[''More than anything, you hate when people die, yet you're in the military. Why is that?''
''I'm in the military to stop people from dying."
"That contradiction might kill you one day..."].
He had almost tricked himself into believing that he was not who he was, but he couldn't. This was not who he had ever wanted to become. A real man of good deeds and unquestionable motives was not one that used people as pawns and declared himself victorious as he laughed at destruction or used the wrong means to get the results of "justice" (this, he bitterly chuckled at).
[Zero is a coward. How can he call himself and his group, the Black Knights of Justice ('Knight of Zero')?]
But it was okay because he was dead – even if his eyes were not closed in an eternal and peaceful sleep, even if his body did not spew blood from his body like a contaminated pool.

When his first, true love died by the hands of his most eminent enemy.
When he discovered his forsworn enemy was his first, true friend.
And he had truly died when he took on the facade of Zero, stabbing the two-faced man who was willing to sacrifice his life to save the world (the ends justify the means, amethyst eyes always liked to argue - and he had somehow regretfully followed and believed it).

[He was a knight of pure (blood-stained) white that would extinguish the depths of morbid black, right?]
He would live on forever and sacrifice his happiness to be someone he had always hated.
This would help him atone for his sins.
This would be his punishment.
This will be his last act of (cowardice) chivalry.
["Suzaku, you are going to be a hero.
The messiah who saved everyone from the enemy of the world, Lelouch Vi Brittania
...as Zero"].
