A/N: I first want to say thank you all for reading Silence. I've been writing this for nearly four years, well atleast its four years old, but I know I was gone for a good year or so. But really, thank you all for your patience and understanding.

I really struggled writing for the time I was gone. It was hard for me to type and nothing came up. I was mainly trying to do art instead and it took most of my creative space in my poor brain.

I know it's super frustrating when a story is never updated and I apologize for that. I thank you all for your wonderful comments and critiques. I also thank the silent readers, you don't go unnoticed.

I first started Silence because I wanted to just write the perfect story. Well..that kinda happened. If I'm honest, this story was going to be much darker. Believe it or not, I'm not a huge fan on fluff. But it was because of the readers and comments, I shifted the story. I still left those dark tones inside (as you can probably tell with the backstory of Sasuke and Itachi), but I am happy with how my story came out. I looked back, rereading my story and I somewhat cringed..but atleast I feel I've improved. Also I saw a ton of grammar errors and words that don't even make sense, but I will just leave them to remind myself that I am bad at double checking my work.

I never ever planned on this story even being this long. This was my first story/fanfic I have ever wrote in my life. I didn't think I had the capability to do it, but it was thanks to you that I was able to keep going. I had lots of fun. I was really in the mood these last couple chapters as you can tell I updated quite close to each other. I hope to finish my other fanfics and then I can continue on the sequel. I am really excited to write about Kurama and Itachi as it was very fun to write about them.

It feels kinda weird that this will be the last update anyone will receive for this story. I am really grateful I had this opportunity to share my story with everyone. I hope this somehow inspired others to try out writing or other creative activities. If you do have any random questions, feel free to PM me. I might post them on my profile if there's any.

But thank you again, I can finally mark this as completed and I will be back with Kurama and Itachi!
