Death
Disclaimer: Don't own anything, blahblahblahblah...
"Aniki, where does your spirit go when you die?"
"To Heaven, Paradise, Land of the Cranes, somewhere peaceful."
"Then why does everyone fear death if your spirit goes somewhere nice?"
"…"
"Aniki?"
"People like to fear the unknown"
"If it's so unknown, how do you know that is where the spirits go?"
"It must be someplace nice."
"Why?"
"Do you think we were born, just to die in some years?"
"… No…"
"So the place must be better than here"
"Why were we made to live here first if Paradise is so much better?"
"Well, we need someplace to enjoy later. If we live in Paradise first, then die to come to Earth, wouldn't it boring?"
"I suppose so."
"Besides, by the time death comes, you've probably already done all the things you have wanted to do."
"So death is a nice thing."
"No, you leave your loved ones to cry and mourn for you. It makes them want to stop living, even though it is not yet their time to."
"But if they die…"
"Yes?"
"If they die, won't it be a good thing?"
"How would it be a good thing, Sasuke?"
"They would be together with their family."
"Yes… but they would also have loved ones that want to die."
"True"
"Then, sooner or later, the whole world would be gone because there is no one living there."
"Lot's of people are still have though, why, Aniki?"
"There are brave people who believe…"
"Believe what?"
"Believe their loved ones are having a good time in Paradise, Heaven. So they live, for loved ones."
"Some people die for other people. Why?"
"Sometimes, to save someone they love very much."
"Would you die for me, Aniki?"
"…"
"Would you?"
"…Yes…"
"Then I would too."

I recommend you read MaryZhang's "To Die For You" fanfiction next.It's in the form of a poem that follows this fic. (To read, it's in my favourites) Thank you for reading. This strangely also came to me in a dream. For those who couldn't figure it out, it's Sasuke talking to Itachi. Sasuke speakes first.
