Chapter 12: Authors Note plus a new story idea

Well... This is going to be extremely awkward. Um... HI! I'm just updating to say that this story will be going on a extended Hiatus. It will probably be rewritten and be more in depth. I've just lost inspiration for this story. I feel bad but that's how it is. I also will be telling you all that another story idea has popped up. But this one won't be having my Oc's it will, however, have Elfangor coming back to life. It will take place a little while after "The Pretender". I do feel awful for going on Hiatus with this story but I wrote this story when a lot of my world seemed to be crashing down and I look back and I think that too much of my self angst affects it.

But I do hope to be seeing you all at my new story that is yet to be named. Look out for notifications on my Deviantart profile where I go by the same name (RainThatFallsAtNight). With that being said. Here's a sneak peak at my new story.


My name is Tobias. I have-or at least- had a last name once, a home… although admittedly it was not the greatest.

You see my mom went AWOL on me when I was just a baby and I was forced to live with my Aunt and uncle who were divorced not long after taking me in. And I've been shipped between the two since, a burden to be shoved upon the other.

While it wasn't the greatest home I did have a bed, a few stray books, and a place to eat. So on and so forth.

Well… that isn't necessarily the case now.

Instead of a bed I sleep in a tree, not a tree house, a tree. And as for a place to eat? Well point straight. I eat wherever I can, whatever I can. I'm not picky.

And by not being picky I mean I'll eat whatever will stupidly scamper past. I mean as a hawk there's only so much I can actually digest… predator and all.

Yes, yes, you heard me right, a hawk, well, a red-tailed hawk to be specific. Why am I saying this so abruptly?

Well… if you're reading this… then I'm pretty sure you already know the story. Five kids walking through a construction site run into a dying alien, given the power to fight off the aliens that are striving to take over our race, the Yeerks. And they can't find me or any of my friends or else we'll face a fate worse than death…

Sorry. You see it wasn't a very good week for me. My birthday was a few days ago and a few things came to light. Like whom my dad really is.

You remember the dying Alien I mentioned?

Well his name was Elfangor-Sirinial-Shamtul…. And he was my father.


This story will hopefully be better written since I will be putting a lot more effort into it. Also the reason Tobias is so frustrated in this is because... I'd be pretty frustrated too. I mean he found out that he met his father and then said father died five minutes later. He won't lash out at any of the other characters but he will be angsty inside his head. I really want to make this one emotionally deep by staying in character. And you can say that isn't in character then I want you to tell me in a NICE CONSTRUCTIVE way. It probably won't change but I will listen.

Till then ~ Rain
