At the ball Maloy sees Trevor Argyle talking to General Marvaise, the supreme commander of the [[Freedom Theater]]. She retreats to the bathroom to avoid Argyle (who might recognize her), and shortly afterwards spots Marvaise going upstairs with a man she identifies as Konrad Guntermann from photos she saw on Galatea. Trying to eavesdrop on them, she overhears almost nothing besides a mentioning of "Hades" but is apprehended by Argyle. After a brief interrogation Marvaise orders her executed, but Argyle just knocks her out, ties her up and stows her into a cabinet. Saladin, after noting that Marvaise has left and seeing Argyle come down the stairs alone, suspects what happened and frees Maloy. The determine that the nuclear device must be parked in the underground garage in Marvaise's limousine which they proceed to steal. They pick up Shin and Parker, and while the car is chased by police cars, hovercraft and finally a ''[[Locust]]'' Parker frantically tries to disarm the bomb which is set to detonate within minutes. He succeeds and throws the detonator out of the car as they are racing through a shopping mall to shake off the ''Locust''.

The protagonists escape from Tharkad aboard the ''Niflheim'' and, following the lead from Marvaise's conversation with Guntermann, move to Hades, an exhausted mining world in the [[Phalan]] system, to find the remaining three nuclear devices. Guntermann has bought a large abandoned industrial complex on the desolate world, obviously the terrorists' headquarters which is in the process of being relocated. By reactivating an ancient underground rail line, the protagonists manage to sneak the ''Mad Cat'' deep into the secured perimeter, blast through a wall and snatch away the three bombs just as they were prepared for transportation off-world. On their way back they are nearly overcome by enemy BattleMechs, only to have Lyran regular 'Mechs arrive on the scene. The battle turns three-sided when [[ComStar]] BattleMechs are suddenly combat-dropped into the fray and extract the bombs. As it turns out, Saladin is a ComStar agent, as was Craighton.

Maloy is later offered to rejoin the LAAF for her part in what happened, but she turns down the offer to stay mercenary together with Shin and Parker. On 22 December, Saladin sends them a message, offering OmniMech spare parts and good pay. They decide to work for him, but cannot agree on a unit name.
