AU: I am so sorry for doing this to you guys, to everyone who's been watching and waiting for me to update, to everyone who has commented and reviewed...I really had high hopes for this thing, with so many great ideas that I never even came close to getting the chance to explore. But, something has come up.

I don't know if it's some sort of cosmic joke, but life never seems to go your way, does it? I can't, won't, get into the specifics, but I just want all of you readers to know how sorry I am that it has come to this. As of now, I can't continue with the story. I literally can not afford my time to this project. It simply takes too much out of my life to get through a single chapter, and I can't keep it up anymore. So, this is it.

Until further notice, I'm closing this story down. I didn't want it to end this way, but I really don't have much of a choice. I hope you can forgive me for wasting your time, I apologize...and, I'll just go now. Sorry.

The end?
