On [[2554|January 3, 2554]],<ref name="draco date"/> Alpha-Nine was deployed to [[Draco III]]'s capital city of [[New Albany]] as part of the UNSC's response to [[Draco III rebellion|an uprising]] instigated by the [[United Rebel Front]]. While the ODSTs were storming [[Draco III capitol building|Draco III's capitol building]], they were caught in an ambush in the legislature chambers. Buck ordered the Rookie to flank the rebels while the rest of the team provided cover. However, he was captured and beaten by the rebels, whose leader, [[Ingridson|Captain Ingridson]], subsequently held him hostage on a shielded presidential balcony.<ref>'''Halo: New Blood''', Chapter 4</ref> At the conclusion of a prolonged standoff, [[Michael Crespo]] charged the balcony and attempted to force Ingridson to stand down. This prompted the rebel captain to execute the Rookie with a pistol shot to the head.<ref name="nb11"/> | On [[2554|January 3, 2554]],<ref name="draco date"/> Alpha-Nine was deployed to [[Draco III]]'s capital city of [[New Albany]] as part of the UNSC's response to [[Draco III rebellion|an uprising]] instigated by the [[United Rebel Front]].

The UNSC won the ensuing firefight, with the remaining Insurrectionists killed or captured; Captain Ingridson was shot by [[Taylor Miles]] instantly after she killed the Rookie.<ref name="nb11"/> The Rookie was buried at sea from an old [[D96-TCE_Albatross|Albatross dropship]], far offshore in one of Draco III's oceans with only the rest of Alpha-Nine in attendance. Taylor Miles was shaken by his death and decided to retire, while Crespo continued to harbor a deep-seated guilt over his failure to save him. | The UNSC won the ensuing firefight, with the remaining Insurrectionists killed or captured; Captain Ingridson was shot by [[Taylor Miles]] instantly after she killed the Rookie.<ref name="nb11"/> The Rookie was buried at sea from an old [[D96-TCE_Albatross|Albatross dropship]], far offshore in one of Draco III's oceans with only the rest of Alpha-Nine in attendance.

His death would serve as one point of motivation for the remnants of Alpha-Nine to become [[Spartan-IV]]s. While talking to Buck, [[Jun-A266]] confirmed that had he lived, the Rookie would have been offered the opportunity to become a Spartan alongside the rest of his team.<ref name="NB12" /> | ||
