True Friends are those who stick by your side no matter what. Bonds of battle are said to be stronger then blood. Someone who you would risk your life for and who would risk there life for you is family even if there not blood.
I think this is good for chief emotionally after he’s suffered so many loses so recently.( that he thinks he’s lost.) He so rarely finds true friends and people he can rely on outside of his fellow Spartans.
Don't worry, Chief. Not all your brothers and sisters' stories ended on Reach.

Thank you. The Chief's life is actually a tragic one. Though he hasn't lost all of his family, he believes so in the event of Halo CE, and thus is more distant from everyone except Cortana. With Twilight now in the mix as his friend, the Chief will have another friend worth fighting for and someone he can relate to in a way, because in some ways, their upbringings were similar. Both were raised by a motherly figure (Doctor Halsey and Celestia) not of their blood for a future purpose that would not have been possible without intervention. They were brainwashed into believing certain values were right and not given a choice in certain decisions when they were younger. Well, that's how I view things.
I do believe that, while Celestia and Luna would be able to do maximum damage on a Covenant Invasion Force, they would eventually be overwhelmed by either sheer numbers or superior technology. However, the Covenant won't get the chance. That's the plan, for now.
I noticed now they reason why the alicorns magic failed in grabbing twilight. The sisters have more then enough to wipe the forerunner ruins off of the map, but in this chapter you can clearly see that forerunner material as some sort of nullification effect on magic.

I think it would be awesome if you reference magic as being neural physics in the halo verse. The Precursors and the flood would be magic then. It could also explain why the forerunners could never quite match the precursors technology they weren’t just masters of tech but also spiritual forces as well. I just think that would be cool and that the forerunners developed these anti magic defenses to protect against the floods more esoteric effects.
If you don’t know what neural physics is (and I wouldn’t be surprised if you didn’t) it is basically a sort of space magic that the precursors and the flood were capable of. The floods telepathy is a part of neural physics, the composer uses neural physics principles that the forerunners don’t understand to literally capture your soul in the data. The flood used neural physics to bring high charity directly to the ark, and used it to shut down slipspace travel in the whole galaxy.

Don't worry, I know what neural physics are. It is one of my favourite parts of Halo lore. And yes, I am planning to have magic be a form of neural physics. But that's all I can say on that topic for now.
This chapter felt a little rushed tbh.
There's not such thing as a 'necessary evil,' but there are plenty of things we call 'evil' that aren't. Killing in self-defense (or in defense of another) is morally distinct from murder, even if the action is the same. One is ultimately about safeguarding life, whereas the other is about taking it. The distinction between the two can appear blurry, and many evil actions have been 'justified' in the name of 'saving lives,' but it's still important to draw the distinction between the two and act accordingly. What the humans do in response to the Covenant is not morally equivalent to what the Covenant do to them.

What part of the chapter felt rushed, in your opinion? I'm just wondering for the future so I can avoid making things feel rushed. Hope you're enjoying the story though
9467697
I am indeed enjoying it, else I wouldn’t have gotten this far :P
I can’t recall the specific paragraphs but it was the latter half of this chapter that felt rushed. There were times where Twilight was feeling one emotion, only for it to immediately change to something else, or something happened and there wasn’t any time to process it.
Overall it felt like near the end of the chapter, everything sped up, like you were trying to just end it.
He passed by a med pack, (with) reminded him of something he had forgotten.
He passed by a med pack, which reminded him of something he had forgotten.

That’s a fair point anything they used to blow through the shield would probably hav ekilled twilight to. Or at least all the other people in the room from the back blast and they didn’t really have time to work it out.
Good job, mate. Continue like that, I love the story.
9467697
do you plan to have chief share his REAL name with twilight?
9509757
Thank you. I'm glad you are enjoying the story
9515306
Yes, I do plan on having her learn his name, though a bit later

I suggest you a couple of stories about Halo & MLP, if you want ti, right.
When is the next chapter coming?
Didnt that grunt that shot the hunter work for that other elite thats been tracking the Chief? Thats what I recall from the books.
This also reminds me of that one time that I took the warthog and managed to get past the doors before they closed. Made the hunter battle amusingly easy with a turret to work with
Changeling!
Grunts, good for comedic scenes of flailing around screaming, dying like idiots, or friendly fire.
Well, I'll take that over her becoming desensitized to death any day, any time.
I never want Twilight to lose her sense of self or her morals and ethics.
*shrug*
It always happens one way or another in stories like these.
This time, it's amusing because she used it out of a shocked reflex.
Wow, Twilight. It's not everyday you use your horn like a spear.
Well, this one is smart. He's even learned from the mistakes of his dead comrades.
Oh, by the way, the magical sword was cool, Twilight. Why don't you practice with it? It's be totally cool to see you give the Elites a taste of their own medicine with a flair of magic.
Just make sure to brace your mind.
Minor gripe, Chief is absolutely not the last Spartan II. Linda, Kelly, and Fred are absolutely still alive, due to their appearance in Halo 5. It'd be more accurate to say that Chief's family is split apart thanks to the Human-Covenant War, but some are still alive. Granted, not a lot, with only about 5 confirmed alive, and between 5-10 counted as truly MIA. The rest, such as Sam or Jorge, are "MIA." After all, Spartans never die, they just go missing in action.

Well at the time he doesn't know that.

Same xD
Was hard to pull off
Really?
Well the UNSC has done things like nuking Far Isle colony out of existence for mass rebellion. However, all of the UNSC’s worst atrocities could be considered correct in that those actions prevented war which would have taken far more lives and also spared the lives of the numerous UNSC soldiers who would have had to die fighting instead without nukes. Think of each colony as a city, not a country, and think of the Outer Colonies as space Japanese Empire after WW2. A city rising up in arms from there would’ve been nuked or firebombed and for the same reason Far Isle was. It worked, too, creating the Insurrection instead of a true civil war.
The Covenant has no such reason. They didn’t act to save as many lives as possible through any means necessary. They acted out of blind trust in the san’shyuum. The Insurrection has done terrible things, too, but only out of ego and selfishness. Like ruining Operation: Silent Storm because a colony was used as bait even though they knew the UNSC could never respond fully to Covenant attacks and so laying traps was the only way to fight them and that the UNSC would have saved the colony successfully if not for the Insurrection ratting them out to the Covenant.
So, to Twilight’s wondering about the UNSC; yes, the UNSC is no stranger to committing atrocities. The difference is that the UNSC does so when and where necessary to save everyone they can. The Covenant does so out of willful blind obedience. The Insurrection does so out of sheer ego and selfishness. I do not doubt the ponies would also do what was necessary to save what lives they could.
Oh, you included this guy! Lol!
9741419
Well the Chief, along with everyone else on the Pillar of Autumn, doesn't know that other Spartan-IIs are still around.
I see you changed some of the structure. In that room there is an open window on the right side that faces the massive pit. The platform that starts the little cutscene "Shafted" has a direct shot into the room Twilight and the Chief are in.
