It was tasked with locating and securing [[Vice Admiral]] [[Danforth Whitcomb]].<ref>'''[[Halo: First Strike]]''', ''page 24''</ref> In reality, however, Whitcomb was more concerned about the safety of the [[NOVA bomb]] that he hoped the [[Covenant]] would take with them during their excavation of top of CASTLE base. After securing Vice Admiral Whitcomb and the bomb, [[Frederic-104]] told his team to stay put, as the fall back was too "hot".<ref>'''Halo: First Strike''', ''pages 111-112''</ref> | ||

They were holed up in Camp Independence for three weeks, in which they broadcasted [[Oly Oly Oxen Free]] on the [[COM|UNSC E-Band]] until they received a return transmission from [[John-117]] and [[Cortana]]. Anton went outside to meet John and the others and led them inside, where John told Vice Admiral Whitcomb about the events on [[Installation 04]]. Afterward they escaped in a captured [[Spirit]] dropship. They flew to the remains of [[CASTLE Base]] to try and find teams Alpha and Delta, in which they were successful. | ||
After flying down a tunnel created by the [[Covenant]] down to a [[Forerunner]] [[ | After flying down a tunnel created by the [[Covenant]] down to a [[Forerunner]] structure underneath [[CASTLE Base]], the team split up, with Li staying on board and the rest getting out, and went over to the far side of the structure to rescue Fred, [[Kelly-087]], [[William-043]] and Dr. [[Catherine Halsey]]. Soon after they became surrounded by thousands of [[Elite]]s, [[Grunt]]s, [[Kig-yar|Jackal]]s, and several pairs of [[Hunters]]. Though the Hunters fired, they were quickly killed by their own comrades, due to the concern for the [[Forerunner Crystal]]. Using the artifact, they managed to escape in the Spirit dropship. They then proceeded to leave [[Reach]] and meet up with Cortana and the ''[[Ascendant Justice]]'', jumping from the system. Team Gamma's mission was successful despite of all the [[Covenant]] forces on [[Reach]]. | ||

Whilst | Whilst slipping into Slipspace, the [[Forerunner crystal]] they found on [[Reach]] started to behave weirdly and caused a [[slipspace]] error in which other ships could slip in and out of and shoot in. During this battle the remaining [[Elites]] aboard ''Ascendant Justice'' blew a conduit and forced the [[Spartans]] to go EVA and fix the ship. The operation was going well until a [[plasma]] torpedo struck the dropship, killing Anton, Li and [[Petty Officer, Second Class]] [[Sheila Polaski]]. | ||

As the last surviving member of Team Gamma, Grace ventured to the [[Covenant]] ship the ''[[Unyielding Heirophant]]'' with the members of [[Blue Team]] and set of the fusion reactors. On board, the group was confronted with a pack of [[Brutes]], that were wielding [[Brute Shot]]s. Grace suffered a direct hit to the midsection which killed her. After she died, her [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor|suit]] tripped the automated [[Fail-safe detonation system|failsafe]] system that killed four [[Elites]] and a dozen [[Grunts]]. | |||
