Hey guys! I'm sorry it's taken SO LONG to update! Life has been getting in the way, you know? Especially college! God damn it all! Anyway! I'm ready to continue! Hopefully I'll be able to keep updating. If not, I'll wait during my Thanksgiving break to do that. It'll give me more free time to work on all of my fanfics. Enjoy and let me know what you think! And please be nice!

FLASH!

I glanced over at Noatak, waiting for an explanation as to where the hell he'd been for the past few weeks. I was worried to the point where I actually thought he was dead. I kept going over to the police station and bumped into Beifong a few times in case word got out about a murder case, but at the time, nothing came up. It both relieved and terrified me.

"Where have you been? Every time I sneak over here to Republic City, I don't even see you sometimes. I'm starting to think you hate me or something..." I folded my arms.

"You're like a sister to me, I can't hate you." Noatak let out a genuine laugh.

Noatak's laughter subsided as he put a hand on my shoulder. Noatak grew serious, as I only grew more concerned by the minute.

"I've been...busy with something." Noatak admitted.

I swallowed as I felt a huge lump in my throat. Instead of snapping at him, I tried to be optimistic.

"Busy? Did you get a new big time job?" My face lit up.

"...you could say that." Noatak answered.

His answer was vague and unclear, but I tried to be happy for him anyway. I wanted to believe that something good had happened for him. Lord knows I need some good news.

"That's great!" I smiled and hugged him. "I'm so happy for you! You deserve it!"

Noatak's eyes flashed with a mix of determination and sadness. Let's just say that his behavior was leaving me very confused as well as suspicious.

"June...I want you to leave Republic City. I don't want you to return. Not for a while at least..." Noatak told me.

"W- -what? Why?" I stuttered.

Now he's starting to worry me.

"For your own safety. There are going to be some big changes to Republic City. Really big changes. As I've stated before, you're like a sister to me, which is why I want you to leave the city." Noatak replied.

What's he talking about? Big changes?

"Noatak, I don't understand, what aren't you telling me- -"

"This will be the last time you will see me as Noatak, this will be the last time you see my face."

What the hell? What is he up to?

"Noatak, you're starting to worry me. What's going on?" I blinked away tears. "At least tell me since I'm not going to see you ever again as you claim. You owe me that much. I've been searching for you for weeks, worried sick out of my mind."

"Very well...I'm starting a revolution." He confessed.

"Hold on now...what? A revolution?" I looked at him in surprise.

"That's all I'm able to say." Noatak explained.

"You're really serious about this aren't you?" I frowned.

Noatak nodded before pulling me in for a hug.

"I want to thank you for your company, you've been very kind to me." He spoke softly in my ear. "Maybe someday after this is over, we can see each other again...but for now, this is goodbye. If you don't leave Republic City, just be careful from now on."

I watched as Noatak began to walk away from me.

"Noatak! Wait!" I called out to him.

Noatak stopped and glanced back at me, the look on his face made my heart break piece by piece. I could tell that he was having a difficult time with this as well. I guess there really wasn't much I could do at this point, convincing him was out of the question, it was probably better to just let him go.

"Just take care of yourself okay?" I gave him a sad smile. "I wouldn't want you hurt."

Noatak only nodded in response and turned away again, leaving me standing in the streets alone.

"Shit...I guess I'll just go back to being by myself." I looked down at my feet.

Noatak was a good friend, I'm gonna miss that guy.

FLASH!

"Hey, June! Wakey, wakey!"

I groaned as I rubbed my eyes and sat up in bed.

"Aunt Pema, it's too early for this..." I whined.

"It's actually noon..." She pointed out.

"Oh...I'll be out in a sec then..." I blushed.

I glanced at a cup of water on my nightstand nervously, before quickly moving to put on a red shirt and a matching skirt. I began heading outside and over to my special little spot on the island. On my way there, I bumped into Tenzin.

"I'll be heading over to Republic City for a bite to eat. I'll be back soon alright?" I smiled at my uncle.

"A- -alright...be careful." Tenzin cracked a small smile. "Wait...how do you even get all the way over there? You can't ride Oogie!" He yelled.

"I'm not riding Oogie, I have my own mode of transportation thank you very much!" I smirked.

Tenzin gave me a look of confusion, but let the subject drop for now as I left him standing there alone. I finally made it to my special spot on the island and uncovered my motorboat (courtesy of my father) and began putting it in the water, ready to take off for Republic City.

"What the? Where did you get that thing?" Jinora looked surprised.

"Uhhhhh...hey. What's up?" I grinned.

"You didn't steal that did you?" Jinora folded her arms.

"So just because I sneak out, that automatically makes me a thief. That kinda hurts, Jinora." I rolled my eyes.

"Sorry...I just...where did you get it?"

"My dad sent it to me two years ago...he thought it would be fun to go on a boat ride." I smiled at the memory.

"Oh yeah...I think I remember that. Uncle Bumi and you were both drenched from head to toe when you came back." Jinora giggled.

"Don't tell your dad I still have this, he thinks we got rid of it. Thought it was too dangerous." I chuckled.

"Alright fine...just be careful." Jinora cracked a small smile.

"Later Jinny."

"It's Jinora." She pouted.

"Hey! To me, you're Jinny." I stuck my tongue out at her.

Shouts echoed throughout the streets, people gathered around a popular public spot in Republic City. Banners of a masked man hung next to an individual ranting about his hatred of benders.

Great...another Equalists rally.

I walked slowly, trying not to draw attention. I glanced over at the banner of the masked man they called Amon, the leader of the Equalists. The most striking feature of the poster were the masked man's eyes. They were intimidating, full of determination, and had a hint of pure rage.

Why were his eyes so familiar to me?

I glanced away and continued to walk by, feeling depressed at this point as I was reminded of Noatak.

I should probably go grab something to eat. I'm more moody when I'm hungry anyway...

"You there! Are you a bender?!" The speaker came over to me with his megaphone.

I snapped out of my daze and looked up at the speaker standing directly in front of me, blocking my path.

Ah shit...this is just fantastic.

"Why is that any of your business?" I raised an eyebrow.

"So you are?!" He looked at me with disgust. "Benders like you make me sick! You should be ashamed of yourself!"

People started to gather around me and glared at me with hatred, as if I had just kicked a small toddler.

Why are people so ignorant? Holy hot damn, just calm down you weirdos.

I stood there, attempting to relax, to not do something that I would regret. Normally I would have retaliated with full force and fight back, but I could hear Tenzin's voice nagging at the back of my mind. It was that kind of moment when you were having an internal battle with yourself. The devil stood on your left shoulder, telling you to give in and do what you desired, but the angel would convince you to do the right thing. In this case, Tenzin was the angel in this situation, telling me not to do something stupid, the devil was actually Korra in this case, mostly because she was confident and hotheaded like I was. Knowing her, she wouldn't stand taking that type of bullshit from this guy. I kept contemplating on whether to take the bait or not, but that stupid nagging voice told me that he wasn't worth it.

Plus the last thing Tenzin needed was more trouble from the press and the city council.

I finally snapped out of it and took a deep breath, dropping my shoulders as I lowered my guard.

He's not worth it. Just calm down.

"Who said I was a bender? Now you're just making assumptions. That's rude." I replied calmly.

I folded my arms and stared at the man with a blank expression.

"Are you or are you not a bender?!" He grew frustrated.

"Why should it matter if I was a bender or not? I haven't done anything wrong. You just came up to me and started yelling at me. If you don't mind, I'd like to go and eat like I intended to do in the first place."

"Wouldn't you like to use your bending against me?!" He taunted.

"Even if I am a bender, you're just a waste of time. I grew up with airbenders, smart guy. The benders that are usually taught not to be violent towards others. I was taught not to give guys like you the time of day. I don't need to fight you. Plus, you're only proving my point that you're just a loser picking a fight with a teenage girl. Are you satisfied with yourself yet?" I raised an eyebrow.

The man blushed as the people turned to stare at him instead, this time with doubt and confusion. I simply walked around the prostestor, ignoring his shouts behind me as I began making my way throughout the city.

Wow. I'm actually impressed with myself. Uncle Tenzin would be so damn proud right now.

"Wow, no one's ever really told that guy off before."

I paused and turned around to see a boy my age with a red ferret propped up on his shoulder.

"Really? I'm surprised." I chuckled. "You don't even know how much I wanted punch his face."

The boy laughed at my comment, finding it hilarious in some way. He wiped his eyes quickly and gave me a flirtatious smile.

"That was impressive by the way." He said.

"Thanks..." I cracked a small smile.

"The name's Bolin." He winked at me as he held out his hand.

I shook Bolin's hand and blushed as he kissed it gently.

This guy is a romantic type huh?

"June." I replied politely.

"So you're an airbender huh?" He asked.

"No. I'm not. I'm a...I'm uh..." I stammered.

"You're not an airbender and yet you grew up with them? I'm lost." He grew confused.

"My grandfather was Avatar Aang, I live with my uncle, or his son, Tenzin. We live on Air Temple Island. My uncle is the airbender in the family, as well as my cousins." I explained.

Bolin fell silent for several seconds before his eyes nearly popped out of his head as if having an epiphany.

"You're Avatar Aang's granddaughter?!" Bolin grew excited. "This is so awesome!"

"It's nothing to freak out over!" I smiled nervously.

"Why not?! That's so cool!" Bolin grinned.

Bolin looked like an excited child being told that his birthday was coming early this year, or that he had won an awesome prize at the fair. Bolin gave me the impression that he was genuine, had no hidden intentions, and was an overall good guy. If anyone had befriended me, I was glad it was him. I jumped, feeling startled as the red ferret leapt from Bolin's shoulder onto my shoulder. After cautiously sniffing me, he curled up and laid down on the top of my head.

"Ummm...okay?" I giggled at the red ferret.

"That's Pabu. I think he likes you." Bolin smiled sheepishly. "Sorry about that by the way...he just...does what he wants sometimes."

"He's lucky he's cute." I grinned.

It wasn't so bad after the next hour or so. It wasn't so hard reading Bolin, in fact, he was like an open book. He was a happy-go-lucky type of guy, usually got along with every person he's ever met, is a people pleaser, and is a hopeless romantic.

Not that any of that was a bad thing. For him, it was kind of cute actually.

Bolin took me to a Water Tribe restaurant, recalling how I was hungry and felt like getting something to eat himself. For an Earthbender, Bolin really seemed to enjoy Water Tribe food. It was almost concerning, but after we got to know each other a little more, I kind of grew used to it. I mean, I grew up with Meelo, and let's just say their eating habits were a little similar.

I could deal with it.

"So what was Avatar Aang like anyway?" Bolin spoke up, trying to make conversation.

"Well...he seemed nice. I never really knew him all that well though, he died before I was even six years old I think, I honestly can't remember. I was usually with my aunt and uncle though more than anyone else. I love grandma Katara though. Her cookies are the shit, dude!" I chuckled.

"Man, I can't believe you grew up with such...such legends! Did you know Sokka and Zuko?!" Bolin smiled excitedly.

"Sokka was a great guy from what I've heard about him, but I'm pretty sure he passed away before my grandfather did. And Zuko is still around, I think he comes down for a visit every once in a while back at the Southern Water Tribe. Usually when I'm with my grandma. He's such a softie." I replied with a small smile. "What about you and your brother? What's your brother like?" I asked.

"Mako's a cool guy to be around once you really get to know him. When people first meet him, they only think he's this uptight guy. He's the best friend anyone could ask for though." Bolin smiled warmly as he talked fondly about his older brother.

"You said he was a firebender right? That'd be something I'd love to be...it would certainly be useful during winter." I grinned.

"Yeah, we both do pro-bending fights. We're on the Fire Ferrets team." Bolin said.

Bolin's eyes lit up with happiness, and it was easy to guess that he loved pro-bending. It was kind of cute watching him get so passionate over the sport.

"Really? That's awesome! I've heard a lot about you guys then! I listen to the matches on the radio!" I grew excited.

"Are you a bender? I mean...back there...you never really clarified that...maybe we can go up against each other in a little friendly spar some time." He suggested.

I fell silent, my smile fading away in an instant. I shifted in my seat uncomfortably and averted my gaze.

Just deny...you're not a bender...you're not a bender...

"Nah, I'm not a bender." I mumbled softly.

"Really? I mean your grandfather was the Avatar, your grandmother is a waterbender, your aunt is a waterbender from what you've told me, and your uncle is an airbender. I'm just a little lost is all..." Bolin rambled.

"My dad is a non-bender. Somehow, he didn't get any bending either. But that didn't mean he wasn't an amazing man. He made something of himself and got his own reputation. My dad is Commander Bumi. So just drop it okay? You can do so much without bending you know! It's really not a big deal!" I snapped.

"Whoa! Hold on there! I didn't mean to offend you, June. I'm sorry." Bolin looked hurt.

I deflated instantly, my anger vanishing as I stared at Bolin with guilt.

"I'm sorry...I just...I get really defensive about that stuff..." I sunk into my chair.

"It's okay, I'm just sorry I upset you. Forgive me?" Bolin gave me a small smile.

I regretted snapping at Bolin immediately, wishing that I could take it back, but knowing that I couldn't.

"Yeah...I'm just...I'm sorry. I didn't mean to react like that." I sighed.

"Do you want to talk about it...do you hate benders or something?" Bolin hesitantly asked.

"No!" I blurted out. "I could never hate benders! It's just...complicated okay? I don't like talking about it."

I took deep breaths, trying to relax, trying not to panic.

I'm not a bender...I'm not...

I glanced up at the ceiling to my room and threw a small blade at my target taped to the ceiling with ease.

bull's-eye again...

I kept repeating the process, just throwing my knives up at the target, trying to relax. I was on edge thinking about the night that changed my life. I was reminded of the guilt, the sheer terror that I felt, how it felt like time slowed down.

You're not a bender...not a bender.

"Oh June. You're home." Jinora spoke up.

I snapped out of my daze, looking over to see Jinora standing in my doorway, who only looked at me in surprise. I quickly faked a smile, putting up my mask again, the act that I put on for everyone.

Nothing's wrong. I'm fine...

"Well I live here." I teased.

"No...I mean...you usually don't come back until dinner. How long have you been here?"

Jinora shut my door before coming over and sitting on my bed. I glanced over at the small clock on my nightstand, realizing how much time had gone by.

"About two hours..." I replied.

Jinora frowned, looking like she desperately wanted to say something to me. After a brief minute, she finally let it out, just going for it.

"You...look like you have something on your mind. Want to talk about it?" Jinora asked.

I felt my body stiffen, my breath growing rapidly. I felt my fists clench at my bedsheets, nervous and unsure of what to say to Jinora.

Jinora was smart and observant, she'd be able to see through my lies.

"Oh you have no idea how much I'd love to tell you...but I can't." I mumbled softly.

Jinora tensed up and looked concerned from my words.

"Ikki was right...you have been acting different lately. Honestly you're never really around that much anymore, so it's hard to tell...but you look like you're in distress. I'm sorry I didn't really pay attention until now." Jinora said. "Tell me what's wrong...I promise that I won't tell anyone. You can trust me."

"This isn't something I can tell a kid. I know you're mature for your age Jinora, I'm not trying to tell you that you're too young or anything...but I just can't...I don't...I don't want you to worry, okay?" I sighed.

"It sounds like it's something serious. From what Ikki told me...this has been going on for a while now...just...tell me how much trouble you've been having with sleep. I want to help."

I finally looked into Jinora's eyes, noticing her shocked expression. She came over, before using her sleeve to wipe underneath my eyes.

"Oh Roku." Jinora gasped. "June, you have bags underneath your eyes! How did you manage to hide it with makeup? How long have you been without sleep?!"

I yawned before laying back on my bed.

"To be honest, I don't remember. I sleep for like an hour or two a day at least, but usually I wake up in the middle of the night...and I can't get back to sleep until dawn." I confessed. "How I haven't died from exhaustion, I'll never know." I shrugged.

"June! This is serious!" Jinora blinked away tears. "Why won't you tell me what's wrong? It's bothering you to the point where you're body and mind are so weak that you'll collapse any day now!"

I grabbed at my bed sheets, clenching them tightly as I stared at my ceiling.

"I just...can't sleep. I get so scared..." I muttered.

Jinora perked up, looking at me with curiosity.

"Scared of...?" She prompted.

I heard some yelling down the hallway and snapped out of it, sitting up on my bed again to look at Jinora before going over to my door.

"Hey!" Jinora snapped.

I left my room without another word, leaving Jinora behind.

"HEY! Get back here!" Jinora yelled.

Jinora caught up with me in no time.

"Would you slow down? What's got you so worked up?"

I heard Tenzin and Pema bickering in the kitchen, Jinora and I walked over, diffusing the tension rather quickly.

"What's up with you two?" I asked. "This isn't another fight about the baby being an airbender is it?"

Pema blushed and shook her head quickly.

"No! No! It's not that! It's just..."

Pema glanced over at Tenzin, nudging him gently with her elbow.

"Korra decided to come and drop by in Republic City. She's in jail as we speak. I have to go and get her." Tenzin confessed.

Whoa! Wait a minute! Korra's here?!

I felt a huge smile form on my face as I folded my arms and stared at Tenzin.

She actually listened to me and came all the way here...go figure.

"Wait...DID YOU TELL HER TO COME HERE?!" Tenzin snapped.

I blushed and looked away.

"...maybe." I mumbled.

"JUNE!"

I winced from the harsh tone in Tenzin's voice.

"Tenzin! Don't yell at her like that! You haven't even given her a chance to explain! I'm sure she has a perfectly good reason for telling Korra to come here." Pema glanced over at me. "Right?"

I sighed and leaned against the wall.

"If this is about you two not 'hanging out' enough, then I'm sorry. But that doesn't mean you can just go telling- -" Tenzin started.

"This was never about that." I cut him off.

Tenzin semmed annoyed at my tone, but let me continue after receiving another nudge from Pema.

"You guys keep her trapped there like some damn prisoner! If you want her to be a good Avatar, you'd let her see the world for what it is! If you want her to be a good Avatar, then she needs to get to know the people! To get in touch with the lives she'll be caring for, to get in touch with the spirits. She can't save anyone by staying there for the majority of her life! Grandpa Aang should have known that his idea was stupid! You can't just keep someone cooped up like that! The best way for Korra to get more experience with her Avatar stuff is to put her out there!" I snapped. "I told her to come here, because it would be a good opportunity for her to get in touch with her spiritual side, you would be here with her! It's a win-win!"

Tenzin and Pema looked surprised, that much was certain.

"That was probably the most mature thing you've said." Jinora pointed out.

I felt my face heat up and glared at Jinora.

"Let's just go get Korra. She's probably scared and annoyed with Beifong by now." I grumbled.

"Yes. Let's go do that." Tenzin finally spoke up.

The ride to the Republic City police station was silent and awkward. I couldn't tell if Tenzin was still angry with me for telling Korra that it was a good idea for her to come here.

I was just trying to look out for Korra.

I snapped out of my thoughts when we finally arrived. I followed Tenzin quickly as he demanded for Korra to be released. After much arguing, the cop finally let up and went to find Chief Beifong.

"Chief, Councilman Tenzin is here."

"Let him in." Lin sighed.

Lin stood up from the table and watched with annoyance as the wall behind her pulls apart, revealing Tenzin and I on the other side. Tenzin looked annoyed as he glanced over at Korra, who only smiled nervously at him.

"Tenzin, sorry... I got a little side tracked on my way to see you." Korra stammered.

Tenzin didn't reply and stared at Lin before taking a deep breath in attempt to calm down.

"Lin, you are looking radiant as usual." He spoke up.

"Cut the garbage, Tenzin. Why is the Avatar in Republic City? I thought you were supposed to be moving down to the South Pole to train her?" Lin snapped.

"My relocation has been delayed. The Avatar, on the other hand, will be heading back to the South Pole immediately, where she will stay put." Tenzin replied.

"But- -!"

"If you would be so kind as to drop the charges against Korra, I will take full responsibility for today's regrettable events, and cover all the damages." Tenzin cut her off.

Lin weighed her options and sighed in defeat before waving her hand, unlocking the cuffs on Korra's wrists with her metal bending.

"Fine. Get her out of my city." Lin said.

"Always a pleasure, Lin. Let's go Korra. June."

Korra quickly followed Tenzin out, but not before making an "I've got my eyes on you" gesture at Lin. Meanwhile, I just stood there, staring at Lin as I leaned against the door. Lin finally took notice of me and gave me a glare.

"What up, Beifong?" I pursed my lips.

"Get out of here, you insufferable brat." Lin snapped.

I raised my hands up in defense and smirked at Lin's reaction.

"Whoa. Take it easy. What's with all the hostility? I thought we were friends."

"You're just like your father sometimes." She grumbled.

Lin passed by me at the exit and ruffled my hair gently.

"It's good to see you, kid. Now get out of my station." Lin mumbled softly.

I smiled and finally went to go catch up to Tenzin and Korra. Korra looked like she was freaking out as she was trying to explain the situation.

Tenzin didn't look like he was buying it though...

"Tenzin, please, don't send me back home." Korra pleaded.

"You blantanly disobeyed my wishes, and the orders of the White Lotus." Tenzin said.

"Katara agreed with me that I should come. She said my destiny is in Republic City." Korra brought up.

Tenzin's face grew red as he grew angrier at the mention of his mother.

"Don't bring my mother into this!" He snapped.

Korra continued pleading with Tenzin, and after a few minutes of the conversation, Tenzin began stroking his goatee, as if he was actually considering this.

"Look, I can't wait any longer to finish my training. Being cooped up and hidden away from the world isn't helping me become a better Avatar. I saw a lot of the city today, and it's totally out of whack. I understand now why you need to stay. Republic City does need you, but it needs me too." Korra grew serious.

Ha! That's pretty much what I told him!

Before Tenzin can form some kind of response to Korra's argument, they're both interrupted by a policeman escorting Naga.

"Is this your polar bear dog, miss?" The officer sighed.

Soon enough, we're back on Air Temple Island, waiting for Korra to go back home. I was absolutely furious with Tenzin, refusing to even look at him the entirety of our time back home. Korra tried cheering me up and we hung out for the remaining time we had left together, before she had to leave.

"I can't believe he's making you leave. This is ridiculous!" I yelled.

"I'm angry about this too, but there's nothing I can do." Korra sighed.

"We could run away together. Travel the world. What do yah say?" I joked.

Korra let out a chuckle and punched my arm.

"And what? Be like your grandfather and his friends? We have no source of income and we'd probably be starving by the end of the week." Korra pointed out.

"Hey, that's the fun part! We make our own choices! We could get jobs! Or live out in the wild! Survivial of the fittest, Korra!" I grinned.

"Would you stop it?!" Korra laughed.

Our fun had ended, when the steamer ship docked at the island. After a few minutes, out came three members of the White Lotus. My smile faded away instantly, and I grabbed Korra's arm.

"Listen...I'm sorry this didn't work out. I thought Tenzin would let you stay for sure...you have no idea how disappointed I am with him right now." I mumbled.

"Hey. It's not the end of the world. We'll still be able to see each other. Just drop by the Southern Water Tribe sometime." Korra smiled weakly.

Suddenly two gliders zoom by and land at our feet. Ikki arrived first before Jinora came with Meelo riding piggyback. They collapse their gliders and rush over to Korra, hugging her immediately.

"Korra!" They yelled excitedly.

"Are you coming to live with us on the island?" Ikki grinned.

"No, I'm sorry Ikki. I have to go home now." Korra sighed.

"Oh..." She looked away in disappointment.

Tenzin watched the exchange in what seemed to be sadness and most likely guilt. After giving Korra another hug, I watched her walk away with Naga. It seemed like hours as time seemed to slow down, but when Tenzin finally spoke up, Korra turned back in surprise.

"Wait! I have done my best to guide Republic City towards the dream my father had for it, but you are right. It has fallen out of balance since he passed. I thought I should put off your training in order to uphold his legacy, but you are his legacy. You may stay and train airbending here with me. Republic City needs its Avatar once again."

Tenzin put his hand on Korra's shoulder for support, and after a few seconds Korra smiles in joy. Soon enough we all begain cheering for Korra's stay after Tenzin had changed his mind. Korra scooped us all up in her arms, including Tenzin as she began to lift us up in the air. After finally putting us down, Tenzin grew serious.

"Yes! Thank you! You're the best!" Korra smiled.

"Yay!" The kids cheered.

I stood back behind Tenzin, smiling at the scene.

Maybe things will change for the better for once...

Hey guys! I'm sorry it's taken so long to update this story! College has been insane, and on top of that I finally received my driver's license. It's amazed me at how long it's taken me to finally get my shit together and get this done. It's relieved some stress from my family finally because they won't have to worry about taking me to my campus anymore. Anyway, aside from that stuff, I've also been super busy with homework. And after my Thanksgiving break, finals are literally just around the corner. It's just...overall, I've been really stressed. Writing fanfiction usually relaxes me, but I haven't had the time for it at this moment. I just had a little bit of free time and thought I'd finally finish this chapter for you. I'll update my other stories too if you've been reading them, but for now, I'm not going to be updating my stories as frequently as I used to. Maybe after finals are over, will I finally have the time to relax and just write. It's been hard getting inspiration for my fanfics because I just have this stupid English course. I only write papers for this course, nothing else. And it's all gotta be done in APA style which I'm not used to, I've only ever done MLA. Just...after I get done with those papers, I just don't have the inspiration to write as much...if that makes sense. I'll get back into the groove though soon! I promise! Anyway, thank you all for being patient, and I will update as soon as I can. It might take some time, mainly because I don't like rushing when writing new chapters. If it's rushed, it won't be as detailed and good as it possibly can be! Let me know if you liked this chapter, it's okay if you didn't, but be civil and polite in your reviews at least. We're all mature here. (Some of us anyway...) There's always that one reviewer that's just so rude over the dumbest things...ANYWAY! Enough ranting! Thanks for reading! Love you guys!
