Introduction
''Oh yes, I remember Ceres. It was a very fertile planet, filled with giant trees and large canyons spanned by awe-inspiring bridges. It seemed peaceful enough, save the fighting between us boys, the Covenant and the natives. But the real problems lay below, down on the planet's surface. There, it was always nighttime and the creatures that lurked in those depths sought to feast on the flesh of whatever wandered close enough. And it was there of course that we had to fight most of the battles...''

Far from the regular lines of battle lay a planet, forgotten by time. Filled with rampant growth of the flora, vast canyons and large expanses of nothing. Nowhere is safe on this planet, and its' situation will not improve. There is little sentient life, save a few Human and Covenant outposts and the tree-top towns of the native creatures. Soon this will change though. Creatures will arise from the depths. Some of which have never been seen before....

''The Last Battle of Ceres? Oh I don't even like to think about that. It was one of the worst battles I ever went through. No one knew what happened until it hit us. We thought nothing could stop them....''

The planet's relative peace will turn to chaos. A Forerunner installation guards two secrets never meant to be found. The giant flora and huge mountains was meant to cover up these secrets. But soon, they will be unleashed. And unless the installation is allowed to do its' duty, nothing will stop them....

Background Information
Shortly after the Battle of the Satellite, the UNSC Endeavor was sent to the coordinates of signal that was sent from the station. They came out of slipspace in orbit of the extraordinarily fertile planet of Ceres. They set up base and planned to claim the planet for the UNSC. Covenant soon arrived though and tried to claim it for themselves, and the native species, the Bujkowe, fought both forces with extreme ferocity. Nearly a year after the fighting had begun though, something happened. All that the humans managed to get out was an extremely garbled message. It was as follows:

''Mayday, Mayday. This is Ceres base. We need immediate assistance from any UNSC or allied Covenant forces. I repeat we need immediate assistance fromany UNSC or allied Covenant forces. The base is under attack by these strange...things! They are not Covenant, Bujkowe or wildlife, they're like nothing I've ever seen. We will attempt to hold off the creatures as long as we can. Hurry before... aaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!''

The horde of Hydra controlled robots flew back to Blackheart, Cognitive Tactics in their custody. They handed him over to Blackheart, who absorbed him into his being and gained all of his stored information and, what he had really been after from the Monitor, access to the teleportation grid.

Ameigh Broley and her troops landed on the planet and moved out to destroy the Flood and Hydra, as well as save their Human allies. But as she moved to lead her troops, she heard a new noise from the sky. She looked up, she saw an enormous Forerunner city enter the system and begin to fire on everything in sight. "Move! Move! Move! We have to rescue our allies and leave the system as soon as possible! Move! Move! MOVE!!"

Lewis awoke out of his coma. In front of him was this creature... a very large plant he thought it was. He looked to his left. Holstrom was out still. Then, the creature spoke to him. It said: "I am death, I am the darkness. I have stayed here for millinea, carrying out a sentence that was wrongfully put on me. Do you think activating this ring will kill me!? It is just a mere passage of time." Then Lewis took out the only thing that had some affect on the flood. An incendiary greande. He lit it up and he threw it into the creatures mouth. Him and Holstrom fell until a sentinel caught them. AJ 14:00, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

Dean got up to his feet. The situation looked bad. More of the pods dropped all over the forest. That meant the First and Second Teams wouldn't have a chance. He picked up a Spartan Laser and strapped it to his back. Then he picked up two SMGs and a Shotgun. He decided to use the Shotgun first, so he hooked the SMGs on his belt. Then he took off into the forest.

Almost immediately a swarm of Combat Forms attacked. He saw they were the Human type of Combat Forms, and figured out that they were from First and Second Team. He repeatedly fired his Shotgun. Many flood fell, but there just came more to take the fallen's place. Just when he thought it was hopeless, three Scorpion Tanks came out of the forest and opened fire on the flood. It was Marines inside. Quickly, Dean jumped onto one. Then Pelicans came and hailed the enemy from the sky, soon clearing them out.

"Hello, Master Gunnery Sergeant, thought you needed some help." It was Captain Crow.

"Thank you sir, but we've still got many problems. That city, it came from nowhere, and now its unleashing a devastating force."

"Yes I know, Sergeant. I'm planning to strike the thing with the ships I have, and I hope that other ships will help. But I've got a problem that I want you to deal with first. The city has several cannon towers that are holding away the ships. I want you to disable some of them, so we can blow that thing up!"

"I'll start immediately, Captain!"

Matt-256 17:00 (Scandinavian Time), 18 October 2007 (UTC)

"This is Fleet Admiral Jim Wilson. All forces, redirect fire onto the large Forerunner city. Engage it with full firepower." All the UNSC and Covenant ships turned towards the Forerunner city. The Precursors had already done this, realizing the threat it presented, but Forge's fleet was still firing on the other forces even with the Forerunner city attacking them, taking those ships down as well. "Dragon Squadron, I want you and any other volunteer fighter squadrons to try and get in close, find whatever it is that's holding that thing in the air, and take it down. Move!"

Ameigh and her forces moved quickly over the barren landscape. The impact of the NOVA had turned nearly a third of the planet into a desert, making movement easy but hiding impossible. They attempted to go as quickly as possible and if the Flood or Hydra were foolish enough to attack, they killed them quickly. Eventually, they came over a rise and saw the other forces. They hurried over and joined them. "Ameigh!", yelled Jemsal, rushing over to greet his mentor, "What took you so long?" "Why didn't you send the message sooner?", replied Ameigh. "Now wait, I sent it before we even got here. This time, the blame is squarely on you.", said Jemsal very seriously. But then both broke into laughter from the joke. "Now, for some introductions. Team Alpha, this is our mentor, Ameigh Broley. Ameigh, these are the members of Team Alpha. They may introduce themselves personally if they choose." "I'm sorry to say this, but we don't really have time for this", said James, "We need to get off the planet ASAP" "Of course", said Ameigh "What about you're ships?" "Most were shot down, and the few that are left are too far away from here. Your ships are closer." "Then let's go"

"This is Caleb of Team Beta", said Caleb, "You think you boys can handle things up here? We need to take out that Hydra commander form, wherever it's lurking down there" "Sure thing", said Luke, "We'll take care of things up here, you give James and all a hand down there" "OK and good luck."

The UNSC Pillar of Winter exited slipspace and quickly entered orbit. Captain Jacobs ordered the Com officer to open a channel to all surviving UNSC and Covenant ships in the area. "This is the UNSC Pillar of Winter to all allied ships, we have arrived and shall deploy our forces on the surface."

"Captain Jacobs, this is Fleet Admiral Jim Wilson. Deploy your troops and then turn your attention to that giant city-thing. Those are your orders" "Yes sir", replied Captain Jacobs.

"Foolish Humans", said Blackheart, "They left behind they're ship, and now it shall be mine" With that, Blackheart teleported himself into the UNSC Thermopylae and took as many Hydra as possible with him. He planned to close in on the UNSC ships, land in one and take it for his own.

As the com snapped off, the bridge officers carefully calculated an entry vector towards any surviving UNSC and Covenant ground forces in the area. As Captain Jacobs studied the displays front of him, he ordered the pilots to bring the Winter in low enough to deploy Shortswords, Sparrowhawks, and Hornets to cover the ground forces.

Down in the hanger the pilots were busing preparing their Longswords and fighters for immediate deployment.

After the Winter's fighters were clear, Captain Jacobs ordered the ship be brought back into orbit and the shields to be engaged. Then he ordered the Pulse Laser turrets to be warmed up for immediate action.

The Pelicans closed in on the target. Dean, together with 12 other Marines, had to disable as many cannon towers as possible, in order to help in the coming assault from the starships.

The Pelicans landed near the edge of the city, for now free from flood. Two Moongooses, two Warthogs and one Scorpion Tank were dropped off together with the Marines. Dean took the driving seat in the Scorpion, while another Marine manned the Machine Gun. The other Marines took the other vehicles. Then they drived forward.

Some hundred meters into the city, the Flood attacked. But they were dealt with quickly thanks to the Scorpion Tank. After another three hundred meters, they arrived at the first cannon tower. Dean and two other Marines went in through the door. According to the scannings of the area, all they had to do to disable these things was to fire with a Spartan Laser right into the Energy Beam being generated in the middle of the tower.

They met some flood hostiles, but very few, and it didn't take long until they were in the center. Dean switched to the Spartan Laser he'd been carrying since the drop. He pointed on the energy beam, and charged his laser. After a few seconds it fired, and hit the beam. The Beam blurred for some seconds, and then faded away. First tower disabled.

Dean and the Marines went out to the vehicles, took their seats, and headed away for the next one. Suddenly Dean saw that another one of the towers were shut down. Was someone else given this task as well? Rthao 'Haerum returned to his Scarab. The Cannon tower was disabled. Now he had to go for another one. He went to the command section of the Scarab. He ordered it forward. There was still much to do.

As the humans were nearing the second tower and noticed its destruction, a large vine from Ancientmind came from the ceiling and smashed into the floor removing all space between them, the tower, and the exit. Flood began pouring out of crevices and the massive hole. Thousands of them. And they all stared for a moment, then began attacking. --Kebath &#39;Holoree 18:39, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

The humans stared at the hordes of Flood, wondering how they'd get out of this one. But just then, Dragon Squadron flew overhead. "Watch out boys!", yelled Brittany as she flew in. All of Dragon Squadron opened fire with chainguns, missiles, bombs, and whatever else they had. Then marines also opened fire on the Flood and they were all dead in 3 of Dragon Squadron's runs. "Thanks", said the leader of the marines. "No problem", said Cindle as they flew off to bomb more of the structure.

Lewis and Holstrom awoke. A 12 feet tall creature with grey skin stood in front of them. Then, the creature spoke. It said: "Reclaimers, I am the Librarian of Ceres. I am the last of the forerunner." Lewis and Holstrom looked at each other in amazement. AJ 20:12, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Dean smiled while he drove the Scorpion. He was glad to have that Squadron in the air. He would've been dead if it weren't for them, and Dean was the one who remembered to pay back to those who helped him. He headed for the next tower.

After a while of small engagements with flood groups, he arrived at the third tower. This time the Flood seemed to be prepared, as it was around a hundred of the things around the tower. Dean hit the breaks. He pointed the cannon on the horde, and said: "Get outta' my way!"
