Monster

Sasuke would never refer to any of his actions as humane. He was not humane; he was someone that abandoned everyone that cared about him, causing deaths left, right and centre. Blinded as he was by hatred and misunderstanding, he never realised what he had until it was gone, never to be salvaged. Even for a shinobi, his life was twisted beyond all comprehension. He didn't regret it, either, until he was once again faced with what he left behind. Sakura reached out to him in joy as they were finally reunited but he recoiled in shame.

"You deserve better."
