@David Strickland Henry is an Elite. Lopez is just a human. That pretty much says a lot. No way some marine would just handle an Elite, especially without a loaded weapon. Elites are trained from the get-go, it's part of their culture. Don't be delusional.

For those who don’t know much about the flood, the reason why burgundy wasn’t killed immediately by cranker was because she had extensive knowledge of how to pilot space craft. Instead of her being turned into a combat form, they did what happened to captain Keyes in halo CE, used her for knowledge.

Sorry for bumping an old comment, but I just found this video. Personally, I never did like Lopez. She never came off as the “Tough as nails, but gets everyone home” type, she just seemed like the “Asshole CO” type. I found her as likable as the ONI spook. Henry though. Henry’s cool. I like to imagine he beat Lopez, destroyed her body so she couldn’t turn, and managed to get picked up by the covenant cruiser. Then he was shamed and imprisoned for becoming a POW until the Great Schism where he was rescued by Elites and became a great warrior. Or, and hear me out, this entire movie is just backstory for the Elite spec ops commander from halo 2.

But if all of them had orion then, the flood would target them, the orion isn't a cure, it just makes it harder to infect, the infection forms won't go after the people with orion, but if everyone had it, they would go after them, because it's the only thing they can infect.

[@punctuationman334]

Johnson was not immune. Boren syndrome, the illness speculated to be the cause of his immunity, was made up by ONI to cover up illnesses caused by the Orion project.

[@Mobius_118]

@The Rational Rifleman Due to Johnson's augmentations, the Flood had a slightly harder time taking over his nervous system, which gave him enough time to push off the infection form and kill it, then proceeding to evade the Flood until MC arrived.

[@DeathBringer769]

@@punctuationman334 No one mentioned "Boren syndrome" or how it was a cover-up until your comment. The original comment plainly says they already know and are talking about the Orion project itself. No one here is being fooled by the "Boren syndrome" crap that ONI made up, so I don't know why you left that comment, lol. Like other comments have said, due to Johnson's augmentations from the Orion Project (aka Spartan I project) it makes him harder for the Flood to infect him. ONI then made up the "Boren Syndrome" thing to avoid having to explain/expose the Orion/Spartan I project to people, but that really has nothing to do with what we're talking about here (which is the Orion Project and why it either makes him immune, or very hard to infect, from the Flood.)

People forget she was also wounded.

[@vault_dwelIer]

@B.O.S Ranger Hawke Weight class is everything. Henry is a species that can lift a 1000 pound Spartan with one hand (evidenced by Emile's death). Elites have also gone hand to hand with Spartans and survived large caliber bullets. This is a toddler fighting a body builder. Plot armor is one thing but neither of them have it in this scenario. Lopez has such a low chance realistically that it's not even worth considering.

[@vault_dwelIer]

@B.O.S Ranger Hawke Sorry but no. There is a reason that weight classes exist in all fighting sports, as well as gender segregation. Size and strength trumps in the end. Henry weighs at bare minimum twice as much as Lopez. Henry is powerful enough to kill a Spartan in power armor in hand to hand combat. Henry belongs to a species that can lift half a ton with one arm. One good hit from Henry and the already wounded Lopez is dead, if she hits him he will barely feel it. Look up what happens when a chimpanzee attacks a human....long story short you are screwed. This is even worse, this is basically a human in hand to hand combat with a gorilla. This would not be a dramatic fight scene with scripting to benefit Lopez. Ford killed the arbiter because the arbiter monologued for plot reasons. This won't happen here. Henry is in fact faster and more agile, especially because Lopez is wounded. Unless some BS comic comes out and saves Lopez Ex Machina style this is how it goes: Henry hits her once and she's done, she is not fast enough to hit him and if she does he doesn't feel it. Realistically they both die. Henry wins and either can't fit in the pod or doesn't know how it works. If he does escape he's either executed by the UNSC for being Covenant, or executed by the Covenant for being a heretic. There is no happy end here.

[@vault_dwelIer]

@ODST 4 Life Absolutely true, especially in this case. I repeat, there is a reason that weight classes exist in fighting sports: with similar skill sets size offers a massive advantage. This isn't a street fight, this is a human versus something monumentally stronger and also faster. Look up what happens when a person is attacked by a chimpanzee, now escalate it even further. Henry is an alien that can lift a half ton Spartan with one hand (as evidenced when Emile is killed in Halo: Reach), can flip large vehicles by hand, hold his own in hand to hand combat with power armored super soldiers, jump higher than the average person stands, and run faster than the average person. If plot armor or Ex Maxina type moments are thrown aside there is almost a 100% chance that Henry wins this fight. He is so physically superior in every way that it is down right laughable. This is comparable to a human fighting a gorilla in hand to hand combat.

@Ricardo Smarts I mean that Necromorphs can literally never leave the site of the outbreak. If Isaac had never come along or died the Necromorphs outbreak would've ended when ishimura crashes into Aegis 7 or when her gravity tethers completely destabilise and turn into mini black holes talking out it and half the star system in the process. If the flood had been in the Necromorphs place they would've turned aegis 7 into a flood hive and then taken over the ishimura. As a matter of fact had it been the flood they would've either taken the ishimura and left the system to spread or fired off a signal to lure more prey in. It would've been game over for the entire dead space universe

[@comandercarnis]

@Ricardo Smarts the Necromorphs also have a crippling weakness against energy weapons and disintegrators. The flood has it as well but they supplement it by using their foods technology against them. Also the Necromorphs will get fucked up if they have to deal with heavy caliber ballistics or explosives. Autocannons and minds would their worst nightmare.

The Mona Lisa looks a lot like the Ishimura from Dead Space. And now that I think about it, the stories are pretty similar too. A ship undertaking a clandestine operation mysteriously goes dark. A small team is dispatched to investigate the blackout, and are methodically separated and killed off. The survivors are lost in the deteriorating ship, trying to complete their objective and escape. The cause is revealed to be the former inhabitants of the ship, who have been transformed into zombie-like creatures (Seriously, the Flood and Necromorphs are very similar. Both are comprised of host bodies that have been infected and turned into horrifying, disfigured monsters whose only goal is to kill and create more of them, and can only be killed by completely destroying its body). A 'doctor' onboard the ship is revealed to be at least partially responsible for the outbreak and turns against the rescuers. They complete their objective, and the "hive mind" of the infestation is destroyed. But one of the members of the team is revealed to be a government operative, kills one of the survivors, betrays the protagonist, and is killed. Out of the entire group, only one member escaped.

Right? doesn't make sense. that goes against the fact that the floods goal is to infect everything, and the flood use the host knowledge. so itd be completely capable of infecting the redhorse, and i think the covenant ship they're picking up is ascendant justice a flagship that had a majority of its crew made up of engineers and a less then 100 elites from the book halo first strike that master chief and a few marines captured. so im sure the drop pod, and both ships would've been fine.

[@S0RGEx]

Keep in mind that the infection only reached the proto-gravemind stage. So they still didn't really have any cognitive, centralized thought.

[@bachri7721]

The Flood doesn't entirely work like that. Sure, the Flood form that the pilot would turn into after infection would retain knowledge of how to fly the Pelican, but that knowledge wouldn't be shared with the other individual forms unless they're unified under a Gravemind. In addition, even if she used that knowledge, there wouldn't be any coordination in getting other forms to board the Pelican so that she could take them anywhere. So instead of infecting her, they brought her to the Proto-Gravemind that they were building in the engine room to add her knowledge to it, so that they could all use it once it was finished.

In the book it is explained that all pilots found in the ship were shoved into the mass on the slip-space drive. So instead of a pelican, they were going for a much larger ship that could travel further.

[@sleipnirodin2881]

At that staged, this was just a *PROTO-Gravemind* But hey! close enought and yes it would had done the job. A *Gravemind* is the size of a City in it's fullest, this is why actualy, *Gravemind* dies by being "overbloated" with intel' [ Yes intel'---But the GPU are thousand upon thousands of corpses.] When this occured, the *Gravemind* released very specifics spore each a fraction of that *Gravemind* to find a [Literaly.] "bigger" place from where to sprout and began a new life spawn, growing even bigger, more intelligent... Deadly. That's the basics.

Obviously, Henry would have beat Lopez so bad that you couldn't even recognize her

[@Yamazakura00]

poor henry, he was loyal till the end, kinds of show how your enemies are not always blood thirsty savages like you would think.

[@backup_rookie3913]

Despite how harsh it sounds, that bloody, dying man had the *most merciful death* in this short story, dead serious here.

[@evankelln9966]

This is probably the most gruesome/gory halo movie I've ever seen...ITS FUCKING AWESOME!!!

[@AwesomeStormer]

Just a normal Tuesday for Master Chief

[@christopherbujold6819]

If John ever discovers that ONI experimented with the Flood on humans, holy fuck bruh.. On another point, Flood needs to make a come back in a Halo game, they're the reason why the Halos were ever built in the first place. Like if you want to see Master Chief vs the Flood again, and also seeing Prometheans vs Flood would be pretty epic too

[@imperialknight3286]

It would be pretty canon since the prometheans were originally created to fight off the flood that's why most of their weapons disintegrate organic material so it stops the flood from gaining biomass

[@mysticdragonwolf89]

Benti: Henry can have my shore leave Henry: No my love! Lopez: It’s nothing personal, Henry, but I got dibs Henry: I’ve been tortured, fought the flood with a bat, was given trust by my Covenant’s sworn enemy- a human- trust I was going to repay with my life; only to have that trust out into a death wish so I may live, and you want to trample on that and my honor?! *thuds bat* I’ve fought fellow elites, fought demons, and something more terrible than death- you think you will be much of a challenge? *Proceeds to wacko-mole Lopez to a pulp until her skull pops out*

This is hilarious 1:01:53 BAMP

Bonk

@@HaloCEJohnnoscope I laughed to he just wacks the infection form in the face

[@kirkfogg8366]

imagine the horror a lone soldier would of felt. no matter how brave. the chief is truly a bad ass legend going through so many flood carriers

[@TheWhoamaters]

I like how they showed that the only ways to kill the flood is to either shoot the exposed infection form or rip the corpse apart. after the numerous lore issues with fallout 4, I'm glad to see adherence to the lore in one of my favorite franchises

[@CLOM0TRON]

fallout 4?

[@DeClaw-]

Ainsley Hariott fallout 4 broke cannon on many occasions. Made a lot of fans mad and this guy is glad Microsoft is keeping Halo consistent

[@CLOM0TRON]

Declaw ah OK thanks

[@joedul7623]

You should make part 2, Henry's day out with the UNSC

[@jerrell1169]

This is not the people who made it

[@joevenables3393]

Do you like my new coat? -wears that marine's skin-

[@fayekatanzimurmee1933]

part 2 should be like "Henry join UNSC"

[@infamouskitcat3937]

Henry and the Henderson's

[@brianjackman3006]

Come on people start writing the fanfiction of a part 2. We can make this great.

[@BLOrtega]

If Henry lived throughout all of this, I assume he'll take control or participate in Flood Containment teams for the Covenant to honor the people in Mona Lisa and to make sure that no Elite has to live through what he did

[@Fourtytwo4242]

This is Henry we are talking about, after a human saved his life he 100% part of the swords of sanghelios and is most likely the main ambassador for them. Not counting he work great with spartan flood combat unites.
