A/N: Hey there loyal readers and reviewers. I know I haven't updated in over a month and it's like an angry monkey on my back that will not go away. Unfortunately, school work and the fact that I work a horrendous five days a week has not made getting to this thing any easier. I would like to say though that I will be postponing the trip to the Land of Sea since I discovered, courtesy of an insightful reviewer that the Land of Sea is located south of the Land of Water. Thus I decided that the group will go there after Haku and Zabuza join up after the time skip I have planned following the group's encounter with Yugito and Nibi. I am split however, on whether introducing Israbi will be a good idea or not. I'll leave that up to you guys to decide. Now I don't know when I'll be able to get it out, but chapter 12 will be out soon hopefully before the end of a month. If not, please be patient. Now here are the current standings for Naruto's permanent partner/mate/whatever you guys wanna call it:
Anko – 6 (Snake + Fox ?)
Temari – 6 (This might end up being the pairing, just a feeling)
Yugito – 6 (A three way tie… wow)
Tayuya – 3 (No comment)
Kin – 1 (No love, eh Kin?)
Alright, so I'll be seeing you all when chapter 12 makes its debut and please note that this note will be deleted once I put up chapter 12 So stay tuned for it.
