The United Rebel Front took control of Draco III's [[Draco III capitol building|capitol building]] located in [[New Albany]], [[Lombard]] and barricaded themselves inside of the building. URF Captain [[Ingridson]] took command of the uprising from inside the capitol building.<ref name="nb22">'''Halo: New Blood''', ''pages 22-24'' (Google Play edition)</ref> A majority of Draco III's new colonists were not pleased with the URF's violent attempt at seceding from the UEG. The [[UNSC]]'s [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] recognized that Draco III held strategic importance to the Unified Earth Government's mission to reclaim the colonies that were lost during the Covenant War. In response, ONI Captain [[Veronica Dare]] sent in [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper]] squad [[Alpha-Nine]], led by Gunnery Sergeant [[Edward Buck]], to retake the capitol building and eliminate Ingridson.{{Ref/Reuse|nb19}} The capitol building was the best-built structure on the planet, and was impermeable to most ordnance.

When Alpha-Nine—consisting of Buck, [[Taylor Miles|Taylor "Dutch" Miles]], [[Kojo Agu|Kojo "Romeo" Agu]], [[Michael Crespo|Michael "Mickey" Crespo]], and [[Jonathan Doherty|Jonathan "the Rookie" Doherty]]—entered the capitol building, they made their way to its legislature chamber. After using explosives to blast their way through, the squad's entrance was promptly closed by the insurgents as they passed through. Buck sent the Rookie to enter an emergency door, but he was captured and shot in the shoulder by the URF soldiers. They dragged him up to the presidential balcony, which was protected by [[energy shielding]]. Ingridson, holding her pistol to the Rookie's head, threatened to execute him if the ODSTs did not surrender.

As a stand-off ensued, [[Spartan Operations|Spartan]] [[Sarah Palmer]] offered Buck some assistance.{{Ref/Reuse|nb22}}

Buck did not want Ingridson to execute the Rookie upon seeing the [[SPARTAN-IV]]s, so he declined Palmer's aid. Ingridson shot the Rookie in the knee when the ODSTs proved to be uncooperative. Buck relented and presented himself to the rebel captain, dropping his pistol on the ground; Buck had Romeo do the same. Buck and Ingridson engaged in a conversation about each others' views, with both individuals attempting to stall the other to allow their respective forces get in position. While Palmer and her Spartans engaged the insurgents outside the building, Dutch and Mickey got into position and Buck ordered the squad to attack the rebels. In the ensuring firefight, Mickey held the rebels at gunpoint and ordered them to surrender. Ingridson shot the Rookie in the head in an act of desperation. In retaliation, Dutch killed a rebel and Ingridson with his [[shotgun]], while the remaining insurgent surrendered. Seconds later, having eliminated the URF soldiers outside the building, Palmer and her Spartans met up with the survivors of Alpha-Nine inside the capitol building.<ref>'''Halo: New Blood''', ''pages 89-95'' (Google Play edition)</ref>
