Halo: The Journey Home/Episode 2

{{TJH|Pit Stop| A loud shockwave shook the ship, seventeen of the eighteen Spartans were knocked to the ground, Master Chief was the one to remain standing. He didn't want to have to go through this with weary soldiers who had all just woke from a cryonic-sleep, but he had to, to get back home to UNSC controlled space. This wasn't his idea though, if it was up to him, he would have slept through the ride home, the thousand year ride home. He was following the instructions of a "superior alien" named G'rŭnǣn who had given him a chance to get home quicker. He wasn't sure how quick though, because he wasn't briefed on the entire mission. His job was just to survive every trial that G'rŭnǣn put him through, which would somehow lead him back to human civilization, somewhere on the opposite side of the galaxy. He refused to think of it like this, but G'rŭnǣn was a blessing in disguise. If it wasn't for him, he would still be in a cryonic-sleep, being piloted home by a rampant "Smart" A.L.. A recipe for disaster.
