A/N: Takes place in episode 85, when Itachi traps Sasuke in the Tsukuyomi. Told in Sasuke's pov.
"Where am I?"
Darkness, complete and total darkness... one moment I was staring into Itachi's eyes and the next I'm...
falling... falling... falling...
The darkness engulfs me and I'm alone.
Yet something can be seen far, far away...
At once, my surrounding become clear...
It's... My eyes widened with fear. It's...
"This place... I recognize this place!'
I felt my body beginning to tremble, then everything was still.
"Remember this?" I heard Itachi's voice, "It's our childhood home."
"FATHER! MOTHER!"
I felt an icey breath on the back of my neck as my brother formed in front of our parents, sword drawn...
"You're weak Sasuke," he drew the sword back slowly, "and twenty four hourse from now..." I felt the gaze of cruel eyes, "you'll be weaker still."
I watched helplessly as he brought the sword crashing down...
"NO!"
Time paused for just a fraction of a second, the sound of my own tortured cry echoing in my ears...
I was back outside.
"Auntie! Uncle!"
I cried as Itachi's sword slashed in front of me.
"Foolish little brother."
I was again pulled into the scene of my mother and father...
"Surviving in such an unsightly manner as this."
The sword drew back.
"By all means, flee..."
It slashed downward again.
"Cling to your wretched life..."
Again time paused, the scene before me fading to darkness as I gasped...
Then I heard it, a bitter scream of pure anguish... a chilling sound that continued for what seemed like an eternity...
I was the one screaming and it was all Itachi's fault.
Hate... despair... darkness... neglect and emptiness... cold and alone... lost and forsaken...
My screams died, and then there was nothing...
