Breath of Annihilation: Difference between revisions

While the carrier's crew rushed to repair their ship, the UNSC team aboard ''Breath of Annihilation'' lost their [[Telemetry probe|way of communication]] with ONI when the slipspace rupture formed. With their Phantom damaged, they resolved to travel to a nearby [[hangar bay]] to steal another Phantom. Creating a smoke screen, 'Sevi exited his [[dropship]] and began eliminating the Covenant soldiers in the hangar. He traveled to a nearby hangar and hijacked a Phantom, while the Spartans and Glassman followed. While moving to 'Sevi's position, the humans encountered a group of oncoming Covenant soldiers. After a quick firefight, the humans made their way to the hangar, where a [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraith]] prepared to fire upon them. However, 'Sevi destroyed the tank with the Phantom. The team escaped the damaged carrier aboard the dropship and embarked for ''Song of Retribution''. Rumors of a Spartan attack in ''Breath of Annihilation'' spread to the carrier's shipmaster, and eventually reached ''Retribution''. While the shipmaster sent out search teams to check for Spartans, 'Mdama decided that only his carrier would enter the slipspace portal to the Absolute Record while ''Breath of Annihilation'' remained behind with the rest of the fleet to make emergency repairs at a nearby [[moon]]. Still needing to make contact with ONI, 'Sevi and Thorne traveled back to ''Annihilation'' in their Phantom. Before entering the portal, ''Retribution'' transferred several of its prisoners to ''Annihilation'', including Sali 'Nyon.{{Ref/Reuse|he20}}  

Setting down in the water of a swamp on the moon, ''Annihilation'' started undergoing repairs. Its crew began arguing whether there was Spartans aboard the ship or not; some claimed they had seen the Spartans, while others went by the word of 'Mdama: there was no Spartans and their crewmembers were killed by accidental friendly fire when the ship was damaged. Overhearing the argument, 'Sevi decided to use it to his advantage. To incite chaos aboard the carrier, 'Sevi had Thorne attack the arguing Sangheili before going back into hiding again.<ref name="HE21">'''Halo: Escalation''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 21|Issue #21]]''</ref> After Thorne's actions, a mutiny was carried out by those who believe that the Didact's Hand lied to them about the presence of Spartans aboard the ship.<ref>''Halo: Escalation'', '''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 22|Issue #22]]'''</ref>
