Author's Note:

It took this long, but it's here. Yes, I finally finished it. I'm sorry, it was due like 3 years ago.

Life caught up to me, and when I did have some free time I found that I was either lost on where I wanted this to go, or did not like what I had written down in the first place. Because of all this I decided to rewrite the story.

No major plot changes, just small things that will either make the story flow better or have it fit in with canon, and the characters personalities. I also reformatted the chapters, because I used to cut off the story for dramatic effect instead of a logical conclusion. Again, this makes no difference in the scheme of the plot, just halves the amount of chapters I originally had, basically.

Further, yes you can expect more stories from me, but no, not immediately. I'll be posting stories when they're fully complete, instead of per chapter. You might be waiting a few months to a year on a new story, but I'll promise it'll be worth it.

As always, thanks for taking the time to read this. If you enjoy this story, I highly recommend you do not read the two I wrote before this. The difference in writing is jarring, and you'll start hating me
