Why did he fight?
That was a question that many people had asked him over the years. Some had thought it was because of sheer arrogance, some dismissed it as foolhardiness and an inability to keep his temper.
Maybe that was true, but that wasn't the reason he fought.
Even when they had beaten him bloody, and thrown him out of the compound. Even when they had called him the worst kinds of names as they heaved his broken body over the wall. He came back the next day and continued to fight.
So why did he fight?
It was a question that the people he was fighting also pondered upon. Some said that it was because he couldn't stand the thought of letting things go, others felt that it was because he was trying to get back at a world that had treated him harshly.
Perhaps that was true, but that wasn't the reason he fought.
Even when they had sealed away both of his chakra sources. Even when they had banded together to conspire against him and had speeded up the arrangements for her wedding.
Why did he fight?
The answer was so simple.
Because behind the walls of that house, a woman with pearl eyes believed that he would come for her.
For that alone, he fought.
