When a young human super-soldier falls to Equestria, he must move on from his dark past filled with war, tragedy and bloodshed. Will he embrace this new chance at life, this new beginning? And most importantly. can he protect it when an ancient evil returns for a second time?

(NOT a Halo crossover.)

!!!Due to an incredibly busy schedule now that exams for college entry are closing in, New Beginnings is on Hiatus!!!

Will was an ordinary soldier of the Space Army with an extraordinary secret. He believes that he'd just kill some monsters and get off the planet he and his company were sent to. But it all changes when he chances upon two helpless Pegasus ponies being attacked by a manticore. He suddenly gets drawn into a grand tour of Equestria, the country of ponies, meeting new ponies... and saying goodbye to a few as well. And what happens when he falls for a Pegasus with a yellow coat and pink mane? Conflicting thoughts, emotions, and actions assail Will as he tries to do what he thinks is right... and what this new Pegasus in his life would like.

I was known as Frank DeFontaine. I was going to a Halloween party. I was a pretty intelligent kid, starting my first college term, and decided a little dress-up couldn't hurt.
My buddy Richard got involved, though. And like everything, he took it a bit too far. This time, I didn't say no, though. I really should have.
Next thing I know, we're going all-out on making my Dullahan costume. Because he's my favorite optional boss, and all.
Really shoulda known something was up when that guy behind the counter just so happened to have a sword that fit our specifications perfectly.
Next thing I know, I'm in Equestria. And I'm missing a head.
Sakes, I could use a drink. And a neck.

I'd like to leave it at "Holy mother of-!" but that doesn't capture what I'm feeling!

Josh Schwartz is a normal human with a normal life. He has his computer, his TV, his pet cat, his love of sports, the works. Naturally, he doesn't approve or enjoy girly things that are obviously made for girls. However, when a mysterious and unexplainable series of events takes place, he finds himself in Equestria, a world with no humans and only ponies...well, mostly ponies. How will this sarcastic human boy adapt to this new world? And how will its residents take to their new visitor?

I'm Griffin, not much else to it. I've been bullied most of my life, which left me bitter and sarcastic. I'm a closet brony. What? You think I'm just gonna go out and tell a world that hates me that I watch a cartoon intended for little girls? I don't feel like giving the punks at school any more ammo. That's when cosmic powers decide I need to take a trip to my favorite fantasy land. But all is not sunshine and rainbows and it certainly won't be after I'm done with it. Equestria from the point of view of an extremely pissed off teenager, with a twist. Rust, the author of 'The Ballad of Echo the Diamond dog' is awesomesauce enough to have a cross over between our stories. Carnelian is a boss when it comes to art. Part of the 'Chess Game of the Gods'.

Violence, gratuitous swearing, and sexual themes. Reader discretion is advised.

Johnny is a typical Southern boy from a small town in Tennessee who just happens to enjoy My Little Pony, but hates a certain orange workhorse for her stereotypical behavior. Soon, he finds himself hiding out in an abandoned barn waiting out a storm only to wake up in Sweet Apple Acres and in front of Applejack. Johnny doesn't see eye to eye with her, but when Applebloom and her friends are stolen away from the farm during the middle of the night, he finds out there is more to this pony than meets the eye. Can the two form a fast friendship in their effort to locate the CMC, or will they have to dig a few graves for three little fillies?

It has been 2 years since the events at Baltimare. Marcus 657 is now living peacefully with his wife Fluttershy and his son Star Chaser. But unforeseen events in the Gryphon empire and an old friend that was thought lost has brought Marcus to
determine whether or not letting go of his old life is best for his family, and the world he now lives in.
(it is recommended that you read Marcus 657, the first of these two stories, to understand the setting and characters better)

Marcus 657 has always been different from his other Spartan brother and sisters. Most are broken at the core; no longer fully human in a sense. But is there still redemption for this Spartan? Can Marcus regain his humanity through old 'gifts' and new friends? And perhaps love in one of the oddest places?

This is my first story, so be nice. If you favorite it, don't forget to press the like button. Thanks for reading!

Here's something you probably don't know about the workings of the universe. In between each dimension is a space known as The Ether. Here a force known as The Guardians patrol the boundaries between each of the galaxies. When a leak is found they quickly fix it and restore balance to the universe. But suddenly a catastrophe has struck, multiple leaks have been detected and they are all flowing down to a single dimension that holds a single solitary world known as Equestria. Creatures are using the leaks to invade the world and the Guardians are fearful for the survival of the Equestria. The amount of damage could tear it apart. So they call in their top agent. He is a being known as the Wanderer. A human in appearance he is nothing short of amazing, able to change into any shape and wield any weapon. His powers are limitless and his ego matches it. Is Equestria ready to handle a visit from an unstoppable and over-charismatic enigma?

As Big Mac would say: "Nnnope"

Ork Nob 'Eadsmasha and his boyz were having the time of their lives: hijacking vehicles, stomping Chaos 'umies, making noise, everything a good ork could wish for. But when they are caught between Chaos and weirdboyz, they are sent to a world with no war, not much in the way of noise, not even a decent fungus beer.
Can they find something to do before they snap and start a new WAAAGH! in Equestria?
