Chapter Two! Be prepared for a twist. Blood and Tears will commence!
(This is dedicated to Northsky and my other frequent reviewers! Thank you guys for all the support! It really helps.)
The two stayed together for a time, both shaking as their tears slowed. Yazoo attempted to stand, but he found this near impossible. He lowered himself back to the ground by Loz. The two brothers didn't speak, knowing each others voices would make tears flow. Loz whimpered and Yazoo looked at him momentarily before taking the trembling Loz into his arms.
"Shh... don't worry... it's...wait..." Yazoo stopped in midsentence, realizing with a shock like lightning, "No Yazoo. Everything's not okay." Yazoo subconsciously(SP?) stroked Loz's hair and stared into space. "Nothing may ever be 'okay' again..." Yazoo sighed. It was best to stop thinking like that. Move on... but... in the end, is ignorace really the way?
Loz sniffled and looked at Yazoo. "Yaz... what's wrong?" Loz said softly, looking at his brother. Yazoo had a strange look on his face... less of a smile, but not quite a smirk. More of a strange twist of the face. (A.N. If you try the expression, make sure there's no one to see you... it's hard... LOL) "Yazoo? Are you listening?" Loz slid his gloved fingers through the bottom of Yazoo's long hair.
Yazoo looked at Loz, broken from his thoughts. "Yes, nii-san. I'm listening." He stared off into the distance. After a moment he looked back at Loz and smiled gently. "Do you remember what Kadaj always used to say?" He looked at Loz, who layed in his arms like a child that had just had a nightmare.
"About what?"
"About moving on. How we would get caught if we stayed in the same place for too long... do you remember?" Yazoo layed his hand on Loz's forehead. " I think we should move on... you know. Just..." He trailed off as Loz pulled himself to a sitting position.
" Forget?" He buried his face in Yazoo's collarbone. " I can't... we can't forget... what if Kadaj comes back? We should be here." Loz looked at Yazoo. " Or are you doubting that Kadaj is strong enough... even in the Lifestream... there could be a chance..." Loz stood up and stared into the horizon.
Yazoo heard this and began to heat at the collar. "He's not coming back!" Yazoo snapped suddenly, with a sharp rise in blood pressure. "He's never coming back, Loz! He. Is. DEAD!" Yazoo breathed heavily, his outburst draining his small energy supply slightly.
Loz cringed at Yazoo's sudden outburst. At the time, Yazoo hit a psycho revolution. He pulled out his Velvet Nightmare and stroked it gently.
"No brother! You can't!" Loz reached for Yazoo and the gun and tripped. "Please... I need you... here..." Loz gasped, the wind knocked out of his lungs.
"Oh Loz... I can't bear it any longer... the pain is so sharp. It hurts..." Yazoo looked at the gun and tears began forming in the corners of his eyes. He slowly lifted the gun to his chest. Loz stared at him in terror.
"No.. please..." Loz begged. He was scared. " The pain... will be... worse if ...you... do that..." He reached out and touched Yazoo's boot softly. "My pain... will.. be worse.. if you do.. that..."
Yazoo walked a few feet to the left of Loz, towards the edge of the bluff. "But Loz... I think... you can live without me. In the state that I'm in... you're better off without me." Yazoo reached for the trigger on his Velvet Nightmare. " I'm sorry..."
"NOOO!!!" Loz screamed and lunged at Yazoo... but alas, he was too late. Yazoo pulled the trigger, but Loz had hit his hand. He shot himself in the chest. Loz's eyes went wide as he watched Yazoo fall to the ground, blood streaming from his chest.
Loz suddenly realized... "I have to do something..."
Suspension... oh so sweet. What will become of Yazoo? Wait until the next chapter to find out. Yeah. I know I'm evil... Bwahaha...
(I didn't shoot Yazoo 'cuz I don't like him. I LOVE HIM!!! I just needed a plot twist.)
