i know this is from a long time ago, but i would really like it to be continued... please. i like it. lovely. thank you. -soft smile-

Nicely done! I agree that Orochimaru is interesting, I mean, how and why did he become the way he is now? But, I'm used to much longer chapters from you.. Oh well, when I started reading it, I thought it was Kakashi that was thinking and the main character would be Sasuke, which was probably your intention. Anyway, it's been quite a while since you updated. *Hint* *Hint*

Interesting start. I can't wait to read more of this story.

Wow! I can't wait to read more -- out of the norm is better in my book! Plus, I love the Jiraiya-Tsunade-Orochimaru trio. Jiraiya's one of my favorites--I love the parallel to Naruto and would love to read a bit about him and the Fourth Hokage as well! Great job!

Awesome story—and I'm glad you're writing about Orochimaru. I don't know zip about him and I want to learn more, and this story is a good way for me to. *smiles*

^__^ Yay! Orochimaru's pretty cool, but he's under-rated. Thanks for writing a fic about him!

Yeah, a story about the legendary three ninja. I always wanted to know more about their past. I like your story so far, please keep writing. :)

^_^ interesting , hope you'll continue this! i can actually picture this happening!

it's nice to see something refreshing like this !!

yay!! 3 cheers for Tchernobyl!! i've been looking around for the legendary 3's fanfics but can't seem to find many...especially as good as urs...hahaha, i like the way u portray them as kakashi's group seven (the lateness, the kids' reactions)...i just hope sasuke doesn't become like orochimaru...anyway, i'm glad u decided to post ur fic here coz it's great!! plz continue...

very nice! please continue! and if you like, submit this fic to aksarah dot com slash naruto [ff dot net doesn't like web addresses, so i've spelled it out :(]
i agree about the rampant shonen ai in naruto ficdom... it's disapointing as a reader.
thank you for writing something worth reading and please write more.

Nice dramatic start, Tcher... now, let's only hope you finish this one, unlike your Eva fic. =P

Gatsu, I can agree with you there - this place is far too overrun with the stupid yaoi fics. I mean, even in the most twisted of interpretations, their little "NaruSasu" fantasies aren't even possible - sonsidering their personalities, neither one of them would want to be The **. *cough*

Very good! I like the idea and introduction!



Orochimaru is... DARTH VADER.. Ok, maybe not.. I guess he was just plain evil to begin with... I can't wait to see the really cool evilness of orochimaru!

heh heh, you're right about the rampant yaoi.. It would be nice if more people would actually try to write interesting and logical stories that anybody can enjoy, instead of writing yaoi stories which don't make sense whatsoever.. In addition to yaoi being in bad taste...

Hopefully, Naruto fanfiction won't get overrun by a bazillion horny fangirls writing yaoi like gundam wing was.. I don't even read any gundam wing fanfiction anymore; it's too hard to find the stories that are actually worth my time..

Hm. *nods*

Could be interesting. Very even.

>.> *can just imagine Tsunade slapping Jiraiya like that* Yes. ^.^ i wanna see more!
