I am Groot. Just kidding, I am actually just Ryan. A plain boy with a plain life who wants to make something of it by joining the army like his friends. But things are never that easy are they? EENOPE!

What if this plain boy with a plain life could make something of it? What if he could make a difference somewhere?

Life has something in store for this boy, and I sure as Tartarus want to know.

I hope you enjoy this story. Yes, it's a self insert. Watcha gonna do 'bout it? All comments are appreciated, whether it be grammatical errors, typological errors, improvements on what has been said, ideas for what should happen next, or just criticism, I will take them all into account.

I may ask questions in the author's notes so keep an eye out for those.

I have one proof reader, a Luna-tic, but I need one more. PM me if you're interested.

Finally, remember that this is a HiE fic, so don't discriminate it for that reason alone.

I do not own My Little Pony, those rights belong to Hasbro, nor do I own any of the things I may reference. However, I do own myself, which I find surprising considering my parents, teachers and colleagues throughout the years. Any resemblance to real people or fictional characters are purely on purpose.
