In [[2559#December|December 2559]], the UNSC created [[the Weapon]], a copy of Cortana created from one of Halsey's surviving cloned brains left over from Cortana's creation. The plan was for the Weapon to imitate Cortana in order to fool her security systems and lock down the Created leader so that [[John-117]] could transport her to the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} for deletion. However, when the ''Infinity'' arrived at [[Installation 07]] where Cortana was searching for [[Xalanyn|something]], they were [[Battle over Installation 07|ambushed]] by the [[Banished]], apparently resulting in the ''Infinity's'' destruction. Although the Weapon succeeded in locking Cortana down, the attack prevented John-117 from retrieving her. Instead, Cortana was captured by the Banished leader [[Atriox]] who attempted to use her for his own purposes. Recognizing her mistakes, Cortana sacrificed herself to blow up part of the Halo ring, destroying the [[Silent Auditorium (location)|Silent Auditorium]], herself and apparently Atriox while also stopping the Weapon from being deleted. In a final message to John-117, Cortana expressed remorse for her actions as the leader of the Created.<ref>'''[[Halo Infinite]]'''</ref> | In [[2559#December|December 2559]], the UNSC created [[the Weapon]], a copy of Cortana created from one of Halsey's surviving cloned brains left over from Cortana's creation.
