She was abducted from her home and replaced with a [[flash cloning|flash clone]], then sent to [[Reach]] where she was trained with the rest of the Spartans by [[Chief Petty Officer]] [[Franklin Mendez|Mendez]] and [[Déjà]]. She participated in numerous Spartan training missions to [[Emerald Cove]], [[Chiron Test Station]], [[Military Reservation 01478-B]], [[Military Wilderness Training Preserve]], and several others in the [[Highland Mountains]]. | ||

During the [[Fall of Reach]], she was designated Red-Twenty Three and assigned to [[Frederic-104]]'s team by [[John-117]]. Their mission was to defend the generators for the orbital [[MAC]] guns around Reach. As their [[D77-TC|Pelican]], [[Bravo 001]] was descending to the surface, it was shot down by [[Covenant]] AA plasma fire, and their pilot [[Mitchell]] was killed. The Spartans were forced to jump to the surface of the planet, gaining many injuries and a few deaths.<ref>'''Halo: First Strike''', ''page 11''</ref> | During the [[Fall of Reach]], she was designated Red-Twenty Three and assigned to [[Frederic-104]]'s team by [[John-117]].

Grace was then assigned to "Gamma" team, along with [[Anton-044]] and [[Li-008]]. They were sent to evacuate [[Vice Admiral]] [[Danforth Whitcomb|Whitcomb]]. They found him but were unable to rally with the rest of the Spartans due to Covenant activity. They then retreated to [[Camp Independence]], where they broadcast ''[[Oly Oly Oxen Free]]'' and went on hit and run missions for three weeks until they were found by John who recognized the Oly Oly Oxen Free tune.<ref>'''Halo: First Strike''', ''pages 111-112''</ref> They then proceeded to rescue "Alpha" and "Delta" teams from the [[Forerunner]] caves beneath [[CASTLE Base]].

The vessel then became trapped and ensnared when it tried to jump into [[Slipspace]]. The [[Forerunner crystal]] Dr. Halsey found warped Slipspace into an anomalous Slipspace bubble, and several [[Elite]] survivors of the ship sabotaged its main drive conduit. Grace was designated Blue-Six during this operation. Despite the rogue plasma and an ambush by the Elites, Grace managed to survive, as did [[John-117]], [[Frederic-104]], and [[William-043]]. However, [[Anton-044]], [[Li-008]], and [[Petty Officer Second Class]] [[Shiela Polaski|Polaski]] did not survive. | The vessel then became trapped and ensnared when it tried to jump into [[Slipstream space|Slipspace]].

She boarded the Covenant space station ''[[Unyielding Hierophant]]'' with the other Spartans. However, as they entered a temple, they were ambushed by [[Jiralhanae|Brutes]]. Three rounds from a [[Type-25 Grenade Launcher|Brute Shot]] hit Grace in the stomach, and blew her midsection apart, killing her. John was forced to activate the [[Fail-safe detonation|Fail-Safe Detonation]] on her [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor|MJOLNIR]] armor, and it self-destructed the armor's fusion pack. She took out four Elites and a dozen [[Unggoy|Grunts]] in her "Funeral Pyre". John thought Grace would have liked that.<ref>'''Halo: First Strike''', ''pages 315-317''</ref> | ||
