Unbeknownst to the others, [[Reth]] and the Kig-Yar were intending to use the Rubble for breeding grounds.<ref name="cp236"/> To take over the Rubble, Reth had created [[The Redoubt|a sanctuary]] on [[Metisette]], a [[moon]] of Hesiod, for the [[Unggoy]]. He intended to have the Unggoy mass breed so he could have a personal army.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 197''</ref>  

The Shiva missiles caused an EMP effect which shut down the lights and the anti-gravity generators inside the habitat where Thel 'Vadamee and the rest of his crew were imprisoned.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 188''</ref> This allowed the Sangheili to proceed with an escape plan. Using an improvised spear made out of a broken leg of a cot and tied to several coils of sheets, they managed to spear the Unggoy guard and steal his [[plasma rifle]]. Saal used the rifle to destroy the lock and open the door, which allowed the Sangheili to escape. They managed to board a [[Kig-Yar shuttle]] and eventually take over a [[Kig-Yar troop carrier]], which contained a large crew of Unggoy. The Sangheili then used the ship and information gathered from the Unggoy to launch a raid on Metisette and capture Reth.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 196''</ref> After a lengthy interrogation and torture session, Reth revealed to the Sangheili that he is following orders sent from the Prophet of Truth. This confuses the Sangheili, especially [[Zhar (Sangheili)|Zhar]], since they are following conflicting orders from the Prophet of Regret. Reth managed to escape while unattended and arrived back at Metisette. He decided to begin the invasion of the Rubble to show that he was loyal to the Covenant.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 236''</ref>  

The Rubble's resident AI construct, [[Juliana]], discovered the movement of the Kig-Yar vessels and prepared the proper forces to defend the Rubble from the Kig-Yar assault. She collaborated with Gray Team and had [[Jai-006]] rescue Keyes and his imprisoned crewmates while Adriana-111 and [[Mike-120]] disabled the ''Distancia'' to retrieve the navigation data from Bonifacio.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 243''</ref> Although Adriana successfully entered the ship and dealt with the bodyguards, Bonifacio quickly fled in an escape pod. She interrogated a surviving guard and contacted Bonifacio, who gave her the location of the data in exchange for letting him free. Adriana reluctantly accepted his proposal and, with the navigation data, the two Spartans quickly moved out to help the others.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 260''</ref> Meanwhile, Jai, Keyes, and Juliana decided to take over a Kig-Yar raider, ''[[Infinite Spoils]]'', in order to confirm the possibility of a Kig-Yar attack. The ''[[Mighty Sparrow]]'', filled with ODSTs, latched onto the ''Infinite Spoils'', allowing them to plug Juliana into the Kig-Yar battle network, while another group of ODSTs assaulted the airlock outside the ship. This allowed them to gain data on the upcoming invasion by [[Reth]] from [[Metisette]].<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 267''</ref>
