Bring Me to Life

by Star Tiger1

Uhoh, Kyo's gone too far this time. Yuya's gone & left the group & it doesn't look like she'll be coming back on her own. What's this? Kyo won't even let Benitora go after her? And what do Bontenmaru & Akira seem to know that they don't want to tell Yuya?

1. Author's Note

AUTHOR'S NOTE:

Okay, okay, I know that I've been pretty much dead here on but I want you to know that, well, I'm not… I'm just working on original works, really.

See, I have this commission that I've been working on and it's been taking up a lot of time… 33 chapters and I haven't even introduced the bad guy yet… eep, right?

But anyways, the reason for this big note thingy is this: I recently received a review asking me to update this story, and the truth is, I've been re-writing it on the side of my commission. The difference between the rewrite and the original? The rewrite has more plot, and Yuya isn't separated from Kyo all the time. See? Better. Also, I've changed two names. Instead of Kiru and Tora, I decided to change the characters. For those of you who've read "Friendly Persuasion", then you know that Tora is my main sidekick, ne? So, he is now Toge. My main OC is Shinda, cool guy, I think… he's like a Mini-Kyo, only he's so not. Remember Kiru? Shinda is sorta her equivalent, only Yukimura didn't steal anything from him.

Reason for the rewrite? Well, I didn't like where it was going, and besides that, it was at a dead-end anyway. I couldn't think of a thing for Yukimura to have stolen, and everything was all mashed together. See, unlike most authors I've read about, I don't make outlines for my stories. I just kinda let them go down whatever road they want without my having to leash them too much. If I have to leash it to the point that there's a dead-end, then I just start all over with it if I still like the concept that I was trying to put into it.

So now I've got something new going, and I'm going to post the first 3 chapters of the rewrite right in here on the original's page.

THIS IS A REWRITE, PLEASE DON'T THINK THIS IS A CONTINUATION OF THE STORY ABOVE. THANK YOU.

Okay, now that I have that out of the way, I will post the Prologue, Chapter 1, & Chapter 2 under the original's name, which happens to be the re-write's name as well. So here's "Bring Me to Life" take 2, ok? Thanks for putting up with me!
