Team Jersey

"So, do we have cheerleaders?"

- Jersey

Team Jersey refers to the companionship between civilian Jersey Morelli and the rogue AI Durga. The latter came up with the name on her own and adamantly refused for it to be called "Team Durga", perhaps reflecting the relationship between an AI and their Captain. She later expanded it to include her "crew", a group of people she spied on and to whom she developed personal attachment.

History
Team Jersey began when, after the crashed, Durga inadvertently sent herself to Jersey's home computer and developed an attachment to him. She simultaneously started spying on Kamal Zaman because she subconsciously recognized him as her brain donor's brother. She started spying on Jan James at Jersey's request because he was attracted to her, and Durga learned Jan was a Spartan 1.1. She later started spying on ONI analyst Rani Sobeck when Rani started looking into matters related to the Apocalypso.

Durga only observed Jan, Kamal, and Rani; however, when gangster Thin Kinkle abducted and tortured Jan, she secretly helped Jan's mother Gilly rescue her. Shortly after, Durga had Jersey reveal their activities to Jan. To gain her loyalty, Durga assisted Jan, Gilly, and Gladys Wilson in assaulting Kinkle's building Crystal Security and take revenge.

After determining that a Forerunner artifact being kept by ONI's Chawla Base was a threat, Durga assembled all the members of Team Jersey to launch a raid to deactivate the device before its countdown triggered something bad. Though Jan got injured and Rani got arrested, the raid was successful. A week later, the AI posed as a lawyer named Ms. Durga to have Rani released. When the Covenant began invading Earth, she sent Jersey's mother and Rani's cousin to secure facilities to ride out the attack. The future of the group is unknown.
