Unknown Requiem

004

Suzaku and Castiel battle and the victor is Castiel. And he is brought to a private chamber where the secrets begin to unfold about Geass.

The sound steel against steel sounded throughout the garden. As two Knights clashed against one another. Neither giving up grounds to one another. Each had a purpose. One to protect the secrets entrusted to him till he takes his last breath. And the other who strove to learn the truth behind his father. Behind the smoke and mirrors the had been set into place since he was young. He wanted everything to come to surface as what it truly was. Reality. As each swing made contact Castiel grew more agitated. Why wasn't Suzaku fighting back? He had countless opportunities to gain the upper hand yet they remained at a stand still. Why? Angrily Castiel side stepped Suzaku's blade before briefly cutting Suzaku's upper arm. And ultimately pushing Suzaku a few feet away from him. "Taking it easy on me? Is that it?!"Castiel demanded angrily as he threw his blade to the ground with an angry thud. This isn't what he wanted,he wanted a fair fight one between warriors. Not this. Not this one sided battle.

Suzaku knew this would happen,her knew that when this day finally came he would have mixed feelings. Would he give the boy a fair fight? Would he end the boy's dream and crush it into the sand? Or would he allow the boy to win,and have him uncover all the horrid secrets of family? This Suzaku did not know but he did not want to dishonor the young Prince. Thay was something he truly did not desire. Because dishonoring Castiel was the same as dishonoring his dear and most trusted friend Lelouch. And that was something he couldn't bear.

Suzaku quietly kneeled down picking up his katana,and gripping it tightly until his knuckles turned white. "I'll give you the battle you desire. I only hope you will accept the outcome."Suzaku stated before charging at top speed towards the young Prince. Castiel gasped before stepping on the hilt of his blade allowing it to flip into the air. Before effortlessly landing in his grip. Castiel gripped onto his blade before parrying Suzaku's blade with great struggle. The two men struggled against one another although Suzaku had the upper hand currently and was not giving it up.

"So now you fight as a Knight!"Castiel called out as he quickly jumped a few feet away from his teacher. Suzaku took the opportunity as he found himself using every once of his skill to push Castiel at bay. Hoping the young man would give in and realize that according to skill Suzaku was above him. But currently Castiel refused to give up. Slowly regaining his footing the proud prince stood tall in all his glory. The sun overhead beaming down upon him, giving him the looks of a god.

A God that Suzaku had come face to face with many times before. He was a violet and sometimes senseless god,but he was a God none the less. Who's life ended tragically by Suzaku's own hand. Lelouch. Once known as a Prince,a terroist,An Emperor,and afterwards a Demon King. Yet in front of Suzaku stood a different God. One unstained of blood and darkness. But one of true Purity that Suzaku hoped would remain for all eternity. Castiel as his name insinuates one of God. An angel among all who could become a God if pressed.

And by the look in Castiel's eye,the one uncovered by his eye patch. It violet hue glistening in the sunlight along with his snow kissed hair. He was truly something to marvel at. In his eyes Suzaku saw Lelouch who seemed to smile triumphantly towards Suzaku. "Kneel before your Prince."Castiel spoke his tone filled with determination and authority. Authority that Suzaku had never heard from the boy. Only from his father. Suzaku immediately bowed before Castiel who pressed the tip of his blade against his neck.

"Now I've bested you,you will fulfill your promise to me. Uncle."Castiel stated as Suzaku couldn't help but to gaze up upon Castiel with a true smile on his face. "A promise is a promise."Suzaku stated while rising to his feet as he called for a name he has heard quite a few times but never heard her answer to it. "C2."As almost from the darkness itself appeared C2 who had a very pleased smile on her face. It was almost as if she was pleased that a heavy burden would be lifted from her shoulders. "This way,Castiel. We promise there will be no more secrets. Only the truth."She answered as Castiel nodded was quick to follow his aunt.

What was in store for Castiel? What horrid secrets would be told? And most of all who was his father?
