After the Barrier Towers were deactivated, the [[Assault Carrier]] [[Shadow of Intent]] moved over the Citadel and attempted to destroy it. This was interrupted by the Flood-controlled [[High Charity]] suddenly appearing out of slipspace and raining debris on the area, severely damaging the Shadow of Intent. The UNSC then launched an assault on the Citadel, with one [[M808B Scorpion Tank]], multiple [[Warthog|M12 Warthog LAAV]]s, one [[Mongoose]], and multiple [[Hornet]] VTOLs, and a [[Pelican Dropship]]. However, the [[Covenant Loyalists]] defended the Citadel, landing a pair of [[Scarab]]s by an atmospheric landing, and supplemented it with one [[Wraith]] tank and a handful of [[Ghost]] and [[Prowler]] attack vehicles.

However, in the Ring Room of the Citadel, Truth was readying to activate the Halos, and a [[Brute Chieftain]] torturing the captive Johnson. When SPARTAN-117 radioed that he was too far from Truth to prevent him from activating the Halos, [[Commander]] [[Miranda Keyes]] boldly took a [[Pelican Dropship]] and crashed it into the Citadel, landing in the midst of Truth, his attendant Brutes, and Johnson. Keyes opened fire on the Brutes, killing one and injuring another before she realized that the situation was hopeless: she could not engage dozens of Brutes, then kill Truth, and then rescue Johnson. She aimed her Magnum at Johnson, offering to kill him in a ''coup de grace'', until Truth rose and shot her several times in the back with a [[Spiker]], killing Miranda Keyes. Truth then forced Johnson's hand onto the control panel, activating the Halos. | However, in the Ring Room of the Citadel, Truth was readying to activate the Halos, and a [[Brute Chieftain]] torturing the captive Johnson.
