Raid on Mount Haven: Difference between revisions

In [[2552#August|August]] of [[2552]], Mount Haven was attacked by the Covenant. A team of [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper]]s, including [[Gage Yevgenny]], [[Eric Santiago]], and several other ODSTs under the command of [[Colonel]] [[Felicia Sanderson]], were involved in an operation to infiltrate the city of [[Mount Haven]], then under siege by the Covenant, who were looking for [[Forerunner]] artifacts. Simultaneously, several former [[Colonial Military Administration|CMA]] members were performing a clandestine operation to extract a massive supply of [[gold]] bullion from a bank. However, after infiltrating the bank, the ODST team discovered a class of school children and [[Julian|their teacher]] hiding in the underground vault, hoping to survive the planet's inevitable [[glassing]]. After loading two Pelicans full of gold, the ODSTs knew there was no room for the children. To deceive the [[civilian]]s, the troopers claimed that the gold would be used in the UNSC's war effort. Gage, who had seen too many people killed by the Covenant, was in strong favor of postponing the theft to save the civilians. The other ODSTs, who claimed that the children were as good as dead, disagreed, causing an argument. Felicia stepped in, wanting to call in more Pelicans, but the other ODSTs had already raised their weapons at one another. In an instant, Gage was shot in the abdomen, three other squad members were dead, and Felicia was fatally wounded. Gage rushed to her side, but she died in his arms.
