On the eve of the Gulf War, a US Navy ship sails through an intense storm and into a different world.

Equestria and the other members of the United Lands are attempting to remove the dragons from their encroachment into Zebrica, but diplomacy is failing.  While nopony wants a war, it appears that there might be no other option.

Captain John Mittal and the rest of the sailors aboard USS Wisconsin have some tough political and ethical choices to make.   This isn't their fight, but can they stand by while the rest of the world prepares for war?

Toby "Tobuscus" Turner is transported to Equestria when he presses a rainbow colored button, will he make friends or will he be evil. Neither, he shall be Tobuscus. And if It's Tobuscus it means stuff.

Did you know that humans only use 2% of their brains actual power?

I did, then again I know alot of things. I am a traveler. Through country roads, war zones, Trans-dimentional. Anywhere really. Oh hey! Here's a place I haven't been to!

Equestria ey? Seems interesting, hope it isn't like planet 419 *shudder* all you travelers; NEVER GO TO PLANET 419.

Anyway off I go!

...My name is Alex Mercer. I'm the reason for all of this. They call me a killer, a monster, a terrorist... I'm all of these things. Three weeks ago someone released a lethal virus in Penn Station. I woke up at the morgue. Now I hunt, I kill, I consume, I become. I'm gonna find out who did this to me... And I'm gonna make them pay.

ODSTs are trained to handle any situation. Get any better, and they become Spartans. However, no trooper is truly perfect. Garrett Archer gets more than what he bargained for after following an order to go back to Earth. He finds himself crashing in flames and waking up in Equestria, only to be introduced to more problems that add to the weight of the Human-Covenant war. Some see him as a monster, a friend, and the last piece of the puzzle.
