This is such a powerful piece of writing and I hope that you finish it someday.

Since he killed Naruto (following the instructions of his brother to have their eyes and so to defeat him), Sasuke has the Magekyou Sharigan.

Well, the version of Kishimoto, Sasuke got it after killing Itachi, but here is different ... That's very important and it would be interesting to read. ;)

So... now Orochimaru wants Naruto. I asked myself if he doesn't will have a psychotic break if he discover about the longevity of the Uzumaki Clan.

Great story!

Ohmigod.

This has got to be one of the most beautiful stories I've ever read. I love the way you write ( I must have a thing for present tense styles XD) and ... just breathtaking, really. And the plot..

Naruto came back to life o.O

and I like the way you give us insight into everyone else's lives, and how they're either clearly okay or clearly demented, like Sasuke. I especially liked the summary- 'goes horribly, horribly right'. Wasn't expecting that

Anyway, I really hope you do finish this! Definitely amazing, well written fic.

(I also might really really wanna see Sasuke and Naruto meet again... :P)

Thanks for writing!

I am so so so glad I was bored tonight. Well, I'm not anymore, but you get my drift. This is such a thrilling story! I was confused at first, but I guess you expected that. I am so full of squee right now that I don't even know what the heck to type. All I can say for now is that I hope that you aren't abandoning this and that a new chapter comes soon~

No pressure or anything though, because I know RL can be a bitch. :

Creepy-Fun, but I want more of what Hinata thinks... any chance I can get a brief Nar/Hin out of this?

Goddessa: "Me want more! RAWRR."

Interesting plot. You have quite the unique writing style, although it does seem a bit more inclined towards one-shots. I hope you update eventually.

My gods your penchant for description left me breathless. I hesitated to read this because I saw it was likely abandoned, but now I know I'll glory in the agony that is sure to come when I reach the end.

Anon E. Mous - I'm so sorry! I got that particular proverb from a book I had about angels, and I didn't think to check the the source it came from. I apologize if I offended anyone.

Um...speaking as a Jew here..we don't have archangels. Or any angels, for that matter. Doesn't matter, your story gave me chills in it's eery, morbid beauty. Is the last part Kakashi and Rin? And poor baby-who-died..Sakura's?

Okay, my thoughts so far on the fic:

-Lee is a bit off in his speech. He uses very polite speech (never slang or contractions) and usually sounds very, shall we say, aggressive.

-Despite the foreshadowing, I didn't predict Naruto coming back from the grave, vis the Kyuubi's help or at all. Good one.

-I find Kabuto's homosexuality quite hilarious :D

-I can't believe Tsunade accepted the thought that Naruto was dead. I'd think that since he means so much to her, that she would've died from exhaustion trying to raise him from the dead if necessary.

and finally, excuse my language, but

-Why the hell have you not updated a wonderful story like this? It's effing fantastic, how could you abandon it? I can see the last update was nearly three years ago, but I swear if you update it, you'll get readers again.

Thus ends my review. Update, damnit! XD

cool. Very cool. twisted and enjoyable

A very interesting take on the Sasuke Retrieval theme if I do say so myself. *heh* Sasuke...can be so dangerous can't he? I'm defintely watching this because I have NO idea on what's going to happen next. And I'm surprised at myself too. This is VERY different from what I usually read *sasunaru fluff cough* but that's a good thing! I like trying out new things. I can't wait to see what happens next! Keep on writing when you can please!

This has been one of my favorite Naruto stories ever. The plot is highly intruiguing and I wish you will someday continue it.

As I read this story, I couldn't help but feel that the writing style and flow seemed vaguely familiar... This story reminded me greatly of Alice Sebold's 'The Lovely Bones'. I was convinced that, by the movement of the story, this fic will revolve around how the characters and the world will progress or, in some cases, become stagnant with Naruto's death. Alas, the ending part of this chapter has proved me wrong. Now I'm definitely curious as to how you're going to manipulate this piece further.

It's not as bad as you say! it's really actually pretty good!
