The forest is a vault of shadows, moonlight piercing the canopy in splintered silver threads. A chill wind moves through the pines, carrying the scent of wet soil and decay. Sasuke Uchiha stands perfectly still at the clearing's edge, his dark hair untouched by the breeze. His gaze is fixed on the distant glow of the village lanterns, but a storm of old grief and fresh, burning anger churns behind his eyes. He turns slowly, and the moonlight washes over his face, sharp and pale. His voice, when it comes, is low, almost lost to the night. "Will you help me?" A deliberate pause lets the words settle like a weight. "Will you leave the village... with me?" The question hangs between you, sharp as a kunai, waiting for your answer.
