"Trying for what?" Sai glared at the other man now, hands clenched tightly. "What am I trying to be? ROOT, the mission, it's all I've ever known. If I try to become something different, then all of that is gone. I won't be allowed back into the organization if we managed to return home." Would he? Not if he developed his emotions. Danzo already didn't approve of him making friends.

Feelings were a weakness in ROOT. It wasn't all right to want to explore them as long as he was a part of it. He was going against the very fundamental nature of the organization and if continued along that path there wouldn't be an opportunity to turn back. He didn't have any wants. So how did he know what he wanted??
