If anybody's reading this, I'd like to apologize that I'll be cancelling the Kingdom Hearts Remake series. I just lost the motivation. Mrfipp, I'll admit the original characters Jerry and Elwina are inspired by your own KH OCs Tom and Tanith (for the rest of you who don't know who they are, read his stories Kingdom Hearts III: Hearts of Gold and Kingdom Hearts IV: All's End).

His story was also what led me to creating the concept of the Story Crew, which has made its way to my other stories, specifically the Shisno Chronicles ones, which led to my now-cancelled tale The Last Airbender, and my current works Blazing Sword and the Friendship is Magic series. You see, him using fourth-wall breaking to explain things didn't sit well with me, and neither did things happening going forever unexplained, so I came up with them as a means of explaining all that.

And then I got further fascinated by the idea and expanded on them, eventually giving them a 'world' of their own (named Hadithi, which is Swahili for "story"), a rival (the unimaginatively-named Book Troop), multiple facilities, ad entanglements with other multiversal realms/organizations like the Time-Space Administration Bureau (Lyrical Nanoha) and Kandrakar (W.I.T.C.H.). Actually, I haven't mentioned the latter in any of my stories yet, nor do I plan on making a Shisno Chronicles story out of any of them. It's tough enough as it is now that I have a new mini-project titled Crossover Huntresses (and Huntsmen).

You can find the basic information on this theoretical organization (or is it?) by looking up "Story Crew Emblem" in deviantART, and additional expansive info on it can be found in the various chapters of my main story Shisno Chronicles: Friendship is Magic and its sequels.

Here's what could've been if I had continued this:

- Sora and 'I' would have our fight after the third encounter with the Replicas, but this time 'I' would've won, only for Sora to then knock me out after the battle.

- Florina and the others would be experiencing 'phantom limbs' more and memories of their past in Neopia.

- There would've been more in-depth conversations between the Organization members and the Rangers.

- More can be seen in my farewell chapter in my KHR3 story.

In the end, while it was a very good ride, I just don't feel obligated to continue, even though my later tales connect to this, which coerced me to keep on going. In the end, my fatigue for this won out. As a parting gift, I'll present to you the cards that would've appeared at KHR:CoM:R aside from the ones already in the game.

Magic Cards:

Dispel
Charm
Disable
Petrify
Slow
Haste

Summon Cards:

XR - The robot barrages enemies with laser attacks.
Flit - The hummingbird flies around, dropping small HP orbs upon impact with enemies.
Lumiere - The candelabra fires at enemies in a wide area, inflicting fire damage.
Bahamut - The dragon appears from above an charges a small flare before launching it downward, damaging enemies only.

Enemy Cards:

Heffalump (Magic Bracer) - Stops enemies from breaking any magic cards used. Lasts 20 attacks.
Windelle (Friend Bracer) - Stops enemies from breaking any friend cards used. Lasts 20 attacks.
Yi (Fire Resist) - Reduce all fire damage taken from enemies. Lasts two reloads.

Xin (Dark Resist) - Reduce damage taken from all Heartless (but less so compared to Geng's and Jia's cards). Lasts two reloads.

And any further Enemy Cards that only have a Roman Umeral would've represented an Organization member that doesn't appear in Castle Oblivion.
