En route to collect Mickey, Dare reveals that he had been held at the same [[Spartan-IV_training_station|SPARTAN-IV training facility]] that Buck, Romeo, and Mickey had trained at, located in a remote star system orbiting a dwarf planet. Dare finds that a report from the station’s [[AI]], [[Leonidas]], labels supervisor [[Jun-A266]], the primary recruiter of the [[SPARTAN-IV]] program, current supervisor of the station, and Buck's recruiter, as "indisposed," which leads the crew to believe the AI had turned to Cortana's side. Posing as the only one onboard the Condor, Buck contacts Leonidas as they near the station, who tells him to report to [[Musa]], the de facto supervisor of the SPARTAN-IV program, that "everything here is fine." Buck insists to board, and is then aided by two technicians, who ask to refuel and clean his ship, to which he denies in an effort to prevent Leonidas from locating his crew through the station's crewmates. Walking down the corridors while reminiscing his time training at the facility, Buck encounters a walking [[hologram|holographic]] projection of Leonidas. The AI reiterates that Jun is asleep, only to be woken in an emergency, to which Buck is highly suspicious, but Leonidas still cheerfully provides Buck with Mickey's location in the dorms-turned-brig of the station. Buck arrives at the brig to find Mickey, serving his life sentence, but eventually leaves after a heated moral argument, despite the prisoner agreeing to join him.

The team narrows down their options to disconnecting [[Leonidas]]’ [[data chip]] from the [[Spartan-IV_training_station|station]] entirely, determining the only location capable of housing the [[AI]] to be [[Jun]]’s office. As soon as [[Buck]] nears the office, he loses comms with [[Alpha-Nine]] and Leonidas’ [[hologram|avatar]] pops in front of him, demanding that he leave. When Buck refuses, he declares the [[wikipedia:AWOL|AWOL]] code [[STOLEN GAUNTLET]] over the intercom, ordering everyone to neutralize the Buck on sight. Three nearby Spartans move in to arrest him, though willing to hear him out and summon Jun, but Leonidas pops the room’s [[airlock]], threatening to depressurize the entire station if Buck continues to resist. Just before he does, however, [[Dare]] cuts power to the station, but inadvertently deactivates the force fields that housed the prisoners. Buck unplugs Leonidas' data chip, sprints to the brig, and much to his surprise, finds [[Mickey]] still there, holding a pistol to a security guard’s head, with another unconscious on the floor. Mickey then proceeds to lock the security guard in the brig before agreeing to accompany Alpha-Nine. The two make their way to the Condor, with Mickey acting as an escorted prisoner, but halfway, a Spartan recognizes Buck and opens fire.
