In [[2558]], the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} followed the coordinates to where the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} was believed to be. When they arrived at the coordinates, they found not the ''Spirit'' but [[Shipmaster]] [[Vata 'Gajat]]'s ship, which was docked to the station. [[Daniel Clayton|Captain Daniel Clayton]] contacted ''Infinity'', revealing himself to be aligned with the [[New Colonial Alliance]]. Intending to exact revenge on [[Terrence Hood|Admiral Terrence Hood]], Clayton fired the station's main energy beam at ''Infinity''.{{Ref/Reuse|HE5}} After firing three consecutive times, the cannon overheated. NCA forces detected a team of Spartans approaching on [[OF92 Booster Frame]]s, so Clayton activated the station's point defense missile turrets. Clayton ordered 'Gajat to stop the Spartans, but 'Gajat decided to destroy ''Infinity'' instead. [[Fireteam Majestic]] and [[Sarah Palmer]] managed to avoid the missiles and boarded the station. The Spartans entered the command center and forced its crew to stand down. They then used the main cannon to destroy 'Gajat's flagship, killing him.{{Ref/Comic|Id=HE6|HE|Issue=6}}
