During the Unggoy Rebellion, the Covenant finds a Forerunner structure on the surface of a desert planet. The Unggoy catch wind of this and head for the structure when they hear that a large number of Kig-Yar are their. Brutes also guard the structure and command Jackal forces on the planet. The Grunts touchdown on the planet with the intention of capturing the structure from the Covenant. Grunts wielding Fuel Rod Cannons take position on the outside of the structure, some on a cliffside and others along a large wall. Brutes on Choppers ride along the sands, hearing warnings that Grunt insurgents are nearby. The Heavy Grunts begin to fire on the Brutes, destroying two Choppers. One of the Grunts fires to wildly and runs out of ammunition and is forced to take up a Brute Spiker. Eight squads of Unggoy make their wat to the structure, recieving cover fire from Heavy Grunts. A Grunt Ultra named Kakaz leads the Unggoy with fearce bravery. Him and his troops fight through wave after wave of Jackal while fighting their way up the ramp that leads the structures main entrance. Four Brute Minors stand at the door waiting for Kakaz and his troops to make it up the ramp. Kakaz suspects as much and just before completely clearing the ramp, he orders his troops to throw plasma grenades as far as they could. Most of the grenades land at the Brutes feet while a few actually stick the Brutes. After a few seconds, a quick series of loud blasts sounds and a Brute is seen in the air for a quick moment. The Grunts make their way into the Forerunner structure and prepare for a fight.

Once entering, they are immediately stormed by Jackals. Kakaz and his men are no pushovers and blast through the small team of Jackals easily. The Unggoy shoots down a small swarm of Drones aswell and blows a Brute pack apart with plasma grenades. Another group of Unggoy dropships appears, six Phantoms carrying a total of 48 Grunts drops troops near and around the Forerunner structure. A few Unggoy with plasma turrets goes inside of the structure, setting up the turrets to face the door in case anyone tries to enter. Most of the others enter with plasma pistols and plasma rifles. The remainder stay outside to hold off Covenant vehicles with their Fuel Rod weapons. Inside, their is still a significant Covenant force though most of them remaining are Jackals. A large fire fight between the Unggoy and Kig-Yar takes place, something that Kakaz has been waiting for. At the end of the fight, there are33 Kig-Yar deaths, nineteen Unggoy deaths, and twenty injured Unggoy including Kakaz who takes a charged plasma bolt to the chest. While the injured Unggoy patch themselves up, the remainder starts to build a defense. Plasma turrets are placed in nearly every doorwat aswell as Auto Turrets. Grunts man the turrets and guard the area while Kakaz and a few others explore the depths of the structure. They watch as Sentinels hover through the air and gas tanks move on conveyor belts. After looking through the structure, Kakaz gets an idea.

More Grunts have made it to the structure now as it falls completely under Unggoy control. Covenant forces are not far behind as nine Covenant Phantoms carrying a total of 36 Brutes including a War Chieftain prepares to drop its load just a few minutes later. Heavy Grunts fire on the incoming enemy, destroying two of the nin Phantoms. The remainder of the Brutes makes it to the ground and moves toward the Forerunner structure. The Heavy Grunts manage to warn Kakaz of the incoming danger. At the structures ramp, an aut turret is active and manages to scorch through seven of the Brutes before the War Chieftan destroys it. The Brutes advance quickly but are immediately halted once a very disturbing message is recieved. Kakaz sends a transmission to the War Chieftain claiming to have learned the Sacred Icon's location. Kakaz says that he will not inform the Covenant of the location until the Kig-Yar is dealt with. This, of course, is a bluff as Kakaz could'nt possibly know where the Index was. Some of the Brutes suspected this much but the War Chieftain refused to take any chances. He called off the attack and prepared contact the Prophets. Now that his attack had the council's attention, he planned to negotiate the end of the rebellion and cause the termination of the Kig-Yar. Unfortunately for Kakaz, the Prophets are not those who would dare negotiate with Grunts and ordered a large attack on the Unggoy insurgency.

Within a half an hour, Phantoms loom over the structure. The Heavy Grunts fire on the Phantoms but ultimately run out of ammo and are forced to take refuge inside. More defenses are placed in the form of Deployable Cover and Plasma Mines. Instead of Brutes coming in to deal with the Grunts, a force of Sangheili moves in for the kill. A few are killed but ultimately, they break the Grunt defense. Nearly all are killed except for a few who managed to escape and Kakaz himself. Kakaz is captured and taken to High Charity where he is brought before the council. After questioning of the Sacred Icon, Kakaz is taken to a torture chamber where he later dies. The Grunts who managed to escape hear of Kakaz's death and begin to plan another attack.
