Hey everyone, I'm sorry it's been so long since I worked on this story. I've been dealing with a lot. Not long after my last post, I developed sciatica in my lower back, which has made writing hard (currently writing this in a very uncomfortable position that's not good for my back or writing). Then back in October, I lost my 16-year-old nephew to natural causes while he was sleeping, so I've been dealing with that as well, among other things as well. I've given it some thought, and I'm going to abandon this current story and redo it when I can. I have other ideas I want to at least put a few chapters out of while they are still fresh. I'm sorry to everyone who was looking forward to this story. If anyone wants to continue this version, feel free to do with it as you wish.
