Hey guys, it has been a while hasn't it? To be frank I just kind of stopped writing, some events have happened that I won't go into detail, and I have been in college for two years now. I am going to be starting a poll on my page about my stories. I will be continuing one of them, only one. I, however, am going to be completely rewriting them, as reading back to them I have found my storytelling skills atrocious. So I will be posting the poll and I will be closing it on Friday evening, expect the first chapter to be posted on either Saturday or Sunday evening.

I will give a forewarning, my tastes have changed when it comes to writing and you may find my stories to become darker and less child-friendly. MY story(ies) from this point onward will be dealing with very real issues, suicide, PTSD, mental illness, rape, murder, physical and mental abuse, sex and slave trafficking, and that ilk. I will not be sugar coating anything I do and will be typing every thought of mine.

A few ground rules to lay down:

A. The Naruto I will be writing based on what story is chosen will be less childlike and idiotic, especially if it is the Darkness Falls that is chosen.

B. Hiruzen will be less of a grandfather figure and more of a military leader. He is the Hokage, the General, he may be softer than Danzo, but he was Hokage for a very long time for good reason.

As long as you all are accepting of these two points you will find that my stories may grow on you and you may even like the darker side of the stories. I may post a one-shot every once in a while if I am struggling with a chapter for the main story, this may or may not pertain to the story itself, or it may be for some random idea I had come up with. I, however, will not be expanding upon those one-shot(s) I will write and should you wish to take them and develop them into a story, go ahead.

It has been a long tie, and I apologize for breaking my promises time and time again. I will be striving to do better, but I do warn you once my school starts again in August I may be pulled down to writing only a chapter every one or two weeks. or now I am striving for a single chapter every two to three days. I should forewarn you that I shall be incorporating some of the skills I have learned from my classes, such as Psychology, and Public Speaking, to develop some of the parts of my story. There are some speeches that may seem preachy and some conversations that may seem Idealistic, but remember, I will be writing mainly OC for the characters.

This has been Alpha, I will be changing my name sometime in the future or making a new account for the story, I shall let you all know once I have the results from the poll. I look forward to entertaining you, young and old, and shall do my best to keep you enthralled in my stories and the lore in to which they pertain.
