A Life I Lived

by Zyks
This is my journey though the land of Equestria, from the peaks of Canterlot to the human colonies in the Everfree. This is my story of how I went from hunted to beloved. This is the life I lived.

Read the full description.


"What can I tell you about my life? My life was normal. I had a wife, a kid, even a steady job. But that all went to shit after the car crash. I lost everything. I lived in my car for weeks, just driving anywhere. Then I get into another accident and then next thing I know I'm no where near civilization and was about to freeze to death. I tried to go to them peacefully and they attacked me. I didn't want to hide out in a forest, to live my life picking berries, forging for food, or living inside a cave... Maybe they'll forgive me.


A bit of a fair warning before you read this story, it does have ponies that are mean to humans. This doesn't mean that this is the core aspect of the story, it just means that it is a part of it. If you dislike ponies hating humans, then I would suggest that you find a different story to read. If you are still reading this, however, please know that the ponies hating humans is going to be justifiable in the later chapters.

Please don't be too critical with the story, as it is my first FanFiction story. I currently do not have an editor and am doing this on my lonesome. If you see any grammar mistakes, please leave a comment down below, and I will try to mend it.

I will be updating this story whenever I have the time for it, I won't have a regular schedule for updating so do not ask me "Where is the next chapter?" Trust me it will come, the chapter is just not done yet.

If you guys are confused about James's backstory/past don't worry bits and pieces of it will be revealed later in the story. Also if you do like this story, please leave a like as it also helps for this fic to grow.
