Sasuke snorted at the man calling him "boy".

"Is something wrong?" Seda asked, looking at the young man confusedly.

"Nothing." Sasuke said, shaking his head as he turned away from the silver-haired man.

"Are you sure?" Seda asked in a deadly voice, resting a hand on the hilt of his sword.

Sasuke stiffened as he looked directly into Seda's eyes, and immediately saw the color of his eyes change from violet to a blood-red color that almost looked like he had the Sharingan all except for the two deadly purple cat-like slits in the center from the top, which disappeared into the eyelids. Sasuke noticed the dark, purple smoke entering his back before it quickly disappeared.

Before Sasuke could do anything, Seda immediately caught him off-guard by grabbing the Uchiha by the throat in a tight deathlike grip as a sinister smirk crossed his lips and spoke in a voice that was his, but sounded more deeper and menacing.

Sasuke groaned out in pain as he gripped his hands in an attempt to weaken his grip, but Seda only tightened his grip even harder to the point where he was gasping for air.

"I'm going to savor every minute of this, pathetic mortal." He said before the violet color returned to his eyes.

Instantly dropping Sasuke to the floor, Seda's eyes were wide as he stared in horror at the red marks on the young Uchiha's neck.

"Are you alright?!"

"I'm fine." Sasuke said, massaging his neck. "But what was that?!"

Seda cast a look down at his hands sharply. "I'm... not sure. The last time I lost control was..."

Finally, Seda released Sophia's body from his tight grip. "Argh!" He screamed in fury as he picked up his sword. Swinging it around as he did when he was angry, Seda chopped his curtains off, broke his glass window, and smashed his statue. Unstoppable now, he burst through anything in his way.

His advisor rushed in, "King Seda! Stop!" Seda ran his sword through him.

A Healer followed him, when she heard a death cry. She gasped at the bloody carcass, and then looked at Seda. Her eyes never lost their shock as he murdered her too, only seeing another obstacle in his way. Seda went on a killing rampage in a black rage.

Suddenly, he screamed. A bloodcurdling scream that shook the dead in their graves. A terrifying scream that shattered the mirrors. A horrible scream that broke the bounds holding back the Dark Genie.

A black figure came from Seda's body, rising high into the air. "At last! I am free from the confines of that mortal!" It laughed and hurled a ball of black light at the city, instantly destroying thousands of civilians. It snarled as a soldier stabbed it with his sword, "Foolish imbecile, I am invincible!" He grabbed the man and gulped him down. The Dark Genie smirked as he surveyed the damage and flew off.

"Are you alright?" Sasuke asked, tapping the silver-haired man's shoulder.

Seda shook his head furiously to the side. "I'm fine." He said before he took off.

"Where are you going?!" Sasuke demanded as he caught up to the silver-haired man.

"To find a very rare stone." Seda said, looking at the raven-haired young man. "And I never got your name."

"It's Sasuke Uchiha." Sasuke said, closing his eyes. "How come your eyes changed from violet to red like that, Seda... was it?"

"It was a price for obtaining a dark power that I used to annihilate an opposing army." Seda said, bowing his head shamefully.

"Obtaining a dark power?" Sasuke repeated, looking into Seda's bright violet eyes. "Are you a... vessel?"

"Yes. To a dark entity known as the Dark Genie." Seda said grimly as he clenched his sword.

"I'm sorry about that." Sasuke said remorsefully.

"It's nothing, Sasuke. But I must find out how to beat the Genie." Seda said, clasping a hand on Sasuke's shoulder.
