Moments before the ODSTs' drop, Dare took command of the squad led by Gunnery Sergeant Edward Buck, causing some confusion among the squad members, and told him that infiltrating the ''Solemn Penance'' was not their mission anymore.<refname="PtD"/> During the drop, she ordered the squad to change their [[Single Occupant Exoatmospheric Insertion Vehicle|drop pods]]' course at the last moment so they could perform her mission, just as the ship entered [[Slipstream space|slipspace]], damaging the city and releasing a large [[Electromagnetic pulse|EMP]] wave which disabled the pods' electronic systems and scattered them throughout the city. Dare's pod landed in [[Tayari Plaza]]. However, she was unable to leave her pod due to the damage it had sustained during the drop. She then radioed Buck for help. Before Buck arrived to her location, Dare somehow got out of the pod before a Covenant [[Type-52 Troop Carrier|Phantom]] arrived. When he arrived at the pod, he found it to be empty; he presumed her dead when he saw her helmet in the grasp of an [[Huragok]] Engineer. Thinking the creature would kill Buck, [[Romeo]] killed it and in the resulting explosion her helmet was launched through a window and into the viewscreen where [[the Rookie]] would later find it lodged.<ref>'''Halo 3: ODST''', campaign level ''[[Tayari Plaza (level)|Tayari Plaza]]''</ref> | Moments before the ODSTs' drop, Dare took command of the squad led by Gunnery Sergeant Edward Buck, causing some confusion among the squad members, and told him that infiltrating the ''Solemn Penance'' was not their mission anymore.<refname="PtD"/> During the drop, she ordered the squad to change their [[Single Occupant Exoatmospheric Insertion Vehicle|drop pods]]' course at the last moment so they could perform her mission, just as the ship entered [[Slipstream space|slipspace]], damaging the city and releasing a large [[Electromagnetic pulse|EMP]] wave which disabled the pods' electronic systems and scattered them throughout the city.

Six hours after the drop, Dare had made her way to sub-level 9 of the [[Superintendent]]'s [[New Mombasa Data Center|data center]]. Following her trail was the Rookie; Dare was surprised to see him as he arrived. With him, she made her way to the core, explaining to the Rookie that their original mission was to retrieve crucial information that the Superintendent had on [[Portal|a seismic anomaly]] prior to the Covenant invasion. The mission, however, would have been suicide to go alone, as Dare needed a team behind her. As there were only two ODSTs battling through Covenant forces, Dare was impressed with the Rookie, amazed he survived alone in the city.<ref name="hive">'''Halo 3: ODST''', campaign level ''[[Data Hive]]''</ref> | Six hours after the drop, Dare had made her way to sub-level 9 of the [[Superintendent]]'s [[New Mombasa Data Center|data center]].
