AN: Alright thanks to the few people who actually chose to review, your words were a big help to me this past week.*HUGS* any-who, this chapter and maybe the last one too, the sentences were a little (majorly) weird and broken. I did this on purpose, not ‘cus I have bad grammar skills, (which I still do but that’s beside the point) but because I’m trying to make it sound like Zero is going just a little nuts being in that suit. Some moments he will have clear straightforward thoughts and other moments its going to be jumbled and broken and just plain weird.

Ch. 2 Keep Breathing
The suns were shining. Did that mean she was dead? His already torn heart bled a little more. He kept breathing.
How many times had that thought struck him now? Maybe he shouldn’t think about that. Maybe it would be better to go back.
Back into the memories that kept him safe.
He remembered the first day he saw her, the real Azkadellia. The sweet smile that played on her ruby red lips, when she first greeted him. The way her hand felt against his, so small and soft against his large ungraceful ones.
He let the feelings of that day flow through his tormented mind.
They would talk for as long as possible. Often it was about a different life they dreamed about, one without the witch. She was not a princess and he was not a killer.
They would have met and married soon after because they knew nothing could stop the love they felt. How could anyone resist her beauty and not fall madly in love with her.
They would have had three children; two girls and a boy. I would be such a good father. Such a good husband. Never like Him.
But that wasn’t right. Zero had never had Azkadellia as a wife, never had any little ones with her. Never in his life had he been so fortunate to know what it was like to hold his own child.
Instead of a life full of happiness, he learned to serve and survive young.
And she…she was broken young. Taken by the black shadow in the cave. Always to know fear and never to feel.
But maybe she was alive, and maybe she could feel again and everything was okay. As long as she was happy, he did not care what happened to his malevolent soul.
It was still a cruel thing for fate to bring her into his arms then take her and the feelings she brought, away.
I bet she hasn’t even thought about you. The Cains probably never even told anyone where you are.
Shut up!!
No one cares where you are because no one likes you, much less loves you, boy.
Be it by honor or revenge Cain would not forget!!
Don’t you know, he only has room on his mind for the little princess. You are not worth a thought. He was always better than you; he will not fail his love like you did.
Zero repeatedly slammed his forehead into the oval window. Warm blood oozed its way down his temple and into his eyes. His breath came out in short bursts causing the window to fog.
When everything was taken from him, hate was all he ever had left.
