====Initial attack====
On [[2552#October|October 31, 2552]], Holly and the rest of Team Saber were competing for top honors along with two other Gamma Company fireteams. During the 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 [[Directed energy weapon|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>

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. Ash was visibly distraught by her death.<ref>'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 360-362''</ref> After sucessfully escaping into the Shield World, the surviving Spartans would hold a funeral and memorial service for their fallen companions.
