He, [[Lieutenant]] [[Elias Haverson]], [[Staff Sergeant]] [[Avery Johnson]] and [[Warrant Officer]] [[Sheila Polaski]] hid in the debris field until they met with [[John-117]] and [[Cortana]] in their [[Longsword]] fighter. The Master Chief recognized that Locklear was in a state of shock from the destruction of the Halo, describing him as "an assault rifle with its safety permanently clicked off." Locklear was reluctant to accept the Master Chief's command at first,<ref>'''Halo: First Strike''', ''page 51''</ref> but was eventually subdued by the Chief's greater authority.

Locklear helped in the [[Skirmish over Threshold|capture of the ''Ascendant Justice'']], and was aboard when they returned to [[Reach]]. He then accompanied the Master Chief to the surface of Reach, where they rescued the [[SPARTAN-II]]s who had survived the fall of Reach. At some point, he developed a crush on Polaski, who also returned his feelings.<ref>'''Halo: First Strike''', ''page 153''</ref> He was greatly saddened when she was killed during a battle within the [[Slipspace]] bubble caused by the [[Forerunner crystal]] artifact. | Locklear helped in the [[Skirmish over Threshold|capture of the ''Ascendant Justice'']], and was aboard when they returned to [[Reach]].
