===Insurrection===
In the first years of the 26th century Bellicose was thrice engaged by commanded by the legendary Preston Cole, escaping twice and on the last occasion fighting to a draw. On January 2, 2504 the ship's crew faked their own deaths by falling into the gravity well of a gas giant during the Battle of Theta Ursae Majoris System, and escaped by executing the first-known in-atmosphere slipspace transition. 
===Human-Covenant war===
In early 2526, Bellicose, while in the Little Nelek Nebula of the Grenadi Sector, would serve as a meeting place for the United Rebel Front.
Bellicose would resurface years later, and, when under an independent flag, she was present for the battles of 18 Scorpii and Psi Serpentis during the Human-Covenant war.
