==Summary== | ==Summary== | ||
{{ | [[Fireteam Crimson]] is deployed to the "[[Quarry]]," where they believe the Covenant may have taken missing Spartan [[Gabriel Thorne]]. Upon arrival the team [[Ambush at the Quarry|faces heavy resistance]]. The team searches two locations in the Quarry, but Thorne isn't there. After fending off a large wave of Hunters and Wraiths, Fireteam Crimson waits for evac at their LZ. As ''[[Pelican 653]]'' draws close it is suddenly hit and destroyed by a Covenant [[orbital insertion pod]]. Crimson and their handlers realize too late that they have stumbled into a trap when they are suddenly swarmed by [[Type-26 Banshee|Banshees]], [[Ru'swum-pattern Phantom|Phantoms]] and a {{Pattern|Zanar|light cruiser}}. | ||

All dialogue is spoken through the COM. | |||
'''{Cutscene}''' | |||
''A Pelican swoops into the Quarry.'' | |||
*'''[[Jared Miller|Miller]]''': "Roland, any more info on [[Gabriel Thorne|Thorne's]] whereabouts?" | |||
*'''[[Roland]]''': "The Elites carried him out of surveillance range. Can't do much more than give you a general direction right now." | |||
''The Pelican settles into an LZ.'' | |||
*'''Miller''': "Keep looking. And try to get Commander Palmer on the line. She needs to know what's happening. Crimson, this is straight search-and-rescue. Get in there, and see what you can find." | |||
'''{Gameplay}''' | |||
*'''Roland''': "I'm showing two likely locations where Spartan Thorne might have been taken." | |||
*'''Miller''': "Marking a waypoint." | |||
''Crimson approaches the first waypoint.'' | |||
*'''Roland''': "Sniper!" | |||
*'''Miller''': "Light him up, Roland!" | |||
''A neutralize marker appears on the sniper.'' | |||
''Crimson reaches the first waypoint.'' | |||
*'''Miller''': "I'm not seeing Thorne anywhere, Roland." | |||
*'''Roland''': "Agreed." | |||
''Crimson kills most of the [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|Covenant]] in the area.'' | |||
*'''Miller''': "Just a few stragglers, Crimson." | |||
*'''Miller''': "Oh boy... Crimson, Phantom inbound." | |||
''Numerous [[Ru'swum-pattern Phantom|Phantoms]] land and deposit reinforcements. Crimson kills most of them.'' | |||
*'''Miller''': "Still have a few Covies to clear out, Crimson. | |||
*'''Miller''': "Power source nearby. Might be worth getting a look at it?" | |||
''A waypoint appears at the far end of the Quarry.'' | |||
*'''Roland''': "There is a higher than average number of enemy forces in this area." | |||
*'''Miller''': "Might mean there's something worth guarding." | |||
*'''Roland''': "Like a Spartan." | |||
*'''Miller''': "Yup." | |||
*'''Miller''': "Eyes open, Crimson. More Covies in your area." | |||
''Crimson reaches the waypoint.'' | |||
*'''Roland''': "Lot of UNSC gear here." | |||
*'''Miller''': "Grrr... but where's Thorne?" | |||
*'''Roland''': "I've confirmed that Spartan Thorne isn't here." | |||
*'''Miller''': "Then where the hell is he, Roland?" | |||
*'''Roland''': "I've got no idea." | |||
*'''Miller''': "All right. Dalton, I need a ride home for Crimson." | |||
*'''[[Robert Dalton|Dalton]]''': "Gonna be a few on that request." | |||
*'''Miller''': "Drop pods incoming!" | |||
''Crimson fights off the first wave.'' | |||
*'''Miller''': "Watch out! Hostiles inbound!" | |||
''Crimson whittles down the second wave.'' | |||
*'''Miller''': "Drop pods coming down near your position, Crimson!" | |||
''Yet another wave.'' | |||
*'''Miller''': "Uh oh. Phantom inbound!" | |||
''Spartan kills most of the wave.'' | |||
*'''Miller''': "Just a few Covies left. I'll get markers on them." | |||
''Crimson kills them all.'' | |||
*'''Miller''': "Don't relax yet, you've got more hostiles headed your way." | |||
*'''Miller''': "If we have to wait on a ride, how about about some guns?" | |||
*'''Dalton''': "That, I can do." | |||
''Numerous ordnance pods drop from the sky, each containing a [[M6 Spartan Laser|Spartan Laser]]. Another wave of Phantoms deploys a wave of Hunters.'' | |||
---- | |||
''If the player has activated the RvB Easter egg.'' | |||
*'''Sarge''': "I know you boys wanted a life, but all I've got are these guns. I suppose you COULD assemble some sort of primitive, gun-like vehicle out of the parts. But who knows what the insurance rates would be on that bad boy..." | |||
*'''Sarge''': "Dammit, Grif, you dropped our cargo! Now how are we supposed to play [[Grifball]]!" | |||
*'''Grif''': "I think the bigger question here is why a military vehicle was sent into battle with sports equipment." | |||
''Instead of Spartan Lasers, the ammo drops are [[Gravity hammer (fiction)|Gravity Hammers]]. Rather than "Ammo" the markers read "Sports Equipment".'' | |||
---- | |||
''Crimson kills most of the Hunters.'' | |||
*'''Miller''': "Area's not secure yet. Marking your last few targets." | |||
''Crimson clears the area.'' | |||
*'''Dalton''': "Finally got your bird, Miller. Where ya want it?" | |||
''A waypoint appears at the top of the butte.'' | |||
*'''Miller''': "Put her down right here. Should be safe." | |||
''Crimson reaches the waypoint.'' | |||
*'''[[Airman]] [[Ryan Frank]]''': "This is Pelican Six Five Three. I have visual on Fireteam Crimson. Touching down at LZ." | |||
''[[Pelican 653|A Pelican]] flies low across the Quarry. As it approaches the butte it is suddenly destroyed when a falling [[Orbital insertion pod|Covenant drop pod]] slams into it from above.'' | |||
*'''Miller''': "Oh God! What was that?!" | |||
'''{Cutscene}''' | |||
''Multiple Phantoms and Banshees converge on Crimson.'' | |||
*'''Roland''': "Spartan Miller! This is pretty bad! Incoming enemy forces! Numerous." | |||
*'''Miller''': "Define numerous, Roland." | |||
*'''Roland''': "A lot! Maybe all of them?" | |||
*'''Miller''': "Ohhh boy. Crimson, brace yourselves. This is gonna get ugly." | |||
''Multiple Banshees swoop over the butte as at least five Phantoms and a {{Pattern|Zanar|light cruiser}} close in.'' | |||

==Trivia== | |||
The fifth [[Red vs. Blue]] [[Roses vs Violets|Easter egg]] is found on this level. It is the only Easter egg to affect gameplay, as the ammo drops will be Gravity Hammers (Grifball equipment) rather than Spartan Lasers. | |||
