And that's the end of that! My first whole story, done. I really enjoyed it writing it, even if those stubborn writer's blocks got in the way sometimes. I hope you liked reading it as much as I like creating it, and, of course, thanks for stomaching my various spelling errors.

Here's some stuff I thought you might find interesting, or things/connections you might have missed. If you'd rather not be bothered, go ahead and just skip to the last paragraph.

-"Sudoar" means "should push forward" in Latin, just came across that in my English class. At any rate, it makes what I had intended to be random name choosing to have even more effect on the story, as Sudoar always wanted to "push" forward his plan, even though towards the end it's revealed he's not sure if he "should." Again, completely unintentional name choice, just something completely coincidental.

-Sudoar and Juruko were supposed to mirror Hashirama-Madara in the sense of conflicting peace ideals, and then represent Sasuke-Naruto in their rivalry/clash.

-Also, towards the end between Sudoar and Sasuke's fight, Sasuke has like hallucinations or visions of someone that looks like him running at him. This was foreshadowing for his fight with Naruto, in that he sees himself charging at Naruto (in the vision, Sasuke sees himself as Naruto). This strengthens the connection of Sudoar-Sasuke, and Sasuke seeing his mad desire for revenge/completing his goal in Sudoar, though he doesn't understand.

-In case you were getting frantic in a search and have completely missed this,, Sudoar and Juruko are NOT actual characters; they are made up. I had someone PM me about this so I thought I'd just bring it up.

-Bioto is Obito. If the explanation towards the end was unclear, this was my interpretation of what Obito was doing in between the gap between the Nine-Tails attack on Konoha and Shippuden, and also my take on how he got his early "Tobi" self. If you're a good detective, you might've noticed all the hints I dropped throughout the story to point to Bioto and Obito being the same. The most obvious clue would be the Bioto is just Obito mixed up, just like the way Tobi is.

Now, this is of course the end of this story. However, I'm one of those guys that really liked the original Team 7, and of course I am therefore a huge fan of both Sasuke and Naruto specifically. So, my next story will be a Team 7 adventure as well, just one of the many possible ones they might have had It will NOT be on the grand scale as this one; I had no intention of this leading up to be a "save the world" deal, and that's the reason why I really wanted to drop this, because it seemed so unrealistic for the Narutoverse

As you can see, I still powered through, and while I still hate what it became, it was still nice to write.

At any rate, the next story will come out this week. Again, thanks for reading, liking, favorite-ing, and reviewing/PMing me what you thought. If you still thought some things were unanswered, please PM me and I will add it to the list of stuff that I said above.

Ciao for now.
