| '''Malcolm-059''', was a [[SPARTAN-II Program|SPARTAN-II]] supersoldier. During [[Operation: SILENT STORM]], he served as part of [[Green Team]], led by [[Kurt-051]].{{Ref/Reuse|HSS3}}
| | ==Summary== |
| | Malcolm-059 was one of the [[Spartans|Spartan-II]] supersoldiers. Not much is known about him. |

| ==Biography== | | ==Biography== |
| ===Conscription===
| | Malcolm-059 was abducted and conscripted into the SPARTAN-II program by [[Dr. Catherine Halsey]] in 2517 when he was six years old. He was taken to [[Reach]] and trained by [[Deja]] and [[Chief Petty Officer Mendez]] along with the rest of the Spartan children. |
| Malcolm-059 was a genetically, intellectually, and physically gifted child chosen for the [[SPARTAN-II]] project. He was abducted by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] and replaced with a [[flash clone]] when he was around six years old. He and seventy-four other children were taken to [[Reach]] in the Epsilon Eridani system. There, he was trained by the [[dumb AI|"dumb"AI]], [[Déjà]] and [[Chief Petty Officer]] [[Franklin Mendez]], with the two serving as the Spartans' teacher and drill instructor, respectively. In [[2519]], he was taken alongside his fellow trainees to a [[Military Wilderness Training Preserve]] for a mission that required each trainee to be left alone in the woods with a only a single piece of a map. It was up to them to find one another so that they could piece the map together and locate the designated extraction point. The mission was ultimately a success. At another point during training, Malcolm and the others traveled to [[Emerald Cove]] for an underwater mission. There, they abandoned Mendez and lived on their own on an island for a few days. By July 14, [[2523]], Malcolm and his fellow Spartan-IIs had begun facing the formidable and ruthless UNSC Marine Corps' [[Tango Company]] in simulated war games. On March 9, 2525, Malcolm and the rest of the Spartan-II candidates underwent their [[augmentation]] procedures at [[Medical Facility Endurance]] orbiting Reach. After successfully enduring the procedures, Malcolm later attended a military funeral aboard the carrier, the [[UNSC Atlas]], in the [[Lambda Serpentis]] system for the Spartans who died during the process. Afterwards, they all returned to Reach for their final training phase in the [[Highland Mountains]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=FoR|TFoR|Chapter=??}} | |

|
| ===Beginning of the War===
| | He was never mentioned by name until [[The Battle of Reach]]. He was assigned to Red team, by [[Master Chief|John-117]]. When Red Team was forced to jump to the surface of Reach from their crashing [[Pelican]], [[Bravo 001]], Malcolm hit the ground hard, and was killed on impact. |
| {{Main|Human-Covenant War}}
| |
| After the [[Covenant]] attack on [[Harvest]] and the beginning of the [[Human-Covenant War]], Malcolm and the rest of the Spartan-IIs were brought to the [[Reach FLEETCOM Military Complex]], where Rear [[Admiral]] [[Michael Stanforth]] and the AI, [[Beowulf]], briefed them on the emerging Covenant threat. In response, the training of Malcolm and the rest of the Spartan-IIs was accelerated, and the Spartans were sent to [[Chi Ceti IV]] in the Chi Ceti system to receive their new [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor]] from the [[Damascus Materials Testing Facility]] in order to aid in combat against the alien threat. While en route to Chi Ceti IV aboard the [[Paris-class heavy frigate]], the {{UNSCShip|Commonwealth}}, they were attacked by the Covenant warship, ''[[Unrelenting]]''. The ''Commonwealth'' was able to ward off the ''Unrelenting'' and the Spartans were deployed to Chi Ceti IV with Halsey, where they each recieved a set of armor. While the Spartans were returning to the ''Commonwealth'', the ''Unrelenting'' returned and engaged the frigate. To provide aid to the ''Commonwealth'', John had Malcolm and the other Spartan-IIs use [[thruster pack]]s to embark towards the ''Unrelenting'' so that they could destroy the warship with [[Anvil-II air-to-surface missile|Anvil-II AS missiles]], though only John, [[Kelly-087]], and [[Samuel-034]] made it aboard. Malcolm and the others missed the ''Unrelenting'', but were picked up after the battle.{{Ref/Novel|Id=FoR2|TFoR|Chapter=??}}

| | Later, his team leader, [[Frederic-104]], salvaged an unbroken [[Pressure Seal]] from Malcolm's [[MJOLNIR]] suit. Though he loathed doing this, Fredric decided that "it would dishonor his fallen comrade not to use his gift of the spare part." |
| {{Main|Skirmish over Netherop}}
| |
| By early [[2526]], Malcolm, [[Anton-044]], and [[Solomon-069]] had been assigned to [[Green Team]], which was then led by [[Kurt-051]]. On [[2526#March|March 5]] of that year, Malcolm and eleven other Spartans were organized into an assault squad with orders to board and capture a [[Covenant frigate]], ''[[Radiant Arrow]]'', orbiting the planet [[Netherop]]. To accomplish this, they were deployed from the [[prowler]] {{UNSCShip|Starry Night}} for an [[Extra-vehicular activity|EVA]] [[Naval boarding|boarding action]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS1|HSS|Chapter=1}} Using a flight of [[Elsedda-pattern Banshee|Banshee]]s for cover, the twelve Spartans stealthily approached the alien vessel.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS2|HSS|Chapter=2}} Once they [[Skirmish over Netherop|boarded]] the frigate via its underslung hangar, they eliminated the Covenant forces within and prepared to move deeper into the frigate, without the rest of crew realizing they had been boarded. [[Blue Team]] spearheaded the assault, clearing rooms along the ship's main corridor as Malcolm and the rest of Green Team secured these chambers and any intersections they encountered. As the two teams continued on, a sensor operator aboard one of the prowlers "accidentally" broadcast a transmission on the Spartans' [[COM|SQUADCOM]], revealing their presence to the frigate's crew. Unbeknownst to them, the crewman's apparent mistake was part of an [[insurrectionist]] plot designed by [[Hector Nyeto]], who intended to get the Spartans killed. With their presence known, Blue and Green Teams split up, with John leading his team to the bridge. Green Team would make their way to the [[engineering]] section until John informed them of the ship's imminent [[self-destruct]]ion at the hands of its [[shipmaster]], and ordered them to evacuate. All of the Spartans—including Malcolm—made it to safety before the ''Radiant Arrow'' detonated.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS3|HSS|Chapter=3}}

|
| ===SILENT STORM===
| | {{spartan}} |
| {{Main|Operation: SILENT STORM}} | |
| On [[2526#March|March 8, 2526]], Malcolm, Green Team, and the other Spartans that had participated in the pervious mission were given a new assignment as part of [[Operation: SILENT STORM]]. They and the [[UNSC Marine Corps]]' [[21st Space Assault Battalion]] would board and destroy Covenant vessels and [[Space station|station]]s in an attempt to slow their destructive [[Massacre of the Outer Colonies|advance]] through humanity's [[Outer Colonies]]. For the duration of this mission, the Spartans would be assigned to [[Task Force Yama]], a small fleet of prowlers that would serve as both transport and support. As [[Fleet of Inexorable Obedience|a Covenant fleet]] was [[Attack on Etalan|currently]] [[glassing]] the colony of [[Etalan]], the nearby world of [[Biko]] was chosen as the theater for the [[task force]] to launch its first attack. Specifically, [[Seoba Ice Quarry|an abandoned ice quarry]] on its third [[Natural satellite|moon]] of [[Seoba]] was selected to house the prowlers until the moment presented itself.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS5|HSS|Chapter=5}}
| |
|
| |
|
| During the voyage through [[slipspace]], Malcolm and the others trained with the [[ODST]]s in the {{UNSCShip|Vanishing Point}}'s mission preparation hold. The Spartans made short work of the veteran marines in each exercise until [[Staff Sergeant]] [[Avery Johnson]] taught them some unorthodox strategies that proved to be much more effective against the supersoldiers. After four days of training, [[Colonel]] [[Marmon Crowther]] had them all gather in the ship's drop hangar to be briefed on the specifics of the operation. Despite their exemplary performance against his ODSTs, Crowther was still skeptical about deploying the Spartans to the front lines due to their inexperience on the battlefield, as well as their apparent young age, much to their frustration.{{Ref/Reuse|HSS5}}

| | |
| ===Seoba===
| |
| {{Main|Battle of Seoba}}
| |
| Upon the task force's arrival at Seoba on [[2526#March|March 18, 2526]], Colonel Crowther planned to practice the mass deployment of the Spartans and ODSTs into the ice quarry, in an exercise dubbed Operation: ICE DANCE. However, entrenched [[insurrectionist]] forces were detected in the quarry, and they were preparing to stage a coup against Biko's chancellor. Crowther decided that ICE DANCE would proceed as planned, but now with the objective of taking the quarry from the rebels.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS7|HSS|Chapter=7}} An intense [[Battle of Seoba|battle]] ensued, with the Spartans leading the way. Blue Team focused on destroying a convoy of [[Civet]]s moving to repair the rebels' damaged communications relay as the other Spartans—including Malcolm and Green Team—were engaged elsewhere.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS8|HSS|Chapter=8}} Ultimately, the insurgents were soon defeated and the quarry fell under UNSC control.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS10|HSS|Chapter=10}}
| |
| | |
| The next day, [[Captain (NAVCOM)|Captain]] [[Halima Ascot]], commander of Task Force Yama and captain of the ''Starry Night'', held a meeting to discuss the events of the previous day's battle. John was reprimanded for his maverick actions at the start of the battle, and his Spartans' experience was called into question once more. Due to some of Nyeto's sly comments, the truth about their young ages was revealed to the few personnel present at the meeting. Learning this disturbing fact, Colonel Crowther refused to send the Spartans into battle again, instead ordering them to guard the insurrectionists captured during the fighting and prepare them to be sent to Biko to be processed. While this meeting was being held, a Covenant [[Bloodstar Flotilla|flotilla]] was detected as it arrived in-system and began heading for Seoba.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS11|HSS|Chapter=11}} As the rest of Task Force Yama mobilized to meet the alien vessels, Malcolm and the other Spartans were sent to [[Subsurface Maintenance Grotto 6M430]] where they would direct the captured insurgents onto [[Emmeline|a transport]]. While the line of roughly 300 prisoners marched onto the vessel, John noticed that a group of them were hiding the presence of an officer, [[General]] [[Harper Garvin]] of the [[United Rebel Front]]. He ordered the officer to step forward, but [[Petora Zoyas|another rebel]] presented herself instead, clearly trying to stall for Garvin. To show that he meant business, John grabbed the woman by her tunic lapels and threatened her with summary execution for interfering with a guard while on the field of combat, as per the [[UNSC Military Code of Conduct]]. John's plan worked and General Garvin presented himself. He began trying to pry information out of John, but this effort was interrupted when a situation with Captain Ascot's [[flagship]] was relayed over the task force's command channel. The ''Starry Night'' had been shot down on takeoff, crash-landing back into the quarry. Crowther was unable to send a unit of his Black Daggers to search for survivors without putting more prowlers at risk. Since they were the only unit available to assist, John decided that he and his Spartans would go for the ''Starry Night'' once the transport was loaded. After sending Garvin back to his people and ordering the transport pilot to launch, John had his Spartans move out, much to the concern of [[Joshua-029]] and Kurt-051. Not only would they be disobeying a direct order from Crowther, operating without the support of the task force in such a situation would be very risky.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS13|HSS|Chapter=13}}

| | |
| Malcolm and the others proceeded to the grotto's access vestibule and entered its airlock, sealing the inner hatch. With that, they stepped out into the dense sublimation fog coating the quarry floor. Visibility was so poor that each of the Spartans could barely even see the ends of their rifles, but the flashes of plasma bolts could be seen dancing through the clouds above. John accessed the command channel and requested that he and his teammates receive a [[Navigation point|waypoint]] leading to the downed prowler. Crowther quickly responded by asking what he thought he was doing. John stated that they were checking on the status of the ''Starry Night'' as they were the only unit that could do so at the moment, carefully choosing his words so that Crowther could deflect blame onto the Spartan if need be. This would make it more likely for Crowther to not stand in the way of their self-assigned mission. While John waited for a response, he signaled Kurt and Joshua to spread out their teams in a hundred-meter-wide search line. Malcolm and the rest of Green Team spaced out on the left of the more tightly-gathered Blue Team, as Gold Team spaced out on the right. Doing this, the Spartans would be more likely to find any debris from the ''Starry Night'' that might have otherwise been missed in the fog. John also ordered them to advance at a trotting speed, leading them away from the dockyards where Blue Team had engaged insurgents the day before. When Crowther still had not responded, John added over the command channel that they would simply take a look at the crash site and report what they found.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS14|HSS|Chapter=14}}
| |
| | |
| With that reassurance, Crowther finally acknowledged John's plan, but ordered him to not take action unless immediately warranted. He also informed the Spartans of Biko's naval response to the alien bombardment of Seoba and that Nyeto believed that the small Covenant flotilla would either be in full retreat or destroyed within the hour by the approaching overwhelming force. An inexact waypoint was placed on each of the Spartans' HUDs and John had them all adjust course to match the new trajectory. With the fog still as dense as ever, John ordered them to advance at a full run while keeping their eyes on their feet, since that was all they could see anyway. As they ran, the ''Emmeline'' departed the grotto and flew over the Spartans, churning up the fog and allowing a brief moment of visibility. Through the haze, they could see five Covenant vessels fire towards the transport as it crested the horizon.{{Ref/Reuse|HSS14}}
| |
| | |
| As the Spartans neared the provided waypoint, the fog had lowered to shoulder-height, allowing the Spartans to discover that the ''Starry Night'' was indeed seemingly intact, but sat atop a large avalanche about seven hundred meters up the quarry wall. [[Frederic-104]] spotted a Covenant intrusion corvette sliding over the rim of the quarry and descending over the prowler. Kelly-087 theorized that they may be trying to recover the ''Starry Night'' themselves. Realizing the danger, John declared to his teammates that the mission was no longer a rescue mission. Their primary objective was now to deny the Covenant from recovering the prowler and the data stored within. Opening the command channel again, John relayed this information to Crowther, who echoed his concerns and insisted that they could not let the Covenant take possession of the ''Starry Night''. The vessel's [[navigation computer]] and other onboard data devices could reveal the locations of UNSC outposts, entire force deployments, or worse. Crowther asked Nyeto if there was any way to remotely activate the prowler's [[Nuclear weapon|nuclear]] self-destruct system, to which the lieutenant commander responded in the affirmative. However, there were only three positions that had access to that ability. The first two were the flight commander and wing commander, both of which were roles held by Captain Ascot, who was either dead or unable to be reached aboard the ''Starry Night''. The final person with the ability to remotely detonate the prowler was the captain of the ''Vanishing Point'', which was holding station two planetary orbits out from Seoba. At that distance, it would take nearly an hour for the request to be sent to the cruiser and for the return signal to arrive. By then, the Covenant might already have retrieved sensitive data from the wrecked prowler. Crowther began to reluctantly order the Spartans to prevent the ''Starry Night''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s capture, but John cut him off, assuring him that they would not fail. The Spartan requested that Task Force Yama assist them by keeping the assaulting corvettes off their backs. Nyeto began to say that their prowlers were not designed for ship-to-ship combat when Crowther interrupted him, promising that they would find a way. Crowther started to tell John to standby for instructions on how to manually activate the prowler's self-destruct, but he reassured the colonel that his Spartans already knew how to activate a [[Fury tactical nuclear weapon|Fury nuke]].{{Ref/Reuse|HSS14}}
| |
| | |
| Before this discussion came to an end, a Covenant [[Karo'etba-pattern Ghost|Ghost]] appeared out of the fog and began firing at John, who managed to kill its [[Jiralhanae]] driver with his [[MA5B assault rifle|MA5B]]'s [[M301 grenade launcher|underbarrel grenade launcher]]. Shortly after that was handled, he noticed more Ghosts entering the quarry, so John ordered Green and Gold Teams to deal with them as Blue Team went to handle the prowler. At this point, the looming intrusion corvette had begun deploying EVA-equipped [[Sangheili]], Jiralhanae, and [[Kig-Yar]] warriors via its gravity lift, with the first already looking for a way inside the ship. Another corvette crested the edge of the quarry, firing its main cannon on the Spartans. With the situation quickly deteriorating and Nyeto's support still setting up, John realized that immediate action was necessary. While Malcolm and the others were still dealing with the Ghosts, John ordered Blue Team to simultaneously fire on the avalanche just below the ''Starry Night'' with their grenade launchers to cause the vessel to fall to quarry floor and prevent the Covenant from gaining entrance. Despite Fred and Kelly's warnings that such an action could bring the whole slope down on top of them, each member of the team acknowledged and followed his order. As they has feared, the volley of [[grenade]]s worked a bit too well, bringing the avalanche down on top of all twelve Spartans, but successfully delaying the Covenant in their boarding attempt.{{Ref/Reuse|HSS14}}
| |
| | |
| Malcolm and five others managed to escape being swept up by the avalanche, but the remaining six Spartans were not so lucky. They became buried under the ice, with Malcolm's teammate, Solomon-069, becoming completely incapacitated. John-117 was among those buried, but not totally immobilized. While he worked on freeing himself, John gave Fred command of the mission to board and destroy the ''Starry Night''. Fred gathered Malcolm and [[Linda-058]] to board the prowler as members of Green and Gold Teams coordinated attacks on the seemingly endless stream of enemy ground vehicles, supported by at least three Covenant corvettes. Malcolm, Fred, and Linda boarded the ''Starry Night'' via a massive breach in its bow, finding five survivors of the crash: four ODSTs and Staff Sergeant Johnson, who had received a bad concussion. Linda got to work manually arming the prowler's Fury tactical nuclear weapon as Fred reported the situation to John, who told Linda to take her time, but warned of an enemy squad preparing to board. Acknowledging this information, Fred told him that once the nuke was armed, they would flee in the prowler's escape pod. Hearing that a team of Covenant boarders was inbound, Johnson requested his assignment. Fred had him "guard" the escape pod to keep him out of harm's way. In his disoriented state, Johnson eagerly accepted the mission, but required some help from Malcolm to find the pod. Meanwhile, Nyeto's support finally arrived the form of strafing runs that destroyed two of the intrusion corvettes assaulting Green and Gold Teams. Just as the nuke was finished arming, the looming Covenant corvette finally made its move and began lifting the ''Starry Night'' up into its hold using its [[gravity lift]]. John ordered Fred's team to activate the nuke and flee from the prowler with the survivors, relaying the situation to the rest of the Spartans. Malcolm and the others boarded the prowler's escape pod and launched through Seoba's low gravity while under fire from the corvette's surprised gunners. Upon detonation, the nuke destroyed both the prowler and the Covenant vessel above. All of the Spartans made it to safety and Colonel Crowther had them extracted after the nuke's [[electromagnetic pulse]] had dissipated.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS15|HSS|Chapter=15}} Some of them also assisted in the recovery of a Covenant [[Kelguid|starholo]] from the wreckage of the intrusion corvette. The Spartans were transported back to the ''Vanishing Point'' along with the starholo.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS16|HSS|Chapter=16}}

| | |
| On [[2526#March|March 20]], John-117 and five other Spartans who were not confined to the infirmary attended a funeral service for the two-hundred-and-three men and women who lost their lives at Seoba. Held in the command hangar of the ''Vanishing Point'' as it sat in a high parabolic orbit around Biko, the ceremony included an honor company of a hundred-and-one enlisted personnel in their dress blues, including the six Spartans and Avery Johnson. After the service, Lieutenant Commander Nyeto—the de facto commander of Task Force Yama after Ascot's death—approached John, who asked if he'd reconsider sidelining them. Nyeto promised that the Spartans would be seeing all the action they could handle for the rest of the operation. However, Crowther again contested this on the basis of them being too young, forcing the lieutenant commander to back down by threatening him with a report to a UNSC board of inquiry. The Black Daggers would board the [[Fleet of Inexorable Obedience|incoming fleet]] alone. As everyone left the hangar, Crowther revealed to Johnson that he did not trust Nyeto. He believed that the Spartans were combat-ready, and he was instead sending them on a mission to disrupt Covenant supply lines at [[Etalan]].{{Ref/Reuse|HSS16}}

| |
| {{Main|Battle over Etalan}}
| |
| Later that day, Malcolm-059, the other Spartans, Staff Sergeant Johnson, and Dr. Halsey left the [[Kolaqoa system]] aboard the ''Vanishing Point'', with two prowlers serving as escort. On [[2526#March|March 22]], the three ships dropped out of [[slipspace]] near Etalan and the ''Vanishing Point''{{'}}s analysts spent the next four days observing the logistics fleet's movements, trying to discern which vessels should be their primary targets. By [[2526#March|March 26]], they felt confident that four of the fleet's fifteen vessels were equipment [[freighter]]s that carried spare parts and other materials used to keep the Fleet of Inexorable Obedience operational. At this point, the logistics fleet was seemingly preparing to break from orbit, evidenced by the fact that they had begun syncing their orbits and bringing their [[fusion reactor]]s to full power. As time was running out, Malcolm, the rest of Green Team, and Gold Team were deployed in four [[S-14 Baselard]]s with orders to destroy the equipment freighters while Blue Team stayed on the ''Vanishing Point'' and prepared for their phase of the attack. The Spartans' Baselards flew at the center of a formation of twenty total Baselards, and the plan was for the squadron to pierce through the logistics vessels' fighter screen of Banshees and [[Seraph]]s. Then, the eight Spartans would go [[Extra-vehicular activity|EV]] after faking the destruction of their Baselards. To camouflage their approach, their fighters were equipped with pods of chain-linked debris that would deploy upon the crafts' destruction. The Spartans would then board the target vessels and plant HAVOK nukes before fleeing. Due to the high risk involved with performing such maneuvers, both teams were given strict orders to abort the mission if it became apparent that they would not reach their targets safely.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS19|HSS|Chapter=19}}
| |
| | |
| Shortly after Blue Team joined the fray in their captured Banshees and managed to infiltrate a formation of Covenant fighters, Green Team ejected from their Baselards and Gold Team did likewise. In pairs, the eight Spartans successfully boarded the four equipment freighters, planted their nukes, and fled before they detonated. The fourth freighter detonation [[Electromagnetic pulse|disabled]] the formation that Blue Team had infiltrated, forcing them to go abandon their Banshees. Afterwards, when the prowler escorts moved in to extract Green and Gold Teams from orbit over Etalan, their retrieval created an unintentional diversion that drew attention away from Blue Team as they destroyed the logistics fleet’s "[[Bladder ship|air-skimmers]]".{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS20|HSS|Chapter=20}}

| During the [[Fall of Reach]] on [[2552#August|August 30, 2552]], Malcolm was assigned to [[Red Team]] under the command of [[Senior Chief Petty Officer]] [[Frederic-104]]. While ''en route'' to the surface of [[Reach]], Red Team's [[D77-TC Pelican|Pelican]], ''[[Bravo 001]]'', was depressurized by pursuing [[Seraph]]s and its pilot, [[Mitchell]], was killed. Red Team was forced to perform a high-altitude jump to the surface of the planet. Malcolm, along with three other SPARTANs, was killed on impact with the ground.
