In [[2552#October|October 2552]], Nicole-458's unit was preparing for a classified mission on ''[[Nassau Station]]'' when the ONI stealth ship {{UNSCShip|Apocalypso}} tumbled into real space – being carried along in the wake of a freak [[Slipstream space|slipspace]] [[Slipspace anomaly|anomaly]]. The anomaly intersected ''Nassau Station'', creating a semi-stable "bubble" in the space-time continuum on its way back to the 21st century. For the time being, Nicole-458 is trapped in the 21st century; she guards ''Nassau Station'''s secrets with anything but lethal force, as she realizes that killing someone in the past could have dire consequences in the future. She waits for the "bubble" to collapse and hopefully return her to the year 2552. | In [[2552#October|October 2552]], Nicole-458's unit was preparing for a classified mission on ''[[Nassau Station]]'' when the ONI stealth ship {{UNSCShip|Apocalypso}} tumbled into real space – being carried along in the wake of a freak [[Slipstream space|slipspace]] [[Slipspace anomaly|anomaly]].
