Halo: The Flood Novel Novels & Stories

The curtains were dancing as the wiind blow and i saw the full moon shining. My mouth parted, wanting so bad to capture the breathtaking scenery i am seeing. I almost jumped when i saw an animal facing the moon not far from i am. I looked down again and frowned when i found out that i am in a tall building and i also saw nearby buildings, the most beautiful ones was the one in front painted with a dirty white. Its door is in the middle of two golden symbolic crown. My jaw slacked upon realizing that it's a palace. I hid myself when i saw some guards observing. I slowly walked backwards, now feeling afraid and i just found myself in a dark hallway.

She found her loading her rifle. “There are a lot of them out there. It looks like he’s brought his army,” Maggie muttered. Brandon ran to the window. The dark of night was filled with red eyes as far as he could see. It was like a field of rubies reflecting the light of the moon. Tara moved beside Brandon and silently took in the sea of fiery eyes and once again recalled Liam’s words. ‘You have near you very dear souls who, together with you, will be able to stop the evil that has been unleashed.’

Chapter 54 The Gift The Halo deck shimmered to life, its holographic projections weaving a breathtaking tapestry of color and light. Niklaus and Kie had chosen a Starlit night: a view from Heaven. It was amazing it seemed like you were walking on thin air among the stars in the Heavens.

Just then, a brilliantly-colored barrier of light appeared around Wilbur. He stood in the middle of this barrier, completely unmoving. The terrifying Halo of Death struck the barrier, and Maddox let out a crazed laugh. No power could withstand the Halo of Death. It was the God of Darkness' ultimate move, powerful enough to destroy any living being and send their soul to feed the God of Darkness. However, Maddox's smile froze the very next instant. The light shooting out of Halo of Death was completely absorbed by Wilbur's Dragon's Safehaven without even causing the slightest of ripples.

The ground split as something rose from the rock, a figure larger than any shadow before, its body a fusion of bone and rusted metal, eyes burning with the same crimson light that had pulsed in the ruins. Vame’s voice was grim. “A Hollowed One.” The creature lunged. Elior and Bram moved first, their weapons meeting the monster’s shifting body. But steel did nothing. The Hollowed One’s form bent and reformed, its burning gaze fixed on Rael. He felt it inside his mind. The Hollow Crown knows you. Rael stumbled back. The book in his hands burned, the words shifting wildly. He barely understood what he was reading, but when he spoke them aloud, the creature screamed.

He ventured to pick it up with his hands but the temperature of the halo melted off his hand, up to his shoulder level, and while he was screaming in pain and agony, Theresa gave him a death blow, clamped the halo with the hook rod, and ran off. She opened a door which she wasn't familiar with, and noticed as soon as she got in that the place was a morgue. She spotted the body of a girl and immediately ran towards her. She felt her skin and noticed that it was beginning to turn cold - it mustn't have been long since she died, and without thinking twice, she turned the girl over and placed the hot, glowing halo on her back. The halo melted into her skin, and the injuries from the burn healed

“Vera… Gabriel… the halo around the moon… it’s changing.” I felt it before the words even hit the air—the temperature in the room dropped. The hairs on the back of my neck stood on end as I turned toward the messenger. The walls of the tent seemed to pulse, as though the very land itself was reacting. “The halo…” the messenger’s voice shook. “It’s thickening, turning red at the edges.” The room fell silent, the weight of the words hanging heavy. Everyone turned to the large window, their gazes drawn to the sky outside.

"The water is rising!" Luke shouted, wading through knee-deep water that was flooding the corridor. The magnificent city of Sanctuary was screaming. The bio-luminescence was dying, replaced by the red strobe lights of the emergency alarm. Massive chunks of obsidian ceiling crashed into the flooding streets. They reached the Energy Tower. Inside sat a single, sphere-shaped metallic pod. It looked ancient, covered in dust. "This fits four people max!" Sebastian yelled, looking at the five of them.

"I am the book." He kissed Cale’s freezing forehead. "Now warm up. That's an order." They lay there in the dark library, wrapped in stolen velvet, while the house settled around them. The water had stopped rising. The door held. But Elion knew the truth. The tide wasn't gone. It was just waiting for the next high water mark. And Cale... Cale was running on fumes. Anomaly 90: The Flood. Fact: The house tried to drown us.

Every human was, for the first time in five thousand years, their own Master. But the recoil was catastrophic. The Sahara needle began to implode. The black glass shattered outward, and the building started to sink into the sand. "The Shareholders... they're retreating!" Malphas shouted, shielding his eyes as the drones flickered out of existence, unable to process a world they no longer owned. "But Elara…..you're burning out! You can't hold the bridge!" Vane lunged for her, catching her as she collapsed. Her body was impossibly hot, the violet fire now a blinding white.
