==The battle==

The battle began with the ''[[Infinite Spoils]]'', a [[Kig-Yar raider]] commanded by four [[Sangheili]] [[Sangheili Zealot|zealots]], attacking [[the Rubble]]. [[Thel 'Vadam]]ee hoped to destroy the Rubble in order to complete his mission and regain the honor he lost when he was captured by the [[Kig-Yar]].<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 188''</ref> He had the ship attack the local [[mass driver]]s, recognizing them as important weapons. While the ''Infinite Spoils'' attacked, the first ships of the Kig-Yar fleet arrived and began attacking the Rubble themselves. As Kig-Yar ships closed in on the mass drivers, Rubble ships flew in and fired missiles to prevent the destruction of the mass drivers. Meanwhile, more and more asteroids emptied as the thousands of citizens of the Rubble evacuated. Although the [[AI]] [[Juliana]] lost some asteroids to both the Sangheili and Kig-Yar, she managed to move several more asteroids to meet with the UNSC forces moving in on Metisette.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 308''</ref>

As it closed down on the moon, the {{UNSCShip|Midsummer Night}} performed a high-speed [[Single Occupant Exoatmospheric Insertion Vehicle|SOEIV]] deployment, down to [[the Redoubt]] on the surface of Metisette. The ''Midsummer Night'' came under fire from Kig-Yar [[Covenant anti-aircraft battery|anti-aircraft guns]], and slowed down, to allow the pods to drop, before speeding off out the atmosphere again.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 312''</ref> The pods landed in the Redoubt's plaza, where [[Unggoy]] were waiting in buildings. There were two main forces of [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper|ODSTs]] that landed; one with [[Jai-006]], and one with [[Adriana-111]].
