The second chapter opens with the team's Condor in [[slipspace]] on its way to Alpha Shard. During the journey, the ONI agents bicker with the Sedrans while Locke reveals to Private Macer that Colonel Aiken was once a Spartan, showing her a [[data pad]] with Aiken's file which includes an image of him in [[MJOLNIR Mark IV]] armor. The crew arrive at their destination and land on the Halo's surface. Donning their [[Powered exoskeleton|powered]] [[Nightfall armor]], the ONI operators jump out of the Condor at a significant height while the Sedrans, with their less sophisticated combat suits, must rappel down. Macer pilots the dropship while most of the others move to secure an [[Bactrian-class freighter|Alerian tug]] seemingly used by the smugglers. The freighter is empty but is accompanied by a compartment used to store horses, as well as hoof prints leading away from the site. The ONI-Sedran Colonial Guard team move to the tracks' direction and come across two smugglers—[[Arris Le]] and [[Haisal Wari]]—mining the element in a cave. The smugglers attempt to escape but are quickly caught and [[Physical restraints|restrained]] by the ONI agents.

The group heads back to the Condor for extraction; however, while the dropship is setting down, a large number of [[Lekgolo]] appear and begin to swarm all over its airframe, plunging it out of control. Macer is thrown out of the Condor, which then flies off erratically and crashes in the distance. More of the worms appear in large gestalt formations, killing the horses and three of the Sedrans. Fast and agile, the Lekgolo begin to pursue the group who escape to a narrow crevice where Locke uses a special appliance to [[Holography|holographically]] camouflage their position from the aliens, but the aliens quickly notice the camouflage projector and devour it. Arris is able to reveal that the creatures can sense active technology ''and'' movement, prompting the group to shut down the electronics present in their equipment. The Lekgolo examine the group, who avoid detection by remaining completely still. In the end most of the worms leave and the group move out of the crevice. Locke grabs a sole remaining individual Lekgolo and squeezes, killing it.
