Halo: Contact Equis
The Covenant have glassed Reach and the UNSC have scattered in multiple directions. The Ad Meliora, a Halcyon-Class Light Cruiser, rushed its launch and ended up going into slipspace to an unmapped corner of the Milky Way Galaxy. The area of space is so remote, the Ad Meliora loses contact with its sister ship; The Pillar of Autumn.
After finally coming out of slipspace, the crew of the Ad Meliora find themselves in a dark, secluded, and unmapped part of space. Not long, a Covenant Assault Carrier also exit’s subspace, following the Ad Meliora. Seeing an unmarked planet nearby, the Captain orders the ship to fly towards the planet to try and hide from the Covenant Assault Carrier. The Planet they choose to hide on however, is fully inhabited by various creatures who are unaware of the conflict and will soon be in the middle of a bloody war. While the crew of the Ad Meliora find a way to repair their ship, they dedicate themselves in protecting the inhabitants from the Covenant.
The Ad Meliora is carrying approximately 2,000 active military personnel with around 250 crew members. A few dozen ODST's and 3 Spartan-IIIs are onboard. The Spartans are Maverick-A776, Clara-B452, and Kieran-B902. The Ad Meliora has a few pelicans on board with warthogs, and scorpion tanks. Despite being decently armed, it pales in comparison to the Covenant Assault Carrier.
The Covenant Carrier is named “The Fire of the Mighty,” led by Shipmaster Khota 'Mutamee. Shipmaster Khota is armed with multiple covenant soldiers. There are an unknown number of Spirits and Phantoms, wraiths, and ghosts on board. Khota has been hunting Spartan Maverick for a while and will not stop until he sees the Spartan Commander fall in battle.

As of 2/24/2023, a huge revision of the story is taking place. Though context will remain untouched, I have a Co-Author who is helping to freshen up the story to make it more appealing and of course, make sure the fic itself is the best it can be!
