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/Reuse|cp236}} | ||
Meanwhile, Delgado was imprisoned by one of the Rubble Security Council members, Peter Bonifacio, on the charges of failing to protect the navigation data.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 120''</ref> Fortunately, the Security Council pardoned him in exchange for giving back the data to them to move it to [[Habitat Exodus]], an emergency evacuation habitat for the Rubble. Peter Bonifacio and [[Diego Esquival]], another Council member and long time friend of Delgado, accompanied Delgado to his ship, the ''Distancia''. However, when Delgado handed the chip to Esquival, Bonifacio quickly held the two at gunpoint and demanded that Diego handed the data to him. Diego refused and was shot. Bonifacio took the data and retreated while Delgado returned fire from his own pistol. He grabbed Diego and re-entered the airlock.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 234''</ref> However, Bonifacio shut down the airlock and disabled the communications. He quickly undocked and flew away, leaving Delgado and Diego to die.
