Post Fic Author's Note.
~~~~
Finally reached the end of the story. You still with me? Okay, I understand that the final chapter of this fic might disappoint some of you. After all, it was short, and those of you interested in the Bra/Goten side romance, or the Goku/Goten/Gohan/Raditz angle might feel cheated. But this really is how I wanted it to end, and I'm sorry if I did disappoint you.
This was the first fic I ever posted in the DBZ section, and it will always be special to me, it took me over a year to finish it, and my writing style has changed a lot since chapter one. Those of you who are following 'Unrequited' will know about my state of mind recently, and I used that depression as inspiration for the ending few chapters of this fic. Originally, I had planned for Marron and Trunks to escape at the docks, and begin their new life together, but now, I really think that the ending posted is a lot more fitting for the whole feel of this story. I wanted the fortune teller to make another appearance, and the legend to be more relevant to the fic. I hope I did a good job, and I really hope you enjoyed it.
Thanks to all of you who ever reviewed this story, and even those of you who read but didn't review. Just knowing that one person has read this and enjoyed it means so much. I truly hope I didn't disappoint you, and if I did, then I'm sorry. But 'tis how I wanted it to finish, so 'tis how it finished.
You might notice that the chapter has changed slightly, and that's because I felt that the Fate/Destiny plot was too subtle in the actual chapter, and then just tacked on at the end. I was feeling sorta not myself yesterday when I first posted the chapter, but I realise that's no excuse for posting a sucky chapter. Even though this revised chapter may still be lacking something, I'm hoping it's an improvement. I would like to thank icemint for being honest! ^^
What I was trying to get across in the chapter is that Marron's fate was already decided, and that's why she committed suicide, because it was the only way she could be with Trunks, and it was the only way she could truly be free. I realise that I didn't develop that idea enough, but meh.
Thanks again to my readers, and I'm sure I'll see you soon if you scuttle on over to Unrequited. *smile*
