As you could probably tell from the chapter name, this is not an update. In fact, it's a goodbye for now. I'm sorry that I haven't updated in a while, but my life has recently become very complicated.

To sum it up, my parents kicked me out, I currently live with my kinda-but-not-really-official-so-IDK-WTF-is-going-through-her-head-right-now girlfriend, I own only a small suitcase full of clothes, a laptop, and other assorted items, I have to worry about how the hell I'm gonna get into college next year, and I haven't seen my siblings in days.

There simply hasn't been time.

Please do not take this as me fishing for sympathy or making excuses, I just thought you might like to know what's going on. I will probably update a story or two down the line, but it will not be team BANE, because I am completely rewriting it from the ground up, because honestly it's become a total mess. 85% of the chapters are fillers, and even I don't know what the fuck's going on anymore. So I'll be re-writing it and holding myself to a higher standard of quality, instead of worrying about releasing an update.

Please keep me in your thoughts, as this will probably be a difficult time for me. I'll write as much as I can, but I won't make any promises. When BANE comes back, it'll be on another story entirely, so if you're reading this, you'll have no reason to come back here after you finish this.

Also, feel free to leave suggestions or even just your favorite moments that you'd like to see return in the reviews and/or my Inbox.

Thank you for an amazing two years,

Dante 'the Kitsune' Stryker
