"You know you can't win! You can't destroy what I really am! Even if you manage to kill this body, someone even stronger would surface and take my place! Not one death will go unaccounted for, not one!" - Unknown

"Why do I have to fight with such a strong guy? I envied the weak ones. The souls of everyone in our group of friends wasted away and disappeared just from being around us. From loneliness we divided our soul in two. We don't know which was the original, or maybe it was neither of us. It's just that there was no other way to escape from the loneliness. I envied the weak ones. If you're weak, then you can gather in as large a group as you want. I want to become weak and if that's not possible, then I at least want to make friends that are as strong as me." - starrk (bleach)

Kabuto study the scene before him while he tried to catch his breath. "Why are you helping me?" Itachi turned his head a little so he could look at Kabuto with one eye.

"My reasons are my own." Itachi stated as he turned to face Madara and Sasuke. Sasuke gritted his teeth before he couldn't take it anymore.

"Why are you in our way?" Sasuke yelled out drawing Itachi's attention to his brother. "Can't you see that after we take care of him we can have our revenge on Konoha."

"Why would I want to destroy my home?" Itachi looked at the confused look on Sasuke's face.

"Home they forced you to kill our fam-." Itachi quickly interrupted his brother.

"They didn't force me." Itachi stated quite plainly. "Sarutobi-sama gave me the choice of either taking the mission or allowing someone else to carry it out. I took it because I knew that it would be less likely for a giant civil war to break out if I did it."

"But why?" Sasuke couldn't believe his ears as Itachi looked at Sasuke with sadness.

"Because of what the Uchiha clan was planning." Itachi glared at Madara who shrugged his shoulders. "But you didn't turn out the way I wanted you too. You were suppose to stay in Konoha and continue to get stronger and then you were to come find me and take my life restoring the Uchiha clan's honor. Yet you continued down this path and look were you are now."

"I have power that is were I am!" Sasuke screamed out in anger. "I did this all to kill you, but now I'm doing this to destroy Konoha. That is why Kabuto has to die that way I'm one step closer to avenging our clan. Please brother help us destroy the village that made you become a traitor."

Itachi just shook his head and glared at his brother. "Kabuto run." Kabuto grunted to show he was listening. "Run far and run fast."

"What type of trick is this?" Kabuto glared at Itachi's back, but soon found him in the air with Itachi holding him by one hand.

"Do you want to die?" Itachi growled as he kept his eyes focused on Madara and Sasuke. "Then run and don't stop until you reach this area. There is someone who can help you a great deal." Itachi passed Kabuto a tiny piece of paper confusing him as Itachi threw him. Kabuto spun in mid-air and landed on the ground before taking off. Sasuke was about to run after him when Itachi stepped in his way.

"If you want Kabuto you will have to kill me first." Itachi looked on emotionless at his brother who looked shocked. Madara on the other hand was having a conflict within his own mind.

"If I go after Kabuto then Itachi will be alone with Sasuke." Madara gritted his teeth. "But if I stay here Kabuto will get away and who knows how long it will take me to locate him again." Eventual Madara chose to stay which made Itachi smile.
