In [[2560#May|May 2560]] he had a chance encounter with [[Spartan-II]] [[John-117]] after being stranded in the [[dropship]] for 6 months around the shattered remains of the [[Halo Array|Halo]] [[Installation 07|ring]].<ref name="DH">''[[Discover Hope]]''</ref> He brought the Master Chief aboard the craft shortly before it came under attack. The two became inseparable as they both needed each other, albeit for different reasons.
