Actually, the Arbiter and Johnson and Miranda aren't friends. If you recall, Johnson took over the scarab and said that they don't like eachother. He was only helping to stop the ring from firing. I never thought the elites were our friends, but I think they will become alies. That's why the Master Chief met up with him, and that's why Johnson and Miranda are still alive at this point beyond the fact that the Arbiter wanted to stop the ring.
