Chapter Note:
Ahhh! Glad you made it to the end of the chapter! I will be uploading a new chapter each week, and there are ten chapter total to this book ;). If you enjoyed this chapter let me know if you want to see the rest! Thanks for suggesting that I did this, I worked really hard to make the script. And even though it won't become a roleplay, I'm glad it's becoming something else.
