In this story (look at short description) My OC Lightning Clash (Chris) has just heard news that Equestria appears to be at war wit the Griffons over seas. Regardless of him just graduating Chris takes it upon himself to sign up and defend his home. Along the way however he meets Rainbow Dash and falls instantly in love (This is a part romance story with an OC so if thats not your cup of tea you might not want to read this). Now remember that this is my first fanfic and it has a lot of flaws and it's not perfect, but I hope you enjoy it.
