Two years…

Two fucking long years and at long last I can say this….

I'M BACK MOTHERFUCKERS!

Forgive me for the delay, I do apologize for being in hiatus after so long, my prolonged time has been due to a lot of things going on in life, especially catching up on my other story Cry of Raiju with my Co-authors.

Though I had a lot to think about during these two years, with writing, school, friends, and work (not to mention the incessant bullshit that I always come across in life); these things were my priority, but at the same time I had made sacrifices on what I had put more effort into and thus I sacrificed the amount of writing I put into for not only myself, but for my readers.

For those who stayed loyal and pressed on for another chapter- I apologize full heartedly for such a long delay and I thank you for sticking with me for all these years. Your support on my stories and for my writing has been nothing, but motivation for me to press on as not only a writer in fanfiction, but as a writer in freelance as well.

Which is why the news I have to tell you is of great importance; I have been signed by an publishing company that is interested in one of my original pieces that I sent to them about half a year, they requested an extended draft not that long ago (which I sent), and wanted to make a possible deal to make my short story into a book to be published both hard copy and as an e-read!

This is something that I have been looking forward to for some time, for that I want to thank you as readers for motivating me to become a good writer, but even then I have things to work on as a writer and in life, things I need to do before I even start my book. Yet I have decided I will post a sample of my book later on in fiction press if any of you readers are interested, be it on here or fiction press.

Onto other news

1. Ashes among the leave on hiatus until I replay the entire trilogy again or play Andromeda. This is because while I know the background of the anthology, I want to get more depth into it before I continue and doing that along with building a connecting history line with the Shinobi race, as well as a bit more originality for you all.

2. I plan on making another story in the future, but that story will be slowly updated as I work on JOA and Raiju.

Now for this story….

1. I have decided that the pairing is going to be Naruto x OC in part two of this story

2. Part one (this story) is four chapters away from completion and that excludes this chapter.

3. I will present a lot of changes in this story. I plan on editing all the chapters aside from the crossover that kitsune and I have done before presenting the new chapter I have available for you all. So think of it as major revision for part one such as there will be no Jiraiya and maybe Gaara. I am thinking on strictly deciding that Itachi will be the only one to come to Earthland. Why do ask? Two reasons is because Itachi is by far one of the most fundamentally developed characters in the story, I think he could work with not only progressing Naruto in chakra as one of his teachers, but a great ally as well. The other reason is simple, because I realized that I don't want that many people from Narutoverse in this story, even if it is only a current handful at the moment. SO, I shall remaster part one, again not restarting, just reworking and editing.

4. Part two will be more focused more on Naruto and characters that will be involved around him, which you will find out later on. He will take place in some canon arcs, but not have a significant role aside from two.

5. Naruto will be consistent of an anti-hero, grey or neutral natured, but he consists to have both a black and white perspective along with a worldly grey perspective. Will he continue to kill? Hell yes. Will I make it gory as hell? Fuck yes, this was my major story for you all and I intend to finish it.

To the sensible reviewers

For those who critique my grammar with respect have nothing to fear, I plan on making my grammar become more in depth and improve on it when I can, though of course I need a full time beta for writing as well to edit and work with me on said issue too. So thanks for the positive critique.

To the guest reviewers

All I am hearing is gibberish in your mouth, mixed with curse words. The way you type your reviews is like how a chimpanzee would either eat or throw his own shit in front of people at a zoo and you are the ape. Either you are children that can't deal with a story being delayed or a writer to cowardly to actually have the balls to talk to another writer in confidence. Seriously people, throw your salt out to the sea, cause I am not getting all teary eyed over hear for people who are too insecure and try to harass others to feel better about themselves, which it doesn't help you at all.

This note will be deleted when I place another note for post edit and for the new chapter for you all.

Thank you for all the support.
