User:Tayd0gta/First battle of Fracture

The First battle of Fracture was the first battle fought by species from the Milky Way Galaxy in Fracture, a mysterious galaxy that appeared outside the Milky Way.

Events and Cause
When the Covenant Remnant(Fracture) ( or Seperatists) decided to go to Fracture one of there investigation fleets did a slipspace jump to an unkown planet later known as Sangheilius, and stayed in orbit for exactly a day until one investigation fleet from the United Nations Space Core did a jump to the same location. The UNSC fleet known as the Keyes Group was named after Captain Keyes, and was led by the UNSC Jacob Keyes, and the Covenant fleet was rather small for the Covenant, but still very large, and was known as the fleet of Holy Clarity. The UNSC tried to radio them and to tell them about how they wanted the same thing:answers, but the Covenant Remnant gave no answers to the message and charged straight for the UNSC fleet, it was war then... the fleet opened fire. As soon as the UNSC Infinity started fighting it was severly damaged as the Covenant learned the weaknesses of Infinity-class ships, and used a conentrated planetary glass beam and had it disabled for the rest of the battle. Soon the Covenant ships were winning the fight with one loss and 25 kills of the 46 UNSC ships in that fleet, and then the order was given out for MAC guns to fire, all MAC guns were fired, most Covenant ship's sheilds were down and they started taking more hits. The UNSC lost 15 more ships, they had 21 ships left, they were losing. Soon the fleet was all but obliterated, the last 2 Marathon class cruisers, the UNSC Salt Lake and the UNSC Uno Potencia, decided to cover the UNSC Jacob Keyes as it had just regained power, and were destroyed right as the Jacob Keyes went into slipspace to an unkown part of the Fracture galaxy. After the battle Sangheilius remains mostly dormant with the fleet of Holy Clarity assigned to guard it, but now after the battle, they now know this isn't just an investigations mission anymore, both factions send more warships to explore Fracture.
