As the war neared its end, most of John's fellow SPARTAN-IIs were killed in action during the [[Fall of Reach]]. However, John and his AI companion [[Cortana]] fled [[Reach]] and [[UNSC Pillar of Autumn|their vessel]] fortuitously arrived at [[Halo Array|Halo]] [[Installation 04]], a one hundred millennia-old superweapon created by the [[Forerunner]]s to destroy their parasitic enemy, the [[Flood]], by killing all life in the galaxy. After destroying the Halo, the surrounding Covenant [[Fleet of Particular Justice|fleet]], and the Flood forces on the ring, John returned to [[Earth]] and resisted the Covenant's [[Battle of Earth|impromptu invasion]]. Pursuing the [[Solemn Penance|invaders' flagship]], the Master Chief encountered [[Installation 05]], where a [[Great Schism|civil war]] soon broke out within the Covenant. Weeks later, John followed the remaining Covenant forces to [[Installation 00|the Ark]], the Halo Array's control center, which he disabled before the Halos could be fired. | As the war neared its end, most of John's fellow SPARTAN-IIs were killed in action during the [[Fall of Reach]].

During their trip back, Fred reported John, that during his time in the Keeper's tunnels he encountered [[Veta Lopis]], the ONI's [[Ferret]] team leader, with whom Fred worked on several occasions before. As a double agent within the Keepers of the One Freedom, she provided Fred intell on the Banished plans on Reach - to open a hidden underground slipspace portal, which would allow their leader, [[Atriox]], to return from the [[Installation 00|Ark]] and for the Keepers to travel there to initiate the Great Journey. Upon their return to ''Infinity'', the Spartans were met by Cpt. [[Veronica Dare]] and Dr. Halsey, whom John informed about the mission success. The team then proceeded to hangar mouth from where they observed how a huge slipspace portal above the Highland Mountains collapsed in on itself and the Banished [[Intrusion corvette|corvette]] vanished in slipspace escaping Reach just in time as the ship's sensors signaled the imminent arrival of one of Cortana's [[Guardian]]s. The next moment ''Infinity'' jumped into slipspace.{{Ref/Novel|Id=Epilogue|HSoR|Epilogue}} | During their trip back, Fred reported John, that during his time in the Keeper's tunnels he encountered [[Veta Lopis]], the ONI's [[Ferret]] team leader, with whom Fred worked on several occasions before.
