At some point, a [[UNSC Army]] [[ | At some point, a [[UNSC Army]] [[D79-TC Pelican|Pelican]] was shot down in "[[the Cauldron]]" and assumed destroyed. However, the Pelican survived intact and was captured by the [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|Covenant]] who transported it to "[[Lockup]]." Tying energy tethers from the Forerunner structure into the dropship's comm systems, the Covenant were able to turn the Pelican into a listening post to spy on the UNSC's communications and anticipate their moves in battle.{{Ref/SpOps|Id=Crystal Ball|Expendable|Crystal Ball}} | ||

[[Fireteam Crimson]] and a squad of [[UNSC Marines]] were deployed to "[[Lockup]]" in order to destroy the listening post a captured [[Sangheili]] had revealed was located there. A [[ | [[Fireteam Crimson]] and a squad of [[UNSC Marines]] were deployed to "[[Lockup]]" in order to destroy the listening post a captured [[Sangheili]] had revealed was located there. A [[D79-TC Pelican|Pelican]] carrying the UNSC forces eliminated three guarding [[Unggoy]] with its guns before depositing the Spartans and Marines to complete their mission. | ||
The UNSC forces were immediately engaged by the Covenant forces defending the landing zone, but managed to eliminate them. [[Spartan-IV|Spartan]] [[Jared Miller]] directed Crimson to the door controls to the next area, but got interference around Crimson's uplink which he suspected could be why drones were unreliable in that particular area. Realizing that the Covenant had jammers, [[Commander]] [[Sarah Palmer]] ordered Miller to have them on the lookout for jammers as well. Crimson fought their way through a hallway defended by Covenant, including a [[Stealth Sangheili]] armed with an [[Type-1 energy sword|energy sword]] and reached a large open area on the other side. | The UNSC forces were immediately engaged by the Covenant forces defending the landing zone, but managed to eliminate them.

After all of the Covenant were eliminated in the area with the jammers, Miller detected a UNSC transponder in the adjacent chamber.

Entering the chamber, which was heavily defended by Covenant forces including several [[Karo'etba-pattern Ghost|Ghosts]], Crimson found a [[UNSC Army]] [[D79-TC Pelican|Pelican]] suspended in energy tethers. Miller identified the Pelican as one shot down in "[[the Cauldron]]" and assumed destroyed and it was quickly realized that the Pelican was the listening post, its comm systems enabling the Covenant to listen in on UNSC transmissions. Crimson battled the Covenant guarding the captured Pelican, bolstered by reinforcements from Phantoms and {{Pattern|Gloto'kas|Assault Carapace}}s. Eventually, Crimson managed to eliminate all of the Covenant forces. | ||
After the Covenant were gone, Miller determined that the energy tethers were tied into the Pelican's comm systems and ordered Crimson to break them. As Crimson activated the four consoles around the suspended Pelican that would sever the energy tethers, Phantoms brought in more reinforcements which failed to stop Crimson. Once the link to the comm system was severed, Miller contacted [[Robert Dalton]] for a ride out and an orbital strike to destroy the Pelican which Dalton obliged. However, before either could arrive, another Phantom deployed more Covenant troops, including four [[Mgalekgolo|Hunters]]. Crimson was able to eliminate all of the Covenant troops and clear a landing zone for extraction. | After the Covenant were gone, Miller determined that the energy tethers were tied into the Pelican's comm systems and ordered Crimson to break them.
