After he took the late captain's neural implants with him and took a [[Banshee]] to the crashed ''Pillar of Autumn'', [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper]] forces took over the ship. As seen in the novel ''[[Halo: The Flood]]'', [[Major Antonio Silva|Major Silva]] wanted to fly it back to [[Earth]], but it was destroyed by a Helljumper officer, [[First Lieutenant Melissa McKay]], who realized that they could not risk taking the ship to Earth for fear of spreading the Flood and destroying humanity; if even 1 Infection Form managed to avoid the sterilization procedure, the whole of Earth could fall. She realized that Major Silva's lust for glory was clouding his judgment as UNSC personnel were getting the cruiser ready for lift off. The Combat Form [[Wallace Jenkins|PFC Jenkins]] still had enough mental faculties left to try and stop the ship himself. When he was restrained by 2 ODSTs, however, Lieutenant McKay finally understood his intentions and in a snap-decision, severed the primary optical fibre cable that linked controls from the bridge to Engineering, thereby causing the cruiser to lose control and crash onto the surface of Halo. Her actions caused the death of all humans, Covenant and Flood onboard whilst saving the rest of humanity from potential annhilation.
