                                                      “While talking to Buck, Jun-A266 mentioned that had he lived, the Rookie would have been offered the opportunity to become a Spartan alongside the rest of his team.” -  The Rookie - Halopedia, the Halo encyclopedia                   

Translation: If we hadn’t decided to kill off the Rookie he may have appeared in Halo 5, maybe as a side character who, during the events of Halo 5, has their backstory/personality further established, OR they could of even been their own side playable character in like, Spartan Ops 2.0. But nah, fuck you guys he’s dead.
