Her unit secured the way for the main body, but quickly they found heavy opposition, but quickly began suffering losses. Even Maeve's 'Mech was downed, and she barely had time to get out before being crushed. She reunites with another member of her lance and they hid, awaiting for rescue. +
− Soon after, both have been rescued and were on their [[DropShip]]. Maeve's colonel congratulates her for having saved all her lance's members, but she was devastated for the losses, especially for her family 'Mech.
