If there was any way to make Six's death scene any more obvious without straight-up showing it and ruining the mood of the Lone Wolf ending, I don't think anyone has discovered it yet. Realism and near-infinite possibilities be damned, the bottom line is that Six is clearly intended to be shown to be killed there. For those who think otherwise, if you're perceptive enough to write decent fanfictions here, then I should think you're intelligent enough to see it as it is. You can come up with the most likely survival scenario there is and it still wouldn't change the fact that you're ruining the point of Halo: Reach. It's something I personally wouldn't do, but you're all entitled to your own decisions.
