I let my helmet retract itself and I take a look at twins, seeing them fast asleep once again. I’m guessing the laughing and giggling tired them out. Their sleeping so peacefully makes my heart flutter with warmness, something that I haven’t felt in many many years since I joined the military.

Just some changes that I thought would make the paragraph flow better :twilightsmile:

I like it my I have anotherz

I let my armor surround the twins to protect them. I leave some open holes in the armor so they’re able to breath. I put them down next to me and ready myself.

Just, what?
Very little information given.
What is his armor made off? How and why is it able to change shape and divide itself?

The lack of description implies as if we should already know these things.

As I said at the end of the chapter, let me adjust. I’ll fix everything to make it sound better.

Thanks! I appreciate the help my friend.

Used the wrong one, it should be

They’re

or changed to something like

Their peaceful sleeping...

This is good so far, and I can't wait to read more of it. :pinkiehappy::pinkiehappy:

lets go next chapter please!

i support you in this!

really do hope you continue( ̄∇ ̄)

Meh I hope I'm going to enjoy his personality when I'm reading it later. I don'T exactly like most soldier guys, because they have that slightly asshole/playboy/"I'm to cool for the world" kind of personality.
I'm still hoping that he is awesome and becaue of the group he will be impressive, but I'm still hoping for his personality to be a nice one.

Why does every human in equis got to be attack by chicks?

Sooo... He is gonna fight them without asking them why they want to fight him. Also, they are also attacking without provocation; Don't all millitaries have rules against that sort of thing?

Despite all the grammer mistakes and missing words I still want to know what happens next. I also recommend to you a program called 'Grammerly.' It helps me a bunch!

It's good but why? Do they atacc?

Wow... That dude looks like Snake-Eyes from GI Joe. Awesome

I hope we get an explanation next chapter, at least a reason even if it's something like "He was covered in blood and holding children"
That could work actually since he has been killing manticores on the way out of the everfree.
Even though they attacked him straight up without even indicating that they saw him holding kids.

Maybe tyrannical alicorn rulers mandated a kill on sight for any alicorns outside of the royal family?

Next chapter I will explain everything. How the armor works and other things.

Honestly this looks like its going to be a great story. I will say that I hate you for making a cliff hanger st the end if the chapter but I guess that is to get people to get interested. But still it annoys me, though I can't wait until the next chapter. Keep up the awesome work Dark.

Sorry about that, but there will be more cliffhangers coming and I’m glad you’re enjoying this story. :twilightsmile:

More chapters please!!!

Please continue

  1. How is this a self-insert? Even if the character shares the same name as you, it's only a self-insert if the character is literally supposed to be you. Are you honestly claiming to be a super-solider from 48–49 years in the future?
  2. She left him... a letter. She transports him to another reality and physically transforms him without permission, and has the gall to request a favor of the magnitude "spend the next two decades raising these two infants for me" without offering anything as compensation nor even support... and she doesn't even extend to him the basic courtesy of explaining all of it face-to-face? What a total bitch.
  3. Great job with the human-to-pony transformation before you even described the character once. That's sarcasm, by the way. Nathan might as well have always been a pony at this point given how we have been given next to nothing to connect him to once being human.
  4. "I launch my fist in the wall." The way you wrote that, I can't not imagine Nathan, sticking halfway out of a wall firing his fist off his arm like a rocket punch. Couldn't you say "I threw a punch at the wall," like normal?
  5. Additionally, was it necessary for him to punch down the wall? Couldn't he have just... I dunno, walked around and found an existing hole to go through, like a doorway? Like a sane person would?
  6. Why are there so many manticores? Manticores would be apex predators in the forest, so there should be very few of them, as there wouldn't be enough prey to support a large population of them.
  7. "Something that I haven’t felt in many many years since I joined the military." Unless you are implying Nathan is a child soldier, "many years" is probably just 3 years. That's not actually a very long time—roughly 1100 days—the majority of which would not be spent in combat, especially if there isn't a major war going on at the time. Most of that time would be spent drilling or fulfilling duties... or sleeping. And in Nathan's case, as one of the 5-6 successful super-soliders, a lot of time spent in research labs undergoing various physical and chemical tests to help determine why he survived and not the others. So, in short, Nathan is more likely to still be relatively inexperienced, not a super-skilled veteran soldier. Of course, you'll ignore all this logic because it's inconvenient for you, so I don't know why I'm even bothering.
  8. Why does he feel so compelled to "keep the twins safe and raise them well"? He doesn't even know them, and has no emotional attachment to them. In fact, as a super-soldier, it is more likely that he would be predisposed to not form emotional attachments, since intelligent weapons are more useful when they don't feel sorry for their victims and only focus on accomplishing their objective. A missile that intentionally missed because it was worried about never seeing its friends again or because it felt empathy for the target wouldn't be very useful, would it?
  9. Why are these guards immediately attacking instead of using less violent means first, like talking? Nathan has done nothing wrong and wasn't doing anything threatening, so they have no immediate reason to treat him as hostile. They should have instead stopped him and asked the obvious questions, like "who are you" and "what are you doing here". You don't need an interrogation room for such simple questions. Especially since Nathan has no real reason to withhold the answers from them. Really, even if the guards are being panties-on-head retarded, instead of immediately fighting back, he should be trying to talk them down and negotiate with them.

You raise some very good points.

i would like to see were the story will go

And consider my intrigue peaked.

if this going to be another "Enslave all stallion" universe I'm gonna flip my shit

Love it so far! but first I must say.

Some of the grammar, while most certainly not unreadable is a little jumbled. It could do with an editor so the whole thing flows a bit better but otherwise, Meh, it doesn't bother me all THAT much.

Also as some previous comments have stated and as you have responded to in your update notice/chapter deal. There could be some explaining but honestly I kinda like the idea of explaining things as they go. That's just a personal thing though, I don't really mind things being a bit vague at first. Kinda opens up dialogue opportunities with characters later I.E. "How does that even work?" then he responds with explanation and therefore informing the audience. If done right, really cool, if it inst than it can be a bit off.

REGARDLESS I do love where this is going so far and I would really love to see this dude kick some pony ass for sure. Can't wait for that conclusion. Also great work. Been wanting another anthro human story, especially from a future soldier type view. I realize its been done many times before but I really like these kinda stories! Can't wait to read more!

Because cock compels them. Get it? :rainbowkiss:
I am so witty I need to pat myself on the back. :pinkiecrazy:

When's the next chapter?

Please continue the story

What's going on it's been a long time since I spend a new chapter I want to know what happens

I fail to see how Reyes is a hardened soldier. Where’s the cold and calculating nature one would otherwise expect of a hardened soldier?
I expected the “loving father” transition to be a whole lot longer, not less than an hour.
I mean, the title of this story is Hardened Soldier to Loving Father.
I’m just rather underwhelmed of this story right now.

There are also many errors in this chapter, but I currently fail to figure out how to fix some of them.

I want to read more of this story
