Earlier
"Your Highness, she's wake. You may see her now." I looked at the nurse pony, thanking her. I heard a dull thud behind me, so I turned to find nothing but an over turned stool.
"James? James, where are you?" I looked around one more time before heading towards Twilight.
After my visit with Twilight, I went looking around for James. After talking with fellow soldiers, I found out that he was not in town. This made me worry.
"What if he was Foalnapped! No, that couldn't happen. His men are here and I would have heard something. But that over turned chair makes me wonder. After that mental conversation and one last look around town, I was on my way back to the castle.
As I walked in, a pair of guards ran to my side. "Princess! We need you in the Medical wing! Princess Luna is hurt!" I paled at the last part.
"I'll meet you two there!" I then teleported.
Present
When I ran in, Luna looked at me and smiled. "Sister! We are rejoiced at your presence!" I looked over my sister with a displeased look. She was wearing a neck brace and had a large bandage around her right leg.
"Sister! What has happened to you?! Who did this?!" I let out an angry tone I have never used before.
"Well, We shall start from the beginning. We were walking with a guard who was giving his report when We heard shouting in an Interrogation room. When We walked in, there was one of the Humans that helped rescue Twilight. His face was bloodied and bruised. The Interrogator was none other than Shining Armour. We released the Human to bring him to the medical wing while the guard stayed to yell at Shining. When We were almost there, he woke up and killed the two guards carrying him. Then he threw a knife at me and put an arm around my neck, causing me to pass out." I looked at Luna in a horrified manor.
"I can't believe Shining Armour would do such a thing."
"Nor can I Tia. Nor can I." I looked at my sister and gave her a hug before leaving.
James
Oh Lord, what the Hell is going on? I was running away from my captors when I ran into another group of armoured ponies. I don't know what set them off, but they all attack me while a few went for reinforcements. While I managed to lose the guards, I some how got my self lost in the process. I heard a pop of sorts behind me. As I turned around, I saw a bright flash of light, then someone grabbed me from behind. At that moment, my training kicked in. I grabbed the arms holding me got them off and elbowed the creature in the ribs many times and threw them over my shoulder. When my vision cleared, I saw that it was a purple unicorn with wings. It was the pony I saved from the forest.
"What was that for? I hadn't done anything to you!" The pony got up, shook her head and glared at me. At that same moment a louder pop and a brighter flash went off behind me. This time I dove behind the purple creature. When I got to my feet, I grabbed the pony and held my knife to her throat.
"Stay back! I will kill her! If so much as one muscle twitches, she will need a new head."
"Why would you do such a thing James? We both know that you won't, so please put the knife away and come and talk with me." I looked at the pony to see none other than Celestia standing there with a sad look on her face.
"No! I want answers! Why did you have me kidnapped!" The princess looked even more sad.
"I did not have you kidnapped. Shining Armour did that on his own free will." I could hear the confusion in the purple ponies head before she spoke.
"Celestia, why would my brother do that? This isn't him. It had to be a changeling! It had to be!" The mare slumped forward and stared ahead. Trying to wrap her head around the situation was my best guess.
"Princess Celestia! Shining Armour has awaken. He is willing to talk." The guard finished his report when he turned his look towards me. He got in a defensive stance and ignited his horn.
"YOU! You killed Light Weight and Serenity Shield! Get behind me Princesses! I'll take care of this Mother Bucker!" With that he charged up a spell. Apparently Magic has recoil, seeing as how his magic bolt, instead of heading towards me, it was going to hit the purple pony that was standing a few feet away. My eyes widened as time seemed to speed up. With no hesitation, I dove at the mare and shielded her with my body.
There was a loud bang and a bright flash, as if some one set off a flash bang. I felt a painful searing in my back. I opened my eyes to see every thing was blurry and the voices distorted, like you see in war movies where someone narrowly avoided and explosive, but still got hit with the shock wave. That is the best way to describe it. I looked behind the ponies and saw my wife, Rebecca smiling at me, while wearing the same dress I had bought her on our first date. Next to her was my daughter and my son. They were all smiling and waving at me to join them. I had a hard time trying not to tear up because they've been dead for almost 5 years. I tried to choke out their names, but I blacked out before I could.

2. What I mean is putting characters readers submit to you into your fic in later chapters. OC stands for original character. It's actually kind of cool because it lets the reader take some part in the story. The trick is to not let in to many oc's, otherwise you'll have to many characters to keep track of. Here's mine:
Name:Grant Hatch
Rank: Sergeant
MOS: Sniper
Branch: US Marine Corps, MSOR
Age: 29
Physical Description: over 6 feet tall, thin, dark brown hair, needs glasses
Combat Overview: Originally a machine gunner, he was selected for sniper school 4 years after he enlisted ( he joined at 19). Initially a quiet person, he really is a very friendly guy. . . back home that is. In war it's a completely different story. He actually goes out of his way to not make a connection with anybody outside his sniper squad. When one of his squad mates asked him why, Grant said: "Friends in war have a bad habit of dying all the time". That's all he had to say, no one ever pressed the issue again
Preferred Weapons: M40A5, M110, M16 w/ ACOG sight, canted iron sights, laser sight, and vertical grip, M9 Berreta w/ laser sight and silencer.
If I've left something out, or if you have any questions, let me know.

Alas, you are both wrong, as stated by this from Wikipedia:
"The AR-15 was first built in 1959 by ArmaLite as a small arms rifle for the United States armed forces. Because of financial problems, ArmaLite sold the design to Colt. After modifications, the redesigned rifle was adopted as the M16 rifle. In 1963, Colt started selling the semi-automatic version of the rifle for civilians as the Colt AR-15. Although the name "AR-15" remains a Colt registered trademark, variants of the firearm are made, modified, and sold under various names by multiple manufacturers."

6249665 Yes, i realize that now. That is why I fixed it in my story.
6249843 okay, sorry for jumping the gun, I've not gotten to this one yet (I'm clearing through my Read Later folder, and this one is seven to go - but when you can read nearly 100,000 words an hour, it doesn't take long to get there).
6249852 Ok, no worries. Once you read this all the way, let me know what you think.
6249903 will do!
6249935 Thanks.
