Author's Notes
: This drabble came about because of a "fake fic meme" started on livejournal with my friends. The rule was to write something that must look like it was taken from a bigger fic. It was made upon request; the person gave the fandom they wanted and 3 keywords. Then we had to write. This is what I came up with. Written for Scorpioyue.
Disclaimer: I don't own Saint Seiya or any of its characters. I'm writing this purely for personal enjoyment.

What Its Feels Like To Drown

By Shadow Arashi

"Why did you change? What made you turn to such a dark path Kanon? "

Of all the questions Saga could have asked of him, this was the last he could answer. Not for lack of will mind you, but Saga just wouldn't understand his reasoning. His twin had always been so innocent to most things around him, at least when it concerned the darker side of the humanity he loved to protect. He would have to put a new definition on what he calls evil first for him to even came close to see the full extend of what he was asking.

Innocence was sweet and addictive. It draws you like the moth to the flame.

Innocence is a curse and as such humans always have the imperious desire to destroy that innocence. God know he had lost his a long time ago, back when he was still too young to wrap his mind around the concept. He guessed he had to thank his and Saga's lucky stars for that.

"Don't look at me with such pity in your eyes Saga; I knew what I was doing. It was my choice, if not a very smart one. Goodness is overrated anyway."

"Kanon! Yo-"

"You are so naïve brother…. In the end it is that sweet nature of your which is dangerous. It got me dragged over and into the deep end after all. Because of it I couldn't see what I should have notice from the beginning."

Only silence greeted his words this time. Kanon smiled, though there was no emotion behind it, no feelings. The sound of water rushing to crash against the rocks of Sounion Cape seemed a song only meant for him as he looked away from the blank look on his brother's face and toward the waves bellow them.

"Do you know that drowning can actually feel soothing Saga?"

He whispered, entranced even as he took a step closer to the cliff. Just one more step and he knew he would be flying downward if he wished. His empty smiled widened as he spread out his arms, leaning backward and eyes closed with a blissful expression.

He wanted to fly right now.
