According to Guilty Spark at the end of Halo2, the forerunners exhausted every means they could find to destroy the flood, eventually leading to the construction of the Halos. They died by firing off the Halos themselves.......
They might be in the ark, but probably not alive. It's been thousands and thousands of years since they were around.
