Thomas Lasky: Difference between revisions

By the end of the war, Lasky had risen to the rank of commander and had been appointed as the [[executive officer]] of the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}, the most powerful vessel in the Fleet. This posting was partially arranged by [[Margaret Parangosky|Admiral Margaret Parangosky]], who thought highly of Lasky.{{Ref/Reuse|ttw48}} In [[2553#January|January 2553]], he gave a tour of the ship to [[Jun-A266]] and four of the first [[SPARTAN-IV]]s, including [[Sarah Palmer]]. This was interrupted when [[Ilsa Zane]] and a group of Insurrectionists [[Raid on UNSC Infinity|took control of the ''Infinity'']] disguised as construction workers while Lasky and the Spartans were on ''Infinity''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s S-Deck. The insurgents were a part of the [[New Colonial Alliance]] and wished to steal the ''Infinity'' so they could use the vessel for their own ambitions. Zane and her rebels took Del Rio and the ship's bridge crew hostage and shut down [[Aine]], the ship's temporary [[AI]], leaving Lasky and the Spartans to end the raid.<ref>'''[[Halo: Initiation]]''', ''[[Halo: Initiation Issue 2|Issue #2]]''</ref> As Lasky and the Spartans make their way to the bridge, Zane decompressed S-Deck, ejecting several of the ship's crew members into space, with Lasky and Jun being saved by Palmer and [[Edward Davis]]. With the Spartans' help, Lasky was able to reach a security panel and input override codes, which gave Del Rio and the other officers access to the bridge and reactivated Aine. Meanwhile, Palmer and Davis made their way to the bridge along the exterior hull of the ship. When Zane attempted to have her insurgents attack Lasky and the other Spartans, Lasky closed a [[blast door]] between them. While Davis eliminated most of the rebels, Palmer ejected Zane into space. With the UNSC in control of the ''Infinity'' again, the remaining insurgents were captured and interrogated by the UNSC.<ref>'''Halo: Initiation''', ''[[Halo: Initiation Issue 3|Issue #3]]''</ref>
