Miranda Keyes, commanding ''Forward Unto Dawn'', then traveled with [[Rtas 'Vadum]] and a [[Covenant Separatist|Separatist]] fleet to [[Installation 00]]. During the events of the [[Battle of Installation 00]], she landed troops and large quantities of weaponry and armor on [[The Ark]], largely to supplement [[John-117]]'s offensive in search of the [[Silent Cartographer]]. When [[John-117]] located [[Truth]] at [[The Ark]]'s [[Citadel|control room]], she dispatched several [[Pelican Dropship]]s to deactivate the shield protecting the control room.

When Sergeant Johnson was captured by Truth's forces in the course of this battle, Keyes asked the Chief how close he was to stopping Truth. Realizing that he and the Arbiter would never get there in time to stop Truth, Keyes decided to stall Truth herself. She crashed her Pelican at [[Truth]]'s position, intending to rescue Johnson. She exited her Pelican with an [[M90 Shotgun]] and two [[M6G Pistol]]s, killed a Brute and wounded several other but ultimately found herself outnumbered. Johnson requested that she kill them both in order to halt [[Truth]]'s plans. Keyes, unwilling to harm Johnson, hesitated. As she paused, the [[Prophet of Truth]] shot her in the back seven times with a [[Spiker]], fatally severing her spine. Her body was subsequently rescued from [[Flood]] infection by Johnson, who carried her into the Pelican which he used to escape [[The Ark]]'s control room. It is likely that her body was taken back to [[Earth]], and buried there. Her face is later seen in a photograph on the [[Hillside Memorial|Memorial]] to the Fallen on a hillside overlooking the [[Portal]] to [[The Ark]], near the photograph of Avery Johnson and the service number of [[Master Chief]] John-117. | ||
