Four years after the Halo event...

The UNSC Yamato on her maiden voyage sets out to a distress sent out by a colony only to arrive to a glassed planet and a fleeing Covenant force. Following the Covenant fleet, the small UNSC force finds themselves in an alternate dimension over a primitive planet. Can the UNSC stop the Covenant before they glass this world or will it join all the others burned up in this crazy war. The one thing that throws a wrench in the mix... Ponies.

Tragedy strikes the Carousel Boutique, when Rarity's younger sister Sweetie Belle is hit by a speeding carriage.
As Sweetie Belle fights for her life, hanging on by a thread, Rarity feels her entire life fall apart.
The doctors have warned that Sweetie might not make it.
Can she live, continue on her life, without her little sister?

"It has been one week since it happened...

One week since my life changed forever...

The nightmares haunt me every night...

I need to get away...

I need to escape...

"Gather round, I got a bit of a story to tell. It don't got much to do with princesses, dragons and the like- not even much of a happily ever after. But things worked themselves out all the same."

"This is the tale of a little filly, no older than the ones you see scurrying about town- futures as bright as their smiles."

"The Kid ain't have it so lucky."

"Her classmates, even some of her friends would poke fun at her. Some even called her a chicken.

Children can be cruel like that.

One day, Kid got some news, started believing all that hogwash. Broke her little heart something fierce. But between you and me, Kid had more guts than any chicken I seen."

"I should know, because I was there..."

(Narrated in the voice of Ruck from Bastion.)

Applejack's got a secret she'd kept hidden for many years. Nopony would ever have guessed what she and Twilight were up to in the library late at night, once Spike had gone to sleep. That is, until a jealous Rainbow Dash decided it was her business to find out just what in the hay was going on.

Scootaloo grew up at an orphanage ran by Gerda. The old hag had clipped Scootaloo's wings last time she tried to escape. Now, under cover of darkness years later, she has finally escaped and boarded a train to Ponyville. Will she stop running from her past long enough to enjoy her new life?

A slice of life story that will follow Scootaloo from orphan to daredevil, from the Cutie Mark Crusaders to Dash teaching her to fly, and beyond!

This story is lightly self-edited and I'm aiming for a pace of a short chapter a day. It keeps me busy while my editors work on my other, more "serious" stories

Warning: This story contains way too many cheesy pop culture references, and horrible title puns. They're my guilty pleasure.

There's nothing worse than feeling alone during the holidays, something that Scootaloo is all to familiar with. She knows that she has no family to celebrate with, save for a mother so drunk off cider she doesn't realize her daughter's heartbreak.

This is the filly's reality- the harsh card fate has dealt her. But this Hearth's Warming Eve, as she treks home through the brisk air all by herself, a certain rainbow-maned pegasus will show her the true meaning of family.

One night, an amazing display lit up the sky over Ponyville. A comet, brighter than any in living memory, was making its way through the sea of stars. The residents of the town gathered en masse to witness the spectacle. As was the tradition for such an occasion, many ponies made a wish on the celestial body, hoping that maybe, just maybe, some of them might come true...

Around five decades after the Human-Covenant War and the Ark was destroyed the Covenant fled, scattered across the universe in small fleets or surviving parties of the once almighty, but now ravished congregation of alien races that was the Covenant.
The UNSC have separated their Navy into two divisions: those who go out and repair the damage the Covenant placed on the Humans and those who hunt down the remaining Covenant so they know the Covenant cannot rebuild or attack any other forms of life in their conquest to walk the path of the Great Journey.
This account is of the UNSC frigate class, Aurora Dawn, and its fleet as they hunt down the last surviving Covenant fleet as the Covenant ships drift towards an unknown planet in search of the one last Forerunner artifact that could help them achieve the path of the Great Journey in one moment and destroy all life in any and all surrounding galaxies. The Forerunner artifact, known as the Fruit of Good and Evil, found in the Forerunner sanctuary known as the Garden of Eden, which is found in the heart of the moon of this unknown planet. The Covenant must be stopped at all costs and Aurora Dawn and its followers will stop at nothing to end this war once and for all.
