The first encounter was a scouting mission for what was left of the Atlas Company, an extremely powerful super-corporation, looking for a new exploitable material to bring their company back to the top and they found exactly what they were looking for. Equestria, code named Planet E. It was rich in every kind of natural resource, Atlas knew that they had to have it. Surprisingly the occupants of E were very accepting of Atlas and allowed them to mine. Unfortunately the seemingly peaceful lands of E were tainted by the poisons of weapons, drugs and... other things that were brought in by the alien visitors. Soon the great, peaceful lands began to evolve ever so into a cruel, harsh wasteland.
As with the spirit of all humans, rumors began to pop up of great powers of the element only known as "8". Soon the land became overwhelmed with pirates, scavengers, and treasure hunters alike in search of "element 8". As time had come to have it, the great Treasure Hunters of Pandora themselves finally arrived. But they seemed special. By orders of the Princess herself, they were to be aided in the search. But, as fate might have it, the treasure hunters ship just so happened to crash by a town named Ponyville...

Slight gore here and there. But it isn't 'all in your face' guts and agony all the time, so there you go.

I do not own My Little Pony or Borderlands. Borderlands is owned by 2K games and Gearbox Software, MLP is owned by Lauren Faust and Hasbro.

Side Note: This is my second fanfic on the site (And EVER). Feel free to leave any suggestions on how to fix my writing. I'm still sort of new at this and any tips to improve my work would be very much appreciated.
