3rd person Pov
Chief and Guilty spark was teleported back into halo controls room obviously in the middle of a conversation, explaining something about the Flood.
"...which means that any organism of sufficient mass and cognitive capability is a potential vector." said Guilty spark while Master Chief paused sensing something is not quite right.
"Is something wrong?" asked Guilty Spark.
"No... Nothing." Replied The Master Chief.
"Splendid. Shall we?" asked Guilty Spark while the both of them move towards the main control panel while Guilty Spark was randomly humming.
"Unfortunately, my usefulness to this particular endeavor has come to an end. Protocol does not allow units with my classification to... perform a task as important as the reunification of the Index with the Core. That final step is reserved for you, Reclaimer." said Guilty Spark giving the index to the Master Chief and puts it into a slot on the console which then begins light up ands several holograms appear, but then fade.
"Odd. That wasn't supposed to happen." said Guilty Spark right before Cortana suddenly appears over the console.
"Oh, really!?" said Cortana with a a flash of light and 343 Guilty Spark is thrown back, and down to the ground.
"Cortana!" said The Master chief in surprise.
"I've spent the last 12 hours cooped up in here, watching you toady about, helping that thing get set to slit our throats!" said Cortana.
"Hold on now, he's a friend." said The Master Chief.
"Oh! I didn't realize. He's your pal, is he? Your chum? Do you have any idea what that bastard almost made you do?!" asked Cortana in a angrily mocking tone.
"Yes... activate Halo's defenses, and destroy the Flood, which is why we brought the Index to the Control Center." said the Master Chief.
"You mean this?" asked Cortana holding a hologram of the index in her hands.
"A construct?! In the Core?! That is absolutely unacceptable!" said Guilty Spark.
"Sod off!" said Cortana.
"What impertinence! I shall purge you at once!" said Guilty Spark.
"You sure that's a good idea?" asked Cortana with a nasty smile on her face while absorbing the index.
"How... how... how dare you! I'll--" said Guilty Spark in a outrage.
"Do what? I have the Index! You can just float and sputter!" said Cortana. The Master Chief brings both hands up in the middle of them as if to stop a fight, then turns back to face Cortana.
"Enough! The Flood is spreading. If we activate Halo's defenses, we can wipe them out." said The Master Chief.
"You have no idea how this ring works, do you? Why the Forerunners built it? Halo doesn't kill Flood, it kills their food. Humans, Covenant, whatever. We're all equally edible. The only way to stop the Flood is to starve them to death. And that's exactly what Halo is designed to do: Wipe the galaxy clean of all sentient life. You don't believe me? Ask him!" said Cortana pointing at Spark making the Master Chief hesitate and then turns to 343 Guilty Spark.
"Is it true?" asked The Master Chief.
"More or less. Technically, this installation's pulse has a maximum effective radius of twenty-five thousand light years. But, once the others follow suit, this galaxy will be quite devoid of life, or at least any life with sufficient biomass to sustain the Flood. But you already knew that... I mean, how couldn't you?" asked Guilty Spark.
