Chapter Three:

Sasuke's Dream

Sasuke opens his eyes and finds himself on a platform. "Where am I?"

"This is your pillar of Darkness,"

The voice startles Sasuke. He looks around to see if anyone's there. No one is.

"Who's there? Show yourself!"

"I, Sasuke Uchiha, am the darkness within you,"

"The darkness…within me?"

"Now, the time has come, you must choose a path to fallow,"

A Staff, a Sword, and a Shield appear in front of him.

"One of these weapons will guide you to your destiny,"

"One of these weapons will be the path I take? Hmm, well the sword shall be my best bet,"

Sasuke grabs the sword and swings it around to get use to it.

"Your path is set, now to test your skills,"

Five Shadow Heartless appear. Sasuke only smirks, "Your going to test my skills with these Heartless? Fine by me," He charges towards them, and within seconds the first three are gone. The fourth one makes an attempt to strike, but Sasuke jumps into the air to dodge it. He lands behind the Shadow, and slices it in half. The fifth and final Shadow, leap into the air to strike, but Sasuke kicks up wards to send the Heartless even higher. He then jumps up with them and slices the last Shadows in half. "Humph, is that all you got?"

"Good, you are ready. The real test begins,"

"What? You mean that was just practice?" Sasuke asks. Suddenly, Sasuke turns around and sees darkness start to form a body. Sasuke is surprised to see what or who is now in front of him. His eyes grow wide from shock. "This is my test? I have to fight my big brother, Itachi!?"

The darkness forms his worst fear; the murderer of his entire clan, Itachi Uchiha. He pulls out a kunai and charges for Sasuke.

"To be worthy, you must defeat the darkness in your and control it at will,"

Itachi slashes at Sasuke's head; Sasuke dodges by ducking, but in result gets kicked to the side. He quickly rolls out of the way of Itachi's sword he just pulls out. Sasuke slashes at Itachi's feet; he jumps out of range. Sasuke gets up and charges toward Itachi, ready to strike. Their blades start clashing with one another, while sparks are flying. Sasuke slashes downwards; Itachi moves to the side making him miss, and then kicks Sasuke all the way to the edge of the pillar.

"Man, even though he's not really here, this Itachi is just like the real thing." Sasuke says while struggling to get to his feet. "I need to think of something fast, or I'm done for."

Itachi charges towards Sasuke at full speed. He strikes, but Sasuke quickly guards the blade. Sasuke kicks Itachi's hand, making him drop his sword and Sasuke stabs him where the heart is suppose to be.

Itachi stumbles back, darkness spreading everywhere. He sinks into the pillar and darkness starts consuming it.

"W-what's going on?" Sasuke says when the darkness starts consuming him.

Don't be afraid.

You have the mightiest weapon of all.

You too will be the one who will open the door.
