Author's Note:

From the way a few of the comments have been going, I'm not entirely surprised with what was being said. I wasn't too fond of the idea myself, and if anyone didn't read the last note I had in the ninth chapter, it was questioning if anyone felt like another girl should be with Natsu besides Erza.

*Claps hands together* Now, the reason I gave the offer itself was to actually see what would be said from everyone who bothers to read my notes, and I thank you for those who did and gave me your input. It was originally going to be the first ten comments I got regarding the idea, and now that I have those comments, I noted a large majority wish for the story to remain as the main pairing.

If people did feel like they wanted another girl, I would have struggled to come up with ideas for how they meet, but I would have done it. I felt like I owe you guys a lot for sticking with me and reading my stories, so I tried to offer something. Now though that I learned so many of you still prefer the original pairing and are actually liking my story so far, things will continue like this.

HOWEVER

This doesn't make me stop from having other women become interested in Natsu, it just means that Natsu won't feel the same way. I'm going to create a few moments to 'test' the bond that Natsu and Erza have been building over the story, since we all know the first few weeks of a relationship are rather fragile. There won't be too much that I'm going to expose right now, because I like keeping some secrets.

I can only imagine how a few of you will view the Jellal and Tower of Heaven chapters coming up in the future, since it will be a nice bit of seeing how strongly they feel for one another.

Anyways, look out for a continuation of the story within the next week or two.

Next time:

"The Caged Dragons?"
