Hey all this is going to be my first one-shot and it is dedicated to Frog-Wallet. I have come up with this idea in the spur of the moment and I believe this will be believable as far as how Sasuke feels about things so here it is.
I own nothing but my items and Naruto belongs to the great Masashi Kishimoto-sama.
My Reasons
Sasuke P.O.V.
10 years ago
I defeated Naruto and left the village today, quite an accomplishment for a genin huh. Well I'm sorry Naruto I had to leave to stop him my brother from killing you too. I don't want something like that to happen again. I care what happens to anyone close to me I will not stand for them to suffer because of me. So I will turn my back on the village until I kill that man. I will return one day Naruto you can believe that. But, right now, this is my reason to leave.
5 years ago
I have had many difficulties starting with what my brother did to me.
"Why brother why?" is what I asked when he killed the clan and he only replied with "to test my ability."
He killed not only the clan but also my innocence as well as my life. I felt so devastated that I cried and cried for days until I remembered that he told me to kill him by living in an unsightly way. At the time I thought he just wanted me to kill him but now I realize that he was taunting me to become worse and that I should have overcome that. …Well I figured that out and now I no longer care what my brother does as long as he doesn't invade my life again. No. That's a lie I still want my revenge but I believe I don't care as much as I used to anyway. Well now I guess I will return to Konoha and hope that I don't receive the death penalty. I believe Naruto won't let that happen however and that I killed the Otogakure so I think I'll be okay. sigh. This is my reason for returning to the village.

Surprisingly, they never intended to give me the death penalty however, I did receive some punishment. If you would call it punishment to have, Naruto and Sakura watch over me. Well that was over a year ago right now Naruto is currently in pain by avoiding death in the middle of the kyuubi extraction. I think he is doing all right now however; I am now on the hunt for my brother (sigh) once again. Wait I think I see him I'll finish this now "Itachi"
Ha, I did it. I finally defeated him I can't believe it I think I'm going to die from exhaustion. Oh man this is too great I think I can finally smile again this is my reason to smile.
Present time
I can relax now I am 22, married to Sakura and have a son. I am living pretty well right now. Naruto and I are still rivals but I won't let him win easily. What are we competing over you ask. Well it's over who will become the best ninja in the village regardless of rank. I will fight with my full strength and will do my family proud now I have no reason to brood, to be sad or to sulk. Right now I have a reason to live and that is good enough for me.
Alright that is the end of this story only two pages long so it shouldn't take to long to read right. I think I captured the essence of Sasuke somewhat and if you're wondering, yes, Naruto is married to Hinata. If you review I'll give you a big cookie and a hug.(cookies for guys hugs for gals) Keep reading what I post and soon you will even see me update Friend Found soon to be renamed because of massive overflow of ideas.
