[[Dr. Catherine Elizabeth Halsey]], [[Kelly-087]] and [[AI]] [[Jerrod]] arrived aboard ''[[Beatrice]]''. Attacking Sentinels forced the ship to crash land on the planet, although all three passengers survived to link up with Kurt-051's group.

While the UNSC and Covenant [[Fleet]]s traded space-borne crossfire whilst in orbit, in the Forerunner city [[SPARTAN-051|Kurt-051]]'s group of survivors was engaged by Covenant troops led personally by Voro Nar 'Mantakree. The Spartans (both II's and III's) held off the enemy advance while Halsey, aided by Kelly-087 and Mendez, configured Onyx's teleportation grid, their means of escape. [[Dante-G188]] was killed rescuing Fred-104 from plasma and Needler fire. Once the teleportation grid was functioning, the humans moved to the [[Sentinel Production Facility]] near the north pole in the aim of destroying it. At the advice of AI [[Endless Summer]], this would save Battlegroup Stalingrad. Halsey identified three key structures in the facility and they were destroyed by tricking Sentinels into firing on them. Moving on, Kurt-051's group came upon [[Team Katana]] trapped in some sort of Slipspace stasis pods. Unable to free the prisoners, the [[human]]s were forced to bring the sarcophagi with them as they traveled to the [[Core Room Antechamber]] where they prepared a stand against pursuing Covenant troops. | While the UNSC and Covenant [[Fleet]]s traded space-borne crossfire whilst in orbit, in the Forerunner city [[SPARTAN-051|Kurt-051]]'s group of survivors was engaged by Covenant troops led personally by Voro Nar 'Mantakree.

While 200 [[Grunt]]s attacked Kurt-051 and his forces atop the stepped structure, the remainder of the attackers setup stationary shield generators and placed three groups of thirty Elites and one [[Hunter]] pair behind each shield. From this jump-off point, the Elites formed a wall using shields taken from [[Jackal]]s and began to advance through grenade and sniper fire.

From this jump-off point, the Elites formed a wall using shields taken from [[Jackal]]s and began to advance through grenade and sniper fire. When the Covenant reached the first step, redeployed [[Lotus Anti Tank Mine|Lotus mines]] killed several Elites and dazed Hunters. One Hunter was dispatched by Kurt-051 before they could recover. Kelly-087 engaged and killed three [[Energy Sword|sword]]-wielding Elites and was then flanked by two more Hunters but was saved by [[Holly-G003]], who was killed in the effort. | ||
The Spartans piled onto the two Hunters. Kurt-051 was wounded. Will-043 killed one Hunter, that had been shot by Linda-058, in hand-to-hand combat but was in turn shot and killed by the second. The last Hunter was killed by Fred-104 with a [[M19 SSM Rocket Launcher|Jackhammer]] missile. | The Spartans piled onto the two Hunters. Kurt-051 was wounded.
