Spartan-C374, a Spartan-IV, has crashed onto a planet containing Colorful and intelligent horses. All of whom are in incredible danger by the parasite we all know and love.

Hello, I am Spartan-C374 of the UNSC Serenity. I have crashed on an undiscovered alien world with several species of sentient life, and are under threat by that horrid parasite. If anybody is hearing this, hopefully either Human, or our now Covenant allies, please send help, or we may all be doomed…

Chapter 2

Overlooking the Dreamscape and scouring for any nightmares that might be plaguing her ponies, Princess Luna noticed a particularly black cloud. She was surprised that it was in the middle of the Everfree forest. Right where she saw an object fall from the sky and crash. Curious, Luna dived into the dream, where she was overwhelmed by the landscape before her. She saw a massive city made up building that reached into the skies and even beyond the clouds. *Who could build such tall structures? Luna thought, before she took flight into the direction of where the dreamer was. Just as she did so, she heard a loud roar that seemed to shake the ground and her, to the very core.*

Looking up at the source, she saw a giant purple flying ship obliterate a smaller, grey one. Her eyes widened as she saw it happen. No sooner that it finished, that much smaller purple ship start coming out of the larger one. She once again flew over to the dreamer, who was much closer to the city than she was. When she was close enough to see the dreamer, she gasped, realizing that the nightmare wasn't coming from a pony, but from something else, something that had a small mane on it's head and had no fur. It also seemed to be wearing some kind of clothes, judging by its size comparing to the other ones in the area, she guessed it was young, maybe around 5. Looking back to the sky she noticed that one of those smaller purple ships flew into the area, and is dropping some even weirder looking bipeds. They all looked different. There was a larger, intimidating one. It seemed to have donned a strange armor that seemed to radiate authority. It was also Purple, with sharp edges and it was glowing blue in some parts, which also to seem to slowly shift. It wielded a strange glowing blade. It seemed to have some shorter bird like creatures with it, and they wielded a sort of strange looking crossbow with pink crystals sticking out of it. Luna noticed that the dreamer was no longer nearby. She looked around and noticed it seemed to have hid, with it's eye wide open. She faced the new creatures that arrived, and was about to speak before they opened fire on the furless creatures, immediately killing a few. The larger one with the sword, ran, and stabbed one of them, generating a hiss, before throwing the lifeless body onto the ground and moving onto it's next target.

Luna looked on in horror, wondering why they were doing this to those who looked like they had done nothing wrong. She walked over to the dreamer, and wrapped her wing around it, trying to comfort the creature. It immediately hugged her in tears. Suddenly, a loud crash was heard nearby. Luna swiveled her head to the startlingly loud noise, and noticed it opening. She noticed several figures step out of what seemed to be a pod, each wearing armor of some kind. The one with the orange visor and green armor seemed to speak to the ones behind it.

"ODST's, clear the area of any covenant, then rescue the civies and call in a pelican! Let's Move!" it shouted, charging and firing a weapon that all of these 'Odst's' also seemed to carry at the large purple biped. Revealing some sort of magical forcefield, which seemed to burst after a few seconds, before continuing to fire and killing it. Luna had stood up to get a closer look at the pod before looking back to the dreamer, noticing, in horror that one of the bird things was aiming at it and immediately started charging a spell, but not before being interrupted by the soldier who gave the other soldiers the order and firing upon the bird, killing it.

"You okay kid?" The soldier in green armor asked the dreamer. It nodded slowly seeming to admire the soldier, and then glancing at Luna, and then hugged the soldier. When the loud weapon noises stopped, the dreamer then looked around, and noticed two bodies in particular. It gasped and ran over to them. Luna walked close enough to hear anything it might say.

"M-Mom? D-D-Dad?" It stuttered, before bursting into tears. Luna decided to look away, and immediately regretted doing so. As the huge purple ship was now looming over the city, a sort of hole near the front of it glowing red. Seconds later, the hole continued glowing brighter and brighter before unleashing a giant red beam, which instantly made the sky turn a hue of red. The temperature instantly rose by several degrees. The ship started roaring, drowning out the dreamer crying. Luna could only watch on in awe and horror, knowing that beam cannot possibly be good. She noticed large flames growing throughout the city, which started collapsing as the beam continued. Seconds later, the city is nothing but molten land and what appears to be glass. The ship started slowly moving forward, moving the beam and destroying the land.

Minutes later, a few large grey metal birds showed up, picking up the soldiers and any civilians in the area. Luna had noticed the metal birds looked similar to the thing that crashed into the Everfree. She decided to leave the dream seeing that it was ending anyway, and try and forget what happened, even though she knew that she would never be able to forget that.

                                                                                             ~~~

  I woke up with sweat on my face, somewhat disturbed by the memory I dreamed about. I noticed something was off in the dream. I stand up from the metal floor, pondering for a few minutes about what was wrong. I smacked myself in the face once I realized that there was a strange blue horse in the dream. Why was it there? Does it signify something?

  "That's something for another time." I muttered to myself, not that there was anybody else anywhere near me. I opened the troop bay door, I noticed it was early morning, if I had to assume. I walked out, closing the bay door. I just realized that I need get a good look at the landscape in case there is anything I could do. Despite how unlikely it might be, there could be intelligent life here. I just hope to god it isn't the covenant. Wait, if it was the covenant, they would have seen the crash and inspected it by now. I thought. So deciding it's atleast relatively safe, I decided to look around for a vantage point. Noticing a rather small mountain nearby, which only rose above the trees by maybe a few hundred feet. I walked in the mountains general direction. I also happened to notice that it's quite. As if the wildlife shut up like it would end them. Pulling out my Battle rifle, I walked a little more cautiously, in case theres anything much more dangerous than those Wooden wolves. As I approached the mountain, small creatures, which seemed similar to the ones on earth, run away as they heard me. On the way, I noticed statues of small creatures, to large ones kind of like alligators or something. No way this can be man made or whatever, the statues are TOO accurate. I thought.

  I noticed the head of what seemed to be a chicken poking out of a bush facing away from me. Ignoring it, I continued to the mountain, the trip being uneventful other than that area full of statues. Gripping some stone, I started climbing the mountain, with minimal effort. About what seemed to be halfway up, I heard a low growl from behind me.

Chapter 3

  Accompanying the growl were wingbeats. I twisted my head around to look at what it was. It looked like a dragon from mythology. It was easily bigger than the pelican by at least three times. It's scales were a rust color, it's eyes were slitted with purple iris's. I scrambled towards the biggest ledge I could. Based off what I know of dragons, it was probably carnivorous, meaning that it would likely try to eat me, but dragons aren't real. Right? Once I was on the ledge, I turned to face the dragon thing, which had started snickering.

What the fuck? I thought, surprised. I grabbed my battle rifle from my back and aimed. The lizard dragon thing seemed to look like it would be raising one of its eyebrows.

  "What are you doing on my mountain?" It asked. I barely stopped myself from pulling the trigger. Of all the planets I could have crashed on, it HAD to be one with intelligent dragon things. I have no idea how strong this thing might be, and whether or not its scales were bulletproof. So I did what any sane spartan would do, and there are few of those.

  "What the hell are you?" I asked, almost hesitantly. It looked surprised when I asked that. Before it started laughing.

  "You almost had me there. Pretending to not know what a dragon is. But really, why are you on MY mountain?" It asked, more impatient than anything. Well my question was answered. I would rather not fight a dragon, because killing one, or severely injuring it, would probably attract unwanted attention.

  "I don't know where I am, so I'm using the mountain to gain information on the landscape to figure it out," I said. The dragon seemed to think about it for a few minutes.

  "Any funny business, and you die," It replied. Despite being a Spartan, I had no trouble believing that, so I nodded. It backed off a bit, but kept an eye on me. I turned around and continued to scale the mountain. It wasn't too long before I got to the top. I started to record my surroundings with my helmet cam so I could analyze it later. When I finished, I slid down the mountain. About halfway down I hit a ledge, making me stumble down the rest of the mountain like an idiot. It felt like forever before I reached the bottom, with my shields depleted. I could almost swear the universe was laughing at me.

  I slowly stood back up, disoriented. Shaking my head, I regained my bearings. I was where I first started climbing the mountain, oddly enough. I started for the direction of my crashed pelican. I passed by the creepy area with the statues. I saw a chicken sticking its head of a bush, watching me pass, with curiosity, yet malice. Other than that and some glowing eyes that resembled the ones the wooden wolves had watching me, the trip back to the pelican was uneventful.

  I opened the pelicans bay door and went inside, and then closing it. I had just brought up the footage of the landscape when I heard what seemed to be something speaking. I closed the footage, then activated my promethean vision to see what it was. Strangely enough, all I saw were small horses surrounding the pelican. I turned off the promethean vision, drew my Battle rifle, pressed the button to open the bay door, and took cover behind a small crate. I heard a few startled gasps, confusing me.

  "S-Show yourself!" I heard a male voice speak, and I assumed it was one of the horses, since they were the only things nearby other than trees. I peeked over my relatively tiny cover, and I saw them somehow holding spears, pointed at the entrance of the pelican. They didn't look very dangerous, and they definitely weren't Covenant. I cautiously rose, aiming my Battle rifle at them. Only then did I notice they all looked EXACTLY the same.

  "What are you?" One spoke, this one female, and I looked to her.

  "Your worst nightmare," I said, smirking. They tensed. "I'm just fucking with you. I'm actually a human. I could ask you the same question, because normal horses don't speak, or carry weapons and armor."

  "Are you an alien?" Another one asked. If they saw me and my pelican fall from space, then why wouldn't I be an alien?

  "Well, you see, to me, YOUR the aliens," I said, slightly lowering my weapon.

  "You are coming with us, back to Canterlot," This one must be the squad leader. He also looked looked a little different then the other ones.

  "I think i'll pass," I replied. My answer didn't please him.

  "You don't have a choice in the matter," The leader snapped. I chuckled.

  "What are you gonna do? Poke me with those sticks? I could snap them like twigs," I taunted. Now he looked pissed. He shot a beam of something from an appendage sticking out from his head, damaging my shields a little. He looked surprised. I was confused, but on instinct I aimed my weapon, but didn't shoot. I didn't wan't to make the same impression the Covenant had on us. "What the hell was that?" His horn thing glowed, and then shot another beam, this one shattering my shields and striking painlessly against me. I was once again, confused, but then I started feeling strangely tired, and after a few seconds, my vision faded away to darkness.

Chapter 1

I hear alarms blaring as I awake from cryo sleep. Wait. Alarms? What's going on? I pull the manual release and give the marine that woke me up a look of confusion.

"Sir, you are required on the bridge. Head to the armory and get suited up, and I'll lead you there," the marine says, motioning me to get going.
