#To Walk with the Devil | Enemy of Britannia!Suzaku

[foreverbehindthismask]

Suzaku didn't care much for music. He never had. It was all just noise in the background and that was putting it lightly.

So forgoing his earlier manners, Suzaku folded his arms and leant back against the door frame. He was confident enough that, should anyone attempt to break in, he could apprehend them regardless of his posture.

So Suzaku closed his eyes, focusing on the sounded of the train wheels scraping along the tracks beneath him. The slight frown on his brow deepened when the music began.

Journeys End

Suzuki paused outside the carriage door, his hand hovering above the keypad. It wasn't that he couldn't recall the code...It was ingrained into his mind, as it had been from day one.

It was more the man behind it. He knew that Lelouch was under Charles' careful watch and that his new charge was of equal, if not more, importance.

Pushing the door open, Suzaku stilled in the doorway, his eyes widening.

He knew they were brothers but...there'd been no mention of him being a twin. The resemblance was unmistakable.

He was Lelouch and yet he wasn't. Biting his tongue and swallowing his malcontent, Suzaku pressed a hand to his chest and bowed.

I spoke to the Devil today  And he swears he's not to Blame  And I understood ‘cause I feel the same 

Arms wide open, I stand Alone I’m not Hero and I’m not made of Stone Right or Wrong, I can hardly Tell

I’m on the Wrong side of Heaven And the Righteous side of Hell.

“Suzaku, don’t do this!”

“Lelouch, I Command You...”

“Live.”

“For Euphemia.”

‘WARNING: CONNECTION LOST. NEURAL LINK TERMINATED.’

To Walk with the Devil

Her hand trembled within his grasp. Fingertips cold beneath his lips as he pressed gentle kisses here and there to try and warm them. They both knew it would do no good, but time was fast running out, so they cherished these last precious moments. Her eyes found his, wide and warm and loving despite the clear signs of fading life. He met her gaze head on, deep green swimming with tears he dare not shed. He must smile for her, until the last moment. “Promise me something...” She breathed, her voice a barely there whisper in the silent room. He nodded, edging the chair closer to lean in. “Anything, my lady.” He swore.  The corners of her mouth lifted in the trace of a smile at this, her breath shallow. “Please...continue to protect my brother...in my stead.” His eyes widened a fraction at such a request, but she continued before he could answer. “I know. You have been friends for a long t-time...and you would d-do so...without question...but...” She trailed off with an inaudible gasp, her lips pale in her struggle for survival. “The path...you tread will be...a lonely one.” He saw tears in her lavender eyes and reached a hand to her cheek, ready to catch them as they fell while never releasing her hand. She smiled again, finding his gaze. “...you both mean...t-too m-much...to me...I couldn’t bear...that for either of you.” He grit his teeth against the surge of emotion he felt, looking to the ceiling a moment to clear his eyes of those tears that he, her Knight, the man who loved her as Euphemia long before he did as Princess, could not dare let her see. Her hand tightened within his, by a hairsbreadth and he looked back, the smile on his lips as genuine as his words. “I Promise.” She smiled once more... Then she was gone.

Suzaku’s eyes opened. The room was still dark, the blinds giving away no trace of morning light as yet. He raised a hand, staring at it a moment before covering his face with a heavy exhale. His head ached, his cheeks were damp, his eyes watery and his heart a steam-hammer in his chest. He dragged his hand down his face and let it fall back against the bed sheets, staring at the ceiling. For a while, the Knight didn’t move. He let his pulse relax, allowed his mind settle on the present...and waited patiently for his heart to let go. Then he sat up, swinging his legs off of the bed and stretching some before standing. Surveying the room, Suzaku noted with minor irritation that he was in the Camelot guest room and not, as he often hoped, in his room back at Ashford. There, he could sometimes forget the brutality of the real world, playing the part of a struggling schoolboy to his hearts content. Here, he was a young man, a pilot and a war hero. Another sigh followed before he moved to the bathroom, washing his face and swallowing down two painkillers with a mouthful of water before vacating the room and dressing. He checked his watch, counting the hours back by six. He had twenty minutes. Suzaku shouldered his bag and slipped out, following the hallway down until the bright light of the main Knightmare field met his eyes and he stilled by the observation platform. Narrowing his eyes, he located the source of his headache. Lloyd was standing by the main computer display that was linked to the Lancelot Albion. Even at a distance, Suzaku could see the eager grin on Asplund’s face and he groaned. Turning away, he ducked into the entryway and followed it down until he reached the main door and let himself out. The night air was cold.

Suzaku raised a brow but didn't bother to question the young man further. He gestured to the couch and turned to leave.

"We'll be departing in five minutes and should arrive in the EU tomorrow morning." He explained curtly, before making his way to the door again. His hands were shaking.

Suzaku paused, his head tilting back to acknowledge the request.

"Do as you wish, your highness, I'm here only as an escort." He replied before taking his place beside the door, straight backed and tense.

He was more of a babysitter than an escort. He'd almost refused once Charles informed him of the task but...that probably wouldn't have ended well. He sighed heavily, tempted to fold his arms and lean against the wall. Take on a posture that would've clearly displayed his disapproval of the situation. But his Pride as a Knight, and thoughts of Euphemia's gentle voice scolding his manners, kept him from doing so.
