What if the Meta did survive the fall from the glacier (because he's the Meta)  BUT   he gained a form of amnesia from the fall and the loss of his AI that usually acted as his mind. Then his last memories are of the reds and blues which therefore makes him believe that they are his allies and he tracks them down not to fight them but actually to save them! This actually can add to his character, rather than just rehash him. He can even learn about how many of his friends he killed and be forced to live with the pain of being the meta! Now that would be a story It's kind of becoming a cliche now. I can see why he would want to track them down, because he would want to try to remember his life and they are the only people he remembers, but he was salvaged by the UNSC.

But there are a lot of things wrong with your theory, like the fact that his personality would not change. He wouldn't run in and save them, he would probably observe them and stalk them for a while, gathering info on them(assuming he actually tracks them to Chorus, because to the outside world, the BGC is MIA).
