Author's Note (Post Chapter 20) THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT

Hey guys, I know this is sudden, but I have important news about this story, and you could take it as good or bad. What I'm talking about is that I plan to do a full-scale rewrite of this entire story. Well, it's not really a rewrite per say, but more of just MAJOR corrections and changes to the writing of the story, plot, characters, etc. Some of you may say that it is unnecessary to go through the work of doing this, but this is on my own accord, as I have started letting my brother proof read my fanfiction. He basically said that my writing quality is shit because a lot of it is written as exposition rather than as action, as well as the lines that the characters deliver seem very unnatural compared to how we actually speak. in this rewrite I will include the follwoing:

1. Remove unneeded characters that make it difficult for me to write the story. This includes the exeeds, Ur, and Romeo. If you guys have any more suggestions for characters to remove or don't like a decision, let me know.

2. Fixing old characters. I made Wendy too powerful for a 12 year old, given that she was significantly weaker than Natsu in cannon, and now is as strong if not stronger than him. I also made Macao too powerful, as well as the way I planned Gajeel also made him too powerful. Don't worry, the characters will still be strong, just not as strong as I previously wrote them to be.

3. Lengthening previous parts of the story. When I first wrote this, I barely wrote any interaction time between Natsu and Mizuki, and I want to extend that significantly. I also didn't write very much for the interaction between Natsu and Wendy, as well as Lucy and the Fairy Tail guild that I created, so I will extend those as well.

4. Reducing the number of chapters. The average book chapter is 5,000 words long, and I have a few chapters that are only a little over 1,500 words long, so I will be combining chapters together.

I will also be making one significant change to how I write this story, and that is taking less suggestions. While I was taking your suggestions, it made the story start to feel less fun to write, hence why there has been such a long amount of time between the last chapter and now. It felt more like an obligation to you guys to write this story when the original purpose of it was to just use it to relax, therefore I am going to start writing it with just my own decisions. You guys can make suggestions about the story, but I will not be asking for as much input as I previously have with the questions at the end of every chapter. Now I may only ask 1 or 2, and sometimes none at all. Just know that you can still make suggestions, and your input is welcome because it lets me know if you like what I am doing.

The new story will be under "Natsu, The Silver Dragon of the Crimson Flame Rewrite" until I have gotten it caught up to where this story is now, in which case I will delete the old story and leave this one in its place. I will still be posting each chapter individually, so you guys can read them as they come out like normal. There won't be any major plot differences, but I would still appreciate it if you guys read the story so I could get some inout if you like my new writing.

I'm not sure how long it will be until the first chapter of the new story comes out, but be on the lookout for that. This fanfiction will be stopping here, on chapter 20.

Keep in mind, the main reason I am rewriting the story is because it will make it more fun for me to write, not because of major grammatical errors.

Let me know if you want to see anything else in the new story. See you guys next time!
