Okay... I'm back. Well sort of. I got a new laptop at the end of September but never updated due to revising for my mock exams. So I'm sorry and I know that I'm a failure of an author but here is an update. 

Just saying, I have no idea when the next one will be up. It may be a few days, or a few months. I'm sorry in advance.
