Template:Triple battle infobox The Battle of the Citadel was a battle between the UNSC/Separatist Alliance, the Covenant Loyalists and the Flood [1]. It was one of the last major battles to be fought in the Human-Covenant War.

The Battle

In the Battle of the Citadel, a force of Pelicans and Phantoms move in to take down the barrier protecting The Prophet of Truth. After Sierra-117 took down his portion of the barrier and The Arbiter took down his, Avery Johnson was captured by Covenant Forces and taken to the citadel. A force of a Scorpion Tank, a Warthog, and a Mongoose proceeded to blast through the Covenant Loyalist defenses to the citadel, eventually encountering two Scarabs. The UNSC sent support, featuring two Hornets to take down the Scarabs. After John-117 destroys the two walkers, the Arbiter meets up with him and 343 Guilty Spark, and they walk into the Citadel. At the same time, Miranda Keyes stages a one-man assault on Truth and his body guards, trying in vain to rescue Avery Johnson before being killed herself.
