Realizing that John and Thel 'Vadam would never get there in time to stop Truth, Keyes decided to stall Truth herself. She crashed her Pelican into Truth's position, intending to stop the Array's firing and rescue Sergeant Johnson, who had been captured by Truth's forces. She exited her Pelican with an [[M90 shotgun|M90A shotgun]] and an [[M6G magnum]]. She was able to kill two Jiralhanae, and wounded (some fatally) several others but ultimately found herself outnumbered. Johnson demanded that she kill them both in order to halt Truth's plans. Keyes, unwilling to harm Johnson, hesitated. As she paused, the Prophet of Truth shot her in the back with a [[Type-25 Spiker]], killing her.{{Ref/Reuse|covenant}} | Realizing that John and Thel 'Vadam would never get there in time to stop Truth, Keyes decided to stall Truth herself.

Her death greatly disheartened and demoralized Johnson and he didn't resist when Truth used him to activate the Ark. Truth viewed Miranda's unwillingness to kill Johnson as proof that humans were weak and unable to set aside their compassion, which was why the Forerunners had left them behind. After the Master Chief and the Arbiter stopped Truth, Keyes' body was subsequently rescued from Flood infection by Johnson, who carried her into the Pelican which he used to escape the Ark's control room.{{Ref/Reuse|covenant}} It is likely that her body was taken back to Earth, and buried there. | Her death greatly disheartened and demoralized Johnson and he didn't resist when Truth used him to activate the Ark.
