''Wellsley is cut off as an explosion rocks the base. The camera then cuts to a sweeping shot of the base, as [[Type-25 Spirit]]s are shown beginning to land around the base, while the defending troops fire back. A Falcon takes off from the base's landing pad as [[Type-26 Banshee|Banshees]] begin to conduct airstrikes.''

''The marines and Raven are set upon by a squad of Grunts, who are reinforced by several Major Sangheili. A [[Type-52 Phantom|Phantom]] dropship then enters the mix. The players pick up an [[M41 SPNKR]] leaning against a [[M72 Mobile Barrier|barrier]], which they use to fire upon the craft and destroy it. Raven then turn around to see several [[Type-32 Ghost|Ghosts]] entering the base, which they use the rocket launchers against. Raven then switch back to their plasma rifles to engage several Jackals and drones. As the squad nears the Shades, they are engaged by some more Elites Grunts and Jackals. The squad is joined by two marines.''

''A Spirit dropship appears above the players, opening its doors to reveal a pair of [[Mgalekgolo|Hunters]]. The two swat away the Marines and engage Fireteam Raven, but are soon killed. The squad then mount the defensive [[Type-26 Shade]] turrets, and begin firing upon the encroaching Banshees and Phantoms, supported by Pelicans. Several waves of Covenant aircraft are repelled before a new threat emerges; a {{Pattern|Kmiro'sish|Lich}}, the ''[[Upright Chalice]]'', descends from above and levels over the base. The players are able to fire inside the Lich and its infantry payload within before the craft departs. The Lich then turns around to reveal the other side of the troop bay and more infantry, this time led by a [[Sangheili Zealot]]. The Lich flies away from the battle, leaving only one final wave of Banshees before the squad exits the turrets.''
