Buck has a plan to escape the city through the [[MagLev Train]] tunnels leading to [[Old Mombasa]], only to realize that the area has been flooded by water. Out of options, Buck administers [[biofoam]] to Romeo's wound and, in a risky move, decides to hijack a [[Type-52 Troop Carrier|Phantom]] and fly it out of the city. Buck and [[Michael Crespo|Mickey]] make their way through heavy Covenant defenses on a station platform, where Mickey manages to steal a Phantom. While [[Taylor Miles|Dutch]] and Romeo man its turrets, Buck pilots a Banshee and escorts the Phantom though Covenant lines, which include [[Type-26 Ground Support Aircraft|Banshees]], [[Type-26 ASG|Shades]], and [[Type-52 Anti-Aircraft Artillery|Anti-Air Wraiths]]. After surviving close-quarters aerial dogfights and a few foot skirmishes through tunnels, between high-rises, and over flooded areas of the city, the squad encounters and defeats a [[Type-47B Scarab|Scarab]]. Clear of the city, Buck ditches his Banshee mid-air and boards the Phantom to rejoin his men. A comment by Romeo allows Buck to realize where [[Veronica Dare|Dare]] is, and he abruptly orders Mickey to turn around the ship so he can go find her.<ref name="ods"/> | ||
