"I'm glad you could make my grateful student. I'm sure you've known about other galaxies right?", The alicorn Princess said. "Yes princess." "Our astronomers and your friend Lyra have found a new star system right next to ours. It's shape is giant and it's going in a spiral." "Wow princess that must be amazing to our astronomers!" "Then I have a new assignment for you." "Then I'm listening!" "Are you able find more about this new galaxy and its planets within it?" "Yes I won't let you down princess!" "You should consider your friends into this along with Lyra im sure they'll like this." "Alright then see you later princess!" Twilight then left the throne room and went to get her friends. UNSC Office of Naval Intelligence: Earth, 15:00 hours "Everyone, we are here for is something brand new." Lord Hood said as he turned on a 3D image. "Some of the brainiacs from HQ have found a new star system that's close to Earth. It has a planet that's like Reach and Earth combined into one. It's atmosphere is breathable, water and oxygen are present on the surface, and it's able to have any life on the planet, though we don't know what the name of the planet is yet our teams and astronomers are working on it." "Do we know any species on the planet lord hood?", Captain Allen said. "No but your ship the Euclid's Anvil is assigned to go and scout the planet with these coordinates.", Hood said as he handed the captain a computer chip. "My crew will be ready sir. We also need him to be ready with us and then we're good to go." "Alright Captain, get your men and women ready. You're all going on a mission." "Yes sir." "Get Alpha 091 on the line." "Yes sir Lord Hood.", a private said as he turned on a flat screen. Euclid's Anvil Hanger Bay #2: 15:05 "This is Spartan 091, Bridge with A.I. Hannah reporting for duty sir!", the Spartan said as he gave Lord Hood a salute. Pauses "Oh yeah, my name's Bryce A. But people call me Bridge." Resumes "Son this is Lord Hood, the UNSC Euclid's Anvil is getting ready for a mission to a new planet near Earth. I want you with Captain Allen and your A.I. to be on this mission. Your time of departure is 5 hours so be prepared, Hood out." The Spartan in the hanger bay was menacing figure. He stood at a full 6.8 feet with black painted Spartan 4 armor. He had white stripes down his helmet, legs, and chest, also had his rank: senior chief petty officer. He had the symbols on his shoulder pads and arms. And he had a black visor. He was from the first Spartan program with Master Chief and they were like brothers. Still, he remembers the good times with him, killing the Covenant on the battlefield with heavy weapons and explosives. But his real brother Noble six died on Reach and he misses his brother, he got killed by the goddamn elites after that he was gone. The Master Chief now is somewhere classified but he's still a good friend of his. He still remembers the motto: Spartans don't die, they're just missing in action. "Well looks like we're going on another adventure Bridge.", the A.I. said and chuckled slightly. "Your right Hannah, who knows what might be on this new planet that we'll find out.", Bridge said. (You could say that Bridge and Hannah are like chief and Cortana but they're different characters. UNSC Euclid's Anvil, space: 22:00 hours. Hanger bay #4 "Well Bridge I'm glad you could make it. Hood gave me some of your new equipment modifications to your armor.", Captain Allen said. "Alright go ahead then.", Bridge replied. "Alright first things first your shields can now substain 50% more damage which make's you better on offensive and defensive. Second your new Spartan 4 Armor now has magnetics, say if there's low gravity inside a ship your armor now can stay to the ground and move freely. Third you can carry more weapons on your back. And last but not least you now have a built in jet-pack so there's no need to carry one on your back. Bridge then tested out the jet-pack and flew around a while. "Now that is fucking sick man!", Bridge said. "Well that's all there is son, if you need me or Hannah we'll be on the Bridge.", the captain said. "Yes sir." Euclid's Anvil: Orbiting unknown planet, The Bridge: 08:40 hours "Captain we're at our coordinates.", the A.I. said. "In my opinion that planet looks a lot like Earth.", Bridge said. "Same here Bridge.", the Captain replied. "The crew is scanning the planet. We just received word that the atmosphere is equal to Earth's with no pollution. It's air is breathable and we can't figure out the name of the planet. For now we'll call it sector DH-03. And for the planet's animal species we haven't figured out yet but our teams are working on it." "Captain asteroid incoming!", a crew member said. Boooooommmm!!!!! "The entire body of the ship rocked with alarms going off with red lights flashing all around inside the ship." "What the hell was that explosion?!", the captain yelled. "Let me look Captain.", Hannah said while overviewing the damage done by the asteroid. "What is it Hannah?", Bridge said. "That asteroid was very large. It crashed into the engine's critically damaging them. We got a fire in the engine room and the engines are loosing power fast!" "Captain, the engines are offline!", another crew member said. "Dammit guys we're screwed!", Bridge yelled. "We are starting to be pulled into the planet's atmosphere but slow though!", Hannah said. "Hell we have no choice. We're abandoning the ship. Bridge get as much people as you can off of this ship we are going to crash land. Load up the transports and get out of here, that means you to Hannah, your going with Bridge.", The captain said. "What about you sir?", Bridge ask. "I'm going down with the ship. I won't leave my beauty, she's important to me." "Alright then, Bridge yank me.", Hannah said. Bridge then pulled her out of the console and placed her in his helmet. "Now go Bridge! Go help the others! I'll be fine here.", The captain said. Bridge then left the bridge and then went to the the armory. Alert, crew we're abandoning ship! Prepare Pelicans for evac ASAP! Said an officer from the bridge. "Bridge what's going on?", A female officer said while Bridge ran through the hallway from the bridge. "We're abandoning the Euclid's Anvil. Alert the Pelican pilots!" "Aye sir!" "Shouldn't you get stocked up?", Hannah asked. "I was already going to it when you mentioned that Hannah.", Bridge complied. "Well what are you waiting for gear up!" Bridge finally made his way to the armory and saw a massive amount of guns in it. He chose specifically on what to bring. He chose dual magnums and attached them to his legs with one on each side. Next he grabbed a shotgun and placed it on his back with a sniper rifle, then he picked up an assault rifle, and last but not least he grabbed four fragmentation grenades and left the armory to the hanger. "Are you sure this isn't a little over-kill Bridge?", Hannah asked. "I'm sure of it Hannah.", the Spartan replied. Hanger Bay #1 Several Marines and ODST's began to load D79H-TC Pelican troop transports and G79H-TC/MA Pelican gunships and transports with medical supplies, ammunition, food, other supplies, and vehicles onto the Pelicans which included standard, gauss, rocket, and troop transport warthogs, Mongoose ATV's, Scorpion tanks, and Mantis robots. (What? They're drifting very slow and the crew is going to land on an unexplored planet. They obviously need supplies because no one know's what to expect down there on the surface. Don't you criticize me. If you didn't know there are two pelican types in halo 4. One is a bigger troop transport that that can hold about 20 people and the gunship can hold about 14 people but has more powerful weapons such as a Spartan laser and can carry mobile weapons in compartments on both sides. (If you played halo 4 where you pilot the pelican and you can get weapons front the pelican's side then you know what I'm talking about) The gunship can be a mobile armory while the other counterpart doesn't. You can tell the difference by the gunships green color and the troop transports gray-blackish color. For more go to the Halo wikia) Several Broadsword and Longsword aircraft were taking off as well with the Pelicans. Bridge and Hannah then boarded the last Pelican troop transport off the ship with a troop transport warthog for at least 2-7 people that it can carry with supplies. The Pelicans, Longswords, and Broadswords were airborne and headed towards the planet's surface. "Sir we're heading towards the surface.", the pilot said. "Alright good.", Bridge said. "We are going to make it right sir? I don't want to die.", an ODST by the name of Dutch said. "Relax soldier you'll be fine.", Bridge replied. "Are you sure that we'll make it into the atmosphere Bridge?", Hannah said. "We'll be fine I'm sure of it." "Well I hope so." "Sir we've made it past the atmosphere. We're here!", the pilot said. "Good tell the rest of the airborne units to follow us and find an LZ.", Bridge said. "Affirmative sir!" "I hope this goes smoothly Bridge.", Hannah said. "We'll be fine Hannah just trust me on this." "I hope you'll jinx it though." "When have I ever let each other down Hannah?" "Never since we met two years ago." "Well prepare yourself baby." "Oh stop it you make me blush!", Hannah said as she chuckled a bit while she was blushing for an A.I. Ponyville Golden Oaks Libary:09:00 hours "Ugh, Twilight how long until this ends?", Rainbowdash asked. "Hold your hooves RD, we'll be done soon.", Twilight said. "What do ya'll think what kind of species that lies in that galaxy girls?", Applejack asked. "If aliens are real then we might have a chance to meet them. They might have cute animals on the planet(s).", Fluttershy said. "Ooohh! Maybe they like cupcakes and parties!", Pinkie said. "If they meet us I should have a 'Welcome Aliens' party for them and the-!" "I think we get it now darling.", Rarity said. "Who knows what these new 'aliens' are or if they're real or not. Besides it'll be a while before we meet them if any exist.", Lyra said. "I agree with Lyra everypony. Who knows what if aliens are real or not. If they were real I would like to meet one.", Spike said. "I'm with ya dude!", Rainbowdash said. "Me too!", Pinkie said. "I want still want to throw a party for-." "Girls come up here!", Twilight shouted. "What is it darling?", Rarity asked as all of them headed towards the balcony. "What are those things out there?", Twilight said as the bird-like objects came closer. Part 2: Crash-LandingUNSC Spartan 091 Bridge's location: Pelican dropship. Enroute to LZ: 09:05 hours "We're fine so far sir.", The pilot said to Bridge. "Look escape pods!", Bridge said as escape pods were flying over them. "To all airborne units this is A.I. Hannah, we have escape pods with men to rescue in them." "Affirmative Hannah!", a pelican pilot said. "There are twelve escape pods so we'll have to split up into groups. Alpha group go to the North-West, we'll go for the middle as Bravo, and Charlie goes to the North-East.", Hannah said "Roger that, heading toward escape pods now.", a female pilot said. "Bring as much survivors as you can everyone.", Hannah said. Canterlot Castle: Throne Room "Sister meteors have fallen from the sky! They have landed throughout Ponyville and the Everfree forest!", Luna said in a very worried statement. "Check if anypony is hurt quick and get the Royal Giard as well! I'll send a letter to Twilight and her friends!", Celestia said. Escape pod #5: Ponyville: 09:10 hours. Sargent Smith "Is everybody alright?", the female Sergeant said while still strapped to her seat. Everyone in the pod responded with a "yes" nor just nodded. The pod was now stuck in the dirt. She looked around and observed her marine squad. They had only two casualties: The pilot's legs were broken and one of her marine's had his strap's ripped and sent him flying toward the wall knocking him out cold but she guessed that he'll be awake in a while. Other than the medic or the Sargent herself it was her newest squad member: Private William Hall. She strapped the belts off of her and began giving her marine's orders. "Get the hatch open and get our wounded out of here while I find a first aid men." "Yes Ma'am!", Corporal Wilkens from the group said. The Corporal kicked the door down and three marines took point with their weapons raised. They took the private and the pod pilot from the inside and the medic and Sargent Smith gave them medical support. "Sergeant look it's the UNSC Euclid's Anvil she's going to crash!", one of the privates said. He pointed out to the sky and they all saw the Euclid's Anvil heading towards their direction but it went over them while debris fell from the sky and landing near them but they were lucky enough that none of the debris hitted them. The ship then went towards a dark green forest and they then heard a giant crash sound from the forest but they couldn't see the ship anymore. Then then saw ODST pods falling from the sky. They all landed separately around the town but one flipped upside down when it hitted a building and landed right next to Smith's squad's pod and they saw an upside down ODST drop pod and helped the person inside of it and they got the pod open and saw a figure: He was ODST Rookie. He wore standard ODST armor and had a white stripe down his arms, legs, and helmet. He was a mute soldier but he was like a Spartan in combat. His weapons included a special silenced SMG with a small scope on it and a magnum pistol along with a few fragmentation grenades with him. He then climbed out of the pod that was upside down and was on his feet five seconds later and gave the marines a wave with his hand as his message of saying 'hi'. "This is UNSC A.I. Hannah does anyone down below hear me?" "This is Sergeant Smith we read you loud and clear over." "We've found your crash site with some other pods around this town. Hopefully the locals are friendly. The area that you're in is a very large town square it should hold most of our Pelicans. We're almost there hang tight over." "Roger that Hannah, we're waiting." Golden Oaks Library Twilight just got a scroll from Celestia and read it at a very quick pace. Dear Twilight Sparkle I am aware of the meteors that crashed and I need you and Luna to investigate them and see if anypony is okay. Hurry we can't let this situation out of hand. Sincerely, Princess Celestia "Come on girls, we need to help Princess Luna!", Twilight said as they ran to the door Luna had appeared in the doorway. "Oh hello Princess Lu-", Twilight said. "Now is not the time Twilight we need to move now! Follow me." "What is going on Princess Luna?", Spike asked. "Me and my sister were talking and then we got reports that meteors fell and now it's a catastrophe right now." Obove them, eight bird like objects flew above them and flew to the center of town making very loud sounds. "Let's see what's going on that way." Twilight said. After a short wait at the LZ six troop transports and two gunships landed and unloaded supplies, troops, and 3 transport Warthogs, 2 standard mounted machine gun Warthog, a scorpion tank, two mongooses and a heavily modified Mantis robot vehicle. Bridge was at the LZ and was giving orders to the marines to secure the area and help the other injured soldiers or ODST's around town. They then heard a crowd of horse like creatures watching them. They were all different colors and some had horns and wings on their body. "This could get interesting Bridge.", Hannah said in Bridge's helmet. "Let's hope they don't turn hostile towards us Hannah and we'll be fine.", Bridge replied. "I'm keeping my fingers crossed on that one Bridge." Part 3: Meet the crew, search and rescueSpartan Alpha 091 CODENAME: Bridge, Ponyville: 9:20. 10 minutes after Euclid's Anvil's crash landing The LZ had Pelican gunships, and troop transports from group Alpha. There were several crates of supplies that the Marine's and ODST's stored inside the Pelicans with vehicles that the Pelicans carried in the back. They were unknown what to do next. And secretly a group of 9 figures were watching them from a hill. "What kind of creatures are those Princess Luna?", Twilight asked. "I don't know Twilight. What do those words, 'Marines' and 'U.N.S.C.'mean?" "Oh! Maybe they're something secret.", Lyra replied. "Let's not shout and give away our position everypony, or else these creatures will know that we're here. For now let's keep watching them.", Luna said. "Sergeant Smith, give me a status report.", Bridge asked. "We've found a spot to rest sir and we have group Bravo searching for a place to set up camp while Charlie finds more survivors from any more escape pods. And also why do we have a ton of supplies with all of our Pelicans when we should evacuated off the ship ?", Smith replied. "Well after I left the armory the captain told me on the com-channels that we need all of this because this IS a planet that we've never been on and we were drifting very slowly in space before the Euclid's Anvil was heading towards this planet's atmosphere. And who knows what's on this planet, for what I know if we didn't have these supplies then we would have been walking blind Sargent." "I see your point there sir." "However, our landing and the 'Euclid's Anvil's' crash should've attracted attention from the locals." "What should we do now sir?" "For the hundreth time Sergeant Smith don't call me sir all the time!" "Sorry." "What we should do now is that we should lay low. Also if we meet any locals on this planet we play it cool and don't panic. I'll search party to rescue any survivors from the 'Euclid's Anvil'." "Who are you sending to the ship?" "The best that we've got. You four get over here!" "Yes sir!", an ODST replied. Four ODST's lined up in front of Bridge and Smith and they stood as still as a statue in front of them. "Sergeant I would like you to meet these soldiers that I know from ODST group Alpha nine. First one's Corporal 'Dutch'.", Bridge said. "Pleasure to meet you Sargent.", Dutch replied. Dutch is one of the 'cool guys' in the UNSC and he usually calls himself awesome after a fight on the battlefield. He is very honest to his squad. "This one's Lance Corpral 'Romeo'." "Hello ma'am.", Romeo said. Romeo is a black soldier who is usually lucky with the ladies and he's very good at killing his targets when he's far away with a sniper rifle. He's the party guy and he loves them. "Next here is Private First Class 'Mickey'." "Reporting for duty!", Mickey yelled as he gave both of them a salute. Mickey is a brave ODST who loves explosives and always listens to orders. And he's very loyal to his squad and others with him. "And last but not least Lance Corpral 'Rookie'." Rookie was silent and just did a wave at Sargent Smith. Rookie is an ODST who's not very green but he's a very brave soldier. He helped his friends in Mombassa during the Battle of Earth. He somehow managed to survive through the night in war-torn Mombassa while looking for his squad. He might be shy but once when you get to know him he'll talk eventually. "Is he going to say anything?", Smith asked Bridge. "Negative, he doesn't talk. Or maybe he does but I don't know its personal to him.", Bridge said. "What do you need us for sir?", Dutch asked to Bridge. "I'm sending you on a mission to find any survivors at the 'Euclid's Anvil's' crash site and bring them here.", Bridge replied in a solid tone. "Wait! How do we know if anyone is still alive in that hunk of metal?", Romeo said. "Relax dude, we don't do anything stupid and we'll be fine.", Mickey assured. "Before I send you four off I have some things for you all of you.", Bridge added. "Oh so we get gifts?", Mickey asked with a somewhat surprised tone. "Well you could say that Mickey, I was informed by ONI to give you four these weapons but until we were hit by the asteroid we didn't have time. Anyways I have them right now just wait for a minute." Bridge then brought a supply crate and took the top off which revealed several weapons inside the crate and handed one weapon to Dutch. "Hey it's nice to have a Spartan laser again, I love these things!", Dutch said as he examined it. "This one's been modified Dutch", Bridge said. Dutch perked up to Bridge's statement. "This Spartan laser has an energy core which has unlimited firing use. This one costs a a lot money Dutch but it pack's a punch. If you don't overheat it the core will still be able to use. "Oh I'm going to love this!", Dutch said. "As for Romeo I have a specialized sniper for you. This sniper can use a suppressor which doesn't reduce your damage or range. It also can use a flash suppressor it can get rid of your bullet's track when you fire but you'll give away the sound of the rifle's shots." "Man this thing's a beast!", Romeo assured. "Mickey you get a rocket launcher that has highly explosive and armor penetration rockets. They can even tear through about 3 inches of steel armor if you use one of these bad boys." "Awesome! Whoever threatens me prepare to die!", Mickey said. "And as for Rookie your given two modified smg's with suppressors and a scope on them. Their suppressor makes less noise and they do more damage, the same goes with your pistol. I have one sky for all of you guys except for Rookie." "Seems reasonable sir.", Dutch said. I have a two Pelicans on standby for your mission. Grab any survivors and bring them to the Pelicans. Maybe if the Captain is still alive bring him back in one piece. You got me soldiers?" "Yes sir we gotcha!", Mickey replied. "Alright move out now!" All the ODST's gave a "Yes sir!" and headed to the two troop transports and headed off to the Euclid's Anvil. "Bridge this is Bravo team. We've found a spot to set up camp. It has a mountain blocking us, a river, and we got supplies being unloaded right now.", Bravo team leader said. "Alright good work, give us your co-ordinates and we'll be there shortly.", Bridge replied. "We're sending them to you now sir." "Got it, we're moving out right now. Any new updates from Group Charlie?" "They found more survivors and are still landing back here. It's been going on for a long time." "Thanks Lieutenant, Bridge out. Sargent Smith tell the troops to load the vehicles up and be ready for dust-off." "Yes sir!", Smith said. "And do it quick, Hannah I have a feeling that we're being watched." "I don't see anything Bridge. You probably need some rest.", His A.I. said. "Also I've analyzed the asteroid that had hit the Euclid's Anvil, it was no ordinary asteroid. A regular asteroid that would hit us would do almost no damage since we had our shields up. I wonder if someone sent it after us" "Are you sure that sounds like crap to me.", Bridge replied. "How in the fuck can anyone send an asteroid on a direct course for us? That makes no sense at all!" "Maybe, I'm still reviewing it just in case." The Pelicans from Alpha Team loaded up and headed towards Bravo Team's location. "Wait they're leaving?", Luna asked. "Maybe they're going somewhere where we don't know.", Twilight said. "Should we follow them because I want to see why they're here for.", Rainbowdash said. "We shouldn't, we can't keep up with them and we could be spotted by them.", Luna said. "Let's go back to Canterlot and discuss this to my sister, she'll know what to do." "Alright Princess, we'll be with you always.", Twilight said. "Thanks Twilight and every pony, we must go to Canterlot now. I'll teleport us there.", Luna said. Luna then casted a spell and then all of the eight mares and the baby dragon appeared in the royal castle in Canterlot. Group Alpha Nine: 9:30, Euclid's Anvil's crash site. Alpha nine have reached the Euclid's Anvil crash site and they saw the ship. It had plowed through the terrain and just stopped before hitting a side of a mountain. They saw the ship in a wreck with hunks and sheets of metal on the ground and other pieces of debris with it. Their Pelican landed and they then climbed out and headed towards the crash site. "Alpha Nine this is Hannah.", The A.I. said. "I checked the crash site and it should be safe if you don't screw things up for example, blowing up the engine generators. You should find an entrance into the ship from where you are but small pieces debris are blocking it. You should be able to get through if you use something useful. Good luck, Hannah out." "Roger that ma'am.", Dutch said. "How could anybody survive this mess?", Romeo asked. "Let's hope some people managed to survive this.", Mickey replied. "I found an entrance here everyone!", Dutch yelled. They arrived at an airlock but it was blocked by debris. It was blocked by plates of metal and other materials from the ship. "How the hell are we going to get through this?", Romeo said. "Maybe if we move that piece is steel we shou-.", Dutch replied but to be cut off by Mickey. "FIRE IN THE HOLE!!!!!", Mickey screamed. He fired a rocket and it blew up all of the debris in the passage way. "JESUS FUCKING CHIRST MICKEY!!!", Dutch yelled. "Do you want this thing to come down on all of us?!" "Well hey it was worth it.", Mickey replied. "At least we got through so let's get going!" "Never do that AGAIN. Let's go inside now.", Dutch added. Alpha nine went into the ship and continued their mission to rescue any survivors. Secret base: Location; Unknown "Well the asteroid worked alright." "Yes it worked your highness. What should we do now?" "Prepare our numbers because the princess's will be crushed soon. And then I will rule Equestria forever!" Part 4: Camp and search and rescue part 2ODST Group Alpha Nine: 9:50; Euclid's Anvil's crash site The ODST's of Alpha nine just entered the the Euclid's Anvil. They had their silenced smg's with a scope which ODST's usually carry. They were ready in case of hostile's. There were damaged walls, broken doors, electric sparks coming out from control panels, and broken debris everywhere inside the ship. "This place is a pigsty .", Dutch said. "I don't like this, nobody would have survived this wreck." "Have some faith man.", Mickey replied. "At LEAST one crew member could have survived this. Since the shields were barely standing when we dropped in our pods. I'm surprised Rookie didn't pass out like from the Battle of Earth in New Mombassa." Rookie then tapped Mickey on his left shoulder and pointed to Mickey's right. "What is it Rookie?", Mickey said. "Ah it's nothing Roo-" Before Mickey could finish his sentence he turned to Rookie and he saw Rookie flipping him off in just dead silence with a devilish glare. "I guess Rookie didn't like your comment a minute ago.", Romeo said. "Kiss my ass Romeo! I didn't mean to offend him.", Mickey replied. "Will you two just shut the hell up now? I see something up ahead, be ready.", Dutch whispered. Canterlot Castle: Throne Room; 15 minutes before Alpha Nine's search The group of ponies and the baby dragon were in Celestia's throne room and Luna had very urgent news to her sister. Luna believed that the problem with aliens in Equestria was going to get worse. "Good morning sister.", Luna said to her sister. "You to sister.", Celestia said back. "Do you have any news about the meteors that crashed?" "Well yes but there's something else.", Luna replied in a very nervous tone. "Me and the others were scouting Ponyville we didn't just see meteors, we saw aliens of a new species. They came out of these giant bird-like things that can fly and they carried these black boxes and sticks with them." "Did you say aliens sister?", Celestia asked. "Yes sis. I saw what they looked like, they walk on two legs and they looked different upon each other. Some where wearing some kind of armor that was a grayish color. And the one that I'm most curious of is that there was one that was wearing a metal like outfit that was black and white, he had some symbol on his arm and along with that I saw a blue figure come out of his hoof like if it was magic or something like that. I've never seen anything like it. Then the next thing they had two of those bird-like things that they had to the meteor crash site and the others took off and I think the figure in the metal outfit saw us on the hill that we were spying on them. But luckily we weren't caught by them." "If there are aliens here then this means that they might be friendly.", Celesta said. "IF they are that is. For now I'll be more con earn about the aliens and Ponyville's damage. Check on the meteor's crash site and see if any pony got hurt or not. I've made the crash site off-limits but only you ponies can be at the meteor." "Understood sister, we'll leave immediately." "Alright Luna, just try not to get hurt." "I hear you sis." Luna then faster a teleportation spell and they disappeared into thin air. The next thing they knew was that they were at the meteor's crash site. Princess Luna: Meteor's crash site; 9:40 hours, 10 minutes before Alpha Nine's search Princess Luna and the others were teleported to the meteor and they were facing right in front of it. They were shocked at the size of it and wondered if it is a meteor or not since it was made of metal. They also saw a title on it labeled: U.N.S.C. Euclid's Anvil. "Princess, what does that title mean?", Twilight said. "And I think this is no meteor, it's probably something else." "Should we look inside princess cause I ain't sure if we should we leave this thing here.", Applejack said. "Alright let's go inside this object and then let's return to the castle." The group went inside the ship and went on a tour. They saw broken plates of metal and lots of more damage to the ship. "I agree with you earlier Twilight.", Luna said. "This is definetly NOT a meteor." "What's with all of this fancy stuff all around?", Rainbowdash added. "I can't believe this!", Spike replied. "Is this like from the future or something? Because this looks like from one of those things in those sci-fi pony comic books that I read." "What's with the marking on the wall like: Engine Room or something like that?" Rarity said. "This place lacks color. It looks rather dull." "Hey guys look ahead at that!", Pinkie explained. "What's that?" Up ahead of them layed a marine helmet. It was left on the ground with a giant dent on it's top with a giant scratch on the right side of it and a body layed on its back unmoving. "What is that can I look?!", Lyra pointed out. "Let me look first.", Princess Luna replied back." They looked at the body and the helmet and started a chat but before they could get a good look Fluttershy interrupted the whole group. "Somepony's coming hide!", Fluttershy whispered. Then Princess Luna casted an invisibility spell and hid behind some crates. They saw four figures and they were chatting to each other. "Ah that's nothing Dutch. You might be seeing thing's.", Romeo said. "Yeah I've haven't been getting that much sleep lately.", Dutch replied. "Alpha Nine this is Bridge we just lost contact with ODST Group Delta Five. They went on a recon mission and they STILL haven't radioed back. Over." "Copy that Bridge, this is Dutch. Either their communications are messed up when we dropped or their outside of your communication's range. Over." "Give me a status report Dutch." "The Euclid's Anvil is in a shitty condition. The engines are dead but the reactor is still intact and we haven't seen any sirvivors yet. Deck 18 lost power and we're on our way to the bridge. Over." "Copy that Alpha Nine keep searching the ship. If you find the Captain Allen bring him back to a Pelican ASAP. Copy?" "Affirmative sir. We are now se-. What do we have here?" "You found something Dutch?" "Yeah, I found a marine here from the impact. I have his dog tags his name is: Corpral Aiden Jackson. His status is KIA." "Bummer. Wait, can you retrieve the video chip from his helmet?" "Yes I have it right now. Should I play the video sir?" "Affirmative send me the video." "Yes sir, playing it now." Dutch then played a projector from his helmet and the whole group and Bridge saw the video. And secretly Luna and the others saw it to. Corporal J. Jackson: UNSC Euclid's Anvil; 2 minutes before crash landing "Captain we should leave now.", Jackson said. "Negative Corporal, you should leave. In my book the captain goes down with his ship.", Captain Allen replied. "But sir-" "That's an order son. Now get going" "Aye sir!" Later on deck 19 "Corporal Jackson are you there?" "Yes Sargent Smith I'm here I'm heading towards an escape pod. The ship is almost crashing we sho-." Then there was a giant shaking in the ship and then a giant numb occurred which made Jackson hitting the ceiling of the hallway and then hitting the right side of his head. The next thing he knew was his vision turned pitch black. "Corporal.... Corporal are you there!?", Sargent Smith said. But there was no answer. Euclid's Anvil: Corporal Jackson's helmet video feed; 9:55 "What is that?", Pinkie pie said. "Hey isn't that Pinkie pie?", Twilight whispered. The video went on and some more talking occurred until the yellow creature whispered: "Somepony's coming hide!" Then Alpha Nine saw the group turn invisible and saw themselves in the video on the deck with no power. "What do we have here?", A black figure with orange said as he came up to the helmet's camera. "Sir did you see that?", Dutch said. "Yeah what was that?", Bridge said. "We're those horses or something? Because if they are the-. Oh god....." "What is it sir?" "They might steal the Captain get to the bridge now!", Bridge yelled. "Hurry your close to it!" "Affirmative we're moving!", Dutch said. The four ODST's then ran through the broken ship and headed to the bridge. "We should follow them.", Luna whispered. "We should keep watching them but stay quiet!" They followed the ODST's throughout the ship and they were amused at how they ran and how they mantled over debris while not getting injured. They finally caught up with them and they stopped at a doorway labeled: Bridge. The group hid behind a pile of boxes and saw the four figures go into the bridge of the ship. "Sir, we've made it to the bridge. We've got the Captain he's alive but injured along with two other officers and we also retrieved all remaining contacts, files, and data about the UNSC and Earth. Over", Dutch said. "Copy that. I'm sending a Pelican for an evac, ETA: five minutes.", Bridge said. "Alright sir. Copy that." The group of ODST's helped the captain and the two officers and waited for their evac. But Eookie thought he saw something behind a pile of boxes. The group of ponies were scared but they were lucky with their invisibility spell. Rookie didn't see anything and returned to his post. Alpha Nine's pelican arrived outside of the ship and they had three survivors: Captain Allen and two officers from the Bridge. "You guys alright?", The pilot said. "Yeah, take us to camp we're done. Mission accomplished everyone!", Dutch said. The Pelican took off and left the ship and the ponies in the dust. "That was an interesting encounter.", Luna said. "We must report to my sister now." Luna then casted a teleportation spell and they appeared in the throne room. Alpha Nine: Base camp; 10:05 AM Alpha Nine's Pelican landed at the main camp which had Bridge and the rest of the ship's survivors. The ramp in the back of the pelican dropped and the ODST's saw the Spartan in black armor waiting for them outside. "Glad you guys made it.", Bridge said. "Is the captain here?" "Yes sir", Mickey replied whe he brought the captain to a medic. Captain Allen then woke up and he saw five figures in front of him. "Bridge is that you?", The Captain asked. "Yes sir.", Bridge replied. "We have lost contact with ODST Group Delta Five and we have most of the survivors. Alpha Nine saved your ass along with two more officers onboard the ship." Then Bridge and Captain Allen started a long conversation. "Well that's good to hear, and where are we?", Captain Allen asked again. "We've established a small camp here which we're going to make as a base soon.", Bridge said. "Sargent Smith is rallying troops to unload vehicles and supplies from the Pelicans." "Are there any locals on this planet?" "Maybe as I can tell but we've might seen some on the ship in a video feed." "Interesting.", Hannah said. "I've calculated the weather on this planet and it's not natural. It's like if someone can control it or something." "That's weird Hannah.", Bridge said. "For now let's stay here and figure a way to react with locals if we come across them." "I agree Bridge.", Captain Allen replied. "You got any idea's Bridge?" "Affirmative.", Bridge said. "It's- "Bridge, Captain this is Delta Five...", A voice came from the radio said. "This is Bridge go ahead." "WE GOT CONTACTS! LOTS OF THEM, BUT THEY'RE NOT COVENANT, FLOOD, FORERUNNER, OR PROMETHEAN'S. WHAT THE-. FALL BACK! AAAAAGGGH!!!" "Delta Five! Delta Five come in over!?", Bridge asked. Part 5: Hostiles inbound!Base camp: Spartan 091, Bridge; 10:15 hours "Delta Five! Delta Five come in over?!", Bridge asked on the radio. "Sir we have the video footage!", Sergeant Smith said. Smith then showed the video to Bridge from a small video pad. The video showed these black bug-like creatures who were flying. But what made Bridge wonder was that these creatures were weak and he saw some bigger one with them who was some horse creature to his eyes. "Sergeant ready the troops, we're going to save those boys of our's.", Bridge commanded. "Yes sir.", Smith replied. "Alright everyone move it!" "Bridge it's wise to leave Hannah here at camp.", Captain Allen said. "If there's an enemy that we don't know protocol says we can't let a UNSC A.I. fall into unknown hands." "Affirmative sir.", Bridge replied. Bridge then handed his A.I. into a small terminal alongside the captain with some radios and computers. "I'll still be able to contact you from here Bridge.", Hannah said. "Don't worry I'll be alright here." "Bridge, you may bring whatever ordinance or weapons you need.", Captain Allen said. "Also bring Alpha Nine." "Affirmative sir.", Bridge replied back. He then gave the captain a salute and headed towards the weapons stache. He picked two magnums, a DMR, a SAW, and a sniper rifle. Bridge and Smith quickly gathered their forces and then headed out. Later in some forest: 10:40 Hours Bridge and Smith were in a strike force hat they had made of 8 warthogs and 4 mongooses and they were heading towards Delta Five's position. Bridge was driving the first warthog and something was giving him a chill down his spine. But he ignored it. According to UNSC and ONI records, and Hannah he's not afraid of anything, he IS fear. Mostly because he is known as 'The Shadow of Death'. Even the Elites of the Covenant fear him. "Bridge your near Delta Five, keep driving forward.", Hannah said on the radio. "Copy that Hannah. How much longer?", Bridge asked. "There they're in front of you!", Hannah replied. Delta Five was struggling to hold their ground. There were these black creatures that were attacking them but Delta Five had only some rocks for cover against their attacks. They had two wounded men and the other four ODST's were providing cover fire for their injured teammates. But they were lucky when a bunch of vehicles came through the tree line. They stopped and they opened fire on the enemy in front of them with everything that they had. Bridge immediately stepped out of the warthog that he drove and immediately took cover where the ODST Lieutenant Lee was. "Bridge, we're glad that your here!", Lee said as a black bolt almost hit his visor. "We got your distress call. We're here to save you guys.", Bridge said as he unleashed a spray of bullets from his SAW. "We got Private Mason and Private First Class Travis both injured and we killed countless amounts of these creatures. They attacked us first and we then gave them a fierce counter-attack." "Copy that Lieutenant. Everyone give them a warm welcome!" "LET'S KILL THEM ALL YE-HAW!", Mickey screamed. Mickey, Smith, and Rookie were in a warthog doing a drive-by at the enemies. As they approached Smith pulled the trigger to the turret and she let out a barrage of bullets which made dozens of enemies fall to their deaths. After that Rookie drove over a rock which made their warthog drive on two wheels. After they got their balance back Mickey stepped out of the vehicle. "Are you going to get back in or not?", Smith asked. "Not with Rookie driving!", Mickey replied. The black creatures kept on coming and more marines were falling from their attack's. Bridge decided that he called in some 'friends'. "Hannah this is Bridge. We need reinforcements now!" "Roger that Bridge. We're sending reinforcements from Pelican dropships. ETA: Five minutes, hang tight over.", Hannah said. While the crew of ODST's, marines, and the one Spartan were waiting for their reinforcements they somehow managed to fend off hundreds of these creatures. It seemed to an infinite amount of these creatures. Bridge then pulled the trigger on his sniper rifle and the bullet went through about three or four of the creatures along with some creature on four legs that was black like them. He realized that it was his last round for his sniper so he then went to his DMR and made tons of headshots. These creatures were easy pray but they didn't stop. "Bridge this is Pelican Bravo 649, we are your reinforcements but we need you to clear an LZ." "Copy that 'Eagle'. We're making an LZ now. All troops with rocket launchers fire in the middle of the incoming enemy group!", Bridge commanded. After he gave the order several troops and Mickey lined up behind the rocks with their rocket launchers that they aimed at the creatures. The creatures didn't know what was coming their way. "FIRE!", Bridge yelled. Countless amounts of rockets flew from their position and handful of explosions happened which killed about hundreds of enemies. Body parts flew everywhere, broken limbs, legs, arms, and heads layer on the battlefield from the explosions. And blue blood spilled everywhere. "That's what I like to see!", Mickey screamed. " 'Eagle' the LZ is cleared! Unload your troops and hang back for a while.", Bridge said. "Affirmative sir!", Eagle replied. Six Pelicans unloaded their troops and also unloaded some heavy firepower. They had two scorpion tanks, two guass warthogs, one rocket warthog, and a mantis. They all opened fire and they blew all of the creatures to bits. The creature's attacks did nothing to the vehicles and instead of hitting them their attacks bounced off of the vehicles like it was nothing. "Keep it up everyone they're weak!", Bridge yelled. "Bridge this is Pegasus, Hannah told us that we're here to deliver some 'presents' for these guys. You guys might want to stay where you are right now. It's about to get messy." "Copy that Pegasus!", Bridge replied. A few seconds later Bridge saw some Broadsword and Longsword aircraft releasing their payloads. He saw bullets, bombs, and missiles go flying towards the creatures and it responded in more body parts on the ground and also made some trees catch on fire. "Direct hit Pegasus!", Bridge said to the pilot. "Copy that. Heading back to base over.", Pegasus said "Sir they're retreating!", Dutch said. "Nice job everyone. I don't think they'll mess with us again!", Bridge said. The marines and ODST's all led out a victory cheer after Bridge's statement. Even Rookie was doing it but he didn't say anything. They were all proud of themselves once again. Spartan Alpha 91: Bridge; 10 minutes after the ambush at Delta Five's position. "Well sir we've fucked them up real bad!", Smith said. "I like to hear that Sergeant! How many of those things did we kill?", Bridge asked. "It's-" Before Sergeant Smith could begin her sentence they heard Dutch say something. "Hey you two have a visitor!", Dutch said. "Who is it?", Bridge asked. "See for yourself sir. She's over there.", Dutch replied. Bridge then headed towards their visitor with Sergeant Smith and everyone from Aplha Nine. They saw a white horse-like creature with guards. "Hello I'm Princess Celesita of Equestria and who are all of you?", She said in a calm and smoothe tone. Part 6: Back at homeEarth: Orbital Defense Platform Cairo Station: 4 hours and 50 minutes since contact with Princess Celestia Fleet Admiral Lord Terrance Hood was looking out at humanity's prized planet, Earth. The planet that mankind first named home since the Stone Age and then reached for the stars in the 1900's during the Cold-War which involved the United States of America vs. the Soviet Union. If it wasn't for the Americans and their space program NASA, then mankind wouldn't be far out in space. He was starting to wonder if he should have went with Captain Allen to see this planet, but no. He has priorities at Earth and he has the major responsibility of commanding the entire UNSC Navy from Earth to other far away planets. He was the best Fleet Admiral that the UNSC has right now. He then went on to the bridge and saw UNSC Navy personal doing their duties and other various activities. A fireteam of the marines aboard the station were playing slapjack with ODST squadron Omega 7. And some of the personal and soldiers were at the snack bar onboard the bridge and he saw ODST Sergeant Dobbin getting his daily coffee. "Ugh!", the Sergeant groaned as he pulled the top of the coffee maker. "Guess I'm the only person on this defense platform who KNOWS to change a coffee filter. Thanks guys!" "Hey Sergeant!", Lord Hood said in a positive tone. "How's your new squad going out for you? I heard that the last squad that you were in was a pain in the ass." "What sir? Oh yeah THAT squadron. They were a bunch of dicks anyways except for that one girl Veronica who is in my squad now." "I hear you sarge. I had troubles like that before when I was your age." "How's the Euclid's Anvil's mission? Have they reported back sir?" "Thanks for reminding me about that. I forgot to check in with them. I'll see you later sarge, you can go back to your thing right now." "Affirmative sir." Lord Hood then went to the personal at the computers who were working as hard as a college student taking their final exam before summer vacation. "How's the Euclid's Anvil's mission going everyone?", Lord Hood asked the crew aboard the bridge. "We haven't heard back from them in like five hours sir!", said one of the officers. "What do you mean?! They should've reported back by now!" "That's not all sir.", a female voice said from one of the Navy personal at the computers. "We haven't heard from the Captain or the crew at all!" "Thank you Officer Miller.", Lord Hood said. "They are nowhere even near the planet on our moniters Lord Hood.", a male voice said from the Bridge. "Has there been a mutiny on that ship or have they all gone rouge?" "It's not likely son. No crew in the UNSC Navy would throw a mutiny on that ship for just a exploration mission. And it is very unlikely for everyone to go rouge against the UNSC they're all good men and women that I know. Their comms must be messed up since they're out in neutral space. However I'm not making chances. Keep an eye on that and see if you can get a signal to them. It could be a Covenant Remnant trap or worse. Let's keep our jets cool and figure this out in the meantime." Earth: Office of Naval Intelligence HQ: 5 hours since contact with Princess Celestia "You know you never tell me much about him. How he acts, what he knows, or anything else. You really ARE someone of secrets. Me and the rest of ONI know your secrets and actions before and after the human-Covenant war. I am NOT an ONI agent instead I am slightly a friend of them and a historian. I want to know more about him because I'm curious about this Spartan. Besides every Spartan is one-of-a-kind in the UNSC. Can you please tell me more about him Dr. Halsey?", the man asked. "I already told you about him. John is the best Spartan that me and everyone else knows.", Dr. Halsey said. "Some people say that he is almost a god against the Covenant. He's the reason WHY humanity isn't wiped out from this war with the Covenant. My work saved the human race! If it wasn't me or Mendez we wouldn't be here right now alive." "I ALREADY know about Sierra 117 Dr. Halsey, I'm asking about someone else." "Then who is it then?" "Have you heard of Captain Allen of the Autumn-Class Cruiser the UNSC Euclid's Anvil?" "Yes, why?" "Did you know we found a new star system, Captain Allen and the crew of his ship went on an exploration mission." "No I haven't." "There's someone special on that ship that you know." "That ship has an elite crew I'm sure they'll survive." "No. We haven't heard from them in five hours." "I'm sure that their comms are messed up since they're in neutral space. Captain Allen is known for his naval actions and is a communications expert." "UNSC Spartan Alpha 91 was on that ship with UNSC A.I. Hannah and Captain Allen." "Wait?! He's still alive?!" "Yes doctor." "How come no one has told me of this?" "We haven't heard from the ship or seen the ship on our scanners. We might think that they're KIA. But their profiles say that they're MIA." "Well what do we do and why am I involved in this?" "ONI has a generous offer for your help doctor. If you help ONI with this they'll get rid of some of your 'horrible' war crimes from the public view." "Sounds fair enough, I'll help." "Alright. We also have an agent that can help us." "Who is it?" "Here he is. Doctor Halsey meet ONI Agent Locke." "A pleasure to meet you doctor.", said Spartan Locke. Orbital Defense Station Cario: 6 Hours since contact with Princess Celestia "Have any of you got new reports of the Euclid's Anvil Officer Miller?", Lord Hood asked on the bridge. "Negative sir.", Miller said. "Nothing, it's just dead space out there." "Do we know if there has been any Covenant activity there Miller?" "No, but we got a message." "Lord Hood.", Locke said behind Lord Hood. "Spartan Locke it's a pleasure for you to be here.", Hood said to the Spartan. "What's an agent from ONI like you being here on this station?" "The UNSC High Command and the office have ordered me to help you with this problem that you're having." "Affirmative. Miller can you play the message?" "Affirmative. It's from THE Arbiter!", Miller said. "The Arbiter? What does he want?", Hood replied. A big screen came on and it showed the Arbiter in his golden armor. "Hello humans.", said the Arbiter in a peaceful tone. "I heard about your problem with one of your ships. I believe it's called the Euclid's Anvil if I'm correct? If so then I have some news for you. Since I'm busy fighting against the Covenant Remnant I got some valuable information with me. You see the planet that you sent your ship to explore is uninhabited and there are some rumors of it having six forerunner artifacts on the planet. They are in some form of necklaces from what I can tell from the Covenant battle net. If you need my help I'll be gladly to assist you. Arbiter out." "I guess that he is willing to help us.", Lord Uood said. "Continue to find anything from the ship Miller. Me and Locke will speak with the Arbiter." Part 7: Back to the present & negotiations Part 7: Back to the present & negotiations Spartan Alpha 91, present time. 11:10 hours "Well I should say who are YOU?", Bridge said to the White House horse. "I am Princess Celestia, the ruler of Equestria.", The white horse said. "But my question is who are all of you?" She realized the Spartan was about two inches taller than her and she starred into his dark visor. "Well that's my question to. You are a horse if I'm correct?" "Actually our race are ponies. What is your race?" "We're all humans. We started as ancient civilizations and now we've expanded beyond planets and stars." "Wow I'm amazed! So your saying your not from Equis?" "Equis?" "It's the name of our planet. What is yours?" "That's classified." "Classified?" "Classified means it's important information that I can't tell you under certain protocols. Until we can trust you me and Captain Allen will make up our minds. But first, are you related to the Covenant or have you heard of them?" "Uh, no I haven't heard of this 'Covenant'. Who are they?" "They're a race of different alien species but grouped under a religious banner. They will not stop until their goals are complete. They won't stop at anything ma'am, they would destroy anything in their path towards their objectives. You shouldn't trust them at all." "That's very frightening. Have you met them?" "Yes, but then they started a civil war to wipe out humanity and her colonies under the prophets of the Covenant. Billions of lives have been lost to defend our species. We though that we would lose the war, but we had the Spartans like me. We WERE humanity's saviors and super soldiers throughout the entire war." "Spartans? Can you tell me more about them?" "That's classified but all I can tell you is that we were the best soldiers that humanity had. Always remember: 'Spartans don't die, they're just missing in action.' " "That sounds very amazing towards all of the Spartans." "Not all of us made it." "Excuse me?" "Most of the Spartans either sacrificed themselves or died to defend humanity. And my siblings were Spartans along side me. But they didn't make it from Reach." "Reach?" "A planet that we lost that was very important. Reach was destroyed. The immense of the entire planet, there's nothing left of it." "I feel sorry for the lives who were lost." "Me too, especially my sister and my brother." "Can you tell me more?" Bridge then had a horrible flashback and he heard voices. "We might not defend Reach." "Then we'll die trying Makena!" "Watch out sir!" "MAKENA!" "NO!", The Spartan yelled at Celestia. "Why, is there something wrong?", Princess Celestia asked. "I don't want to talk about it and that's personal.", Bridge said in an angry tone. "Why can't you tell anything classified?" "They taught us how to be silent, then they taught us how to be Spartans." "Who now?" "That's classified." "I hope that we can arrange peace negotiations." "I hope so to Princess Celestia." "I guess we're making history now with ponies and humans." "Yep, that seems so." "How did you end up here on this planet?" "We have our ship over there which we crashed, but we made it out of there just in time before it went down. Her name is the Euclid's Anvil." "I see. Do you have a leader?" "Well we have Captain Allen of the Euclid's Anvil and me as the main leaders for the ship's crew." "Can we see him?" "I'll have to ask him. Sergeant Smith, can you send a message to the captain saying that we have a leader who would like to talk to him?" "Understood sir!", Sergeant Smith said as she gave a salute and talked to the communications officer. "Can my sister come to along with some other ponies?", Celestia asked. "Sure, only if they don't touch anything of ours we should be fine.", Bridge replied back. "My sister is the co-ruler of this nation and she would like to see you." "Alright I'm down with that." "I'm here with the girls sister", Luna said as she approached. "Here is my sister Princess Luna. Luna say hi to him.", Celestia said. "It's you!", Luna yelled. "Uh sorry, have we met before?", Bridge asked. "I've seen you in my dreams and I have seen you in Ponyville with that blue thing of yours.", Luna said. "Blue thing?", The Spartan asked. "Oh yeah! Hannah come say hello." As the Spartan took his A.I. out of the back of his helmet she appeared as her blue avatar in front of the ponies. (In case of you didn't know: Hannah has long hair and she has a different face and body than Cortana in case if you guys were wondering on how she looks like.) "Hello Princesses, I'm Hannah.", The A.I. said as she put her hair back behind her head like the way that it was. All of the ponies were in shock while starting at the A.I. But Celestia and Twilight had curious and puzzled looks. "So she is something that you can put in your head?", Twilight asked. "Well no not exactly in my head, but in my helmet. She's an artificial intelligence of the UNSC and we're all partners together.", Bridge said. "So does she can be with you at anytime?", The white unicorn asked. "Yes. That's not what all my armor can do." "So whatever. It's not like you can survive falls from space or something like that.", The rainbow colored pony said. "Actually I can.", The Spartan said. "Oh really?!", Rainbowdash said. "I'm a Spartan ma'am, I'm one of the best soldiers that humanity has on the front lines. And in case if you didn't know we fought a war that lasted about 30 years. It was a very painful experience for me personally." "What a bunch of junk anyways! That seems lame." Those words infuriated the Spartan with anger and hatred. "What did you just say?! We have lost over 20 billion lives and we lost multiple planets that we've colonized!" "So what?! Show me that you have proof!" "Alright then. Hannah?", Bridge asked. "Affirmative. Playing the clip now.", The A.I. replied back as a video clip played from Bridge's helmet and then the video played. Bridge was on the screen when it came on and he was in a Pelican dropship while he was being debriefed for his mission by Captain Laskey. "Spartan Alpha 91, over the past week our ships have been fighting Covenant ships trying to attack our colonies. The shipmaster is on the surface and his ship is left unattended but he is commanding his ships from the surface. Your objective is to kill him ASAP and kill any other Covenant soldiers, then a Pelican dropship will meet with you for extraction.", The captain said. "Understood Captain Laskey.", Bridge said. "Good luck Spartan Bridge, Infinity out!", Laskey finished. "Are you sure your going to do this?", Hannah asked inside Bridge's helmet while he was grabbing his gear. "Affirmative Hannah. I'm going in.", Bridge replied. As the door opened he and had an Assault Rifle, DMR, Shotgun, and two Magnums with him as he jumped out of the Pelican from the atmosphere. He glided through the air with his built in thrusters in his armor which helped him from dying. Below him UNSC Autumn class cruisers and UNSC Broadsword and Longsword aircraft were attacking Covenant Remnant ships. He was near the ground and he used his thrusters to slow him down from surface of the planets soil. He then engaged Covenant troops and vehicles as he pulled out his Assault Rifle while doing a barrel roll towards his enemies. He shot multiple Grunts, Jackals, and Elites and used his built in jet pack to slow his descent. He shot a grunt inside the incoming Phantom and he climbed a Jackal's shield as he threw a frat grenade in the cockpit and he jumped out as the explosion happened behind him. Next he switched his weapons from his Assault Rifle to his Shotgun and shot multiple Elites in the face and he engaged his target. He faced the Shipmaster as the Elite tried to hit him with his energy sword but the Spartan was to fast for him and Bridge went behind him, knocked him down, and stabbed his knife through the Elite's head. After that UNSC Longswords flew over him and they targeted the Covenant super carrier with their payloads and Autumn Class cruisers firing their MAC cannons at the Covenant ship. Then the video ended with a Pelican picking up Bridge. "Well what do you think about Spartans now?", Bridge asked all the ponies. "Was that actually you?!", Twilight asked the Spartan "Yes that was me.", Bridge replied. "That was awesome!", Rainbowdash yelled in exitement. "Can you tell us who you are exactly? I didn't get your name.", Celestia asked. "It's Spartan Alpha 91, but you can call me Bridge. COMMANDER Bridge.", The Spartan replied. Part 8: New AlliesUNSC Base Camp; 11:30 hours "Lieutenant Lee this is 'Eagle', we have commander Bridge, Alpha Nine, Fireteam Aqua, and the ruler of this land over." "Copy that 'Eagle' and sorry for the cramped space here, the boys are real busy here.", The OSDT said. He then put his red and black ODST helmet on which had a flashlight equipped and grabbed his dual SMG's and his battle rifle from the crate that he was next to and came to the Corporal in his squad.. "Corporal Han, tell Captain Allen that they're home." "Aye sir!", The Corporal said. Spartan Alpha 91: Pelican Dropship Commander Bridge was sitting at the end of the pelican and looked out of the ramp doorway. He mostly saw green and mountains across the land. The ponies, Alpha Nine, and Fireteam Aqua were inside of the ship and they were asking questions to Dutch, Romeo, and Mickey while the Rookie was taking a nap. "We heard from our scouts that there was going to be a changeling army attacking all of Equestria. Instead we went to check out those loud noises and we found all of you attacking the changeling army.", Luna said. "We're there any casualties for you? Because I'm just curious about this event." "Let's just say we had none of our soldiers dead.", Dutch replied. "And we estimated that we have about 67 wounded but they'll live. They have a few burns that our medics can take care of. There were about 600 dead changelings" "Six hundred?!", Twilight pointed out. "How can there be six hundred dead changelings when you have only 67 wounded?" "Because we are super advanced in technology miss.", Bridge replied. "We are not just advanced in technology, we are also masters of warfare." "Interesting, but what are you like the military or something?", Celestia asked. "We are from the UNSC which stands for: United Nations Space Command.", Bridge said. "It's our military which houses several branches such as: Marine Corps, Army, Special Forces, Navy, Defense Force, Air Force, and the Office of Naval Intelligence.", Bridge said. "That's cool. What are you suppose to be mister?", Rainbowdash said. "I'm a Spartan, which is a super soldier. We are the best of the best besides the ODST's like Alpha Nine over here. ODST's are: Orbital Drop Shock Troopers.", Bridge replied. "Can you tell us more?", Luna asked. "Everyone we're landing.", Eagle said to the group in the back. The pelican drops hip landed next to a pelican gunship and two scorpion tanks which engineers were making repairs on after the battle. Captain Allen was walking towards the pelican with ODST Captain Dare a squad of marines with him as an escort. When they arrived he saw Alpha Nine, Commander Bridge, a squad of marines, and the group of horses with them. "Hello I'm guessing your Captain Allen if I'm right?", Celestia asked. "Yes I'm Captain Allen who are you?", The Captain asked. "I'm Princess Celestia, the ruler of Equestria with my sister, Princess Luna.", Celestia said as she looked at the Captain who had blue eyes, black hair, and his white navy uniform which had several ribbons and medals on it. "I'm sure you two already met Commander Bridge, Fireteam Aqua, and Alpha Nine.", Captain Allen said. "Wait, who's the commander around here?", Applejack asked. "I am.", The Spartan said in a low tone as she looked in to his white visor. "We are already agreeing on peace negotiations with humans.", Celestia said. "Well I'm surprised.", Dare said. "Alpha Nine get some rest you deserve it." Alpha Nine walked away and then Bridge, Hannah, Dare, Captain Allen, Princess Luna, and Princess Celestia talked about peace negotiations. "I'm glad that you will be allies of us soon and do you know how to go back home?", Celestia asked. "Did Bridge tell you how we got here?", Captain Allen asked. "Yes he told he how you got here in your ship and how the asteroid damaged your ship. Queen Chrysailis sent the asteroid at you." "Queen Chrysailis?" "She's the Changeling queen and you already destroyed their army from destroying our cities and stealing our love." "Well that's a good thing that we did for you. I guess you owe us a favor." "We do. Since we're now allies what will you do now?" "Well since the Euclid's Anvil's shields are destroyed, the Titanium-A3 armor plating is critically damaged, our primary and secondary engines are destroyed, the Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine, the triple fusion reactor and most on board systems are destroyed or damaged so we can't fly in our ship. I guess we're staying here for a while." "For how long?" "Who know's, it might take days, months, or years. From what I can tell we're going to-." "I just got a brilliant idea!", Bridge interrupted. "What is it son?", Captain Allen asked. "I got reports from Lieutenant Lee that reported that there's a large amount of metal in these mountains. Iron, Steel, you name it. I was thinking if we should build a base here in the mountain.", Bridge replied. "It's true. I'm detecting that there's a large portion of iron next to our base about 2 miles from here.", Hannah said over Bridge's helmet's speakers. "I agree Captain, that's a good idea since we're staying here for a while. I'm sure the boys want a roof over their heads rather than nothing or just tents forever.", Dare said. "Princess is it okay if we build a base here for the time being?", Captain Allen asked the white alicorn. "Why sure you can. Feel free to, besides our relations as allies is growing very stronger. We're glad to have you here.", Princess Celestial said. "Sir I'll have some teams ready to go where the iron deposit is.", Bridge said. "I will to.", Dare said. "Alright, bring some warthogs with you just in case.", Captain Allen said. "Affirmative!", Both Bridge and Dare replied back to the Captain. "Wait until you meet Fleet Admiral Lord Hood ma'am. He's the de facto leader of the UNSC and he leads our navy. But that's a while until we reach contact.", Captain Allen said. "So what is your world name?", Celestia asked. "Her name is Earth." "So what's it like?" "We hand a moon that we call Luna. Our planet orbits around our sun with seven other celestial bodies named: Mercurey, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. There's another planet called Pluto , but it's a dwarf planet. Earth is our race's home world." "So your sun and moon aren't controlled?" "No, our planet orbits around the sun and our moon orbits around Earth." "I see. It's quite interesting that you call your moon Luna. That's my sister's name." "Well what a coincidence!" "I will tell the nation about your arrival. Do you feel okay about this?" "Yes, I will attend with Dare, Alpha Nine, Hannah, and Commander Bridge. We'll leave when you're ready with us." "Splendid, then I'll see if-." There was a loud crash on the other side of the camp that everyone heard from the mantis's. "SPENCER! What are you doing over there!? You better not have dropped that generator again, that thing is very expensive!", Bridge shouted as he walked over there with Dare. "Sorry about that.", Captain Allen said. "Alright when do you want to have the nation know of your presence?",'Celestia asked "Tomorrow, and please make sure that your guards don't react when they see us tomorrow." "Don't worry I will." Part 9: Alpha Base Part 9: Alpha Base UNSC Spartan Alpha 91: 12:25 hours "Bridge, me and Fireteam Aqua are going to meet the princesses and negotiate peace terms for a while. Are you sure you can handle things around here for a while?", Captain Allen asked while he boarded a pelican dropship with Fireteam Aqua inside. "Affirmative.", Bridge said. "Alright. I'm leaving the construction up to you, Dare, Hannah, and Lieutenant Lee while we're gone.", The captain responded while adjusting the collar of his navy uniform. "Good luck sir." "You too Spartan." The pelican dropship ascended above the ground with it's engines roaring and took off to Canterlot. Bridge then made his way to Lieutenant Lee and Dare while the two were talking with Alpha Nine. "Alright, let's get started people.", Bridge said. "I'm ready sir.", Lieutenant Lee responded. "Me too sir.", Dare replied. "Okay then. Hannah we need to start the construction of Alpha Base ASAP.",Bridge said. "Affirmative Bridge, where should we start?", His A.I. responded. UNSC Captain Andrew R. Allen: 12:50 hours "Why do we always have to be the escort Sarge?", PFC Millard asked the Sargent. "Listen here son, we are good at escort and we'll be doing it at all times with the Captain. That's an order!", Sergeant Smith replied. "You said it Miranda!", Sergeant Philips said. "Hey if we go back to Earth, how about we go have a drink together?", Smith asked her boyfriend who was next to her. "Alright I'm in.", Philips responded. "Everyone were approaching our destination!", Eagle said to the group in the back. "You heard him men! Be ready just in case!", Sergeant Smith said as she loaded a fresh clip into her battle rifle. Canterlot Castle "They should be here in few minutes sister.", Celestial said. "Yes Tia. Are you sure that the guards won't panic and attack?", Luna asked. "I'm sure I told Captain Armor to have his guards to be calm and to not panic. Captain Allen is a reasonable human. And he agreed to negotiate peace with us." "I'm sure that he'll be arriving with his escort?" "Yes, but his soldiers with him are called the marines." "I see." "Do you think that the changeling threat is done forever?" "Maybe. If it wasn't for the humans then our most important cities would be demolished forever." "I'm sure Chrysailis won't mess with them again." "Tia they're here." They saw the pelican dropship descend its landing gear and they saw Captain Allen in his uniform with Fireteam Aqua who exited out of the pelican's rear hatch. Some of the guards were paralyzed at the pelican and the figures who came out who wearing green and slightly brown outfits except for one who wore white. "Hello princess it's good to see you again!", Captai. Allen said in a cheerful tone. "Yes it's good to see you too!", Celestial said as Captain Allen shook his hand with Celestia's hoof. "Shall we proceed?", The captain asked. "Sure right this way.", Celestia replied. "Uh captain, can me and the elements are going to see the rest of the humans? We would like to see them.", Luna asked. "Sure, with commander Bridge's permission he'll let you see him and the rest of them.", Captain Allen replied. "I guess he's alright with it sister.", Celestia said. "I'll see you later sister.", Luna said. UNSC Spartan Alpha 91 16:35 hours The entire crew of the 'Euclid's Anvil' we're working hard on the base construction. There were workers, pieces of machinery, flat bed warthogs, and tools everywhere. Bridge was checking up on the base construction until he saw a blue burst in front of him. "Hello Commander.", Luna said. "Hello Princess Luna. Is there something that I can help you with?", Bridge asked. "Is it alright to you if we can visit while my sister and Captain Allen are negotiating?" "Alright fine if you don't touch ANYTHING of our's or distract our men I'll be fine with you here." "Thank you, and Commander?" "Yes?" "We noticed that you are bigger than everypony here. Why is that?" "It's everyone not everypony to us. And I mentioned that I'm a Spartan, I'm no ordinary soldier. I'm a generically enhanced super soldier that is the best of the best in our military. I'm a professional soldier." "Why did you decide to become what you are now?" "I wasn't. I was kidnapped." "How old?" "I was six years old." "Why would you be kidnapped at six?!", Twilight asked. "We were chosen to serve. I became a Spartan II with the rest of the cadets on Reach. We went under augmentation procedures which made us bigger, stronger, faster, better immune system, smarter, faster healing, and more dangerous to our opponents. I was one of the best.", Bridge said. "What about the others?", Luna asked. "Some either became crippled, permanently paralyzed, or dead.", Bridge stated. "I'm sorry if I shouldn't asked that question." "It's fine. I'm okay with it." "Do you have manners to a girl?", Rarity asked. "Yes I do.", Bridge said. "Have you thought of removing that helmet of yours?", Luna asked. "I only remove it in front of the people that I can trust, higher officials, and my A.I.", Bridge said. "Hey big sis, we came to see the aliens!", A female voice said. Bridge reacted and grabbed his Assault Rifle from where he was sitting and be aimed at three small creatures. "State your business!", Bridge yelled as he pointed his weapon at the small horses heads. "Sorry, we came with to see our sisters if they're okay.", The orange one said. "Darling why are you here? We told you to stay home!", Rarity said. "Sorry sis. We wanted to come with you.", The white one said. Bridge lowered his weapon and talked to the small horses. "What are your names young ones?", Bridge asked. "I'm Scootalo and this is Apple Bloom and Sweetie Bell.", The orange pony said. "What's your's?" "Hi I'm Commander Bridge, but you can just call me Bridge for short.", The Spartan replied. "What's that kind of armor you're wearing?", Sweetie Bell asked. "It's MJOLNIR powered assault armor for Spartans.", Bridge said. "So what? I bet your armor won't stop you from a kick!", Rainbow Dash said. "Try it.", Bridge replied in a solid tone. Rainbow Dash kicked the Spartan's armor and his armor glowed with a yellow aura around it. He looked at his energy shield's and the attack only took about 5% of his shields. Under his helmet Bridge grinned with an evil smile. "What the hay?! What was that?", The Pegasus asked. "Oh yeah I forgot to tell you about that Spartans have energy shields which absorb damage from enemy attacks and they are powered by a fusion reactor built in the suits. A single spear or arrow that your guard use wouldn't do a single scratch to my armor a bit.", Bridge replied. "That's like our kind of shields which are used by our magic. But it takes some of our strength to use them while your's doesn't.", Luna said. "What exactly is a fusion reactor?", Twilight asked while looking at the Spartan's armor. "The fusion reactor provides power the armor's shield's and all equipment of the MJOLNIR armor. It's the most essential part of our armor or else without a fusion reactor our armor wouldn't even work.", Bridge replied. "That's so cool! Where do we get your kind of armor?", Apple Bloom asked. "You CAN'T get it. You can only get Spartan Armor if you're in the Spartan program. And I don't think you ponies would be capable of lifting and handling a half-ton suit made of titanium." "Why would a person like you be able to lift a half-ton without any magic?", Twilight asked. "Remember? Spartans are stronger than other humans and during our augmentation procedures made us to lift three times our weight. I was one of the originals in the Spartan two program. We also had Spartan Three's, but the Spartan two's were more effective and skilled. Now we have the new Spartan Four program and I'm one of the leaders of the program. The armor that I have is Spartan Four armor on right now.", Bridge replied. "Do you have any other branches that aren't for combat?", Luna asked. "Well we have a lot. Equipment staff, maintenance crew, engineers, cooks, workers, janitors, and some other minor branches.", Bridge said. "Do you have animals?", Fluttershy asked. "Yes we do. Riley come here boy!", Bridge called out to a German Shepard. The dog came to his right side and he had his ears up and wagging his tail. "He's cute!", Fluttershy said. "Yeah he's a good dog. Don't make him angry okay?" "Okay.", Flittershy said as she was petting Riley. "I heard that you could go to other planets if I'm right? You are capable of interstellar space travel?", Twilight asked. "Yes we had colonies, hundreds of them. We found out how to use slipspace technology for our ships and expanded beyond other star systems. Until the Covenant came and started to glass planet after planet during the war. Over 23 billion lives were lost during the war. But now we're rebuilding and we've found new planets to colonize.", Bridge replied. "How did this war you speak about started?", Luna asked. "It first began with a planet that we had named: Harvest. It was the beginning when they glassed the planet and then the UNSC and the Spartan's took the fight to the Covenant. They started a civil war against mankind and they believed that we were a problem to their religious goals. We never backed down on our people during the war. It took five long years to get Harvest back, it was hell on that planet. And then the crew of the 'UNSC Spirit of Fire' went there and found that the Covenant were looking for something. Professor Anders was kidnapped my the Arbiter of the Covenant and the crew of the 'Spirit of Fire' went from Harvest to Arcadia City and then to a forerunner shield world and Sergeant Forge sacrificed himself to destroy an invasion fleet that the Covenant formed from forerunner ships and it was destroyed with the help of Spartan Red Team.", Bridge said. "In the ship that you crashed in do you know what it was?", Twilight asked. "The 'Euclid's Anvil' is one of the four main Autumn-Class heavy cruisers in the UNSC. It was originally made in honor of the 'Pillar of Autumn' Halcyon-Class Heavy Cruiser. They are our newest cruiser addition since after the Human-Covenant war. We have more of the Autumn-Class cruisers but they all have different names like all other ships like the 'UNSC Justice and Vengeance' or the 'UNSC Eye of the Sky' Autumn-Class heavy cruisers. Our ships are made out of titanium and we have thousands of warships at the UNSC's disposal.", Bridge replied. "It was nice talking to you, but I think we'd better go. It's getting late soon.", Luna said. "Alright well it was nice to talk to all of you.", The Spartan replied. "We'll see you soon.", Luna finished as they went away from Alpha Base's construction. "Did you hear that Princess? They have thousands of ships made of titanium lay their disposal with advanced technology that no pony has ever seen before.", Twilight said. "The Spartan's right. They have way advanced technology than we do. We should not become hostile with them.", Luna stated. "That Spartan thinks he's soo cool with his advanced suit and weaponry, but I'm cooler than anypony else!", Rainbowdash said. "Rainbowdash don't get on his nerve's he said he a professional. Let's go see my sister. She's probably waiting for us right now.", Luna said as the teleported to Canterlot.
Part 1: ArrivalEquestria, Canterlot Castle throne room: 13:00 hours (military time: [aka:1:00]) "Hello Celestia I came here as fast as I can.", Twilight said as she opened the door to the throne room using her magic. "I'm glad you could make my grateful student. I'm sure you've known about other galaxies right?", The alicorn Princess said. "Yes princess." "Our astronomers and your friend Lyra have found a new star system right next to ours. It's shape is giant and it's going in a spiral." "Wow princess that must be amazing to our astronomers!" "Then I have a new assignment for you." "Then I'm listening!" "Are you able find more about this new galaxy and its planets within it?" "Yes I won't let you down princess!" "You should consider your friends into this along with Lyra im sure they'll like this." "Alright then see you later princess!" Twilight then left the throne room and went to get her friends. UNSC Office of Naval Intelligence: Earth, 15:00 hours "Everyone, we are here for is something brand new." Lord Hood said as he turned on a 3D image. "Some of the brainiacs from HQ have found a new star system that's close to Earth. It has a planet that's like Reach and Earth combined into one. It's atmosphere is breathable, water and oxygen are present on the surface, and it's able to have any life on the planet, though we don't know what the name of the planet is yet our teams and astronomers are working on it." "Do we know any species on the planet lord hood?", Captain Allen said. "No but your ship the Euclid's Anvil is assigned to go and scout the planet with these coordinates.", Hood said as he handed the captain a computer chip. "My crew will be ready sir. We also need him to be ready with us and then we're good to go." "Alright Captain, get your men and women ready. You're all going on a mission." "Yes sir." "Get Alpha 091 on the line." "Yes sir Lord Hood.", a private said as he turned on a flat screen. Euclid's Anvil Hanger Bay #2: 15:05 "This is Spartan 091, Bridge with A.I. Hannah reporting for duty sir!", the Spartan said as he gave Lord Hood a salute. Pauses "Oh yeah, my name's Bryce A. But people call me Bridge." Resumes "Son this is Lord Hood, the UNSC Euclid's Anvil is getting ready for a mission to a new planet near Earth. I want you with Captain Allen and your A.I. to be on this mission. Your time of departure is 5 hours so be prepared, Hood out." The Spartan in the hanger bay was menacing figure. He stood at a full 6.8 feet with black painted Spartan 4 armor. He had white stripes down his helmet, legs, and chest, also had his rank: senior chief petty officer. He had the symbols on his shoulder pads and arms. And he had a black visor. He was from the first Spartan program with Master Chief and they were like brothers. Still, he remembers the good times with him, killing the Covenant on the battlefield with heavy weapons and explosives. But his real brother Noble six died on Reach and he misses his brother, he got killed by the goddamn elites after that he was gone. The Master Chief now is somewhere classified but he's still a good friend of his. He still remembers the motto: Spartans don't die, they're just missing in action. "Well looks like we're going on another adventure Bridge.", the A.I. said and chuckled slightly. "Your right Hannah, who knows what might be on this new planet that we'll find out.", Bridge said. (You could say that Bridge and Hannah are like chief and Cortana but they're different characters. UNSC Euclid's Anvil, space: 22:00 hours. Hanger bay #4 "Well Bridge I'm glad you could make it. Hood gave me some of your new equipment modifications to your armor.", Captain Allen said. "Alright go ahead then.", Bridge replied. "Alright first things first your shields can now substain 50% more damage which make's you better on offensive and defensive. Second your new Spartan 4 Armor now has magnetics, say if there's low gravity inside a ship your armor now can stay to the ground and move freely. Third you can carry more weapons on your back. And last but not least you now have a built in jet-pack so there's no need to carry one on your back. Bridge then tested out the jet-pack and flew around a while. "Now that is fucking sick man!", Bridge said. "Well that's all there is son, if you need me or Hannah we'll be on the Bridge.", the captain said. "Yes sir." Euclid's Anvil: Orbiting unknown planet, The Bridge: 08:40 hours "Captain we're at our coordinates.", the A.I. said. "In my opinion that planet looks a lot like Earth.", Bridge said. "Same here Bridge.", the Captain replied. "The crew is scanning the planet. We just received word that the atmosphere is equal to Earth's with no pollution. It's air is breathable and we can't figure out the name of the planet. For now we'll call it sector DH-03. And for the planet's animal species we haven't figured out yet but our teams are working on it." "Captain asteroid incoming!", a crew member said. Boooooommmm!!!!! "The entire body of the ship rocked with alarms going off with red lights flashing all around inside the ship." "What the hell was that explosion?!", the captain yelled. "Let me look Captain.", Hannah said while overviewing the damage done by the asteroid. "What is it Hannah?", Bridge said. "That asteroid was very large. It crashed into the engine's critically damaging them. We got a fire in the engine room and the engines are loosing power fast!" "Captain, the engines are offline!", another crew member said. "Dammit guys we're screwed!", Bridge yelled. "We are starting to be pulled into the planet's atmosphere but slow though!", Hannah said. "Hell we have no choice. We're abandoning the ship. Bridge get as much people as you can off of this ship we are going to crash land. Load up the transports and get out of here, that means you to Hannah, your going with Bridge.", The captain said. "What about you sir?", Bridge ask. "I'm going down with the ship. I won't leave my beauty, she's important to me." "Alright then, Bridge yank me.", Hannah said. Bridge then pulled her out of the console and placed her in his helmet. "Now go Bridge! Go help the others! I'll be fine here.", The captain said. Bridge then left the bridge and then went to the the armory. Alert, crew we're abandoning ship! Prepare Pelicans for evac ASAP! Said an officer from the bridge. "Bridge what's going on?", A female officer said while Bridge ran through the hallway from the bridge. "We're abandoning the Euclid's Anvil. Alert the Pelican pilots!" "Aye sir!" "Shouldn't you get stocked up?", Hannah asked. "I was already going to it when you mentioned that Hannah.", Bridge complied. "Well what are you waiting for gear up!" Bridge finally made his way to the armory and saw a massive amount of guns in it. He chose specifically on what to bring. He chose dual magnums and attached them to his legs with one on each side. Next he grabbed a shotgun and placed it on his back with a sniper rifle, then he picked up an assault rifle, and last but not least he grabbed four fragmentation grenades and left the armory to the hanger. "Are you sure this isn't a little over-kill Bridge?", Hannah asked. "I'm sure of it Hannah.", the Spartan replied. Hanger Bay #1 Several Marines and ODST's began to load D79H-TC Pelican troop transports and G79H-TC/MA Pelican gunships and transports with medical supplies, ammunition, food, other supplies, and vehicles onto the Pelicans which included standard, gauss, rocket, and troop transport warthogs, Mongoose ATV's, Scorpion tanks, and Mantis robots. (What? They're drifting very slow and the crew is going to land on an unexplored planet. They obviously need supplies because no one know's what to expect down there on the surface. Don't you criticize me. If you didn't know there are two pelican types in halo 4. One is a bigger troop transport that that can hold about 20 people and the gunship can hold about 14 people but has more powerful weapons such as a Spartan laser and can carry mobile weapons in compartments on both sides. (If you played halo 4 where you pilot the pelican and you can get weapons front the pelican's side then you know what I'm talking about) The gunship can be a mobile armory while the other counterpart doesn't. You can tell the difference by the gunships green color and the troop transports gray-blackish color. For more go to the Halo wikia) Several Broadsword and Longsword aircraft were taking off as well with the Pelicans. Bridge and Hannah then boarded the last Pelican troop transport off the ship with a troop transport warthog for at least 2-7 people that it can carry with supplies. The Pelicans, Longswords, and Broadswords were airborne and headed towards the planet's surface. "Sir we're heading towards the surface.", the pilot said. "Alright good.", Bridge said. "We are going to make it right sir? I don't want to die.", an ODST by the name of Dutch said. "Relax soldier you'll be fine.", Bridge replied. "Are you sure that we'll make it into the atmosphere Bridge?", Hannah said. "We'll be fine I'm sure of it." "Well I hope so." "Sir we've made it past the atmosphere. We're here!", the pilot said. "Good tell the rest of the airborne units to follow us and find an LZ.", Bridge said. "Affirmative sir!" "I hope this goes smoothly Bridge.", Hannah said. "We'll be fine Hannah just trust me on this." "I hope you'll jinx it though." "When have I ever let each other down Hannah?" "Never since we met two years ago." "Well prepare yourself baby." "Oh stop it you make me blush!", Hannah said as she chuckled a bit while she was blushing for an A.I. Ponyville Golden Oaks Libary:09:00 hours "Ugh, Twilight how long until this ends?", Rainbowdash asked. "Hold your hooves RD, we'll be done soon.", Twilight said. "What do ya'll think what kind of species that lies in that galaxy girls?", Applejack asked. "If aliens are real then we might have a chance to meet them. They might have cute animals on the planet(s).", Fluttershy said. "Ooohh! Maybe they like cupcakes and parties!", Pinkie said. "If they meet us I should have a 'Welcome Aliens' party for them and the-!" "I think we get it now darling.", Rarity said. "Who knows what these new 'aliens' are or if they're real or not. Besides it'll be a while before we meet them if any exist.", Lyra said. "I agree with Lyra everypony. Who knows what if aliens are real or not. If they were real I would like to meet one.", Spike said. "I'm with ya dude!", Rainbowdash said. "Me too!", Pinkie said. "I want still want to throw a party for-." "Girls come up here!", Twilight shouted. "What is it darling?", Rarity asked as all of them headed towards the balcony. "What are those things out there?", Twilight said as the bird-like objects came closer.
Part 2: Crash-LandingUNSC Spartan 091 Bridge's location: Pelican dropship. Enroute to LZ: 09:05 hours "We're fine so far sir.", The pilot said to Bridge. "Look escape pods!", Bridge said as escape pods were flying over them. "To all airborne units this is A.I. Hannah, we have escape pods with men to rescue in them." "Affirmative Hannah!", a pelican pilot said. "There are twelve escape pods so we'll have to split up into groups. Alpha group go to the North-West, we'll go for the middle as Bravo, and Charlie goes to the North-East.", Hannah said "Roger that, heading toward escape pods now.", a female pilot said. "Bring as much survivors as you can everyone.", Hannah said. Canterlot Castle: Throne Room "Sister meteors have fallen from the sky! They have landed throughout Ponyville and the Everfree forest!", Luna said in a very worried statement. "Check if anypony is hurt quick and get the Royal Giard as well! I'll send a letter to Twilight and her friends!", Celestia said. Escape pod #5: Ponyville: 09:10 hours. Sargent Smith "Is everybody alright?", the female Sergeant said while still strapped to her seat. Everyone in the pod responded with a "yes" nor just nodded. The pod was now stuck in the dirt. She looked around and observed her marine squad. They had only two casualties: The pilot's legs were broken and one of her marine's had his strap's ripped and sent him flying toward the wall knocking him out cold but she guessed that he'll be awake in a while. Other than the medic or the Sargent herself it was her newest squad member: Private William Hall. She strapped the belts off of her and began giving her marine's orders. "Get the hatch open and get our wounded out of here while I find a first aid men." "Yes Ma'am!", Corporal Wilkens from the group said. The Corporal kicked the door down and three marines took point with their weapons raised. They took the private and the pod pilot from the inside and the medic and Sargent Smith gave them medical support. "Sergeant look it's the UNSC Euclid's Anvil she's going to crash!", one of the privates said. He pointed out to the sky and they all saw the Euclid's Anvil heading towards their direction but it went over them while debris fell from the sky and landing near them but they were lucky enough that none of the debris hitted them. The ship then went towards a dark green forest and they then heard a giant crash sound from the forest but they couldn't see the ship anymore. Then then saw ODST pods falling from the sky. They all landed separately around the town but one flipped upside down when it hitted a building and landed right next to Smith's squad's pod and they saw an upside down ODST drop pod and helped the person inside of it and they got the pod open and saw a figure: He was ODST Rookie. He wore standard ODST armor and had a white stripe down his arms, legs, and helmet. He was a mute soldier but he was like a Spartan in combat. His weapons included a special silenced SMG with a small scope on it and a magnum pistol along with a few fragmentation grenades with him. He then climbed out of the pod that was upside down and was on his feet five seconds later and gave the marines a wave with his hand as his message of saying 'hi'. "This is UNSC A.I. Hannah does anyone down below hear me?" "This is Sergeant Smith we read you loud and clear over." "We've found your crash site with some other pods around this town. Hopefully the locals are friendly. The area that you're in is a very large town square it should hold most of our Pelicans. We're almost there hang tight over." "Roger that Hannah, we're waiting." Golden Oaks Library Twilight just got a scroll from Celestia and read it at a very quick pace. Dear Twilight Sparkle I am aware of the meteors that crashed and I need you and Luna to investigate them and see if anypony is okay. Hurry we can't let this situation out of hand. Sincerely, Princess Celestia "Come on girls, we need to help Princess Luna!", Twilight said as they ran to the door Luna had appeared in the doorway. "Oh hello Princess Lu-", Twilight said. "Now is not the time Twilight we need to move now! Follow me." "What is going on Princess Luna?", Spike asked. "Me and my sister were talking and then we got reports that meteors fell and now it's a catastrophe right now." Obove them, eight bird like objects flew above them and flew to the center of town making very loud sounds. "Let's see what's going on that way." Twilight said. After a short wait at the LZ six troop transports and two gunships landed and unloaded supplies, troops, and 3 transport Warthogs, 2 standard mounted machine gun Warthog, a scorpion tank, two mongooses and a heavily modified Mantis robot vehicle. Bridge was at the LZ and was giving orders to the marines to secure the area and help the other injured soldiers or ODST's around town. They then heard a crowd of horse like creatures watching them. They were all different colors and some had horns and wings on their body. "This could get interesting Bridge.", Hannah said in Bridge's helmet. "Let's hope they don't turn hostile towards us Hannah and we'll be fine.", Bridge replied. "I'm keeping my fingers crossed on that one Bridge."
Part 3: Meet the crew, search and rescueSpartan Alpha 091 CODENAME: Bridge, Ponyville: 9:20. 10 minutes after Euclid's Anvil's crash landing The LZ had Pelican gunships, and troop transports from group Alpha. There were several crates of supplies that the Marine's and ODST's stored inside the Pelicans with vehicles that the Pelicans carried in the back. They were unknown what to do next. And secretly a group of 9 figures were watching them from a hill. "What kind of creatures are those Princess Luna?", Twilight asked. "I don't know Twilight. What do those words, 'Marines' and 'U.N.S.C.'mean?" "Oh! Maybe they're something secret.", Lyra replied. "Let's not shout and give away our position everypony, or else these creatures will know that we're here. For now let's keep watching them.", Luna said. "Sergeant Smith, give me a status report.", Bridge asked. "We've found a spot to rest sir and we have group Bravo searching for a place to set up camp while Charlie finds more survivors from any more escape pods. And also why do we have a ton of supplies with all of our Pelicans when we should evacuated off the ship ?", Smith replied. "Well after I left the armory the captain told me on the com-channels that we need all of this because this IS a planet that we've never been on and we were drifting very slowly in space before the Euclid's Anvil was heading towards this planet's atmosphere. And who knows what's on this planet, for what I know if we didn't have these supplies then we would have been walking blind Sargent." "I see your point there sir." "However, our landing and the 'Euclid's Anvil's' crash should've attracted attention from the locals." "What should we do now sir?" "For the hundreth time Sergeant Smith don't call me sir all the time!" "Sorry." "What we should do now is that we should lay low. Also if we meet any locals on this planet we play it cool and don't panic. I'll search party to rescue any survivors from the 'Euclid's Anvil'." "Who are you sending to the ship?" "The best that we've got. You four get over here!" "Yes sir!", an ODST replied. Four ODST's lined up in front of Bridge and Smith and they stood as still as a statue in front of them. "Sergeant I would like you to meet these soldiers that I know from ODST group Alpha nine. First one's Corporal 'Dutch'.", Bridge said. "Pleasure to meet you Sargent.", Dutch replied. Dutch is one of the 'cool guys' in the UNSC and he usually calls himself awesome after a fight on the battlefield. He is very honest to his squad. "This one's Lance Corpral 'Romeo'." "Hello ma'am.", Romeo said. Romeo is a black soldier who is usually lucky with the ladies and he's very good at killing his targets when he's far away with a sniper rifle. He's the party guy and he loves them. "Next here is Private First Class 'Mickey'." "Reporting for duty!", Mickey yelled as he gave both of them a salute. Mickey is a brave ODST who loves explosives and always listens to orders. And he's very loyal to his squad and others with him. "And last but not least Lance Corpral 'Rookie'." Rookie was silent and just did a wave at Sargent Smith. Rookie is an ODST who's not very green but he's a very brave soldier. He helped his friends in Mombassa during the Battle of Earth. He somehow managed to survive through the night in war-torn Mombassa while looking for his squad. He might be shy but once when you get to know him he'll talk eventually. "Is he going to say anything?", Smith asked Bridge. "Negative, he doesn't talk. Or maybe he does but I don't know its personal to him.", Bridge said. "What do you need us for sir?", Dutch asked to Bridge. "I'm sending you on a mission to find any survivors at the 'Euclid's Anvil's' crash site and bring them here.", Bridge replied in a solid tone. "Wait! How do we know if anyone is still alive in that hunk of metal?", Romeo said. "Relax dude, we don't do anything stupid and we'll be fine.", Mickey assured. "Before I send you four off I have some things for you all of you.", Bridge added. "Oh so we get gifts?", Mickey asked with a somewhat surprised tone. "Well you could say that Mickey, I was informed by ONI to give you four these weapons but until we were hit by the asteroid we didn't have time. Anyways I have them right now just wait for a minute." Bridge then brought a supply crate and took the top off which revealed several weapons inside the crate and handed one weapon to Dutch. "Hey it's nice to have a Spartan laser again, I love these things!", Dutch said as he examined it. "This one's been modified Dutch", Bridge said. Dutch perked up to Bridge's statement. "This Spartan laser has an energy core which has unlimited firing use. This one costs a a lot money Dutch but it pack's a punch. If you don't overheat it the core will still be able to use. "Oh I'm going to love this!", Dutch said. "As for Romeo I have a specialized sniper for you. This sniper can use a suppressor which doesn't reduce your damage or range. It also can use a flash suppressor it can get rid of your bullet's track when you fire but you'll give away the sound of the rifle's shots." "Man this thing's a beast!", Romeo assured. "Mickey you get a rocket launcher that has highly explosive and armor penetration rockets. They can even tear through about 3 inches of steel armor if you use one of these bad boys." "Awesome! Whoever threatens me prepare to die!", Mickey said. "And as for Rookie your given two modified smg's with suppressors and a scope on them. Their suppressor makes less noise and they do more damage, the same goes with your pistol. I have one sky for all of you guys except for Rookie." "Seems reasonable sir.", Dutch said. I have a two Pelicans on standby for your mission. Grab any survivors and bring them to the Pelicans. Maybe if the Captain is still alive bring him back in one piece. You got me soldiers?" "Yes sir we gotcha!", Mickey replied. "Alright move out now!" All the ODST's gave a "Yes sir!" and headed to the two troop transports and headed off to the Euclid's Anvil. "Bridge this is Bravo team. We've found a spot to set up camp. It has a mountain blocking us, a river, and we got supplies being unloaded right now.", Bravo team leader said. "Alright good work, give us your co-ordinates and we'll be there shortly.", Bridge replied. "We're sending them to you now sir." "Got it, we're moving out right now. Any new updates from Group Charlie?" "They found more survivors and are still landing back here. It's been going on for a long time." "Thanks Lieutenant, Bridge out. Sargent Smith tell the troops to load the vehicles up and be ready for dust-off." "Yes sir!", Smith said. "And do it quick, Hannah I have a feeling that we're being watched." "I don't see anything Bridge. You probably need some rest.", His A.I. said. "Also I've analyzed the asteroid that had hit the Euclid's Anvil, it was no ordinary asteroid. A regular asteroid that would hit us would do almost no damage since we had our shields up. I wonder if someone sent it after us" "Are you sure that sounds like crap to me.", Bridge replied. "How in the fuck can anyone send an asteroid on a direct course for us? That makes no sense at all!" "Maybe, I'm still reviewing it just in case." The Pelicans from Alpha Team loaded up and headed towards Bravo Team's location. "Wait they're leaving?", Luna asked. "Maybe they're going somewhere where we don't know.", Twilight said. "Should we follow them because I want to see why they're here for.", Rainbowdash said. "We shouldn't, we can't keep up with them and we could be spotted by them.", Luna said. "Let's go back to Canterlot and discuss this to my sister, she'll know what to do." "Alright Princess, we'll be with you always.", Twilight said. "Thanks Twilight and every pony, we must go to Canterlot now. I'll teleport us there.", Luna said. Luna then casted a spell and then all of the eight mares and the baby dragon appeared in the royal castle in Canterlot. Group Alpha Nine: 9:30, Euclid's Anvil's crash site. Alpha nine have reached the Euclid's Anvil crash site and they saw the ship. It had plowed through the terrain and just stopped before hitting a side of a mountain. They saw the ship in a wreck with hunks and sheets of metal on the ground and other pieces of debris with it. Their Pelican landed and they then climbed out and headed towards the crash site. "Alpha Nine this is Hannah.", The A.I. said. "I checked the crash site and it should be safe if you don't screw things up for example, blowing up the engine generators. You should find an entrance into the ship from where you are but small pieces debris are blocking it. You should be able to get through if you use something useful. Good luck, Hannah out." "Roger that ma'am.", Dutch said. "How could anybody survive this mess?", Romeo asked. "Let's hope some people managed to survive this.", Mickey replied. "I found an entrance here everyone!", Dutch yelled. They arrived at an airlock but it was blocked by debris. It was blocked by plates of metal and other materials from the ship. "How the hell are we going to get through this?", Romeo said. "Maybe if we move that piece is steel we shou-.", Dutch replied but to be cut off by Mickey. "FIRE IN THE HOLE!!!!!", Mickey screamed. He fired a rocket and it blew up all of the debris in the passage way. "JESUS FUCKING CHIRST MICKEY!!!", Dutch yelled. "Do you want this thing to come down on all of us?!" "Well hey it was worth it.", Mickey replied. "At least we got through so let's get going!" "Never do that AGAIN. Let's go inside now.", Dutch added. Alpha nine went into the ship and continued their mission to rescue any survivors. Secret base: Location; Unknown "Well the asteroid worked alright." "Yes it worked your highness. What should we do now?" "Prepare our numbers because the princess's will be crushed soon. And then I will rule Equestria forever!"
Part 4: Camp and search and rescue part 2ODST Group Alpha Nine: 9:50; Euclid's Anvil's crash site The ODST's of Alpha nine just entered the the Euclid's Anvil. They had their silenced smg's with a scope which ODST's usually carry. They were ready in case of hostile's. There were damaged walls, broken doors, electric sparks coming out from control panels, and broken debris everywhere inside the ship. "This place is a pigsty .", Dutch said. "I don't like this, nobody would have survived this wreck." "Have some faith man.", Mickey replied. "At LEAST one crew member could have survived this. Since the shields were barely standing when we dropped in our pods. I'm surprised Rookie didn't pass out like from the Battle of Earth in New Mombassa." Rookie then tapped Mickey on his left shoulder and pointed to Mickey's right. "What is it Rookie?", Mickey said. "Ah it's nothing Roo-" Before Mickey could finish his sentence he turned to Rookie and he saw Rookie flipping him off in just dead silence with a devilish glare. "I guess Rookie didn't like your comment a minute ago.", Romeo said. "Kiss my ass Romeo! I didn't mean to offend him.", Mickey replied. "Will you two just shut the hell up now? I see something up ahead, be ready.", Dutch whispered. Canterlot Castle: Throne Room; 15 minutes before Alpha Nine's search The group of ponies and the baby dragon were in Celestia's throne room and Luna had very urgent news to her sister. Luna believed that the problem with aliens in Equestria was going to get worse. "Good morning sister.", Luna said to her sister. "You to sister.", Celestia said back. "Do you have any news about the meteors that crashed?" "Well yes but there's something else.", Luna replied in a very nervous tone. "Me and the others were scouting Ponyville we didn't just see meteors, we saw aliens of a new species. They came out of these giant bird-like things that can fly and they carried these black boxes and sticks with them." "Did you say aliens sister?", Celestia asked. "Yes sis. I saw what they looked like, they walk on two legs and they looked different upon each other. Some where wearing some kind of armor that was a grayish color. And the one that I'm most curious of is that there was one that was wearing a metal like outfit that was black and white, he had some symbol on his arm and along with that I saw a blue figure come out of his hoof like if it was magic or something like that. I've never seen anything like it. Then the next thing they had two of those bird-like things that they had to the meteor crash site and the others took off and I think the figure in the metal outfit saw us on the hill that we were spying on them. But luckily we weren't caught by them." "If there are aliens here then this means that they might be friendly.", Celesta said. "IF they are that is. For now I'll be more con earn about the aliens and Ponyville's damage. Check on the meteor's crash site and see if any pony got hurt or not. I've made the crash site off-limits but only you ponies can be at the meteor." "Understood sister, we'll leave immediately." "Alright Luna, just try not to get hurt." "I hear you sis." Luna then faster a teleportation spell and they disappeared into thin air. The next thing they knew was that they were at the meteor's crash site. Princess Luna: Meteor's crash site; 9:40 hours, 10 minutes before Alpha Nine's search Princess Luna and the others were teleported to the meteor and they were facing right in front of it. They were shocked at the size of it and wondered if it is a meteor or not since it was made of metal. They also saw a title on it labeled: U.N.S.C. Euclid's Anvil. "Princess, what does that title mean?", Twilight said. "And I think this is no meteor, it's probably something else." "Should we look inside princess cause I ain't sure if we should we leave this thing here.", Applejack said. "Alright let's go inside this object and then let's return to the castle." The group went inside the ship and went on a tour. They saw broken plates of metal and lots of more damage to the ship. "I agree with you earlier Twilight.", Luna said. "This is definetly NOT a meteor." "What's with all of this fancy stuff all around?", Rainbowdash added. "I can't believe this!", Spike replied. "Is this like from the future or something? Because this looks like from one of those things in those sci-fi pony comic books that I read." "What's with the marking on the wall like: Engine Room or something like that?" Rarity said. "This place lacks color. It looks rather dull." "Hey guys look ahead at that!", Pinkie explained. "What's that?" Up ahead of them layed a marine helmet. It was left on the ground with a giant dent on it's top with a giant scratch on the right side of it and a body layed on its back unmoving. "What is that can I look?!", Lyra pointed out. "Let me look first.", Princess Luna replied back." They looked at the body and the helmet and started a chat but before they could get a good look Fluttershy interrupted the whole group. "Somepony's coming hide!", Fluttershy whispered. Then Princess Luna casted an invisibility spell and hid behind some crates. They saw four figures and they were chatting to each other. "Ah that's nothing Dutch. You might be seeing thing's.", Romeo said. "Yeah I've haven't been getting that much sleep lately.", Dutch replied. "Alpha Nine this is Bridge we just lost contact with ODST Group Delta Five. They went on a recon mission and they STILL haven't radioed back. Over." "Copy that Bridge, this is Dutch. Either their communications are messed up when we dropped or their outside of your communication's range. Over." "Give me a status report Dutch." "The Euclid's Anvil is in a shitty condition. The engines are dead but the reactor is still intact and we haven't seen any sirvivors yet. Deck 18 lost power and we're on our way to the bridge. Over." "Copy that Alpha Nine keep searching the ship. If you find the Captain Allen bring him back to a Pelican ASAP. Copy?" "Affirmative sir. We are now se-. What do we have here?" "You found something Dutch?" "Yeah, I found a marine here from the impact. I have his dog tags his name is: Corpral Aiden Jackson. His status is KIA." "Bummer. Wait, can you retrieve the video chip from his helmet?" "Yes I have it right now. Should I play the video sir?" "Affirmative send me the video." "Yes sir, playing it now." Dutch then played a projector from his helmet and the whole group and Bridge saw the video. And secretly Luna and the others saw it to. Corporal J. Jackson: UNSC Euclid's Anvil; 2 minutes before crash landing "Captain we should leave now.", Jackson said. "Negative Corporal, you should leave. In my book the captain goes down with his ship.", Captain Allen replied. "But sir-" "That's an order son. Now get going" "Aye sir!" Later on deck 19 "Corporal Jackson are you there?" "Yes Sargent Smith I'm here I'm heading towards an escape pod. The ship is almost crashing we sho-." Then there was a giant shaking in the ship and then a giant numb occurred which made Jackson hitting the ceiling of the hallway and then hitting the right side of his head. The next thing he knew was his vision turned pitch black. "Corporal.... Corporal are you there!?", Sargent Smith said. But there was no answer. Euclid's Anvil: Corporal Jackson's helmet video feed; 9:55 "What is that?", Pinkie pie said. "Hey isn't that Pinkie pie?", Twilight whispered. The video went on and some more talking occurred until the yellow creature whispered: "Somepony's coming hide!" Then Alpha Nine saw the group turn invisible and saw themselves in the video on the deck with no power. "What do we have here?", A black figure with orange said as he came up to the helmet's camera. "Sir did you see that?", Dutch said. "Yeah what was that?", Bridge said. "We're those horses or something? Because if they are the-. Oh god....." "What is it sir?" "They might steal the Captain get to the bridge now!", Bridge yelled. "Hurry your close to it!" "Affirmative we're moving!", Dutch said. The four ODST's then ran through the broken ship and headed to the bridge. "We should follow them.", Luna whispered. "We should keep watching them but stay quiet!" They followed the ODST's throughout the ship and they were amused at how they ran and how they mantled over debris while not getting injured. They finally caught up with them and they stopped at a doorway labeled: Bridge. The group hid behind a pile of boxes and saw the four figures go into the bridge of the ship. "Sir, we've made it to the bridge. We've got the Captain he's alive but injured along with two other officers and we also retrieved all remaining contacts, files, and data about the UNSC and Earth. Over", Dutch said. "Copy that. I'm sending a Pelican for an evac, ETA: five minutes.", Bridge said. "Alright sir. Copy that." The group of ODST's helped the captain and the two officers and waited for their evac. But Eookie thought he saw something behind a pile of boxes. The group of ponies were scared but they were lucky with their invisibility spell. Rookie didn't see anything and returned to his post. Alpha Nine's pelican arrived outside of the ship and they had three survivors: Captain Allen and two officers from the Bridge. "You guys alright?", The pilot said. "Yeah, take us to camp we're done. Mission accomplished everyone!", Dutch said. The Pelican took off and left the ship and the ponies in the dust. "That was an interesting encounter.", Luna said. "We must report to my sister now." Luna then casted a teleportation spell and they appeared in the throne room. Alpha Nine: Base camp; 10:05 AM Alpha Nine's Pelican landed at the main camp which had Bridge and the rest of the ship's survivors. The ramp in the back of the pelican dropped and the ODST's saw the Spartan in black armor waiting for them outside. "Glad you guys made it.", Bridge said. "Is the captain here?" "Yes sir", Mickey replied whe he brought the captain to a medic. Captain Allen then woke up and he saw five figures in front of him. "Bridge is that you?", The Captain asked. "Yes sir.", Bridge replied. "We have lost contact with ODST Group Delta Five and we have most of the survivors. Alpha Nine saved your ass along with two more officers onboard the ship." Then Bridge and Captain Allen started a long conversation. "Well that's good to hear, and where are we?", Captain Allen asked again. "We've established a small camp here which we're going to make as a base soon.", Bridge said. "Sargent Smith is rallying troops to unload vehicles and supplies from the Pelicans." "Are there any locals on this planet?" "Maybe as I can tell but we've might seen some on the ship in a video feed." "Interesting.", Hannah said. "I've calculated the weather on this planet and it's not natural. It's like if someone can control it or something." "That's weird Hannah.", Bridge said. "For now let's stay here and figure a way to react with locals if we come across them." "I agree Bridge.", Captain Allen replied. "You got any idea's Bridge?" "Affirmative.", Bridge said. "It's- "Bridge, Captain this is Delta Five...", A voice came from the radio said. "This is Bridge go ahead." "WE GOT CONTACTS! LOTS OF THEM, BUT THEY'RE NOT COVENANT, FLOOD, FORERUNNER, OR PROMETHEAN'S. WHAT THE-. FALL BACK! AAAAAGGGH!!!" "Delta Five! Delta Five come in over!?", Bridge asked.
Part 5: Hostiles inbound!Base camp: Spartan 091, Bridge; 10:15 hours "Delta Five! Delta Five come in over?!", Bridge asked on the radio. "Sir we have the video footage!", Sergeant Smith said. Smith then showed the video to Bridge from a small video pad. The video showed these black bug-like creatures who were flying. But what made Bridge wonder was that these creatures were weak and he saw some bigger one with them who was some horse creature to his eyes. "Sergeant ready the troops, we're going to save those boys of our's.", Bridge commanded. "Yes sir.", Smith replied. "Alright everyone move it!" "Bridge it's wise to leave Hannah here at camp.", Captain Allen said. "If there's an enemy that we don't know protocol says we can't let a UNSC A.I. fall into unknown hands." "Affirmative sir.", Bridge replied. Bridge then handed his A.I. into a small terminal alongside the captain with some radios and computers. "I'll still be able to contact you from here Bridge.", Hannah said. "Don't worry I'll be alright here." "Bridge, you may bring whatever ordinance or weapons you need.", Captain Allen said. "Also bring Alpha Nine." "Affirmative sir.", Bridge replied back. He then gave the captain a salute and headed towards the weapons stache. He picked two magnums, a DMR, a SAW, and a sniper rifle. Bridge and Smith quickly gathered their forces and then headed out. Later in some forest: 10:40 Hours Bridge and Smith were in a strike force hat they had made of 8 warthogs and 4 mongooses and they were heading towards Delta Five's position. Bridge was driving the first warthog and something was giving him a chill down his spine. But he ignored it. According to UNSC and ONI records, and Hannah he's not afraid of anything, he IS fear. Mostly because he is known as 'The Shadow of Death'. Even the Elites of the Covenant fear him. "Bridge your near Delta Five, keep driving forward.", Hannah said on the radio. "Copy that Hannah. How much longer?", Bridge asked. "There they're in front of you!", Hannah replied. Delta Five was struggling to hold their ground. There were these black creatures that were attacking them but Delta Five had only some rocks for cover against their attacks. They had two wounded men and the other four ODST's were providing cover fire for their injured teammates. But they were lucky when a bunch of vehicles came through the tree line. They stopped and they opened fire on the enemy in front of them with everything that they had. Bridge immediately stepped out of the warthog that he drove and immediately took cover where the ODST Lieutenant Lee was. "Bridge, we're glad that your here!", Lee said as a black bolt almost hit his visor. "We got your distress call. We're here to save you guys.", Bridge said as he unleashed a spray of bullets from his SAW. "We got Private Mason and Private First Class Travis both injured and we killed countless amounts of these creatures. They attacked us first and we then gave them a fierce counter-attack." "Copy that Lieutenant. Everyone give them a warm welcome!" "LET'S KILL THEM ALL YE-HAW!", Mickey screamed. Mickey, Smith, and Rookie were in a warthog doing a drive-by at the enemies. As they approached Smith pulled the trigger to the turret and she let out a barrage of bullets which made dozens of enemies fall to their deaths. After that Rookie drove over a rock which made their warthog drive on two wheels. After they got their balance back Mickey stepped out of the vehicle. "Are you going to get back in or not?", Smith asked. "Not with Rookie driving!", Mickey replied. The black creatures kept on coming and more marines were falling from their attack's. Bridge decided that he called in some 'friends'. "Hannah this is Bridge. We need reinforcements now!" "Roger that Bridge. We're sending reinforcements from Pelican dropships. ETA: Five minutes, hang tight over.", Hannah said. While the crew of ODST's, marines, and the one Spartan were waiting for their reinforcements they somehow managed to fend off hundreds of these creatures. It seemed to an infinite amount of these creatures. Bridge then pulled the trigger on his sniper rifle and the bullet went through about three or four of the creatures along with some creature on four legs that was black like them. He realized that it was his last round for his sniper so he then went to his DMR and made tons of headshots. These creatures were easy pray but they didn't stop. "Bridge this is Pelican Bravo 649, we are your reinforcements but we need you to clear an LZ." "Copy that 'Eagle'. We're making an LZ now. All troops with rocket launchers fire in the middle of the incoming enemy group!", Bridge commanded. After he gave the order several troops and Mickey lined up behind the rocks with their rocket launchers that they aimed at the creatures. The creatures didn't know what was coming their way. "FIRE!", Bridge yelled. Countless amounts of rockets flew from their position and handful of explosions happened which killed about hundreds of enemies. Body parts flew everywhere, broken limbs, legs, arms, and heads layer on the battlefield from the explosions. And blue blood spilled everywhere. "That's what I like to see!", Mickey screamed. " 'Eagle' the LZ is cleared! Unload your troops and hang back for a while.", Bridge said. "Affirmative sir!", Eagle replied. Six Pelicans unloaded their troops and also unloaded some heavy firepower. They had two scorpion tanks, two guass warthogs, one rocket warthog, and a mantis. They all opened fire and they blew all of the creatures to bits. The creature's attacks did nothing to the vehicles and instead of hitting them their attacks bounced off of the vehicles like it was nothing. "Keep it up everyone they're weak!", Bridge yelled. "Bridge this is Pegasus, Hannah told us that we're here to deliver some 'presents' for these guys. You guys might want to stay where you are right now. It's about to get messy." "Copy that Pegasus!", Bridge replied. A few seconds later Bridge saw some Broadsword and Longsword aircraft releasing their payloads. He saw bullets, bombs, and missiles go flying towards the creatures and it responded in more body parts on the ground and also made some trees catch on fire. "Direct hit Pegasus!", Bridge said to the pilot. "Copy that. Heading back to base over.", Pegasus said "Sir they're retreating!", Dutch said. "Nice job everyone. I don't think they'll mess with us again!", Bridge said. The marines and ODST's all led out a victory cheer after Bridge's statement. Even Rookie was doing it but he didn't say anything. They were all proud of themselves once again. Spartan Alpha 91: Bridge; 10 minutes after the ambush at Delta Five's position. "Well sir we've fucked them up real bad!", Smith said. "I like to hear that Sergeant! How many of those things did we kill?", Bridge asked. "It's-" Before Sergeant Smith could begin her sentence they heard Dutch say something. "Hey you two have a visitor!", Dutch said. "Who is it?", Bridge asked. "See for yourself sir. She's over there.", Dutch replied. Bridge then headed towards their visitor with Sergeant Smith and everyone from Aplha Nine. They saw a white horse-like creature with guards. "Hello I'm Princess Celesita of Equestria and who are all of you?", She said in a calm and smoothe tone.
Part 6: Back at homeEarth: Orbital Defense Platform Cairo Station: 4 hours and 50 minutes since contact with Princess Celestia Fleet Admiral Lord Terrance Hood was looking out at humanity's prized planet, Earth. The planet that mankind first named home since the Stone Age and then reached for the stars in the 1900's during the Cold-War which involved the United States of America vs. the Soviet Union. If it wasn't for the Americans and their space program NASA, then mankind wouldn't be far out in space. He was starting to wonder if he should have went with Captain Allen to see this planet, but no. He has priorities at Earth and he has the major responsibility of commanding the entire UNSC Navy from Earth to other far away planets. He was the best Fleet Admiral that the UNSC has right now. He then went on to the bridge and saw UNSC Navy personal doing their duties and other various activities. A fireteam of the marines aboard the station were playing slapjack with ODST squadron Omega 7. And some of the personal and soldiers were at the snack bar onboard the bridge and he saw ODST Sergeant Dobbin getting his daily coffee. "Ugh!", the Sergeant groaned as he pulled the top of the coffee maker. "Guess I'm the only person on this defense platform who KNOWS to change a coffee filter. Thanks guys!" "Hey Sergeant!", Lord Hood said in a positive tone. "How's your new squad going out for you? I heard that the last squad that you were in was a pain in the ass." "What sir? Oh yeah THAT squadron. They were a bunch of dicks anyways except for that one girl Veronica who is in my squad now." "I hear you sarge. I had troubles like that before when I was your age." "How's the Euclid's Anvil's mission? Have they reported back sir?" "Thanks for reminding me about that. I forgot to check in with them. I'll see you later sarge, you can go back to your thing right now." "Affirmative sir." Lord Hood then went to the personal at the computers who were working as hard as a college student taking their final exam before summer vacation. "How's the Euclid's Anvil's mission going everyone?", Lord Hood asked the crew aboard the bridge. "We haven't heard back from them in like five hours sir!", said one of the officers. "What do you mean?! They should've reported back by now!" "That's not all sir.", a female voice said from one of the Navy personal at the computers. "We haven't heard from the Captain or the crew at all!" "Thank you Officer Miller.", Lord Hood said. "They are nowhere even near the planet on our moniters Lord Hood.", a male voice said from the Bridge. "Has there been a mutiny on that ship or have they all gone rouge?" "It's not likely son. No crew in the UNSC Navy would throw a mutiny on that ship for just a exploration mission. And it is very unlikely for everyone to go rouge against the UNSC they're all good men and women that I know. Their comms must be messed up since they're out in neutral space. However I'm not making chances. Keep an eye on that and see if you can get a signal to them. It could be a Covenant Remnant trap or worse. Let's keep our jets cool and figure this out in the meantime." Earth: Office of Naval Intelligence HQ: 5 hours since contact with Princess Celestia "You know you never tell me much about him. How he acts, what he knows, or anything else. You really ARE someone of secrets. Me and the rest of ONI know your secrets and actions before and after the human-Covenant war. I am NOT an ONI agent instead I am slightly a friend of them and a historian. I want to know more about him because I'm curious about this Spartan. Besides every Spartan is one-of-a-kind in the UNSC. Can you please tell me more about him Dr. Halsey?", the man asked. "I already told you about him. John is the best Spartan that me and everyone else knows.", Dr. Halsey said. "Some people say that he is almost a god against the Covenant. He's the reason WHY humanity isn't wiped out from this war with the Covenant. My work saved the human race! If it wasn't me or Mendez we wouldn't be here right now alive." "I ALREADY know about Sierra 117 Dr. Halsey, I'm asking about someone else." "Then who is it then?" "Have you heard of Captain Allen of the Autumn-Class Cruiser the UNSC Euclid's Anvil?" "Yes, why?" "Did you know we found a new star system, Captain Allen and the crew of his ship went on an exploration mission." "No I haven't." "There's someone special on that ship that you know." "That ship has an elite crew I'm sure they'll survive." "No. We haven't heard from them in five hours." "I'm sure that their comms are messed up since they're in neutral space. Captain Allen is known for his naval actions and is a communications expert." "UNSC Spartan Alpha 91 was on that ship with UNSC A.I. Hannah and Captain Allen." "Wait?! He's still alive?!" "Yes doctor." "How come no one has told me of this?" "We haven't heard from the ship or seen the ship on our scanners. We might think that they're KIA. But their profiles say that they're MIA." "Well what do we do and why am I involved in this?" "ONI has a generous offer for your help doctor. If you help ONI with this they'll get rid of some of your 'horrible' war crimes from the public view." "Sounds fair enough, I'll help." "Alright. We also have an agent that can help us." "Who is it?" "Here he is. Doctor Halsey meet ONI Agent Locke." "A pleasure to meet you doctor.", said Spartan Locke. Orbital Defense Station Cario: 6 Hours since contact with Princess Celestia "Have any of you got new reports of the Euclid's Anvil Officer Miller?", Lord Hood asked on the bridge. "Negative sir.", Miller said. "Nothing, it's just dead space out there." "Do we know if there has been any Covenant activity there Miller?" "No, but we got a message." "Lord Hood.", Locke said behind Lord Hood. "Spartan Locke it's a pleasure for you to be here.", Hood said to the Spartan. "What's an agent from ONI like you being here on this station?" "The UNSC High Command and the office have ordered me to help you with this problem that you're having." "Affirmative. Miller can you play the message?" "Affirmative. It's from THE Arbiter!", Miller said. "The Arbiter? What does he want?", Hood replied. A big screen came on and it showed the Arbiter in his golden armor. "Hello humans.", said the Arbiter in a peaceful tone. "I heard about your problem with one of your ships. I believe it's called the Euclid's Anvil if I'm correct? If so then I have some news for you. Since I'm busy fighting against the Covenant Remnant I got some valuable information with me. You see the planet that you sent your ship to explore is uninhabited and there are some rumors of it having six forerunner artifacts on the planet. They are in some form of necklaces from what I can tell from the Covenant battle net. If you need my help I'll be gladly to assist you. Arbiter out." "I guess that he is willing to help us.", Lord Uood said. "Continue to find anything from the ship Miller. Me and Locke will speak with the Arbiter."
Part 7: Back to the present & negotiations Part 7: Back to the present & negotiations Spartan Alpha 91, present time. 11:10 hours "Well I should say who are YOU?", Bridge said to the White House horse. "I am Princess Celestia, the ruler of Equestria.", The white horse said. "But my question is who are all of you?" She realized the Spartan was about two inches taller than her and she starred into his dark visor. "Well that's my question to. You are a horse if I'm correct?" "Actually our race are ponies. What is your race?" "We're all humans. We started as ancient civilizations and now we've expanded beyond planets and stars." "Wow I'm amazed! So your saying your not from Equis?" "Equis?" "It's the name of our planet. What is yours?" "That's classified." "Classified?" "Classified means it's important information that I can't tell you under certain protocols. Until we can trust you me and Captain Allen will make up our minds. But first, are you related to the Covenant or have you heard of them?" "Uh, no I haven't heard of this 'Covenant'. Who are they?" "They're a race of different alien species but grouped under a religious banner. They will not stop until their goals are complete. They won't stop at anything ma'am, they would destroy anything in their path towards their objectives. You shouldn't trust them at all." "That's very frightening. Have you met them?" "Yes, but then they started a civil war to wipe out humanity and her colonies under the prophets of the Covenant. Billions of lives have been lost to defend our species. We though that we would lose the war, but we had the Spartans like me. We WERE humanity's saviors and super soldiers throughout the entire war." "Spartans? Can you tell me more about them?" "That's classified but all I can tell you is that we were the best soldiers that humanity had. Always remember: 'Spartans don't die, they're just missing in action.' " "That sounds very amazing towards all of the Spartans." "Not all of us made it." "Excuse me?" "Most of the Spartans either sacrificed themselves or died to defend humanity. And my siblings were Spartans along side me. But they didn't make it from Reach." "Reach?" "A planet that we lost that was very important. Reach was destroyed. The immense of the entire planet, there's nothing left of it." "I feel sorry for the lives who were lost." "Me too, especially my sister and my brother." "Can you tell me more?" Bridge then had a horrible flashback and he heard voices. "We might not defend Reach." "Then we'll die trying Makena!" "Watch out sir!" "MAKENA!" "NO!", The Spartan yelled at Celestia. "Why, is there something wrong?", Princess Celestia asked. "I don't want to talk about it and that's personal.", Bridge said in an angry tone. "Why can't you tell anything classified?" "They taught us how to be silent, then they taught us how to be Spartans." "Who now?" "That's classified." "I hope that we can arrange peace negotiations." "I hope so to Princess Celestia." "I guess we're making history now with ponies and humans." "Yep, that seems so." "How did you end up here on this planet?" "We have our ship over there which we crashed, but we made it out of there just in time before it went down. Her name is the Euclid's Anvil." "I see. Do you have a leader?" "Well we have Captain Allen of the Euclid's Anvil and me as the main leaders for the ship's crew." "Can we see him?" "I'll have to ask him. Sergeant Smith, can you send a message to the captain saying that we have a leader who would like to talk to him?" "Understood sir!", Sergeant Smith said as she gave a salute and talked to the communications officer. "Can my sister come to along with some other ponies?", Celestia asked. "Sure, only if they don't touch anything of ours we should be fine.", Bridge replied back. "My sister is the co-ruler of this nation and she would like to see you." "Alright I'm down with that." "I'm here with the girls sister", Luna said as she approached. "Here is my sister Princess Luna. Luna say hi to him.", Celestia said. "It's you!", Luna yelled. "Uh sorry, have we met before?", Bridge asked. "I've seen you in my dreams and I have seen you in Ponyville with that blue thing of yours.", Luna said. "Blue thing?", The Spartan asked. "Oh yeah! Hannah come say hello." As the Spartan took his A.I. out of the back of his helmet she appeared as her blue avatar in front of the ponies. (In case of you didn't know: Hannah has long hair and she has a different face and body than Cortana in case if you guys were wondering on how she looks like.) "Hello Princesses, I'm Hannah.", The A.I. said as she put her hair back behind her head like the way that it was. All of the ponies were in shock while starting at the A.I. But Celestia and Twilight had curious and puzzled looks. "So she is something that you can put in your head?", Twilight asked. "Well no not exactly in my head, but in my helmet. She's an artificial intelligence of the UNSC and we're all partners together.", Bridge said. "So does she can be with you at anytime?", The white unicorn asked. "Yes. That's not what all my armor can do." "So whatever. It's not like you can survive falls from space or something like that.", The rainbow colored pony said. "Actually I can.", The Spartan said. "Oh really?!", Rainbowdash said. "I'm a Spartan ma'am, I'm one of the best soldiers that humanity has on the front lines. And in case if you didn't know we fought a war that lasted about 30 years. It was a very painful experience for me personally." "What a bunch of junk anyways! That seems lame." Those words infuriated the Spartan with anger and hatred. "What did you just say?! We have lost over 20 billion lives and we lost multiple planets that we've colonized!" "So what?! Show me that you have proof!" "Alright then. Hannah?", Bridge asked. "Affirmative. Playing the clip now.", The A.I. replied back as a video clip played from Bridge's helmet and then the video played. Bridge was on the screen when it came on and he was in a Pelican dropship while he was being debriefed for his mission by Captain Laskey. "Spartan Alpha 91, over the past week our ships have been fighting Covenant ships trying to attack our colonies. The shipmaster is on the surface and his ship is left unattended but he is commanding his ships from the surface. Your objective is to kill him ASAP and kill any other Covenant soldiers, then a Pelican dropship will meet with you for extraction.", The captain said. "Understood Captain Laskey.", Bridge said. "Good luck Spartan Bridge, Infinity out!", Laskey finished. "Are you sure your going to do this?", Hannah asked inside Bridge's helmet while he was grabbing his gear. "Affirmative Hannah. I'm going in.", Bridge replied. As the door opened he and had an Assault Rifle, DMR, Shotgun, and two Magnums with him as he jumped out of the Pelican from the atmosphere. He glided through the air with his built in thrusters in his armor which helped him from dying. Below him UNSC Autumn class cruisers and UNSC Broadsword and Longsword aircraft were attacking Covenant Remnant ships. He was near the ground and he used his thrusters to slow him down from surface of the planets soil. He then engaged Covenant troops and vehicles as he pulled out his Assault Rifle while doing a barrel roll towards his enemies. He shot multiple Grunts, Jackals, and Elites and used his built in jet pack to slow his descent. He shot a grunt inside the incoming Phantom and he climbed a Jackal's shield as he threw a frat grenade in the cockpit and he jumped out as the explosion happened behind him. Next he switched his weapons from his Assault Rifle to his Shotgun and shot multiple Elites in the face and he engaged his target. He faced the Shipmaster as the Elite tried to hit him with his energy sword but the Spartan was to fast for him and Bridge went behind him, knocked him down, and stabbed his knife through the Elite's head. After that UNSC Longswords flew over him and they targeted the Covenant super carrier with their payloads and Autumn Class cruisers firing their MAC cannons at the Covenant ship. Then the video ended with a Pelican picking up Bridge. "Well what do you think about Spartans now?", Bridge asked all the ponies. "Was that actually you?!", Twilight asked the Spartan "Yes that was me.", Bridge replied. "That was awesome!", Rainbowdash yelled in exitement. "Can you tell us who you are exactly? I didn't get your name.", Celestia asked. "It's Spartan Alpha 91, but you can call me Bridge. COMMANDER Bridge.", The Spartan replied.
Part 8: New AlliesUNSC Base Camp; 11:30 hours "Lieutenant Lee this is 'Eagle', we have commander Bridge, Alpha Nine, Fireteam Aqua, and the ruler of this land over." "Copy that 'Eagle' and sorry for the cramped space here, the boys are real busy here.", The OSDT said. He then put his red and black ODST helmet on which had a flashlight equipped and grabbed his dual SMG's and his battle rifle from the crate that he was next to and came to the Corporal in his squad.. "Corporal Han, tell Captain Allen that they're home." "Aye sir!", The Corporal said. Spartan Alpha 91: Pelican Dropship Commander Bridge was sitting at the end of the pelican and looked out of the ramp doorway. He mostly saw green and mountains across the land. The ponies, Alpha Nine, and Fireteam Aqua were inside of the ship and they were asking questions to Dutch, Romeo, and Mickey while the Rookie was taking a nap. "We heard from our scouts that there was going to be a changeling army attacking all of Equestria. Instead we went to check out those loud noises and we found all of you attacking the changeling army.", Luna said. "We're there any casualties for you? Because I'm just curious about this event." "Let's just say we had none of our soldiers dead.", Dutch replied. "And we estimated that we have about 67 wounded but they'll live. They have a few burns that our medics can take care of. There were about 600 dead changelings" "Six hundred?!", Twilight pointed out. "How can there be six hundred dead changelings when you have only 67 wounded?" "Because we are super advanced in technology miss.", Bridge replied. "We are not just advanced in technology, we are also masters of warfare." "Interesting, but what are you like the military or something?", Celestia asked. "We are from the UNSC which stands for: United Nations Space Command.", Bridge said. "It's our military which houses several branches such as: Marine Corps, Army, Special Forces, Navy, Defense Force, Air Force, and the Office of Naval Intelligence.", Bridge said. "That's cool. What are you suppose to be mister?", Rainbowdash said. "I'm a Spartan, which is a super soldier. We are the best of the best besides the ODST's like Alpha Nine over here. ODST's are: Orbital Drop Shock Troopers.", Bridge replied. "Can you tell us more?", Luna asked. "Everyone we're landing.", Eagle said to the group in the back. The pelican drops hip landed next to a pelican gunship and two scorpion tanks which engineers were making repairs on after the battle. Captain Allen was walking towards the pelican with ODST Captain Dare a squad of marines with him as an escort. When they arrived he saw Alpha Nine, Commander Bridge, a squad of marines, and the group of horses with them. "Hello I'm guessing your Captain Allen if I'm right?", Celestia asked. "Yes I'm Captain Allen who are you?", The Captain asked. "I'm Princess Celestia, the ruler of Equestria with my sister, Princess Luna.", Celestia said as she looked at the Captain who had blue eyes, black hair, and his white navy uniform which had several ribbons and medals on it. "I'm sure you two already met Commander Bridge, Fireteam Aqua, and Alpha Nine.", Captain Allen said. "Wait, who's the commander around here?", Applejack asked. "I am.", The Spartan said in a low tone as she looked in to his white visor. "We are already agreeing on peace negotiations with humans.", Celestia said. "Well I'm surprised.", Dare said. "Alpha Nine get some rest you deserve it." Alpha Nine walked away and then Bridge, Hannah, Dare, Captain Allen, Princess Luna, and Princess Celestia talked about peace negotiations. "I'm glad that you will be allies of us soon and do you know how to go back home?", Celestia asked. "Did Bridge tell you how we got here?", Captain Allen asked. "Yes he told he how you got here in your ship and how the asteroid damaged your ship. Queen Chrysailis sent the asteroid at you." "Queen Chrysailis?" "She's the Changeling queen and you already destroyed their army from destroying our cities and stealing our love." "Well that's a good thing that we did for you. I guess you owe us a favor." "We do. Since we're now allies what will you do now?" "Well since the Euclid's Anvil's shields are destroyed, the Titanium-A3 armor plating is critically damaged, our primary and secondary engines are destroyed, the Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine, the triple fusion reactor and most on board systems are destroyed or damaged so we can't fly in our ship. I guess we're staying here for a while." "For how long?" "Who know's, it might take days, months, or years. From what I can tell we're going to-." "I just got a brilliant idea!", Bridge interrupted. "What is it son?", Captain Allen asked. "I got reports from Lieutenant Lee that reported that there's a large amount of metal in these mountains. Iron, Steel, you name it. I was thinking if we should build a base here in the mountain.", Bridge replied. "It's true. I'm detecting that there's a large portion of iron next to our base about 2 miles from here.", Hannah said over Bridge's helmet's speakers. "I agree Captain, that's a good idea since we're staying here for a while. I'm sure the boys want a roof over their heads rather than nothing or just tents forever.", Dare said. "Princess is it okay if we build a base here for the time being?", Captain Allen asked the white alicorn. "Why sure you can. Feel free to, besides our relations as allies is growing very stronger. We're glad to have you here.", Princess Celestial said. "Sir I'll have some teams ready to go where the iron deposit is.", Bridge said. "I will to.", Dare said. "Alright, bring some warthogs with you just in case.", Captain Allen said. "Affirmative!", Both Bridge and Dare replied back to the Captain. "Wait until you meet Fleet Admiral Lord Hood ma'am. He's the de facto leader of the UNSC and he leads our navy. But that's a while until we reach contact.", Captain Allen said. "So what is your world name?", Celestia asked. "Her name is Earth." "So what's it like?" "We hand a moon that we call Luna. Our planet orbits around our sun with seven other celestial bodies named: Mercurey, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. There's another planet called Pluto , but it's a dwarf planet. Earth is our race's home world." "So your sun and moon aren't controlled?" "No, our planet orbits around the sun and our moon orbits around Earth." "I see. It's quite interesting that you call your moon Luna. That's my sister's name." "Well what a coincidence!" "I will tell the nation about your arrival. Do you feel okay about this?" "Yes, I will attend with Dare, Alpha Nine, Hannah, and Commander Bridge. We'll leave when you're ready with us." "Splendid, then I'll see if-." There was a loud crash on the other side of the camp that everyone heard from the mantis's. "SPENCER! What are you doing over there!? You better not have dropped that generator again, that thing is very expensive!", Bridge shouted as he walked over there with Dare. "Sorry about that.", Captain Allen said. "Alright when do you want to have the nation know of your presence?",'Celestia asked "Tomorrow, and please make sure that your guards don't react when they see us tomorrow." "Don't worry I will."
Part 9: Alpha Base Part 9: Alpha Base UNSC Spartan Alpha 91: 12:25 hours "Bridge, me and Fireteam Aqua are going to meet the princesses and negotiate peace terms for a while. Are you sure you can handle things around here for a while?", Captain Allen asked while he boarded a pelican dropship with Fireteam Aqua inside. "Affirmative.", Bridge said. "Alright. I'm leaving the construction up to you, Dare, Hannah, and Lieutenant Lee while we're gone.", The captain responded while adjusting the collar of his navy uniform. "Good luck sir." "You too Spartan." The pelican dropship ascended above the ground with it's engines roaring and took off to Canterlot. Bridge then made his way to Lieutenant Lee and Dare while the two were talking with Alpha Nine. "Alright, let's get started people.", Bridge said. "I'm ready sir.", Lieutenant Lee responded. "Me too sir.", Dare replied. "Okay then. Hannah we need to start the construction of Alpha Base ASAP.",Bridge said. "Affirmative Bridge, where should we start?", His A.I. responded. UNSC Captain Andrew R. Allen: 12:50 hours "Why do we always have to be the escort Sarge?", PFC Millard asked the Sargent. "Listen here son, we are good at escort and we'll be doing it at all times with the Captain. That's an order!", Sergeant Smith replied. "You said it Miranda!", Sergeant Philips said. "Hey if we go back to Earth, how about we go have a drink together?", Smith asked her boyfriend who was next to her. "Alright I'm in.", Philips responded. "Everyone were approaching our destination!", Eagle said to the group in the back. "You heard him men! Be ready just in case!", Sergeant Smith said as she loaded a fresh clip into her battle rifle. Canterlot Castle "They should be here in few minutes sister.", Celestial said. "Yes Tia. Are you sure that the guards won't panic and attack?", Luna asked. "I'm sure I told Captain Armor to have his guards to be calm and to not panic. Captain Allen is a reasonable human. And he agreed to negotiate peace with us." "I'm sure that he'll be arriving with his escort?" "Yes, but his soldiers with him are called the marines." "I see." "Do you think that the changeling threat is done forever?" "Maybe. If it wasn't for the humans then our most important cities would be demolished forever." "I'm sure Chrysailis won't mess with them again." "Tia they're here." They saw the pelican dropship descend its landing gear and they saw Captain Allen in his uniform with Fireteam Aqua who exited out of the pelican's rear hatch. Some of the guards were paralyzed at the pelican and the figures who came out who wearing green and slightly brown outfits except for one who wore white. "Hello princess it's good to see you again!", Captai. Allen said in a cheerful tone. "Yes it's good to see you too!", Celestial said as Captain Allen shook his hand with Celestia's hoof. "Shall we proceed?", The captain asked. "Sure right this way.", Celestia replied. "Uh captain, can me and the elements are going to see the rest of the humans? We would like to see them.", Luna asked. "Sure, with commander Bridge's permission he'll let you see him and the rest of them.", Captain Allen replied. "I guess he's alright with it sister.", Celestia said. "I'll see you later sister.", Luna said. UNSC Spartan Alpha 91 16:35 hours The entire crew of the 'Euclid's Anvil' we're working hard on the base construction. There were workers, pieces of machinery, flat bed warthogs, and tools everywhere. Bridge was checking up on the base construction until he saw a blue burst in front of him. "Hello Commander.", Luna said. "Hello Princess Luna. Is there something that I can help you with?", Bridge asked. "Is it alright to you if we can visit while my sister and Captain Allen are negotiating?" "Alright fine if you don't touch ANYTHING of our's or distract our men I'll be fine with you here." "Thank you, and Commander?" "Yes?" "We noticed that you are bigger than everypony here. Why is that?" "It's everyone not everypony to us. And I mentioned that I'm a Spartan, I'm no ordinary soldier. I'm a generically enhanced super soldier that is the best of the best in our military. I'm a professional soldier." "Why did you decide to become what you are now?" "I wasn't. I was kidnapped." "How old?" "I was six years old." "Why would you be kidnapped at six?!", Twilight asked. "We were chosen to serve. I became a Spartan II with the rest of the cadets on Reach. We went under augmentation procedures which made us bigger, stronger, faster, better immune system, smarter, faster healing, and more dangerous to our opponents. I was one of the best.", Bridge said. "What about the others?", Luna asked. "Some either became crippled, permanently paralyzed, or dead.", Bridge stated. "I'm sorry if I shouldn't asked that question." "It's fine. I'm okay with it." "Do you have manners to a girl?", Rarity asked. "Yes I do.", Bridge said. "Have you thought of removing that helmet of yours?", Luna asked. "I only remove it in front of the people that I can trust, higher officials, and my A.I.", Bridge said. "Hey big sis, we came to see the aliens!", A female voice said. Bridge reacted and grabbed his Assault Rifle from where he was sitting and be aimed at three small creatures. "State your business!", Bridge yelled as he pointed his weapon at the small horses heads. "Sorry, we came with to see our sisters if they're okay.", The orange one said. "Darling why are you here? We told you to stay home!", Rarity said. "Sorry sis. We wanted to come with you.", The white one said. Bridge lowered his weapon and talked to the small horses. "What are your names young ones?", Bridge asked. "I'm Scootalo and this is Apple Bloom and Sweetie Bell.", The orange pony said. "What's your's?" "Hi I'm Commander Bridge, but you can just call me Bridge for short.", The Spartan replied. "What's that kind of armor you're wearing?", Sweetie Bell asked. "It's MJOLNIR powered assault armor for Spartans.", Bridge said. "So what? I bet your armor won't stop you from a kick!", Rainbow Dash said. "Try it.", Bridge replied in a solid tone. Rainbow Dash kicked the Spartan's armor and his armor glowed with a yellow aura around it. He looked at his energy shield's and the attack only took about 5% of his shields. Under his helmet Bridge grinned with an evil smile. "What the hay?! What was that?", The Pegasus asked. "Oh yeah I forgot to tell you about that Spartans have energy shields which absorb damage from enemy attacks and they are powered by a fusion reactor built in the suits. A single spear or arrow that your guard use wouldn't do a single scratch to my armor a bit.", Bridge replied. "That's like our kind of shields which are used by our magic. But it takes some of our strength to use them while your's doesn't.", Luna said. "What exactly is a fusion reactor?", Twilight asked while looking at the Spartan's armor. "The fusion reactor provides power the armor's shield's and all equipment of the MJOLNIR armor. It's the most essential part of our armor or else without a fusion reactor our armor wouldn't even work.", Bridge replied. "That's so cool! Where do we get your kind of armor?", Apple Bloom asked. "You CAN'T get it. You can only get Spartan Armor if you're in the Spartan program. And I don't think you ponies would be capable of lifting and handling a half-ton suit made of titanium." "Why would a person like you be able to lift a half-ton without any magic?", Twilight asked. "Remember? Spartans are stronger than other humans and during our augmentation procedures made us to lift three times our weight. I was one of the originals in the Spartan two program. We also had Spartan Three's, but the Spartan two's were more effective and skilled. Now we have the new Spartan Four program and I'm one of the leaders of the program. The armor that I have is Spartan Four armor on right now.", Bridge replied. "Do you have any other branches that aren't for combat?", Luna asked. "Well we have a lot. Equipment staff, maintenance crew, engineers, cooks, workers, janitors, and some other minor branches.", Bridge said. "Do you have animals?", Fluttershy asked. "Yes we do. Riley come here boy!", Bridge called out to a German Shepard. The dog came to his right side and he had his ears up and wagging his tail. "He's cute!", Fluttershy said. "Yeah he's a good dog. Don't make him angry okay?" "Okay.", Flittershy said as she was petting Riley. "I heard that you could go to other planets if I'm right? You are capable of interstellar space travel?", Twilight asked. "Yes we had colonies, hundreds of them. We found out how to use slipspace technology for our ships and expanded beyond other star systems. Until the Covenant came and started to glass planet after planet during the war. Over 23 billion lives were lost during the war. But now we're rebuilding and we've found new planets to colonize.", Bridge replied. "How did this war you speak about started?", Luna asked. "It first began with a planet that we had named: Harvest. It was the beginning when they glassed the planet and then the UNSC and the Spartan's took the fight to the Covenant. They started a civil war against mankind and they believed that we were a problem to their religious goals. We never backed down on our people during the war. It took five long years to get Harvest back, it was hell on that planet. And then the crew of the 'UNSC Spirit of Fire' went there and found that the Covenant were looking for something. Professor Anders was kidnapped my the Arbiter of the Covenant and the crew of the 'Spirit of Fire' went from Harvest to Arcadia City and then to a forerunner shield world and Sergeant Forge sacrificed himself to destroy an invasion fleet that the Covenant formed from forerunner ships and it was destroyed with the help of Spartan Red Team.", Bridge said. "In the ship that you crashed in do you know what it was?", Twilight asked. "The 'Euclid's Anvil' is one of the four main Autumn-Class heavy cruisers in the UNSC. It was originally made in honor of the 'Pillar of Autumn' Halcyon-Class Heavy Cruiser. They are our newest cruiser addition since after the Human-Covenant war. We have more of the Autumn-Class cruisers but they all have different names like all other ships like the 'UNSC Justice and Vengeance' or the 'UNSC Eye of the Sky' Autumn-Class heavy cruisers. Our ships are made out of titanium and we have thousands of warships at the UNSC's disposal.", Bridge replied. "It was nice talking to you, but I think we'd better go. It's getting late soon.", Luna said. "Alright well it was nice to talk to all of you.", The Spartan replied. "We'll see you soon.", Luna finished as they went away from Alpha Base's construction. "Did you hear that Princess? They have thousands of ships made of titanium lay their disposal with advanced technology that no pony has ever seen before.", Twilight said. "The Spartan's right. They have way advanced technology than we do. We should not become hostile with them.", Luna stated. "That Spartan thinks he's soo cool with his advanced suit and weaponry, but I'm cooler than anypony else!", Rainbowdash said. "Rainbowdash don't get on his nerve's he said he a professional. Let's go see my sister. She's probably waiting for us right now.", Luna said as the teleported to Canterlot.
