While [[Veta Lopis]] and her [[Ferret|Ferret Team]] were on board [[Neos Atlantis]], Mark-G313 dodged a knife strike from the corner of his eye and proceeded to pick up [[Spencer Hume]] - a 309 lbs(140 kg) man - and use him as a human shield to block knife strikes from [[Ota Gallo]]. When Hume began to resist, Mark accidentally killed him by dealing a soft punch to the his chest. Later on, Mark moved so quickly that a [[Dark Moon Enterprises]] agent shot himself in the feet when Mark "abruptly" forced his rifle downwards. Additionally, [[Ash-G099]] killed a Dark Moon Enterprises operative with three "rabbit" punches to the man's skull.<ref>'''Halo: Fractures''', ''A Necessary Truth''</ref>


The Spartan-IIIs' augmentations allow them to remain conscious and even function effectively while exposed to the vacuum of space for up to a minute. However, the Spartans still suffer from the negative effects of exposure to space and require medical treatment directly after to recover.<ref>'''[[Halo: Fractures]]''', "[[Lessons Learned]]", ''page 5''</ref> While on board a spacecraft, [[Kevin-A282]] walked through the forces of rapid decompression while carrying Captain [[Darren Leone]] to safety. Later on, Kevin shot the rifle out of the hands of [[Ryan Larsson]] from a quarter mile away and successfully jogged to his location before Ryan could recover.<ref>'''Halo: Fractures''', ''Breaking Strain''</ref>
