T

Shortly after Cadence returns to her home in Istalia, Shining Armor is more determined than ever to become a full fledged Royal Guard. He immerses himself in countless hours of studies and physical conditioning to prepare himself for the intense training he assumes he will receive. He quickly learns that the life a Royal Guard leads is one of constant sacrifice, and brotherhood.

An interesting premise!
I look forward to where you take this story!

Interesting, I'll have to keep an eye on this.

I thank you for the positive feedback. I had to try and replicate the style in which Kuromi wrote her story to depict Shining's perspective to try and make it fluid with her writing. I strongly recommend reading her story "I found Love" to fully be up to speed. Because the story will start taking off and referencing the time they spent together. especially with their interaction in coming chapters. that's about as much of a spoiler as I will allow myself to give

Its sounding wonderful so far. I love the way you picked up right where I left off. I felt like I was reading my own story for a bit, with an extra scene I forgot I had written. I do that sometimes when I use multiple devices to write on.:twilightblush:
You seem to have characterized everyone well, and I can see a lot of emotion in your writing. I can't wait to see what happens with Shining Armor in training. I regret not writing more about him, but its great you are able to. One thing I suggest is instead of saying 'brush with death' for Cadance's heart illness, is just say illness. Then even if someone hasn't read my story they might make more sense into it. Not that I don't want people to read it... hehe.
Can't wait to read more and to write a letter!
Thanks so much for taking my story and creating something more from it.

Oh this IS going to be good...

Better start reading as soon as possible.

I have revised that sentence that you suggested. reading it again in context after seeing what you had said made me feel the need to re-word it. I feel more comfortable with the new wording.

Love it love it love it FAV IT:pinkiehappy:

I would look into this straight away but I've just begun to reread I Found Love so it may be a while 'til I get to your continuation (is that a good word to call it by?) :rainbowdetermined2:

"continuation" is a good word to use. I am also re-reading "I found love" both because I have valuable experiences I can use from that story, and I just love it.

2844788 Oh yeah definitely love it. And to think I'm not particularly forgiving of many fictional things, yet I could never let that one story (out of many others in my favourites) be perceived as anything less than a perfect love story. :scootangel:

Eagerly awaiting updates!

Thank you all for the support. I'm working on the next chapter and hope to have it to you very soon. My unit is currently getting ready for a field exercise and a ruck march so my preparations have kind of put the second and third chapter on hold for the time being. bear with me as I continue to steal free time to work on this for you guys.

Quite brilliant cadet. Quite brilliant indeed

thank you for the positive feedback. I'm still working on chapters 1 and 2 whenever i have free time. Unfortunately, I don't get as much as I would like. I have a 3 week leave that will be starting in a couple of weeks, so hopefully I will have more for those that have enjoyed this.

Just now read this and it's a good start only I notice something odd with this line in particular:

As I caught my breath and slowed my heart hate,

Isn't it "rate"? :derpyderp2:

Anyway do keep it up. :pinkiehappy::twilightsmile::raritywink:

oh dear, can't believe i missed that. guess i'll have to go through and read that chapter again in order to catch any other silly mistakes i missed during final edit.

3019220 I don't think I picked up any others but do what you wish. :eeyup:

When will you publish the next chapter? I'm so ansioux:pinkiehappy:.

Hello all, I want to extend my most sincere apologies. I've been assigned to the 101st Airborne Division and have been getting settled in and currently in the field training up for combat scenarios. I will be back in garrison at the end of this month and will be finishing chapter one and also getting chapter two cranked out ASAP

Thanks for a great read and do update. Rereading can get boring after the 17th time.:pinkiesmile:

I was recently medically discharged from the Army due to injuries from deployment. I'll be getting back to work on this and hopefully with the help of the wonderful kuromi of I Found Love for her fantastic characterization of cadence. I've been stuck in a rut and from my life experiences whether they were my recent divorce, my discharge, or my relocation to Florida; I'm slowly finding the inspiration to write again.

I mistaken it as CoD but I now realise it's not
