Hey all! I have made the decision to repost the story instead of re-updating all the current chapters. Since I already have five chapters finished, it will mean I can keep a consistent update schedule, and start posting now instead of waiting till I finish *all* the chapters. I apologize for the long wait and inconvenience, but hopefully that will end here. If you enjoyed this version of the story, I'm sure you'll like the new version even better. The plot is pretty much the same, but the timeline shifted a little, and there's a couple more scenes/information added in. Since it has been so long, and the writing is much improved (in my opinion at least,) I think it will still be worth your time to read the new chapters even if you've already read this version of them. I will be deleting this version soon, but I'll keep this note up on the new version for a little while. Thank you for your wonderful reviews on this version, and I hope you will enjoy the new version!
