Twilight Sparkle, accompanied by one Eshkhan "Spike" Vishap, is sent to the quaint town of Ponyville to oversee the Summer Sun Celebration and "make some friends." Twilight, however, is worried about the possible reawakening of the dreaded Nightmare Moon and finds herself frustrated at her inability to complete he study of the subject. Things take a turn for the worse when Nightmare herself shows up for the party.

Written mostly from Spike's point of view.

Written as a test of my literary skills and to test out an idea that's been niggling at the back of my mind.

An undead Emperor in need of a new body. A Spartan lost in space. A ragtag team on a suicide mission. What do they all have in common? They all wind up on the magical world of Equestria, where war has been forgotten. That, however, is soon about to change.
When each of them is about to be retrieved, ancient evils arise to unleash hell upon the unsuspecting world. When the forces of three galaxies clash around them, can our favorite ponies hold out against the onslaught?
This is a crossover involving Warhammer 40k, Halo, Mass Effect and MLP, and is also my first fanfic. Comments and reviews are welcome.
Rated T for language, violence, and general adult situations.
Now on Tv Tropes!

Tristan, a young man in college, has lead a perfectly normal life with a good best friend, good parents, and generally favorable prospects. However, he's fated to have all that torn away as he falls through a strange rift to an alien land filled with unknown dangers. Now instead of worrying about his next exam he finds himself forced to worry about his next meal as he struggles to survive in this new environment that makes less and less sense as he forges on.

- Cover picture by DarkCord -

A normal day on the job, (or so he thought) sends Etrius through a portal to Equestria. However something in the air changes the mares, and stallions, when he's around them...

Commander Shepard remembers firing the crucible. She remembers she had to make an important choice. She remembers good friends, a lover, and plenty of loyal crewmen.

She just can't remember what her choice was. What the threat she was striving so hard to end was. Or what the faces of the most important people in her life look like.

She also has no idea how she wound up in the monster filled forest she's come to call home for the past eight months. Or how she picked up a snarky A.I. making its home in her omni-tool.

It is the thirtieth century, humanity has advanced well past interstellar spaceflight. Starships are commonplace, as is strife and conflict. Humans have developed an incredible sense of ingenuity for destruction...ingenuity that has not gone unnoticed. Decades of conflict have changed our race, and a human with a mind for destruction is exactly what a certain creature on a lonely and distant planet is looking for to help her in a last desperate grab for power. However, this creature is not the only thing vying for control...

-Acknowledgements-

This story was inspired and influenced by a handful of other fanfics, some more so than others. Additionally, a number of good friends helped me along the way to finally finishing it and making it publish ready. Before you read my first ever complete fanfic, I'd like to share these people with you.

V-pony
--Fellow Author whose fanfic Blue Angel (which is also really good, and I highly recommend) was, in large part, what inspired me to write this story. Additionally, I draw a fair amount of influence from that fanfic, so if you see any similarities between the two, (mainly just how some scenes are structured and a few concepts here and there), know that it was with V-pony's thumbs-up. I'm not ripping off the guy, just using inspiration where I found it. :)

Lastly, in some chapters you will find a URL that looks like this:

soundtrack

When you do, I recommend that you put on a good set of headphones and open it in a new tab while you continue reading. They're just bits of music I thought would help frame the emotions in the story better, exactly what a soundtrack is supposed to do. They're taken from a few movies, animes, and possibly a video game or two. All soundtracks are property of their respective owners, I own none of them.

The soundtracks are optional, but I feel they add a lot to the story, feel free to enjoy them!

Other than that, enjoy my first fanfic!

I'm Griffin, not much else to it. I've been bullied most of my life, which left me bitter and sarcastic. I'm a closet brony. What? You think I'm just gonna go out and tell a world that hates me that I watch a cartoon intended for little girls? I don't feel like giving the punks at school any more ammo. That's when cosmic powers decide I need to take a trip to my favorite fantasy land. But all is not sunshine and rainbows and it certainly won't be after I'm done with it. Equestria from the point of view of an extremely pissed off teenager, with a twist. Rust, the author of 'The Ballad of Echo the Diamond dog' is awesomesauce enough to have a cross over between our stories. Carnelian is a boss when it comes to art. Part of the 'Chess Game of the Gods'.

Violence, gratuitous swearing, and sexual themes. Reader discretion is advised.

I always wanted to go to Equestria. When I got the chance, I took the deal without reading the fine print. To my surprise, I didn't arrive there as a pony, or even as a human. It seems I get to view this world from a different perspective than what I've imagined.

My name is Echo. I am a Diamond Dog.
