Sam Vs The Californian Summer (Written 2010)

by The Solar Surfer

Sam's new to California and she's not liking it. She's liking it a lot less with the hot weather, Buy More employees, and sword-wielding ninjas. The Bartowski team's hot on a infamous drug dealer while Miss Bartowski is crushing hard on a new boy she's just met. Of course, what are the chances of them all being connected? Series DISCONTINUED, wrote NEW VERSION.

1. AUTHOR ALERT

This is mostly just an alert - I'm considering doing another edit of this story. The plot, at least most of it, will remain mostly the same. Several basic ideas will remain the same, but there are some big changes I want to make:

1. More Chuck and canon characters - I wanted to do POV chapters, from the respective characters, and as Chuck goes from one mission to the other. It'll probably center around third season, episode 9 (Chuck Vs. The Beard), as I feel that's a big milestone episode and it feels appropriate.

2. Third Person: Everything will be written from third person - I realized I wanted to change Sam's personality, and that it flowed better writing in third person. This would apply throughout the story, in all POVS.

3. If I'm really committed to this (I haven't decided yet - its going to be a lot of editing and re-writing), part of the timeline will be changed. It'll occur after Scorpia Rising, so Alex will be in San Francisco with Sabina, who will show up in this third attempt at a re-edit as well. I feel as though his cyncism at this stage and Sam's idealism would make for good foils.

So, yeah, those are the basic ideas that I want to go with. I'd like to know what you, the readers thinks. I don't want to do this if there's no audience for it, because my time is somewhat cramped this past couple months and I don't want to feel like I'm wasting my time with a vain effort.

Any and all feedback is appreciated :) Feel free to either use reviews or private messages, I'll read and respond to both.
