Summer is for sorrow

Characters: Suzaku Kururugi and you
Setting: Graveyard, floor 11
Format: Either
Summary: As spring turns to summer Suzaku realises Nunnally is gone and then storm watches.
Warnings:

[Graveyard] The heat was unbearable, the rain had been bad but Suzaku had never like summer. Too many bad memories came with the heat of summer and as he slowly made his way to the graveyard he suspected another was about to be added to the list.

His flight suit clung to him uncomfortably, his cloak was abandoned in his trunk. He was silent as he entered the graveyard floor and began to study each grave, hoping beyond all hope that the one he was looking for wasn't there.

Except it was, of course it was. Not much showed on Suzaku's face, he just reached out to steady himself on the headstone.

Nunnally vi Britannia

He had to find Lelouch... He stood up, feeling dizzy, it felt strange to be so dehydrated after all the rain just the day before.

[Floor Eleven] This was almost worse than the dry heat of before, the air was heavy and choking. Suzaku had spent the day searching for food to give out to those he knew and fighting off the fire monsters. He had ended on this floor, the waterfall that usually spilled over the tower was gone, yet there was thunder rolling in the distance and the room lit up with lightning.

Suzaku had once tried to escape off this floor, he and Link, a crazy badly thought out escape using bedsheets. His first 'death'.

He sat down at the edge, dangling his feet off the side of the tower and looking out into the fog as the air grew heavier and the storm began. It suited his mood, pressure and sorrow ready to explode. Nunnally was gone, her soul lost to her dead world, perhaps forever. Things had seemed helpless for a long time, since another summers day long ago when the distant rumbling wasn't thunder but approaching war.

Yet somehow things had gotten worse... And now they were stuck, lost souls in a tower of madne...

His eyes flashed red and Suzaku blinked in confusion from where he stood at the other end of the floor, walking slowly back towards where he had sat he saw the scorch mark, and another bold of lightning striking not far from him explained what had just happened.

Then don't worry about it! You're only human! Come on, you hungry? I could hunt us some thing and cook it easily!

All right~! That's the spirit! I can easily get us some thing big!

Now, where can we find some beasts to beat up?
