Hello, I'm Mary. I'm a mother of two, married to the most wonderful man I could hope for and live what I consider to be, the life I've always wanted. So... why oh why, in the wide, wide world of whys, did this happen to me?

This is my story, for better or for worse, about how things in my life became beyond unbearable.

The star system Omega Centauri was just another oddity on a map to scientists in the not too distant future. However when they found the star was orbiting an earth-sized, earth-like planet instead of a black hole as its motion had suggested, a mission was scrambled to investigate this most unusual of celestial behaviors.

Hamstrung by politics, and nearly crippled before it began, the 'Lone Ranger' mission was reduced to just one crew member and left to his own devices.

These are the logs of Arrow 18 and its lone commander. This information is classified TOP SECRET by the Global Space Agency.

Do NOT tell the princess.

After the banishment from his once beloved kingdom for being cursed, the Prince of Flames seeks out a new home to get by in his unfortunate life. From his cries for a better living, the “Original One” heeds his calls of distress by sending him to a new world entirely. On Equis, the prince will journey with new friends, battle powerful enemies, and fulfill the dream that he promised for his dying father.

“Forge a marvelous kingdom for us... One that would bring peace and harmony to all who are willing... and to those that wishes to inhabit it... Rule them with brilliance and wisdom, my son. They will surely need it... As do you...” - Lord Magmus

This was a dream to be king…

Once upon a time, on the not-so-magical planet Earth, there was a US Marine who signed up to defend his country. He was assigned to a fire team, the fire team assigned to a squad and the squad assigned to a platoon. Together they defended the area surrounding a Forward Operating Base in Afghanistan from insurgents. If only it were that simple.

When lone Marine is transported to Equestria he finds a post-apocalyptic wasteland. With no orders, no resupply and seemingly no hope of return, he sets out to find what brought him here, and why.

Strong Language Warning: He swears like a Marine.

On the 996th anniversary of Nightmare Moon's banishment, Princess Celestia plucks a quartet of strange entities from the night sky. With her fifteen-year-old student, a rising Royal Guard officer named Shining Armor, a young Princess Cadence with an unrequited crush only the subject and his sister are oblivious to, and a small team of Royal Guards, she investigates. Their discovery is breathtaking to the ponies. What happens after ensnares the small US Special Operations Command task force led by Captain Scott Mitchell of the Ghosts, who through fate or misfortune found themselves on another world.

The events that occur over the next few months threaten to change Equis forever, as a series of low-profile conflicts that have long remained outside Equestrian borders begins to encroach upon it. As things are, lies, treachery and secrets are what is keeping Equis from tearing itself apart, and at the same time are the very things that may destroy it.

But if Captain Mitchell's team and the accompanying Special Forces can complete their new mission against all odds, then Equestria and the rest of Equis will never know what really transpired, or the true driving forces behind the long-hidden conflict. Because they're Ghosts, and they were never there...

The Sangheili are a saurian species of fierce, proud, strong, agile, intelligent warriors and skilled combat tacticians. They are named after their home planet, Sanghelios, and are known to Humans as Elites, due to their adeptness and skill in combat. The Sangheili formed the military backbone of the Covenant for almost the entirety of its existence, they fear very little, and take great pride in an ancient, honor-laden code.

However, this group of Spec Ops Elites, Grunt, and Kig-Yar have crashed landed in Equestria by way of a slipspace drive being detonated in the middle of the ship they were heading to, the 'Glory Upon Salvation'.

Now they have to find a way off the planet and back into space so they can continue their journey to the Blessed Path... by dropping hot plasma on human worlds.
But will they want to, when something they revere tells them otherwise?

Darth Vader is one of the most despicable forces in the galaxy. Once a powerful and respected Jedi Knight, he betrayed the Galactic Republic and Jedi Order for the dark side of the Force. The newly christened Sith Lord was apprenticed to Darth Sidious and quickly became a master of the dark side. Vader was soon the scourge of the Jedi, continuing the Great Jedi Purge by slaughtering all remaining Jedi.

An extension of Emperor Palpatine's will, the Dark Lord was constantly on the move, traveling throughout the galaxy to defeat rebel uprisings and kill any surviving Jedi. This mission brings him to the edge of the Outer Rim into the Unknown Region of the galaxy, in an unknown star system. High above an unnamed planet he duels with one of the last remaining Jedi in the galaxy in a starship battle. But during the battle his ship is damaged, and he crash-lands on the mysterious planet.

With his connections to the Galactic Empire severed, Vader must find a way out the land known as Equestria, inhabited by the strange creatures known as ponies. That, or he could take it over.

When a wild Pikachu (Mind you, this isn't a normal Pikachu) falls victim to the heavy attack of non other then Arceus itself, after having been the victim of the crossfire of a Trainer trying to capture said Legendary Pokemon. She awakes to find itself... safe and sound. Only, not in the forest she had called home.

This story is more or less... a beginner's story, but with multiple chapters and a plot-line. Any ideas or judgement will be appreciated.

Twelve thousand years ago, humanity was driven into a war with an unknown enemy. Fire rained from the heavens and the sky turned dark as the sun dimmed. Acid poured from the clouds and a plague was unleashed upon mankind: A virus that caused men to turn on one another. A disease that forced man to fall to his knees and beg for mercy. A pathogen that ravaged man’s civilization.

And when humanity lost all chances of reconciliation, all hope of keeping their loved ones safe, they pulled the plug, three hundred souls left Earth while sacrificing their only home to the angel of the enemy.

In the twelve millennia since the Great War, all traces of humanity have been wiped from the surface of the Earth. In man’s rightful place now are a multitude of sapient species. For twelve thousand years, these animals have lived in peace and harmony, man reduced to nothing more than but a myth, a folk tale, a legend.

But word has spread across the countryside. Word of forgotten beasts that still walk the western wastelands. Creatures able to bend the world to their will without the help of magic. Creatures said to be older than time itself.

Teen for language, and dark moments. Character tags will be added as the story progresses
