Okay so this started out as a class assignment in English 2. You can thank Mr. Lauber for giving me this assignment. The first chapter will be the one-shot that I wrote in class. After that, I will try to make an actual story line for 9/11. And I have now dedicated this story to @climbingjade51 . She has supported me throughout the story from the beginning, and I hope that she helps more people, maybe ones that I guide to her guidance. (I know that made no sense, but bear with me, I'm really sad right now). You are more of the reason why I have kept writing this, even writing through the pain. I only ask one thing from you: NEVER change. Cover by @climbingjade51. Go follow her as well. I keep writing because people like her support me and understand what I go through. Never change, climbingjade51 . Top #s #1 in twintowers #11 in 11 #307 in percabeth #21 in alexusap
