Y HALO THAR! I have a VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT! The results are in. I asked for you to vote for who you want in the next battle. Top two would be chosen. And those two are (drumroll please!) Cole and Ash! Thank you all for votingI know I haven't updated this story in YEARS. I've been really busy lately with "The Discovery of Mt. Horn", I don't really have time to work on it often.
