Oh, nice. Too disjointed for my taste though, it's written Eragon-style - more like a movie script than a litterary work. Still, pretty nice, and with the "Man vs Evil" angle that people so often skip in favour of Super-Xavier.

This was a very well-written chapter, and I have to agree that the time shifting is good - looking forward to the meeting in the Data Centre (I won't give away anything re the game, but Xander might just make a wrong assumption...). And I LOVE the line at the end - it sums up the game beautifully!
Oh, and just a little nitpick re the ending of this chapter - the sensor unit came from a crashed drone fighter, not a Warthog (the shell of the fighter can still be seen stuck in the statue).

Yeah, that realisation hit me today when I was playing through the game on Legendary today (Lost Highway and I'm done!!!) Still, I'll leave it and just say it was the nav from the Warthog, that kinda makes more sense than the drone's sensor from the game anyways :S

A well written switch on the standard HALO story where Xander is a Spartan. Not too sure about the end where Xander turns up in the HALO reality. Will eagerly await and see, great teaser, thanks.

I was wondering who'd take the first shot at ODST - and it does seem like a good start. A little light on the Sunnydale side, but I imagine most of the action will be taking place in 2552, anyway...
Well done for a startoff - hope to see more...

Expect to see a 50/50 split between the Sunnydale and New Momabasa narratives. Time skipping is fun! And I've watched enough episodes of Lost to know how to do it right I think :P
