Summary: Lance erases Red's memory.
"Why?" Red asked.
Lance half smiled, as he kissed him, ignoring his question. Red pulled away and put his hands on his hips.
"Lance, tell me! What are you doing…?"
"I'm sorry." The Dragon Master said. "But it is much safer to keep you safe this way… otherwise, should word of this reach the other Elite Four, your life may be forfeit."
Red stared at Lance, aghast, and he was dimly aware of Lance pressing his fingertips to his temples. With a sigh, the Champion swooned.
Lance caught him carefully; his hands still glowing faint blue with Viridian's Power. It was not a well-known ability, but since the power enabled one to read minds, sometimes… changes were necessary.
Red would most likely forget all evidence of their relationship for a time, and perhaps, it would be enough time for him to put his plan into motion. And then? Well, the future waited.
He kissed the boy one last time and vanished.

Dissociation is when you are unable to reach a memory in your brain… the memory is there, but not accessible. (From Introductory Psychology, 7th Edition by James Kalat)
