The duo manage to escape from the Citadel via an access tunnel near the elevator they used earlier. John-117 then experiences a hallucination of Cortana and follows the figure to a control panel. He then activates the panel, finally learning Cortana's plan: the Ark is manufacturing a [[Installation 04B|replacement Halo]] after the destruction of the previous one. Knowing that the threat of the Flood is undeniably apocalyptic, and that the new ring is unconnected to the rest of the Array, John-117 decides he will activate the new Halo. Needing an Index in order to fire the ring, SPARTAN-117 journeys into the crashed High Charity to retrieve Cortana, keeping his [[High Charity (level)|promise]] and knowing that she still has the Index she acquired from the original [[Installation 04]]. Once retrieved, Cortana instructs the SPARTAN to overload ''High Charity''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s engines in order to destroy the Gravemind. Thel 'Vadam arrives via Banshee to assist the SPARTAN in fighting the Flood. The two escape from ''High Charity'' before it explodes using a damaged but still flyable Pelican. | The duo manage to escape from the Citadel via an access tunnel near the elevator they used earlier.

The surviving Sangheili and UNSC personnel return to Earth, leaving only Sergeant Johnson, John-117 with Cortana and the Arbiter to make their way to the new Halo. As they make their way to the new Halo's Control Room, Flood forms arrive via [[Flood Drop Pods|Flood Dispersal Pods]] to prevent the activation of the Halo. From here, they quickly discover that [[Gravemind]] is attempting to reconstruct itself on the new Halo. As Sergeant Johnson tries to activate the ring, [[343 Guilty Spark]] fires his defensive laser at him after realizing that it will destroy the installation and the Ark. The Monitor then turns against the SPARTAN and blasts the Arbiter out of the Control Room, leaving the SPARTAN to destroy Guilty Spark by himself. John-117 successfully destroys the Monitor with the [[Spartan Laser]] and tries to mend Johnson. Mortally wounded, Johnson urged the SPARTAN to send him out "with a bang" | The surviving Sangheili and UNSC personnel return to Earth, leaving only Sergeant Johnson, John-117 with Cortana and the Arbiter to make their way to the new Halo.

With the Halo activated, John-117 and Thel 'Vadam race towards the frigate ''Forward Unto Dawn'' using Johnson's Warthog. With no time to reach the cockpit, John-117 uploads Cortana into the frigate to start taking off before the Arbiter is able to take the controls. The front half of the ''Dawn'', containing the Arbiter, makes it through the portal. However, as Halo shakes itself to pieces during its firing sequence and damages the Ark, the portal deactivates as the other half of the ''Dawn'' containing Chief and Cortana enter it. This causes them to rip off from the other half of the ship and be sent to an unknown area of space far enough from the Halo's blast. However, since they didn't come out of the other side of the portal, they never make it back to Earth. | With the Halo activated, John-117 and Thel 'Vadam race towards the frigate ''Forward Unto Dawn'' using Johnson's Warthog.

Back on Earth, Lord Hood holds a memorial service in honor for those who died in the [[Human-Covenant War]], with the Arbiter and many Marines in attendance. With Truth dead, the Covenant defeated, and the Flood wiped out, the long and devastating war is finally over. Though he says he can never forgive the Arbiter for what the Covenant did to the human race, Lord Hood sincerely thanks him for standing by the Master Chief until the end. After the service, the Covenant Separatists return to their [[Sanghelios|home planet]]. | Back on Earth, Lord Hood holds a memorial service in honor for those who died in the [[Human-Covenant War]], with the Arbiter and many Marines in attendance.

After the credits, it is revealed that John-117 and Cortana are still alive aboard the rear section of the ''[[Forward Unto Dawn|Dawn]]'', which had apparently torn off before going through the other side of the portal. The SPARTAN floats to a [[cryo-chamber]] and as he climbs in, Cortana comments "''I'll miss you.''" He replies "''Wake me, when you need me''" | After the credits, it is revealed that John-117 and Cortana are still alive aboard the rear section of the ''[[Forward Unto Dawn|Dawn]]'', which had apparently torn off before going through the other side of the portal.

If the last level is completed on Legendary difficulty, the section of ''Forward Unto Dawn'' that Cortana and the Chief are aboard is seen drifting towards an [[Legendary Planet|unknown Forerunner planet]]. | ||
