Pride
The moon is obscured tonight, hiding behind black clouds that swirl angrily in the sky. The wind is picking up; a storm will be here soon. I've almost made it out of the village, but as I reach the walls, he comes running after me, making enough noise to wake up the dead.
"Don't you have any pride!?!" he demands, blue eyes flashing angrily, "You want power, you want to defeat him, you want revenge! How can you call this revenge!?! The power you have isn't even yours! how can you say you've gotten revenge if you steal it with something that isn't yours!?! You aren't the one getting revenge, Sasuke, Oroichimaru is! Can you live with that!?!"
I growl lowly in my throat, and he leans back on the heels of his feet. There's a hint of a smirk on his mouth; he think's he's won me over. In the blink of an eye, I'm gone -- up and over the walls that have surrounded me since birth, through the forest I've bleed in for so long. I'm running.
"Dammit! Sasuke you bastard!" I hear him curse me in the distance. His presence is getting closer; he's chasing me. I could stop and confront him, but that won't make him leave me alone. So I'm running. Why?
~Don't you have any pride?~
I suppose I don't.

Just a short little thing I wrote about Sasuke. It's always struck me as odd, how Sasuke will use the power from the curse seal when he seems like suck a prideful person. I mean, technically, the power he gets from the seal isn't his, and he's all about beating his brother himself. So why does he try to use the curse? Just some food for thought. ^^
