== Early Years ==
Born on the colony world New Albany, Henry Jones was the son of Allison Jones and the planet's greatest mind, Franklin Jones. Henry would mostly be raised by his mother while his father worked in his lab for days on end. When Henry was ten years old, his mother died of a heart attack. Though his father was devastated he continued onward like Henry. 
During his teenage years, his father would come home around 2 AM and the two would discuss what they did that day over a snack. As went on, their bond eventually grew with Henry following in his father's footsteps. In 2559, Henry was able to receive a PHD in engineering and an advance knowledge of human and Sangheili biology. 
After his graduation, Henry soon began to work under his father until, he too was taken by a heart attack. However, in his will, Henry was given the title of Head of Jones Labs and ran it until 2564. The UNSC and ONI contacted him and requested that he be the head engineer on the Amber Dawn to which he obliged leaving his cousin, William to run the lab.

Jones would also work alongside Sangheili engineers to study Forerunner technology picked up along the ship's travels. 
=== Exploration to Gamma Tartarus ===
Discovering the planet in June of 2565, Jones and the led Science Team along with a team of ODSTs. Though the team didn't find anything hostile, they still made huge discoveries for a possible colonization. While the team continued onward, they discovered a small Forerunner facility. Once inside, the team soon found and were forced to fend off against promethean forces. Some scientist were killed, but Jones was not and grabbed a Promethean Scattershot and used it against the incoming crawlers. 
After the station was cleared, Jones and his team were sent back to the Amber Dawn to do research on the facility he discovered. Jones' team found another Forerunner artifact and brought it back to the ship. While the artifact was on the ship, Jones studied the artifact and realized it was almost highly similar to the . However, before the ship could leave the system, it became ground lock to another artifact. 
Jones began to attempt to find the next artifact to shut down the slipspace pillar. After around three days of research, Jones led a small team and found the artifact guarded by dozens of prometheans which they were able to clear the area and shut down the artifacts. Once the artifacts were shut down, more UNSC ships came in and picked up the team. Jones singled out several locations of promethean forces and soon the UNSC cleared out the areas and cleansed the planet of the promethean forces.

Easily boarding thanks to heavy fire from the Rio and Hammer of Dawn, Shield split up with Spartans Avery, Fisher, and Salvos attacking the core to destroy the ship while Kyle and Spartans Jones and Ford attacked the bridge and engaged ‘Vadem.
Instead of easily killing ‘Vadem, Kyle used no weapons to kill the Sangheili and almost killed him, until it was revealed that Zaz had a bomb strapped to him which could destroy the whole ship. Kyle then ordered Shield Team to retreat but the trap had sprung and the core room was locked down wit no escape and Ford and Jones became severely wounded. With all of Shield demanding that Kyle kill Zaz, he could, so Nathan Ford, using a magnum, shot Zaz in the face killing him and setting off the bomb.
