Sorry for the lack of posts yesterday, it was the first Friday I didn't have to study for AP's and so I celebrated my butt off. And it looks like the Naruto manga was celebrating with me as the
400th chapter came out; that's right, count'em, 400 chapters! And as Sasuke's whole world comes crashing down around him, how will he handle more news of Itachi's true identity?

The shocking news that the Uchiha had planned a coup d'etat against the Leaf Village is a tremendous shock to Sasuke, as is the news that Itachi was a double spy for his clan
and the Village. It turns out that when Itachi was a child, he lived through a terrible war that was burned into his memory, turning him into a person who wished for peace above all else. Unfortunately, for the sake of this peace, he was ordered to murder the entire Uchiha clan before they became too much for even the Fire Country to handle. He sought out Uchiha Madara and offered him a deal; in exchange for helping him wipe out the Uchiha clan, Madara would not touch the Leaf Village.

The two of them successfully completed the mission; however, Itachi refused to kill Sasuke. He did everything in his power, from pleading with the Third Hokage to threatening Danzou, to ensure that Sasuke would be kept safe from bodily harm and the truth about his family. And his final act was to set up the fight between him and Sasuke, so that he would die by his little brother's hand while giving him a new power. Sasuke's face begins to turn eerily blank as he insists that Madara must be lying. Could this new knowledge be too much for him to handle?
