So far, in my absence away from Wattpad, I've been trying to work on updating, but it's still kinda tough. But I've also been getting super amazing ideas for new Naruto stories (If you want to start reading my Naruto stories or know someone who likes Naruto, please refer them to my stories or try watching it some day!) Anyways, there's also a new original I'm thinking of writing. I'll leave tiny excerpts and summaries below, so I wanna know if any of these should  be published or not! I really need your guys' opinions for when I get back to publishing things. If you're not interested, then that's okay. But if you ARE interested in hearing an Update on my Updates, then keep reading 'til the end!

Scene 1 - Take 43

"Sasuke!!"

Naruto Uzumaki shouted as he sprinted through the hallways of Orochimaru's lair, desperately looking for his best friend. He glanced forward and saw a flash of light at the end of the tunnel. He knew it. He just knew it. This is--

"CUT!!"

"Gah! What now?!" Naruto shrieked as he skidded in an attempt to stop running, but failed, thus tripping clumsily on his own toes and falling face first into the dirt.

"You need to show more anger when you yell his name, Naruto..." Director Kimashi Maruta emphasized.

"Well how am I supposed to make it sound different from all the other times I've said it?!" Naruto yelled in anger as he sat up and wiped his face on his sleeve.

"Come on, Naruto. We've been at this for forty-five takes already... Haven't you gotten this down already?"

"Uh, actually, forty-three... But who's counting?" Kakashi shrugged from behind Kimashi.

He clenched his jaw and turned to look at Kakashi, "Do you want to lose your job?"

"Well, even if you wanted to, you couldn't fire me. The fans love me." Kakashi smirked underneath his blue mask.

Kimashi glared at Kakashi, "I hate when you're right." Then he turned back to his star, "alright. Let's just cut to the meeting so we can get back to the village already. Whoever created the set here succeeded at making it creepy..."

Naruto sighed as he walked out the tunnel and stood right outside it.

Cameraman Danny Lee positioned the camera, "Alright. Scene 1, take 44, and...  Action!"

Naruto ran out, "Sakura!" He gazed from his pink-haired teammate, then slowly turned to stare at none other than Sasuke Uchiha. They stared at each other--

"CUT! NARUTO!!" Kimashi yelled.

"WHAT NOW?!" Naruto growled.

"You two don't stare at each other the whole time you know... You have a line..." Kimashi rubbed his temples.

"I... I do?! Since when?!" Naruto stared at him blankly.

"We made a change yesterday." Sai explained, "since Sakura is supposed to be so shocked, she couldn't really say anything. So you're saying it now."

Sakura put her hand on Naruto's shoulder, "Where were you yesterday, anyways?"

"I had no idea we had a meeting yesterday... I was told recording started today." Naruto replied.

"And I wasn't wrong. We are recording." Sasuke shouted from the top of the giant stone bowl Naruto, Sakura, Sai, and Yamato stood in, "but we also had a meeting yesterday, which I also told you about..."

"Wh-what?!" Naruto stared at him blankly as well.

"You know what? Let's just keep going. You know now, and let's just please go ahead and finish this scene already and get the episode over with..." Kimashi groaned, This is going to be a long season...

"Naruto - Road to Sasuke" - Naruto Shippuden
Summary: Based off of the worlds of Naruto Shippuden and Naruto Road to Ninja, when Sasuke Uchiha and his team discover a sealed tomb, their first action was to break the seal and release whatever energy was inside it. Upon opening the tomb, Sasuke is then pulled into a Limited Tsukyomi and transported to a world he never thought he'd find himself in. Now he's faced with the ultimate task of living a new life with a different family, different Hokage, different group of friends, and ultimately different enemies.

• • •

"What the hell..." Sasuke groaned as he sat up, rubbing his aching head, "Why do I feel like I got hit by a bus, and all from a flash of light..." Sasuke's voice suddenly trailed off as he began taking in his surroundings. "What the..."

He was no longer in the cave. In fact, he was in a bed in a room he didn't even recognize. He slowly pulled off the blanket and looked around, "th-this isn't my room..."

"Good morning."

Oh crap... Sasuke internally froze, his heart stopped, and when he turned around, there was some random girl in his bed.

"Wh-what's going on?!"

"That hangover getting to you, Baby?"

Who's calling me that?! Wait... This all makes sense now... The headache... The sudden urge to puke... Was... Was i drinking?! I need to get out of here, wherever I am.

"Come on Sasuke, it's still early." The girl smiled and patted the empty space on the bed drowsily.

"Ew, no..." Sasuke muttered, "I'm sorry, I have to go." He grabbed his shirt from off the floor, then ran out the door.

"WAIT!"

Sasuke heard her yelling his name, but he didn't want to go back. As soon as he stood outside, the morning sun hitting his face, he gasped at where he found himself, "how the hell did I get back here?!"

He was at the Hidden Leaf Village.

"Hey, Sasuke. Where were you last night? Don't tell me you were with a girl again..."

Sasuke's heart stopped when he heard the voice he recognized, "is that..."

He turned around to see his brother's best friend, "Why are you looking at me like that? As if I were gone forever or something... The mission wasn't all that bad."

"Shisui..." Sasuke's eyes filled with emotion, "How..." He looked around, then gasped when he saw a few children and a handful of couples going about their daily routines. What truly caught his eye, however, was the clan symbol on their backs, Uchiha?! But... They were...

"Are you underestimating my strength? Well, you and your brother do have a little bit of an advantage, I got to admit."

Wait... Itachi... Is he...?! Sasuke was completely speechless. Then his eyes wandered away from Shisui, then saw the Hokage faces. He felt the blood in his face drain out, "Wait... Is that..."

"Hm? The Hokage? Man, you seem pretty clueless today, Sasuke. Did you get brainwashed last night or something? Man you smell like alcohol. Don't worry, I won't tell."

Tell who? It's not like I have anyone to... Wait... If the Uchiha clan are alive... Does that mean...

"Lord Orochimaru."

Sasuke shook his head in disbelief, "Orochimaru... Is the Fifth Hokage?"

"Man, you really were brainwashed..." Shisui ruffled Sasuke's hair, "it's okay, Buddy. That's what happens when you get too drunk."

When did I start drinking? I've never drunk anything in my life... Sasuke groaned.

"Hey, Shisui. The art expo is starting in a few. Hm."

"What?!" Sasuke turned to see four recognizable figures walk up to him, "you're kidding..."

Before him stood none other than art enthusiasts Deidara, Sasori, Hidan... And Tobi in tow.

"I didn't know you were going." Sasori turned to Sasuke in surprise.

I-I didn't know you guys were here without anyone knowing... "What are you guys doing here?! They're gonna..."

"Huh? Whattaya mean?" Tobi gave him a weird look.

"Obito, stop wearing that stupid mask. You look like an idiot."

Everything going on around him already had Sasuke all shaken up, and for Sasuke, that's pretty hard to do. But nothing could shake him up more than the sound of Itachi's voice.

"Welcome to Gothica" - Original
Summary: Another original story. Dannica Swiney is a college drop-out with truly nothing better to do. So her main goal in life? Run from humanity. She's constantly on the run, being chased by everyone in New York. Why? She's what most may call 'a criminal'. She only calls it her everyday life. Now, there's a threat she never thought she'd run into. So alongside her posse of New York runaway teens, they try to find a way out of the city and out of the clutches of her pursuer while facing life's problems in the thick of it all.

• • •

"Hey kid! Get back here!"

I've always been what some may call 'a criminal'. But I don't know what you all see. I'm just going about my life, the same way you all brush your teeth in the morning. Well, at least most of you do, I hope. Maybe I'm just not like any of you. Well, let's see... Did you grow up being hated by everyone around you? Probably not. Did you grow up with your parents around? Probably, most likely. Well guess what. I grew up alone. I didn't have any friends, and my parents were never around. They left me when I was little. What I'm trying to emphasize here is that... I've basically been like this all my life. Don't judge. It's who I was born to be. The criminal life is in my blood, and I love it. Do you know that elated and high feeling whenever you're with your boyfriend, girlfriend, lover, whatever? Well, that's how I feel when I'm running through the damp streets of New York. I've lived her all my life, and theft is what I live for. In fact, I've even been paid to steal things for other people. You want a candy bar from a gas station? Easy. A pack of colored pencils from an art store? Child's play. (I did that when I was five and still have those pencils today.) Don't even get me started on an iPhone I stole from Best Buy. In fact, I still use that phone. How about that. That's how I make my living and how I'm still alive and breathing today. But really, if I had a choice, I'd want to do this my whole life. But only if I had that choice. And I don't. I get this fabulous life by default. Now isn't that--

"Dannie! You paying attention?"

Dannie snapped back into reality and mindlessly nodded, not even realizing who was talking.

"Leave her, Alex. She's hopeless."

"Yeah, but her part in this is the most important and the most risky. If she doesn't pull this off, the plan could go extremely wrong."

"Uh, plan?" Dannie tilted her head in question. She looked from her closest and one of her only friends, Alex Spencer, then looked at her other good friend, Ben Spear.

"I knew it." Ben sighed and shook his head in disappointment, Dannie pouting her lips in response.

Alex sighed and grabbed her shoulder, "So it's simple. Bennie will go in as distraction, then you and I will go to the back door. I'll watch your back as you go in, nab it, and bring it out. Got it?"

"That's it? Piece of cake." Dannie shrugged her hand from her shoulder, "what about Ethan?"

"He's out with Liamm." Alex replied, "while Pryston is on some random errand, she never said."

"Great. We're missing our tech expert... Who's gonna disable the cameras and alarm system?"

"Barb is already there. She'll text us when it's ready." Alex explained, a wave of relief rushed through Dannie's mind. This was all easy to her, but if they were caught, then that wouldn't be fun.

In her lifetime, Dannie's already been caught at least ten times, and she wasn't going on her eleventh.

"Don't worry. Even if we do get caught, we know a move or two, right?" Alex nudged Dannie.

"Shut up. They won't catch us." Dannie denied, "with me around, we won't fail."

"That totally explains everything." Ben added, "through you, we've been able to get a lot of stuff."

"Anyways, we'll be heading out in a few more minutes. You can go ahead. We'll catch up after. Meet us just outside the parking lot."

"Good deal." Dannie said as she slipped the hood of her gray hood over her head and ran through the complex alley-way that they had called 'The Philmore', after the last name of one of their group members.

Our group... Dannie told herself as she walked down the sidewalk, the moon reflecting off the puddles. It had to be eleven at night, The Forgotten... Hm. Ironic name, but true. The eight of us have the same things in common. We don't have families. And anyone that did just ran from home. We're all college dropouts. But you see, now we're all each other's family. The youngest of us, Benjamin Spear, is eighteen, while the oldest of us, Jason Philmore, is twenty, and also the one who started this group and is the leader. Of course, naturally, the leader has to be the oldest. Anyways, there's me, Jason Philmore, Alex Spencer, Ethan Hamm, Liamm Tucker, Pryston Gordon, Barbara Hayes, and finally Benjamin Spear. We've all grown so close, being together for two years already. Some of us are actually closer than just brothers and sisters, like Barb and Ethan, both conveniently being nineteen. We all saw it coming. They both went to tech school to major in computer sciences, but both dropped out when their parents forced the two to break up.

"Hey."

Dannie turned to see a teenage boy about eighteen walk up to her, "what."

"You look about eighteen. How old are you, Gorgeous?"

"Nineteen."

"Well, well..." The boy smirked, then winked, "you look good enough to eat, if you know what I mean."

Ew.

"Get away from me, you Perv. And if you're trying to attract girls, your chances of getting laid are... In the negatives."

The boy retorted, "Hey! At least give me your name, Beautiful!"

Now I'm just annoyed by you, you piece of shit... She turned back to him anyways, "is your name Adam Levine?"

"No."

Dannie turned to face him fully, flipping the sarcasm switch, "wow! You're so smart! You're even able to answer your own question for me! Now fuck off." She turned on her heel and began walking off, "before I kill you."

The boy just stared at her back in utter shock, "call me?"

Without hesitating or turning back, she stuck her finger up into the air, "this one's for you, you dick."

It feels good to do that... Dannie smiled to herself, then heard a ping on her phone. She checked it, and it was a text from Barb.

Ready to roll.

Dannie nodded to herself and began running towards the tech store. Once she made it, she saw Alex and Ben waiting for her there.

We're all out here. Let's rock and roll.

(Here a some promotional pictures for this story.)

So here they are. The new stories I want to publish. But you guys tell me. I mean, I have SOOO many stories I'm still in the middle of writing, so I don't know whether any of them are interesting at all. Please tell me in the comments below and help me out! Thanks for your support guys!

And now for some updates on updates!

Miraculous Stories
(Miraculous Revive, The Second Generation)
I am currently working on those. And also for sad future reference, maybe Revive and Second Generation will be the last in their series. Sadly. People grow up, and things are definitely different. I'm even running out of ideas. Seriously.

Maximum Ride
(Maximum Ride Rise of the Phoenix)
I haven't updated this in forever, mostly because I lost my rough draft and notes for this story, so i was forced to read my story through again and try to pick up where I left off, and so I'm still trying to work things out for this one too.

Young Justice
(Young Justice Season 5 - The Fifth Generation, YJ Team Q&A, Wings of Gotham)
I will continue to do the YJ Team Q&A when I formally and officially return to Wattpad. Wings of Gotham is still under high maintenance, and I'm hoping that by the time I return, Season 5 will be complete! But at the same time, I don't want it to end. Why? Because I know for sure that Season 5 will be the end of my Young Justice Season Series. It's very sad, I know. But like in Miraculous, people get older, and eventually, everyone will be in the Justice League. Unless you want to make a request for a Young Justice story about their kids, then I'll gladly do it! Only if I get enough requests for one though! 😉

Naruto
(Never Again, Leap of Faith)
I have also been working on these, don't worry. I've already got storylines worked out and what I plan and hope will happen, as well as the two other Naruto stories at the top.

It's Fate Series
(It's Fate, Genesis)
I'll have you all know (for anyone who actually keeps up with my It's Fate Series) that I've already got every single book cover planned out and created. So I know how many more books in the series, what's happening in each one, etcetera. Just be aware of that.

The Spotlight Awards: PLATINUM VERSION - Clash of Fandoms
I know Nightwing, Max, Ladybug, Kirito, or Naruto probably said that we were having an Awards Ceremony soon, but I'm actually not quite sure about that yet. With all my stories (except this one for updates) on hold for now. Same goes for the Clash of Fandoms too.

WAR
This is also in the making, still trying to come up with a good plot and how this'll play out in the long run...
