During a training exercise, Team Saber was attacked by what appeared to be artillery fire. After retreating behind the [[Zone 67]] fence, they ran into [[Onyx Sentinel]]s, their previous assailants. After a sporadic firefight, Saber learned about the strange nature of these Forerunner constructs and retreated to the jungle to lay low for a time. | During a training exercise, Team Saber was attacked by what appeared to be artillery fire.

After a stealth entry, the SPARTANs rescued the members of Team Katana, who had been interred within Forerunner [[Slipspace Field Pod]]s, placing them in suspended animation. They managed to escape detection by the Sentinels, but were attacked by a massive [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] invasion fleet and forced to fall back to the [[Shield World]]'s [[Core Room Antechamber|entry room]]. A drawn-out battle ensued, and the super-soldiers killed many Covenant troops, despite losing three of their own. Kurt ordered the surviving SPARTANs through the entry and sacrificed himself for their safety by destroying the Covenant army that attempted to gain entrance to the [[Micro Dyson Sphere]], including the Covenant force's commander, [[Voro Nar 'Mantakree]], by detonating two [[FENRIS Nuclear Warhead|FENRIS nuclear warheads]]. Team Saber's last known location is inside the Micro Dyson Sphere that is contained in a [[Slipstream Space|Slipspace]] rift inside Onyx. | ||
