He served with the [[Colonial Military Administration]] before it was disbanded in the early 2520's, and like the majority of [[Human|humanity]], was fiercely opposed to the [[Covenant]]. After turning on his rogue Helljumper comrades when he succeeded in saving a class of civilian children, he was killed after manually detonating a nuclear device; the resulting blast killed both the criminal Marines and Covenant troops alike. | ||

On January 3, [[2524]], the hour he turned eighteen, Gage joined the [[Colonial Military Administration|Colonial Military]], wanting to do more with his life. After getting out of boot camp, Gage met [[Felicia Sanderson]] and [[Eric Santiago]] at the [[Utgard]] [[Utgard Spaceport|Spaceport]]. The three quickly became friends. They participated in [[Operation: TREBUCHET]] on [[Eridanus II]], doing small jobs, such as investigating possible [[Insurrectionist|rebel]] activity and riot control in [[Elysium City]]. After two months, they had made friends with [[Allison Stark]], a [[D77-TC Pelican|Pelican]] pilot for the CMA, who often flew them to parties on weekends. One particular weekend, after the four flew a [[AV-14 Hornet|Hornet]] to a night club, an Insurrectionist bomb inside of the club detonated. The blast killed Allison, sent Eric into a coma, and heavily injured Gage and Felicia, who were pulled out of the rubble by ODSTs. | On January 3, [[2524]], the hour he turned eighteen, Gage joined the [[Colonial Military Administration|Colonial Military]], wanting to do more with his life.

Felicia, who had nothing else to lose, decided to join along with him. However, after several weeks of hard training, they were informed of the [[Covenant]] threat and Harvest's destruction. Felicia fell into horrified shock and screamed at Gage for his disrespect toward the planet. | ||

Gage, in shock, went outside to find Eric, who informed him that the UNSC were falling back. Gage knocked him out with his gun and contacted the ''Chares'' 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. | Gage, in shock, went outside to find Eric, who informed him that the UNSC were falling back.

Gage crashed near the mountains outside the city, and was found mortally wounded by the [[The Rookie|Rookie]], who had arrived with Gage's reinforcements. Gage, who knew he was dying, told the Rookie his life story, right up until he crashed the Pelican. The Rookie, who had listened intently, promised to remember Gage and do whatever he could against the Covenant. Gage then told the Rookie that Covenant forces and the rogue ODSTs were on their way to the crash site, and warned the Rookie to get as far away as possible, as Gage was going to detonate the Shiva, killing them all. The Rookie ditched most of his gear and ran until he reached the other side of the mountain, at which point Gage detonated the nuclear weapon, killing himself, his renegade teammates, and thousands of Covenant troops.
