The surprise attack went well; the SpecOps forces were able to infiltrate the facility and pursue the Heretic Leader, even destroying the Heretic Air Force along the way.<ref>[[Halo 2]], level [[The Arbiter (Level)|The Arbiter]]</ref> But complications arose when the Flood were released from their restraints by the Heretics,<ref>[[Halo 2]], level [[The Oracle (Level)|The Oracle]]</ref> and overran the entire facility. The Flood multiplied quickly, infecting and killing most of the Heretic forces, making it difficult for the SpecOps Elites to secure the facility. The Heretic leader locked himself in the inner section of the mine, safe from both the Flood and an approaching storm. But the Arbiter responded by cutting the cables holding the mine up, sending it in a free-fall. This forced the Heretic Leader to escape his hidout and attempt to evacuate aboard a Covenant [[Seraph]] fighter, but the Arbiter caught up to him and killed him. Shortly thereafter, [[Tartarus]] appeared in a [[Phantom]], and he, the Arbiter, the SpecOps Elites, and 343 Guilty Spark escaped the mine before it fell into Threshold's inner atmosphere, where it was destroyed.<ref>[[Halo 2]], level [[The Oracle (Level)|The Oracle]]</ref> | The surprise attack went well; the SpecOps forces were able to infiltrate the facility and pursue the Heretic Leader, even destroying the Heretic Air Force along the way.<ref>[[Halo 2]], level [[The Arbiter (Level)|The Arbiter]]</ref> But complications arose when the Flood were released from their restraints by the Heretics,<ref>[[Halo 2]], level [[The Oracle (Level)|The Oracle]]</ref> and overran the entire facility.
