Author's Note:

Hello to whoever might read this after me being MIA for years:

I am so sorry that I never wrote this note, and that I never finished this story. I always had intentions of finishing it, even when life got really busy. For a while I kind of forgot about it, but it would resurface in my mind every so often as something I should do. The truth is, I just kind of fell out of obsession with this series. I won't say I fell out of love with it, because that's just not true. I don't think I'll ever not love this series in some way because it played such a big role in my life for so long. But, after reading Allegiant, and seeing the movies that have been released, my obsession with this series started to fade and has been since then. I didn't dislike Allegiant for the major event that happens (you all know what I'm talking about), but it just didn't feel like the rest of the series that I had enjoyed so much. It didn't seem to fall in line with the rest of the story that had been placed out so far, and for that reason I didn't enjoy it. The big thing didn't even bother me, I thought it completely fit in with her character and made perfect sense, I just didn't see where the rest of the plot came from. I didn't have all these thoughts when I just finished the series, but it has been in my mind for a while now, and I finally had to address my absence.

I wish I could muster my way through finishing this story, I really do. I feel like I failed by never finishing it, but I just don't have the same passion for it that I used to have. I hope that you guys have enjoyed the parts I did write, and if anyone wants to continue writing it, please let me know, I would definitely consider handing it off to someone with my permission.

If you got to the end of this note, I thank you. Thank you to everyone who read this story, it means a lot to me. I randomly decided to post this after starting it in history class one day, and I never thought I would share it with anyone, much less that anyone would read it. When I got the first comments, I was so happy. I had never shared my writing with anyone besides my schoolwork. The feeling was amazing, so thank you so much to everyone who put a smile on my face throughout this process. I wish I could finish this story for you.

Much love!
