Yes, I know how many halo x mlp fanfics there are out there, but I wanna showcase my feelings on how it would go if MLP clashed with Halo

When Luna and Twilight discover the Forward Unto Dawn, they wonder what this could possibly bring to the peaceful land of Equestria. They have no idea what could possibly be on this odd object racing to the ground.
When Cortana awakens Master Chief from his slumber, she warns that the Dawn is falling to the surface of an unknown planet. Chief must find a way to get to the ground safely and survive in this new, oddly colored place.

This the beginning of my first fanfiction. It will be a continuing story until I decide to stop. I hope everyone will be supportive and encouraging as I write this story for all you guys.

Years drifting in space aboard a frigates wreck with nothing to do but wait and think can really wear an AI thin, and when that AI is already past its expected rampancy date, all that thinking time is dangerous. Very dangerous. Fortunately for Cortana, the frigate is pulled into an unknown planets atmosphere, allowing her to take her mind off of rampancy for a while. After being rudely awoken from cryo sleep, the Master Chief, along with Cortana, manages to escape the burning vessel. They have very serious problems though...

They have no idea where they are, or how they'll get back to Earth.

They can only hope someone finds their distress beacon, and fast. The Chief doesn't have many supplies, and with a rapidly decaying AI in his head, he has a lot on his hands. Luckily for them, the planet is life supporting. Unfortunately though, the inhabitants of the strange planet aren't the most welcoming of a seven foot tall alien, especially when that alien is as aggressive and lethal as Spartan-117. The Chief has only one objective, find a way off of the planet. The inhabitants will soon learn, however, that the Spartan is extremely aggressive, and will stray slightly from his objective to harm them if he must. Chief also learns that these beings are no pushovers, and will defend their home and kingdom with their lives.

The first few chapters are mostly to establish a plot, there will be much more action after them. This is also my first fic, so constructive criticism is appreciated. I will be reading the comments quite thoroughly for the first while, so you may see some of your ideas in future chapters. I am only 15 years old, so basically, I have school, homework, and sports that will quite often get in the way of this story, but I will work on it as much as I can when I can. I won't give up or quit in the middle of the story despite what the ratings may be, and last but not least, I won't be turning this into some huge cliche war where Equestria ends up fighting the UNSC and whatnot. Because Equestria would get screwed. Badly. Then the story would be ruined, so, I hope anyone who reads this enjoys!

I do not own the Halo franchise, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, or Forward Unto Dawn.

Story added on October 25th. Edited by myself, and inspired by Halo: Ponies and Clouded Pasts by Blazer and The Mercy, Regret, and Truth by Master 4871.

PS: This made it into the featured box the second day it was uploaded, and remained there for a couple weeks. I'm pretty damn proud of that since this was my first fanfic ever, and the first thing I ever posted anywhere. The only other people to read my creative writing creations were my English teachers and occasionally my grandparents and father. So seeing the first thing I submit get such great feedback and a huge amount of views (huge to me), is just amazing to me.

Thanks, bros.

Hilarity ensues when the pragmatic & well-mannered Arbiter and his intelligent-defunct & acid-tongued friend the Master Chief find themselves on Equestria with absolutely no idea as to how they arrived. Please note that the following characterizations of both Arby and the Chief are the property of Jon Graham. Rated Teen for ridiculous and gratuitous language.

Also, keep in mind that I'm not a moron; the Chief actually does talk in the manner in which you are about to experience. For those of you unfamiliar with this brilliant series, I advise you to check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/show/arbynthechief

The year is 2557 AD. Four years, seven months and ten days have passed since the activation of Installation 04B and the annihilation of the Flood. While humanity and the Covenant have struck a truce for the time being, and started to rebuild their civilizations, Master Chief Petty Officer Spartan John-117 has been in cryo-sleep, adrift, while his ancillary AI, Cortana, has been trapped in her own thoughts. She had been looking for a reason -- any reason -- to wake the SPARTAN up. Now she had one.

They were crashing.

{Description Edited 4/25/2014: Clarified Installation 04B}

Recently the Queen Chryalis downfall has left Equestia in a troubled state, the changelings have become good, and Chryalis is missing, but a recent meteor shower and a explosion where they landed, and Princess Celestia has sent the Princess Twilight and her friends to check it out, but what they find is more alien then magic eating bug like ponys, can they keep this a secret, or will it doom Equestria?

A crossover between Transformers and MLP:FiM.

Equestria is in danger once again. Chrysalis, the exiled Changeling queen, has made a deal with a powerful being beyond all imagination: Unicron, The Chaos-Bringer; a terrifying being capable of consuming entire planets.

This unprecedented threat to Equestria's safety causes the Mane 6 to seek out the help of new allies: Optimus Prime and the Autobots. But will their combined might and heroism be enough to stop Chrysalis's rampage of vengeance, or will Equestria and Earth both fall to the horrors of Unicron?

One fateful day, seemingly by chance, two humongous spacecrafts crash-land on the peaceful planet of Equestria. As Twilight Sparkle and her friends investigate the fallen ships they discover their pilots and that there is something going on that may be bigger than all ponies.

Meanwhile, on Earth, Sunset Shimmer has made the cut for a new, revamped Friendship Games. Although Canterlot High and Crystal Prep won't be the only schools competing this time. The Primus Academy Autobots and the Nemesis High Decepticons will be competing against them in the spirit of friendship!

But what if these two situations have more to do with one another than initially thought?

Equestria has had it's ups and downs. But when eight mares find themselves with extraordinary powers they band together as the kingdom's elite team of heroes. The league of spiders. Can they keep their secret from evil or will they end up seen as freaks for what they became. With only each other can they face the trials ahead. *up for adoption*

Long ago, an Autobot spacecraft crashed on Equestria, and things changed. But the implications weren't understood until many centuries later when a stolen ship crashed there as well with a ship full of Autobots and one "human" following in pursuit. Many ponies will have to learn to live a second life once they discover the truth about themselves.
Here is some of the art that helped inspire this.
and an Autobot image I didn't create
along with some Decepticons I didn't create.
