When the UNSC ''Infinity'' was attacked at the [[Battle over Installation 07]], ''Papa Tango Delta Zero Nine'' was piloted by [[Lieutenant]] [[TJ Murphy]]. The lifeboat 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}}
On [[2559#December|12 December, 2559]], the UNSC ''Infinity'' fell to the [[Banished]] assault during the [[Battle over Installation 07]], and UNSC forces were ordered to evacuate from the ship. ''Papa Tango Delta Zero Nine'', piloted by [[First Lieutenant]] [[TJ Murphy]], the lifeboat 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 Zero Nine'' spun out of control, with the force ripping the last two occupants out of their harnesses. The lifeboat crash-landed on the surface of ring and was wedged inside a ravine, trapping its occupants. Two occupants died upon impact, leaving four 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 [[Tomas Horvath]].{{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.{{Ref/Novel|Id=rp4|RP|4}} Amidst the chaos, Horvath lost contact with the lifeboat, as his tumble disabled his armor's long range communications.{{Ref/Reuse|rp4}}
