Disclaimer: If I owned Naruto, then Naruto would have blue hair, but I don't, so he doesn't.
A/N: hehe, I just realized A/N is author's note. Anyways, this here is me first naruto fanfiction and it is not humorous, unlike all my other stories.
Flight into darkness
Itachi stood in the middle of the room, silver moonlight illuminating the boards before him. He breathed in with unhappy resignation. The deed was done. The Uchiha were no more.
Itachi knew who it was the moment he heard the door opening and he also knew his orders. Turning, he watched as Sasuke was torn apart by grief at the atrocities commited by his elder brother. I am a monster
Sasuke was staring in silent horror at the figure of his brother. Realization battling against the impossibility of the situation. It couldn't be his brother! His brother whom he had worked so hard to seek approval from. His brother who was now standing amidst a massacre he had committed. Sasuke screamed in horror and grief as he was embroiled in the sharingan's powers, forced to watch as his parents were brutally murdered in the macabre negative image of genjutsu.
Itachi forced his brother to endure the mental torture. Tears were rolling unchecked down his cheeks. It's for your own good, little brother. I won't kill you! Not for the Leaf, or anything else.
He left, leaping silently into the eerily deserted streets. He knew Sasuke would follow and though he could easily run, he wanted to say goodbye.
And so, he turned and steeled himself for what he must do. He gave his brother a reason to live by making him hate his brother. What bitter irony.
Itachi expected the solid thud of the Kunai as they stabbed into him. He made no move to evade them, instead relishing in the pain he felt, the pain he deserved. Already you hate me little brother, already you would kill me.
The pain in Itachi's heart was more than the pain any Kunai could have caused.
If only you knew, little brother.
He turned, revealing for a fraction of a moment, the truth.
A tear glinted as it slid smoothly down his cheek.
Goodbye, Sasuke. Then he disappeared
