By early [[2526]], Naomi had been assigned to [[Gold Team]], which was then led by [[Joshua-029]]. On [[2526#March|March 5]] of that year, Naomi, her team, and eight other Spartans were organized into an assault squad led by [[John-117]] with orders to board and capture a [[Covenant frigate]], ''[[Radiant Arrow]]'', orbiting the planet [[Netherop]]. To accomplish this, they were deployed from the [[prowler]] {{UNSCShip|Starry Night}} for an [[Extra-vehicular activity|EVA]] [[Boarding|boarding action]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS1|HSS|Chapter=1}} Using a flight of {{Pattern|Elsedda|Banshee}}s for cover, the Spartans stealthily approached the alien vessel.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS2|HSS|Chapter=2}} They [[Skirmish over Netherop|boarded]] the frigate via its underslung hangar and eliminated the Covenant forces stationed there without the rest of crew realizing they had been boarded. As [[Blue Team|Blue]] and [[Green Team]]s pushed further into the alien vessel, John instructed Gold Team to collect weapons and corpses to pile into the Banshees, which would be pushed into space for ONI to recover and study. Once that task was completed, Naomi and her teammates acted as support for Blue and Green, watching their backs. As the two forward teams continued on, a sensor operator aboard one of the prowlers "accidentally" broadcast a transmission on the Spartans' [[COM|SQUADCOM]], revealing their presence to the frigate's crew. Unbeknownst to them, the crewman's apparent mistake was part of an [[insurrectionist]] plot designed by [[Hector Nyeto]], who intended to get the Spartans killed. With their presence known, Blue and Green Teams split up, with John leading his team to the bridge. Meanwhile, Gold Team was caught in a prolonged firefight with some of the crew. When they had begun to run out of ammo for their own weapons, Naomi was able to quickly figure out how to operate the [[Vostu-pattern carbine|carbine]]s dropped by their adversaries. Back on the bridge, John was unable to prevent the frigate's [[shipmaster]] from activating a [[self-destruct]] sequence, forcing him to order all of his teammates to abandon ship immediately. All of the Spartans—including Naomi—made it to safety before the ''Radiant Arrow'' detonated.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS3|HSS|Chapter=3}}

That same day, Naomi-010, the other Spartans, Staff Sergeant Johnson, and Dr. Halsey left the [[Kolaqoa system]] aboard the ''Vanishing Point'', with two prowlers serving as escort. Two days later, the three ships dropped out of [[slipspace]] at Etalan and the ''Vanishing Point''{{'}}s analysts spent the next four days observing the logistics fleet's movements, trying to discern which vessels should be targeted first. By [[2526#March|March 26]], they felt confident that four of the fleet's fifteen vessels were equipment [[freighter]]s that carried spare parts that would be used to keep the Fleet of Inexorable Obedience operational in the field. At this point, the logistics fleet appeared to be preparing to leave Etalan, evidenced by the fact that they had begun syncing their orbits and bringing their [[fusion reactor]]s to full power. Since time was running out, Naomi, the rest of Gold Team, and Green Team were deployed in [[S-14 Baselard]]s with the objective of destroying the equipment freighters while Blue Team remained on the ''Vanishing Point'', preparing for their phase of the attack. Gold and Green Teams were split up into groups of two to pilot each of their Baselards. The four Spartan-manned  fighters flew at the center of a formation of twenty total Baselards. The plan was for the squadron to pierce through the logistics vessels' screen of Banshees and [[Seraph]]s, then the eight Spartans would go [[Extra-vehicular activity|EV]] after faking the destruction of their Baselards. To hide their approach, their fighters were equipped with pods of chain-linked debris that would deploy upon the crafts' destruction. Then, the Spartans would board the target vessels and plant their HAVOK nukes before fleeing. Due to the high risk involved with performing these maneuvers, both teams were given strict orders to abort the mission if it became apparent that they would not reach their targets.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS19|HSS|Chapter=19}}

After Blue Team launched from the ''Vanishing Point'' in the Banshees they had captured from the ''Radiant Arrow'', they managed to infiltrate a larger formation of Covenant fighters. With this phase of the mission completed, Naomi and the rest of Gold Team ejected from their Baselards as Green Team did likewise. As planned, the eight Spartans boarded the four equipment freighters, planted their nukes, and abandoned ship before they detonated. The fourth detonation [[Electromagnetic pulse|disabled]] the Banshee formation that Blue Team had infiltrated, forcing them to go EV. Afterwards, when the two escort prowlers moved to extract Gold and Green Teams from orbit over Etalan, their retrieval created an unintentional diversion that drew attention away from Blue Team as they destroyed the logistics fleet’s "[[Bladder ship|air-skimmers]]."{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS20|HSS|Chapter=20}}
