Investigating the teleporter network on Lyric (11th November 2609)[]
On the 11th November 2609 four members of the team, Captain Dave, Miller, Mage and Woods were sent to investigate a teleporter network that had just appeared on the planet of Lyric, more specifically within the . Upon landing Woods stayed behind to guard the ship whilst the others went ahead.
Unknown to the team the EARTHBOUND lieutenant Sinister had snuck aboard the ship and killed Woods, after reaching the Forerunner towers sniped Mage killing him.
Realising the threat Dave and Miller took cover and fought against waves of EARTHBOUND Drones whilst taking cover from Sinister's sniper shots, mid way though the battle a second lieutenant called Shadow emerged from her hiding place in a nearby rock pool and began firing shots from her SAW.
