Operation RED FLAG. The event that should've ended the war. On July 19th 2552, the plan would first be conceived, and over the next few months, billions of credits, and thousands of work hours would be poured in to making it work. All they needed were bodies. With the catastrophic level of casualties that the Spartan IIs had faced in previous years, the plan had to be modified, instead of a purely S-II force, the previously established and tested ONI BLACK Teams were viewed as an alternative supplement. Nova Team was requisitioned for the operation alongside MCPO Sierra-045, and SCPO Sierra-048. The UNSC Pillar of Autumn was fully refitted and prepared for the expedition to capture a covenant prophet.
They trained, they talked, and they learned enough about each other that moments of social awkwardness and cold shoulders were no more, they became a team and despite the augmentations that only a lone duo had, they could soon work with one another seamlessly. They were ready to end the war. But the war came to them first. Reach fell. Now, random vectors into the soul sucking black have revealed a massive ring, one that the Covenant have the hots for.
With the personnel of the reconstituted Blue Team, the UNSC Pillar of Autumn, and those evacuated onto the ship as Reach fell. They're all that stands between the Covenant and the genocide of humanity.
From the sandy shores of New Mombasa, to the cold hard tombs of Installation 04. The journey to end a thirty year war will bring death, heartache, glory, and salvation. This is a story of the brave, happy few, who would journey into the depths of the void and back to give their species' future a hope. This is the Twilight of the Human-Covenant War.
