That same day, Daisy-023, the other Spartans, Staff Sergeant Johnson, and Dr. Halsey left the [[Kolaqoa system]] aboard the ''Vanishing Point'', with two prowlers trailing them as escort. Two days later, the three ships dropped out of [[slipspace]]at Etalan and the ''Vanishing Point''{{'}}s analysts the next four days observing the logistics fleet's movements, trying to discern which vessels should be targeted first. By [[2526#March|March 26]], they felt confident that four of the fleet's fifteen vessels were equipment [[freighter]]s carrying spare parts and other materials that would be used to keep the Fleet of Inexorable Obedience operational. At this point, the logistics fleet was seemingly preparing to leave Etalan, evidenced by the fact that they had begun syncing their orbits and bringing their [[fusion reactor]]s to full power. As time was running out, Daisy, the rest of Gold Team, and Green Team were deployed in [[S-14 Baselard]]s with the objective of destroying the equipment freighters while Blue Team remained on the ''Vanishing Point'', preparing for their phase of the attack. Gold and Green Teams were split up into groups of two to pilot each of their Baselards. The four Spartan-manned fighters flew at the center of a formation of twenty total Baselards. The plan was for the squadron to pierce through the logistics vessels' screen of Banshees and [[Seraph]]s, then the eight Spartans would go [[Extra-vehicular activity|EV]] after faking the destruction of their Baselards. To camouflage their approach, their fighters were equipped with pods of chain-linked debris that would deploy upon the crafts' destruction. Then, the Spartans would board the target vessels and plant their HAVOK nukes before fleeing. Due to the high risk involved with performing such maneuvers, both teams were given strict orders to abort the mission if it became apparent that they would not reach their targets.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS19|HSS|Chapter=19}}
