Chapter 1
The crack of gunfire and the breaking of an energy shield followed shortly by the thump of a body hitting the ground were sounds that the covenant knew all too well after these past few days of nonstop combat. Reach had fallen to their might and their glassing was continuing as planned all human resistance had been eliminated well...all but one.
The footsteps of a Zealot behind her were all the information Six needed as she swiftly connected elbow to torso, shattering the elite’s shield and knocking him to the ground, his energy sword flying out of reach. The last thing seen in his alien eyes being the calm and collected but equally rage-filled face of the human he had tried and failed to eliminate. The Humans armor was covered in plasma burns and it had just abandoned its helmet looking the elite in the eye before pulling her magnum and putting one between his eyes.
Given only a moment’s rest before three more elites opened fire, charging at the exhausted soldier. Their plasma bolts hit true as they burned through the human’s black exposed titanium armor. With her helmet broken and armor now incomplete, her shields are unable to form their protective barrier as she grimaced in pain from the plasma burning into her.
She returns fire swiftly felling another elite only for two more to take its place. She needed more firepower as she began duel-wielding her magnum in one hand and her rifle in the other.
Six knew that her end was inevitable after the Pillar of Autumn left Reach...her home before the UNSC and the Spartan III program. The last of Noble team. One of the last humans left on Reach.
‘Ironic’ Thought Six as the Covenant began to converge on her position the Pillar of Autumn only a spec in the sky. Carter had told her that they were a team and to leave that Lone Wolf stuff behind. And now here she was, a Lone Wolf once again clutching the dog tags of her fellow Spartans ‘No...friends’ went through her mind as she looked down at the dogs-tags she held. She had managed to meet up with the last holdout of marines on Reach before all hell broke loose when the Covenant attacked with everything they had.
What followed were three days and nights of hell for Six and the Covenant alike.
The elite’s rushed Six, her ammo running dry as one crashed into her launching her backward before pouncing on her, energy sword at the ready. Just as the elite moved in for the kill Six swiftly kicked him away shattering his shield and dazing him before an elite zealot came from the side energy sword already swinging. Six reacted in-kind by hitting the sword out of its hand before firing her last magnum rounds into the elite’s face. The Zealots’ shield held, the force of the bullets hitting his shield only staggering him briefly. But before Six could capitalize on that the elite from before, now no longer dazed jumped back on her pushing her against the ground, breaking some of her ribs in the process and driving the air from her lungs.
The Zealot pulled his energy dagger out, rising it high. Six struggled below them, gasping for air whilst trying to grab her knife before pain exploded throughout her abdomen as the Zealots energy dagger impaled her. Thinking that the Human was dead the elites released some of the pressure they were exerting against the Human underneath them. That was a mortal wound the elites thought. And they were right, Six knew this too but that wouldn’t stop her, with elite’s atop her letting their guard down she used the opportunity to grab her knife from her thigh and plunged it into the Zealot’s neck, piercing his shield and dooming the Zealot to choke on his own blood. Then while the other elite was still in shock from the sudden attack with the last of her strength she forcefully removed the energy dagger stuck in her gut and plunged it as deep as it could go into the other elite’s torso.
It fell down to the side dead as Six collapsed back to the ground her energy spent. She felt so very tired, the days of combat taking its toll on her as she looked up into the brown sky. Her vision began to darken as she felt more footsteps approach her position. She tried to grab her magnum but her arm wouldn’t obey her commands.
She looked back up at the sky as her life began to flash before her eyes. From her childhood on Reach to the time she signed up to fight the insurrectionists. Her entrance into the Spartan III program and her takedown of multiple militia groups singlehandedly becoming the personal ‘Grim-reaper’ of her C.O . And finally, her return to Reach as a part of Noble. Jorge’s sacrifice to destroy the Covenant carrier. Kat’s sudden death by sniper fire at the start of the glassing. Carter’s death, taking a Scarab out with him. Emile’s stand against the Zealots whilst Jun and Six held the covenant off. Jun...the only member of Noble to make it off of reach. She may not have known them for long but they would always be in her memory as friends instead of fellow Spartans.
A shadow loomed over her, a slight blue hue from the elite’s energy sword covering her as the elite plunged his sword into her chest. The sneering face of the elite above her being the last Image she saw before a dark void consumed her vision.
But even then, one thing will always remain true.
Spartans never die...They just go missing in action.
Something was wrong.
Six hadn’t even opened her eyes yet and she knew something was wrong. Well, for one thing, she was awake which in turn meant she was alive.’ That’s impossible’ she thought, an energy sword to the heart is not survivable no matter how far technology had come. By all accounts being alive let alone waking up should an impossibility for the Spartan. But she was alive and no amount of saying it was an impossibility is going to change that.
Opening her eyes another impossibility greeted her. She was wearing her helmet, the familiar blue light of her H.U.D, and completely intact visor filling her vision. Her shields and armor integrity were reading as full. Outside her visor, however, she was met with a deep blue sky, devoid of any clouds in contrast to the brown sky of Reach after the Covenant glassing.
‘What the he-?’
The sudden appearance of a red marker on her Motion tracker meant no time for questions as something potentially hostile was approaching her position. Acting on auto-pilot Six sprang up instinctively reaching for her rifle, finding empty air she went for her magnum...nothing.
She moved for her knife...Bingo
Holding it out in front of her ready to face whatever was in this desert she now found herself in with her. Six’s mind was calm and collected, different battle strategies running through her mind. There were several rock formations around her with dead shrubbery dotted between them. But before she could look for an advantageous defensive position, Six promptly lost her balance and began to fall forward before catching herself with her ‘arms’.
Once she caught herself she didn’t see her arms in front of her she saw two armored cylindrical limbs instead. But before she could question what the hell had happened to her body the marker was now 10 meters out and approaching slowly. ‘Questions about strange body later, deal with hostile now’ Thought Six grabbing the knife and lowering her posture as if she were a tiger ready to pounce. A small bout of confusion quickly arose as to how she was holding the knife without any fingers with a small eyebrow raise but it was quickly put aside as the hostile was seconds away from turning around the rock it was behind.
Six tensed up ready pounce both literally and figuratively at the opposing... Lizard?
She released the breath she was holding before tagging the lizard as neutral through her neural implant, turning the red marker into a greyed out one. Now that there were no more threats nearby Six could now get a good look at what the hell happened to her body.
Needless to say, she wasn’t ‘herself’ anymore as her body looked more equine instead of a human. Her armor looked the same only it seemed to be changed to adapt to her new body. But what really took the cake were the two black armored wings on her back and the black tail with a single streak of white, attached to her ass.
‘Or would that be flank now?’ Thought the Spartan, amused, as she examined her new body, testing the multiple new muscles her body now possessed. First came her legs as she tested their new range of movement. After several tries, Six was no longer immobile, the cost being the sand now covering part of her armor after several failed attempts at movement. Next came her wings. Six doubted she would be able to fly as her armor weighed several hundred kilos’ at least but as a trade-off, the armored feathers looked pretty damn sharp.
One last thing remained however as Six reached up to remove her helmet, the hiss of a pressure seal being broken startling the nearby curious birds of their pearches. Removing the helmet she turned it around in her hooves, long since accepted that they somehow grabbed stuff as long as she thought of them as arms with hands.
Her face reflected in the golden visor of her helmet as she looked down at it. Her face was still as scared as ever from countless injuries during her time taking down insurrectionists. Her fur was a light grey with a short jet black mane with white highlights on her head. The expression she held was one of calm and collected but yet curious as to why all of this had happened.
Any normal person would have freaked out by now at the prospect of changing species but after literally returning from death and now longer finding herself on Reach, Six was at least happy she got to keep her armor, scars, and memories after this ‘reincarnation’ as she would put it. Plus, as a Spartan, there is no time to panic, if you are still combat effective it doesn’t matter whatever happened to you. It’s one of the first lessons they beat into your brain during the Spartan III program training course.
The ‘Deal with it’ protocol as some Spartans liked to call it.
But now with that out of the way, Six was alive and there was still a war to be won and she would stop at nothing to return to UNSC Space (If she wasn’t already in it that is) and make the Covenant pay dearly for what they’ve done to humanity…
To Reach…
...To her.
Putting her helmet back on and returning her knife to its sheath, she made her way to higher ground before scanning the horizon for any signs of life. At first, there was nothing only desert for as far as the eye could see with large rock formations poking over the horizon. She scanned and scanned but there was nothing until...
...Bingo smoke on the horizon to her south-east.
Be it from a campfire, burning wreckage, or a forest fire, it would get her one step closer to civilization and finding out where the hell she was now located. So with a destination in mind, Six began her trek towards the smoke unknowing of what would await her on this planet but knowing that no matter what happened to her, when she got back the Covenant will pay dearly for what they had done.
I want to get at least a few chapters finished before I submit it.
I lied 
Hope ya enjoyed it :D

Welp. I have no knowledge about Halo, but I'm tracking this.
No Guns?! Oh COME ON!
There are a number of comma's missing, but it reads very well regardless, I look forward to further updates.
one hell of a start to something that has a lot of potential for greatness. i have read other halo storys that did start out so great but nonetheless keep up the great work.
Interesting start. I wonder if why she has armor on her? Perhaps she is some kind of Golem?
Damn 3 days and nights. One hell of a Spartan
Dragons would kinda fit Nobel 6 as well i guess?
Personaly the story description reminded me of a Changeling. There shell is like a armor.
Looking forward to more updates in the future

Still hoping for a Sun based update. That a brutal point to keep Jolyne story hanging.

Dont go overkill on the poor MLP universe 
On 'Steam' you can buy a collection of the Halo universe games. You be welcome to join me in a campaign over all the games
10412151
Spartans are weapons themself
10412276
I just started reading another Halo x MLP story. Amazing what crossovers can be found on Fimfiction.
10412307
Is that campaign offer still valid cause I’d take it
You got featured.
10412352
Son of a Spartan your right!
10412344
The Masterchief Collection on Steam is a gem 
Just buy it recently and finished the Reach campaign 
Its amazing pc player can finaly play the Halo games. This weekend i would love to play with you trough one or three of there campaigns. I also own Halo Wars 1 on Steam if you wannt enjoy that to.
Sure
10412355
Interessting line. Did any Spartan ever had a child i wonder... There was a Halo Episode in anime style.
I always wondered if this Children had a Spartan as parent?
10412405
There's a Spartan-II that got missed in action and had a family, but they all died by the time that series, where Locke appears, occurs.
10412400
I got the MCC collection since only reach was on it and am currently attempting to play though reach using the reach campaign evolved mod. Hit me up with ur steam profile and we can have a nice game of halo
10412416
Ah Halo 5 strikes again
10412419
No, I'm talking about Halo: Nightfall. You know, that series in which Locke appears for the very first time (as far as I know) in any Halo product.
10412420
Wait... that ODST Is Locke?! Bro I never knew that
10412421
All the characters that go to that fragment of Halo Installation wear ODST armors, even that retired Spartan (that got lost in action many years ago and had a family) which is the same who sacrifices himself to destroy the fragment with a Havoc bomb, I think so.
10412151
6 has magic now so im not going to be supprised if she figures out how to fire lightning pluss with how resorsfull spartens are she could proberbly build or will one into existence i mean this is the sparten who survived a 3 day and night battle
10412307
I know that the Spartans are Badasses. With their Super Strength, Speed, Reflexes, Intelligence, Hand to Hand Combat, etc. But it WOULDN'T hurt to at least have a UNSC Magnum Pistol/Assault Rifle or even a Covenant Grunt's Plasma Pistol/Elite's Rifle, and not just only have a Combat Knife. Besides, it's BETTER to be "Overkill" instead of being "Nerfed" with having NO Weapons at all.
10412524
Noble Six is a Pegasus. NOT an Unicorn or even a Alicorn. Sure, Peagasus have Flight, Speed, and the Control of the Weather. BUT, they DON'T have the "Real" Magic like the Unicorns/Alicorns. Like using "Summoning Spells" to bring in UNSC/Covenant Weapons to her. And I DON'T think she is a Weapon Engineer Specialist Type ( Build/Design Guns and other Weapons).
And even if she is, she DOESN'T have the right Materials/Blueprints to build a Gun. NOT even the Bullets! I doubt Equestria itself has the "right" materials to build Highly Advanced Guns like the UNSC and NOT even the Covenant's Plasma Weapons.
I hope Noble Six "Somehow" find some UNSC or even the Covenant's Weapons. And she is good to go. 👍
I was giggling like a school girl throughout reading this. Thats how good this is. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!
10412656
she might not be a unicorn but with rainbows rainboom being magic due to a boostid twilight doing it and fluttershys stare its not out of the question for six to develope or use a normal pegasis skill or ability in an unexpectid way. also there is the case of (im not a halo expert so sorry if this isnt true) her augments and stuff and if they are still with her or even active or is she now just a slightly above avarage pegasis
Interesting start, Ill bite.

Where do you get this Wise Monk Quotes?
10412980
All my quotes are pulled straight from stories on this site. The one your referring to is from the Author "Estee"
You would be surprised just how profound fiction Authors can be. Although some of the quotes are humor more than wisdom.

That almost sounds a BIT like plagiarism. I'm NOT accusing, I'm just glad you give where credits due.
10413154
If you attribute the source it's not plagiarism.
10413173
Sorry. I'm just Highly Cautious on trying to "borrowing" other people's ideas/Stories/Artwork/etc., and NOT to be accused of Plagiarism. I seen some cases where some people DO give Credit to the rightful owners. But, for some reason get sued anyway for it.
In Youtube, it happened to people Trying to "Borrow" something like from Disney or the Doom Eternal Soundtrack for example. And they got sued for Plagiarism when it is NOT in the first place, for a dumb reason.
10413154
People have been quoting Shakespeare, Plato, and W.C Fields for hundreds of years, yet I like to give credit where credit is due.
Why quote a dead guy when a living Author can be just as profound. After all, most of the writers here don't get paid for their efforts, and yet they waste their personal time and effort to come up with fantastic stories that we all can enjoy. Some Authors like "Thadius0" wasted months of their free time to come up with real Gems like "Shifting Melodies" which is 108 chapters long and takes a solid 96 hours to read. They do this because they enjoy the hoby of writing and because they want to share something with the community. A community that has its share of ingrates and pinheads that enjoy the sport of chasing new inexperienced Authors away.
I rather think of my quoting those rare and profound gems of humor and wisdom is a nice way of saying :"Thank you for your time."

Enough said. 👍 👏
Yay I loved Reach when I was 10 my armor was all ODST with the colors Blue and Red! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCseTZx8mhQ
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwO2_GGDYmU
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VmNLHI8u5m8
These are not what my armor looks like these are songs I listened to while playing it!
Very interesting!! I will be watching this closely.
Great, now I have to actually finish Reach before I read this. What is with this site and making me play certain games as of late?
10412419
Your featured. Congratulations
10413439
Just watch the Cinematics on youtube then
10413187
Because you can sue anyone at anytime for anything. In the world of copyrights, how good your lawyers are and how many you have usually matters more, than who's right and wrong. After all, could you afford a lawyer right now if [insert big corporation here] sued you? For most people, the answer is no.
More pleas
10413978
Give me like 4 and a half hours
10414120
By that I mean I’m finished with chapter 2 I just need to make the Title card and do finishing touches when I get back home at 15:30 German time
I think that would be rump now.
10413880
I am no coward, plus I bought the MCC a month ago and have yet to finish a single game in it due to not having enough time. This just gives me a nice reason to finish Reach.
This sounds AWESOME so far!
Its good but,spartan 3's did not enlist they got conscripted as orphans. The spartan 3 program started after the covenant war had started and had nothing to do with inies
I can tell already that this is going to be one of those really good fanfics.
A gender-swapped Noble Six... this story has peaked my interest.
10418578
Facts, also I think they only started getting actual volunteers by the time the Spartan IV program began, if I remember correctly.
10421055
You know that both are the official gender right?
10418578
You got to remember that they volunteered (as much as they were manipulated to do so) they weren’t “forced” into it.... not really anyway.
10528317
Well, "volunteered" in that they basically kidnapped the kids with a thin explanation of "we'll make everything right," then replaced them with a flash-grown clone which would die in about a week of apparently natural causes. Very "Starship Troopers," frankly.
Interesting place to put as birthplace since I remember S3's mostly being pulled from outer colonies' orphans.
Not complaining, I genuinely find it an interesting choice.
Maybe, though Linda 058 got very close with multiple organs being destroyed. It would depend on cryo being available.
