AN: Something has happened with this story, something I most definitely did not think would happen when I began to write it. The story has gotten away from me, and has evolved into something so ridiculously huge and so time consuming that I can't begin to describe how much it's affecting me.

Part One of of this series has turned into the prologue piece for the main series and will end here. I know, I know, it's a weird place to cut off, and the second part will most likely confuse quite a few people with the way it starts (I implore you to bear with me), but the remaining parts of this will be shown in there through flashback. (I liberally take from the show's format in this way). In all reality there wasn't really much left of the prologue part of this story, but I can't seem to make myself write it in a way that's natural and flows and feels right at this moment, but the story has continued and quite a bit of it has already been written, and I don't want the story to just stop and I feel you guys have waited long enough.

My next update will be by the end of the week, please look for: The Life and Times of Felicity Smoak, I'm ridiculously excited to post it. Please leave reviews there, I would very much like to know what you all think of that one.

Best of luck to all of you, and happy fanfic hunting.

A thank you to foxxandbeanz for putting up with my crazy and being the best internet best friend a person could ask for. And though they may no read this The Laughing Duchess has inspired me as well. She came back to her amazing story after nearly a year and it's amazing, so I must strive to be maybe just as almost good.
