In the grim darkness of the far future, cyborg supersoldier Alita is locked in battle with the mad scientist Desty Nova amongst the shattered ruins of Earth. Fighting in dreams as well as reality, the two yearn to transcend the world of suffering and carnage that has forged them. In Equestria, Twilight Sparkle is hard at work developing a new teleportation spell, and subconsciously latches on to their desire. Their starkly different worlds soon collide.
A Battle Angel Alita crossover.
Chapters (3)
Ha !!! First !!!
Battle Angel Alita and MLP crossed paths...
I am an anime fan, and didn't expect to see Gun'mm in a MLP Universe, and Dusty Nova.
Bravo, Well done, you have a reader now and a fan.

1075327 Since it was unexpected and hadn't been done, it had to be done. I've been a huge fan of GUNNM/BAA for years now, and it'd kind of a shame it isn't more popular than it is on both sides of the Pacific (it is very, very underground in Japan. It's not huge in the West, but it's much more popular here than it is there.)
I'm glad you enjoyed it. This should have a quicker update cycle than my other fic, so you should have too much of an agonizing wait in between chapters.
I'll read this because it looks interesting, but also because the pony featured in the cover art is gorgeous.
Is... is this what I think it is? An Alita crossover? It is!
Will read this soon. Must read this soon.
Yay new chapter
Keep it up, the world needs more Alita

Oh I do like the story, and the comic is HIGHLY Recommended, altho the fights and battles are VERY Gory and bloody. So those with weak stomach, need not apply.
I do have some of the original Viz comics of BAA from the 90s, and the first one was a side shot of Gunmm with her head, wings, hips and legs, but nothing else, except the metal parts making up her skeleton, or what you can see.
Does a quick google...
Ahh this is from the VHS which I had as well.. http://www.coverportal.com/trick/zcover/battle_angel_alita_d2.jpg
There ya go....
Keep the outstanding story going my friend...

Yes, the comic is glorious, and much of the science used in it actually makes sense.

It looks like you've managed to get the personality of the characters down right, that is good. Desty just rolling with his apparent craziness and Alita just accepting things as they are.
Anyways, keep up the good work with the story.
no idea what alita is but is sounds fairly nice and roboty ...... YES i approve of this fic

Battle Angel Alita.
Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow
The end was quite lol worthy
I am as shocked as the rest of the readers to find a Gunmm crossover, and I once again hope that James Cameron doesn't forget that he promised me a movie.
And this thing just suddenly reappeared. Completely forgotten, yet it pops back up in my unread favorites list.
You forgot the crossover tag.

Damn straight

It didn't exist when I first posted the story, so it wasn't forgotten. Nevertheless, tag added.
The crossover point happens in the first Battle Angel and not Last Order right?

Wierd.

Yeah. Though I'm taking the opportunity to be creative and weave together the flashbacks from the end of the original with ones from Last Order, because I thought they fit the tone well even if they had been soft-retconned by Last Order.
at least we don't have to deal with vampires.

Such a good anime.
First time I've seen this anime/manga as a crossover here and finding decent fanfiction for this series is near impossible. So sad its been so long since this was updated.
I just watched the movie. :P
Alita!!!!😍
