Thirty-seven days later the ''Callisto'' boarded another merchant vessel. They were courteously allowed aboard, however they found the cargo bay empty. The bay doors then opened and they were blasted into space. The merchant crew then swarmed into the ''Callisto'', murdered the remainder of its crew, and gutted and replaced its computer system. | Thirty-seven days later the ''Callisto'' boarded another merchant vessel.

Their crews and their weapons were inexperienced and untested. | ||
On March 2, [[2494]], the battle group confronted the ''Callisto'' in the 26 Draconis System. The destroyers all fired six of their seven [[Ares Missile|Ares missiles]], and in response, the Insurrectionists maneuvered behind an asteroid, which it then detonated in the direction of the UNSC vessels using a nuclear warhead planted beforehand. The ''Buenos Aires'' was destroyed and the other two destroyers severely damaged. The entire bridge crew was killed or incapacitated, with the exception of [[Second Lieutenant]] [[Preston Cole]], who was left unharmed. As the last remaining bridge officer, Cole took control of the ''Las Vegas''. | On March 2, [[2494]], the battle group confronted the ''Callisto'' in the 26 Draconis System.

Cole signaled the ''Callisto'', declaring their surrender. However, he ordered the crewmen to remove the ship's last Ares missile from its silo and transport it to Cargo Bay 5. When the Callisto docked with the ''Las Vegas'' at Cargo Bay 5 the missile was fired directly into the corvette, crippling it and forcing its surrender. | Cole signaled the ''Callisto'', declaring their surrender.
