When the human forces on [[Onyx]] came under attack by [[Onyx Sentinel|Sentinels]], Gamma Company's teams Saber, [[Team Gladius|Gladius]] and [[Team Katana|Katana]] were still competing for top honors, and Ash had nearly lost it for his team by walking into a trap set up by one of the other teams. In an effort to avoid additional traps, he took his team dangerously close to [[Zone 67]] to avoid the other teams. There, the team spied what they assumed at the time to be a new kind of [[Covenant]] drone, as it was equipped with [[energy shielding|energy shields]].<ref>'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 117-119''</ref> | When the human forces on [[Onyx]] came under attack by [[Onyx Sentinel|Sentinels]], Gamma Company's teams Saber, [[Team Gladius|Gladius]] and [[Team Katana|Katana]] were still competing for top honors, and Ash had nearly lost it for his team by walking into a trap set up by one of the other teams.

They decided to investigate, and the drones engaged. Ash dispatched scouts to reconnoiter and figure out the weak spots of the drones. He and the rest of the team hurled rocks at the drones and to their surprise, the robots' shields did not activate. Curiously enough, one drone responded to Ash's [[COM]], and talked to him, first using an unknown language, then switching to [[Latin]] and finally to [[English]], calling him "[[Reclaimer]]".

However, after Ash failed to provide the proper counterresponse, the machine reclassified him and the other humans on Onyx as an "aboriginal subspecies" and targets to be neutralized. Before the Sentinel could kill Ash, however, the rest of Team Saber ambushed and destroyed the machine, saving him.<ref>'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 133''</ref> | ||

Before the 717th could evacuate, the newly | Before the 717th could evacuate, the newly elected [[President of Gao]] [[Arlo Casille]] sent [[Gao Republic]]'s military to forcefully remove the UNSC from the planet. Ash and Olivia joined Fred at the [[Portable Spartan Support Module]] in order to acquire their armor. However, Intrepid Eye had taken control of the module and attempted to suffocate Lopis inside the [[airlock]], but the Spartans were able to free the inspector and neutralize Intrepid Eye's inspection drone. Determined to prevent the support base from falling into the hands of Gao's insurgent government, Blue Team, Lopis, and Roams Alone embarked to destroy the facility with a [[HAVOK tactical nuclear weapon]], while the rest of the 717th evacuated. Pursued by [[MV-29 Wyvern]]s carrying [[Gao battle-jumpers]], the team traveled in Warthogs to the [[Well of Echoes]], below which the Forerunner support base was located, and boarded the [[D102 Owl]] [[UNSC Silent Claw|''Silent Claw'']], with [[Serin Osman|Rear Admiral Serin Osman]] waiting on board. As the Owl escaped the planet, Mark dropped the HAVOK into the Well of Echoes, destroying the Forerunner base.{{Ref/Reuse|hll}} | ||
With Intrepid Eye successfully captured, the UNSC left Gao. Fearing that Gamma Company's illegal brain mutations would cause a crippling public relations scandal were they to be discovered, Osman had Mark, Ash, and Olivia officially designated as [[killed in action]] and transferred to a classified [[Ferret]] team of which she gave command of to Lopis.<ref name="ll c28">'''Halo: Last Light''', Chapter 28, ''pages 330-333'' (Google Play edition)</ref> | With Intrepid Eye successfully captured, the UNSC left Gao.
