In [[2553#May|May | In [[2553#May|May 2553]], the Office of Naval Intelligence learned of [[Covert Support Base 4276|a Forerunner structure]] host to [[Intrepid Eye|an ancilla]] located within the [[Montero Cave System]] on the human [[Outer Colony]] of [[Gao]] in the [[Cordoba system]]. Lucy and the rest of Blue Team—Fred, Kelly, Linda, Tom, Ash, Olivia, and Mark—were attached to ONI's [[717th Xeno-Materials Exploitation Battalion]], a research battalion charged with recovering the AI.<ref>'''Halo: Last Light''', ''page 33'' (Google Play edition)</ref> Meanwhile, a string of murders had been occurring in the cave systems; the UNSC forces on Gao agreed to help the [[Gao Ministry of Protection|Ministry of Protection]] with the murders while they covertly located the AI, both parties unaware that the murders were caused by the ancilla. After another victim had been discovered in the caves, Lucy, Tom, Kelly, and Linda were tasked with escorting the GMoP team and the bagged victim back to the village of [[Wendosa]], while the rest of Blue Team continued to search for the ancilla.<ref>'''Halo: Last Light''', ''page 146'' (Google Play edition)</ref> | ||
Upon arriving at Wendosa on [[2553#July|July 4, 2553]], the Spartans attempted to deliver the victim to a [[Pelican]] [[dropship]] for extraction. However, the four Spartans were spotted by members of the [[Keepers of the One Freedom]], a radical [[Covenant remnants|Covenant sect]] that had traveled to Gao in search for the ancilla. The cult's [[Jiralhanae]] leader, [[Castor]], believed that the bagged victim aboard the Pelican was actually the ancilla and ordered his forces to attack Wendosa to retrieve the AI.<ref>'''Halo: Last Light''', ''pages 134-136'' (Google Play edition)</ref><ref>'''Halo: Last Light''', ''pages 141-142'' (Google Play edition)</ref> As the Keepers of the One Freedom attacked the village, Lucy and the other Spartans helped [[Charlie Company (717th)|Charlie Company]] defend the rest of the research battalion. While the [[company]] took a defensive position in [[Hotel Wendosa]], Lucy and the Spartans formed a skirmish ring around the hotel, attempting to disrupt enemy formations and prevent a Jiralhanae charge.<ref>'''Halo: Last Light''', ''pages 183-185'' (Google Play edition)</ref> | Upon arriving at Wendosa on [[2553#July|July 4, 2553]], the Spartans attempted to deliver the victim to a [[Pelican]] [[dropship]] for extraction.

On [[2554|March 29, 2554]], Lucy and Tom were in their office reviewing the performance of the new Spartan-IV class when an explosion rocked the station, causing the section they were in to lose gravity. As the pair attempted to assess the situation, Lucy noticed [[Jun-A266]] and the rogue Spartan-IV recruit [[Rudolf Schein]] fighting outside in space, having been blasted out during Schein's attempt to sabotage the station. Jun was able to break from Schein's grip and kick off from the rogue Spartan's chest, sending Schein deeper into space—and Jun back towards the station. At once, Lucy prompted Tom to an [[airlock]] where he, attached to a tether, launched himself into space without a [[vacuum suit]] to rescue Jun. Lucy held onto the tether to control Tom's path and he finally managed to grab hold of Jun. She was able to pull both of them inside the airlock safely, though all three Spartans had to be treated in the infirmary for several days due to their exposure to raw vacuum.{{Ref/Reuse|lessons}} | On [[2554|March 29, 2554]], Lucy and Tom were in their office reviewing the performance of the new Spartan-IV class when an explosion rocked the station, causing the section they were in to lose gravity.
