When the task force arrived in-system on [[2526#March|March 18]], it was discovered that [[insurrectionist]] forces were occupying the quarry. As such, the UNSC would need to uproot them before the Covenant inevitably arrived.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS7|HSS|Chapter=7}} Kelly and the rest of Blue Team followed John as he disobeyed orders and leapt from the troop bay of the {{UNSCShip|Ghost Song}} while under fire. During the insertion, one of the [[prowler]]s managed to damage the insurrectionist base's communications relay, severing its connection with potential reinforcements. However, the rest of [[Ghost Flight]] was forced to withdraw when the {{UNSCShip|Ghost Star}} was shot down. The Spartans regrouped in the quarry's abandoned docks to discuss how they would destroy the [[Civet]] convoy travelling up the side of the quarry to fix the relay. With approval from [[Captain (UNICOM)|Captain]] [[Zelos Cuvier]] and [[Lieutenant]] [[Nelly Hamm]], they came up with a plan to travel up the accelerator tube of a [[mass driver]] rising five kilometers up and out of the quarry, using thruster packs to outpace the convoy.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS8|HSS|Chapter=8}} As the tube was mostly full of ice, Fred expressed doubt that they would be able to advance quickly enough without a larger flamethrower and more time. He also suggested the possibility that Blue Team was being used as a diversion to allow Hamm and her troopers to eliminate the convoy themselves. Nevertheless, they went forward with the plan, with Linda staying back to cover them with her [[MA5B assault rifle]] and to watch for any hint that the insurrectionists had discovered what they were doing. John led the way, with Fred and then Kelly trailing behind. Linda informed them that the vibrations of them bumping into the tube was launching ice crystals into the sky. Despite the ongoing firefight with the Black Daggers, the insurgents soon discovered the Spartans' plan and began sweeping a portion of the tube ahead of them with an [[M41 Vulcan]]. To distract the gunner, John and Fred rigged their [[thermite-carbon cord]] and [[M7057 flamethrower|I-JeT]] to explode as they moved past the Vulcan fire. Linda began slowly working her way up up the quarry, quietly eliminating insurgents as she went. Shortly thereafter, Blue Team discovered that Fred was right and that Hamm's men had intercepted the convoy via a prowler drop while the enemy was distracted by the Spartans. The ODSTs had also planted explosives on the communications relay by the time Blue Team exited the tube. John expressed his team's misgivings to Hamm about being lied to and used as bait, but she dismissed him, saying that this was what happens when he disobeys orders.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS10|HSS|Chapter=10}} | When the task force arrived in-system on [[2526#March|March 18]], it was discovered that [[insurrectionist]] forces were occupying the quarry.
