NeopetgirlWoa..it's like I was reading an episode from Naruto! With the awesome additions of your original characters! Now I know how Ekyt lost his eye..darn Gaara.. I hate him for that..I love how it's turning out though! Brilliant job.

Midnight_Chaos on (Chapter: 1)
Midnight_ChaosPerfect start NextGaurdian!! You introduced the characters very well :D I'm looking forward to reading the rest!! Your characters sound very interesting...I feel sorry for Ekyt though, with that wounded eye. I wonder if it will ever heal? I'm intrigued to see where this is heading ^_^

There are just a couple of things you can fix up if you want, mainly the dialogue setup. I learned these things from other authors from fanfiction since I used to do these mistakes myself....but I'll pass the info onto you if you wanna use it. First, it's always good to have each character's dialogue on a seperate line. For example:
"I'm gonna be hokage! Believe it!" screamed Naruto, earning him a deathglare from Sasuke.
"Shut up Loser," Sasuke replied in a low mutter.
This way, it's easier to read, and ppl don't get confused as to who is speaking.

When writing dialogue too, if the sentence continues on after the person has stopped speaking, instead of using a fullstop at the end of their speech, use a comma. Luckily someone corrected me on this mistake at the start of my Jak and Daxter fic a while ago...here's a basic example.
Incorrect grammar: Sakura narrowed her eyes at Naruto, "You are such an idiot." She said.
Correct Grammar: Sakura narrowed her eyes at Naruto, "You are such an idiot," she said.
Notice how there is a comma at the end of her line instead of a fullstop? I hope I'm making sense...also, you may know this already, but there isn't a capital on the word "she". Seriously, I'm not good at explaining things like this lol. If you want me to explain further, I'll try ^_^ But yeah, that's really the only main problems.

It may also be a good idea to either have a larger space between scene changes (hitting "enter" again would probably do before each scene change/location change) or you can add in a line to split it. On fanfiction, I usually add in a line (not sure what it's called O.o;) whenever it changes from one group's POV to another. You can also just add in stuff like OOOOOoooooOOOOOO or something to show it's a different setting/scene. This isn't really that important, but I just got a little confused here and there when the setting suddenly changed. That might just be me though, since I get confused over anything these days *lowers head in shame*

Just one more thing, which again isn't very important. Besides, this just might be your style of writing :) Expanding on a character's actions and how they say things is a good way to explore characters in depth. The more you explain what a character is doing and saying, and how they're acting, the more your readers can connect with that character. Eg:
"I'm hungry Iruka-Sensei!" Naruto said.
Adding in a few descriptive words here and there will help us to visualise Naruto's hungry, hungry state...mmmmmm.....food.....*horrified gasp* I haven't eaten yet!!! They'll be some serious fridge raiding after this....but back to this, here is the same line but with a little more words added.
"I'm hungry Iruka-Sensei!" Naruto said loudly, tugging on Iruka's sleeve while giving his teacher a pouting look. Long story short, explaining a character's actions/thoughts/feelings/dialogue in more depth will help us to understand them better. You've done a good job on Ekyt though, explaining his thoughts and such. I just think the other characters need a little bit more too. But again, this isn't that important. It's just something you could look into to help us connect with the cast a little more.

I think that's all of it...overall it's an awesome start, and I'm really looking forward to reading the rest. If you need me to explain anything again, feel free to ask. Other than that, good luck NextGuardian!! I really hope this story goes well for you :D Keep up the great work!!
