Echo 216: Difference between revisions

Line 37:

During the [[Battle over Installation 07]], ''Echo-216'' was assigned to the UNSC ''[[UNSC Infinity|Infinity]]'' as part of the supercarrier's compliment of Pelican dropships. When the [[Banished]] attacked the ''Infinity'' and the [[Jiralhanae]] [[Atriox]] defeated and seemingly killed the [[Spartan]] [[John-117]], contracted civilian maintenance technician [[Fernando Esparza]] panicked at the news and stole ''216'' to escape the besieged ship. However, without a [[Slipspace drive]], the vessel was only capable of limited sublight travel; with the ''Infinity'' no longer spaceworthy and Installation 07 occupied by Banished forces, ''Echo-216'' and its sole occupant were stranded in space. Not long after the battle, Installation 07 was seriously damaged by a mysterious explosion, and ''Echo-216'' was among those dragged with the massive structure as it jumped to an unknown location, along with a majority of UNSC and Banished forces on and around the ring.

At some point around [[2560#May|May 2560]],{{Ref/Reuse|HICGP}} ''Echo 216'' was still present near [[Installation 07]], where it had been adrift in a large debris field for the past six months. Eventually, the ship drifted into a collision with John-117, and the pilot was able to use the ship's internal power source to bring the [[SPARTAN-II program|SPARTAN's]] [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN3)|MJOLNIR (GEN3)]] armor system online. The armor's [[fusion reactor]] in turn almost instantly recharged the Pelican's depleted batteries, restoring functioning to ''Echo 216's'' internal lights and systems. Following this event, an attack generated electrical discharges throughout the Pelican, and enveloped it in a bright light. The pilot sealed himself in the Pelican's cockpit while John-117 opened the troop bay's external door so that he could go on the offensive.{{Ref/Reuse|DH}} John-117, discovering the attack to come from the [[Banished dreadnought]] ''[[Ghost of Gbraakon]]'' attempting to capture ''Echo-216'' for salvage, boarded the vessel and sabotaged its engines, freeing ''216'' and causing the dreadnought to plummet to the ring's surface. John-117 then had Fernando take ''Echo-216'' to a sublevel of the damaged Installation, where Fernando momentarily lost contact with the SPARTAN-II. When John-117's signal was re-acquired near the wreckage of the {{UNSCShip|Mortal Reverie}}, ''Echo-216'' flew in to extract him, Fernando in the process learning that John-117 had recovered [[the Weapon]] to continue the mission to locate Cortana and link up with the scattered UNSC personnel on the ring.
