"You're getting stronger, Sasuke."

Orochimaru watched him take down a hundred men by himself.

"Hn," Sasuke said as he sheathed his katana.

It's not enough. He glared. His eyes narrowing to the sky as he contemplates his next move. He eyes Orochimaru from the side, avoiding his gaze Orochimaru smirks, taking a step forward while keeping his eyes darted to the ground.

"We're getting closer to the transformation. I won't need you just yet, not until you accomplish your goal. In the meantime I have inhabited another body," he said.

"Soon you'll be strong enough to defeat Itachi and Y/N," He snickered. "It seems the Akatsuki is on the move again. Their popularity is growing by the day.

Sasuke narrowed his eyes, watching as the snake approached him.

"You've gotten bigger, Sasuke," He licked his lips.

Sasuke lets out an internal breath sighing in his mind he turns around watching the bodies on the ground, neither one moving.

He watches Orochimaru in silence, sensing the dangerous intent behind his words.

Orochimaru smirks, always a step ahead, "You'll gain the power to kill your siblings soon enough, Sasuke. And then, what will you do with that power? After they're dead?"

Sasuke's hands clench. He knows he's being manipulated, but the thought of gaining strength to destroy Itachi and Y/N keeps him tethered to Orochimaru— for now.

"But revenge is such a hollow goal don't you think?" Orochimaru continued, voice dripping with malice. "What will you do when they're gone? Where will your anger go?"

Sasuke's grip on his katana tightened.

~~

Sasuke flung himself against the walls of the training room, forcing chakra through his limbs, Chidori crackling in his hands. The darkness of Orochimaru's lair seeped into him, fueling his hatred for ltachi and Y/N. Sweat dripped down his forehead, his vision clouded by images of the past-the massacre, the betrayal. He gritted his teeth as the Chidori sparked, burning away his memories.

Orochimaru watches from the shadows.

"You're progressing fast, Sasuke.

But are you ready to face them? Y/ N, Itachi- do you really believe you can destroy them both?"

Sasuke's Sharingan flashed, anger surging. I will kill them. And you— after you've outlived your usefulness.

Kakashi stood on the rooftop of the hospital, staring into the horizon.

The sun was just beginning to rise, casting the village in a warm, golden glow. But the news had cast a shadow over everything.
