==Transcript==
===Head into the Park===
''Two [[AV-14 Hornet|Hornets]] fly above a plaza where a large battle between [[UNSC]] and [[Covenant]] forces takes place. [[M808 Scorpion|Scorpion]] tanks exchange fire with [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraiths]] while groups of [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] attempt to hold out large numbers of [[Sangheili]] and [[Unggoy]]. Several [[AV-22 Sparrowhawk|Sparrowhawks]], Hornets and [[Type-26 Banshee|Banshees]] battle overhead.''
[[Kwon|Lieutenant Kwon]] introduces herself as a large battle between [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] and [[M808 Scorpion|Scorpion tanks]] against [[Sangheili]], [[Unggoy]] and [[Type-26 Wraith|Wraiths]] rages in a plaza. Several [[AV-22 Sparrowhawk|Sparrowhawks]], [[AV-14 Hornet|Hornets]] and [[Type-26 Banshee|Banshees]] battle overhead. The Spartan-IV drops from orbit in a [[SOEIV]]. The impact compromises the Spartan weapons, forcing to continue without any. Upon reaching the park a lone [[Unggoy Minor]] is guarding the area completely unaware of the Spartan's precense.
 
===Melee the Grunt===
*'''[[Kwon|Lieutenant Kwon]] (COM)''': "Spartan. I'm Lieutenant Kwon. I'll be on comms to assist you throughout all your missions."
The Spartan-IV, unable to use any weapons, proceded to eliminate the Unggoy from behind with melee attacks.
 
===Grab a Plasma Pistol===
''As the two Hornets approach the a park, several [[SOEIV]] pods land in the vicinity. The view focuses on a single pod that landed inside the park's boundaries.''
After taking care of the Unggoy, the Spartan took the [[Type-25 plasma pistol|Plasma Pistol]] dropped by it's previous owner.
 
===Destroy the shield===
*'''Lieutenant Kwon (COM)''': "That was a bone rattler! The original landing zone got too hot, so we dropped you here instead."
A [[Stationary shield generator|Covenant Shield]] blocking the Spartan's way was soon disabled with the Plasma Pistol.
 
===Reach the Nearby UNSC forces===
''The SOEIV pod opens and a Spartan-IV clad in orange [[War Master]] armor jumps out.''
The Spartan-IV soon reaching a group of v about to be attacked by Unggoy squads.
 
===Eliminate the Covenant invaders===
*'''Lieutenant Kwon (COM)''': "Looks like the impact busted your weapons. We'll need to replace 'em. Sending you a waypoint."
The Marines and the Spartan are inmediately attacked by two Unggoy that are quickly eliminated while three more aprroach from an alley one by one attempting to flank. This is attack is quickly repelled.
 
===Reach the UNSC green zone===
''⚠ Head into the park''
As the Spartan departs away from the first Marine group, a Spirit dropship takes off nearby. Two additional Unggoy intercept the Spartan on his way to the green zone and are killed fighting the supersoldier.
 
===Clear the area===
''The Spartan quickly moves to the marked location. A lone [[Unggoy Minor]] is guarding the area completely unaware of the Spartan's presense.''
The Spartan-IV finds two boxes containin [[M6H magnum|magnums]] and [[MA5D assault rifle|assault rifles]]. A Spirit dropship approaches the area and a squad consisting of 3 Unggoy deploy only to fall to the combined firepower of the Marines and the Spartan. 4 more Unggoy walk into the firefight moments later from a building behind the green zone while a [[Covenant drop pod]] containing two more Unggoy lannds in the area. They are quickly dispatched by the UNSC forces.
 
===Destroy the barricade===
*'''Lieutenant Kwon (COM)''': "Eyes on that Grunt, Spartan. Use your [[melee]] skills to take him down."
Upon moving on from the UNSC green zone, the Spartan-IV runs into an area full of barricades. The very first one is conviniently surrounded by explosives, which the Spartan uses to clear a way.
 
===Find a grenade cache===
''⚠ Melee the Grunt''
Several Unggoy are roaming the next area. After clearing it of hostiles, the supersoldier finds a box with many [[M9 fragmentation grenade|fragmentation grenades]] in it.
 
===Create an exit===
''The Spartan moves closer and kills the Unggoy with a melee attack.''
Several Covenant drop pods land ahead of the Spartan. The Unggoy that came out of them are quickly killed. An [[ODST]] squad can be seen firing their guns from a rooftop. Eventually, the Spartan-IV finds his way blocked by a Covenant barricade. A cylinder full of explosive material on the other side is destroyed by the Spartan with grenades, instantly destroying the barricade and allowing passage to the highway.
 
===Reach the highrise===
*'''Lieutenant Kwon (COM)''': "Good! Now grab his weapon. Or raid that Covenant weapon locker near you."
The first section of the highway has more Unggoy in it, who die not long after the Spartan arrives.
 
===Destroy the barricade===
''⚠ Grab a Plasma Pistol''
After the firefight the Spartan finds the way blocked by several cars with the first [[Sangheili Minor]] waiting just beyond. A cache full of [[Type-1 plasma grenade|plasma grenades]] help to clear the way.
 
===Reach the highrise===
''The Spartan picks up a [[Type-25 plasma pistol|Plasma Pistol]].''
The second section of the highway is guarded by another Sangheili Minor and two Unggoy. The Spartan-IV has little to no trouble putting them down, and proceeds further.
 
===Enter the machine gun turret===
*'''Lieutenant Kwon (COM)''': "Excellent! Now destroy that [[Stationary shield generator|enemy shield]] so you can reach UNSC forces."
As a large Covenant group approaches, the Spartan-IV moves to a turret deployed in the street to repell them.
 
===Elimiate all Covenant attackers===
''⚠ Destroy the shield''
Many Sangheili and Unggoy close in to try to stop the Spartan-IV while two marines behind the Spartan fight their own battle against Unggoy. After a few moments every Covenant attacker is killed.
