Halo 4 is owned by 343 Industries and Microsoft. My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is owned by Hasbro.

The Didact was stopped and the Composer destroyed, but at what cost. Master Chief (Chief or John) would have given his own life for the human race, but in an act of valor Cortana sacrificed her last remnants to save John. Now with no AI. and no friend with him, he floats towards an unknown planet which looks like paradise. Soon he learn that friendship is already following him through fate, but will he accept?

Lines from Halo are used in this story. Don't hate! Just using something from the game.

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.

While moving to her new home, Zecora find the strangest creature - a large, nigh-hairless talking monkey-thing. Seeing how it lacks basic knowledge on surviving in the wild (and that it's quite tall and probably good at manual labour) she decides to adopt it as her assistant. Hopefully, she won't come to regret her decision.

Immediately following the events of the Season 2 finale, Queen Chrysalis and her Changelings disappear off into the sunset, becoming nothing more than a twinkle in the sky to any observing eye. However, they weren't just gone from Equestria. They were gone from the entire world! Somehow, they had been transported to our Earth. Queen Chrysalis, specifically, lands outside the door of a human - James - in Indianapolis, Indiana.

How will our government react to Changelings? How will James react?

Please note that I will try to write a chapter each day, and will Livestream my writing it, then post it the following day while I work on the next one.

So I could post it to FiMFiction, I combined Chapters 1 and 2 together.

Back home from "The Sandbox", one soldier tries to rebuild and restart his life. Though broken and depressed from battle, he is unsure about his place in life. Still living inside the bottle, he discovers MLP:FiM, which gives him hope and motivation to carry on. But his trip to the Central Library one day is what seals the fate of this soldier's future.

A small salute to those who have put themselves on the line and those who are going to.

I love the feedback and i'll try to respond to everything

My name is none of your concern. We are not alone. Humans are no longer the only creatures that walk, talk, write, and kill. In 2015, the Pentagon received direct contact from an extraterrestrial with an offer that we soon realized was too good to pass up. In exchange, we had to eliminate one of her kind. We were desperate, and this alien held in her hooves the key to humanity's prolonged survival. One man was assigned for the mission.

I was that man, and that mission was called Operation: Usurped Dawn.
.

In the dark future of Equestria, a ponykind that has turned its back on the ideals of friendship and love faces the threat of extinction. Their land is corrupted by twisted dark magic, and scarred by countless wars.

But when a mysterious race of aliens armed with amazing technology arrives in Equestria, ponykind is given another chance at survival. Will they take it?

[a reimagining and reversal of Blaze's "The Conversion Bureau".]

42 light years away, humanity discovers a possibly habitable planet. But things go awry and the suvivors are stranded on the planet, this curious planet.

Wait what? You thought they were American? HA, YOU MAKE ME LAUGH, HUMAN!

They're Russian...

Constructive criticism appreciated.

Eight years ago, Equestria emerged in the South Pacific Ocean. Two weeks after, the bureaus opened. Three weeks after that... they declared war.

Now, in the last days of man, a man fighting for humanity gets transported into a vastly different Equestria

Formerly "Unconventional Tactics."

Equestria has enjoyed a millennium of peace and prosperity, but let its power wane. Now the peace has been broken, and it lacks the power to regain it. The Elements of Harmony have proven useless, and the Royal Guard can barely stem the tide. As Equestria's enemies conspire against it and the ponies' situation grows desperate, they must return it in kind and get their hooves dirty. And a certain group of technocratic cultists displaced from their own world are just the ones to show the ponies that there can only be peace through power.
