On March 11, six days after DeMarco's death on [[Ealen IV]], ''Infinity'' arrived in the [[Artesia-702 system]] having received a distress signal from the damaged [[freighter]] ''[[Pilgrims Pride]]''. When the ship set an ambush inside ''Infinity''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s sub-vessel deployment bay, Fireteam Majestic was dispatched along with Fireteams [[Fireteam Colossus|Colossus]] and [[Fireteam Fenrir|Fenrir]] to repel the attack by preventing the freighter from self-destructing inside ''Infinity''. As team Majestic advanced to the freighter's core, they encountered and quickly disabled multiple [[M202 XP machine gun|automated defense turrets]]. As the enemy went into retreat, the freighter was tugged out back into space, where Grant ejected its core before it exploded. The Spartans survived the detonation and requested pickup.<ref>'''[[Halo: Escalation]]''', ''Issue #4''</ref> | |||
The station fired upon ''Infinity'' with its glassing cannon, disabling the UNSC flagship. Palmer immediately ordered Majestic to take control of the station. After evading oncoming missiles on their Booster Frames, the Spartans quickly boarded the station and secured the bridge, ordering everyone to freeze. Clayton | Following the attack, ''Infinity'' learned the freighter's assault crafts seemingly belonged to the long-lost {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} and tracked their origin to [[Oth Lodon]], a gas giant located deep in [[Jiralhanae]] space. With the ''Spirit''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s possible location found, [[Terrence Hood|Fleet Admiral Hood]] authorized a search and rescue mission. Equipped with [[OF92 Booster Frame]]s, Commander Palmer and Fireteam Majestic scouted the planet's system and came across not the ''Spirit of Fire'' but a [[Oth Lodon station|Covenant station]] controlled by [[New Colonial Alliance]] insurgents.<ref name="HE5">'''Halo: Escalation''', ''Issue #5''</ref> The station fired upon ''Infinity'' with its glassing cannon, disabling the UNSC flagship. Palmer immediately ordered Majestic to take control of the station. After evading oncoming missiles on their Booster Frames, the Spartans quickly boarded the station and secured the bridge, ordering everyone to freeze. The Spartans apprehended Captain [[Daniel Clayton]], a UNSC defector and the mastermind behind the [[Battle of Ealen IV|attack on Ealen IV]]. They then turned their attention to his associate [[Vata 'Gajat]], who was preparing to assault the crippled ''Infinity''. With the station's cannon back online, they fired on 'Gajat's flagship, destroying it and saving ''Infinity''.<ref name="HE6">'''Halo: Escalation''', ''Issue #6''</ref> | ||
