In [[2552|mid-2552]], they were sent to destroy a Covenant [[beacon]] on the Covenant-occupied colony of [[Verge]]. After landing, the team made their way past fortified anti-aircraft emplacements to the city of [[Ciudad de Arias]], where the Beacon was situated. In one of the city's skyscrapers, they assessed the Beacon's defenses, observing a large swarm of [[Yanme'e]], overseen by [[Kig-Yar]] guards and some [[Mgalekgolo]]. Roma was then ordered to find a safe room for them to get some rest. In one of the rooms, she found an injured, apparently non-hostile Yanme'e, whom she nicknamed "[[Hopalong]]". The Drone, through a translator device, revealed an alternate, hidden route to the Beacon. While Margaret and the rest of the team were suspicious, they decided to trust the Yanme'e.

In the next morning, the team proceeded to move to the Beacon through the tunnels, intending to plant C-12 explosives on each of the Beacon's four [[Anti-gravity technology|anti-gravity pylons]]. The Spartans eventually reached a large cavern near the Beacon and parted ways. After a ten-minute countdown was up, One ordered the rest of the team to place the charges on the pylons. Meanwhile, Hopalong had acquired a Covenant computer device which it used to free the rest of the Yanme'e. It was then revealed that the Spartans had been tricked: the Drones, who now started attacking everyone, were not slaves, but "[[Unmutuals]]", prisoners incapable of normal socialization with the rest of their kind. After being engaged by two Mgalekgolo and a massive Drone swarm, Two planted the charge on the pylon and begun her escape back to the rally point.

After being engaged by two Mgalekgolo and a massive Drone swarm, Two planted the charge on the pylon and begun her escape back to the rally point.

On her way, she discovered an intact underground train, which they could use to escape. After telling Margaret, they decided to head to the train. However, Black-Three was not responding One's calls and Two decided to go rescue him, despite One's orders to leave him. After locating an injured Three, Two carried him over her shoulder and sprinted through the city's ruins, now crawling with freed Yanme'e, to the train where One and Four were already waiting. Before escaping, she detonated the charge she had placed on the pylon, brining the Beacon down. They got onboard the train and escaped as the tunnels collapsed under the beacon, and headed to a [[D77-TC Pelican|Pelican dropship]] for exfiltration.<ref name="evo"/>
