Author's Note: I believe I've just started a Minato x Naruto series :}.

Waa~

OOOO

With much respect, I'll shake your hand. Your fight in the battle was battle was superb. Your tatics were military grade and your techniques were blinding. You were a worthy opponent and I applaud you as to the fact no propaganda was used. Within a fight between men, ill talking inevitable; You sir, avoided it completely. As if the road diverged into two paths, you took the high, honorable one. To that, once more, I'll shake your hand.

It is a pity to see you go, retreating slowly in a shake. But I'm glad I can say, with a sly grin on my face, that you'll never hinder my plans again.

Do you remember the saying, "Cheaters never win"? Of course you would. You once told me that in rage as I won the battle in triumph. As a word of advice from the wise, " He who is smarter can do whatever the royal fuck they please. The dumbest can go home and cry it out in their pillow." In this case, my dumb opponent, I am the winner. And as the saying went, I can do whatever the hell damn I please. Honestly, I don't expect to hear any complaints from you; you retired without a peep. If you do wish to say anything, by all means say it now. As I indulge in my prize, yes, the forbidden fruit, I won't have any time to humor you.

Now, as you contemplate your last words, because I'm going in for the kill, just remember to pray to your nonexistent god. And when you do, tell him how you lost your 12 year unrequited love to your beloved's father. Ah yes! Sasuke Uchia lost Naruto Namikaze to his father, Minato. And don't you ever forget it...

Fire is hot.
