Halo:battle for Equis

August 22, 2552 (one month after the Elements of Harmony were found)

Golden Oaks Library, Ponyville, Equestria

The day after Applejack and Rarity stayed over the night, Twilight was checking if any books were damaged from the storm. "Okay, all the books are organized and alphabetized. Spike and Matthew, how is the new bookshelf coming?" She asks the two.

"It's coming along, just have to let it sit for a while until the glue sets in," Matthew said.

It's been a month since they moved to Ponyville and Matthew was friends with, Fluttershy, Pinkie pie, Rarity, Applejack, and Rainbow Dash. He would hang out with Fluttershy, Applejack, or Rainbow Dash.  Matthew doesn't hate Rarity or Pinkie pie, he just doesn't want to hang out with them a lot. With Rarity, she tried to get him in different clothes or be her living mannequin and with Pinkie Pie, she tries to throw him a surprise party, regardless how much he says no. Then there's Lyra. She stalks him when he's alone, asking him questions as fast as Pinkie Pie, so he tries to stay inside as long as possible. After cleaning the library they made a quick meal. Twilight and Matthew had a salad and Spike a bowl of Sapphires.

After dinner they all took showers. They said goodnight and went to bed. It didn't take long for them to sleep, except for Twilight, as she was still thinking about the question she asked Princess Celestia a month ago. ‘’Is there life out in the stars, waiting to be discovered?'’ She thought before going to bed.

Twilight’s dream.

She woke up to thunderous booms and ponies screaming and yelling orders. Twilight walked outside to see most of Ponyville in ruins and the sky looked like it was on fire. She then smelled something that almost made her puke. As she navigated through the debris and some unknown bodies, some ranging from small aliens with gas mask to giant worm like creatures with some sort of glowing cannon and shield. She heard fighting near Sweet Apple Acres. She ran to the apple orchard and saw the same aliens from town and to her shock, humans wearing some type of armor and using what looks like a black box and a barrel at the end. The thing made a bright light at the end and made a loud noise.

She saw a smoke line hit one of the bird like aliens in the head, killing it instantly. Twilight heard rumbling and the same noise in the sky. She looked up and saw small purple fliers fighting a bigger olive colored airship before the smaller one exploded. Twilight saw a bird like creature wielding some sort of transparent shield and a C-shaped weapon with a green lighting near the end of the weapon before exploding by an explosion created by a small rock. She heard voices talking before stopping. She wondered why they stopped. When a blue ball of light passes by her, making her duck behind debris.

She was starting to cry when she felt pain in her left arm. She looked over and her eyes widened at her arm. A small part of her arm was burned and the muscles were showing. Twilight heard more firing and loud cries of agony. She poked her head up and saw two black armored humans walking where she was. Twilight was scared that they would kill her. She heard them stop moving. She looked up and saw them standing in front of her.

One of them asked, "Are you hurt?" Twilight nodded and showed her arm and winced from the movement.  One of them grabbed a small canister and applied some type of foam onto her arm.

The same one asked, "Is your name Twilight Sparkle?" Twilight nodded.

The second soldier said, "One of the ponies asked us to find you. She goes by the name Rainbow Dash."

She looked at them and said, “Where are my friends at?"

"They are on the U.N.S.C Omaha in orbit. We need you to get on board, follow us," the first one said. She nodded and stood up. When she did, they started to walk to the evacuation site. The walk was uneventful until they were 600 feet away, then they heard a buzzing noise coming from behind them.

One of the soldiers turned around and yelled, "Shit, drones incoming!" He then turned to

Twilight and said, “We want you to start running that way," he pointed to Applejack's house. "And don't stop, do you understand?" She nodded and started running before hearing, what the soldiers called plasma fire and gunfire. She turned around and saw what looked like bugs with arms and legs killing and dragging the dead soldiers’ bodies away from site.

Twilight started to run again, but she thought “What are those things?” She heard roaring and explosions. She turned around and saw what she thought to be carriages without horses to pull it and a big blue vehicle that shot blue fire that exploded on impact. One of them saw her and turned to her location. She immediately ran to hide, but tripped on something. Twilight looked and she instantly puked.  What she saw was a human body without its head and some missing organs, making it look like something ate the person.

Twilight then heard Rainbow Dash’s voice yelling to her, "Over here," she looked to the hovering airship and saw Rainbow with, in her opinion, three tall armored humans, one wielding a long barreled rifle and the other two smaller smgs. Rainbow Dash says with an air of authority and respect.  As Twilight asked what happened to the others. Before Rainbow Dash said anything the ship shook violently and they started to float, signaling them they're falling. They saw how fast they were getting to the ground. Twilight and Rainbow Dash started screaming as the ship hit the ground.

Reality

Twilight woke up as the dream was over and she looked out the window. She saw that everything was normal, no fighting or dead bodies anywhere. Twilight went and checked on Spike and Matthew before going to bed, but before succumbing to sleep, she thought, “what if this actually happens?”
