Line 38: Line 38:
The Sangheili boards a [[Type-32 Ghost|ghost]] and takes off. Ray finds another ghost and chases him through the base. Eventually they run through a cavern and Ray fires at the ghost eventually disabling it outside the base. Ray immediately corners the Sangheili and orders him to hand over the canister holding the bioweapon. He replies stating that the bioweapon isn't for him. Seconds later, a [[Sahara-class heavy prowler|prowler]] lands nearby and several [[ONI]] agents run over to their position. One of the agents tell Ray to stand down, handing her a report from [[Admiral]] [[Serin Osman]] ordering them to detain the Sangheili and seize the bioweapon. The agents then lead the unrestrained Sangheili to the prowler.

After the mission, Ray resides by a recovering Thorne. Discussing the aftermath, Lasky tells Palmer not to be angry at Ray for her actions due to the circumstances. He also tells Palmer that his debriefing with Osman went well despite the covert operation turning into a battle. Palmer asks if any details were undisclosed but Lasky explains he was told to drop the subject. He then tells her that he got a look at a memo sent by an ONI analyst to [[HIGHCOM]] concerning a growing number of kig-yar pirate setting up bases at trade routes and possible outcome for ignoring the threat. Palmer downplays the threat due to her belief that there are more important issues to worry about. Lasky deduces that ONI set up the bioweapons incident, as a means to lure the Spartans to the planet, and then force them to destroy the pirate base.  Lasky wonders which was worse: that ONI played them or that they fell for the staged act. Lasky then ask Palmer to promise to not let him forget about the mission.
