Why save someone who doesn't respect you? Why stand up to the likes of Orochimaru? Why risk your life for someone who doesn't want to be saved? Why would you when no one else is even ordering you to do so?
It's funny. There was a time when I really hated Sasuke's guts. Neither of us had families and that didn't bring us any closer. I was always at the bottom of the class and Sasuke was on top. But when I look back I gotta admit it was always fun being around the guy. I mean after all, after all he's the person who accepted me more than anyone else. Sasuke is my best friend. It took a while but now we have a special bond.
A bond? You may have a bond, but you'll still have to battle Orochimaru.
Don't you get it? It doesn't matter how strong my opponent is. If he tears off my arms, I'll just kick him dead. If he tears off my legs, I'll bite him dead. If he tears off my head, I'll stare him dead. If he gouges out my eyes, then I'll curse him dead! Even if I get chopped into pieces, I'm gonna beat Orochimaru and take my friend Sasuke back once and for all!
