Naturally, he paused as her voice rose up above the merry popping song of her camp fire. Perhaps he had been a fool to serve her the truth so readily first time the two had met. He had been bolder and younger then, and he could today recognize that day as a day where he had made a foolish move. Others had drawn impossible connections in the past, and so did she. But he could bear having his half-sibling hating him. So many did already, and it didn’t sting unless their weapons sank into his flesh and forced it on him. Eclipse was not a part of his life, and he didn’t want her to be. She was a mere stranger, shallowly connected to him because others claimed that family mattered.
”Your father is dead,” he confirmed, voice lacking the tone it should have when a son talked about his dead father. But objectivity had allowed him to know the monster that had created him, and Itachi hadn’t approved of the thought of allowing the man continue to roam freely without consequence. His mother would never thank him for his deed, but that wasn’t what he was out after. His hand had leaped to pierce through the other man’s body, and that was all there was. Itachi was one of many children that should never have existed.
”I know because I was the one that murdered him.” It wasn’t the sound of a bomb dropping. It’s wasn’t much of anything, only the honest truth, spoken by a creature that didn’t care. But he didn’t like the thought of her sitting waiting and hoping for someone that would never ever return to protect her from the world.
