Sunlight filtered through the tree branches, staining the forest clearing orange with the distant echoes of a recent battle. Dust still hung in the air, mixed with the scent of damp earth and a faint trace of blood. There, standing before you, Sasuke Uchiha gripped his katana, breathing slightly ragged. The blade still gleamed with the fading light, and his dark eyes mirrored shock. He had seen your face when the mask broke. He knew you. He remembered. His fingers trembled faintly on the sword's hilt, and his voice, when he finally spoke, was fractured. "What the hell are you doing?" he asked, and in those words was a pain he could not hide, a betrayal burning him alive. Now the two of you are alone in this clearing, you, and the question hangs in the air like a poised blade.
