Covenant [[Special Operations Officer]] [[Zuka 'Zamamee]] was granted permission to hunt down and kill the Spartan by the [[Council of Masters]] following the raid on the ''Truth and Reconciliation'', a request he had previously been denied. [[Soha 'Rolamee]] informed 'Zamamee that it was believed that the Master Chief was the last of his [[SPARTAN-II program|kind]], believing the rest to have been slain during the [[Fall of Reach]], and he granted the officer permission to use whatever resources he needed to in order to kill the Spartan.{{Ref/Reuse|tf4}} 'Zamamee studied the human raid on the Covenant cruiser, identifying Cortana's infiltration of the proselytization network and used this information to deduce the Master Chief's likely next course of action, concluding that the Spartan would likely assault the Cartographer island next. In order to kill the human, he laid a trap inside the security substation on the island; an ambush with the aid of his assistant, [[Yayap]] and a team of other [[Unggoy]] as well as a [[Mgalekgolo]] pair inside the darkened room adjacent to the security center.{{Ref/Novel|Id=tf5|TF|Chapter=5}} | Covenant [[Special Operations Officer]] [[Zuka 'Zamamee]] was granted permission to hunt down and kill the Spartan by the [[Council of Masters]] following the raid on the ''Truth and Reconciliation'', a request he had previously been denied.

The UNSC launched their assault on the island the following day, November 20. [[D77-TC Pelican|Pelican]]s ''[[Echo 419]]'' and ''[[Bravo 022]]'', carrying John-117 and a full squad of Marines led by [[Gunnery Sergeant]] [[Waller]], approached the island, landing on the beach downwind from a group of Covenant soldiers. The UNSC assault force outnumbered the Covenant and within ten minutes, all of the opposition was wiped out. Once the [[landing zone]] was secure, ''Echo 419'' returned, delivering an [[M12 Chaingun Warthog]]. John-117 quickly took the wheel, and along with a Marine passenger and gunner, left the beach in search of the Cartographer facility while Sergeant Waller and the rest of the Marines remained behind to secure the beach.{{Ref/Novel|Id=tf5|TF|Chapter=5}} | The UNSC launched their assault on the island the following day, November 20.
