"Those eyes, Sasuke. What do you see with them?" Itachi whispered, bringing out the mere power in the scene before his younger brother.
"What I see now…"
"...Is you dead at my feet." Sasuke kept his calm demeanour about himself. He knew if Itachi made one move now, it could be the end, and that was it for his revenge.
"Me, dead at your feet." Itachi appeared to stop breathing, but Sasuke knew what was coming. Not threat.
Itachi appeared behind Sasuke, back to back.
"Let's get to it." Itachi jumped away, and Sasuke already had his hand by his shuriken. They activated the Sharingan. Three Tomoe. It wasn't going to be easy, Sasuke knew it. But this time, he knew Itachi's every move, and he had an ace up his sleeve.
Shino had always said have an ace.
Sasuke forgot about the Hidden Leaf and concentrated on Itachi. He had given up on throwing shuriken and was now forming hand seals. Sasuke traced them lazily, knowing what was going to happen. They both released steady jets of flame at one another, and then Itachi merged his flames with Amaterasu. The black flames threatened to engulf Sasuke when he used his ace. A giant pillar of black flame bust in the centre and all of the flames stopped.
"What?" Itachi muttered.
"Itachi. I've grown more powerful than you can imagine. Just succumb to it."Sasuke said as he opened his eyelids. Under them were his Mangekyo Sharingan.
Itachi jumped back. He didn't have the Mangekyo last time they fought, and he'd used Kotoamatsukami on Naruto, so that couldn't be who died.
"Who died, Sasuke?" he asked.
"You, brother."
