As the Prophet of Truth left ''High Charity'' aboard the [[Forerunner Dreadnought]], the fleet descended into chaos. Ships moved on random vectors, barely avoiding collisions, while the [[Jiralhanae]] and [[Sangheili]]-controlled ships began to engage one another over ''High Charity''.<ref>'''Halo 2''', campaign level ''[[Gravemind (level)|Gravemind]]''</ref> At the same time other ships were trying to keep [[the Flood]] from escaping Installation 05. Some of the ships became infected by the Flood and many were destroyed, some sacrificing themselves to save the others. At least one, the cruiser ''[[Incorruptible]]'', escaped the fight, but was pursued by three Jiralhanae-controlled frigates. | As the Prophet of Truth left ''High Charity'' aboard the [[Forerunner Dreadnought]], the fleet descended into chaos.

The rest of the fleet continued to fight itself and the Flood, until the Sangheili, under command of [[Shipmaster]] [[Rtas 'Vadum]]ee managed to defeat the Jiralhanae. The Sangheili ships then formed a blockade to prevent the Flood-infested ships from escaping, and glassed the surface of [[Installation 05]] to prevent it the escape of further Flood forces. One [[Unidentified Flood-captured battlecruiser|ship]], however, broke through the Sangheili lines and performed a [[slipspace]] jump to [[Earth]].<ref>'''[[Halo 3]]''', campaign level ''[[Floodgate]]''</ref> | The rest of the fleet continued to fight itself and the Flood, until the Sangheili, under command of [[Shipmaster]] [[Rtas 'Vadum]]ee managed to defeat the Jiralhanae.
