I did not spend a whole month making a new cover for it to show up blurry on Wattpad.
I’m going crazy.

We so back.
Sorry for the delay, the combination of AP Exams and end of the year senior stuff didn’t leave much time for me to write lately. Hopefully I can finish this story before college starts, but that’ll require quite a lot of grinding. Thank you to those who have been reading since I began writing and those who left questions. It’s been a pleasure writting on this site, and I hope I can see this through to the very end.
That being said,
Don’t forget to keep shining brightly, my little stars.

Somewhere in between worlds…
A tall figure strides toward a massive screen. There was a control panel beneath it, and an array of buttons, levers, and keys filled the panel.
The massive screen commanded a sort of godly presence. The figure felt as if weight began pressing down on his shoulders as he approached. It almost seemed like the slightest misuse of the panel might set everything ajar and cause the end of the world.
The figure paused as a robotic voice spoke out.
“Welcome to the In-Between. Who might you be? I don’t usually get company in this white abyss.”
“I— I don’t know who I am.”
“That's strange. Most people do. Have you sustained any neural trauma?”
“Not that I remember… though I do feel like a piece of me is missing.”
“Hmh. I might be able to help you with that. I’m I.T.D., and all information that travels between worlds goes through me. Maybe a file in my archives can help you.”
“That… would be very helpful.”
“Great! Come closer you’ll just have to navigate all the branches, and I’ll help decompress it.”
“Okay… how do I do that?”
“Just hit the 17th button to the right of the panel. That should automatically transport you to the directory.”
“You’ve got to be kidding me.”

“I apologize for the inconvenience. My creator would rather create shortcuts than do everything manually. That does result in this though, a mess of levers and buttons.”
“Okay, found it.” The figure reached out and pressed the button. It lit up and let out a little chime before the screen changed to an interface with stacks upon stacks of files.
“Okay, now I need a data sample. Please activate the 9th lever, then the 27th button, and then place your hand onto the sampling device.”
“Wait, wait, wait. The 9th lever… and the 26th button…”
“No sir, I said the 27th—”
The 26th button sank down into the control panel, chiming a different time to signify a received action.
“What!?”
“Compressing data, this action will take awhile and quite a bit of computing power, so please stand on hold. The reply system will temporarily be unavailable.”
“Hey! Wait, cancel! Cancel!”
Unsurprisingly, the machine did not reply. It only showed a spinning gear in the middle of a grey screen.
“… shit.”

Sorry for the delay… it’s college application season and I gotta get all of my stuff in. Enjoy the little snack today while I grind out the rest.
Oh yeah.
Don't forget to keep shining bright

Also, that chapter is just about only amount of spice you’ll be seeing for a long time lmao
Cringesad
Okay, I'll be making some adjustments and grammar corrections to previous chapters and cleaning it up a little. Everything will be basically the same as before.
Cringesad
Two chapters in the same day? Unheard of. In all honesty, they were both pretty short, but what a way to come back, right?
Cringesad
Sorry for the drought of chapters, we’ll be back in a week. Hold out for just a while longer, okay?

Is it just me or is this little story #10 in the Chara tag?!

If you’re behind me, how come this crate hasn’t broken yet?
