At 0645 hours on [[2552#October|October 31, 2552]], three five-member teams from Gamma Company were competing for top honors when they experienced a disturbance in the ground. Moments later, [[Team Saber]] witnessed a large explosion near them and saw an alien drone. When the drone appeared to have shields, they assumed that it was a [[Covenant]] force and alerted the two other teams, [[Team Gladius|Gladius]] and [[Team Katana|Katana]]. Meanwhile, Lieutenant Commander Ambrose desperately tried to contact the Spartans, but was unable to find them; he then went to Camp Currahee's armory to procure heavy weapons. | At 0645 hours on [[2552#October|October 31, 2552]], three five-member teams from Gamma Company were competing for top honors when they experienced a disturbance in the ground.
