Warnings: Copious amounts of angst (what can I say? Angst is fun!)

Euphemia had not been at breakfast, well Suzaku did not think she had been at breakfast. She hadn't came and talked to him anyways, she usually did because she knew that Suzaku didn't recognise her so couldn't approach her. He had even asked a few people who he knew knew her and none of them had seen her.

He had asked Mei who had told him that Euphemia hadn't been in bed when Mei had woken. That was strange and so Suzaku was entering Red Dorm to see if she had returned to her room. He knew something was up the moment he entered, it was empty. He moved over to Euphemia's bed there were two objects on it, a charm that Suzaku recognised as a memory charm and a ring. Suzaku went cold and hoping that this didn't mean what he thought it might. Feeling slightly worried he opened the cupboard above the bed, it was empty.

She was not the first one, which was why Suzaku had guessed, people had been disapearing all week. He had seen the girl who dissapeared before everyones eyes in the tournament. All Euphie's things were gone, there was a charm and a ring on her bed....

It hit him... Euphemia was gone... he sat down heavily. He was trembling, she couldn't be gone... she couldn't be... She had been here yesterday, they had spoken and now...

Absantly he picked up the charm, all at once he wasn't in the room in the Red dorm but outside, on grass. Lelouch was there, younger than he had been when Suzaku had met him, and Nunnally, Nunnally walking towards another girl who it took Suzaku a moment to realise was Cornelia, a child Cornelia. They laughed and all of a suddon Suzaku was back in the Red Dorm.

Euphie was gone, yet the charm he was holding in his hand, that was part of her. Her memory, it was in his mind now, like his own memories. Trembling he picked up the ring, it had a symbol on it but he didn't know what it meant. He slipped it on to his finger anyways, it was Euphies. And Euphy was gone.

He was still numb; he had lost Euphemia before and this time she had just disapeared, it was still unreal to him, he stumbled out the room and through the partly opened door into the room oposite saw a flash of red hair. Sora.

"Sora... Euphie, she's gone..." He didn't know why he blurted it out at her, just he knew her and she was there and he had to tell somebody. He blinked away tears.

Sora had slept in that morning. When she'd woken up, the room was empty, the sun was high in the sky and she was both sleepy and confused. Why hadn't Yuki woken her up? Or at least left a note... When she managed to roll out of bed, the answer was clear. Yuki's bed was spotless, sheets and covers clean and neat without a single fold, and the familar glint of silver had caught Sora's eye from the pillow.

No. Not another one. Not Yuki. She'd stumbled over to the bed to scoop up the charm and the ring, and fell to her knees as the memory hit her.

Surprise, a half-spoken apology cut off by red hair and a worried smile. A smile so close to her photo. This was her, the girl chosen to be a Player, the girl who had the ability to end Iwahijiri's reign of torment. She didn't look special, not really, didn't look like she'd trained, or like she was anyone but a smiling, bright teenager, but wasn't that enough? Hope.

"Whoops! Are you okay?"

She ran.

Yuki had run. Sora had wordlessly clipped the memory to her bracelet, tears filling her eyes and making her vision swim, and then Suzaku had spoken from the doorway. She tried a smile, but it came out wrong, wobbly, and when she spoke it was with a hitch in her voice. "I'm sorry... Yuki's gone too."
