The John-117 Chronicles.
By: Justin Grove (HCC-Killroy)

It was 28 years after the Great War. Earth has been most prosperous, Mombasa, the worst destruction seen by one Covenant Scarab, has been mostly rebuilt. Civilians are finally reliving their normal lives without worry. The crime rate on earth has dropped to .06% due to the Spartan Recon Defense Force (SRDF). A police force made up of the ONI's Spartan VII's which had been highly successful compared to the original Spartan III design. It has been only 6 years since a lost deep space cargo frigate fell upon the destructed ship. The only sign of life aboard the ship had been an ancient Navy Class AI that had called itself Cortana. The AI was weak and the signal would not have gotten across if it hadn't been for the fact that the lost cargo ship was equipped with an ANMARI communications system. The system was old compared to the times and had been created by Doctor Joseph Kenneth Anmari. It sent sound and radio trans frequency waves across space (and time) faster than the speed of light. The AI's power was at a critical level because it had converted all the ships power to the cryo bay. There seemed to be another life sign in one of the cargo pods. The pilot of the cargo ship, Sean Wayne, was one of the last few pilots in the galaxy. Aside from exploration ships, all other ships including cargo and civilian transport ships were unmanned. Sean had entered the ship to look for a communications system and checked the cryotube while he was there. What he saw made him cry. The armor was in everyones dreams and it was unmistakable, the stories they all were told about how the original Spartans had won the Great War single handedly until there had been only one left. The Master Cheif, Spartan 117, John.
Sean was ecstatic and even more so when an exploration frigate happened to drop out of slipspace 200 kilometers in front of him. After hailing the ship and making it back to Earth, he was honored and awarded for finding the one person that had won the war. John was not thawed, ONI gave specific instructions to keep him frozen. They said to thaw him ONLY IN A NATIONAL CRISIS. They never would suspect that their next decision would put the entire earth and themselves at risk.
