hey guys. it's nyx here for the first time in a long while.

i'm so sorry for having been so inactive and not writing anything for a long while. i'll explain why later, but today, when i read warrior's announcement that she was discontinuing TSAT, i finally worked up the courage to do something i've been meaning to do for a long while now.

i'm discontinuing all of my beyblade stories. i'm so sorry to come back just to say this, but it has to done.

there are a few reasons as to why i'm doing this. firstly, i've been facing a lot of personal issues with life and school, and i've barely managed to balance my pokemon fanfictions on top of that.

secondly-and this might be the most important reason-i've sort of dropped out of the fandom. while i still do enjoy beyblade, i've barely been invested in anything relating to the fandom for the past three years. beyblade was more of my childhood than anything, and now that i started branching out into different animes, i sort of...lost interest.

thirdly, this story is really old. i started writing this in 2014, when i was 12, and my writing then sucked. i literally can't bear to look at it now. i'm glad that i can see the clear improvement, but i downright hate the way this book was written and because of this, i don't even want to continue it.

drowning in darkness was my second ever fanfiction. i was young, clueless and confused, but at that time, everyone was so supportive and all the reviews, favourites and follows on this book made me really happy-hell, it still does. every review made my day and i was so glad to see that people were enjoying it. for that, thank you so much; all the warmth and kindness you all showed me made me able to continue writing fanfiction.

i didn't have concrete plans for this book at all, so i can't really say anything...? the ending literally changed every few chapters and like,, when i went to write this AN, i couldn't remember the title of the story for a few minutes.

unfortunately, i didn't really plan this book at all, so i can't say how this turned out :

as you can see, it's been so long that i don't even remember my own OCs' names. sorry whoops :^)

if you still want to read my non-beyblade works (mostly pokemon and a bunch of other fandoms occasionally), you can find me on wattpad and ao3 at izayoix and sayomiya respectively! i hope that you'll continue to support me despite all of this, and i'm really sorry that i'm doing this.
