ATTENTION: Read this before opening the story!

Warning contains violence, but nothing on the level of cupcakes or any gore fics. Definitely not going that far, I'm just letting you know in case you aren't fond of violence.

The reason Celestia hates humans, it's a question I have mulled over for a while.

Usually in HIE stories Celestia harbors a strong hatred for humans. Usually a reason is not given, if it is given, it is obscure usually along the lines of ‘I know humans are evil,’

I now come forth with a reason, it is one word; invasion. This is a crossover between MLP and Warhammer 400000. Someone had mentioned in a HIE story that maybe the second a universe is thought up, it exists in a parallel universe. So I now present to you, The Battle for Equestria.

The rating may change if necessary.

If you read this, I would love a comment and a thumb. Did you like it? Did you hate it? Tell me why, I would be much obliged.

Cheerilee's been promoted to School Superintendent. It's a good job, but she misses being in the classroom. All that changes when Princess Luna asks the teacher to take care of a special student.

On a related note, the local vampire population increases by 100%.

Starting at a new school, tracking a serial killer, and hiding her thirst for blood is driving Cheerilee crazy. What's a poor undead schoolteacher to do?

We are writing the year 2100; the world has recovered from the third world war and is finally on the way to a better future; humanity has developed entire new technologies which make it possible to stop the environmental pollution and make life brighter and easier for everyone. 7 years ago a young scientist made a break-through in transportation: he invented teleportation.
Today the machine is finally ready to be used by a human, ex-astronaut Jan Schneider is the first tester; everything goes as planned, but on one sudden day, the machine fails and sends him to a different planet, to a different place, well known as Equestria. But was it really the machine which failed? Or has somebody an eye on him?

What do you do when you've been turned into a vampire?
For Cheerilee, the answer is "get a second job."

Ponyville's school teacher has it rough. The long hours, low pay, and lack of recognition are getting to her. On top of that, she's recently developed a little "drinking" problem...

A comedy.

Now with reading

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.

Mirror just wants to have some fun. She thinks moving to Manehattan is just the thing, lots of new ponies to meet, good food, great nightlife scene, random interdemensional portals opening in the middle of the street, the works!

At first she thinks it's a bit strange having a human embassy crop up a few blocks away from her apartment, but when she's one of the select few invited to be the first ponies to visit the planet Earth, it's hard to refuse.

When she does get to the other side however, she finds the roles have been reversed. She's the strange one, and even a little famous as the first extraterrestrial ever encountered by humanity.

Humanity has grown to control most of the Sol system, and looks to distant stars for further expansion options. When probes discover an uncannily-earthlike planet at a vast distance, the Solar Government takes on a project larger than any before it.

A colony ship, carrying over seven thousand people, the Eclipse is constructed. Thanks to its translight engine, it is capable of making the journey within two decades. The expedition is launched with high hopes, its crew made up of the best and brightest, setting out to prove that the vastness of space was no longer an insurmountable obstacle, that landing on distant worlds full of life was no longer just a pipe dream.

What happens when this colony ship's crew arrives at their destination would forever change humanity's outlook on the rest of the universe, as well as what could be deemed possible. Supernatural beings, energies unexplainable, and most importantly, sapient organisms all populate this mysterious, fertile world. In all of its extensive preparations, is the Eclipse versatile enough to tackle the task assigned to it? Or, more importantly, is its crew?
