Yo. Try discovering spaces or useful synopses.

The Human in Equestria thing isn't exactly new, but I won't hold that against you. However, I did notice some errors, for example:

He usually knows everything there is to monsters, but he said that he hadn’t seen anything like this before.

"Knows" is a form of the word "know", a present tense verb, which would indicate the story is taking place in the present when not being articulated by a character in-story. Other sentences in your story indicate that the story takes place in the past. I would suggest changing that, if at all possible.

He usually knew everything there was to monsters, but he had said that he hadn't seen anything like it before.

Much better. :twilightsmile:

“Wait, you can talk?” He asked.

This and many of your other pieces of dialogue throughout the story have a problem in common.

"Wait, you can talk?" he asked.

This should be one sentence. "He asked" is combined with the dialogue, as is any other instance of this happening in your story. Simply uncapitalize the pronouns after your dialogue ends.

Speaking of pronouns, you don't have to continue using them after a character's name is given. While you should never constantly refer to a character by their name, you should also refrain from constantly referring to a character by pronouns. I would suggest a mix of both, calling your OC both by his name and by pronouns.

Other than that, I found some simple errors that would be better off being fixed.

“Shit, now I am going to have to reset this entire pulley system”
“Well, at least we’re safe now” he stated.

You're missing periods here.

“Damn, Run!”

"Run" should not be capitalized.

He yelled as he dove across the small river and push her out of the path of the beast.

"Push" should be "pushed".

The bear didn’t even flinched at the small scratch he had given him.

"Flinched" should be "flinch". Also, don't use two similar pronouns referring to different people in the same sentence.

The bear didn't even flinch at the small scratch Michael had given him.

That's better. :twilightsmile:

I think you get the picture. The errors don't make the story unreadable, but they do detract from it. If at all possible, I may suggest fixing the errors I pointed out, as well as finding someone to help you in proofreading the later chapters of your story.
Other than that, I didn't really see anything wrong with it. :duck:

Oh, I forgot to fix the mistakes I made before entering it. But I have a friend who is helping fix them now.

I just redid the entire chapter. Thanks for the help!

If anyone wants to help me edit, just send me a message. I need editors.:fluttercry:

I tried to catch mistakes that I didn't see through Microsoft Word, I know that Word doesn't get everything, so I probably have some mistakes in there. My friend has been busy unfortunately so I have no editors. Oh well! I hope you like it!:pinkiehappy:

i know that I have 2x more dislikes than i do likes, but I am going to keep putting chapters up. I really want this story to pull through.

That's a good attitude to keep. Just remember, improve. And get proof readers as well. They really help you out.

Just put a like on your story:pinkiehappy:

1726371 The way I see it there a three reasons why this has slightly more dislikes than likes.

1: The spelling and grammar stumbles in places.
2: The plot seems to be moving a tad too fast.
3: You mentioned the first episode(s) of the third series.
