Some Speculation

[kunoichi-jaden.livejournal.com]

I was just wondering...

Am I the only person that thinks Sasuke is going to be, for lack of a better term, owned by Itachi when they meet up again?

And this isn't at all based on the fighting strength of the two characters, we're aware that both of them are pretty powerful by now. I think that Sasuke will lose again because he's in for one of Kishimoto's Major Moral Lessons. And I'm pretty sure that it'll be something along the lines of "No matter how far you go to achieve your goals, you can't expect to truly succeed if you abandon your friends."

I mean, yay for Emo-boy if he even manages to lay a scratch on Weasel-nii-chan, but there's really no lesson for Sasuke if he succeeds by abandoning everyone. That's not a shounen hero-story type of resolution, right?
