Several CCS-class Battlecruisers immediately engaged the Spartans with [[Pulse laser turret]]s, and a large inter-fleet skirmish began. The Spartans engaged and planted a scanning device on one of the ship's hull. The first scan detected a signal matching the cryo-pod's from a cruiser. | ||
Solomon-069 and Kelly-087 immediately vectored toward the target. The pair arrived as the cruiser was launching [[Seraph-class Starfighter|fighters]]. Kelly-087 advised waiting for the other Spartans, but Solomon-069 sought to board the ship while the shields were down. Kelly-087 held the shuttle bay while Solomon-069 landed and proceeded on foot. Upon arrival at the signal's location however, Solomon-069 was met with one of the decoys - an [[Antimatter Charge]]. The charge detonated, and Solomon was instantly vaporized, along the entire cruiser. John-117 thought it suspicious the scan had returned a positive match so easily but arrived only in time to warn and save Kelly-087. With scans now returning multiple decoy signatures, John-117 deduced Halsey was on the fleet's flagship. | Solomon-069 and Kelly-087 immediately vectored toward the target.
