[Something about the situation had already been tense. It had been tense since Sora had changed the feed to video, and even more when he came into the room. But now?
When Sora's forehead connects to the metal of his protector, that's about when Sasuke gets angry enough to just shove Sora away from him and get to his feet.]
I CAN'T FORGIVE HIM. I can't let someone like him live for what he did to me!
[He's angry. He knows he's angry and just knows that Sora's not the one he's angry at. His emotions are getting the better of him, but unfortunately he can't help it anymore. His voice is raised, and although he's not quite shouting he's much louder than he normally is.]
How could someone like you understand? Someone who always has friends close by? You're afraid of losing them, but you don't know what being truly alone really is! You don't know what it's like to have the person you trusted more than anyone betray you, or to have your family ripped away from you forever!
[He's breathing hard by the time he's done, and by then he just... Deflates, his shoulders slumping and arms crossing as his voice drops back to being low.]
You want to know what he did? Five years ago, I stayed out too late training. When I came home, I found my aunts and uncles on the ground, lying in pools of their own blood. I kept looking for someone for help, and what I found was him, standing over our dead parents with his sword still coated in their blood. Our entire clan... That night, he murdered all of them. He killed them to test his strength. After that, just before he left, he told me that if I ever wanted eyes with the power to match his and to become strong enough for him to face in battle, I'd have to kill my best friend.
[His eyes are hot and stinging, and it's harder for him to breathe. Still, nothing changes from that eerily quiet demeanor as he takes a breath before speaking one last time.]
That's why I can't forgive him. Why I have to kill him. And why I refuse to have any friends, or trust anyone else. The only blood I want on my hands is his.
And here comes the rant. /popcorn.gif
