{Cutscene}

It is nighttime. Cut aircraft of the Swords of Sanghelios flying over the Csurdon Sea. They are headed for the city of Sunaion. Covenant ships are holding guard over it.

Cut to aboard a Sword Lich. Spartan Jameson Locke walks past allied Sangheili Storm to address his team.

• Locke: "Osiris. Form up."

His Spartans turn to face him.

• Locke: "Everyone ready?"

Spartan Buck stands up, carrying his helmet and assault rifle. Spartan Tanaka walks by him.

• Buck: "Actually... Tanaka, if I could ask a favor... would you say a word or two?"

Tanaka smiles and faces her team.

• Tanaka: "Come a long way together. Long way yet to go. Let's make a good jump like we meant to, and handle fools like we need to."

• Sangheili: "90 seconds to insertion point."

• Tanaka: "And may Buck buy the first round when we get back."

Buck chuckles. The Spartans put on their helmets and head for the edge of the Lich's deployment bay.

Cut to an outside view of the Lich. Allied aircraft, including Phantoms and Banshees, speed past. The Spartans and Elites gather on the edge.

• Buck: "We get through this, I'll buy the whole damn bar."

Cut to the city of Sunaion. Explosions blast across its buildings as the Swords' aircraft fly by.

Cut to a building's deck. Covenant Elites and Grunts fire at the aircraft, but are shot down by the Lich and Banshees' weapons.

Cut back to Locke on the ship.

• Locke: "Fireteam Osiris..."

More Covenant are blasted off the balconies.

• Locke: "The light is green!"

The Spartans, and the Arbiter leap off the Lich and land on a building below. They ready their weapons.

Cut to black.
