Majestic and [[Fireteam Crimson]] were sent north of the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]]'s operational area to down [[Forerunner]] power generators. As they had similar objectives, Palmer turned the operation into a challenge between Majestic and Crimson. Despite having their long-range communications downed, the teams restored them and continued with the challenge. Though pulling ahead, Majestic was beat by Crimson, despite Crimson actually facing firmer resistance than Fireteam Majestic.<ref>'''Spartan Ops''', ''Episode 1, Chapter 3: "The Challenge"''</ref>

Later on Requiem's surface, Fireteam Majestic had to face a swarm of [[Promethean Crawlers]], [[Slipspace translocation|translocating]] on the planets surface. Soon [[Promethean Knights]] began to attack, injuring Majestic member [[Anthony Madsen]]. Enraged, Hoya broke cover to take on the Knight, and got injured. He was evacuated and brought in a stretcher back aboard the ''UNSC Infinity'' where he was met by Palmer. Hoya informed her that he would return to the field.<ref>'''Spartan Ops''', [[S1/Artifact|S1E2 ''Artifact'']]</ref>

During the ground battle on [[Aktis IV]], Hoya become separated from the rest of Fireteam Majestic after Jul's forces attacked them. He was left to fend off the Covenant in a jungle, unknowingly facing the rebel [[Sali 'Nyon]]'s forces. He was attacked by a Zealot but was inadvertently saved by one of the [[Promethean Knight]]s loyal to 'Mdama. Hoya fell off a cliff and spotted a Phantom with [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Halsey]] inside. Hoya then contacted Ray about his discovery. His transmission reached the other Spartans despite his prior attempts at communication failing to do so, and led to Commander Palmer taking Ray and Thorne to the jungle in order to hunt down Halsey.<ref>'''Halo: Escalation''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 15|Issue #15]]''</ref> After the battle, Hoya supposedly returned to ''Infinity'' with the other Spartans.<ref>'''Halo: Escalation''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 16|Issue #16]]''</ref>
After ''Infinity'' was trapped near the uncharted world of [[Aktis IV]] on July 19, 2558, Hoya was deployed to the planet's surface alongside the rest of Majestic, with Palmer once again assuming tactical command of the team. On a forested island the Spartans discovered and secured a Forerunner structure after defeating a group of [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant faction|Covenant forces]], and [[Henry Glassman|Dr. Glassman]] was brought in to investigate. Shortly afterward, Jul 'Mdama's Covenant launched a surprise assault against the Spartans and they became trapped in the structure.

==Personality and traits==
While generally jovial and laid-back among his Spartan compatriots, Hoya has a notably short temper and a tendency for brash and reckless actions during combat. This was demonstrated during the Requiem campaign when he singlehandedly charged a group of Prometheans after Madsen was injured. However, his brazen attitude has also gained Hoya some of his more noted accomplishments, something that was recognized in his recruitment into the SPARTAN-IV program.<ref name="VIS"/>
