==History==
===Post-War years===
Throughout the [[Post-Covenant War conflicts]] between [[2557]] and [[2559]], Fireteam Intrepid had worked alongside [[John-117]] and [[Blue Team]] on numerous occasions. They were considered one of the best Spartan outfits on the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}.{{Ref/Reuse|HSoR16}} According to [[Tomas Horvath]], the Spartans on Intrepid were chaos-makers on the battlefield and onboard ''Infinity''; they were known to make bets and plan pranks among themselves.{{Ref/Novel|TRP|11}}

===Reach===
{{Main|Operation: WOLFE}}
In [[2559#October|October 2559]], Intrepid were deployed alongside [[Fireteam Taurus]] were assigned to aid [[Sarah Palmer|Commander Sarah Palmer]] in securing [[nuclear weapon]]s in possession of the [[Viery Militia]] toward the end of the [[Battle of New Mohács]].{{Ref/Reuse|HSoR16}}


===Installation 07===
{{Main|Battle for Zeta Halo}}
On December 12, 2559, Fireteam Intrepid was onboard {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} when it was ambushed by [[Banished]] forces upon arrival at [[Installation 07]]. As the ''Infinity'' fell to the Banished assault, [[Captain (NAVCOM)|Captain]] [[Thomas Lasky]] was evacuated from the ship, and Spartan [[Hudson Griffin]] ordered all Spartans to evacuate.{{Ref/Game|HI|HINF:Audio log#Evacuation 2|Spartan Audio log|Detail=Evacuation #01 - Infinity Down}} Fireteam Intrepid left the ship on drop pods, and landed in a sector of the ring occupied by the Banished. Having made landfall at a location separated from the main area of engagement,{{Ref/Reuse|rp4}} the Spartans entered battle upon landfall.{{Ref/Game|HI|HINF:Audio log#Evacuation 2|Spartan Audio log|Detail=Evacuation #07 - Intrepid Descent}} They spent most of the first day moving towards the main battlefield, taking out every patrol, supply vehicle, scouting party, and support line they came across.{{Ref/Reuse|rp4}}

On the next day, while Fireteam Intrepid made their way to a trio of [[Kywasky Workshop Gorespike cannon]]s the Banished had set up south of the Silent Auditorium, they picked up a distress call from [[Lucas Browning]], one of the survivors from the trapped [[SKT-29 Bumblebee]] ''[[Papa Tango Delta 09]]''. [[Si Wheeler]] commanded Horvath to locate the Bumblebee and assist its survivors. However, while Horvath made his way to the Bumblebee, Installation 07 suddenly entered [[slipstream space]]. Shortly after, an explosion on the ring fractured its surface. The ring's surface ripped open and flung Horvath off his feet, sending him tumbling across a plateau. Amidst the chaos, Horvath was separated from his fireteam, and the explosion disabled his armor systems.{{Ref/Reuse|rp4}}{{Ref/Game|HI|HINF:Audio log#Ringfall 2|Spartan Audio log|Detail=Ringfall #07 - Alone}} 

The fate of the remaining members of Intrepid following the explosion became unknown to Horvath; they did not rendezvous with other UNSC survivors at the wreckage of {{UNSCShip|Mortal Reverie}}.{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp31|TRP|31}} Meanwhile, Horvath spent most of the next six months alone on the ring, avoiding Banished troops while attempting to contact other UNSC forces.{{Ref/Game|HI|HINF:Audio log#Reverie 2|Spartan Audio log|Detail=Reverie #03 - Choke Hold}}{{Ref/Game|HI|HINF:Audio log#Reverie 2|Spartan Audio log|Detail=Reverie #05 - Renewal}} Between December 18 and 25, he was stranded on a ring fragment with the [[Bloodstar]] [[Gorian]],{{Ref/Novel|RP|Chapter=6}}{{Ref/Novel|RP|10}} having to form an uneasy truce to escape the fragment by hijacking an [[Aggressor Sentinel]] and using it to fly back to the main fragment.{{Ref/Novel|RP|Chapter=11}}{{Ref/Novel|RP|Chapter=12}} On [[2560#March|March 4, 2560]], Horvath found the mortally-wounded [[Kate Stalling]], who informed him of the ring's [[Conspectus network]] and Gorian's intent to access the network's data. After Horvath lend Stalling an [[M6 series|M6 sidearm]] to end her suffering, Horvath buried her body and vowed to locate the Conspectus network hub and send the ring's location to the UNSC, so Stalling's sacrifice would not be in vain.{{Ref/Novel|RP|Chapter=22}}

On May 3, Horvath located a Conspectus network hub, only to find it destroyed. Instead, he came across the [[boat crew]], led by Spartan [[Nina Kovan]] and guided by submonitor [[091 Adjutant Veridity]]; he joined the group and was made aware they had retrieved the network's data from Spartan [[Bonita Stone]]'s body.{{Ref/Reuse|rp31}}{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp32|RP|Chapter=32}} At the [[Conservatory (location)|Conservatory]], he released the monitor of the ring from lockdown; [[117649 Despondent Pyre]] gave humans access to a [[beacon tower]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp34|RP|Chapter=34}} Horvath would be instrumental in the [[battle of the beacon tower]] on May 14; he took out the Banished troops guarding the tower exterior,{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp35|RP|Chapter=35}} then fought Gorian when [[Jega 'Rdomnai]] led reinforcements to the tower.{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp36|RP|Chapter=36}} However, during their fight, the two fell onto a translocation pad and were teleported away just before the pad was destroyed by a Banished [[Thrasher missile]], preventing Horvath's return or the others from following him.{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp38|RP|Chapter=38}} Horvath was teleported to a partially collapsed mountain facility somewhere far away from the beacon, where he shoved Gorian's body off the mountain. Horvath then collapsed from his injuries and spent the next day comatose—half from exhaustion—before coming to again.{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp39|RP|Chapter=39}} On May 25,{{Ref/Note|While the audio log in ''Halo Infinite'' is dated May 26, ''Halo: The Rubicon Protocol'' retconned the date to May 25. Halopedia uses the novel as the most up-to-date depiction of the events.}} Horvath issued a final transmission, announcing that he planned to move away from Banished territory to search for survivors. He also made an open plea to the [[John-117|Master Chief]] that they need him now more than ever.{{Ref/Reuse|rp39}}{{Ref/Game|Hi|HINF:Audio log#Scattered 2|Spartan Audio log|Detail=Scattered #10 - Message in a Bottle}}

Approximately two weeks later, on June 6, Horvath helped the Master Chief take down a flight of Banshees attacking ''[[Echo 216]]''. After being informed that Cortana was gone and had set off the explosion that fractured Zeta Halo, Horvath told the Master Chief that he had lost his team in the explosion.{{Ref/Novel|Id=EOD14|EOD|Chapter=14}} After catching up with the Pelican's occupants, including a recently rescued Lucas Browning, Horvath took the Banshee to draw away eight incoming Banished aircraft. Before they parted ways, John-117 gave some of his equipment to Horvath, while Joyeuse transmitted UNSC FOB coordinates to Elfie.{{Ref/Novel|Id=EOD15|EOD|Chapter=15}}{{Ref/Novel|Id=EOD16|EOD|Chapter=16}}
