I chose by eenie meenie miny mo cuz they're both good and I can only read one chap before I have to go. :(

I believe you've got some problems in writing style, but they're pretty rudimentary and this is the first chap ^^. I liked it, and I liked Tsubame the most in this chapter, for some reason.

Author's Response: Haha, what can I say to that? Eenie meenie minee moe is the best way to go... Haha, I just made a rhyme XD Oh yeah, the first few chapters of this story are atrocious, I want to get around to rewriting them. Haha, you like Tsubame? That's interesting, I don't think anyone has said they like her so far :P Anyway, I appreciate you reading this, Rose-chan! Thanks a bunch! I really hope the bad writing style in the beginning of this story doesn't turn you away. Thanks for reading and reviewing, you're awesome!

(n soz for the jumbled review :L)

Author's Response: Hehe, you always start your reviews with an exclamation about how excited you are to see that I updated. It makes me feel very good to know that I make my readers happy when I update :)

Hey, how do you know she won't really be executed? I just might do it to throw you guys off ;) I'm glad you like Masaru's new style as captain; I thought organization would suit him better.

Yeah, it took me a while to figure out how I was going to make Kasumi's Blood Bending Jutsu work out just right. It is creepy, but at least it's effective.

Old people just seem to have a way of being annoying, don't they? Naruto, no matter how irritating he can be when he gets involved in everything, is actually a very important piece for interacting with new people. He just has that magic touch that seems to get through to people. Though in this case, it inspired Kasumi to not be executed, which can be a good and bad thing.

Oh yeah, I'm still slowly revealing things about Kasumi's past. I won't explain everything at once until later. So for now, you're stuck my little hints ;D Hmm, Sasuke and Kabuto are probably just around Konoha at this point, but that's all I have to say about that XP Ah, Inari, I enjoy writing about him because he has Naruto's fighting spirit.

I think when Hinata is involved, it's just always cute, just because she's such a sweet and genuine person. I'm debating whether I should have all the teams meet Kasumi in prison, we'll see... Haha, they all seemed like they didn't care about her, but they really do. She's grown on them already XD

I just figured since this chapter didn't have the kind of drama that the two previous ones had, this chapter wouldn't be as good. But I'm still glad you liked this! Thanks for the (jumbled) review, I always appreciate your comments. Thanks again for reading and reviewing!

This is sick. I like the idea a lot. HOWEVER~! I am appalled at the horrific amount of violence. What has come over you?! Inari is just a little kid.

^_~

no, I really do like this one so far.

Author's Response: I wasn't insinuating that you should read this! I was saying that you my main character is different than Suki! *sigh* Well anyways, since you've gone and read it anyway... I freaked out when I saw 'This is sick' and 'HOWEVER'. But phew, I'm glad you liked this. Oh, I guess I was a bit mean to Inari... Hmm, I guess I'm mean to the normal characters too... Wow, I'm glad you like this. I'm flattered, thank you very much for reading and reviewing, I deeply appreciate it :D

Ah, shoot, I forgot about telling you that the reason I want Eza to fight Kasumi is because Kasumi hurt Hinata's feelings! How dare she do that! Hiashi is the only- wait, no one is allowed to hurt her feelings! Man I hope NaruHina comes soon, cause I saw it in the categories! Well, by for now! Wait, I was going to go get back up on Naruto Gx! Well, later!

Author's Response: Well, that is definitely a good reason for an Ezra vs. Kasumi battle, heehee! But in the end, Kasumi did make Hinata feel a bit more confident in herself. Don't worry, NaruHina is coming somewhat soon. I haven't forgotten about the best canon pairing ever ;D Well, thanks again for reviewing, see you later!

Well, I couldn't agree more with shadow - about you anyway, silverwolf - but then I've been saying the same kind of stuff for ages anyway. Glad he found my review so helpful...

(And Shadow, Urufu is japanese for wolf ;0) )

Author's Response: Ah, you have definitely been saying the same type of thing for ages. I'm still not sure why, honestly.... But I'm always grateful for your wonderful supporting words. Thank you, as always, for such motivating and encouraging words. You really are a great person, even if you try to deny it ;)

Oh, the beginning's really good. Very dramatic and I love the imagery with the tidal waves and everything. I could just see it all so clearly in my head - and you kept that up throughout the chapter which was nice. I loved your writing style in this. Your narrative voice sounded a little like Kishimoto-sensei/the Naruto anime and your presentation and use of characters resembled them a little too. The plotline was breathtaking. I was on the edge of my seat. Pirates may have been done before from time to time, but I've yet to see anything done this well. This a very original idea in many ways and I love it. I also love the fact that its based in the Naruto-world as is. It gives it a feel as if it could really happen there. This has the promise of being a really exciting story and I can't wait to see where you take it.

Author's Response: Ah! Oh my gosh, you are so nice. I am so happy to hear everything you had to say. It was such a confidence booster. I'm so glad to hear that my writing was nice, and to hear that you love my writing style... best news ever! I am just so flattered at your words. I am so overjoyed that you love this idea. You are a very kind reviewer, thank you so much! I can't thank you enough for your words of kindness. Thank you for reading this story, and thank you even more for reviewing with such nice insight. You're an awesome reader and reviewer!

Haha your very welcome! I'd be happy if anyone liked my OC's too so it's no big deal! I'm loving this website purely 'cause of your stories and the Kokoro Uchiha one. =D

YAY NEW CHAPTER SOON!! xD See now you've gone and gotten me excited! Well, I'll just have to wait I gues...even though it's SO hard..Oh well, I'll just go read your other stories! LOL

Author's Response: Aw, that's so sweet of you to say! The fact that my story is one of the things that makes you love this site is very supportive. And don't you worry about that new chapter. I predict that it shall make an appearance very soon. But if you wish to read my other stories, I won't stop you! XD LOL.

I'm glad I chose to read this story. It's really good. I wonder what will happen to Inari. I'm glad to hear he's still keeping his promise to not be a cry baby. He's gotten so strong since then. Anyway, I can't wait to read another one of your chapters, silverwolf1213. Could I just call you Wolf-chan for short? If not, that's okay. I can't wait to see what happens next. If the rest of your story is as good as the beginning, then you have no problem. I saw very few mistakes, which is good on your part. Keep up the good work!

Author's Response: Wow! I have a new fan! That is so encouraging! And let's give a shout out to Inari, shall we? He's such a brave dude. I hope you enjoy the rest of the story. And yes, you can call me Wolf-chan. I don't mind :) It's so cool to hear that you are really interested in my fic. I'm super glad that you enjoyed the beginning, and I hope the rest of this story continues to catch your interest. Thank you so much for your kind words and praise! It means a lot to me to have support from my readers. Thanks for choosing to read my story, and thanks even more for taking the time to review it! Happy New Year!
