Later Crimson was sent in to "[[the Gate]]," a location that the Marines had failed to take from Jul 'Mdama's Covenant. After fighting through [[Kig-Yar]] and [[Unggoy]] they faced Promethean resistance. The incoming Prometheans were dispatched by Crimson, and Miller tasked the team with disabling pylons controlling Forerunner turrets. Dalton came in and evacuated Crimson after they faced more translocating Knights and Crawlers. They were sent to respond to a science team's distress call.<ref>''Spartan Ops'', [[Artifact (Spartan Ops)/Clean Up|S102 Clean Up]]</ref> The aforementioned science team hid behind a forcefield when 'Mdama's Covenant attacked, and were the science team assigned to the Cauldron. Crimson destroyed Covenant communications arrays, and found beacons and IFF tags from the science team. Dr. [[Morgan Rivera]] was brought on comms who gave Crimson her location. Crimson fought through 'Mdama's Covenant and rescued her and her team.<ref>''Spartan Ops'', [[Artifact (Spartan Ops)/For Science|S102 For Science]]</ref>

Next Crimson was sent in to evacuate Marine squad Hacksaw who was attacked by Covenant at the Fortress. They were dropped in and beat back waves of Covenant forces to rescue the Marines. The group moved to the top of the Fortress to be evacuated by Dalton, but [[Type-44 Phantom|Phantoms]] arrived carrying [[Sangheili Warrior]]s and [[Sangheili Zealot]]s. Crimson destroyed the Phantoms and Sangheili and were evacuated.<ref>''Spartan Ops'', [[Artifact (Spartan Ops)/Hacksaw|S102 Hacksaw]]</ref> En route to "the Refuge," Crimson was shot down in "Sniper Alley" by nearby anti-air turrets and were thought to have died. Miller learned that Fireteam Crimson was still alive and they were sent to take out the turrets. Covenant forces arrived supplanted by [[Heavy orbital insertion pod]]s, but Crimson eliminated 'Mdama's Covenant forces and the turrets and continued with their mission.<ref>''Spartan Ops'', [[Artifact (Spartan Ops)/Pelican Down|S102 Pelican Down]]</ref> Reaching "the Refuge," Crimson saw no sign of Gagarin team, the science team based there. They learned Gagarin activated Forerunner artifacts, and Crimson deactivated them under resistance from Promethean forces. They got on a Pelican and left, not having found Gagarin team.<ref>''Spartan Ops'', [[Artifact (Spartan Ops)/Gagarin|S102 Gagarin]]</ref>

Soon after, Crimson was then sent to disable a Covenant communications array at the site Jul 'Mama's Covenant had previously had anti-air turrets. The array had led to the death of [[Fireteam Castle]], and Crimson rushed the location and tapped into the array before disabling it.<ref>''Spartan Ops'', [[Didact's Hand/Hairy Call|S104 Hairy Call]]</ref> ''UNSC Infinity'' found data possibly leading to Jul 'Mdama's location.

Activating Forerunner technology, a portal opened and Crimson stepped through.<ref>''Spartan Ops'', [[Didact's Hand/Rally Point|S104 Rally Point]]</ref> They emerged in "the [[Fortress (location)|Fortress]]" and re-established communications primarily with the AI [[Roland]]. After fighting off enemy forces Crimson steped through another portal, chasing 'Mdama.<ref>''Spartan Ops'', [[Didact's Hand/Random Transport|S104 Random Transport]]</ref> Crimson emerged in the middle of Covenant enemies at "[[the Cauldron]]", and fought through them to reach 'Mdama. ''Infinity'' bombed 'Mdama's location causing him to drop the [[Didact's Gift]], which was recovered by the UNSC and subsequently brought to Galileo Base.<ref>''Spartan Ops'', [[Didact's Hand/The Chase|S104 The Chase]]</ref> However, 'Mdama's Covenant [[Battle of Galileo Base|attacked]] Galileo Base with the intent of recovering the gift. Crimson beat them back and activated the base's defense systems, holding back 'Mdama's Covenant but Prometheans translocated in the base. Crimson fought them off and left [[Fireteam Majestic]] to take the Didact's Gift to ''Infinity''.<ref>''Spartan Ops'', [[Didact's Hand/The Didact's Gift|S104 The Didact's Gift]]</ref>

On Crimson's next deployment, they were sent to "[[the Gate]]" to investigate Dr. [[Leslie Boyd]]'s power fluctuations back at "[[the Refuge (Requiem location)|the Refuge]]" with only Roland and Miller to help them. They were being caused by translocating Prometheans, and they were at risk of destroying Boyd's scientific instruments. They defended them from raids of Prometheans until Boyd could finish his work and block their translocations. Boyd opened a portal for Crimson, now able to control the portal's locations.<ref>''Spartan Ops'', [[Memento Mori/Spartan Miller|S105 Spartan Miller]]</ref> At "the Refuge," the science base came [[Battle at The Refuge|under attack]] by Prometheans, which were driven off by Crimson.<ref>''Spartan Ops'', [[Memento Mori/Nothing Can Go Wrong|S105 Nothing Can Go Wrong]]</ref> A {{Pattern|Zanar|light cruiser}} began sending a Covenant army down to "the Refuge," and Crimson defended the location while [[Fireteam Shadow]] took out the cruiser. Successfully defending Dr. Boyd, Crimson team left on a Pelican to their next objective.<ref>''Spartan Ops'', [[Memento Mori/Everything Has Gone Wrong|S105 Everything Has Gone Wrong]]</ref> Crimson arrived at [[Magma Base]] to defend power generators from Covenant forces. After doing so, Roland found [[Gabriel Thorne]]'s IFF tag in the area, and found it along with signs of a struggle.<ref>''Spartan Ops'', [[Memento Mori/The Cauldron Base|S105 The Cauldron Base]]</ref> Crimson was dropped off in the "[[Quarry]]" to try and find Thorne. Despite defeating a large amount of Covenant, Thorne was not found. A Pelican arrived for evac but was destroyed by Jul 'Mdama's Covenant. [[Type-44 Phantom|Phantoms]] and [[Type-26 Banshee|Banshees]] then converged on Crimson's position, along with a single light cruiser.<ref>''Spartan Ops'', [[Memento Mori/Spartan Thorne|S105 Spartan Thorne]]</ref>
