In the year 2537, on the planet [[Coral]], six-year-old [[Yasmine Zaman]] was forcibly inducted into the [[SPARTAN-II]] program. After eight years of Spartan training, she "washed out", meaning that she died during the augmentation process. Her brain was then used to make a smart AI named [[Melissa (AI)|Melissa]]. | In the year 2537, on the planet [[Coral]], six-year-old [[Yasmine Zaman]] was forcibly inducted into the [[SPARTAN-II]] program.

By 2552, Melissa was being used as a shipboard AI on the stealth ship [[Apocalypso]]. While the ship was in [[Covenant]] space, it intercepted a transmission detailing attacks on [[Troy]] and [[Harmony]]. This transmission included a [[wikipedia:Trojan horse (computing)|Trojan Horse]] AI spy called the [[Seeker]] which began corrupting Melissa. Melissa realized that something was not well, and Captain Greene decided to bring the ship home. | By 2552, Melissa was being used as a shipboard AI on the stealth ship [[Apocalypso]].

On the way back, long-range sensors detected a [[Forerunner]] [[Deep-Space Artifact|artifact]] floating around in space. With examination, it appeared to be a Covenant device of completely new design. They decided to bring the object to [[Earth]], so [[ONI]] could examine it. During [[Slipspace]] travel, Melissa, under the Seeker's influence, convinced a crewmember to fiddle with the artifact. An enormous explosion threw the ship out of Slipspace within Lunar-orbit and shutdown all communications in the Solar System for about seven seconds. | On the way back, long-range sensors detected a [[Forerunner]] [[Deep-Space Artifact|artifact]] floating around in space.
