I'm sorry for getting your hopes up that this would be a new chapter for Domino Effect. I'm sorry for leaving you hanging, for constantly keeping you waiting for more. I feel terrible. I'm losing faith in this story. I have zero inspiration right now. You have no idea how many times I have typed up the next chapter and then had to delete it and rewrite it to make it better. I still have several storylines in mind, and I'm pretty sure those amazing ideas won't go away no matter how long it takes me to update. I would have updated this sooner, but I have been neglecting FanFiction for the longest time. I am not leaving FanFiction. I am probably going to continue writing Kingdom Hearts content as well as dabbling in other fandoms like Pokémon, Mario, and Smash Bros. This is just the end of this story. For now, at least. I will leave it as incomplete in case I ever want to come back to it. If you've read through all of this so far and want to continue, let me explain why I've left this story.

First off, as I've explained already, I don't know what to do right now. Writing the next chapter seems fun but I also get bored doing it and I never get enough work done, and when I finally put enough effort in it to finish, it's either terrible or I just feel as though more can be done to make it better. Secondly, I have a lot on my plate right now. I'm dealing with family, friends, a girlfriend, and a personal life right now. I've begun my senior year of high school. Hurray for that! If I do ever feel like returning to this story, it would be as soon as our first school break, or even as far as next summer. I have no idea what's going to happen. And if I start to take classes at any kind of school after high school, Domino Effect will be pushed even farther away.

Another reason I'm not writing this is because I'm trying to focus on my career as an actual writer. I've always wanted to become an author. I've always wanted to get my own book published. Since I always thought that could never happen until much later, I turned to writing fanfiction to get my writing out there. Now I think I'll write fanfiction less frequently in order to actually write a story that could potentially be published.

I'm sorry for all of this trouble. Writing this story has been one of the best things to do in my free time. The reviews I read are what made me update. But even now it's hard to do so. I'm sorry for leaving this. But please, if you will, keep this story under your alerts so in the future, if I DO return to this story and update, even if it's not frequent at all, you can still check on it and read it. That would be awesome. You guys are the best. I'll see you in the future if I ever update this story.

Hobey ho,
