All Is Not What It Seems

"Now Itachi...you asked for it, so here it is at last." Sasuke proclaimed as the skies above roared with thunder, rain, and the young Uchiha's excitement from his dragon flames, getting what he believes will do the trick. "I'll make your death a reality." Sasuke made his way to top of the partially destroyed Uchiha hideout and looked down at his brother.

"This jutsu guides the lighting down from the heavens, all I have to do is merely direct its power right at you." His hands sparked as he summoned his, hopefully, final weapon and he raised his arm. "Come Kirin!" He commanded and the lighting from took shape in the form of a dragon, its eyes just as bloodthirsty for the intended prey as much as its master's. "Now, be gone with a thunder clap." Sasuke brought his hand down to his feet and the Kirin retreated back into the sky before powerful blast of lighting strikes the earth, the impact turning more of the hideout into more rubble.

Next thing the 16 year old found himself, still standing, but within the rubble, believing that he will find body of his estranged brother.

But that is not the case.
