"It's a strange squad. The best ones always are."
Margaret Parangosky

Kilo-Five was a highly covert intelligence unit under the supervision of Admiral Margaret Parangosky, the Director of Naval Intelligence. [1] Established in late January 2553, Kilo-Five's mission was to incite an insurrection between the various Sangheili factions left shattered after the Great Schism; one such organization were the Servants of Abiding Truth. [2] Due to the position of the civilian administration and High Command, specifically Fleet Admiral Hood, to pursue a peace treaty with Sanghelios, this unit and mission is not known to those outside the senior leadership of ONI. Kilo-Five was led in the field by Rear Admiral Serin Osman, an ONI operative, former SPARTAN-II and the "protege" of Admiral Parangosky.

During their operations, they manned the highly advanced corvette UNSC Port Stanley, refitted in the post-war months with Forerunner technology.

History

January

Weapons transactions

On multiple occasions, Kilo-Five provide arms to the leader of the Abiding Truth, Avu Med 'Telcam. They set up their meetings on the glassed colony of New Llanelli in the Brunel system. On their second meeting, Kilo-Five encountered a colonist named Tom Muir. Muir was extracted from the planet and quarantined on Port Stanley, so he couldn't discover anything about their mission. When he questioned Osman about the meetings, Serin lied and told him they were merely exchanging fallen soldiers.[3]

Exfiltration of Mike Spenser

Kilo-Five then headed to the former mining colony Reynes to relieve ONI operative Mike Spenser of his duties. Spenser was a spy who operated a UNSC listening station on the planet. He was extracted by Mal and Vaz, but not before they were involved in a brief firefight with several Kig-Yar, who were attempting to claim the team's dropship for themselves.[4]

UNSC Ariade

The UNSC Ariadne experienced reactor complications and was forced to drop out of slipspace near Venezia. Having received no assistance from the Insurrectionist-controlled colony, Ariadne sent a message to Earth asking for help. The UNSC Monte Cassino was dispatched - both to evacuate the ship's crew and to rendezvous with the Template:UNSCship for a personnel transfer. However, the reactor exploded before any help could arrive, and the Ariadne was lost with all hands. Prior to the Monte Cassino's return trip to Earth, Port Stanley transferred Mike Spenser and Tom Muir to the ship.[5]

February

Assault on Piety

In February, the Jiralhanae auxiliary ship Piety had captured a valuable Huragok and was transporting it to the Servants of the Abiding Truth. Kilo-Five learned of the Huragok's existence and intercepted the Piety. After eliminating the Jiralhanae crew and acquiring Requires Adjustment, Kilo-Five altered the ship's navigational records and planted several Kig-Yar bodies with MA5B assault rifles onboard. The ship was sent back into space and 'Telcam was later tricked into believing that the Piety had been boarded by Kig-Yar scavengers.[6]

Capture of Jul 'Mdama

During one of Kilo-Five's exchanges with 'Telcam on New Llanelli, Spartan Naomi-010 spotted a Sangheili eavesdropper named Jul 'Mdama. Using her profound strength, she subdued 'Mdama and had him incarcerated onboard Port Stanley.

Journey to Sanghelios

Serin Osman later met with Admiral Lord Terrence Hood onboard the UNSC Iceni. They, along with Corporal Vasily Beloi and Dr. Evan Phillips, were the first humans to visit Sanghelios. There, Hood and Thel 'Vadam discussed the fragile state of both species, as well as a treaty to formalize the peace. Hood invited 'Vadam to a memorial service on Earth, and in return 'Vadam invited Dr. Phillips to study Sangheili history and culture on their homeworld.[7]

Recovery of shield world survivors

Shortly after, ONI had established communications with the human survivors inside Onyx's Dyson sphere. Admiral Parangosky ordered Kilo-Five to arrest Dr. Catherine Halsey for her treacherous actions. Kilo-Five entered the shield world via dropship and detained Halsey, taking her and the other survivors aboard Port Stanley. They were taken to Earth for a debriefing at HIGHCOM Facility Bravo-6 in Sydney. Jul 'Mdama was later placed in captivity on the shield world - renamed Trevelyan - after ONI had established a local research facility.

Shore Leave

Once the Venezian threat was neutralized, Kilo-Five was granted shore leave. They dropped off Mike Spenser at Anchor 10 and before heading out to the planet Cascade, picked up a cargo of arms meant for 'Telcam from the UNSC Thatcher.[8]
