[[Fireteam Crimson]] was transported by [[Lieutenant]] [[TJ Murphy]] in their stolen [[Type-44 Phantom|Phantom]] to "[[Cyclone]]." [[Commander]] [[Sarah Palmer]] ordered the [[Spartan-IV|Spartans]] to destroy the plasma stockpiles located there. Almost immediately upon landing, Crimson was engaged by Covenant troops, including [[Type-32 Ghost|Ghosts]], while Murphy's Phantom provided them with covering fire. As Crimson fended off the attacking Covenant, Spartan [[Jared Miller]] detected the first plasma stockpile and directed Crimson to the location. Clearing out the nearby Covenant forces, Crimson successfully destroyed the stockpile. | |||
After the destruction of the first stockpile, Miller detected UNSC inventory transponders near Crimson's position and Palmer ordered Crimson to check it out. Crimson cleared out the Covenant forces near the stolen UNSC gear, allowing Miller to use their armor's sensors to get a scan on the equipment. Once the scan was done, Miller tracked down an override system for the doors to the central structure, but Crimson found the entrance blocked. Instead, Miller redirected Crimson to a second plasma stockpile that he had detected. However, this one was guarded by a heavier Covenant presence, including a [[Type-26 Wraith|Wraith]]. Despite the heavy resistance, Crimson was able to clear the area and destroy the second plasma stockpile. | |||
Miller located the last plasma stockpile, at least the last stockpile outside and directed Crimson to its location. Crimson was able to destroy the third plasma stockpile, depriving the Covenant of further use of the stockpiles.<ref name="Search and Destroy" /> | |||
