This is not a chapter.

And now, for the Copyright Finale!

What happened in between chapters:

I had school-related issues and was banned from the site altogether. Most of the chapters were illegally uploaded. Be grateful that you got anything at all.

Now, for the big question:

WTF? Where were you? WE thought you were dead!

Ah, yes. That question. Thing is, I am a bit a technological butterface. I didn't know how to upload the second chapter.

Laugh away. You're next, one day.

So I did the only thing that made sense at the time. I cheated on and went to a teeny little site called Ficwad dot com.

Ah, Ficwad. Home to quite a few My Chemical Romance Fanfics as well as some extremely strange Harry Potter Ones.

So I was on Ficwad for a long time, until...

Oh No! Duck! Run for Your Lives!

A TROLL WENT ON THE LOOSE!

So the troll completely slandered my story, turning it into a fictionary leper. Nobody wanted to read it. (Ratings are complicated. Check it out for yourself.) So I came back.

I came back to and I uploaded like a madwoman.

Everything was fine and dandy. (Copy, paste, convert, upload, put on fanfiction dot net. My computer's having a no-site-names-allowed day. I accidentally skipped over a few chapters, but I put them in. What A headache that was.)

But then (the plot thickens!) I started having problems getting the chapters onto the story. URG. Not fun. So I called for Lassie to help me out. Instead I got James. He said that I should delete my entire story and start over. Being as pigheaded as I am, I decided that I would wait, and it would solve itself.

And it did. Happy Ending, big smiles, Rainbows.

All the same, Thank You, James for helping me out, a little.

Hey, at least you tried.

Big shout-outs and thank you's for Fangirl Numbuhs 1-5. Aka, K.L. Y.M. K.P. and S.M. Dear S, you are Fangirl numbuh 5 because you never answered my emails.

Random stuff:

Ingrid was actually from a Teen Titans Fanfic I scrapped. She was a teleporter with a mechanical arm and an immunity to enemies attacks.

Cadel Young is named after Cadel Piggot from the Evil genius series. He was going to be antisocial and obese and have really bad acne. I changed him a great deal.

Holly Beetles is a purely original idea.

Lincoln is also a purely original idea. I was planning to kill him off, but then I picked Malcolm instead. Apologies, Malcolm fans.

Malcolm is an original OC too.

The entire fanfic was inspired and loosely based on the Malice series by Chris Wooding. He's an awesome writer. All similarities to Malice/Havoc by Chris Wooding are mostly by accident. Seatbelts save lives. I do not own Malice OR Havoc by Chris wooding. They belong to Chris Wooding.

Now, for the Ultimatum (For the record, I actually know what that is):

Write a review.

At least Just Put 'It wuz good'. Seriously. I won't even care about the spelling. If you want to post a bad review, by all means,

BUT,

YOU HAVE TO GIVE A REASON WHY!

I am aware that Holly is a bit of a Mary-sue. *Slams face on keyboard* Please, Please no comments on that. Please.

There is abso-frigging-lutely going to be a sequel, but it's not going to be soon. I'm working on an original project on Ficwad. You find it first by finding Ficwad (Surprising, I know) going to original, going to science fiction, and it should be there somewheres. Look for 'Absalom'. The sequel for operation H.O.L.L.Y. is going on Ficwad first and then onto Fanfiction dot net.

Thank you to those who read to the end. Kudos to y'all. I own everything in this story. If you feel like drawing my characters, YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO DO SO WITHOUT ASKING. I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU CALL IT IN THE OLD COUNTRY, BUT I CALL THAT STEALING!

If you ask, and I say yes, then you are allowed. And send me a link, cuz I'd like to see it.

Keep plastic bag out of reach of children.

Props to K.L. for helping me decide whether Cadel/Fullbright was a good pairing or not. And for, y'know, everything else.

Props to those who let me bum their art classes and hang out. I am aware that I'm loud. Like the Art Teacher. Here's to you, Mr. Wiebe. I hope I spelled your name right.

And now, I am done.
