On [[2559#December|12 December, 2559]], the UNSC ''Infinity'' was [[Battle over Installation 07|ambushed]] by [[Banished]] forces upon arrival at [[Installation 07]]. As the ''Infinity'' fell to the Banished assault, [[Captain (NAVCOM)|Captain]] [[Thomas Lasky]] was evacuated from the ship, and UNSC forces were ordered to evacuate from the ship. ''Papa Tango Delta | On [[2559#December|12 December, 2559]], the UNSC ''Infinity'' was [[Battle over Installation 07|ambushed]] by [[Banished]] forces upon arrival at [[Installation 07]]. As the ''Infinity'' fell to the Banished assault, [[Captain (NAVCOM)|Captain]] [[Thomas Lasky]] was evacuated from the ship, and UNSC forces were ordered to evacuate from the ship. ''Papa Tango Delta Zero Nine'', piloted by [[First Lieutenant]] [[TJ Murphy]], left the ship with its companion lifeboat ''Echo India Bravo Zero Eight'', piloted by [[SPARTAN-IV program|SPARTAN-IV]] [[Bonita Stone]]. Murphy piloted the Bumblebee through the raging battle, following ''Echo India Bravo Zero Eight''. Both lifeboats managed to fly through a destroyed [[Banished]] [[Banished dreadnought|dreadnought]], though only ''Echo India Bravo Zero Eight'' came out unscathed. ''Papa Tango Delta Zero Nine'' was hit, losing its back section.{{Ref/Reuse|rp3}}{{Ref/Reuse|rp1}} | ||
Without its back section, ''Papa Tango Delta | Without its back section, ''Papa Tango Delta Zero Nine'' spun out of control, with the force ripping two occupants out of their harnesses. The lifeboat crash-landed on the surface of ring and was wedged inside a ravine, trapping its occupants for what would be six hours. Two occupants died upon impact, leaving five survivors: TJ Murphy, [[Lucas Browning]], [[Isaiah Cameron]], [[Robin Dimik]], and [[Kinney]]. Although the lifeboat lost its communication capabilities, Cameron was able to salvage parts from the operation console to build a makeshift antenna, which he then pushed out of a small tear on the lifeboat’s hull to broadcasting a distress call. The crew took turns broadcasting the distress call, until they were answered by [[SPARTAN-IV program|Spartan-IV]] [[Tomas Horvath]] of [[Fireteam Intrepid]].{{Ref/Reuse|rp3}} | ||
However, as Horvath made his way to the lifeboat, Installation 07 suddenly entered [[slipstream space]]. The ring's surface ripped open and flung Horvath off his feet, sending him tumbling across a plateau. Shortly after, an explosion on the ring fractured its surface. Amidst the chaos, Horvath lost contact with the lifeboat, as his tumble disabled his armor's long range communications.{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp4|RP|4}} The ring's fracture also caused the crevice to close itself around ''Papa Tango Delta | However, as Horvath made his way to the lifeboat, Installation 07 suddenly entered [[slipstream space]].

Kinney, already severely injured from the crash, was killed, while a shard of the shattered tempered glass cut into Cameron's knee. Shortly after, Spartan Stone arrived and punched into the small tear in the hull, creating a larger hole, from which she tore an opening wide enough to pull out the survivors. The remaining four survivors then joined Spartan Stone, Spartan [[Nina Kovan]], and survivors from another lifeboat.{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp5|RP|5}} Despite the numerous encounters with the Banished which would gradually diminish the size of the party, this group of survivors would go on to become a team of guerilla fighters dubbed the [[boat crew]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp21|RP|21}}{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp38|RP|38}} | ||
