The Spartans manage to kill a thousand Grunts and even destroy a Covenant air strike with [[Fougasse|fougasses]]. However, soon the situation in space deteriorates, and the Spartans are forced to retreat before the surface of Jericho VII is [[Glassing|glassed]].
 The story itself begins with [[Catherine Elizabeth Halsey|Dr. Catherine Halsey]] and Lieutenant Junior Grade [[Jacob Keyes]] on board the ''[[Han (Ship)|Han]]'', a [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] diplomatic shuttle. Their mission is to identify a potential candidate, [[John-117|John]], for Halsey's [[Spartan-II program]]. Dr. Halsey finds John in a school playground on [[Eridanus II]], where she tests if he is good enough to be a Spartan. Using a coin, she tests John's reflexes by flipping the coin in the air and having him identify the side it will land on. John catches it and correctly identifies the side: the eagle. During this time, Halsey gives John the coin, which is later taken from him.
