 Surviving the battle, the ''Spirit of Fire'', left without a slipspace drive, began its slow return journey to human space at sublight speeds.

-Six years after the battle, on [[2537|January 1, 2537]], the ''Spirit of Fire's'' AI, [[Serina]], awakened ship engineer [[Violeta Maldini]] to perform routine maintenance. The Pod infector came into contact with Maldini, infecting her and turning her into a [[Flood combat form|combat form]]. Suffering from the early stages of [[rampancy]], Serina locked the infected Maldini in a cryo bay, intending to study it. Over the next three days, Serina observed as the combat form eventually changed into a [[Flood carrier form|carrier form]], producing more Pod infectors. Seeking insight, Serina woke Professor Anders from cryosleep.<ref name="SHH"></ref>

 In the meantime, however, using Maldini's knowledge of the cryo-chamber codes, the Flood awakened the other crew members in the bay and infected them. After infecting Lieutenant [[Kwan]], the Flood gained knowledge of codes required to override Serina's quarantine, putting the entire ship at risk of infection.
-In the same bay, however, [[SPARTAN-II program|SPARTAN-II]] [[Jerome-092]] was awakened by a subroutine he had programmed to awaken him if Anders was awoken. Taking stock of the situation, Jerome armed himself and began fighting his way through the Flood forms.

-Eventually, only one Flood form remained. When Jerome confronted it, however, it turned out to actually be several Pod infectors riding on the back of a combat form, to conceal its numbers. In the ensuing scuffle, Serina vented out the bay they were in, causing the Flood forms to be thrown into space, while Jerome managed to hang on.
