==Summary==
==Summary==
As Crimson's Phantom approaches the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}, the ship's automated defenses target them. Their [[Ru'swum-pattern Phantom|Phantom]] is hit and crash lands in the hangar, but everyone survives. Crimson assists the Marines in securing the hangar, then attempt to close the hangar doors. Unfortunately, ship systems are malfunctioning due to [[Requiem slipspace artifacts|the artifact]] and the doors will not shut. Crimson is forced to fight off several more waves of incoming [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|Covenant]] before being ordered to go to the ship's server room to power cycle the systems.
{{Expand-Section}}
 
Crimson fights their way to the server room where they perform the necessary power cycle. Despite repeated attacks by [[Promethean]]s, Crimson holds the room until the power cycle is complete. However, they still have to shut the hangar doors manually. The Spartans return to the hangar, which has once again been invaded by Covenant. They secure the hangar again and successfully shut the doors, cutting off further intrusions. Roland then tells Crimson to get to the Engine Room immediately as ''Infinity'' is in danger of blowing up.
