What if The Flood from Halo Arrived in Star Wars

What if The Flood from Halo Arrived in Star Wars? Let’s explore the depths of this scenario in the video.
The Resolute drifts through the debris field as it investigates the twisted remains of a foreign vessel. It had appeared on the edge of Republic space near a frontier world. Although they detect no signs of activity, Anakin leads a boarding party to investigate what happened.
Anakin: Coms. Alright Rex, tell me what you see from the Resolute.
Rex: Still no signs of activity, sir. By the looks of it, the ship was bisected by something. The cuts are too neat to have been a battle. We’ve managed to decipher the language, it says, Forward Onto Dawn. Wait, scanners are picking up a faint energy reading from a cryo chamber deep inside. Could be some kind of stasis pod.
Anakin leads his troops down the darkened halls to the ship's cryo chambers, careful to avoid the twisted metal. They find only one inhabited cryotube. Through the glass, they see a massive humanoid in imposing green armor.
Anakin orders the troopers to move the cryopod to the Resolute so they can inspect it properly. As they move to begin cutting the tubes, a blue woman appears from the nearby holo tank.
Cortana: Maybe I can help?
Anakin: Woah, hello there. Who are you?
The hologram flickers faintly as she looks up at Anakin and his men. Her image distorts several times as she tries to recall something.
Cortana: I-I’m Cortana. You have to help us. We’ve been trapped here for almost four years.
Anakin: Don’t worry, Cortana. We’ll get you and your friend onto our ship,
Cortana’s form suddenly glows a bright red and she stumbles to the ground, clutching her head as if in pain. Anakin gasps as she starts to shout.
Cortana: Get us out of here now! There’s something else on this ship! It was waiting for us!
Anakin: Cortana, what's wrong?
Cortana’s image flickers more violently.
Cortana: No time… I’m failing… rampant. There’s… something else here. You must leave now! Another life form…detected.
Anakin’s com-link roars to life as a trooper from another squad contact him.
Clone: General! Something attacked us, it's a pod-like thing it latched onto one of the troopers, and ah!
Blaster fire rings out and the channel goes dead.
She releases the tubes holding Master Chief’s cryo-chamber in place. Anakin orders the clones to take it back to their ship as he rushes off to lower levels where the rest of his men are investigating. Although Cortanan insists on getting out of there, Anakin ignores her as an ear-splitting shriek echoes across the facility.
In the lower levels, a figure limps out from the shadows. At first, Anakin thinks it is one of his men, but as it steps into the light, he sees the clone is now mutated and deformed. One hand is enlarged and twisted into a pincer while his head has been pushed back against his back and in its place, a pod has burrowed itself into his chest cavity.
The trooper shrieks and rushes at Anakin, its pincer slashing at him. He reels back from the attack and slashes his lightsaber across the clone's arm, slicing it off at the shoulder. But the floodform moves with unnatural speed and grabs Anakin by the throat with his remaining hand.
Anakin reverses his grip and drives his lightsaber into the floodform's chest, driving it to the ground as the infector bursts. The Jedi falls to the ground but doesn’t have a chance to rest for long as more combat forms appear.
Cortana’s voice sounds from the intercom.
Cortana: Run!
The Jedi turns at his heels and rushes back the way he came as the infected clones give chase. He stops only to pull Cortana’s data chip from the holo tank before making his way back onto their shuttle. He’s the last one onboard as the ship takes off.
Anakin orders the Resolute to fire upon the Forward Unto Dawn. The turbo lasers rip through the already-ruined ship hull, sending bursts of flames blossoming as the ship breaks apart. But from the explosion, they glimpse something streaking through. A tiny escape pod that flies straight to the planet below.
Anakin places Cortana on the ship's console.
Anakin: Cortana, what was that?
Cortana: The Flood.
Anakin strides onto the bridge of The Resolute, taking both Cortana and the cryotube with them as they begin working on unfreezing Master Chief. Ahsoka is waiting for her master and behind her is a hologram of the Jedi Council and the chancellor.
Anakin: Cortana, tell them what you told me. What are we dealing with?
Cortana: The Flood. A parasite that infects and consumes all organic life it comes into contact with. If that pod reaches the planet’s surface, it will only be a matter of time before the entire planet is overrun.”
Palpatine: Then we must deploy a response force immediately to contain this threat.
Cortana: This isn’t just another enemy. The Flood spreads like a virus.

Amazing video. Halo is my favorite video game series, so it's great to see it in a crossover with Star Wars. I was surprised Chief and Cortana were present as well, but it's nice seeing them in the mix to help stop the Flood. Lucky for the galaxy that it was only in the Outer Rim. If the Flood got to Coruscant, and then the fight would have already been lost. Another surprise was the lack of Death Star in the story, but given the lack of time needed to complete the project, it wouldn't have been a good solution. So the Blue Shadow Virus works too.

[@eclipseslayer98]

@@ashtoningram45 The Flood beat 40k because none of the civilizations are strong enough to counter them, and all of their gods would be affected by the death of their worshippers. The ONLY faction that has a chance against The Flood are the C'tan. They don't rely on The Warp, and so can't be influenced with The Flood's control over The Warp that they'd gain from eating psychers, and they don't use code like machines, so they'd be impossible to "hack". Even then, The Flood can begin to corrupt space itself when large enough, and could concievably create a Flood Warp God if they wanted to. Plus, if the Flood captured a C'tan, they might be able to use the logic plague on them. The Logic Plague is exactly how it sounds, it's a plague that uses logic to influence logical beings. This includes biological organisms, as seen when the Ur-Didact was corrupted by the Primodial. So really, not even the C'tan are safe from The Flood. THAT being said, the MAIN issue with Star Wars, is that we don't know the upper limits of The Force. The Force operates very subtely, and controls the entire galaxy, if not universe. Thus, even though NONE of the civilizations in SW could EVER actually win against The Flood, the fact that The Force is there changes things. It's entirely possible that The Force makes it so that some stray blaster fire just so happens to damage the escape pod, and then The Flood burn up in the atmosphere before reaching the surface, or another unlikely scenario. We also don't know how the Dark Side would interact with The Flood either. So realistically, without The Force, The Flood HARD stomps. With The Force, an initial Flood infection would likely never win. However, it becomes murkier when if you introduce a LARGE Flood presence all at once, or if The Force somehow doesn't recognize the danger posed by The Flood. So Really, it's not Star Wars vs The Flood, but The Force vs The Flood, and we don't fully know the depths of the Force's power.

[@AssassinIsAfk]

The flood would thrive in this scenario 1) once the flood infect 1 clone trooper it will know how to use its blasters and the clones stragies 2) as soon as they start taking over the CIS systems the flood would be able to gain tanks on top of all the republic tanks and cruisers that they already have infected and those fancy weapons that eliminate everything 3) the flood dont need cortana, the logic plague will be established as soon as they have the gravemind, and it will most likely kill cortana and take over all the droids anyways. (There's a reason why the forerunners never used the sentinals in the trillions in the forerunner flood war) 4) thanks to the hyperdrive the flood would be able to get across the galaxy easily plus modify it to work with split space which is bad news for both the CIS and Republic 5) once the flood get grievous suddenly the flood know how to counter jedi and use lightsabers and might be able to get the knowhow on how to build lightsabers, as well as make a more overpowered version of grevious. 6) the flood at this stage will just dominate the starwars galaxy, there is nothing that could stop it at that point, plus they will have full control of the outer rim and then start closing in on the republic once the CIS is dealt with.

[@Discount_Jesus]

@@mrcaptain3703it’s a stretch, and maybe even a little dumb, but with the flood, it’s possible the force itself might actually destroy the flood

[@WhatIsThatThingDoing]

If we go off the midichlorian explanation of the force, it comes down to if, or perhaps when the flood biomass can successfully assimilate them to get the benefits. If not, perhaps it can attempt to replicate them somehow, though it may take a little time to proliferate. If the force itself resists them, neither is going to work in it's favour. It could be a case like the Yuuzhan Vong, where a hypothetical absence from the force makes them hard to predict and detect, but noticeable by the absence of the force rather than by the presence.

[@TheStuffEnjoyer]

First of all, they should have used tractor beams to throw the remains of the Forward Unto Dawn into the nearest sun... It's better than shooting it because a piece of debris can splinter off with a hidden infection that can be discovered by scavengers and make things worse. Also, can you please do another version of this where the Flood arrive in the time of Darth Vader and Darth Sidious please? I wanna see how Death Stars can be used Vs the Flood. Darth Sidious doesn't have to pretend to be a good guy who cares for life on planets. He can just order the Death Star to annihilate the planets with Flood infestations. Or he can go the Zilo beast route and do all he can to capture the Flood for experimentation. Alternatively, you can have the Flood arrive during the Old Republic time too. Or the post Vader and Sidious era where the Rebels are in control.

[@asandax6]

Bad idea using death stars. You need to glass the planet and not blow it up giving the flood a chance to infect other worlds through panspermia.

[@Alex-mn5rs]

Planet-destroying weapons were standard issue on Forerunner warships, a single planet killer won't make a difference, nor would the empire's ruthlessness. The Star Wars universe is too vast and free, the moment the flood gets a foothold on a single planet it's over. Space-faring vessels are as common as cars in Star Wars, so the best case scenario is that someone with a nuke happens to be at the infected planet and strikes within 10 minutes of first contact.

An alternative theory....what if the flood infects a Sith? Gains a connection to the force. I feel like the Flood could have an easy time connecting to the Dark Side. If it manages to infect Palpatine it could gain all his Dark side knowledge and leverage it against the greater galaxy. Maybe it even finds a way to infect via the force itself which could make it impossible to stop. The resulting devastation could be much worse then this scenario. They got off lucky in this one.... If infection via the force is a possibility it would be a likely outcome of any Flood invasion here. It could only take the infection of a single force sensitive individual that dooms everyone.

[@carloszestyboy2901]

Once a gravemind is formed it’s the beginning of the end. Not even the Forerunners could defeat the intelligence of a gravemind, which turned their greatest weapon against them, outmaneuver led their every strategy par the rings themselves, and even infected the fabric of space-time itself. Once the Flood reaches this level, there’s little to nothing in the Star Wars universe that stands a chance. Abeloth maybe, but at this stage the Flood is basically god-like and omniscient so unlikely.

This video makes me wonder: What if the Doom Hell invaded the Star Wars universe?

[@dustinnelson123]

That's very close to shattering the veil that prevents us from an animal crossing crossover

[@unicron2xlgaminghobbies107]

@dustinnelson123 Perhaps, but I have to wonder: Would the Force be amplified by the ambient Argent energy found in Hell? What about the dark side, in particular, since Argent energy is harvested by the torment and suffering of souls trapped in Hell?

[@Synth_H3art]

I cannot rave enough about how incredible this vid is! Can feel the love and care it took to make this fr. I adore the fact that it’s both written into a fleshed out story and fully voice acted too like 😮 Kinda tired of the essay format in a lot of theory videos where things are just infodumped at me on what would happen.

[@SapphireDragonflame]

aye, I suggested this one! Wasn't expecting the flood but still cool!!

[@MR-zk3fy]

just about 5 minutes in and this has me enthralled. hope it carries through.

[@MR-zk3fy]

yeah so good story. Given the time you had I think you covered a good scenario. If this were a very long vid though, so much more could have been introduced. Also, I feel like with the amount of biomass that the flood had by this point they'd probably have had multiple graveminds, or more worrying would have been closer to keymind status than this scenario begets. Only so much you can do I spose. Do wonder if there was anything in the SW universe that could have corrected cortana's rampancy though. would have been interesting to fully explore this.

[@zooomtoall1024]

The blue shadow virus could go so badly for the Star Wars side if it doesn't destroy the flood immediately. Imagine if the flood has enough time to adapt and add the virus to its arsenal. Congratulations now, every single flood form can kill u just by breathing the same air as it, and hives r completely full of the stuff mixed with flood spores to infect u right after u die.

[@Jamiemundy32]

You are thinking of the Tyranids there

[@7ElevenTruther]

Well, the flood in it's later stages can already do this to an extent with airborne flood spores.

[@zooomtoall1024]

@@Jamiemundy32 im not though the flood is just as good if not better than the tyranids at adapting.

[@heededshadow509]

Honestly I have doubts the virus even COULD harm the flood in any way. It doesn't destroy biomass, and the fact it's a natural (mostly) virus makes me think it wouldn't even infect them, both because of the flood's tendency to make anything biological part of itself but also because I don't think the flood counts as an organism that can get infected. I don't know everything about the virus but unless it can infect literally everything like plants, fungi and even single-celled organisms it's unlikely an existence like the flood could even be carriers.

[@noname8121]

They do that anyway

[@TheRealRightPrice]

This was outstanding storytelling.

[@yobud6637]

Fascinating story, but in the very first interaction where Anakin gets grabbed by a combat form, he would already be infected. All it takes is one cell to make contact with a living being to begin the transformation. A cell likely could have simply been breathed out in Anakin's direction and it would be over for him.

[@dustinnelson123]

That will be a sweet crossover

[@mcjaggerson]

I was scrolling through my feed seeing what sounded good to watch. I saw the title of this video and instantly thought “hmm good concept, something new and refreshing”. You sir have another subscriber

[@krazerkap]

Here's another crossover then: What if the Borg from Star Trek joined the Clone Wars?

[@basileusywolvish7416]

This is almost a complete twist on the flood scenario. This video was based off of because instead of a biological assimilation it’s a technological one and that is even more terrifying because there’s no big hero to help you.

[@krazerkap]

@@basileusywolvish7416 Imagine in that story if Force Sensitives were assimilated. The Borg using the Force. And not only that, but Borg adapting to block blasters and lightsabers.

[@basileusywolvish7416]

@@krazerkap that would be horrifying

[@CASA-dy4vs]

The Borg would be incredibly vulnerable to Star Wars weaponry since Star Trek shields are basically stopping sci-fi lasers while turbo lasers are basically superheated gas/plasma which can tear through shields of any type in Star Wars one way or another

[@OmniSIC]

​@CASA-dy4vs Actually, Romulan weapons are similar to turbo lasers because Romulans use plasma. Each faction in Star trek uses a different energy based weapon, that's why they are different colors. The borg ships could lose to the death star for the same reason the drones could lose to lightsabers. The borg can not adapt to living energy, so the kyber crystals that power both the lightsabers and the deathstar beam would take out the borg repeatedly and easily. Though, unless the deathstar had shields to block transporters or fired at the borg before they scanned it (because they always scan first and need only do it once) it would be overtaken too easily. BOTH the deathstar in space and lightsabers on ground are the only way The Star wars galaxy would stand a chance.

[@caseymcpherson5658]

I appreciate the choice of doing this during the Republic/Clone Wars era, because Empire/Original Trilogy era would just be the death star being fired repeatedly, possibly multiple times, maybe additional death stars being made... I mean, it'd be rough, but it would be resolved a lot quicker.

[@levicarpenter5509]

[@alexander.tahtadjian]

Why do I have the feeling that the mere idea of the Flood being in the SW universe that would not only give the Sith a run for their money but is also a very bad thing for everyone involved. Plus it’s nice to see you do a Halo x Star Wars ‘what if’ because the UNSC, the Covenant and the entire Halo universe would fit perfectly well within the SW universe…in the most beautiful way possible. Plus Master Chief and Cortana would be very good friends with Anakin, Ahsoka, Rex and the 501st. I do have a few ideas for some possible what if’s: 1) What if Rey was a Mandalorian…essentially what if Din Djarin found Rey and took her in as a Foundling. 2) What if Ezra was a Mandalorian…something like how both his parents were Mandalorians who left Mandalore and went to start their own lives (you could still keep most of Ezra’s backstory) and potentially make Ezra and Sabine a couple (since Disney won’t, we have too…#ezrabine4ever. 3) What if Jango Fett and/or Boba Fett Joined the Republic…I think something interesting could happen with this. 4) What if Rey, Finn and Poe went back in time to the Clone Wars…this would make the World Between Worlds even more of an important focal point and I could also see them get along well with Anakin, Ashoka, Rex and the rest of the 501st (it would be fun to see Rey, Finn and Poe join the 501st) I hope these are some amazing ideas for some potential What if’s

[@Ragnorok657]

That would be for the star wars visions show it is what if as hell

[@asandax6]

Run for their money is an understatement they would consume everything in their path and gain the knowledge and abilities of everyone they consume. Unless you have the capabilities to destroy Neural Physics (which doesn't kill the flood mind you but merely resets it) you are f****d.

Only thing is with neural-physics the gravemind would be endlessly rebuilding on any available hive worlds until they were all wiped out. If the flood escapes its single outbreak planet only Halos can clean it for good.

[@guiltyspark3434]

Halo rings are the answer due to being a neural-physics weapon on its own, that’s why it was so effective since it destroyed most precursor technology

[@levicarpenter5509]

I've seen a comment talking about how if the flood invaded during the empire then the death star could just resolve it quickly but forunner warships had planet killing weapons and even that wasn't enough so much to the point where they had to use the halo
