(Author's note- Ok, the title is lame, but it's was the only thing I could think of. This fic probably came to be because I watched the Hades arc again, combined with the fact that I've probably been listening to my friends cry over Milo and Camus for so long... Anyway, please enjoy!)

Camus. When you lived, you said you fought for Athena, that you were on her side. My side.

Now, you live again, but you say you fight for Hades, that you are on his side. The opposite of my side.

Do you even feel anything? Remorse, guilt, anger, regret? Sadness, happiness, anxiety?

…What about love? Did you throw that away as well, along with all other emotions? Did you throw away what I feel so strongly for you?

Hyoga is so broken up now. You can see it on his face, his very cosmos is filled with pain. His sensei, his father, one of his reasons to live just went to the opposite side.

And what about me, Camus? Have you given any thought to me? Or have you thrown me away as well?

I can't read your thoughts anymore. I can't tell what you are feeling as you stand there. I could tell before. Even though you appeared expressionless, slightest things, like the twitching of a facial muscle, showed you were annoyed. The tiniest flinch showed you where hurt, either by words or wounds. But that isn't happening anymore. You did throw everything away just for life, didn't you?

How come you are the only one paining me this much? Why isn't Saga or Shura affecting me as much? Why is it that you being on Hades' side a greater pain to me than Shaka dying? Why can't I just forget, throw away my own emotions and kill you?

How could you just abandon everything? Doesn't the word loyalty mean anything to you? Doesn't the word honour mean anything to you? Doesn't Hyoga and his feelings mean anything to you?

…Don't I mean anything to you?

Camus, can't you remember? All the childhood memories, when I got hurt and you healed me. All the times when I was an idiot and got into trouble, and you helped me. All those hours we spent together, sitting in either the Scorpio or Aquarius temple, just enjoying each other's companionship. All the nights when I couldn't fall asleep, and I would come to your temple, and you would let me sleep beside you, in your bed.

…And what about all those promises we made to each other? We made many. We both broke a few minor ones. But there was one which we agreed we would never break. The promise that we would always stand together.

And you threw all of that away just by stepping into the Sanctuary.
