The first issue opens with the battle over [[Eridanus II]] during [[Operation: TREBUCHET]] in [[2513]] and the rebels' escape from the planet. The story then jumps four years forward, as the shuttle ''[[Han]]'' arrives in the [[Eridanus system]] with [[Catherine Elizabeth Halsey|Dr. Catherine Halsey]] and [[Lieutenant, Junior Grade|Lt.]] [[Jacob Keyes]] onboard. In [[Elysium City]] on [[Eridanus II]], they observe the boy who will later become [[John-117]]. A month later, the Spartan conscripts, having each been kidnapped and brought to Reach, are rounded up as Halsey tells them of their conscription to the SPARTAN-II project. Later, Halsey is seen drinking in her apartment, when she receives a message from [[Vice Admiral]] [[Ysionris Jeromi]], regarding the risks involved in the planned [[SPARTAN-II augmentation procedures]].

The second issue focuses on [[SPARTAN-II training|the training]] of the SPARTAN-IIs. John and the other recruits are woken up and are put through various exercises by [[Chief Petty Officer|CPO]] [[Franklin Mendez]]. Afterward, they are taught of the [[Battle of Thermopylae]] by [[Déjà]] in the [[Reach Naval Academy]]. A UNSC transport vessel is then shown exiting slipspace and soon being boarded by rebels near Eridanus II. The narrative then returns to the Spartan trainees, who are dropped into the [[Military Wilderness Training Preserve]] on Reach and are given a mission to find a way to the extraction point, each on their own. The Spartans team up, and with John on the lead, seize a dropship and use it to return to the base. After the incident, John is promoted squad leader by Chief Mendez.

The third issue begins with the funeral ceremony for those who died in the SPARTAN-II augmentations, aboard the [[UNSC carrier]] ''[[UNSC Atlas|Atlas]]''. Several months later, Halsey and Mendez arrive at one of Reach's abandoned [[titanium]] mines where the Spartans are training against UNSC personnel wearing [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor#Mark I Prototype Exoskeleton|Mark I Prototype Exoskeletons]]. Soon after, the Spartans are assigned to their first real mission: to capture Colonel Robert Watts, who is hiding somewhere in the Eridanus asteroid belt. After being briefed onboard the {{UNSCShip|Pioneer}}, the Spartans sneak aboard the [[freighter]] ''[[Laden]]'' and manage to get inside the rebel-controlled asteroid habitat, [[Eridanus Secundus]]. The issue ends as the Spartans assault Watts' private residence inside the base.
