good story, and one question the suit of samus you choose the power suit or the varia suit becuase you said in the story "an armor was colored yellow and red" but you know those two colors are always in the center of the suit

The varia suit. I guess I wasn't thinking too clearly when I read that. Besides, orange is yellow and red.

"Thel'Vadam"..... is that his real name?

Yep. When he served in the Covenant military, the Elites had the suffix "ee" at the end of their names, so he was Thel 'Vadamee, but during the Great Schism, the Elites dropped the "ee" suffix because they were no longer part of the Covenant.
Btw, you can read about him in the book Cole Protocol.

Yeah.
The Halo Graphic Novel.
Uprising.
Helljumper.
Bloodlines.
The Fall of Reach (comic book adaption).
The Fall of Reach is the title of the first Halo novel, written by Eric Nylund, and is arguably the most important book of them all. It is the story of the Master Chief, John-117.
Speaking of whom, in the first two issues of The Fall of Reach comic, you can see the Chief's face when he was a child.

It's Ghosts of Onyx. Then there's Contact Harvest, then the Cole Protocol. Then there's Halo: Evolutions, a series of awesome short stories written by different authors, Eric Nylund among them. The newer versions of the first books have information at the end of their stories, special secrets.
And then there's the fabled Forerunner trilogy, the first book has already been released, Halo Cryptum. A novel that will completely change your understanding of the Halo universe. O_O
There's also the comic books. The Halo Graphic Novel, Halo Uprising, Halo Helljumper, Halo Bloodline and recently, the Fall of Reach.
I LOVE THIS STORY!!

In the first couple issues of the Fall of Reach, Bootcamp series, you get to see the Master Chief's face when he was a child.
By the third issue, after his augmentation, his face becomes more obscured, whether it's by bandages or the shadows, it's harder to see his features.

^_^ I love seeing the smile on your face. We all love the story.
The encyclopedia covers about all the Halo material up to Halo 3: ODST, it even mentions a bit about the viral campaign for Halo 2.
That story was really complicated. @_@

awesome ^^ i just finished the third game today for the second time. its awesome! lol im guessing that you are also a metroid fan since you did a crossover. i have read the little comic, but i have only had the honer of playing only one of the games sadly.
(is it just me or are there a lot of coincidences when it comes to the two of them?)

Samus only had an AI friend in one game, Fusion.
You could find the comics on the Metroid Database website. Google the Metroid Database.
Remember, only the Metroid Manga is officially canon. The rest aren't.

I think you're confusing him with the Halo Wars Arbiter.

The Halo Wars Arbiter's name is Ripa 'Moramee.
I recently learned that the Shirley thing is a joke. In one cutscene, he exclaims to Regret, "Destroy this holy relic? Surely you jest!"
In a movie somewhere, there was dialogue where someone would say something like that, and the response would be, "Don't call me surely!" And there would be more humorous exchange.

it is actually Thel 'Vadamee. the double e represents that he was in the military and is explained in the cole protocol which is the latest book

You're right, but according Halopedia, the Elites dropped the "ee" when the Covenant was split.
