Thon, scolding his brother for speaking heresy, won't allow Reff to stain their family name, and proceeds to kill him. However, Reff has stolen Thon's [[Type-1 Energy Weapon/Sword|energy sword]] and impales his brother with it. Reff's plan to fire on the approaching Covenant fleet is interrupted by Ebullient Prism arriving at the control center, backed up by an army of [[Sentinel]]s and [[Gatherer]]s. The Monitor vaporizes Reff from the legs up with his energy beam, while Black-One regains consciousness. Three and Four then arrive at the chamber, followed by Two, and the team fight the Monitor and the Sentinels. Damaged, the Monitor flies into the firing path of the installation's main weapon, just as One activates it. The energy surging through the shaft vaporizes the Monitor as the weapon fires into space, bringing the entire Covenant fleet down on the moon's surface. | Thon, scolding his brother for speaking heresy, won't allow Reff to stain their family name, and proceeds to kill him.

After the team makes their way back to the installation's entrance, Iona scans the wreckage and discovers that they may be able to use one of the crashed ships to escape. It is also revealed that the Monitor made Black-Two's wounds look far worse than they actually were and all damage was fixed by [[biofoam]]. Before they proceed out of the structure, Iona informs that there are still over a hundred live Covenant outside. While she suggests they wait for them to die of asphyxiation or injuries, the team storms out to engage them, with Black-Three declaring the odds to be "almost fair" for the Covenant. | After the team makes their way back to the installation's entrance, Iona scans the wreckage and discovers that they may be able to use one of the crashed ships to escape.
