I promised everyone a sequel when I initially finished this story. Then I promised a reboot of the story with an updated story and a true ending plus epilog. Both promises have been broken and I am terribly sorry about that. Furthermore, I am sorry to say that I no longer have any desire to work on this story.
I had wanted to change some things around, work on developing the relationship between Naruto and Sasuke, and show Sasuke working through his addictions and various other problems. I wanted to make a more satisfying ending, as I feel the one now is rushed and all over the place. The story, in general, I feel is quite jumbled and all over the place. I really wanted to fix all of that. Now I highly doubt it will happen. I can't say I'll never come back to this story, but I wouldn't hold out hope for it.
I deeply apologize for stringing everyone along for all these years. I won't ask for forgiveness, because I know I don't deserve it, but I hope the story as it is now can at least kind of satisfy everyone? Ugh. I know it really doesn't, but I don't know what else to say. I truly am sorry. I'm tempted to just delete the story, but I think that's even more unfair.
Update: While I was rummaging around in my old document files and found an epilogue outline that I wrote a long time ago that will hopefully satisfy to some extent.
