In the system there is a [[Fleet of Particular Justice|host]] of [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] Ships, who notice the lone ship. A [[Prophet]] forbids the fleet to fire on the ''Pillar of Autumn'', for fear of damaging the ring. Instead, the Covenant are willing to sacrifice more lives in order to board and capture the ship rather than blasting the ship to pieces. As a result of this, the ''Pillar of Autumn'' and her crew are able to destroy four Covenant ships, but not without being further crippled from the Covenant onslaught. Meanwhile, technicians on the ''Autumn'' are preparing for battle and thawing out a single soldier from cryogenic sleep, presumably the last [[SPARTAN-II]] known as the [[SPARTAN-117|Master Chief]].

The Covenant proceed to take out the'' Autumn's ''defenses and board the ship. Deprived of defensive options, the'' Autumn's ''captain, [[Jacob Keyes]], initiates the [[Cole Protocol]] and tells the crew to abandon the ship. The Master Chief is entrusted with the AI [[Cortana]]; given the wealth of tactical information the [[AI]] contains, (force deployment, weapons research, and the location of Earth) Keyes cannot allow Cortana to fall into Covenant hands. ~~[6]~~ The Chief fights through the Covenant invaders, reaches the last remaining lifeboat, and heads to the surface of the ringworld known as [[Halo]]. At the same time, a special contingent of [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper]]s, or [[ODSTs]], leave the ''Autumn'' via [[Human Entry Vehicles]]. On the ground, the ODST Commander, [[Major Antonio Silva]] and his second-in-command, [[Melissa McKay]], prepare to establish a ground base from where the human forces will launch their guerrilla resistance against the Covenant. Silva is aided by a Class C Military AI named [[Wellsley]], after the Duke of Wellington, who advises them to capture a high butte.

Meanwhile, a Covenant [[Grunt]] named [[Yayap]] leads his squad into the ''Pillar of Autumn''. Extremely cautious and cowardly by nature, Yayap and his team decide to rescue a Covenant Special Operations [[Elite]] wounded by the Master Chief, rather than fight the humans. The five small aliens drag the black-armored Elite back to their craft and escape the deteriorating ''Autumn'' as it plunges towards the Ringworld's atmosphere.
