Upon the mission's completion, ''Persian Gate'' moved in with the rest of the UNSC fleet to retrieve Blue Team, deploying Pelican dropship [[Tango 360]] to the surface while the remaining UNSC warships fought a holding action against the advancing Covenant. Tango 360 retrieved the Spartans, returning to the ''Persian Gate'' but abandoning the surviving URF fighters against [[John-117]]'s protests. The ''Persian Gate'' then fled into [[slipspace]] as the Covenant opened fire on the UNSC fleet. | |||
