Prior to the creation of the final roster of Kilo-Five, [[Margaret Parangosky]] considered [[Edward Buck]] for inclusion on the team as late as January 9, [[2553]]. However, Buck's candidacy was ruled out due to his sense of ethics, his personal attachment to [[Alpha-Nine|his team]], and his tendency to favor the lives of his subordinates over the completion of objectives.<ref>'''[[Halo Legendary Crate]]''', ''[[Halo Legendary Crate/Data Drops|Data Drop #2]]''</ref>
Prior to the creation of the final roster of Kilo-Five, [[Margaret Parangosky]] considered [[Edward Buck]] for inclusion on the team as late as January 9, [[2553]]. However, Buck's candidacy was ruled out due to his sense of ethics, his personal attachment to [[Alpha-Nine|his team]], and his tendency to favor the lives of his subordinates over the completion of objectives. All members of Kilo-Five were selected for moral and compliance attributes. They were all known to show exceptional skills in completing assignments while also being able to maintain solid conscious and compassion on the fly. Every member of Kilo-Five also brought special skills specifically needed for their roll with ONI: Osman, a Spartan washout, was being tested and groomed as Parangosky’s replacement; Phillips was the alien expert; Devereaux was a crack pilot; Geffen was strength and stability; Beloi was a pragmatist; Naomi was a Spartan; and BB was a smart AI dedicated to ONI’s agenda.<ref>'''[[Halo Legendary Crate]]''', ''[[Halo Legendary Crate/Data Drops|Data Drop #2]]''</ref>

====UNSC ''Ariadne''====
The {{UNSCShip|Ariadne}} experienced reactor complications and was forced to drop out of [[Slipstream space|slipspace]] near [[Venezia]]. Having received no assistance from the [[Insurrectionist]]-controlled colony, ''Ariadne'' sent a message to [[Earth]] asking for help. The {{UNSCShip|Monte Cassino}} was dispatched - both to evacuate the ship's crew and to rendezvous with the {{UNSCship|Port Stanley}} for a personnel transfer. However, the reactor exploded before any help could arrive, and the ''Ariadne'' was lost with all hands. Prior to the ''Monte Cassino'''s return trip to [[Earth]], ''Port Stanley'' transferred Mike Spenser and Tom Muir to the ship.<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''page 184''</ref>

Kilo-Five attended the Voi Memorial in Kenya on March 3rd. Admiral Parangosky informed Osman that she would be appointed rear admiral and her successor the following month. Shortly after, Evan Phillips, along with a fragment of BB, left ''Port Stanley'' to visit Sanghelios. He arrived in the state of [[Vadam]] and requested a tour of the planet's most ancient cities.

====Rescue of Evan Phillips====
''Port Stanley'' returned to Sanghelios as 'Telcam began his [[Blooding Years|assault on Vadam]]. Utilizing the Pelican ''[[Tart-Cart]]'', Kilo-Five searched for Phillips in Ontom and inside the [[Temple of the Abiding Truth]]. They eventually located Phillips through an intercepted communication and traveled to the state of [[Acroli]] to evacuate him. They extracted Phillips in the midst of a skirmish at [[Nes'alun keep]]. During the evacuation, ''Tart-Cart'' was damaged by a Banshee, forcing Devereaux to put her down for repairs. They were eventually forced to accept parts from the Sangheili, [[Forze 'Mdama]]. Once repairs were made, they flew back to ''Stanley''. During their flight back, a fire erupted and they had to re-route to the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}, which was deployed on trial to Sanghelios to test its capabilities in the guise of assisting the Arbiter and his forces.

Meanwhile, a Kig-Yar pirate crew contracted by 'Telcam located ''Pious Inquisitor'' and attempted to commandeer the ship for themselves. Sinks, distrustful of the Kig-Yar and only compliant to Sentzke's orders, placed the ship in complete lockdown. Once Kilo-Five located the ship, Sentzke convinced Sinks to allow them to come onboard. Planning to escape, Sentzke had Vaz promise to take care of Naomi and in turn gave his word to cease his aggression against Earth. Mal and Naomi boarded the ship in a different location and eliminated members of the Kig-Yar crew. The Shipmistress, [[Chol Von]], set the ship to explode and escaped with her remaining crew. While Kilo-Five escaped to their dropships, Sentzke took a [[Type-25 Spirit|Spirit]] from the [[shuttle bay]] but stayed in range to ensure Naomi was safe. Vaz requested BB to give Sentzke the file on Naomi's kidnapping to prove him right to his doubting family; BB complied and sent the files to Sentzke's Spirit. BB discovered Sinks had secretly rigged the Spirit with a miniature slipspace drive which would enable him and Sentzke to escape. Black-Box knew ONI would never stop hunting Sentzke if they knew he was alive and chose to erase his own recollection of the incident, leaving Kilo-Five to conclude that Sentzke had died when the ship exploded.

Once the Venezian threat was neutralized, Kilo-Five was granted shore leave.

As of [[2560]], their status remains unknown.{{Ref/Book|Enc22|Page=111}}
