The [[Karo'etba-pattern Ghost|Ghost]] skimmed the surface of the Forerunner terrain as its [[Sangheili|Elite]] rider deftly dodged the latest salvo of enemy fire from the [[AV-14 Hornet|Hornets]] hounding it, effortlessly taking a sudden sharp turn to widen the gap between the pursuers. This particular Sangheili was a confident and experienced driver, a far cry from the Ghost's first owner. | The [[Karo'etba-pattern Ghost|Ghost]] skimmed the surface of the Forerunner terrain as its [[Sangheili|Elite]] rider deftly dodged the latest salvo of enemy fire from the [[AV-14 Hornet|Hornets]] hounding it, effortlessly taking a sudden sharp turn to widen the gap between the pursuers.

The Ghost first saw service in [[2552]] on the planet [[Reach]], but it was short-lived. The young Sangheili who drove it then was overeager and reckless, so sure of the [[Covenant]]'s superiority that he rushed ahead of the rest of the squad and was quickly picked off by UNSC [[sniper]] fire before being able to baptize the Ghost's [[Class-2 directed energy cannon|plasma cannons]]. The Ghost sat out the rest of the battle until being collected and returned to a Covenant [[dropship]]. | The Ghost first saw [[Fall of Reach|service]] in [[2552]] on the planet [[Reach]], but it was short-lived.

In 2552, the Ghost and its new rider were deployed to the [[Installation 00|Ark]] where it fought in the climactic [[Battle of Installation 00|battle]] of the [[Human-Covenant war]] - this time piloted by a veteran [[Jiralhanae]] warrior. However, despite the Ghost pilot's combat experience he was unprepared for the [[John-117|Demon]], who surprised the Brute from nowhere and threw his body from the vehicle. | In 2552, the Ghost and its new rider were deployed to the [[Installation 00|Ark]] where it fought in the climactic [[Battle of Installation 00|battle]] of the [[Human-Covenant War|Human-Covenant war]] - this time piloted by a veteran [[Jiralhanae]] warrior.

Amazingly, this Demon demonstrated all the skill of a trained Jiralhanae in using the Ghost's tricky controls, turning the Ghost's plasma cannons against its own kind and using it as a bludgeoning tool to ram through clusters of shrieking [[Unggoy]]s. This Demon, the Ghost's third driver, was the shortest owner and quickly abandoned it once it had started belching smoke from the damage inflicted upon it. | Amazingly, this Demon demonstrated all the skill of a trained Jiralhanae in using the Ghost's tricky controls, turning the Ghost's plasma cannons against its own kind and using it as a bludgeoning tool to ram through clusters of shrieking [[Unggoy]]s.
