After using improvised explosives to bring a canyon's walls down on a large number of Covenant and then evading the survivors, they formulated a plan to steal a Covenant [[Type-52 Troop Carrier|Phantom]]. First, they killed a Sangheili and an Unggoy, using the latter's body to fool the other Unggoy into thinking that Miles was being taken captive, before killing them all. They then took control of the Phantom, though what Miles believed to be lift-off thrusters were actually weapons, which killed a number of Covenant returning to the ship. As they took off, one Sangheili managed to damage the Phantom with his [[Fuel Rod Gun]], causing the Phantom to crash to the ground. They abandon ship, as the Phantom crashed into a company of Sangheili. Miles crashed through a building's skylight, and found the missing colonists inside, held prisoner by several Unggoy. | After using improvised explosives to bring a canyon's walls down on a large number of Covenant and then evading the survivors, they formulated a plan to steal a Covenant [[Type-52 Troop Carrier|Phantom]].

After neutralizing the guards, Miles and Romeo then learned from the colonists that the Covenant were forcing them to dig down below, setting off a number of booby traps in the entrance to [[Ariel Forerunner complex|an alien complex]]. Thus the two ODSTs went down below to free the other enslaved colonists. They first scared two Unggoy with inactive bombs, causing them run right into a laser trap, before Miles tackled the Sangheili into them as well. He and Romeo then made their way past the lasers, before finding what the Covenant was looking for on Ariel: an [[Forerunner|alien]] [[Artificial Intelligence|construct]] called [[the Knowing]]. Though Miles believed that the AI would be beneficial to the UNSC, per ONI [[Xeno orders|standing orders]], Romeo preferred that they destroy it to prevent the Covenant from getting their hands on the data. Romeo asked Knowing to activate its self-destruct and direct them out of the complex.

Miles carried him and managed to escape the blast. When they got back to the surface, they were reunited with their squad, who had seen the Covenant fleeing the planet because of Knowing's destruction. | ||
Later, Miles visited Romeo in the infirmary. Romeo stated that he filed for a transfer to be with Miles, who revealed that he had withdrawn his transfer request. They both played Rock, Paper, Scissors to decide who would go. | Later, Miles visited Romeo in the infirmary.
