First of all I have to say 'thank you' to all the readers who had been – and still are – following my stories. It's always nice to see that people are still following my work, though I'm really lazy at the moment. Things will get better, I promise.

"New start" is one of my personal favorites, which was the reason for me to rewrite the story. I haven't changed much of the plot, only some details around Honoka and a lot of the dialogues between her and Kakashi. I figured it was much too childish for them – no one says that adults always have to act grown up – but I wasn't overly satisfied with the story. In my head it all appeared much better, so I bugged y-in-flame – god knows how I thank you for aiding me – and we worked on the story again. Slowly the old chapters will be replaced and if my wonderful beta stays with me, the sequel will be redone as well.

Again thanks to all of you who read my stories; it's nice to see that I'm able to entertain you.
