A/N: 6 years later, I return to read this story only to discover I never finished it. Greatest apologies to everyone who was hoping for a big finish (since I planned to end with Glimmer's death by tracker jackers). I'm afraid its update days are over, so that Chapter 10 is the final chapter. But - maybe that's a good thing? Because it ends in the calm before the storm, with Glimmer feeling semi-happy and not realizing the impending doom? Anyway, I reread the (really old) reviews, and I just want to express my thanks to everyone who read and reviewed this story, even now it's made me really happy. 3 Maysilee
