Many of these so-called ponies believe they were the first to discover the land that is now known as Equestria. They were wrong, of course. Those idiotic Humans, inebriated Dwarves, and the pitiful vomit-inducing, tree hugging, frolicking Elves littered the landscape first all the while living their simple, boring lives. The ponies and the other smattering of races moved here over time from some other land. If they were still here, the various original races meeting the ponies would have made for a bit of a chaotic first contact considering they used dumber cousins of the ponies as labor and mounts. It's too bad that didn't happen, oh I could have enjoyed watching that carnage with a nice bowl of salamander eyeballs.

But, well, one or one-hundred powerful wizards attempting magic beyond their capabilities on magical artifacts beyond their comprehension tend to make things go... explodey. In a single snap of my claws the entire human race, and all of the other "intelligent" races as well, were simply gone. Vaporized in a magical wave of energy. The landscape left even more magically scarred than when the Tower Heart of the old Dark Tower went kaboom. We minions fled back to the Netherworld from whence we came and waited for the land to heal, and hopefully for some other race capable of thought to come knocking at its gates.

We waited a long time for that and now we should really get around to finding a new Master, none of the races showed any real promise so we need to do this ourselves. Giblet seems to have found something promising while digging around the cave of a local dragon (the dragons seem to have gotten smarter too), so I'll have to go give that a look-see and pray to Darkness nothing weird comes out of it.

But as I always say... Evil always finds a way.

-Gnarl, the Minion Master, on the origins of Equestria

(Featured on the first day, 6/11/2016. Awesome!)

I had a loved one and loving friends and a beautiful family. But I lost it all my girl my family and my friends my heart is torn, and I thought I would die, the only reason I'm alive right now it's because the only friend I had left told me of a man that would be able to send me to another world. This is my last chance if I don't find him I might not live to see another day, but if I do and start anew, I will protect those I love or die trying to Reach for my happiness.

Eight decades ago, the Centauri Kingdom landed its army on the shores of Vanhoover, in hopes of bringing Equestria to its knees and taking over the land. There, in Northwest Equestria, the 2nd Division of the "Clementine" Corps, 4th Equestrian Army stood as the first line of defense.

Prior to this state of war, Lt. Zip Jetscream was assigned to command the 3rd Platoon of the unblooded A Company, "Wild Rice" Battalion, 2nd Brigade, 2nd Division.

Split off from the division during the disastrous Retreat to the Galloping Gorge, Lt. Jetscream and his platoon flee south into the Unicorn Range. Until the rest of the 4th Equestrian Army and other Equestrian forces can assemble, they find they are the only thing between the Centauri Army and the fastest road to Canterlot.

Check out the Appendix for The Virgin Company, updated as the story moves along. Includes character designs and platoon arrangement. Contains spoilers.

10 years ago Nightmare Moon returned, Successfully bringing about eternal night. That day Twilight lost everything she held dear. In that time, she has been preparing for the day when she can take Equestria back from her.

Celestia, queen of Equestria, and feared conqueror had been Twilight Sparkle's mentor for years. Celestia taught Twilight everything she knew about battle, warfare, many things that had served her well. Yet now, Celestia has forced Twilight into an exile's death.

The ancient dragon queen, Tiamat, has been manipulated by Celestia into ending the life of Twilight Sparkle and her elite army. The battle is brutal, and it has drained on Twilight Sparkle, yet in a war of attrition, the dragon army will win. Twilight must do what she must to save herself and the ponies who have fought and died on her behalf.

In the first era of Displaced, two opposing forces fought and they were both gifted with Understanding. It was Auric, the Golden Sun, and his allies versus Makuta Teridax and those he, the Emperor of Shadows, had recruited. The story began and ended, but was never told.

This story is an AU version of the original War of Understanding and is nonapplicable to the characters or fics involved unless explicitly stated by the authors.

It is the year 2552. The Covenant has just glassed Reach with many Spartans dying to protect the planet itself. Luckily, not all hope is lost. The newest batch of Spartan-IIIs from Gamma Company have just finished their training and are ready to take on the Covenant. One detachment of Spartan IIIs, as well as ODSTs from the 105th Shock Troops Division, are ordered to evacuate civilians in the city of New Birmingham of the heavily forested planet of Victoria. But when a Covenant cruiser performs a slipspace jump at the same time others start glassing, many squads are EMP'd from the sky as they flee and are teleported to a land filled with magical talking ponies called Equestria. How long will a group of augmented teenagers with sociopathic tendencies, ODSTs, and an Elite survive?

This is a Halo and MLP crossover, so some feedback would be very much appreciated .
Few things to note: the first chapter is more of a way to introduce some of the characters and what they're like; the story takes place during Season 4 and may progress into Season 5, everything after Season 4 episode 5 (Flight to the Finish) hasn't happened yet.
I have to make up some non-canon Halo lore to make the story fit with an MLP crossover; my version of the Gamma Spartans is that they aren't injected with the illegal drugs after augmentations, because that would just make them too OP for ponies to handle ; the story is third-person limited but the POV switches around from character to character;
