Master chief is broken from losing cortana and is given a leave from the unsc. At sometime he finds out that Halsey is Mia with the storm covenant. Master chief, voluNteers for the mission and is sent after her. After being given his own long sword along with marines and spartan Gabriel Thorne he finds the vessel in which Halsey is kept on. He takes out the entire covenant fleet with the 36 nuclear warheads he is given and boards the ship. This is where u get to lead your own team of marines through the ship(2nd player gets thorne for the first half of the game) after fighting through the ship u reach jul mdama and Halsey. Only halsey isn’t a prisoner, but an ally. Cheif is then given the order to kill jul mdama and Halsey. He instead captures them both and receives the Janice key. Cheif then heads back for earth and keeps the prisoners a secret but turns in the Janice key. ONI then uses the key to find that the most powerful forerunner machine has been in the djamong crater all along. When cheif learns this he sets off on his long sword and goes after the machine. When he gets there the crater collapses and unveils 4 forerunner war sphinxes that suddenly take off and destroy the entire jungle along with the unsc forces in the area. The didact then confronts chief and subdues him but appears weaker than before. He explains his survival and his plan to unleash his war sphinxes on humanity. He then enters one of the sphinxes and all but one sphinxes vanish into the sky. Cheif than has to make his way to the long sword in which he sky battles the sphinx and wins. The game then follows chief as he attempts to find the didact throughout the galaxy. The other half of the game has your companion as the arbiter. At the end of the game the chief, arbiter and Thorne defeat the didact, when monstrous creature teleports to you and kills the didact. He then turns to the chief and says “now, humanity, time for your real test.” And the game ends.

Here’s how I think Halo 5 will play out:
At some point, the UNSC captures Halsey.
Chief knows the only way to bring back Cortana is with Halsey’s help.
He talks with Lasky about it, Lasky tells him, “If I were in your position, I know what I would do”.
We know Laskey thinks Halsey shouldn’t be persecuted, and he understands John and his connection with Cortana.
Anyways, John infiltrates wherever Halsey was taken, and breaks her out.
And no Marine or Spartan wants to shoot at the Chief.
He escapes with Halsey.
After that, he and Halsey have a discussion.
He asks Halsey why she’s being persecuted.
She tells him that she sided with the Storm.
He asks why and she explains what evil things ONI has planned, including the annihilation of the Sanghelli.
Halsey also explains that it’s almost impossible to bring Cortana back.
John, crushed by this, seemingly shrugs it off and decides to warn Arbiter.
While traveling to Sanghellios, John’s spacecraft is shot down and crash lands on a strange Forerunner planet/ring.
This being the location seen in the teaser trailer.
Storm is there and John takes out a large number of them so he can get more weaponry.
Eventually, the weakened Didact shows up, along with the War Sphinx.
After that, I couldn’t guess what happens.
I can tell you that Master Chief, Infinity, and killing will be in it.
That’s about it.

And Forerunners/Prometheans… and grunts.
> >I don’t think being sad over the “death” of a computer is a good enough excuse for a Spartan to go on leave.
> Then you obviously haven’t met the chief or cortana
> >Surely Halsey is tricking Jul so she can find some way to get the Janis key half to Earth.
> Not necessarily, to be fair she honestly does not like ONI/ the UNSC right now (and I don’t blame her)
> >Wouldn’t Fred, Linda, and/or Kelly accompany Chief instead of Thorne?
> Hell yeah
> >Where did the Arbiter come from?
> Sanghelios?
> >Why would Chief keep Jul alive?
> What Jul did is justified baring in mind the inhumanities that ONI did to him, he shares that trait in some ways with Halsey. Anyway, Elites aren’t that bad, think of old Arby
> >What would Chief do with Halsey?
> Save cortana? get answers? reminisce about his childhood I dunno
> >At this point, the UNSC would send an entire fleet after the Didact.
> Yeah, to be honest I don’t think we should face the didact again, although his ‘death’ wasn’t very satisfying
> >That’s not a very satisfying ending
> Nope, it isn’t.
And as for the whole plot, I’ve heard better, and worse, but I somehow doubt we will be facing the Didact again. With Halo 5 becoming a far darker story I feel we may tackle a threat a little closer to home, ONI maybe?
I hope he joins Jul at some point. To have Covie allies again would be too awesome, but it’d be nice to help Jul enact his revenge to a certain extent.

Cortana isn’t a typical computer, John and her have literally shared a brain throughout their career together, and Cortana herself existed as the last anchor John had to his humanity, his last friend. It isn’t so much the death of Cortana as the death of everything he ever knew and loved (or what passes for love for a Spartan). After everything that’s happened to him, saying he’s a totally sane individual would just be wrong.
Agreed with everything else though.
Thats not really a plot, more so a synopsis of how you would want the game to play out.
I really don’t want the Didact to die. He doesn’t deserve it. It’s the Flood’s fault he became insane and hell bent on wiping out humanity. Sure he never had any particular love for humans, but he never wanted to exterminate them. I’m hoping that he’ll be “cured of his crazy” somehow.
Personally, I would like to see the Janus key destroyed. I don’t want Halo becoming even Humanity -Yoink- Yeah. Because that’s a -Yoinking!- terrible story to have. Perhaps give Sanghelli a power-boost. Lord knows how weak the Travissty left them, what with the entire race of Engineers magically disappearing and what not.
