Line 39: Line 39:
The crew of the ''Long Time Coming'' is killed in the crash, and Iona opens Team Black's cryo pods. The Spartans assess the situation, and soon realize that the planetoid they are on does not have a breathable atmosphere. According to Iona's surface scans, a sprawling underground complex is located nearby. [[Black-One]], the team's leader, orders [[Black-Two]] to stay on the ship and raise an [[Slipbeacon|emergency beacon]] to [[UNSC Fleet Command|Fleet Command]], while she and the rest of the team take a [[M12 Light Reconnaissance Vehicle|Warthog]] and head to the underground structure, with [[Victor-101|Black-Four]] taking Iona with him. Outside, they discover the moon's surface to be filled with shipwrecks.

Meanwhile, the crew of the ''Clarity of Faith'' recover from the crash and proceed to take any serviceable vehicles from the cargo bay and move out from the wreckage. Some time later, the Spartans drive amongst the wreckage and investigate one of the crashed ships closer. Black-Four notes that the ships were destroyed from within before being shot down. Just before they can to move out, a [[Type-26 Assault Gun Carriage|Wraith]] opens fire on them. The Spartans take cover, and return fire. The story ends just as the Spartans notice [[Gatherer|a large, tentacled machine]] appearing behind them.
