Characters: Lelouch doasisay and Suzaku swordofzero
Setting: Dorm floor 2; after Lelouch meets heartless!Rolo in the cafeteria on Feb 14th.
Format: Whatevs lulz
Summary: Lelouch escaped from Rolo and his knife skills, now he's trying to get back to his room or to find someone who can help him. First persom that would be? Suzaku. Unfortunately he's heartless too.
Warnings: Violence, wibbles, mean words, blood, tears, etc.

Escaping from Rolo wasn't an easy feat at all. In fact, he actually tried to knock his own brother out to get him to stop. Something was wrong and Lelouch wondered if others had also been affected by this. If they had...were they just attacking others? And what of the note on his collar? There's no way his actual heart had been stolen. His mind might have been altered... But why wasn't Lelouch affected? Had he not been chosen for this "game" or whatever it might be?

He didn't want to think about it anymore because it bothered him. Not only that, but the throbbing pain in his arm from the knife wound was also bothering him. He didn't realize it before, but Rolo had really done a number on him. Even with all of the small cuts from trying to get away from the other, they didn't hurt as much as the gash on his arm.

He was tired and he just wanted to rest and sleep. Maybe if he just locked himself in his room, he could figure something out later. He just...needed a rest...

Climbing up the stairs to his floor, he started to head to his room but stopped to lean on a wall. He was still breathing hard from running away. Lelouch almost felt silly...he came to a new place and still wasn't able to keep up with everyone. Maybe all of these weird thoughts were because he was in shock. And maybe he was also seeing things... Was someone coming towards him? Maybe not. He wasn't going to say anything as he lowered his head and closed his eyes tight.

Comments

[swordofzero]

"Nothing about me and Rolo is the same." The anger grew stronger at the mention of the other boy.

His face twisted into a sneer, "Never stopped you before." He pointed out with a sharp laugh, not a happy one. But bitter and angry.

[doasisay]

Now that Lelouch is closer to him, he's going to look at him for a moment. That is the same painted heart on his cheek that Rolo had.

"Did you have a tag on your collar when you woke up this morning?" Lelouch ignored what he said again. He almost wanted to roll his eyes but that might have made him even more angry. Suzaku's bitter laugh was hurtful but he wasn't even sure why it was.

[swordofzero]

"A tag, what are you talking about?" Suzaku's tone was angry, and if Lelouch was to inspect him he would see a tag on the back of his cloak.

Suzaku glared at him angry that he would ask such a thing.

[doasisay]

"The tag that says you've lost your heart." He glanced behind him, seeing a tag and he gave a bit of a sigh, "You have one, I see it. Once I get patched up, I will help you both."

Suzaku's anger didn't deter Lelouch from wanting to help the both of them. He just ignored them and what they were saying. Now Lelouch began to try to pull his arm away carefully.

[swordofzero]

"Why would you think I would need help off you." He shook his head, "You can't even help yourself."

He shook his head, "You can't help anyone Lelouch, you only destroy."

[doasisay]

"Suzaku, please stop talking. You're speaking nonsense. I've never destroyed anything." He paused, trying again to tug his arm away, "I can't help myself right now because you won't let me. What is it that you want me to do?"

[swordofzero]

"You destroy everything you touch, even if you mean to build it up again." He let go of his arm. "Just go away. I don't want to talk to you."

[doasisay]

"Suzaku," Now he's curious and he feels really bad. Even though he does know that Suzaku isn't himself.

"Does this have something to do with something that happened at home--in the world we both came from? Britannia, I mean." Now he was just stalling. Sometimes he had to really remember that they both came from the same world, "I just want to know if this is why you truly hate me."

[swordofzero]

Suzaku glared anger blazing in his eyes. "It has everything to do with what happened at home."

He took a breath, he hated talking to Lelouch like this, when he didn't remember, when he was so calm. It infuriated him.

"Come with me."

[doasisay]

"Where are we going? I need some bandages." He paused, frowning, " Suzaku, I don't know what I did to you...but I'm sorry and I'm sorry that you're so angry about it."

[swordofzero]

"You will get some." He snapped leading Lelouch to his room first, grabbing some bandages from his trunk and throwing them at the other boy.

"Keep following."

[doasisay]

Lelouch stops, letting Suzaku hit him with the bandages. He lets them fall onto the floor and looks rather surprised. After a moment, he looks up and frowns at Suzaku.

"If this is how you really feel, then why should I follow you?"

[swordofzero]

Suzaku didn't answer, he just kept walking, leading the way down the stairs, seeking a non powered floor. It was up to Lelouch if he followed or not, if not then it was no problem for Suzaku, he would just be glad to be rid of him.

[doasisay]

Annoyed, but still more worried about the other than anything else, Lelouch kept on following. He had picked up the bandages and was doing his best to try to wrap his arm up.

[swordofzero]

Suzaku got to the shining step and stood on it, moving to the hanging gardens, a non powered floor and waited, to see if Lelouch would follow.

[doasisay]

Lelouch waited for a moment, looking around at this place. It was the same place as last time that they went to. Did this place hold some sort of significance to Suzaku?

Before he could even ask, Charles' geass had been undone. It was like a flash of light in front of his eyes each time it happened as his real memories flooded back. It always took him just a few seconds to sort through them all before he could speak or do anything.

He finally did, looking over to Suzaku as he stepped over towards him. This time, he casually threw the rest of the bandages at the other's chest. He looked annoyed more than anything else, if not bored.

"What is it now, Suzaku?"

[swordofzero]

Suzaku didn't step back, just glared at him. "Just got sick of you acting pathetic, figured if you were going to bug me you could at least be actual you instead of a fake pathetic student."

He shook his head, almost disgusted.

[doasisay]

"So you brought me here just to say that?" Lelouch raised a brow, giving a sigh. He looked at Suzaku's collar again with the tag on it.

"Any idea where that might be? Or do you not want it back? Would you rather be heartless like this?"

[swordofzero]

"I brought you hear so you would understand what I was saying rather than being a clueless idiot."

He glared at him, "There's nothing wrong with my heart."

[doasisay]

"Oh? You don't like how I am? You have no one to blame but yourself for that." He rolled his eyes.

"Where is it, Suzaku? You're not this angry, so your emotions aren't right because you've lost it. How you even lost it in the first place... I don't know." Lelouch gave a sigh, looking around, "I can only help you on floors like this, anywhere else and I won't remember again. Oh, and tell your friend Rolo to stay away from me. The next time he tries to stab me will be his last."

[swordofzero]

"Yes because you were completely innocent in what happened."

His eyes blazed with anger, "I wouldn't be alive without my heart and so I can't have lost it, your Geass would have seem to that."

He smirked, a very strange look on Suzaku, "Rolo is no friend of mine, but I'm glad to see he's finally seen what a waste of time his precious big brother is."

[doasisay]

"I wasn't, but what you did was uncalled for. Especially since I thought we were friends. Did you even think about that for a moment before you turned me in? Or did you just blindly follow everything they told you?!"

"Too bad, I don't have it. If you're asking me to kill you, I just might at this point." Lelouch watched him, almost shivering when he smirked. It was devious and not something that Suzaku usually had on his face, "He...isn't my brother! He never has been! He's an imposter!"

[swordofzero]

"I thought we were friends too." Suzaku told him, eyes blazing, "I don't know why." He couldn't stand him at the moment, and it was hard to imagine ever having liked him. "You lied to me, you betrayed me first."

He glared, "You want to kill me? Like you could." He laughed, a bitter angry sound and just shook his head.

[doasisay]

"We were friends. You ran off to prove something by joining Britannia. I withheld information from you because you were my enemy."

He paused, looking down, "No, you still are my enemy."

[swordofzero]

"You left first." Suzaku glared at him, "You lied to me, you lied to everyone, you killed... you..." His eyes blazed as anger burst forward.

"You killed Euphemia, you use your Geass with no thought of what happens to those around you. We are enemies because you harm and destroy, it is all you ever do."

[doasisay]

"It wasn't on purpose! You weren't there! You don't know everything like you think you do, Suzaku!"

[swordofzero]

"Then that is just proof that you don't think." Suzaku shook his head, "You do things without even considering the consequences. Just like the Geass you cast on me."

[doasisay]

"You don't understand, that's what--" he paused, looking confused, "I haven't...what are you talking about?! I never used my geass on you because you were my friend! What happened with Euphemia was an accident. I couldn't control what I was doing. I wouldn't have done that to her... I cared for her, Suzaku. I was going to have her help me!"

[swordofzero]

"Yes you did." Suzaku looked surprised, wondering why he couldn't remember. But it wasn't enough to stem the anger, "Or don't you remember ordering me to live to save your own skin?"

[doasisay]

"...I never did that. You're making things up."

[swordofzero]

"Why can't you remember?" Suzaku was furious, and confused. How could he remember Euphemia but not what had happened when Schneizel had ordered him to hold Zero.

[doasisay]

"Because it never happened-- I've never used my geass on you! You're lying and wanting me to feel guilty about something that I've never done!" He glared, moving to shove the other, "Stop it, Suzaku! You're the one who lied and betrayed me!"

[swordofzero]

"Of course it happened." Suzaku screamed back, shoving Lelouch hard. "All you ever do is lie. Who is Zero but a master of lies?"

[doasisay]

"You don't know anything, Suzaku! You don't understand any--" He was pushed back hard, falling onto the floor. He just sat there, glaring up at the other.

[swordofzero]

"No it's you that doesn't understand anything." Suzaku told him angrily, glaring down at him from where he stood.

[doasisay]

"Shut-up and go away, Suzaku! You make me so angry every time I see your face! You sct like you've never done anything wrong. What i was doing was for the good of man kind and if you couldn't see that, then you're more of an idiot than I originally thought."

[swordofzero]

"You only ever acted for the good of you. And Nunnally." He shook his head, "You're the one who acts like they only worked for good, when they killed so many people."

[doasisay]

"I did it for the good of the entire world! Britannia needed to be stopped and no one else was going to stop them!"

He got up, minding his arm as he staggered a little when he got to his feet, "I did hurt a lot of people... And I hadn't meant to do that."

[swordofzero]

"You did." His eyes blazed, "You don't think about others, you don't see them as any more as pieces on a chessboard."

[doasisay]

"...I will admit that I have done that before. But it was all for a common goal!"

[swordofzero]

"A common goal doesn't help those who are dead, or those whose families are dead."

[doasisay]

"...You're right." He was trying to end this conversation as soon as he could. Suzaku wasn't in a nice mood and it was getting on his nerves.

[swordofzero]

"Is that all you have to say?" Suzaku sneered, "I'm right and all you did was for nothing."
