===Disobeying Orders and Death===

In [[2552#August|August 2552]], Eric was involved in an operation to infiltrate a [[Mount Haven|city]] on an unknown colony under siege by the Covenant, who were looking for [[Forerunner~~|alien~~]] artifacts.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/characters/rookie '''Halo Waypoint''', ''Rookie'']</ref> Simultaneously, several former CMA members were performing a clandestine operation to extract a massive supply of [[gold]] from a bank, gold that they would take for themselves and retire on. However, after infiltrating the bank, the ODST team discovered a class of school children and their teacher hiding in the underground vault, hoping to survive the planet's inevitable [[glassing]]. Having already loaded two Pelicans full of gold, the ODSTs knew there was no room for the children. To deceive the civilians, the troopers claimed that the gold would be used in the UNSC's war effort. Gage, who had seen too many people killed by the Covenant, was in strong favor of postponing the mission to save them. The other ODSTs, who claimed the children were as good as dead, disagreed, causing an argument. Felicia stepped in, wanting to call in more Pelicans, but the other ODSTs had already raised their weapons at one another. In an instant, Gage was shot in the abdomen, three other squad members were dead, and Felicia was fatally wounded. Gage rushed to her side, but she died in his arms.

Gage, in shock, went outside to find Eric, who informed him that the UNSC were falling back. Gage knocked Eric out with his sidearm and called for more Pelicans, claiming they were under heavy fire. He then flew Eric's Pelican to the pickup point and collected the artifacts the Covenant were looking for, as well as a [[Shiva-class nuclear missile|Shiva nuclear device]], then flew away from the city. Gage believed that the Covenant forces would follow him in pursuit of the relics. As he was being pursued by Covenant [[Type-26 Ground Support Aircraft|Banshees]], he was "accidentally" shot down by ODSTs who knew of his betrayal.
