Lucy—along with [[Adam-B004]], [[Min-B174]], and [[Tom-B292]]—became [[Team Foxtrot]], one of the organized Spartan-III combat teams in Beta Company.<ref name="g15"/> On [[2541|August 24, 2541]], Lucy and the rest of Team Foxtrot participated in one of a series of exercises meant to filter out extra candidates the program lacked funds to train. Lucy and Tom appropriated automated [[M202 XP machine gun]]s and with the help of the rest of their team, completed the objective. However, they continued to ambush several waves of their instructors before being forced to stand down by Chief Mendez and Lieutenant Commander Ambrose. Kurt commended them for their actions and they were accepted for further training and eventually [[Project CHRYSANTHEMUM|Spartan augmentation]].<ref>'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''pages 89-96''</ref> | ||

{{Quote|How are you sure we're alive?|Lucy's last words to Tom<ref name="torpedo">'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 27''</ref>}} | On [[2545|July 3, 2545]], Lucy and the rest of Beta Company were sent on [[Operation: TORPEDO]] to destroy a Covenant refinery on [[Pegasi Delta]], a [[natural satellite]] of [[51 Pegasi B]] in the [[51 Pegasi system]].<ref>'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 13''</ref> Before the mission, Lieutenant Commander Ambrose had intended for Lucy and [[SPARTAN-B170]] to be deployed in advance for long-term reconnaissance, though this attempt ultimately failed and she was sent in along with the main assault force.<ref>[http://www.bungie.net/projects/reach/article.aspx?ucc=personnel&cid=24040 '''Bungie.net''': ''Transcript of Mendez-Ambrose transmission'']</ref> The majority of the company was killed before reaching the refinery, but Team Foxtrot managed to get to the refinery's reactor core. They destroyed the reactor, and only Lucy and Tom managed to survive by jumping into the ocean nearby, sparing them from the immense heat. After a failed search for survivors, they escaped the moon aboard a {{Class|Black Cat|subprowler}}.<ref name="torpedo"/> | ||
Although the mission ended up as a 'success', only Lucy and Tom survived the battle. Adam and Min never made it, killed by the Covenant and a reactor, respectively. Lucy, traumatized by the incident, was diagnosed with [[posttraumatic vocal disarticulation]], rendering her unable to speak.<ref name="torpedo"/> Because of this, she was to be classified as "unfit for duty," and reassigned to the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]]'s psych branch for "psychological evaluation". Kurt Ambrose rescued her from this fate, along with Tom, convincing [[Margaret Parangosky|Vice Admiral Margaret Parangosky]] that he needed Spartan-IIIs to train the next company of Spartans. Over the next several years, Lucy and Tom became Kurt's adjutants and were instrumental in the training of the third generation of Spartan-IIIs, [[SPARTAN-III Gamma Company|Gamma Company]]. They stayed at Camp Currahee and helped in the training until [[2552]]. By early [[2551]], Lucy and Tom held the rank of Petty Officer Second Class. In February 2551, they accompanied Kurt aboard {{UNSCShip|Hopeful}} to oversee Gamma Company's augmentations. By then they had recently spent significant time in microgravity which was [[Space walk|noticeable]] from their gaits.<ref name="g98"/> | |||

After retrieving [[Team Katana]], who had been placed in [[slipspace field pod]]s, the group pushed on to Onyx's [[core room antechamber]] where they prepared to make a last stand against the incoming Covenant army to prevent them from accessing the [[slipspace portal]] into the [[Trevelyan|shield world]]. After all of the other survivors had retreated into the portal, Lucy and Tom were the last to remain at Kurt's side. At first, she and Tom were adamant not to leave their mentor behind, but Kurt knocked Tom unconscious and managed to convince a reluctant Lucy into entering the slipspace rift.

The teams regrouped at a pair of Forerunner structures and after Dr. Halsey found the entrance to one of the structures, Lucy was the first inside. She found herself in a room with a strange, light-absorbent quality. The unexpected lack of sensory stimuli caused Lucy to have a sudden flashback of Operation: TORPEDO and she started to panic, only to be calmed down by Tom.<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''page 99''</ref> Shortly later, she spotted something moving down a corridor and chased after it. Anxious to find what she was chasing after, she continued on looking and got separated from the rest of the team by falling into another room which appeared to be a hangar of some kind.<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''page 118''</ref> | ||
In the room, she discovered what she had noticed earlier: a [[Huragok]], which she accidentally killed.<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''page 122''</ref> Three other Huragok were present, and started to mourn the loss of one of their own. In order to get them to help her, she showed them her helmet. One of the Huragok—[[Prone to Drift]]—attempted to communicate with Lucy by tampering with the helmet's systems but, after several failed attempts at contact, Prone to Drift and the other Huragok led Lucy to a nearby maintenance room.<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''page 146''</ref> Here, Lucy and Prone to Drift managed to communicate with each other using a data terminal; she learned that the alien's name and that the Huragok had access to communications with the outside of the sphere and thus might be able to help the human survivors escape.<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''pages 186-194''</ref> They also revealed that the passage of time inside the [[slipspace bubble]] the sphere occupied was different from that in normal space, and that the [[Sarcophagus|utility area]] Lucy had fallen into was located within another slipspace pocket where time elapsed considerably faster than in the rest of the sphere.<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''pages 273-281''</ref> The Huragok then led Lucy to the other human survivors, who were relieved to see her as she had been gone for days in their time.<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''pages 302-308''</ref> Dr. Halsey immediately began questioning Prone to Drift and became increasingly agitated as the Huragok failed to provide her answers or allow them to establish contact with the outside in accordance with their instructions. When Halsey began threatening Prone to Drift, Lucy had a sudden emotional outburst and attacked Halsey, repeatedly screaming "No!", overcoming her posttraumatic vocal disarticulation.<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''pages 312-317''</ref> However, her ability to speak normally was not immediately restored although she managed to speak several individual words afterward.<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''page 329, 335''</ref> | |||
Soon after, the humans managed to convince the Huragok to open communications to the ONI ships outside the slipspace bubble.<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''pages 336-337''</ref> Lucy and the other survivors were then taken aboard [[prowler]] {{UNSCShip|Port Stanley}} by the ONI team [[Kilo-Five]], and were transported to [[Sydney]], [[Australia]] on [[Earth]] for a debriefing in [[HIGHCOM Facility Bravo-6]].<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''page 401''</ref> Lucy and the other remaining Spartan-IIIs were later offered the chance to integrate into the [[SPARTAN-IV program]].<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''page 435''</ref> | |||
===Conflict on Gao=== | |||
In [[2553#July|July of 2553]], the Office of Naval Intelligence learned of [[Covert Support Base 4276|a Forerunner structure]] host to [[Intrepid Eye|an ancilla]] located within the [[Montero Cave Systems]] on the human [[Outer Colony]] of [[Gao]] in the [[Cordoba system]]. Lucy and the rest of Blue Team—Fred, Kelly, Linda, Tom, Ash, Olivia, and Mark—were attached to ONI's [[717th Xeno-Materials Exploitation Battalion]], a research battalion charged with recovering the AI.<ref>'''Halo: Last Light''', ''page 33'' (Google Play edition)</ref> Meanwhile, a string of murders had been occurring in the cave systems; the UNSC forces on Gao agreed to help the [[Gao Ministry of Protection|Ministry of Protection]] with the murders while they covertly located the AI, both parties unaware that the murders were caused by the ancilla. After another victim had been discovered in the caves, Lucy, Tom, Kelly, and Linda were tasked with escorting the GMoP team and the bagged victim back to the village of [[Wendosa]], while the rest of Blue Team continued to search for the ancilla.<ref>'''Halo: Last Light''', ''page 146'' (Google Play edition)</ref> Upon arriving at Wendosa on [[2553#July|July 4, 2553]], the Spartans attempted to deliver the victim to a [[Pelican]] [[dropship]] for extraction. However, the four Spartans were spotted by members of the [[Keepers of the One Freedom]], a radical [[Covenant remnants|Covenant sect]] that had traveled to Gao in search for the ancilla. The cult's [[Jiralhanae]] leader, [[Castor]], believed that the bagged victim aboard the Pelican was actually the ancilla and ordered his forces to attack Wendosa to retrieve the AI.<ref>'''Halo: Last Light''', ''pages 134-136'' (Google Play edition)</ref><ref>'''Halo: Last Light''', ''pages 141-142'' (Google Play edition)</ref> As the Keepers of the One Freedom attacked the village, Lucy and the other Spartans helped [[Charlie Company (Gao)|Charlie Company]] defend the rest of the research battalion. While the [[company]] took a defensive position in [[Wendosa Hotel]], Lucy and the Spartans formed a skirmish ring around the hotel, attempting to disrupt enemy formations and prevent a Jiralhanae charge.<ref>'''Halo: Last Light''', ''pages 183-185'' (Google Play edition)</ref> | |||
Lucy and the | Fred, the rest of Blue Team, and [[Special Inspector]] [[Veta Lopis]] arrived at the village with the captured ancilla to aid the company. Meanwhile, while Kelly and Linda fired explosives at the Keepers from the Wendosa rooftops, Lucy and Tom—armed with heavy machine guns—were helping force the cult's forces back into retreat.<ref>'''Halo: Last Light''', ''pages 190-192'' (Google Play edition)</ref> When the Jiralhanae attempted to charge at the village, all Spartans of Blue Team worked together to thin their numbers. During the attack, Fred was ordered to return the captured ancilla to Commander [[Murtag Nelson]] at the [[Montero Vitality Clinic]]. However, while leaving Wendosa in a [[UH-144 Falcon|Falcon]], the aircraft was shot down by Keeper fire.<ref>'''Halo: Last Light''', ''pages 219-222'' (Google Play edition)</ref> The rest of Blue Team regrouped and, with Lopis, traveled to the Falcon's crash site to locate Fred and the AI. The team was assaulted by the Keepers, but they were eventually able to defeat the charging Jiralhanae with the help of the battalion's [[Alpha Company]]. Having recovered Fred and the ancilla, the team returned to the Montero Vitality Clinic.<ref>'''Halo: Last Light''', ''pages 225-239'' (Google Play edition)</ref> However, recently elected [[President of the Gao Republic|President of Gao]] [[Arlo Casille]] declared war on the UNSC forces on the planet and [[Gao battle-jumpers]] and [[Wyvern]]s were ordered to engage the battalion's remaining forces. As the rest of the unit began retreating from the planet, the Spartans and Lopis traveled to the [[Wells of Echoes]] to detonate a [[HAVOK tactical nuclear weapon]] inside to destroy the Forerunner installation within the Montero Caves, denying the anti-UNSC president access to the installation.<ref>'''Halo: Last Light''', ''pages 289-290'' (Google Play edition)</ref> Once they retrieved the ancilla and the nuke, Blue Team and Lopis regrouped in the [[Montero Jungle]]. Lucy and Tom both drove the two Warthogs, with the rest of the team aboard, to the Well of Echoes.<ref>'''Halo: Last Light''', ''pages 306-307'' (Google Play edition)</ref> Upon arriving at the Well of Echoes, the team boarded a nearby ONI [[Owl]] with Rear Admiral [[Serin Osman]] aboard. Mark dropped the nuke into the Well of Echoes and the Owl left the planet as the HAVOK detonated and destroyed the Forerunner installation.<ref>'''Halo: Last Light''', ''pages 320-324'' (Google Play edition)</ref> As the Owl traveled to the UNSC task force in Gao's orbit, Osman revealed that the Gamma Company Spartan-IIIs were to be reassigned to classified infiltration teams. Despite her initial reluctance to the plan, Lucy and the rest of Blue Team gave their "permission".<ref>'''Halo: Last Light''', ''pages 327-333'' (Google Play edition)</ref> Lucy and Tom were later assigned to the [[Spartan (branch)|Spartan branch]] in [[2553|August 2553]]. Their location remained classified following their reassignment.<ref name="catalog"/> | ||
