New world

The human opened his eyes, only to blink when it was invaded by sunlight. He got up, his armor clanking a bit as he rose to full height. He growled in irritation as he grabbed his EVA helmet, the grey visor gleaming through a patch of sunlight. He noticed the hole and crack was repaired, somehow, and was now working properly. He put it on, then smiled as he noticed his black armor was still in one piece. He then looked at his Gungir shoulder pad on his left, then his EVA shoulder pad on his right, his kukri attached to the EVA shoulder pad.

"Damn Covies invade Humanity's planet for no good reason. Bunch of fucking assholes if you ask me." The Spartan said, looking at his Tac pad. Luckily, his armor was still the same, but, he only had his Magnum, with six magazines to spare. He looked at his grenadier chest, which reminded him of Jorge. "Well, at least he's in a better place." Noble Six said, then, he started to walk.

'Fuck, my head kills. Last thing I remember was walking away from a battle, then, a bright flash. Wonder what happened to me. Can't be dead, have armor and weapons. And I can't be dreaming, because I wouldn't be able to feel the throbbing pain in my skull. And, I'm not going crazy. So, let's rule those out.' Six said, thinking about it.

"Damn headache." Six muttered, his head felt like it was pounding.

Suddenly, Six spotted three white dots on his motion tracker. He quickly turned to face three wolf like animals made of wood. Six just pulled his kukri and standard UNSC knife out, the blades gleaming through the sunlight.

Six decided he would call them 'Timberwolves' for now. The smallest then charged at Six. Six was quick to react, thanks to years of combat, and stabbed the Timberwolf in the jaw with his knife, then sent his kukri into the wolf's skull, killing it. He pulled out the two blades, ready for another attack.

The two Timberwolves circled around Six, his black armor not allowing the animals a point of entry. Six simply put his knife it's sheath, then readied his kukri.

The second one charged, then bit Six's armor, but, he did nothing but break his teeth. Six then stabbed the kukri in the wolf's neck, then, snapped it, making a quick kill. The largest one growled at Six, it's glowing green eyes staring at Six.

"Bring it bitch." Six taunted, making the Timberwolf charge. Six blocked the attack, his shields taking most of the damage. He then grabbed the wolf's lower and upper jaws, and started to push them. Soon, with a satisfactory snapping noise, the wolf's jaws were torn off. Six then stabbed his kukri in it's neck, killing it.

"Punks should know better than to mess with a SPARTAN." Six said, wiping the green blood off of his visor and kukri. He sheathed his kukri, then let the body drop to the ground.

"Well, these things aren't normal. And this isn't Reach, I can tell. Better check this place out." Six said, walking off.

Raptor opened his eyes, only to growl in annoyance as his bones ached. He then got up, his mandibles moving for the first time in hours. He then looked at his white armor, checking for any damage or faults that could cost him his life. Satisfied, his picked up his helmet, then put it on. If you saw him, this eight foot tall Sangheili was clearly a warrior by his Zealot armor and his two weapons.

"By the Gods. I'm not dead. Well, it's a good thing too. I would bring dishonor if I died like that." Raptor said in his native tongue.

He then picked up his Plasma Caster, the blue metal shining. Raptor then grabbed his Energy Sword, the blue energy blade deactivated, then he hilted it. Raptor then sniffed the air, checking if any danger was nearby. He then walked away, his white armor making him look like a ghost.

"I'm not dead, or else I wouldn't have my armor and weapons. And I'm not dreaming, or else I wouldn't feel the heat from my blade. And, I'm clearly not going crazy. So, I'm either in a part of the human world 'Reach' that has not been glassed, or, I'm on a new world." Raptor said, his large form scaring danger away from him.

Thanks to his helmet, he has the motion tracker, like the humans and Covenant forces. By now, the motion tracker had one white dot, heading towards him at a alarming speed. He then grabbed the hilt of his energy sword, and let it ignite, send sparks to the ground.

"Show yourself!" Raptor ordered, speaking English. But, he didn't expect a large lion like creature to come out of the shadows. But, this wasn't a normal lion; it had large bat wings, and a scorpion tail.

"By the Gods." Raptor said, then, he flew back, hitting a tree. His shields flickered, then recharged rapidly. He then ran towards the creatures, his energy sword ready to strike. The Manticore then sent his stinger at the Elite. Luckily, Raptor dodged, then cut the tail off with a swipe of his wrist.

The Manticore roared in anger, seeing it's tail on the ground, useless. Raptor then jumped on it's back, and cut off it's bat wings, the blood spraying as the wings fell off. Before the creature could defend itself, Raptor stabbed into the creature's neck with his energy dagger. Thanks to his armor, he had two energy daggers, one on the wrist armor of the Elite.

"May the Gods be merciful apon you creature." Raptor said, then, he deactivated his energy weapons. He put away his energy sword's hilt. "I must find a town or city. Perhaps even a Human base. I need to know where I am." Raptor decided, still speaking English.

Raptor jumped off the Manticore's carcass. He then looked around, sniffing the air. "I'll go this way." Raptor said, then started to walk off. Little did he know, a SPARTAN was heading to the same place.

Zealot

"Alright, listen up. The Arbiter Sacrificed himself for the Covenant, as the Arbiters before him. Today, you shall do the same if caught or attacked. Raptor, your mission is to go to a Hospital, kill the Demons, and secure the data." A Field Marshall said, his red armor shining as the sunlight invaded the Phantom's openings.

"Yes, commander. I shall do this for the Great Journey. I shall take Swift with me." Raptor said, his white, Zealot armor polished and ready. The emblem on his shoulder was showing the Mark of Shame, like the Arbiter.

"Alright. May honor guide you, Raptor. And remember, do not let any humans survive." The Field Marshall said, his large form walking away.

A Special operations Elite turned off his camo and ignited his energy sword. "Shall we go, Raptor?"

"Yes. We shall not let the Demons survive." Raptor replied, grunting in satisfaction.

The Phantom then started to hover, letting in Raptor and Swift. After that, the Phantom went out the plasma shield to the hanger doors, and flew to the city below.

"Raptor, we are arriving at the destination now. May Honor guide you, Brother." The pilot said in a informative tone.

"Good. May the Gods watch over you aswell, Brother." Raptor replied as he and Swift jumped out of the Phantom.

THUD! THUD!

"Search the lower levels, Swift. Make sure no one leaves or enters the building!" Raptor barked, making the Spec ops Elite nod, then turn invisible.

Raptor then kicked the Roof's door open, crushing a scouting Marine under the door. Raptor ignited his energy dagger, then stabbed his companion, killing the human easily with a stab to the chest. Raptor turned off his energy dagger, then got his plasma repeater out. Suddenly, one of the Marine's radio started to make noise.

"Alpha, this is Delta. Respond."

"Roger. Report?"

"Got nothing on our scanners yet. Charlie and Jenkins have yet to come back from their guarding duty. I'll send a Marine to move to their location."

"Alright. Everything's clear on this end. Report back in thirty minutes."

Raptor awoke with a start, his eyes adjusting to the light as he got up. "Damn nightmares won't stop. Been like this for so many days. Wonder if it's a sign. I'll figure it out later." Raptor spoke to himself. He then sighed as his joints started to pop.

"I heard it from over here." A young voice said, making Raptor turn on his active camo unit.

"Well, you're goin' crazy if ya'll heard somethin' from over 'ere." Another voice said.

'They sound human. But, I won't do anything until I figure out who, or what, they are.' Raptor thought, but then his thoughts were cut off as a orange, human horse like hybrid came through, her hair redish, same with her tail. But that didn't catch his eye. The thing that did, were the wings on her back.

"Well, how are we supposed to get our Cutie Marks in detectives if we can't solve this mystery. Plus, Scootaloo is right. I heard something over here." A third voice said.

Judging by their voices, and certain parts on their chests, Raptor decided they were female. He turned his Active camo on a low setting, making the blue lights of his armor show.

Soon, a very light yellow, Raptor would decide to call them 'ponies', shown up, her hair red with a bow tied in her hair. She appeared to have no wings.

The third pony appeared, her alabaster fur was shining. Raptor could tell she was part of a important family. Her hair was light purple with some pink in it though. But, on her head was a horn, and she didn't have any wings.

Suddenly, the light yellow one looked at Raptor's lights, then froze in fear. Suddenly, a wolf made of wood jumped over Raptor. It landed, then growled at the girls. Raptor turned his Active Camo off, then, ignited his sword.

"Sweetie Belle, Apple Bloom, what is that thing?" The one named Sootalooo said in fear as she stared at Raptor.

Sweetie Belle and AB looked at the Sangheili. But, instead of hunger in eyes, they saw rage, and they were looking at the unaware Timberwolf.

"Durani Seranya kerak. How dare you hurt young ones foul creature!" Raptor yelled running at the Timberwolf, readying his sword to swipe.

My note: Hahahaha. Cliffhanger. I love them. Anyway, I love how you guys like the story already. I was thinking about making the story for a while. I was on Vacation, just ended yesterday, and I thought abut making a Halo story. This is my first Halo story, so, yay. And, congrats to me. But, thanks to those guys who made KIA and MIA, who inspired me to make this story. Yay, new story.

Smart creatures

The Zealot dodged the wolf's bite. His energy sword ready for another attack from the wooden wolf. It growled, making the Zealot roar at it, making the three human like ponies cower in fear. "You shall not harm these children. It is not honorable to see innocent creatures die for your hunger beast!" Raptor yelled, his mandibles speaking a strange language, Sangheilian.

It only growled and pounced at Raptor, but, the Elite was quick as he dodged the attack. He then raised his sword at the wolf, and swung down, hard. The wolf dropped to the ground, cut in half. Raptor snorted, then he looked at the 'ponies'.

"Please don't eat us!" The orange one, 'Scootaloo' said.

Raptor only turned his energy sword off, holstered it, and walked towards the fillies. "Are any of you hurt?" The large monster asked, looking at the three.

"Wait, you're not gunna eat us?" AB asked, looking at the weird jaw monster.

"No. I won't eat you. And, as I'll ask again, are any of you hurt?"

Sweetie gulped, then shook her head no. "None of us are hurt. Good thing you saved us from that Timberwolf."

"Timber what?" The large being said, confused.

"Tha thang ya just cut down. It's called a Timberwolf." AB said, the being looking at the dead body, shrugging, then looking at the Cutie Mark Crusaders.

"Let me introduce myself. I am Raptor Vadamee. A Sangheili Zealot. And you three are?" Raptor said, bowing his head slightly.

"I'm Sweetie Belle, but my friends call me Sweetie."

"Ah'm Apple Bloom, people call me AB or just Bloom."

"And I'm Scootaloo."

"Together we're the CUTIE MARK CRUSADERS!" All three screamed, making Raptor step back a little, surprised at the volume of three young beings.

"Nice to meet you all. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to find a human base." Raptor said, starting to leave.

"Wait, what's a human?" Sweetie asked, looking at Raptor with confusion.

"Well, a human is a being that stands on two legs, are hairless except for their heads, and sometimes wear armor." Raptor informed, looking at the three surprised. "You've never heard of a human?"

All three shook their heads. Raptor sighed, this was going to be harder than he thought. "Just, point me to the nearest town, and I'll be on my way." Raptor said, making the fillies gasp.

"We live in the nearest town. C'mon, we'll take you there, Raptor." Scootaloo said, smiling at Raptor.

"Alright." Raptor said after a moment of thinking. All three fillies giggled as they started to head some random direction.

Raptor walked out, with three tired fillies behind, panting. Raptor, however, was fine, his eyes looking at the town nearby.

"C'mon, we'll take ya ta Sweet Apple Acres. That's where Ah live." Ab said, as Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo ran off. "They're goin' home. Or else they're parents'll be mad at 'em." AB explained to Raptor before he could ask.

Raptor nodded silently as he followed AB towards a red building in the distance. Seeing AB was tired, Raptor sighed, not believing he was going to do this. He quickly grabbed AB, despite her protests, and ran towards the barn, closing in quickly.

Once she noticed he was just carrying her, and not harming her, she stopped, then flushed red, embarrassed.

Once they got there, he put her down, smiling as she squirmed out of his grip.

"Thank you Raptor." AB said, smiling as him. She was half his size, he realized. He was easily eight feet tall, she, however, was four feet tall, small to him.

"Shall I wait here until you get your family?" Raptor asked, making the filly nod as she ran into her house.

A second later, the filly came out, holding a orange female's hand, a hat that looked human donned her head, but she had her eyes closed.

'AB must've told her it was a surprise. Good, don't want any trouble before she meets me.' Raptor thought as the filly hold a finger at her lips, making the sign to be quiet. Raptor nodded in understanding, staying silent.

"Alright Apple Bloom, when can Ah open mah eyes?" The woman asked, her voice sounding southern, like a human.

"In a second sis." AB said, looking at AppleJack. "Alright, Raptor, Ah want ya'll to stay silent as Ah introduce you to mah Sis. Here name's AppleJack, but it's AJ for short." Raptor nodded in understanding. "Alright, Sis, open you're eyes, and prepare to be amazed."

"Better not be a animal or monster." AJ said, then she opened her eyes, only to be staring at a eight foot tall monster. She could do nothing as she watched the monster look at AB, shrugging in confusion.

"Sis, this is my friend, Raptor." AB said, then she poked Raptor's four fingered hand, unaware that AJ was preparing to buck the large monster.

AJ then turned back, landed on her fours, then launched her back legs at Raptor. Feeling a hit, she smiled, only to turn around and see Raptor in the same place, a blue field of light encircling him, then disappearing. "How are ya still standin'?"

Raptor answered AJ by grabbing her throat with his left hand, and grabbed his energy sword with his right. He ignited it, and put it near the mare's throat. He prepared to strike as he moved his sword away, then swiped the side at her throat.

"Raptor, stop!" AB screamed, making the eight foot tall Sangheili stop, his blade centimeters from AJ's throat. "Please put AJ down. Please put mah sis down." AB felt some tears glide down her face.

Seeing this, he looked at AJ, then growled. But, he turned off his energy sword, and holstered it. He gently put AJ down, much to her surprise, then walked over to AB. Kneeling down, so he would be her height, he said "You may stop crying young one. Your sibling is safe."

Apple Bloom smiled, then hugged the surprised Sangheili. He hesitantly returned it. "Thank you, Raptor."

She let go, then walked over to AJ. "Did ya just hug somethang that tried ta kill me?" AppleJack asked, rage in her voice.

"He was defending himself, after ya bucked 'im for no good reason at all. If you ask me, he was tryin' ta protect me, thinking you were a threat." AB said, making AJ's rage boil down to nothing, and quickly felt guilt replace the rage.

"Sorry sir, Ah just thought ya'll were goin' ta hurt Apple Bloom. She's my sister, and you know how protective we can be." AJ apologized to the now standing Raptor.

"I do. Apology accepted, AJ." Raptor said, bowing his head slightly.

"C'mon Raptor, Ah'll give you a tour of Ponyville!" AB said excited now that she had a new friend.

"Very well young one. Let's just hope no one tries to hurt you or me because I'm near you." Raptor said, knowing he couldn't hide his large form at the barn without being noticed.

A SPARTAN's honor

Six would stare at the town he saw, the town quiet, small, but big enough to be called a town and not a colonization effort. Six sighed. 'I remember when my friend would exclaim "Haters gunna hate" whenever he killed too many Covie Bastards to count...Good times, good times.' Six thought as he chuckled. Suddenly, a white bunny came across, stomping it's foot on the ground, then making hand motions.

"Angel, what it is?" A soft voice asked, making Six disappear in the shadows, his black armor helping him blend in with the surrounding area.

The bunny named 'Angel' started to do the movements again, making weird sounds aswell.

"You saw a weird black minotaur?" Fluttershy asked, looking at the tiny bunny for confirmation, making Angel nod fast, as if he was scared. "Oh my. Well, if he comes back, we should be able to talk to him or her."

The pony like being walked away, making Six come out of the shadows. 'Okay, so, pony like humans that can talk to animals and understand them? Dear God, what I wouldn't do for a glass of water splashed in my face so this nightmare could end.'

Strangely, he felt something on his foot. He lifted his foot to see the little bunny biting on it, trying to fend him off. However, when Angel spotted Six's EVA helmet peering down at him, his eyes went that of rage to fear in seconds.

"Boo." Six said, making the bunny run towards the anthro like pony. "Yeah, you think that they'd build a thousand dollar suit to protect against bullets and plasma, but not to defend against little bunny bites. That'd be pretty weird, and funny as Hell unless it happened to you."

Suddenly, the meek pony reappeared, only to freeze as she saw Six.

"Well, shit." Was all Six said before the mare used the STARE on him. He, however was unaffected. "Look, kid, if your going to stare at me, don't do it with the largest eyes or else you might burn them from seeing the shine from my visor." Six advised, making Fluttershy confused.

"But, the stare works on everyone, why doesn't it work on you?" Fluttershy asked, looking at Six, hoping for some answers.

"Look, there's been many wars in my kinds history, eventually, you just don't care about any of it, and focus on the ahead instead of the past. Oh, and I've seen worst stares than that." Six said, walking away.

"You shouldn't do that." Fluttershy warned.

"What, is there a Covenant Invasion here too I don't need to know of?" Six asked sarcastically. Fluttershy looked at Six like he was crazy. "Long story." Six said, making Fluttershy more confused than before. "Look, just point me to the nearest UNSC base, and I'll be on my way."

"What's the UNSC?"

"United Nations Space Command."

"What?"

"Look, I just got here, and I may be new, but you act like you've never seen something like me before." Six said.

"Because I haven't seen anything like you, ever for that matter."

"Well, this is some deep shit I've dug myself into." Six said, rubbing the back of his neck. "Look, just give me direction to the nearest town, then I'll be on my way."

"Well, the nearest place in Ponyville, and you should-"

"Thanks kid!" Six yelled as he walked off towards the nearby town, how he didn't see it earlier was a mystery.

"Meep!" Fluttershy squeaked. "Wait! Don't go alone. They'll think you're a attacker!"

"Listen lady, I've been attacked by things you couldn't dream of, so I suggest you don't try to stop me." Six said, looking at Fluttershy as she caught up.

"I should come with you, just in case." Fluttershy said, making Six groan.

"Well, there's no way of changing your mind. This might take a while, so I should get to know your name."

"My friends call me Fluttershy."

"Name fits someone like you. People call me Six."

"Six?"

"Long story." Six replied again.

"Well, we have time."

"Well, here goes nothing." Six started, as he started to tell her why he was called Six.

"...And that's why I'm called Six." Six finished, making Fluttershy gulp in fear of the seven foot SPARTAN right next to her.

"Don't worry, I won't hurt ya. Afterall, something that's peaceful and doesn't like war if okay in my books." Six said, making Fluttershy smile.

"Hey! Get away from her!" A voice rang out, making Six pull his magnum out, only to get punched by a blue blur. His shield flickered for a moment, only to fade as he looked at a mare who was in a wrestling pose, punching the air for some reason.

"Friend of yours." Six asked, noticing the wings on her back, like Fluttershy's wings.

"Yes." Fluttershy responded, blushing in embarrassment as we were in the front of the town called 'Ponyville'.

'Fuck these ponies are weird.' Six thought as Fluttershy started to explain things to Rainbow Dash.

New friends

Raptor would stand next to the door of the house, checking his Plasma Caster for any damage. Suddenly, A big red pony like being would come out, the look at Raptor. Raptor would only look the stallion up and down.

"Mah sis AB told me about ya. You're alright with me, Raptor." Big Macintosh said, smiling at Raptor.

Raptor smiled back. "I protected your sister from harm. I need no thanks, knowing that I saved a innocent life is enough."

Big Mac would smile at Raptor. Suddenly, a old mare came out, her light green fur along with her scarf on her head were most noticeable.

"Why hello there yungin'. Whatcha doin' here?" Granny Smith asked, looking at Raptor.

"I doubt I'm the young one here. But, Apple Bloom took me here to meet you all." Raptor said, making Granny smile. "Well, I should get going, I should find shelter soon."

"Why dontcha stay 'ere?" AB asked, using her 'puppy dog' eyes on him. Raptor looked at the filly.

"Fine, I'll stay, if it's okay with your elder." Raptor said, his mandibles pressed together to look more human.

"Can he stay here Granny, pwease?" Apple Bloom asked, making the cutest face.

"Alrighty yungin' he can stay. But, he has to stay in the barn, cuz we don't have any room." Granny Smith said, making AB yell 'YAY!'.

Six sat there, snickering as he heard the one called 'Rainbow Dash' boast about kicking his 'flank'. "Actually, I didn't move at all. If anything, your no scarrier than a Kig Yar."

"What's a Kig Yar?" Rainbow asked, obviously wanting to know so she could fight it, and seem scary.

"Something that likes to eat alot of meat, extremely agile, and, can kill a Marine easily." Six explained. "Oh, and it looks like a mix of a bird and reptile."

"We should get going, and see Twilight, so she could explain what you are." Fluttershy meeped out, Six hearing her, but, Dash was busy bragging she could take on anything.

"Alright, let's go see this 'Twilight', so she could examine me or some dumb shit like that." Six said, making Dash and Shy nod.

Suddenly, he would start to walk. "Wait, where's this 'Twilight'?" Six asked, confusion in his voice.

"I'll take you there." Fluttershy said, barely audible.

"Thanks." Six said, smiling.

"Pfft...Whatever. I can still kick your flank." RD said, smirking.

"Yeah, you can beat a creature who wears two tons of metal for armor, and, can snap your neck before you could even breath? I'd like to see that happening." Six said, then, he chuckled at Rainbow Dash's face.

"Twilight." *Knock Knock* "Twilight?" Fluttershy said, then, she would meep when the door opened.

Loud crashes a bangs inside followed, suggesting someone was coming. "Hold on a second!" A female voice said. Then, more crashes would follow, then, a lavender anthro unicorn came out, looking at her two friends. "Hey guys, what do you want to talk about?" Twilight asked, not noticing the Six foot tall SPARTAN lll behind them.

"We would like you to meet a alien or something like that." Rainbow said, before Fluttershy could say anything.

"Look, I highly doubt that you have an alien with you. Because they aren't real." Twilight said, smiling as if she thought that she was right.

"I'd like to disprove that theory. Because, there's the fact I'm standing behind them." A voice said, then Twilight would look at the grey VISOR of a EVA helmet. "I'm Noble Six."

"What are ya exactly?" AJ asked, lookinng over Raptor, trying to figure out what he was. "Ah'm guessing a new kind of dragon."

"No." Raptor replied, and was about to say something when AJ held her hand up, a signal for him to let he guess, then started to guess some more.

"Monster?"

"No."

"Hydra?"

"No."

"Mutant?"

"No."

"Some new top secret experiment that went wrong?"

"What?"

"Never mind..." AJ said, then, she would think again. "Well, ya can't be an alien, those aren't real."

"What do you mean I'm not real?" Raptor asked, looking at AJ in surprise.

"Well, aliens aren't real, mah friend Twilight Sparkle said that there is no such things as aliens. And, if ya are an alien, then prove it." AJ said, then, Raptor would laugh.

"I'm a Sangheilian Zealot of the Covenant. I'm a Saurian, or, to your race, dinosaur like being, who relies on honor to fight and live." Raptor explained.

"So...You're from a different country?" AJ asked, still not believing what Raptor said.

Raptor facepalmed, causing AJ to be confused. "I'll explain what I am in the morning, right now, I'd like to sleep." Raptor said, then, he would walk out the front door, and head towards the barn.

"Too bad she doesn't believe me. Damn pony human hybrids. I must be in limbo, or some stupid Human shit like that." Raptor spoke to himself, chuckling silently. "Her problem. Wonder how Thel Vadamee is doing. Haven't seen him for years." Raptor said, then, he would lie down on a pile of hay.

"Hey, mister Raptor, sir." A tiny voice said, then, Raptor would look down to see Apple Bloom standing infront of the Barn doors.

"Yes young one?" Raptor asked.

"Ah just wanted to let you know, that mah sis a brother appreciate what ya did, savin' me and all. And, we thought if you'd like to work here." Apple Bloom said, hands clasped together, almost if she was preying to someone for him to say yes.

'She may be the size of a Grunt, but she has the heart of a God, and the courage to match a Sangheili.' Raptor thought, then, he yawned, his mandibles opening.

AB seemed to fidget at his yawn, but do nothing. "Of course little one. I shall work here with your family."'

"YAY!" AB yelled, hopping in place.

"Now, go to your bed, Apple Bloom. You may need your rest for tomorrow."

"Alright, bye Raptor." AB said, running towards the house.

Raptor smiled, then, closed his eyes, sleep over taking him.

Discovery

"Shipmaster Tarun, we have arrived at this planet. It is neither Human or Covenant, yet it supports life. I say we glass it for the Humans incase the flood are there." A Sangheili said, looking at the planet below.

Tarun look at the Minor elite, his half mandible face saying other wise. "If it has life, there must be some forms of intellect somewhere down there. We do not want to leave this planet to the Flood or Covenant. We shall explore this planet, and send the info to Lord Hood of the UNSC."

Suddenly, the radio crackled to life, "This is SPARTAN B1332, does anyone read me? Respond, over." A human voice said over the radio.

"Let me speak with him." Tarun said, then, he started to speak. "Noble Six. Commander Keyes has told me much about you. But, ONI says you died on Reach. How are you alive?" Tarun said, then, there was a silence that followed.

"Some split jaws glassed Reach. I was near a ship glassing, and it somehow sent me to this world." Six replied, causing Tarun to chuckle.

"It so happens that I am a 'split jaw'. No need to apologize. I've heard worse. We picked up you're signal here, but we were sure you died on Reach. No matter, it is good to hear a friendly voice. We shall arrive shortly, in a few days. We have someone who'd like to meet you." Tarun said, looking at a human beside him.

"Yes, sir. We'll be ready for your landing. Also, this planet is full of mythological creatures, such as dragons, unicorns, alicorns, among many other things. So don't shoot them." Six said, then the radio died in static.

"Head towards the location he was transmitting from. We shall go meet him. Jun, get your stuff ready, you're about to see a friend." Tarun said over the speakers, then, he turned to the SPARTAN 3 next to him.

"It'll be good to see Six again." Jun said, his unmistakable accent easily known to the crew.

--------------------------------3 months ago----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"How are you real? Why do you wear armor? Is that armor, or is it skin? Why is your helmet/face like that? What's your favorite color?"

"Classified on the first one, to fight others in battle on the second. It's armor for the third. My helmet is like this because I chose it, and my favorite color is the same as my eyes, forest green." Six replied to Twilight, who was writing the answers down.

"So, Twilight, remember when I told you aliens were real, looks like I was right all along." Spike replied, sitting next to the SPARTAN.

"What's your name?" Twilight asked, looking at Six.

"If you are a possible enemy, I will not tell you. But, you can just call me Six for now." Six replied, chuckling.

Twilight was busy writing down, that she hadn't noticed Spike ask a few questions of his own.

"So, what's it like to be in a heavy, black armor all day?" Spike asked, causing Six to smile.

"Well, since this suit can keep me alive, ands it has air conditioning, and tech too, it kinda gets a little too home like. But, you get used to it. Now, let me ask you a question, are you a real dragon? And are you a boy or girl?" Six replied.

"Well, for one thing, I'm a boy. And, yeah, I'm a dragon." Spike said, smiling.

Spike was as tall as Noble Six, probably as tough, and as strong too.

"Well, I would've mistaken you for a SPARTAN if it weren't for the scales, spines, tail, and fire." Six said, causing Spike to chuckle.

"Well, I get some respect from an alien. That, is probably the coolest thing in my life right now." Spike said, making Six laugh.

"It's very hard to get a SPARTAN to respect you, or even show any emotions in battle." six said, causing Spike to smile.

"That's good to know. I'd probably be a lousy SPARTAN too, because no one can take me seriously, unless you count you, Six, and a few others." Spike said, lying back, relaxing, having no worries in the world what so ever. "Watch this. Hey, Twilight!"

"What is it Spike?" Twilight asked, not looking up from her paper.

"I'm going to marry a girl dragoness right now. And I'll never see you again." Spike said.

"Alright, have a fun time. And make sure you come home before it gets dark." Twilight said, causing Spike to look at Six, shrugging.

"Wow, I guess you're right." Six said, chuckling.

"Sometimes it's a pain in the ass, but you get used to it." Spike commented.

Fight

Raptor sat there, under the shade of a tree. He felt the gentle breeze against his armor, making him smile for the peace this land had. Reminded him of his home, back before he was in the Covenant. He sighed in relaxation, he had no worries in the world.

*CRASH*

Well, he did have one. But, he got up anyway, to check what the Cutie Mark Crusaders broke this time. "I swear, these fillies remind me of a friend I used to know." Raptor said in Sangheilian, ignoring a strange look from Big Macintosh. "Alright little ones, what have you done this time?"

"We're trying to find out what your sword thing turns on." Scootaloo chirped, completely oblivious to the face Raptor was giving them.

"Yeah, your sword doesn't wanna work, and we're tryin' to find out how to turn it on." Apple Bloom said, looking at the alien object.

Raptor took it from her hands, then growled.

"I told you we should have asked him before we touched it." Sweetie said, looking at Scootaloo.

"Yeah, well...Shut up!" Scootaloo said, causing an argument between the two, making AB and Raptor watch.

Both squealed in surprise as Raptor lifted them up with both hands, holding Sweetie in one, and Scoots in the other. "I've had enough of your bickering. You two shall stop arguing and stop touching my things without my permission." Raptor said, his mandibles now showing scaring AB. "Am I clear?"

Silence.

"I said, AM I CLEAR?!" Raptor said, obviously annoyed.

"Yes Raptor."

"Yeah, whatever."

"Good, now, go run off and try to find your Cutie Marks." The White armored Sangheilian said.

"Alright!" AB said, grabbing her friend's hands, and running off.

"Well, ya'll took care of that quick like." AJ remarked, noticing the fillies run out.

"When you live with Grunts, you get used to it." Raptor said, then, he would notice a Alicorn coming, her purple fur was most noticeable, but, that didn't catch Raptor's eye. The thing that did was the seven foot SPARTAN, known as Noble 6 walking with her.

"Looks like Twi's comin' to visit us. And it looks like she brang a friend." AJ said, but then, she noticed Raptor tensing up. "What's wrong?" AJ asked.

"It's a Human." Raptor said, making AJ look closely at the Black armored SPARTAN walking with Twilight. "AJ, stay here, I'll go talk with the Human." Raptor said, activating his Active Camo, disappearing from view.

"Do I really have to come?" Six asked, looking at Twilight.

"Yeah, AJ said she found a new species of Dragon. I want you to come along for protection. Plus, the only other Dragon you've seen is Spike." Twilight said, making Six sigh.

"Damn, can't argue with you." Six said, making Twilight smile.

Suddenly, Six saw a shimmer of light, and tackled something large to the ground. Suddenly, a Sangheili was in view, it's Camo flickering, then turning off, amazing Twilight, but enraging Six. Six raised his fist, then punched down, only to be blocked by Raptor. Raptor then kicked the SPARTAN off, destroying part of the fence. AJ ran out, seeing what the commotion was about.

"Sorry Applejack, I'll rebuild the fence for you once I have the situation under control." Raptor said, but then, Six kicked Raptor, making the Elite stumble.

"Damn Covenant can't just leave us alone!" Six said, drawing his Kukri out.

Raptor held up his hands in surrender. "I don't want to fight!" Raptor said, but then Six ran towards the Sangheili. Raptor then activated his Energy Knife attached to his wrist. Both blades clashed, sending sparks and bits of energy to the ground.

Raptor kicked Six away, then cut at the SPARTAN, cutting Six's armor off his right arm, to show a metal arm! Raptor could only stare at the arm, then at the black armored EVA SPARTAN.

Six growled, but then his punched Raptor's gut with his robotic hand, and smiled as he saw the Elite drop to the ground, coughing and wheezing for air. Six then cut at Raptor, cutting a part of Raptor's back, causing him to roar in pain, his mandibles stretching out, scaring AJ and Twilight.

Six wiped the blood off of his Kukri, then swung down. As Raptor was waiting for the killing blow, a purple aura surrounded Six's robotic hand, stopping the knife inches from Raptor's skull. Six then looked at Twilight, who stopped the Kukri from killing Raptor. AJ then ran towards Raptor, helping the Elite up.

"Raptor, Ah'm sorry. If Ah knew Twi would bring this...robot thing, then Ah woulda stopped her. Ah'm so sorry." AJ said, but then Raptor held up his four fingered hand, silencing her.

"It is alright, Applejack. His kind and mine have been at war for twenty years. It is to be expected." Raptor said, but then, he coughed, causing AJ to become worried.

Twilight would then frown at Six. "What?" Six asked, looking at Twilight, confused.

"Why did you attack him? He could be a new species, and you almost killed him." Twilight asked, completely angry.

"Actually, his kind has been killing Humanity for nearly thirty years. You would've done the same." Six said, then, Raptor chuckled.

"I was on Reach, helping Noble Team. Your kind was going to lose, so me and my comrades helped you out. Who do you think talked to your Commander into using the Sabre program?" Raptor said, smiling.

"Damn, I never thought I'd see the day when a Split jaw took one for me." Six said, then, a clearing throat made them look at the two ponies. "Looks like we have some explaining to do."

"Indeed." Raptor agreed as they made their way towards AJ's home.

Split jaw

Raptor stood there, his Energy Sword in hand, eyeing the targets. He then growled, and started to sprint towards his enemies. He then flicked his wrist, causing him to cut his victim in half, and slashed downward on the second, cutting it in half, and impaled the third.

He then flicked his wrist again, cutting his fourth victim's arm and leg off. All four targets fell to the ground, and some light would show some piles of hay, covered with a lavender aura, to look like four different enemies.

"Nice job with the sword. A little too fast, and lethal, but, we'll get there." Twilight commented, making Raptor laugh. "What's so funny?"

"This sword was created to be fast, and very deadly. Why do you think I rely on honor in my culture?" Raptor said, making Twilight pale.

"Don't worry, I won't need to use my weapons unless I have to." Raptor said, turning his Energy Sword off.

Six would wait in the shadows of a apple tree, looking at his robotic arm, reminding him of Kat. He growled in anger, and punched the tree with his bionic arm, causing all the apples to fall into the barrels below. He reeled his fist back in pain, remembering he can still feel in his fake arm. "Damn, I forgot my nerves are still attached to the thing, and muscles!"

"Ah would recommend ya'll don't swear near mah family and home." AJ said, rolling her eyes, but smiled anyway.

"What are you gunna do then, partner?" Six said, mocking AJs speech.

"Ah'd say Ah'd punch you, but seeing as how you're taller than me, and stronger too, Ah'll not hit you, for now." AJ said, growling in annoyance.

Six then brought his kukri out, and aimed it at a nearby tree. He then threw it, and three figures fell out, screaming in fear. Raptor remembered the screams, and ran towards the three that were falling. He quickly grabbed them in both arms, and stopped, letting them down.

"Little ones, what are you doing here?" Raptor asked Sweetie Belle, Apple Bloom, and Scootaloo. "And, more importantly, why were you in the tree?"

"We wanted to come visit, but that robot scared us, so we hid in the tree." Sweetie said, looking at Six with fear in her eyes.

Six quickly grabbed the kukri from the tree, and sheathed it, looking at the three. "Kiddo, you just made friends with an alien race that has been killing mine for about thirty years. I think you should be afraid of him, not me." Six said, making AB mad.

"Nuh uh. He's not hurtin' anyone here. Plus, he saved us from Timberwolves." AB said in her southern voice.

"Wait, he did wha now?" AJ asked, looking at AB.

"Well, we were tryin' to find out what that large ball was in tha sky was, and why it dropped somethin' down, like seven things." AB answered, not noticing her sisters worry.

"Then, those Timberwolves came out, and I tried to fight them, like Rainbow Dash would've done, but, there was about thirty of them, and then those two were afraid, and then I-" Scootaloo started, before Raptor coughed, causing all eyes to go to him.

"Actually, those three little ones were afraid of the Ninshin. I came in, and used my blade to cleanse them. In other words, I cut them to pieces. I remember those three screaming out of their lungs, I was sure that they would've screamed to death." Raptor said, making Scootaloo blush.

"By the way, there was only three of what you call, "Timberwolves". Then, I took AB and brought her here, and then her sister knows the rest. Before I met these three, I had to fight a lion with a scorpion tail, and what humans call, bat wings, attached, I took it down easily."

"You took on a Manticore? Cool!" Scootaloo said, earning a glare from Twilight.

Suddenly, a large form, in the cover of the trees, smiled as his mandibles clicked. He turned invisible, and walked towards Six.

Six then started to hit his helmet, causing some concerned glances to go his way. "Damn sensors! Work! Wait, that's not good." Six said, then, he turned towards the invisible figure.

Seeing his cover was blown, the Spec Ops Sangheili uncloaked, his large form appearing as he attempted to stab Six. Six grabbed the Elites hand, and used his other to punch his face. A large crack was heard as one of the Elite's mandibles broke, causing everyone, except for Raptor and Six to flinch.

"Dirty heretic. After I purge this demon, I shall take you and the unholy Ninshin on!" The Elite said, looking at Raptor.

Raptor noticed that this elite had way different armor than normal Spec Ops. His green/yellow scales were showing, and its snout was a bit longer. Its mandibles were a bit short too. Six grabbed his military standard knife out, and stabbed the Elite between his two right mandibles, causing him to roar in rage and pain. He pulled out the knife, and looked at Six, growling angrily.

"Bring it, bitch." Six taunted, causing the Sangheili to roar, and charge, his Energy Sword ready to swipe at Six. Six narrowly dodged, and grabbed his knife, and threw it, making it collide with the new Spec Ops armored Elite. The large creature stumbled backwards, but started to charge at Six.

Six ran towards the Elite, and tackled the large creature, causing both to fall to the ground. Six pulled the knife out of the Elites chest, smirking. the large creature growled, still alive, but Raptor pushed his foot down on the injured Elites chest, causing it to growl in pain.

"Looks like a human beat you in honor." Raptor said, making the different looking Elite frown.

"Finish me quickly, I'd rather not let you have the satisfactory to kill my brothers while I still breathe." The Elite said, purple/blue blood spilling out of some of his wounds.

"As much as I'd like it, I will not kill you. I shall give you a offer. You join me and these 'Ponies', and you will see your honor be redeemed. Don't join us, and I shall send you to their leaders myself. If you somehow escape, and somehow get back to 'Truth', then tell him I would like to meet him, and make sure he doesn't send you here again." Raptor said, making the Elite laugh.

"Truth, that old fool can burn in the eternal fires of Hell for all I care. We made a separate group of Covenant. One that follows the Great Journey without activating the Holy Rings and killing everything in the Galaxy. We don't follow Truth, or the Demons!" The Elite said, making Raptor smile, confusing the Spec Ops Elite. "Why are you smiling, Ninshin?"

"Because he just found all the information he needs. You're very glad that he feels like being nice. Because he would've pounded you to Hell and back." Six said, laughing.

"Twilight, take this Covenant worm to your leaders. They'll need the information of how, and when, he got here. Also, tell them that they can use any type of torture to get it out of him." Raptor said, making the disgusted Twilight nod, and teleport both her and the Spec Ops Elite to Canterlot.

"What's ninshin mean?" Sweetie asked, making Raptor chuckle.

"It means Unworthy Being, or Worm, in my culture." Raptor said.

Grunt

A small creature, short, with hoof like feet that had three toes, hands with four fingers, and a methane gas mask on to breathe, he groaned, his squeaky voice muttering some curses.

"Big alien meanies should stay away from me. Me think they cause trouble!" The Unggoy said, his high pitched voice making all the animals that gathered around him run away.

This Grunts name was Yip Yap, or Yap for short. He got up, his methane tank orange, seeming to be big and bulky, but was loaded with his proper alien breathe, methane. He got up, and checked his Plasma Pistol, the healthy green glowing, meaning it was ready.

"Where is me anyway?" Yap asked himself, looking around. He appeared to be, in what humans call, a Bog. "Me have a bad feeling about this place."

"You have a bad feeling about everything, even morning food nipple!" A voice said, sounding like Yap's, except it was slightly lighter.

"Zip, is that you?" Yap asked, looking towards the other Unggoy right next to him.

"Of course. Me think you need your eyes checked." Zip Hap said, getting up, her bones aching. "Where are we?"

"Me don't know, maybe you should ask those glowing eyes." Yap said, making Zip look at the glowing yellow eyes.

"Those don't look like friendly eyes." Zip said, grabbing her Plasma Pistol. Zip looked like Yap, except she was taller by four inches, and her methane pack was green, not orange.

Suddenly, Four wooden wolf like creatures appeared, eyeing their prey. Yap didn't like the look in their eyes, and charged his plasma up, making a green ball, and fire, hitting the smallest wolf dead on in the face, causing it to burst into flames. Zip and Yap started laughing, seeing the wolf roll around trying to get the green flames of plasma off, only to lie motionless.

The other three started to charge, and Zip brought her plasma grenade out. She pressed the orange button in the middle, and threw it, yelling, "HERE'S ONE FOR YOUR MAMA!"

It landed on the second biggest one, and exploded, killing it, and the other smallest one in a ball of blue flames.

"Oh yeah, double kill!" Zip yelled, not noticing the Alpha running towards her. Yap fire his plasma pistol at it, causing it to catch on fire, and miss Zip by a few inches.

"Dumb animals should know better than to mess with me." Yap said, only to earn a clearing of Zip's throat. "And Zip." Yap added, making the bigger Unggoy smile.

Yap looked around, then started to walk towards a random direction.

"Where are you going?" Zip asked, looking at Yap in confusion.

"Me going to find some where to live. Me don't want to sleep out here, where animals can eat us. Perhaps you can, but me going to find some intelligent, or maybe semi intelligent, race somewhere nearby." Yap answered, causing Zip to be surprised. "What?"

"It's just that, me never heard you speak so smart like, it makes me very happy to know not all grunts are idiots." Zip said, making Yap growl.

Yap sniffed the air a couple of times, then his black eyes widened in fear. "Run!" Yap said, but then an invisible figure grabbed him, it's mandibles pressed together, to look more human like.

It sniffed him a few times, before dropping him. "You two shouldn't be here." A female voice said, coming from the armored Sangheili in front of them. Her white Ultra armor gleaming through the limited sunlight.

"Z, is that you?" Yap asked, making the female Elite nod. He squealed in joy, and hugged her leg. "Me thought me lost you! It is so good to see a friendly Sangheili."

"Yip Yap." Z said.

"Yes?"

"Get off my leg before I make you get off personally." Z said, looking down at the grunt.

Yap blushed, then got off, looking down, finding the dirt to be interesting. Z smiled, and patted his head, causing him to smile.

"You're still the same as I remembered. You may be smart, but you do embarrassing things." Z said, then she would look around, sniffing the air. "We must move and find a settlement. There is one nearby, and I saw a Sangheili on, what looked like a farm."

"You mean there are Elites here. So, that means me going to have trouble here." Yip said, before getting punched on the shoulder by Zip.

"Me think you're just a baby!" Zip said, Z knowing Zip had a plan behind it.

"Oh yeah, well me think you stinky female!" Yap said, then he would look at Z. "No offense."

"None Taken." Z said, then she would grab her Needle Rifle out, tinkering with it.

"Well, me and Z are going. You can stay here and play with yourself!" Zip said playfully, causing Yip to blush.

"Oh yeah! Well...Uhm...Shut up!" Yip said, then, he started to walk off.

"Settlement's the other way." Z said, causing Yip to turn around.

"Me knew that. Me just testing you!" Yip said, trying to regain his pride.

"Yeah, I'm sure you knew the way. Let's go, we're loosing time. If we don't go there now, we may not later." Z said, walking towards the certain town. Yip went in front of the two females, walking on four legs. "So, when you meant Yip had to play with himself..."

"Me no want to talk about it. Brings bad memories for Yip, because females would always go after him." Zip said, giggling. Z only chuckled.

"You two never change." Z remarked.

"Nope. Me and Yip will stick together. You're stuck with us too, weird how we meet like this." Zip said, making the Ultra nod.

Yip suddenly stopped, and looked at the females. "Wait, how long until we get there?"

"Well, maybe a few hours at the least, a day at the most, why?" Z asked.

"Because me have feeling that we're not alone." Yap said, pointing towards plasma burns, ones that didn't come from the three aliens at the time, and these looked a few days old. Yap backed away once he saw a dead lion like animal, with bat wings and a scorpion tail.

"No way a normal Sangheili do this. Must be fast, smart, and deadly to take on that thing." Z noted, then she sniffed the air. "Either Zealot of Field Marshall, but I think it's likely Field Marshall depending how fast the kill was. Either that, or a really violent Zealot." Z said, making Yap tremble in fear.

"Me think that Yap is going to piss himself." Zip whispered to Z, making the Sangheili chuckle.

"Wouldn't be the first grunt to do that." Z said, making Zip look at Yap. "Don't worry, he'll be fine. He's a tough little Unggoy, most of the time, anyways."

Arrivals

Yap was standing in front of a cottage that looked like the one he used saw as a child, except there was a lot more trees and animals. Z and Zip sent him towards here to scout it out to see if there was any enemies. He didn't buy that, but, he wasn't going to enrage an Sangheili. Especially a female one.

"Stupid females with their stupid alliances, and their stupid teaming up against males. Me no think that's fair." Yap muttered, then he turned his COMMs on. "Zara, Zip, are you two there?"

Z growled, and looked at Yap. "You fucking idiot, you use my code name. And yes, we're still here. You barely got twenty meters, and you're already scared, I think Zip was right."

"Why you! When me get my hands on you, me going to-!" Z turned off her COMMs, waited a few seconds, then turned them back on to hear Yap still. "And then me going to shove your Energy sword up your as-!" She turned it off, waited a few more seconds, again, and turned it back on. "Me think that going to teach you lesson."

"Wow, that was a bit...descriptive for me taste." Zip said, staring at Yap with wide eyes. Z then realized that Zip had her COMMs on the entire time.

"No matter. Yap, don't turn on your COMMs unless you need help!" Z said, turning her COMMs off, Zip doing the same. "How long do you think he'll last there?" Z asked in Sangheilian.

"I don't know. He could be dead in a few minutes or a few hours, depending who he pisses off first." Zip said, shrugging. If she spoke English, she sounded like a primitive little human child, same with Yap. But, if they spoke in their native tongue, they spoke perfectly.

"I hope Zara's mate won't be pissed at me for saying all of that. Well, I actually piss Sangheili off daily, why the Hell do I care in the first place?" Yap said as he knocked on the door. "I hope whoever lives here is not female."

The door opened to show a pony like creature, stood as tall as a normal human, but, it had light yellow fur, and wings. It looked like a mix between the Equine like animals from Earth and a Human. It looked around, until Yap cleared his throat, making her glance down.

"Hi." Yap said, earning a scared 'Eep' from the hybrid, and a shut door. "Was it something I said?" Yap asked himself, knowing that the pony like creature wouldn't understand him.

Suddenly, the door opened a crack as Fluttershy would stare at the creature, and whisper a reply. "Please don't eat me."

"Eat you. Me no want to eat furry giant like you. Me like to eat food with straw, not without my mask." Yap said, a little annoyed that the Gods let him down this time, but he knew they would let him up next time.

"Well, I don't think that you're dangerous." Fluttershy said, making the Grunt growl.

"Me plenty dangerous. Me just small so others look past it." Yap said, then, he would look towards Z and Zip's location. "Hey, guys-err-girls, it's alright. She's a friendly!" Yap said, waving to indicate it was alright.

Fluttershy looked at Yap, confused. Why was he speaking like a foal? And why did he speak in a weird language? Suddenly, another creature appeared, it almost looked the same, and it ran over to Yap.

"Her name is Fluttershy. She's a hybrid, who some stupid shit like that, but I'm not going to say that. Anyway, she's friendly, a bit shy though." Yap said, only to earn a smack from Zip.

"Dumbass! You do not let others know of our location unless we know they're friendly!" She said, growling.

Yap rubbed the spot where she hit him, and winced. "Me think that you'd rather stay in the bushes with Z." Yap said, then Zip raised another hand, making him yelp in fear, and hide behind Fluttershy.

"Don't smack him!" Another female voice said, showing an Elite that looked like Raptor, but with different armor. If she knew what it was, Fluttershy would've said it was Ultra armor. "You have to hit him in the temple for a quick knock out. Other than that, he's going to flee."

Zip nodded, then started to walk towards Yap, causing him to tremble in fear. Once she got too close, he started to sprint, surprisingly fast for such a short creature.

"Feet don't fail me now!" Yap screeched, then ran towards Z, and hugged her leg, hoping to the Gods he would be safe. This time though, the Gods answered his prayers.

"Excuse me, but who are you two?" Fluttershy asked, looking between the two females.

Zip stopped trying to pummel Yap, and looked at Fluttershy.

Z would then lift Yap off of her right leg, and set him gently on the ground. "I am Zara, but you may call me Z."

"My name's Zip Gap, Zip for short. Me think that you already know big dummy over here." Zip said, looking at Yap, who growled.

"Me not dumb. Me just not super smart, just like you." Yap said, smiling since he knew he won.

"Oh yeah, me think that Z will want to turn you into mushy food to feed to Kig Yar."

"Don't drag me into this." Z said, going to Fluttershy. "Perhaps we should go inside. Those two will be done in a few minutes, maybe two hours at the most."

Fluttershy only nodded, both tall creatures going into the Cottage.

"Oh yeah, me think that ugly Jackal thinks you ugly too!" Yap said, but before Zip could say anything, Yap poked her. "You getting a little fat too. Me think that you turn to be as fat as Brute, maybe uglier too."

Zip gasped, then growled. "Take that back."

"Nope." Yap said, before he started to run again, laughing like a maniac.

"Get back here you little asshole!" Zip said, chasing him.

Yap suddenly went into the bushes. Zip almost went in, but then Yap came back out, sprinting faster, screaming about a monster. Zip could see tears streaming out of his eyes comically as he ran, making her feel bad for him. He suddenly stopped, and looked at Zip, with fear in his eyes.

Zip followed his gaze, only to look at a pack of the wooden wolves. Five pairs of eyes would stare at them, but turn away, but, they didn't notice a smaller pair of eyes running towards them. Suddenly, it ran past Zip, and tackled onto Yap. Yap squealed, but it wasn't from fear, it was from joy.

"I will hug you, and love you, and pet you, and call you George." Yap said, hugging the little Timberwolf in his arms, causing it to lick him, making the grunt giggle.

Zara came out, Energy Sword in hand, but when she saw Yap with the puppy of a wooden wolf, she deactivated her sword, and put it away. "That's something you don't see everyday."

Fluttershy giggled, seeing Zip run up and pet the new puppy, making the larger grunt giggle.

"So, when do we meet with this 'Raptor'?" Z asked, looking at Fluttershy.

"You'll see him tomorrow. I'm sure he'll be glad to see one of his own kind." Fluttershy said, smiling.

Meet Up

"Yap, how many times have me told you, not to act like that around people?" Zip half screamed, half growled.

"Aww, quit your bitchin'." Yap said, then he thought for a moment. "Quit your bitchin' literally." Yap said, in their language though, causing Zip to growl back.

The three aliens walked on the road of Ponyville, ignoring the strange glances, but no one bothered them. Few actually went up and talked to them, but Zara preferred it like that. Zara stopped and sniffed the air a few times, smelling the stench of...Human?

"Z, was is it?" Yap asked, trying to stop his and Zip's argument.

"That stench...I've smelt it before." Z said, but, she kept on walking towards the Farm. Fluttershy had been nice enough to give Yap the map, since he usually is the one who has to stand there while others read the map.

"Me think it's that way." Yap said in English, and started to head towards the wrong direction. Z picked him up, then turned him around, and pointed towards the Barn.

"I think it's that way." A voice said behind them, making Z turn her Energy Sword on, and swing it towards the voice, letting go of Yap while doing so. Another Energy Sword blocked hers as a Zealot wearing white armor, like the female Ultra in front of him, was standing there. "Zara, nice to see you're still up and kicking." Raptor said, smiling, turning off his Energy Sword.

Zara turned her Energy Sword off, and bowed her head. "Hello, Sir."

"No need for formalities here." Raptor said, then he glanced down at the two Grunts.

Zip was on top of Yap, smacking him. "You *SMACK* are *SMACK* a *SMACK* re- *SMACK* tard!"

"Help me!" Yap said, but Raptor picked Yap up, and looked at him. "Oh, hi Raptor. Me think that you happy to see us."

"Hello Yap, it is good to see an old friend. I hope Zip hasn't been hitting you too hard, right?" Raptor said, looking at the female Grunt.

"Give me back punching bag!" Zip said, jumping up and down in the same place, trying to grab Yap.

Yap squealed in fright, and got out of Raptor's grasp, and held onto the Sangheili's chest plate, out of reach of Zip.

Meanwhile, in the Library.

"So, what will I wear for this date?" Spike asked himself, looking through his closet, then, he smiled when he remembered one important thing. "Wait a second! I don't wear clothes!"

"So, who are you dating?" Six asked, drinking some Iced Tea through his helmet's filters. Before Spike could say anything. "Wait, I get one guess. It's Fluttershy."

Spike stood there, speechless.

"Am I right?" Six asked, looking at Spike, who only nodded. "I'm not surprised."

"Why aren't you surprised?" Spike asked, looking at the mirror, checking if there was any gems in his teeth.

"For one thing, you both are nice. Second off, she seems to like you, and blush whenever you look at her, indicating that she likes you. Third, the girls always look at you, blushing when you flirt and all that shit. Fourth, you are one handsom bastard, and you know that. And last, but not least, bitches be trippin' when you flirt." Six said, then, he looked at Spike. "Any more questions?" Before Spike could ask another, Six spoke. "No? Good. You need to go. Girls don't like it when you're late."

Six pointed to the clock, and Spike followed his gaze. Six then watched Spike walk towards the door. "Wait, Spike, I have to tell you something." Spike would stop, and turn towards Six, as the SPARTAN was saluting. "God speed, you fancy bastard."

Spike saluted back, and ran out, heading towards Fluttershy's house.

"Wonder what Raptor's doing." Six said, sipping his tea. "Probably not something that's boring as Hell."

Meanwhile, at where the aliens are.

"Run away!" Yap screamed as a pink mare started chasing him, causing him to be more frightened. Tears streamed through his eyes, thinking he was going to die. "Help Raptor!"

Raptor quickly whistled, gaining Pinkie's attention. "Listen, if you want to properly scare a Grunt, you have to do it like me." Raptor then walked up to Zip, and breathed in. Zip looked at him, a bit confused at what he was doing. Raptor then let out a primal roar, scaring the living daylights out of Zip, causing her to faint instantly.

"Oh, so that's how it's done." Pinkie said, then he tackled Yap to the ground, hugging him. "You're just a cute little alien, aren't you? You're totally harmless."

"Hey, quit hugging me. Me plenty dangerous, just ask Z over there."

"Don't drag me into this, again." Zara said, watching with mirth.

"Aw, don't get your panties in a knot, I'll help you." Raptor said, walking towards Yap, when a puppy came out, it looked like a Timberwolf, and ran towards Yap, licking, causing the small grunt to giggle.

"George! Stop licking me, and help!" Yap said, but the puppy only started to whimper. "Fine, you can lick me." It then squealed in happiness and started licking the grunt again.

"Friend of yours?" Raptor asked Yap.

"He my pet. Me think me love him when he ran to me and not Zip."

"Explains the angry Timberwolves behind you." Raptor said, pulling out his Energy Sword, Z doing the same.

"Me think you crazy Raptor." Yap said, hugging George.

Pinkie Pinkie's Sense started going crazy, then she looked up to see a pack of Timberwolves, growling at Yap, which she was holding. "Oh hai." Pinkie said, smiling. Raptor quickly tackled them out of the way, and Zara roared at Zip, making her wake up from the large noise.

Zip looked at the Timberwolves, then grabbed her Plasma Pistol, aiming it towards the pack.

Z readied her sword, same with Raptor, and Yap was hugging the Timber puppy.

"Me think that we should run." Yap said to the puppy, as they started to back away.

The Alpha saw this, and snarled, running towards Yap. Yap yelped in fear, and Raptor ran towards Yap, and swiped towards the Alpha Timberwolf.

Fight 2

((Play the song while reading.))

Raptor blocked the Alpha's attack, cutting the Timberwolf in half while doing so. The others growled, or howled, and twenty more Timberwolves appeared behind the first three.

"Son of a bitch!" Raptor swore, seeing Yap run towards the Library.

"Run away!" Yap screamed, holding the Timberpuppy in his arms.

Zip growled, but followed Yap, firing her Plasma Pistol at the Timberwolves. Z readied her blade, and smiled.

"Like old times." Raptor said, chuckling. He then grabbed his Plasma Caster with his left hand, and aimed it at the Timberwolves.

One of the Timberwolves charged, it's impatience showing, but then it's head exploded as a loud crack like thunder echoed. Raptor turned around to see Six standing there, Magnum in his hand.

"So, I guess you left the invites for the party at your house. Guess I'll have to crash it." Six said, walking next to Raptor and Z. "Alright, which one of you timber fucks want to go first?"

One of the smaller ones ran towards Six, snarling. It bit into Six's armor, only to break most of it's teeth. Six stabbed his Kukri into it's skull, and twisted, killing it. He then sheathed his Kukri, and fired his Magnum at the Timberwolves, killing two of them.

Zara roared in happiness as she jumped onto a Timberwolf's back, destroying it's wooden spine, killing it in a instant. She then blocked an attack by a large Timberwolf, making it snarl as it's wooden paw burns from her Energy Sword. Raptor then cut it's head off, killing it as it rolled off to some random direction. Raptor then fired his Plasma Caster at some Timberwolves, burning two of them, and killing one of them.

Six jumped onto a Timberwolf's back, hanging around as it bucked around, trying to get the large SPARTAN off. He then put his Magnum to it's neck, and fired three times, causing it to choke, and gurgle as it fell to the ground Six then jumped off and karate kicked another Timberwolf, breaking it's neck easily.

"This reminds me of a song from the Twenty-First century. They all fine in line, one at a time, ready to play. I can see them anyway." Six said, smiling fondly as he activated the music, the music blaring in his helmet, making him grin like a madman.

All three stood back to back, killing the Timberwolves easily. But then, the Timberwolves would come back together if they weren't too badly damaged. Six cackled like a crazy person as he kept of firing his Magnum. He then heard the loud clicking of a empty magazine. He then holstered his Magnum, and pulled out his Kukri with his right hand, and his military knife with his left.

Zara activated her Energy Dagger as it came out of her left wrist armor, and held the Energy sword with her right hand, her mandibles twitching in anticipation. Raptor stood there, Plasma Caster in his left hand, and energy Sword in his right.

"The last stand, but for who?" Raptor said, smiling as he aimed his Plasma Caster at three Timberwolves.

"Only the strongest will survive!" Z said, readying her Energy blades.

"So, what're we waiting for? Let's kick some ass!" Six said, smirking.

Three Timberwolves charged, one heading for Z, one heading for Raptor, and one heading towards Six. Six smiled as he readied his blades. He then charged as well, same with Z and Raptor. Raptor shot at the Timberwolf, burning it, and cut it in half, smiling as green sap splattered against his armor.

"My blade hungers for blood!" Z yelled in excitement, running around the Timberwolf, cutting it in multiple places in the span of a few seconds.

Six grabbed a Timberwolf, and used it as a living shield at another Timberwolf bit into the shield, only to whimper seeing as it bit it's comrade. Six then used the living shield as a ramp, and rolled off, and stabbed his military knife into his captive, and his Kukri into the attacker's throat, killing both in a matter of seconds. He then landed on another Timberwolf, crushing it's skull with the weight of his armor, and the force of the attack.

Raptor shot at another Timberwolf, making it catch on fire, making it run around and make his comrades burn as well. He then cut a Timberwolf in half as it charged as him, and he kicked another away, firing plasma into it's face, burning it, and making a scar. He let it run away, but then he fire at two others, making them howl in pain as they burned.

Z cut another down with her two Energy blades, causing her to cackle as she felt green sap hit her armor, assuming it was blood. She then kicked another in the face, breaking it's jaw easily, and slice it's limbs off making it howl in pain as she killed it. She then grabbed another by the throat, and impaled it, causing it to squirm as the blade sizzled into it's wooden structure with no problem. She growled into it's dying face, making it whimper in fear.

Six smiled as cut a Timberwolf in multiple places, making it bleed green sap. He then kicked it, making it land into two others, killing all three instantly.

The remaining ones suddenly formed into a large Timberwolf, making a large roar. Suddenly, a big green ball of plasma hit it's face, making it whimper in pain, and cover it's face with its paws. All three warriors turned around to see Yap, laughing like a maniac as he fired multiple balls of green plasma, Zip behind him doing the same.

Raptor then smiled as he planned. "Human."

"What?" Six asked, looking at Raptor.

"I'll need you and Zara to distract the large Timberwolf. I shall jump onto it's head, and kill it." Raptor said, making Z smile creepily.

"You got it split jaw." Six said, smiling, knowing Raptor took no offense to the nickname.

He and Z suddenly lurched forward, running at a incredible speed. The large Timberwolf saw them, and roared, trying to attack them. Seeing his chance, Raptor ran towards the wooden behemoth. He cut the right foreleg, causing it to roar in pain and surprise, and jumped onto it's neck, putting his Plasma weapon on his back. He grabbed his second Energy sword, and activating it, using it to help him climb up the Timberwolf's neck. He then got on of it's head, and cut one of it's ears out, making it roar. He then ran, putting his Energy Swords down as he sliced across the Timberwolf's head.

"Okay, now that-that ain't normal." Zip said, seeing Raptor cut anyway.

Raptor suddenly jumped off the tip of it's maw, and landed on two feet. Behind him, the Timberwolf's head caught on fire, and split in half in a few seconds, making the large Sangheili smile in approval.

"So, who wants lunch?" Six asked, walking towards the Library, acting like nothing happened.

Jorge

A bolt of electricity went through the air, and a black ball opened, electricity shooting out of it over the Everfree forest. Suddenly, two large metal objects went out of it, and the slip space portal closed. One object looked like a Chaingun, and the other a SPARTAN 2. They both hit the ground with a large thudding noise, and a groan was heard.

"Damn Covenant." A Hungarian accent said. This SPARTAN, known as Jorge by Noble Team, sat up, rubbing his head.

He looked around, and spotted his helmet on the forest floor two feet away. Jorge grabbed it, then put it on. "Where am I? Last thing I remembered was activating a slip space drive in a Covie Corvette." Jorge looked around, and picked his railgun up, hoisting it on his shoulder.

"Holland, respond, over?" Jorge said in his radio. "Six? Noble? D.O.T?" Jorge tried again, only to hear static.

'Is this Reach?' Jorge thought, looking around. 'Last time I checked, you don't need armor or weapons in Heaven or Hell.'

Suddenly, Jorge spotted a large red dot on his radar, and turned around to see a...Hydra? Last time he checked, there wasn't a Hydra on Reach.

"Why the Hell is this here? You're supposed to be a myth!" Jorge said, the Hydra only roared, it's four heads looking at their supposed meal. One head suddenly reared back, and lunged, biting Jorge's armor, only to find most of it's teeth breaking, and a yellow electric shield surrounding the SPARTAN.

"So, you want to play that way?" Jorge said, holding his Railgun with two hands. He then pointed it at the Hydra's heads, and fired, destroying two heads with the bullets launching out of the Minigun. "Who's next?" Two more heads then sprouted out of the dead ones, making Jorge smile.

He then readied his weapon, and started firing, the bullets hitting the Hydra's legs, stopping it. He then dropped his railgun, and ran forwards, using his Sprint ability. He then punched the Hydra's stomach, sending it back a few meters. Jorge ran towards his railgun, and grabbed it, firing at it's four heads, each head getting a flurry of bullets. The Hydra dropped, dead on the floor, blood and brain matter oozing out.

"So, I'm not in Reach, and I'm not dead. Time to find out where I am." Jorge said, looking around. He then started to walk in a random direction, heading towards Ponyville.

Six was sitting down, sipping some tea through his filters, when his radio crackled to life. "Six? Noble? D.O.T?" The radio then went to static. Six would look around, surprised.

"No...I thought Jorge was dead!" Six said to himself.

"Who's Jorge?" Spike asked.

"He was a team mate and a friend. He was supposedly KIA when he activated a Slip Space drive in a Covenant Corvette, destroying both the ship, and a Covenant Super Carrier." Six responded, grabbing his Magnum, and holstering it. He then walked outside, and started to look around.

He heard more static, but started to walk towards the Everfree forest. A large invisible figure followed him, it's two toed feet hitting the ground silently.

Jorge looked around. "This isn't a Covenant controlled planet, or else I'd see some Covenant patrols running around."

Suddenly, a rustling of bushes was heard, making Jorge turn around and aim his signature Chaingun at the bush. A EVA helmet came through the bushes, and soon a robotic arm. It made a few hand signals, making Jorge smile.

"Six, good to see you." Jorge said, chuckling.

Six came out of the bushes, holstering his pistol. "Good to see you too." Six said, saluting.

"Where are we?" Jorge asked, hoping for Six to know what planet they were on. "This isn't Reach, or a Covenant planet."

"Well, we're on a planet called Equis, natives are Hydras, Dragons, Manticores, Pony like Humans-Pagasi, Unicorns, and regular Pony like humans- griffons, among other creatures." Six said, shrugging like it was no big deal.

"Wait, so you're telling me a Slip Space drive just so happened to send my on a planet of mythical creatures, and anthro ponies?" Jorge asked, waiting for confirmation.

"Yes sir. And that ain't the best shit to hear. Wait 'til you hear about the Planet's best defense, and their names." Six said, laughing. Suddenly, a twig snapped behind Six, making him pull out his pistol. "Come out with your hands up, or I'll blow your fuckin' head off!"

A large figure formed, to show an Sangheili Zealot, in full armor, standing there, leaning against a tree. "That's no way to treat a friend, SPARTAN." Raptor said, rolling a stick in his fingers. Suddenly, Jorge ran toward Raptor, and stuck a pistol in the middle of his upper jaw. Raptor flexed his mandibles carefully.

"Oh yeah, I forgot to mention Raptor, Zara, who is a Elite Ultra, and two annoying little grunts, Zip and Yap. Don't worry, they work for the UNSC." Six said, calming Jorge down.

"So, you have found one of your SPARTANs?" Raptor asked, eyeing Jorge.

"Yeah, thanks to the big guy. His name is Jorge." Six said, pointing to Jorge.

Jorge pulled his pistol out, and holstered it. Raptor stretched his mandibles instinctively. "Were it so easy?" Raptor muttered, so only Jorge could hear. "We must go, the Timberwolves have caught our scent."

"And they must love the smell of green." Six finished, smiling as he walked off. Jorge and Raptor followed, eyeing each other carefully, but Six either didn't notice, or didn't give a fuck.

"So, what happened while I was gone?" Jorge asked, looking at Six.

"Well, for one we thought you were dead, but after you threw me out of the ship, I started to free fall into the atmosphere of Reach. After I fell, I went up to a dead body, who had a camera attached to it, and grabbed a pistol off the poor guy's hand..." Six said, as he started to tell Jorge what happened to Reach.

"...and then Raptor came along when one of the Zealots tried to stab me, and he shot it, killing his comrade. He then pulled out his Energy Sword, and started to kill the Elites surrounding me until they were dead." Six said, as they were arriving to Ponyville.

"So, I went towards my helmet, picked it up, and grabbed my pistol, which I grabbed ammo for. I looked up to a Covenant ship over head, and then a bright light, probably from it glassing the planet. After that, I woke up here." Six finished, waving to some anthro ponies, who waved back.

Most of the town got used to Six and Raptor, a few were afraid of Zip, Yap, and Zara. But once they saw Jorge, a few actually ran into their houses and locked the doors, closed the curtains, and some went as far as boarding their windows.

"That's strange, I don't remember any of the ponies having any weapons." Six said, Raptor nodding as a stallion took out a sword.

"Kill them!" A stallion shouted out, as a few more ran towards Jorge and Six. One of them got a knife out and got behind Jorge. He raised up his knife, and struck down, only for the metal to sizzle. He looked to his right to find Raptor, flaring his mandibles. Raptor then sliced, cutting the stallion in half.

"The Hell did you do that for?" Six asked, looking at Raptor.

"These are not ponies. See, they're disguises." Raptor said, pointing at the stallion. The stallion had green blood, and his body caught on fire, but the flames were green. It then shows a strange bug like pony hybrid, with hands and saber teeth.

Jorge smiled as he aimed his signature Chaingun at the Changelings. "Alright, so I can kill them." Jorge said, firing his minigun at the changelings.

Seeing their disguises didn't work, they changed to their normal forms. Six and Raptor stood back to back. Six got his Kukri out, and Raptor still had his Energy Sword out.

"So...you take the ones on the left and I take the ones on the right?" Six said, looking around. Raptor only roared the changelings, raising his sword.

The changelings suddenly stopped, and flew away, confusing Jorge, Six, and Raptor.

"The Hell?" Jorge said, turning around. He saw nothing, not a pony like human, or those strange bug ponies. "They just up and left? Why?"

"SPARTAN, something tells me that they didn't do this for no reason. This was supposed to be a trap." Raptor answered, looking around.

"That's weird, all of their eyes were just green, no irises." Six said, then he would walk towards a large tree.

"Alright, now I've seen everything." Jorge said, walking towards the tree house as well. He tried to walk into the doorway, only to hit his head against the frame. He then bent over slightly, fitting in.

"Humans are such weird creatures." Raptor said, following them. He bent down, then went into the doorway without a problem.

Not Afraid

Six snapped a pony's neck, killing him, but then green fire engulfed it, making it look like a mix between a human, pony and bug.

"Changeling." Spike said in disgust.

"Human, this isn't going to work." Z said, cutting a Changeling down. "What are these things?"

"Changelings. They can change into any pony and feed on love." Twilight said, hiding behind Raptor, who was cutting two Changelings with his Energy Sword and his Energy Dagger.

"Six, this isn't working." Jorge said, cutting down a Changeling with his Chaingun, the bullets putting more holes into it.

"We're not alone, remember?" Six said as green fire hit a Changeling, killing it.

Spike quickly cut a Changeling with his claws. Zara threw a extra Energy Sword towards him. Spike caught it, and activated it. Six and Raptor looked at Twilight, who blushed.

"I want to hear this shit later." Six said, but then green plasma passed him and killed a Changeling.

"Oh yeah!" Yap yelled in victory, only to squeal when a Changeling started to run at him. "Feet don't fail me now!" Yap said, running. Suddenly, a Energy Sword cut through the Changeling's head, cutting it off. Yap looked at the Energy Sword and saw Spike.

Spike then threw the Energy sword to Raptor, who grabbed it with his left hand. He then activated that Energy Sword, crossing them.

"Bring it on, monsters." Raptor taunted, standing his ground. A Changeling then charged, only to get cut down.

Six pulled out his Magnum, and started firing, killing Changelings left and right. "I'm out, cover me!" Six said, reloading. "Everyone, outside!" Six ordered, covering them with supporting fire from Jorge.

"For the Queen!" One of the Changeling screeched. All of the Changelings started to charge at Twilight and Spike.

Raptor kicked the lead Changeling's head, snapping it's neck. The changelings would look at their leader, then look at Raptor, who turned his head to look at the other Changelings. He then quickly ran towards one of the Changelings, cutting three of them down in a matter of seconds. Six fired at one of the Changelings, killing it easily. When his weapon clicked, Jorge quickly threw Six a weapon.

"Finally, a real weapon." Six said, loading the Assault Rifle Jorge had threw. He then started firing, killing Changelings left and right. He quickly hit one of the Changelings killing it with the butt of his rifle. He quickly fired at it's back, destroying the body. He quickly reloaded, and looked at others, who looked at him with terror, or impressiveness in their eyes. "The Hell are you standing there for? I thought we were going outside!"

Jorge quickly shooed them out, and followed after firing at a few Changelings. Six followed, giving supporting fire for them. "C'mon Six. We have to go!" Jorge said, Six firing a few more times before he ran out.

"Six, we have to take these things out!" Jorge said, firing at some Changelings.

Suddenly, a Brute Shot fired, killing a Changeling creeping up behind Six. Six turned around to see a strange figure, EVA armor, but with a Brute Shot in his hands. He then sliced one of the Changelings down, making in scream in agony. He then fired at another, making it explode.

"Who's that?" Yap asked, slightly scared of their silent savior.

"Don't know, don't care. I just want to kick some ass with this guy." Six said, nodding towards the Unknown soldier. The SPARTAN 3 nodded back, so both EVA SPARTANs started to slaughter Changelings.

Six punched one in the face with his robotic arm, and the other EVA punched one in the face, bashing its skull in. Both SPARTAN 3s stood back to back, killing Changeling left and right.

"Now this is what I call badass!" Six said, looking at the other SPARTAN, who nodded in agreement.

The SPARTAN quickly punched a Changeling, and used it as a shield, and a other Changeling attempted to impaled him, only to kill it's comrade. Six then cut off the Changeling's horn, and stabbed its horn into the owner's skull, killing the insectoid creature.

The others only stood and watched, not wanting to interrupt the fight. Raptor watched with interest, same with Jorge. Z and Spike only watched with mirth, while Yap, Zip, and Twilight were watching in horror. Raptor chuckled.

"These humans are pretty good. They almost act as one." Raptor commented, seeing Six and the SPARTAN copy each other, hitting at the same time.

Six and the SPARTAN were killing Changelings, until one of them stopped, and made chittering noises. The others suddenly stopped, and started to fly away. Six and the SPARTAN both stopped, seeing their enemies fly away.

"What got them spooked?" Zip asked, her squeaky voice filled with worry.

"Don't know. Hey, bud, what's your name?" Six said, looking at the SPARTAN 3 right next to him.

He only gave a series of growls.

"Meta? Sounds weird. I heard a SPARTAN from a project called Freelancer was Maine, who turned into some guy called the Meta too. Come on, let's get going." Six said, using his helmet to translate what the Meta said.

Unknown Cave: A mile near Ponyville.

A large figure stood there, his neck dropping a bit. He wore the Arbiter armor, he was glaring with all of his rage at Ponyville. A Changeling went right up to him, scared, and gave a series of chitter like noises.

"The Sangheili and Humans working together? Not possible. The demons tricked those poor deluded Covenant soldiers. We shall walk apon the Journey, with no mercy for those who appose us. The Heretics will see the light in due time." The large figure said, giving a deep chuckle. "I may have been tricked by that one human on the Shield World, but now, I won't fail."

The Changeling quivered, before giving some more chitter.

"Your queen will be returned, once your kind is done finding the artifacts. She is not harmed, but if your kind tries to oppose me again, the demons won't be the only ones suffering from the Great Journey." The figure said, activating his Energy Sword to show his face. "Now get to work! My patience will not last forever."

The Changeling squeaked, and ran into the shadows.

These Humans will die by my hands." Ripa Moramee said, laughing as he walked into the cave, the Energy Sword lighting his way.

Monster

Maine stood there, arms crossed as he watched the strange creatures walk around. They looked like Unicorns and Pegasi, then again, these were hybrids. His favorite, Six, was currently sitting down, drinking some tea through his helmet filters.

'Wonder why he's just doing that. It's like he doesn't give a fuck about the world around him...I can respect that.' Maine thought, then turned his attention to Twilight.

"I mean, they were Changelings, but they acted weird." Twilight said, pacing across the room.

"You mean they didn't act like mindless beasts from the last time you encountered them?" Six asked sarcastically, making Maine growl in agreement. "By the way, he agrees with me on that." Six added, seeing Twilight's confused face.

"Anyway, Spike, take a letter!" Twilight said, only to wait a few more moments. "Spike?" She called again.

Maine gave a series of growls, that made Six chuckle. "Yeah, I guess I did forget to tell her." Six said, but then he looked at the Meta. "Don't remind her. I want to see how long it takes her to realize Spike is gone." Six said, making Maine chuckle, but stay quiet.

"Spike?" Twilight said, going upstairs.

Six held up a hand, and smiled. "Five. Four. Three. Two. One."

"Goddess dammit! Celestia damned Dragon is always running off somewhere!" Twilight said, making Six and Maine smile, but both EVA SPARTANs looked like they were minding their own business when Twilight came down. "I can't get a break, can I?"

Six chuckled, and looked at Twilight. "Spike ran off with Fluttershy on some date. Don't worry about Spike, he can take anything."

Maine growled a few times, and Six nodded. Twilight gave Six a confused glance, and sighed. "He said Spike will be fine. Plus, if anything attacks, we have Jorge. From what I've heard, he took down a Hydra with just his Chaingun and fists." Six said, then he looked at Maine. "We really need to get your throat fixed up."

Maine growled, then chuckled. Six started laughing. "There's no way in Hell Fluttershy would do that to Spike!" Six exclaimed, causing both SPARTANs to laugh.

"What'd he say?" AJ asked, walking into the conversation.

"I can't really translate that last part out. But it involves Spike, Fluttershy, a bed, and the birds and the bees." Six said, making AJ and Twilight blush. "But Flutters is too shy. Besides, with Raptor, Z, Zip, and Yap, you got your hands full." Six pointed out to AJ.

"Well, Zip and Yap are like the kids, and they joined mah little sister's club called the Cutie Mark Crusaders. Don't know why though, Ah heard they don't get Cutie Marks." AJ said, shrugging. "An' Raptor and Z help Big Mac with the work, so we'll be done early this year."

"That's good news." Six said, and Maine growled a couple of times, nodding in agreement.

"Thank ya Maine...Ah think." AJ said, making Maine chuckle.

Maine growled a few times, making Six nod. "Well, I don't think Spike would do that. He's like a kid. How old is Spike anyway?" Six asked, looking at Twilight.

"I hatched him when I was four, so, he's twenty two." Twilight said, making Six cough as he choked on some tea.

"Holy shit! He's older than me!" Six said, but Maine growled a few times, making Six nod. "Well, it does make sense. I was in slip space, so I might've aged a bit. How old are you Maine?"

Maine counted in his head, then growled, making Six look at Maine, confused. "Wait, you're that old?" Maine nodded. "Well, you seem like your thirty, not a twenty...then again, we're probably older than these guys, if we didn't go into cryo sleep."

"Worthless drones!" A voice yelled, making a few changelings back off. "These worthless demons can take out a squad of your best trained warriors without a problem?"

"But, sssir-!"

Suddenly, a energy sword went through the changelings skull, making it fall to the floor.

Ripta roared, his mandibles splaying out at the dead bug before him.

"Tartarus damned demons!" He said, before a nervous cough caught his attention. Ripta looked to see a female changeling. "What?"

She flinched, expecting a hit. Once the large elite calmed down, she spoke, "We have done what you have asked, and we were wondering if you'd-"

A growl escaped the Sangheili, making the changeling run back into a group.

"Your leader is my prisoner until you capture the Zealot and demon." Ripta said, before cutting down another changeling, making the female ones back away, but the males grabbed their weapons.

Suddenly, grunts and Kig-Yar flooded the room, pointing their plasma weapons at the male changelings. The Arbiter smiled, his energy sword in hand. He then gave a bark like roar, making all the males but one, the leader, drop their weapons.

"Riptaa, what should we do with them?" A gold elite asked, making Riptaa smile evily.

He suddenly cut the leader changeling's head off, cackling. "Execute them. They stand in the way of the Great Journey."

Suddenly, the Kig-Yar and Unggoy raised their weapons, raining plasma on the 'rebels'. Riptaa walked away. As much as he loved to see weaker specifies beg for mercy, which he didn't have, he had other matters to attend to.

He opened a door, seeing a tied up changeling Queen, and another female right next to her.

"Miss me?" Riptaa asked, turning his energy swords off.

"Fuck you!" The young female said, before facing a smirking elite.

"Your queen has already surrendered. Why don't you?" He asked, seeing the female glaring at him, then looking to the older one.

"Because you'll rule with a iron fist!" She replied, making the Sangeheili cackle.

"Don't you get it? I already rule!" Riptaa said, opening a large window to show thousands of changelings. But that's not what the young one was looking at.

A large, purple, Covenant Corvette hovered lazily over them, ships darting to and fro near and around it.

A Phantom suddenly hovered over the large mass, Elites and Brutes coming down and killing possible rebels.

"I have already won." Riptaa said, not noticing the female get loose, and stalk towards him, a dagger in hand.

She struck it against him; only for it to break against his armor, much to her horror.

He turned far too quickly for a creature his size, and grabbed her throat with his four finger hand. Riptaa gave her a harsh glare.

"Big mistake, worm!" Riptaa spat angrily.

"Monster!" She shouted, before she got thrown at the bed.

Empire

The sound of screeching meet Spartan's ears, making him cock his Magnum. The sounds of Elite roaring and Brutes cursing in their languages. He started to blind fire into the crowd of Covenant, making two Grunts fall, glowing blood meeting the Spartan's gaze.

He pulled his Assault Rifle and fired it with his right hand, killing some Jackals with the blind fire. The sound of plasma hit his cover, the Spartan giving a silent glare.

The Marines next to him kept firing their Assault Rifles, before one of them screamed in pain, blue plasma hailing on him. His chest exploded out with blood, his armor unused to such brutal force.

A Skirmisher gave a throaty victory call, before its head exploded into a puddle of purple. A Brute roared in anger, before being pelted with bullets, destroying its armor, killing it.

The two sides exchanged fire and plasma without mercy, both sides intent on destroying the other. A Marine yelled in pain, a pink needle lodged in his shoulder. Another tried pulling it out, before another man fell, his head pierced by a pink needle.

The sound of battle echoed out from the scarred battlefield. Metal corpses of machines, both Covenant and UNSC were on the, used to be peaceful, field, long grass decorating what remained of the plains.

The crashed UNSC Frigate sported flames that were caused by a Covenant ship, floating above the battle. Banshees screamed by, firing plasma at the UNSC soldiers. A remaining SCORPION tank fired into the air, landing a lucky hit, destroying a Banshee, making it crash into the line of Covenant.

The SCORPION kept firing, its massive cannon firing into a Phantom multiple times, turning it into a ball of blue and red flames, crushing some of the Covenant, injuring others.

The squad of Marines kept firing, their bullets forcing a Hunter back, using its shield to try and protect itself. This proved ineffective as a grenade landed on its armor, turning into a pile of armor and dead worms.

An Elite roared in anger, rushing forward, stabbing a Marine in the chest with its Energy Sword. It roared, throwing the body off, before it was pumped full of bullets.

They kept firing, before a plasma grenade hit the Marine on his chest, causing him to explode into a ball of blue plasma, blood painting the Spartan and his remaining Marines. The blast vaporized half of another body, before a pink needle slammed into another Marine, forcing him toe vaporize in the blue ball of plasma.

The Spartan flew from his cover, dirt and rocks landing with him. His weapons fell of the ground, the Elite and Brutes laughing in victory. A big, green ball of plasma erupted from a Banshee, flying past the SPARTAN.

The green ball hit the SCORPION, making it explode into a ball of fire and plasma, green and red flames decorating its metal corpse. The Spartan groaned in pain, before reaching for his weapons, the sound of thumping coming close.

A two toed foot slammed on the Assault Rifle, breaking it. The Spartan looked up, seeing the Elite's split jawed face glare at him. It raised its Needler, giving the sound of a chuckle, its jaws coming together to form a smile.

BOOM!

The sound made both Covenant and UNSC stop in their tracks. They looked up, seeing the faint shape of a ship, but it was neither UNSC or Covenant, which made them both frown. Two more shapes joined it, before red beams of light hit the Covenant ship.

Both sides watched as the beam cut right through the ship, the Covenant trying to fire back. Blue plasma hit the red beams, before suddenly, a screeching sound went by, but it wasn't by the Covenant.

Green beams cut through the air, making a Banshee crash into the line of the Covenant. A ship, looking like two vertical wings and a big ball in the middle, flew by, firing green beams of light as it screamed by.

The Spartan felt around, then grabbed something, feeling it activate in his hands. He then knew it was an Energy Sword, then stood up, the blue-white blades in his hand making it nod in satisfaction.

The sounds of the ships screamed by, before the massive Covenant ship started to "sink" in the air, lowering to the ground, slamming into the ground, making the ground shake. Smoke billowed from the ship as it hit the ground with enough force to make both UNSC and Covenant hit the ground with their bodies.

The Spartan was the first to get up, seeing a massive ship start to touch down, soldiers wearing white armor meeting its silent gaze. The sound of foot steps behind them as well, making the Spartan realize they were surrounded. A Marine next to him started to cough uncontrollably, making the Spartan look, to check if he was alright.

The Marine, as the Spartan saw, was being held up by...nothing. He was being choked by some invisible force, but a quick glance to the Covenant showed they were too stunned to even move. The Marine kept making the sounds of being strangled, before being launched towards another, snapping both of their necks.

The soldiers, wearing white armor, aimed their grey weapons, the black, "T" shape of their visors showing nothing but the reflection of the Spartans and the Marines.

A strange sound erupted from the ship, like heavy breathing. The Spartan readied the Energy Sword in his hand, before seeing a shape show in the smoke of the ship's entrance. The figure word a black cape, wearing a mask that looked like a robot's face, heavy breathing coming from the mask. Its armor looked heavy, with buttons on its chest.

The white armored soldiers took their aim, before the figure put a hand up a little, a black, long object coming from its cloak. It then pressed a button, before a long, red light came out, like a saber of some kind.

"Kill them all. Leave the armored one to me..." The firgure ordered, its heavy, booming voice showing he was not to be toyed with.

The white armored soldiers started firing, killing an Elite with one shot to the chest, its beam going right through its shielding and into its chest. The other troopers started firing, like a storm of death, making both UNSC and Covenant fall.

The Spartan rushed forward, slicing one of them in half, then stabbing another. The large figure started to walk forward, its soulless mask trained on the Spartan. Beams of red kept firing, bullets and plasma heading towards the troopers. They kept walking, some falling from Plasma or a lucky shot from a bullet.

The Spartan rushed forward, swinging, before the red saber caught the Energy Sword, causing both Spartan and figure to struggle for power. Suddenly, lighting shot from the figure's fingers, causing electricity to surge through its armor. It gave a cry of pain, before being lifted up, the Energy Sword dropping to the ground.

The figure moved its hand to the side quickly, send the Spartan through a crashed Pelican, making the green metal dent. The Spartan felt weightless again, before being sent through the air again, slamming into a boulder, the rock cracking, sparks of electricity shooting through the cracks of its armor. The Spartan was suddenly thrown towards the figure, seeing the figure raise his sword.

The sound of metal sizzling met everyone ears, both UNSC and Covenant stopping to see the Spartan impaled with the saber. The Spartan was thrown to the side, its armor sizzled from the heat of the light.

"Finish up here." The figure said, the soldiers nodding in silence. "Do not fail me, clones. The Empire is rising, and we don't need anyone trying to stop it."

A Hero Reborn

Six awoke, giving a gasp as he did so. He was drenched in sweat, his hand on his Kukri, ready to pull it out. He looked around, before seeing his EVA helmet on the ground. His eyes, forest green, stared at the lifeless helmet, before he saw the rest of his armor on the ground. He looked at the time, before sighing heavily.

'Four hours 'til I drop.' He thought to himself, before getting up, his joints popping.

He allowed himself no comfort for himself as he started to put his armor on, seeing the black metal shine at him. His looked at his robotic arm, seeing it glare at him, as if it was a reminder of mistakes from the past. He slowly put his chest piece on, feeling the weight on him, making him smile, showing his fang like canine teeth.

The dull clanking metal met his ears, making him pull his helmet on, the large visor covering his messy brown hair. An ODST soldier opened the door, seeing Six get up, towering over the ODST.

"Spartan, you're up." The ODST said, making Six nod. Back then, he wasn't part of Noble Team. No, he was just a normal Spartan taking out Insurrectionists on a day to day basis.

Back then, he was just known as "X", since he was silent most of the time. It wasn't his real name, but he didn't talk much back then. He gave a silent nod, making the ODST walk away, Hunter following behind.

The sounds of Marines and ODSTs met him, but they all stopped when they saw him. They stared at him, not noticing that the Spartan was getting uncomfortable under their collective gaze.

X kept walking, seeing massive letters saying "MESS HALL", making the Spartan chuckle silently. He grabbed a tray, then moved down, ignoring the stares he gotten. After a moment, they all resumed to their chats, Hunter walking over to a table.

He sat down, the Marines at the edge of the table giving a look; which looked similar to fear. They started to walk off, along with some other Marines sitting at nearby tables.

He looked down to the food, giving a silent stare at the slop before him. He grabbed the fork, but, it felt so alien in his hand. He then shoveled it into the slop, before lifting his helmet a little, showing his face, which had not been shaved in the last few days. He bit into the food, giving a silent complaint as how bland it tasted.

"Hey, wait, Mosura, don't go over there!" Someone whispered loudly, but X could hear them, loud and clear.

A female ODST sat in front of him, X lowering his helmet as she did so. She had a peaceful aura around her, making X smile a little. She had blonde hair, baby blue eyes, and looked slim, however, X knew she was strong. She had a small scar on her chin, but X looked down at his food, not wanting to think about scars.

"Hello." She greeted, making X look back at her, his visor reflecting what he was looking at. "My name's Mosura, what's yours?"

X looked at her hand, as she reached over, X guarding up. She however, opened her hand, giving a sweet smile, then X realized that she was waiting for a hand shake. He then grabbed her hand gently with his robotic hand, giving her a hand shake.

"They call me X." X said, making her smile. "Nice to meet you, Mosura."

No one in the Mess Hall had heard X speak, making their jaws drop that only one ODST female was able to do in less than a minute of meeting him. X smiled under his helmet, but Mosura couldn't see it. She gave a giggle, before another man sat there, almost X's height.

"Mothra, SPARTAN." He greeted, making Mosura smile, though she rolled her eyes. "I am Drako Hellridge, but you can call me Gojira."

The man stood to be six foot eight, having forest green eyes, and white, spiked hair. He had a large scar over his right eye, however, he wasn't blind, thankfully. He had tan skin, comparing to Mosura's white skin. He smiled, showing his fang like canines, making X chuckle lightly.

"Nice to meet you, Gojira." X said, two more ODSTs joining the table, named Rodan and Anguirus, as they started to chat with X. X had talked to soldiers before, but, this bunch was friendly to him, making him feel warm. However, the feeling was cut short when an alarm blared loudly, making X pulled his Assault Rifle out, nodding to the four ODSTs.

_________________________________

The sounds of battle met the black "T" shaped visor of a Clone trooper. He raised his weapon to fire, the blue beams of light from his weapon. He ran forward, his brothers running forward as well, beams of red light flying by his head.

He quickly took cover, one of his brothers next to him not as lucky, red beams hitting his chest multiple times, piercing his chest, killing him instantly. This made the helmet of the Clone stare at the body, before he started to fire at the advancing droids.

Two of the droids, known as Destroyer Droids, rolled onto the battle, before slowly standing up on three legs. A bubble like shield was put around them, before their 'hands' started to fire twin beams of red lights at a rapid pace, making the Clone take cover.

Something flew by him, making the Clone look over; it was another Clone. This one was bulky, wearing black, special operations armor, and had a detpack on his back. He fired his blaster, destroying a Super Battle Droid with a onslaught of beams.

It then punched a droid, a visblade erupting out of his wrist armor, the blade cutting through the metal easily. He then started firing his blaster, hitting three droids in the chest with a spray of beams.

He then took cover, reloading his blaster. He then started to fire, hitting the shield of the Destroyer Droid. It turned, firing its blasters at him, making him take cover.

A small grenade slowly rolled into one of the shields, passing through. Electricity exploded out, frying the shielded droid, making it shut down. The Destroyer Droid kept firing at the Commando before it was distracted by something slowly rolling into its shield. It turned out to be a grenade, exploding in an instant.

The destroyed droids littered the battlefield, along with the white armored Clones, the desert showing the sand covered bodies. The Commando and Clone high-fived, before the sounds of explosions rocked the air, two bodies of Clone flying past the two.

They aimed their weapons through the smoke of the battle, before three Clones came out, an orange glow around their bodies. One of them was crushed instantly, before a beam of orange light turned the second into ashes. The third was cut in hald, the outlines of massive forms coming through the smoke.

"Humans. You don't know when to quit, do you?" A voice asked, before the Clone was pulled into the fog, his scream heard before his body was shown, small, orange bits floating into the air. "First the Mantle is taken by some human I despise, and now I find I'm on a planet with nothing but humans. I shall find a way to make the armored one pay."

The figure was shown, orange glows coming out of his armor, two large masses coming to his sides. Most of his body was unseen, thanks to the smoke, however, the "face" of the bipedal creature made the Commando stare. The creature made a quick motion with his hand, before one of the masses jumped onto the Commando, its mask opening to give an ungodly screech as an orange, glowing skull was its face.

SPARTAN

"You, are SPARTANs. Humanity's last hope for fighting the Rebels. This war has gone far too long without a winning side for anyone. Catherine Halsey made sure that the UNSC had soldiers that could do their jobs. That's where you come in. You are SPARTANs, ready to fight and die by order and mission." The instructor yelled, her voice carrying on through the room.

Six, who had been there throughout the speech, was sharpening his kukri on his armor. He noticed the nearest SPARTAN looked at him like he was crazy. Six only grunted in response, then put his kukri away, dividing the attention away from him.

"Listen Six. Your mission is to stop a Zealot and Spec ops Sangheili at a hospital. They think that our data module is there. If they find out they're wrong, then they'll kill all of the people inside until they find it." The commander said, making Six nod.

"Yes sir." Was all he said as he readied his Assault Rifle a magnum. He then put on his jetpack, and jumped off the pelican. He activated his jetpack, slowing his fall. As he landed infront of the hospital, a needle rifle shot his jetpack as he landed, making it useless. He took it off, then ran in the hospital.

"Sir, glad you made it. We're missing a team. We found team one and two dead, plasma burns on them. The other team is a lost contact right now, making it impossible to track them." A marine said, his gruff voice catching Six's attention immediately.

"I'll look for the team. You stay here and tend to the wounded." Six said, then he ran into the hallway, leaving the group as he rounded the corner.

Six woke up, his black armor shifting a bit. He got up, his magnum still there on his holster. "Fucking nightmares." Six said as he got up, his joints popping as he started to move.

He started to walk towards the town he saw earlier, his black armor helping him stay in the shadows easily. He then noticed something following him on his mini map. He put his hand on his pistol readying it if he needed it.

He then noticed something on the ground; one of the wolf creatures he encountered. Except, this time, it was cut in half, burning embers around it.

"If someone or something survived the crash, then that means there's a more likely chance of the Covenant here aswell." Six said but something caught his eye. "Is that a...town?"
