Are you feeling better, can you go home again?
It looks untouched ... ...
You were lying there next to me ... right?
Kakashi brought you back to Konoha just like me ... ... right?

No ... ...
It's pointless ... ...
You are not here, you are far away.
I didn't make it ... ...
I have failed... ...
And someone like me want to be Hokage ...?!
Ridiculous.
I couldn't even help you, how am I supposed to do that with a whole village?
I turn back again, curl up.
My eyes are tired, wanting to rest in the dark.
But I see something ... ...
On the bedside table ... ...
I reach out my hand for it, every muscle in it hurts like hell.
But I'll grab it ... ... hold it in my hand ... ...

It's your headband ... ...
I know, because there is my scratch on it ... ...I pull it up to me, it is folded neatly.
First tears form in my eyes, they find their way down my cheeks.
I'm so sorry Sasuke ... ...
I couldn't save you ... ...
The last I saw of you was the sad expression on your face ... ... ...

Your face... ...
You didn't want to go ... ...
You wanted to stay, but you couldn't ... ...

Now I understand.
Just like you, I'm still too weak.
But I will change that.
I'll be strong, I'll be Hokage, and then I can get you back.
When I've achieved my goal, I'll pull you back.
Back into the light.
Back home.
Back to me because you are my family.

I'll make it someday ... ...
I know you will also wait for me stronger and more patiently until we can go the same way again together.
Wait for me because I will come.
Wait for me because I will get strong.
Wait for me, I made you a promise ... ...

A rival's promise ... ... ...
A friend's promise ... ... ...
The promise of a brother to whom you mean everything ... ... ... ...
