Some time later in 2558, events on five [[human colonies]] resulted in mass destruction caused by [[Guardian|unknown objects]]. The situation was properly secured by the UNSC on four of the colonies, but on the fifth, the site was secured by the [[New Colonial Alliance]]. To prevent the Insurrectionist faction from securing the deadly object, ONI operative Commander [[Maya Sankar]] was tasked with infiltrating the faction to aid ONI in dealing with the rebels. In addition, Black-Box was "partnered" with Sankar to help her on her mission and keep ONI's interests a priority, over her objections. As with the Sanghelios mission, Black-Box was housed in a data-chip disguised as a lapel pin.<ref>'''[[Hunt the Truth]]''', ''Season 2 - Episode 01: ''CUBE B-349''</ref> | Some time later in 2558, events on five [[human colonies]] resulted in mass destruction caused by [[Guardian|unknown objects]].

They were led to the NCA base camp and encountered Maya's former protege [[Bostwick]] and ex-[[Spartan-IV]] [[Ilsa Zane]], the new leader of the faction. Zane executed Ari for betraying them to ONI, but a UNSC airstrike and Bostwick's intervention prevented her from killing Maya as well. After fleeing the planet with the data and Bostwick, BB implored Maya to head for an ONI base with the intel. Sankar refused, believing that ONI would suppress the information and let additional colonies fall so they could study the results. | ||

Possessing a male personality, Black-Box is noted as being incredibly egotistical and fully comfortable with being an entity of pure intellect, and has an innate sense of superiority over not only his human creators, but also other AIs. Due to this, Black-Box chooses not to represent himself with a humanoid [[avatar]], as the majority of "smart" AIs do, and instead appears as a featureless box bathed in blue light; at times, it is mentioned that he uses the brightest side of the cube to indicate which way his avatar is facing. He has been described as deeply narcissistic, and has been noted to speak in a supercilious manner.<ref name="sparkast"/> He has also been noted as having a sarcastic sense of humor. Additionally, he tries not to get too invested in humans, such as he believes [[Cortana]] did.<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''page 148''</ref> | Possessing a male personality, Black-Box is noted as being incredibly egotistical and fully comfortable with being an entity of pure intellect, and has an innate sense of superiority over not only his human creators, but also other AIs.
