Descending into a pit in the cavern's floor, Fred discovered Intrepid Eye's damaged [[Covert Support Base 4276]]. When Fred approached the facility's corrupted [[vacuum energy]] extractor, he was caught inside a space-time anomaly; while over two hours had elapsed on the outside, Fred had only felt the passing of ten minutes. Wary of exploring the mysterious facility alone, he left to regroup with the rest of his team to return to the surface and report to Nelson, along with the recently discovered [[Lifeworker]] Huragok [[Roams Alone]].<ref name="ll141">'''Halo: Last Light''', ''pages 141-145''</ref> While the group continued towards Gao's surface, the battalion's encampments at the [[Montero Vitality Center]] and at the village of [[Wendosa]] were attacked by [[insurrectionist]]s and the [[Keepers of the One Freedom]], who sought to take Gao's ancilla for themselves. Meanwhile, the Gamma Company Spartan-IIIs had run out of their "Smoothers", drugs that controlled their more unpredictable [[Project CHRYSANTHEMUM|augmentations]].

Once the team regrouped, they fought their way past Keeper forces as they attempted to return to the surface. Seeking to be caught in order to gain access to UNSC communications, Intrepid Eye revealed herself to Fred in her [[inspection drone]] shell and allowed him to capture her with a [[scramble grenade]]. Finally returning to the surface at Wendosa, Fred created a plan to attack the Keepers and aid the battalion and the rest of Blue Team under attack at the village.<ref name="ll213">'''Halo: Last Light''', ''pages 213-226''</ref> In the ensuing firefight, Intrepid Eye convinced Roams Alone to free her and she escaped, jamming all communications on the planet. Fred pursued the ancilla and recaptured her, only to find Mark—now paranoid and aggressive without his Smoothers—holding a knife to [[Nguyen|a Marine sergeant]]. After coaxing Mark to release the Marine, the sergeant informed Fred that he was to return to the Vitality Center with the ancilla. Reluctantly boarding a [[UH-144 Falcon|Falcon]], Fred departed for the center, but the aircraft was shot down by Keeper forces.<ref name="ll243">'''Halo: Last Light''', ''pages 243-261''</ref> While Keeper forces attacked the crash-site to retrieve Intrepid Eye, Fred's armor's mechanical joints locked up, preventing him from moving.
