When Holly was around 5 or 7 years of age, she was orphaned during a Covenant attack on her home colony. Around 2546, she was conscripted into the SPARTAN-III program developed by [[Colonel]] [[James Ackerson]], along with other orphans who had volunteered to become Spartans. She and the other SPARTAN-III candidates were trained on the planet Onyx by [[Senior Chief Petty Officer]] [[Franklin Mendez|Mendez]], survivors of [[SPARTAN-III Beta Company|Beta Company]] [[Lucy-B091]] and [[Tom-B292]], and SPARTAN-II [[Lieutenant Commander]] [[Kurt | When Holly was around 5 or 7 years of age, she was orphaned during a Covenant attack on her home colony.

Holly was assigned to [[Team Saber]], under the command of fellow SPARTAN-III [[Ash-G099]]. During a top honors training exercise, Team Saber moved dangerously close to [[Zone 67]] to avoid the other teams. The team spied what they assumed at the time to be a new type of Covenant aircraft or drone, noting that it had [[Energy shielding|energy shields]] and seemed to use [[anti-gravity technology]]. Unknown to them, it was in fact one of a group of [[Forerunner]] [[Onyx Sentinel|Sentinel]], which had awoken in response to a pulse from the destroyed [[Installation 04]]. Team Saber decided to investigate and engaged the Sentinels, but upon being faced with the machines' deadly energy weaponry, Holly and the rest of the team were forced to split up and retreat.<ref>'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 117-120''</ref> Holly became cornered by a Sentinel at the edge of a cliff, but was rescued when Ash hurled a rock at the Sentinel, distracting it. The Sentinel then chased Ash into a crevasse, after which Holly and the rest of Team Saber dropped boulders on the Sentinel and destroyed it.<ref>'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 130-134''</ref> | Holly was assigned to [[Team Saber]], under the command of fellow SPARTAN-III [[Ash-G099]].

The humans then fell back into Onyx's [[core room antechamber]] and made a stand at the entrance to the [[ONI Research Facility Trevelyan|shield world]]. During the battle, a pair of Mgalekgolo moved to fire upon Kelly-087. Holly took the blasts from both Hunters' [[assault cannon]]s, saving the older Spartan but at the cost of her own life. She was vaporized by the blast, leaving only two footprints where she had stood.<ref>'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 360-362''</ref> | The humans then fell back into Onyx's [[core room antechamber]] and made a stand at the entrance to the [[ONI Research Facility Trevelyan|shield world]].

Holly was small in stature, even by non-SPARTAN standards. Kurt-051 once remarked that she reminded him of [[Kelly-087]] when she was younger. Holly was remarkably agile, and was excellent at reconnaissance roles. She had short cropped hair buzz-cut into a series of bear-claw scratch patterns. For that some of the other teams teased her, and she was demoted twice for fighting.<ref>'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 115''</ref> | |||
