A/N: Doing the two songs into one thing again... THANK YOU REVIEWERS!
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters in Naruto. I'm just borrowing them for my story. I also don't own the songs "On your way down" or "The thing I hate", which belong to Stabbing Westward.
Part 12. The Thing I Hate. By bleedformeee
Sasuke was sleeping at the edge of the bridge. He had decided he wouldn't cross until morning. He thrashed around in his sleep...
-x-
He stirred in his sleep. A twig cracked. Of course it did, someone had stepped on it. Immediately, Sasuke's eyes snapped open. He slowly sat up, listening intently, but trying hard not to breathe so the intruder wouldn't hear him. He looked around, but saw only darkness.
"Hello, little brother." Sasuke whirled around and starred up into crimson eyes.
"Itachi!" Sasuke hissed. He reached for his kunai.
"Oh, don't do that, Sasuke. I'm not real."
"What???" Apparently his brother had become a comedian. Sasuke's eyes were beginning to come into focus and he noticed that he was no longer on the Great Naruto Bridge. He was surrounded by trees. 'OH NO! Maybe Itachi somehow slipped me some drugs and carried me off into the woods and was getting ready to beat me over the head when the pills wore off and... and I'm actually going crazy, because that scenario is ridiculous, something Naruto would come up with.' Sasuke looked back into the eyes that so resembled his own.
"You're dreaming." Oh. That made more sense.
/I hope I see you on your way down
I hope you break every bone
I hope it kills you on your way down
And I hope you die alone
All of your hate and all of your lies
Will it be worth it?
When all of your friends refuse to be alibis
Will it be worth it?/
"So, Sasuke, what are you doing out here anyway?"
"Looking for you."
"Why? You don't actually think you're strong enough to defeat me, do you?
"YES! Well, no, not really. I'm not sure. You're confusing me."
"You're wasting your time."
"Don't you think I know that already?" Sasuke was rapidly getting angry at the shrinking of his ego. He had always known he was wasting his time, but he didn't need Itachi--err, dream Itachi telling him so. "Wait a minute... If I already knew that then why did I leave?"
"Because you're pathetic."
"Can you shut up for one minute, OKAY? Thanks." Sasuke pondered his last question. 'I left because I wanted to run away from my friends. I had to... because, when you love people, they betray you. And it hurts. I don't need any more hurt.'
/You greedy fuck you pissed it all away
So who will catch you on your way down?
You've only got yourself to blame
When all your worst fears materialize
Will it be worth it?
There's nobody left who cares you're alive
Was it worth it?/
"That's just like you- to run away from those you trust. Poor little Sasuke didn't want to get hurt. Right when things were starting to heat up too. Pathetic, really." Itachi laughed.
"Shut up." If he heard the word 'pathetic' one more time he was going to... uh, try really hard to wake up!
"I should pay our little pink haired friend a visit. She'd probably like me better anyway. It would be so easy to make her fall for me, since she's already forgotten about you."
Sasuke looked up, eyes filled with hatred.
"She's found someone else, you know? She loathes you now."
"NO! That's not true! You're lying!" It couldn't possibly be true.
/Your life is a contradiction
While you thrive on manipulation
I fight to just hold on to what I believe
I won't become the thing I hate
I won't become the thing I hate
I won't become the thing I hate
I won't become you/
"You disgust her."
"SHUT UP!!!!!!!!"
"Look at yourself. Don't you think that foolishly running off to look for me, and in the process abandoning Sakura is low? It's certainly no better than anything I've ever done."
'He does have a point there.' Sasuke considered that point before answering, "No. I loved you and you betrayed me. You killed our parents."
"Your friends love you and you let them down when you left them. Imagine how Sakura feels." Ugh, there went Itachi making sense again.
-x-
Suddenly Itachi was gone and Sasuke was starring up at the starry night. He was back on the bridge, back to reality. He felt surprisingly calm after his very screwed up dream.
/You've treated me like I'm a worthless piece of shit
You think you're in control but you make me sick
I want to watch you suffer
The way that you've made me suffer
I want to fuck up everything you've ever loved
I won't become the thing I hate
I won't become the thing I hate
I won't become the thing I hate
I won't become you/
The dream was like a revelation for him. He had to rethink his plan of action. He readily decided that he would stop looking for his brother. It was after all, pointless. What would he do when he found him? Yell and stomp his feet? He wasn't strong enough to kill his brother yet and he wasn't fooling anyone. He would have to wait. He would just keep training and wait. And eventually, when he was strong enough, his brother would come to him.
/I'll see you on your way down
I'll see you on your way down
I'll see you on your way down
Way down
Way down
I'll see you on your way down
I'll see you on your way down
I'll see you on your way down/
Now that that decision was out of the way, he had another one to make. 'What am I going to do now? I can't just go back to Konoha, can I? Would they forgive me? Would Sakura forgive me? Would she take me back?' Thinking about what Itachi said was beginning to make him sick. Ugh. It was a dream. A DREAM. She couldn't have found someone else. "She loves ME, only ME," He said possessively. He wasn't sure, but he sure hoped so.
/I won't become the thing I hate
I won't become the thing I hate
I won't become the thing I hate
I won't become the thing I hate
I won't become the thing I hate
I won't become you/
A/N: *tears* This was a hard chapter to write. SO YOU'D BETTER ENJOY IT! I mean... enjoy, tee hee. ^_^ It is one of the longest chapters I've written so far, and there aren't even huge author's notes. Well, I guess the songs do take up a lot of room. I listened to the songs about 19 billion times each and now I can't get them out of my head... I think I'll go cry now. P.S. I was seriously thinking about making Sakura and Kiba get together in the previous chapter, but then I didn't.
