A door slowly opens. Two bodies lay on the floor. A boy with red eyes stands hovering over them.
Two boys a girl and a man with grey hair sit on a rooftop.
'I don't have a dream, but I do have a goal. That is... to kill a certain man.'
The Two boys trapped in a dome of mirrors. One standing In front of the other defensively. Heavily injured.
The same two boys in a forest. One has two knives stabbed into a snake, Holding it at bay.
Several kids in the same forest. One covered in black flame marks.'You're telling me that Orochimaru left a curse mark on Sasuke?' 'Yes. He said sasuke will come to me, without fail, in search of power."
The two boys again. One throws a windmill at a man with a giant sword holding another hostage in water. He dodges but it transforms into the boy in orange.
'Don't worry, it'll be okay! Sasuke wouldn't fall for that guy's enticement. He's already really powerful. He doesn't need that kind of thing!'
A narrow hallway. The boy now wearing black, glared with red eyes at a man who also had red eyes, wearing a black cloak with red clouds.
The two boys are on a rooftop. One with lightning in his hand the other with a raging sphere.
The boy and a pink haired girl are on a trail. The boy is standing behind the girl. Tears are streaming down her face.
The two boys are standing on to statues. One on either side of a valley. 'Wake up already!' 'I woke up a long time ago... from the stupidity of dreaming of a peaceful future with my comrades. I wasn't getting stronger, but my time wasn't wasted there.'
The boys stand at the feet of each statue. One had strange hand-wings while the other had a red cloak over him. 'To me you became... my closest friend.'
The black haired boy is hovering over the unconscious blond boy.
The boys and girl are now older. They are standing in a broken underground fortress. 'These two still hold bonds with you. I don't fully understand it... but you should Sasuke.' 'Yeah, I did understand... that's why I severed those bonds. I have a different bond now... one of hatred with my older brother.'
The boy I a child again. Laying on the ground in front of his two dead parents. The older boy standing, Watching. 'You will become a rival to measure my vessel against.'
They are now standing outside with the corpses in the dark of the night. 'You have that hidden potential. You've been jealous of me and resented me. You've harbored hopes of surpassing me. That's why I'm allowing you to live. For my sake.'
The younger boy is older again. He is wearing a cloak his eyes red. He's walking towards a hideout with a red and white fan on it. 'My foolish little brother. If you wish to kill me, resent me, hate me.'
He's now on the side of a wall in the black outfit again. lightning in his hand as he begins running down the wall as the lighting tears into it. 'And live... in obscurity.'
He is now standing on a cliff at night next to four others with headbands that have a music note on it. 'Run, run. Cling desperately to life.'
The boy and his brother are back outside with the corpses. The brothers eyes have changed from even farther. 'Then one day, come before me, with the same eyes I now possess.'
The two brothers are both facing each other in the clan fortress. On sitting on a stone throne the other standing in front of him.
They are in the Narrow Hallway again. 'It's just as you said... I've hated you and resented you for the single purpose of killing you I...' his hand coats in powerful lighting. 'I've... live my life! I will kill you!' He charges at the older brother.
They are on the rooftop of the clan hideout. Lightning is cracking in the clouds. He swipes his lighting coated hand down. 'Now begone, with the thunderclap.'
The younger stands still when the two fingers tap his forehead. His older brother begins to fall to the ground the blood on his hand leaving a streak as it slides down his face.
The two of them, children again are sitting together in front of a pond in their backyard. 'You probably hate me don't you?' 'I don't hate you. I just wish I could be as good as you' the oldest laughs. 'Being the best isn't all it's cracked up to be... when you have power, you become isolated and arrogant. Even if you are coveted and sought after at first. But we only have each other as siblings. I'll always be there for you, even if I'm only an obstacle for you to overcome. Even if you do hate me.'
The youngest collapses next to his now dead older sibling. The fortress used for their battle completely destroyed. 'That's what big brothers are for.'
The boy now sits on the ground bandaged in a cave with a masked man. The cave only lit by a single candle. 'No! You're lying! He tried to kill me! He slaughtered the clan!' 'It's all true... itachi killed every member of the uchiha clan that night... by order of the Hidden leaf. He worried deeply about you... he wept tears of blood... and slaughtered his own flesh and blood for the sake of your village. Itachi... killed his friends, his elders, his father, his mother, even his lover... but he just couldn't kill you. His younger brother.
Sasuke stands on a cliff, tears pouring down his face as he mourned the loss of his brother. 'If you want to ridicule me as a child swayed by his emotions go ahead. If anyone were to criticize my life, I would turn around and slaughter all their loved ones. So maybe then the could understand a little of my hate.'
Sasuke now stands on a river bed in front of his old teacher. 'That damned laughter. They are all laughing. They laugh, despite Itachi's sacrifice! They all laugh together in ignorance! Your laughter sounds like scorn and disdain to me now! I'll turn those laughs into SCREAMS OF DREAD!!! You... and the rest of the village... I'll SLAUGHTER YOU ALL! You are all OBJECTS OF MY HATRED!!!'
Sasuke and the blond boy are running towards each other one had lighting it hand. The other had a raging sphere. 'You've got no parents. No brothers! What could you possibly know about me! YOU CAN UNDERSTAND ANYTHING SO JUST SHUT UP!' The two attacks collide.
'Naruto...' they are once again standing on the riverbank sasuke on one side and his old team on the other. 'Just what the hell do you want?!
Why are you so fixated on me?!?' 'I'm not giving up on you yet. I'm... I'm going to bring you back to the hidden leaf village! That's a promise!'
He is now in a cave. His older brother zombified walking towards him, glowing. 'I've always lied to you and asked you to forgive me. Deliberately keeping you at a distance by my own hand. I won't ask you to forgive me anymore.' His hand grabs the back of my head and brings it to touch his. 'But remember this. I will love you always.'
'First hokage. I ask you this. What is a village, and what does it mean to be a shinobi?' They we're in a room with the four zombified previous leaders of the hidden leaf village. 'The village Madara and I envisioned, it protected children from pointless conflict. Peace was made reality. However it gave rise to despair, the kind you brother itachi was forced to endure. I am the shinobi responsible for the way of things... and I find them acceptable. I believe shinobi are those who endure. They endure whatever necessary to achieve their goals.' 'Shinobi endure... to find their purpose?'
Sasuke and Naruto, now older found themselves once again standing on the two statues of their previous incarnations. 'I'll take on all the darkness myself. I'll become the common enemy of the entire world so that they will be to busy trying to kill me to war each other.'
The sun was almost down when sasuke got up out of the crater in the cliff. 'Over and over. Over and over and over And OVER!!! Just give up and let me cut you down!!!' 'Can't do that. I'm your one and only friend remember?'
'Why do you fight for the hidden leaf?!?! They used up your clan, tried to erase you from existence! Why do you still fight for them?!?!?' 'I have a friend who saved me... A friend whom I can share my pain, and him with me. His wish is that one day the world be like us. And that's why I've chosen to keep fighting. To make his dream of peace come true...'
I open my eyes.
