able to do that,we might not even have access to the minerals or technology needed to copy their machines" said Shepard."We will settle this at a later date,for now Shepard,Anderson continue with your mission" this was said by councilor Mesa.

"Yes sir"they cut the transmission and went back to the bridge "Joker is everyone ready?"said Shepard. "Yes commander,they're buckled up and ready to go." "good,then engage the drive." As she said this she and Anderson were strapping themselves into the chairs on either side of Jokers."Yes sir,commander"and the ship started moving for the Portal.

When the ship started to move inside the portal,it started shaking,as the commander on the ground said it would.When they shaken Normandy stepped out of the portal,the first thing it saw was a massive space station, with what look to be the barrels of guns on it. "SSV Normandy this is Space station Beginningyou are to dock here where you'll meet you'r guide to see our leader"The voice rang out across the bridge.

"Roger that beginning,docking now"this was said by Joker. when they docked,they were met by a man in an Admirals uniform along with a woman wearing a blue suit with crosses on it. "Hello,i take it your commander Shepard" this was addressed to Shepard,"and you must be Ambassador Anderson" this was addressed to Anderson. "Yes,and you are?..."Anderson said.

"Ah,forgive my manners,i'm Fleet Admiral Terrence hood,and this is my fellow guide Miranda keys,and admiral herself"Admiral Hood said"right,lets get to what your job here is,if you'll follow me to where our emperor is we can get to the diplomacy"admiral Hood said."Speaking of that,"said Shepard as they walked through the hallways"You'r commander on the planet back there said that this was the home of the flood empire,yet he referred to your leader as glorious leader,why is that?"Anderson asked. "Ah,now that is a very interesting question,you see an empire would be the closest thing we could be considered as at the moment,but he lets the citizens referre to him as whatever they want" lord Hood said,as they neared the offices of the emperor,and his assistants.

Finally they stopped outside the door to the Graveminds office. "Well,this is where we leave you to talk to him"Admiral hood said. "Wait,aren't you supposed to be in there too,you said you were diplomats" said Shepard.

"Yes,but we have too many things to do today,first we have to christen a new class of ship,then we have to watch the test firing of a new AS gun,then we have to Handle the matters of the war-" "Wait,what war"asked both Shepard and Ambassador Anderson. "That will be one of the things you will be talking about,ill'give you a hint though:there's a reason the batarian slave ring's have not attacked a human colony for awhile."said Hood.

"Wait a minute,you mean you've been warring with the batarian's ?!"said Shepard. "Yes" said both of them. "But why" asked Anderson."Because we want to be allies"said Keyes.

Hey guy's, I've got a question for you:do you think the galaxy portal/world door,is a bad idea or not,because i don't think the idea is going very well,and i've already got some plans on how to deal with it,which may or may not defy the laws of physics. (then again,name one fanfiction that hasn't :))

Just an update for the fanfiction and the vote for the world gate,which will end tomorrow at 12:00,and to say that i just got a deliciously evil idea concerning a certain race that came before the Fore runners and the only one to score something unique on their scale. (Just left you plenty of hints there.)

Hey guys,i'm sad to say that the story/fanfiction is going on Hiatus until further notice.

Yeah,i know its sudden,and its not for lack of ideas for the story,its just that i cannot fit words to thought,so im going to be putting this story to a halt for a while for something i tired to start in the Zombie Squad forums,but never got a reply to.

It will be an outbreak scenario where i will post news and events concerning the spread of a zombie virus,which will be modified to my liking to give you all a suitable challenge,including but not limited to:the ability to run,think,and superstrengh.
