The Battle
The Battle of Voi was an UNSC operation to keep the Prophet of Truth from activating the Ark. Spartan-117's mission was to clear out the Anti-Air Wraiths around Voi so that Fleet Admiral Hood could launch a low-level strike on what was the supposed Ark. It continued when a Flood Ship Sliped in. The Battle was won by UNSC forces due to the Portal opening and the subsequent arrival of the flood. The battle concluded with Covenant Separatist Ships glassing East Africa.
Beginning
When the Prophet of Truth smashed throguh Earth's space bound defences and began to land his forces on Earth, eradication of the human race was a secondary objective, as a result, when they occupied Voi, pockets of Marine forces still existed within it. There had been counter attacks before the start of the battle, resulting in heavy casualties and the patches of Marine defenders were hard pressed.
Sierra 117 Arrives
After his battle to fight his way up the Tsavo Highway, Master Chief not only secured the gate to Voi but also a landing zone for Commander Keyes to deploy her Marines. Mounting up with a group of Warthogs, he rode shotgun through the gates to the outside of the Traxus facility where previous Marine counter attacks had failed. Ten marines dismounted from the Transport Warthogs along with the Chief and then a few remained to operating their Warthog LRV to give them heavy support. The Traxus facility composed of several areas, each sealed off by a bulk head to allow and deny movement between the areas. after initially infiltrating the facility the first gate was opened, interuppting a File of Jackals and Grunts during one of Truth's speeches. They were taken by surprise and quickly gunned down. After quickly hammering through another File of grunts Chief opened the second grunt, opened the warthog to a long tunnel heading down the facility. A large group of Grunts, Jackals and a single Brute Captain guarded the end of the corridor, along with their reserve [[|Type-32 Rapid Assault Vehicle|Ghost RAVs]]. After the combined arms of the Chief, the Warthog and the Marines defeated the defenders they finally broke through to their first objective.
