Infinity arrived on Harvest as the Pelican flies to Harvest as Infinity defends them until Pelican finally lands. Master Chief, Blue Team, and new recruits: Night Raid members.

Master Chief: Rescue the Survivors and other Marines and Spartans Kelly, Linda go to West, Night Raid, Head to South, Akame, Mine, Lubbock, Head to East.
Akame: What about you, Tatsumi?
Master Chief: Fred and I will go North.
Lubbock: Okay, but you two be careful.
Master Chief: We'll do. Fred, Let's go.
Fred: Roger That, Chief.

They went to other places while Tatsumi and Fred went to the north. Meanwhile The UNSC Marines attempting to take Harvest are ordered to pull out. Sergeant Hauser and his team attempt to withdraw, but are attacked by a large amount of Covenant troops. One of the Marines is hit by a Plasma Pistol overcharge. Hauser takes cover behind a large piece of rubble.

Hauser: They finally decide to give the order to pull out and now this. Damn it, this just ain't my day.

An Elite fires a Fuel Rod at the entrenched Marines. Hauser sees the Fuel Rod coming.

Hauser: Mac, watch out!

Mac's position is hit by the Fuel Rod. Mac himself is engulfed by its explosion. Grunts advance through the rubble.

Hauser: Here they come!

The Grunts fire on the Marines' position. Drones fly in overhead, firing their Needlers. One Marine is hit through the visor. As the Marines return fire, the needles explode and the Marine's helmet rolls away.

Hauser: God damn it, it just ain't my day.

A Drone appears behind Hauser, who turns just in time to see it blasted out of the sky. Another soldier uses a shotgun to blast the remaining Drones out of the sky. The Grunt's turn their attention to the newcomer, a SPARTAN in red CQB armor, who returns fire with an assault rifle.

Hauser: What the hell?

The SPARTAN puts several of the Grunts down with the assault rifle. The supersoldier dodges an incoming Fuel Rod and kills the Ultra Elite who fired it. More drones fall to the assault rifle's fire.

Hauser: Maybe this is my day. Alright, men! Let's welcome our Chief Petty Officer with some backup!

The Drones continue to advance, but are killed by the collective fire from the Marines and the SPARTAN. One gets behind the SPARTAN, knocking the commando off a ledge. Before the Drone can deliver a fatal overcharge right to the head, Hauser finishes it off with a sniper rifle.

Hauser: And stay down.

The SPARTAN leaps back up and turns. The SPARTAN removes her helmet, revealing the herself to be Daisy-023. Hauser and his team approach her.

Hauser: How's Gamma 4?
Daisy-023: Gamma 4 is gone.
Hauser: Then that means this planet is finished.

Daisy-023: And it won't be the last, sir.
Marine: I have the main unit on the line.
Ralph-103 (COM): Rescue team will be in accordance with the order to fully disengage. Dispatching a rescue craft. All active units respond immediately.
Daisy-023: Team Gamma here. Roger that. We are completely surrounded.
Ralph-103 (COM): Copy that, Marine. We're dispatching a rescue ship to your location, but we I'm afraid we can't exactly give you curbside service. Sending co-ordinates for an extraction point. Looks like you and your men are going to have to make your own way to the...
Daisy-023: Wait a sec.
Ralph-103 (COM): What?
Daisy-023: I know that voice. Is that you?
Ralph-103 (COM): Daisy. That's you, isn't it?
Daisy-023: Ralph...

Hauser notices a bear on a string hanging from Daisy's armor. Meanwhile with Master Chief alongside with Fred fighting the Covenant as they were completely neutralized.
