The Final Crusade

by Enfield
What would you do, and how far would you go to protect the ones you love?

James Rogers is just your average sixteen-year-old British immigrant. Moving to the US after living in Southport for ten lonely years he ends up in a friendly town and manages to live happily. James still faces the fact that he has spent most of his life alone, he has friends but he has secrets that he doesn't want to show and secrets that he doesn't even know about himself. All of this changes one fateful day at the gas station when he finds three young girls hiding behind the building, James soon finds out that the girls are the Cutie Mark Crusaders in human form. Lost, scared and clueless to where they are, James makes the choice to take them under his care, but that one decision leads to a mix of love, hope, loss, betrayal, and sacrifice. No matter what though, James made a promise to get the kids home, and he'll keep it until his mission is accomplished.

Author's notes: I'm really glad I finished this story. It's my first fic and the whole thing took me three months to complete and a week to fix all the errors and change the passages that I didn't like. This story here is probably the best thing I have ever written(not to brag or anything), I hope to write sequels to this story if it works out. Hope you enjoy it, because I enjoyed writing it.
One more thing, this is the first story in the Final Crusade Trilogy and the adventures of James Rogers will branch off into other shorter stories. I'll start writing them if this becomes popular enough.
UPDATE: I've decided to heed my friend's advice and divided this up into chapters. Hopefully now it will look even better than it did before.
