The final author's note: Unlike all the other author's notes, you really should read this one…
I know, not the way it should have ended, but Akina has to die because Itachi did. So don't blame me, blame Masashi Kishimoto (hehe, sorry.) ^x^
Okay… *sigh* Now, I know what you must be thinking, "what the hell do I got planned?" Welllllllllllllll… I'm not fully sure yet? ^^; Truthfully, I haven't even really started writing Umeko's story. And you know something else? It's a shame because I haven't paid much attention to reading Naruto since Itachi's death either. DOOM! Because of 6 months of work of publishing this. And now that Crimson & Clover has ended, we can go onto a new story. Umeko's, no duh, but until the manga gets a little further on, I want to hold off. Since whatever happens to the Leaf, Madara, Kurenai, Sasuke and Naruto will all weigh on Umeko's story. So I'm still limited with that, but don't worry, I think I got a good plot for her if the manga goes the way I think it will. Yet, I didn't think Itachi would die, so… DOOM! It put a freaking monkey wrench in my story! ~/_\~
Personally, Akina's story was gonna end just like I ended it… but… I can't! And yet I just don't know if I'm just dragging this story out? Are you getting tired of me? -_- I could end it all here. And so by this time you're probably wondering what I'm blabbing about, and what will the next story be about already? Akina's dead! Now ponder that thought… Akina's dead? -_- So, I could just end it like this or continue on writing. I'll write even if I have no readers but it all means a lot more to me with you guys reading. Yes you, sitting there all dumbfounded that Akina died in the first place. So help, tell me what you think! ^.^ And I do have other Akatsuki, Bleach and Maximum Ride stories I got to do… hmm? There's just too many ideas circling in my head, haha. And I know you might hate me for killing Akina, and don't worry I've learned to take criticism very well ^^ but… I'm not quite done yet. No, I don't think so? ^_^

Ending song: "Disenchanted" by My Chemical Romance
Lyrics
Well I was there on the day
They sold the cause for the queen
And when the lights all went out
We watched our lives on the screen
I hate the ending myself
But it started with an alright scene
It was the roar of the crowd
That gave me heartache to sing
It was a lie when they smiled
And said, "You won't feel a thing"
And as we ran from the cops
We laughed so hard it would sting
Yeah-yeah, oh
If I'm so wrong
(So wrong, so wrong)
How can you listen all night long?
(Night long, night long)
How will it matter after I'm gone?
Because you never learned a goddamn thing
You're just a sad song, with nothing to say
About a lifelong wait for a hospital stay
And if you think that I'm wrong
This never meant nothing to ya
I spent my high school career
Spit on and shoved to agree
So I could watch all my heroes sell a car on TV
Bring out the old guillotine
We'll show them what we all mean
Yeah-yeah, oh
If I'm so wrong
(So wrong, so wrong)
How can you listen all night long?
(Night long, night long)
Now will it matter long after I'm gone?
Because you never learned a goddamn thing
You're just a sad song, with nothing to say
About a lifelong wait for a hospital stay
And if you think that I'm wrong
This never meant nothing to ya
So go, go away, just go, runaway
But where did you run to?
And where did you hide?
Go find another way, price you pay
Woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah
You're just a sad song, with nothing to stay
About a lifelong wait for a hospital stay
And if you think that I'm wrong
This never meant nothing to ya, c'mon
You're just a sad song, with nothing to say
About a lifelong wait for a hospital stay
And if you think that I'm wrong
This never meant nothing to ya
At all… at all… at all… at all...
