    MarineMarksman's Stories (16)


    A remastered version of this fanfiction is now being worked on. If you wish to help, feel free to PM me.

    -A Halo and My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic crossover.-

    "Wake me, when you need me."

    The year is 2564, 12 years after the destruction of The Ark. The threat of the flood is gone, the Covenant is a small shadow of its former self, and the universe is now at peace. Or so it seems, as the remnants of the U.N.S.C. Forward Unto Dawn is sucked into another portal, causing it to crash into the land of Equestria. Will the inhabitants of the planet except or exile him, and is there a new threat looming? Will Spartan-117 be able to handle it? Find out the answer to this and much more in Haylo: A New World.

    Authors note - I would like to thank Black Alicorn, Trill, and BIG MAC. They inspired me to make this story with their stories, so yeah, thanks. I am pleased they are all fans of this story too. Also, I would like to thank Trill for doing parts involving the Arbiter, which I think he does a perfect job at, except for the occasional grammatical or spelling error. I would also like to thank my team of pre-readers, Princess Lulu, Trill, BIG MAC, Orpheus, Pyro, and NeverKnown. The story wouldn't be what it is without my pre-readers. I owe them everything.

    >>13306 Chief? Dragon? Bare hands? The Chief is brave, but he is not stupid. But I'm sure he will kick some dragon ass with the appropriate firepower. Though, he might do hand-to-hand with a manticore.

    I really appreciate all the positive criticism. I am already working on Chapter Two, and it will be out tomorrow.

    I haven't played a Halo game in years, but I always liked the dynamic between MC and the Arbiter?  I take it that this is just MC and Cortana in Equestria?

    >>13356 In the end of Halo 3, the Arbiter and Master Chief were in the same Frigate, the U.N.S.C. Forward Onto Dawn. They were escaping the collapsing Halo ring, but the portal collapsed and cut the Frigate in half. One half reached Earth, which was holding the Arbiter. The Chief, however, was in the other half of the Dawn. So yeah, no Arbiter, yet, anyways. And that isn't a hint to my plans to the plot, but I might include him in it. :twilightsmile:

    Two things.

    One: A battle rifle is only as useful as you are accurate and far.

    The other thing: Try for chapters of 2500+ Words, and if you can't then chapters with 1500+

    This allows for quick, decent length chapters. There needs to be much detail and dialogue given how it seems the story is going, but you also need to make sure the chief speaks mostly when spoken to, when needed, or when he really really wants to let his thoughts out, for it seems like that's when he talks.

    Okay, there's a pretty glaring error in the synopsis.

    You have the story happening in 2664, "Twelve Years," after the destruction of the Ark and the end of Halo 3. However, the Ark was destroyed in 2552. You have it happening in 2652, nearly a hundred years later.

    >>13372 One. I found the battle rifle is great against foes with no shoes in close quarters. So a BR vs a bunch of grunts = BR wins. Two. Yeah, I normally do chapters around that length, but these are beginning chapters, not really much action yet. That will change rather quickly. As for the dialogue, it's that way on purpose. It's not going to be like that in Chapter Two and beyond, though.

    Oh, another thing: With the Covenant scattered and ruined, and the flood supposedly extinct, you need a new foe.

    Hence Scattered and ruined.

    You can be ruined, but recover.

    Destroyed is another matter entirely.

    Great to see an agreement reached quickly.

    Faster than I'm used to.

    Oh god, i just started thinking, the flood entering Equestria

    That would be a little more than terrifying.

    >>13391 The flood? Probably not. I doubt I could write as them. Besides, they creep the shit out of me, even if they are the most awesome zombies I have ever seen.

    Based on the first chapter, it looks good.

    Will the chief have equipment such as a bubble shield?

    Oh and also, just how much ordnance is in tact?

    YOU BASTARD!! I WAS THINKING OF DOING THIS SAME THING!!!

    Haha kidding. Well, I was serious about thinking of this same idea, but apparently someone got to it first. Oh, well, there's probably going to be something along the lines of this in Halo: Fall of Equestria (spoiler alert).

    Anywho, it looks like this is off to an excellent start. I can only imagine how the Chief - a killing machine bred for war - will fare on a planet of friendship and magic. :rainbowlaugh:

    I counter by walking.

    I walk up behind you.

    Ninja grunts just slowly make their way to you.

    the chainsaw is one of the WORST weapons you can use.

    Needs fuel, extremely loud, bulky, heavy...

    Only useful against trees and walls.

    I wonder how Fluttershy will react to Chief...

    >>13549 Yeah, you also gave me the idea.

    >>13478 :trollestia: Oh well, I really love your story. I'm glad you like this one too.

    I honestly didn't expect to get this much of a positive reaction when I made this story. Hell, I was expecting a bunch of haters and trolls. Chapter Two is out.

    I'm the only one of the people i know in real life who pays attention to the type of Assault Rifle.

    I once saw an argument on the internet about why it sounds different between the games, and my response was merely a "Different kind of gun" response.

    I love my inner Halo Nerd

    "For the record, that was awesome."

    So much truth.

    there are some errors in grammar though, such as "He throw it on it's back."

    It's should be its and throw should be threw.
