I will not be continuing this story in its current form as it no longer aligns with my vision. However, the rewrite will not change the core of the story—the MC will still be Ben 10K with Anodite powers, starting in the year 2000. This is not a new version, just a refinement of what's already here.
The reason for the rewrite is that the old chapters feel disjointed, some plot points made earlier are unnecessary, and the flow of the story doesn't feel as strong as I want it to be. Think of this as me revising the story rather than changing it.
I have already finished Chapter 2 of the new draft, but I will only begin uploading once I have at least 150,000 words or 15 chapters completed. Please be patient as I work to make this the best version of itself.
Additionally, my other story will also be rewritten and will start reuploading on Monday. That story is not my main focus, but it will still be written with care—it just won't have a set schedule.
Thank you all for your support. If things go well, I might finish the first 15 chapters of the rewrite by the end of the month.
