TheRamenLord

[H:F.S.T.T.S] tells the extraordinary story of Alex Masters, a Hollywood outsider who fought his way into the industry and now stands on the brink of creating cinematic history. And while he had always enjoyed the peace and anonymity of the shadows, he knew it was time to embrace the spotlight and show the world the kind of cinema he and his friend had once dreamt of. From his humble beginnings as a teenager hustling on film sets, Alex became a self-taught jack of all trades, honing his skills in everything from special effects to screenwriting. He has carved a path marked by his relentless ambition, daring choices, and a mind for storytelling that none could ignore. Now, nearly 2 decades later, Alex embarks on his most ambitious project yet—an epic tale that could cement his legacy as one of the greatest filmmakers of his time. But behind the camera lies a man haunted by personal demons, complex relationships, and a number of enemies scheming in the dark, threatening to destroy everything he's worked for. As the cameras roll, Alex’s journey unfolds through not just his own but also the eyes of those around him—actors, colleagues, and rivals—all drawn to his genius but questioning what lies beneath his unyielding drive. In a world where loyalty is rare and ambition is ruthless, Alex must balance his vision with the sacrifices required to achieve greatness. Filled with intrigue, passion, and the relentless pursuit of art, From Shadows to the Spotlight explores the price of genius and the cost of chasing an impossible dream. Will Alex’s obsession lead him to triumph, or will the shadows of his past and the enemies he had made along the way swallow him whole?

Hollywood is a place that has changed the fates of a lot of people, but Hollywood's fate changed when a soul from our world was reborn in there's. A soul whose life had been cut short, whose dream's remained unfulfilled, he who begrudgingly accepted his second chance at life. He vowed to make a difference this time around, for he was going to conquer Hollywood and to save it from itself; and fulfill his dreams in the process.

"Be careful what you wish for," and "Never say something which you aren't willing to or can't back up." These were two important lessons he learnt when his first life officially came to an end. Can one's grit, meta knowledge and cunning take them to the peak of a fictional world they have only read about in the pages of their beloved Manga? With no cheats or powers or wishes other than "Knowledge", and reborn as a civilian our protagonist will have to prove that he climb to peak of power in an alternate fictional world based on Kishimoto-sensei's work called Naruto. This is his journey, on [The Road To Kage]. Interesting Facts about this story: The first, this story isn't set in "Narutos era" so the protagonist isn't the same age as Naruto. He could be older or even younger you'll have to read further to find out. The second, while this protagonist doesn't have a cheat or clan's bloodline, he still has talent but he'll have to work his butt off and use his wits if he wants to come out on top. {Upload Schedule: 1 chapter every 6 days, but please note that this isn't a fixed upload schedule as this isn't my main story. My main story is [Hollywood: Head-Hunting System], and that is my top priority. Also if you want to read ahead just head over to my PATR EON or KOF I (remove spaces) to read ahead 10 chapters in advance of the public release and to support me if you like my work.
