I'm not a criminal, merely an executor of necessary tasks... Remember, Sasuke, everything I've ever done has been for you.

I did what I had to do to protect you. They were too weak to be your parents.

You don't have to. I know that you will never forgive me, but that doesn't change my intentions. I'm sorry for what I've done, but I can't let you live in a world of weakness.

I know you do. But someday, you'll understand why I had to do it.

*Sighs, watching Sasuke go* He's still so young. I hope he can forgive me someday.
