Brother Thane, the newest addition to the Blood Angels Chapter, is finally ready to serve his first tour for the Emperor. It is anything but ordinary as he learns the violence of war, makes desperate alliances and discovers the secrets of Equestria. How do the ponies accept a super soldier built for war and nothing else? How do Space Marines handle the harmless, but still alien, ponies of this world? Can either side stand up to the rigors of the grim darkness of the 41st millennium?

His home was a barren wasteland a never ending battlefield. A world of war and greed. What more can a soldier of fortune ask for? Now in a peaceful world where war is a foreign word.
How will the only Raven in equestria adjust. Peaceful world or not old habits die hard.

When Twilight first began her experiments in trying to figure out better ways to access the Aether, the realm of magic and souls just outside their physical realm, she did not expect to make significant progress. After all, pony kind has been trying to find out the answer to that line of thinking for centuries.

When she felt herself connect to the other realm Twilight accidentally manipulated its energies in a different sort of way. The Aether bent to her will much easier than before. Getting just a bit too excited, Twilight played with the Aether a tad too freely and the reality-bending powers of the outer realm sucked her into its bottomless depths.

Fortunately Twilight was able to direct herself back to the material realm using the closest, and brightest, soul she could find as an anchor. And the second she looked up at the skull of the skeleton sitting on top of a golden throne, she knew life was about to get more... interesting.

(A crossover with "If the Emperor had a Text-to-Speech Device")

Clayton Carmine, the last of the Carmines, a fine soldier, a true Gear. Ever since he was old enough to understand the basics of the world he wanted to be a soldier, to serve a cause greater than himself. To protect the ones he loved. But what happens when the cause dissipates and there are no more loved ones? The Locust War took everything from Clayton. His home, his friends, his mother, his father, his brothers, his aunts, his uncles, his cousins, his nieces, and nephews. His entire family gone. But still he made that a cause, to avenge them. To fix everything that happened to them. But what happens, when he completed that goal?

This is a Gears of War 3 crossover.
All characters belong to their respective owners.
Takes place after the events of Gears of War 3 and after The Crystal Kingdom Episode.

Meet X Team: six OC SPARTAN-II super soldiers from a FANON version of the Halo universe. When a slipspace accident sends the SPARTANS to Equestria, they have to find a way to get back home.

There's just two catches.

First: They can get home. All they need is the time to repair their ship.

Second: Through a series of misundersandings, the ponies perceive the SPARTANS as threats, and they don't intend to leave them alone.

What could possibly go wrong?

*Featured 12/4/2013*

When a young human super-soldier falls to Equestria, he must move on from his dark past filled with war, tragedy and bloodshed. Will he embrace this new chance at life, this new beginning? And most importantly. can he protect it when an ancient evil returns for a second time?

(NOT a Halo crossover.)

!!!Due to an incredibly busy schedule now that exams for college entry are closing in, New Beginnings is on Hiatus!!!

On July 3, 1943, Equestria declared war on the Axis Powers.

These are the stories of those times.

(Contains historical events, including warfare and atrocity, depicted in what I hope to be a genuine, accurate manner. For more explanation, please see the foreword.)

The English Channel splashing around the landing craft. Bullets whizzing past and boys clutching their guns. Doors lowering. Lead meeting flesh. Blood spraying and water running red. Take the beach -- take the beach! Hand-to-hand combat and explosions. Darkness and then light. How did he get here...?

A wise man once said. "If you want to be a hero, it's not the big things that count, but the right ones." Words to live by. But how can you be a hero if all you know is the, cold, dark, embrace of death.

Sending soldier after soldier to their impending doom in hell. To spend eternity cleansing their sins in a lake of fire. Finding your only redemption in staining your hands red to paint over the truth because even you don't want to face it.

Well welcome to my life.

Spartans never die, they're just missing in action. This has never been more true for Jorge-052 as, after activating the slipspace drive that was supposed to kill him, he is instead flung into a strange world where war is but a distant memory. Will the aging soldier be able to adapt to this new peaceful planet? Or will his only salvation be found in finding a way back to his own chaotic universe?
