Hey everybody. I have some news.

Let's get the bad news out of the way first. I have decided that I am no longer going to update this story. The reason for that being that the story isn't turning out the way I hoped it would. There are certain things I wanted to see happen that I can't think I can do. The reason for that is simple.

I realize now that having Akira attend U.A. was actually counterproductive to what I wanted. When I introduced him, I had intended for him to be a person who is immune to the hero-worship that plagues the world of My Hero. He would be the straight man that would call bullshit on bullshit. He's less inclined to forgive people or let them get away with things just because they're heroes. Not because he's an ass or anything like that. He's just disillusioned.

Instead, because I want to copy some of the same narratives as other MHA stories I read, I decided to put him U.A. The only reason I gave is that he's in it for the money and freedom. Which, now that I think about it, are pretty shallow reasons. And it actually goes against what I wanted, even if I didn't know it at the time.

Having realized this, I can't continue writing Scarlet Scarab the way I have been.

Don't despair though, there is good news. I've decided to remake the story. It's not going to just be a rewrite, I intend to change the plot quite a bit. The changes will be evident in the first chapter and will continue until the end. It will not be the same story I was trying to write. It will be something that I think will be more appropriate.

It should come out soon.

Until then, I have decided to open up the plot that I originally had for adoption. If anyone wants to write a story about a Scarab Warrior attending U.A, or where Izuku gets a scarab, for right ahead. I don't own any rights to these ideas, so there are open. I know Fire Slash is writing a story where Izuku is Blue Beetle, so you guys can check that out. But anyone who wants to make their own story with this premise is welcome to.

Anyway, let me know what you guys think, and I will see you all next time.

Bye!
