For the mission in the Soell system, the ship's more likable, fully functional, three-year old onboard AI [[Chauncey]] was replaced by a six-year old [[artificial intelligence]] called [[Rebecca]].<ref name="tml225">'''Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe''', "The Mona Lisa", ''page 225''</ref> Unbeknownst to the crew, Rebecca's mission was to ensure that [[the Flood]] did not escape containment in the case the [[Prison ship|prisoner transport]] ''[[Mona Lisa]]'', which had been used by ONI to conduct experiments on the Flood, had been compromised. | For the mission in the Soell system, the ship's more likable, fully functional, three-year old onboard AI [[Chauncey]] was replaced by a six-year old [[artificial intelligence]] called [[Rebecca]].<ref name="tml225">'''Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe''', "The Mona Lisa", ''page 225''</ref> Unbeknownst to the crew, Rebecca's mission was to ensure that [[the Flood]] did not escape containment in the case the [[Prison ship|prisoner transport]] ''[[Mona Lisa]]'', which had been used by ONI to conduct experiments on the Flood, had been compromised. | ||
While stationed at the derelict Installation 04, the ''Red Horse'''s crew picked up several [[cryo chamber]]s from the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}}, finding most of the occupants dead. | While stationed at the derelict Installation 04, the ''Red Horse'''s crew picked up several [[cryo chamber]]s from the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}}, finding most of the occupants dead.{{Ref/Reuse|tml225}} After searching the debris field for three days, they came across a single escape pod that had been launched from the ''Mona Lisa'', which was drifting in the debris field. Inside the pod was [[John Doe|one man]] who had manged to escape from the prison ship; however, he died soon after being rescued.<ref>'''Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe''', "The Mona Lisa", ''page 241''</ref> | ||
Foucault was ordered by Rebecca to send a squad of 18 [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] led by [[Sergeant]] [[Zhao Heng Lopez]] to the ''Mona Lisa'' to investigate. However, a Covenant ship soon arrived, making any backup impossible.<ref>'''Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe''', "The Mona Lisa", ''page 242''</ref> Once the Marines were aboard the ship, it was quickly discovered that the ''Mona Lisa'' had been overcome by the Flood. The mission saw the deaths of all but [[James MacCraw|one marine]], as well as an [[John Smith|ONI operative]] responsible for the outbreak; the ''Red Horse'' retrieved both survivors soon after. Eventually, the ''Red Horse'' was forced to destroy the prison ship with a [[Shiva-class nuclear missile]] in order to contain the Flood.<ref>'''Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe''', "The Mona Lisa", ''page 322-327''</ref> | Foucault was ordered by Rebecca to send a squad of 18 [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] led by [[Sergeant]] [[Zhao Heng Lopez]] to the ''Mona Lisa'' to investigate.
