OBJECTION!!!!! Spike's Sacrifice was completely Unnecessary
Chapter 7: *IMPORTANT AUTHOR'S NOTE*
Previous ChapterAs I mentioned in my Previous blog a few of my stories are in need of re-writing, before I can truly continue them. I also said that I will explain the problem with each story, starting with OBJECTION!!!!!! Spike's sacrifice was completely unnecessary.
This story is definitely in need of a brand-new coat of paint for many reasons and had been for some time.
I'll admit. When I first started this story, I didn't exactly have a clear idea on the direction I wanted it to go. In fact, it was supposed to be shorter, like three chapters or so, but I knew I could do better and put in more effort, which is exactly what I did.
I wanted to do what I can to make the story really interesting, and ideas I came up with were doing just that but...... That's pretty much sums up the main issue with this story. Too many ideas thrown in with no clear narrative to the story as a whole.
Allow me to explain.
One of my ideas involved with Raven talking to a mysterious figure whose identity was never revealed, as well as another mysterious figure watching from the background. I had long since decided to cancel this idea, Click Here to learn a little more about it.
I will go into more details about this in my next blog, as I'm trying to get through this one as quickly as I can.
Just know that this sub plot had no major influence on the story and just ended up being an unnecessary thing that I wanted gone. Because as my story evolved it made the sub plot completely pointless, for I just wanted to focus solely on the main plot.

The next issue involves the brand-new direction my story is going. For you see one of my readers really really really really really wanted to see the confrontation between Spike and Chrysalis, but I was nowhere near that point in the main story. So, I written a side story called HOLD IT 2: How The hell are you still alive.
Originally it was supposed to be a small non-canon sub plot, but I took it too seriously, all thanks to my ever-growing ideas. It's because of this that the ideas I originally had for the main story has drastically changed.
There were already many reasons why I thought about re-writing this story and HOLD IT 2 was the final nail in the coffin.
Between, canceled sub plots, no clear direction, updating pointless chapters, rewriting a chapter just so things will tie with the new direction going forward. I'm sorry but this story is an absolute mess and is in need of an extreme makeover.
I can't on good conscious continue this story in the state it's in now. Which is why I will cancel this version and start again fresh. And don't worry it won't be a simple copy and paste thing. Some stuff will be brought into the new version, but all in all it will be entirely brand new. I wasn't exaggerating when I said I'm giving this story an extreme makeover and this time I'm doing things right.
