Code Geass: Back to The Past for a New Future

Chapter 1: Setting of the Story (Prologue)

To begin our tale, the world that is known as Earth and what is all is happening. On this planet there are three powers that are at war. The two of three that are fighting are the Chinese Federation and the United Republic of Europia which are also known as either Europia United or E.U. The third is Holy Britannian Empire which is not only the biggest of the three but also controls just about third of the world. Why are these factions are fighting no one can say for sure for the reason.

Our story starts in Area 11 or as it what known as Japan. Once known as the land of the rising sun of the longest time in history of the world. A land that as fill with history, legends, and myths. That was all taken away from them the day that Britannian had launch an all-out attack on not only on Japan but also the other nations of the world. Whenever a nation had loss the fight against Britannian, they were strip of their history, culture, and their nationality identity. They were relabeled as numbers and made into lower-class slave-like workers for the Britannian royal's upper class.

Even when a nation had fallen to Britannian, there were those that fought back in resistance against the Britannian to try to rid of the control they had. The resistance group were labeled as terrorist by the Britannians and at some point, were put down. The Britannians that were either in the army, police, or citizens treated them lower than dirt. They would make false promises, work them to death, make unhuman entertainment for their enjoyment. Some people could be become what was known as Honorary Britannian but even still they were treated as trash by Britannian and were called traitors by their people.

Just as it seems all hope was lost. He made his appearance to the world.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

It was seven years after Japan lost to Britannian, two days after the terrorist attack that happen in Shinjuku it came out the Viceroy of Area 11, the 3rd Prince Clovis La Britannia, was killed. The blame was put on an Honorary Britannian Private Officer Suzaku Kururugi as a fell guy by a group known as the Purebloods to put a stop to the Honorary Britannian system. As Suzaku was bring paraded through the street to his execution by the Purebloods. That is when it happened.

A car used by royal family members was heading towards them in front of the so call parade and everything stopped. The flag of Britannian that was on the top front car was suddenly burning of fire from the bottom to top in a sudden fashion. With flag gone a man was reveal, but this man had an unusual appearance.

He wore a black cape with a gold type trim on the edges that was from the ground up. It was also wrapped in a manner of that of vampire that is upside down when sleeping. His face was covered by a mask that was like no other. It was black all round it with a dark blue circle right where the face would be. There were five points on the side and top of the mask that gave it appearance of a crownlike style. And to finish it off was a strange symbol that was place under the blue circle that spread like it was from one ear to the other. Beneath his cape he wore a male Victorian outfit that was design as someone of royalty would wear along with black gloves.

After a moment of taking of this man, the leader of Pureblood and acting Viceroy a man named Jeremiah Gottwald asked this man that appear before him who he was. The masked man replies with the words "I am Zero". Jeremiah demand what did Zero person wanted and Zero replied that he wanted Suzaku. Jeremiah laughed and said, "Why should I give you the murderer of Prince Clovis." And then Zero then replied with "He is not the one who murderer Prince Clovis. I was the one who did."

The moment that this was said, shock ran through not only the people that were there to watch the so call parade, but the people that were also watching this on the tv at either in the homes, bars, or other places that a television were at. Suddenly Zero was surrounded by the Knightmares that were piloted by the Purebloods with their gun arm to fire at him. Jeremiah demands that Zero should remove his mask. Zero moves his right hand to the front of his mask. Just as he was about to touch his mask, he suddenly moves his right arm high in the air and with hand he make a snapping sound with his fingers.

Then the frame cover on top of the car that Zero is on behind him broke apart as it was design for a certain purpose. What was shown with the covers gone was a circler canister that was big enough to possibly hold a person inside. Jeremiah and along with the other Purebloods could not believe their eyes at what they saw. During the fight in Shinjuku, it was believed that terrorist had stolen a canister of poison gas. Jeremiah was angry that Zero had just taken all the Britannians citizens hostage and they did not know it yet. Jeremiah quickly aimed his side arm that he kept on his person at Zero.

"You intend to shoot me. I think you know the consequences should you miss," Zero said as saw the gun pointed right at his face. Jeremiah held back a curse as he realized that what Zero said was true. "What is your demand then," Jeremiah asked in an anger tone in his voice. "How about a trade. This canister for Suzaku Kururugi. Think about it Jeremiah, for the life of one Eleven, you'll save the lives of countless precious Britannians. I don't think it's such a bad idea for you," Zero replied back. Jeremiah was just about to snapped at how this Zero person in front of him was acting. Jeremiah reset his focus with his gun and the Purebloods in thier Knightmares di the same with the guns.

Then Zero said the following words in tone that sounded threateningly, "Are you sure about this? You want the public to know about Orange?" Zero tapped his foot twice on the car roof to signal the driver to move forward slowly heading towards Jeremiah. "If I die, it will all go public. If you don't want that to happen," Zero continued to talk. Jeremiah was confused with what Zero just said. Just before Jeremiah could say something back, Zero said, "Release Suzaku Kururugi to me, and do everything to aid our escape!"

Suddenly the personality of Jeremiah changed for no reason. He agreed and had a solider escorted Suzaku towards both Zero and driver who appear to be a girl that was wearing a mask that covered her eyes and nose with mouth left uncover along with a hat. Just as the exchanged was made, the Purebloods in their rage towards Zero for killing Prince Clovis started to move in to kill them. "It seems like it is time to go Zero," the girl that was by Zero said to him and Zero replies, "You are right." In a quick movement with his left hand showed a detonator to all and he pushed the button on it. The canister back on the started to release a cloud of dark red smoke from within it to the air around it.

The moment that the Britannians citizens saw the red smoke, panic had gone off in their minds as everyone ran away in terror trying to save their own lives not caring if they were tripping other people around them. In the mist of the smoke the Purebloods made they moves towards the Zero and the other two. Jeremiah suddenly was stopping those around him as he aided the escape of the trio. They jump off the side road and into a tarp that was set up to slow their fall and ripped right into an open roof of a vehicle below that. The cover on the vehicle closed quickly and took off in a rush before anyone knew what happened.

It was later revealed that the dark red smoke that came from the canister did not contain any poison, but it was harmless red smoke that make to be a smokescreen. But this event is what allow to show that this man who calls himself Zero to only save the life of Suzaku Kururugi, but showed that he was not afraid to fight back against the Holy Britannian Empire. It was also from this point on the Zero would be known as the black demon by the Britannians. There were those who saw this around the world from Britannian, China, E.U., the areas under Britannian rule, and even the Japanese that were now refer to as simple as Elevens. All of them asked this one question in either in their minds or even out loud.

"Who is Zero?"

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

The true identity of Zero is a 17-year-old boy by the name Lelouch Lamperouge or as he was once known in another time Lelouch Vi Britannia the 11th prince of the Holy Britannian Empire. He was the son for Emperor Charles Zi Britannia the 98th Emperor of Britannian. His mother was one of many wives the Charles had during his reign as emperor was name Marianne Vi Britannia also known as Marianne the Flash for her skill with a Knightmare frame known as Ganymede. Lelouch has a younger sister by the name Nunnally Vi Britannia. Lelouch also has half-bothers and half-sisters from the other wives that Charles had in his life.

The life that Lelouch had in Britannian was peaceful as he spent time with his mother, sister and a few of his half-siblings. He was also refered as the black prince in his youth. All was nice and calm until the night of that faithful event. Lelouch was not present for what happen, but the aftermath was not good. For you see his mother was shot in cold blood dead and his sister was both blind and was unable to walk any more. The attack referred as the Assassination of Marianne Vi Britannia hit some people hard that were close to her.

There was an investigation into who was behind this attack, but it was stopped by none of then the Emperor Charles. When Lelouch heard this, he marched into the throne room where not only Emperor Charles was at but also other nobles of certain household and Lelouch half-siblings were present. Lelouch questioned his father on his cold apathy to his wife's assassination and Nunnally's disablement. The Emperor replied coldly to Lelouch that was no need for the weak for that is royalty. Lelouch shocked by what the emperor said to him as he just basely said that he did not care for both his dead wife and Nunnally. Lelouch quickly look around the room towards his half-sibling for help. Only to his even more shock to find none.

It was at this point Lelouch looked at the emperor with anger and told him that if this was royalty is then he wanted no part of it and he gives up his claim to the throne. This came to a shock to his half-siblings for what Lelouch had said to the emperor of Britannian. Emperor Charles showed no emotion to this, and he then banished both Lelouch and Nunnally from Britannian to Japan to live for now on.

When the two got to Japan, they were taken in the residence of the Prime Minister of Japan at the time was Genbu Kururugi, the father of Suzaku Kururugi. It was a rough start at first for both Lelouch and Suzaku, but they soon became the best of friends. Lelouch was enjoying his new life in Japan with his sister Nunnally and his friend Suzaku. It almost seemed like this peaceful life would last forever, but it did not. A few months had pasted when out of nowhere the Holy Britannian Empire launched an attack on Japan. Lelouch, Nunnally, and Suzaku were lucky to not be in the house at the Kururugi residence for a bomb dropped by the Britannan had been released right on top of the house and exploded into nothingness.

As the days passed, the war grew worst and worst. It was no long safe for both Lelouch and Nunnally. The both of them started to head to Tokyo to where the Ashford Family were located at. The Ashford family were friends with Marianne. Because of this they were high in nobility, but when Marianne was killed, they lost that nobility and became a minor noble family rank. As Lelouch look out the war-torn land before his eyes at the destruction left in the wake of the attack from Britannian. It was at this moment that Lelouch would make his biggest decision in his life at this point. He swore that would destroy the Holy Britannian Empire no matter the cost. He knew it would take time and planning to accomplish this.

Lelouch also knew that both bis life and Nunnally's were in danger if either the Japanese found out then they would be killed for revenge or Britannians found them then they would be forced to return and possibly be use political pawns. Lelouch made sure to cover any trails of their turn identity. They dropped the last name Vi Britannia and adopted the last name Lamperouge.

When Britannian had conquered Japan and rename it Area 11, it had changed in way that was bad for the former Japanese and a so call good way for the Britannians people. The Ashford family had decided to open a school called the Ashford Academy in the Tokyo Settlement. This is where both Lelouch and Nunnally had been hiding for 7 long years since the attack. Lelouch had spent time when not at school to take care of Nunnally. It was not long since both the Lamperouge siblings came to Ashford Academy that the head of the Ashford family and the principle of the academy Ruben Ashford had decided to help Lelouch with his sister and hire a maid to help and her name is Sayoko Shinozaki. Miss Sayoko was great at her work as a maid and Lelouch was glad for the help.

As the years went by, Lelouch ended up making friends in life in school. First was Milly Ashford who was the granddaughter of Ruben Ashford. She is a nice person, but once she has a plan in her head there was nothing to stop he. She was the president of the student council, and she had this crazy mad power overload thing she had went palnning crazy events. Lelouch was sure that if Milly was let loose in Britannian with this type of power she would probably have the emperor shaking in fear of her. At times Lelouch almost consider doing it if he had the chance. This was Lelouch first friend and Milly know the truth about both Lelouch and Nunnally and made a promise to never mention the truth and to do what she could to keep them safe.

The next person is Shirley Fenette. At First Shirley did not like Lelouch at first, but that changed one day. Lelouch discreetly humiliate a road rage driver that was abusing an elderly couple while taking no credit for. Since that day she had been curious about the person known as Lelouch Lamperouge. She eventually falls madly in love with him and Lelouch has no is often teased by Milly for her crush on Lelouch. She is not only on the student council with Milly and Lelouch, but she is also a member of the Ashford swimming club. The third person that is on the student council is Rivalz Cardemonde. Rivalz has an unrequited love for Milly and often tries to impress her. He sometimes works as a part-time bartender/waiter. He pretty much gets along with just about everyone at the academy and enjoys hanging out with Lelouch.

The last person Nina Einstein and she is a very quiet person in the academy. Both Nina and Lelouch are able to get plenty of work done for the student council despite the crazy that comes in the form of Milly Ashford. Nina is often found with her laptop in front of her when not in class. Nina also has a fear of being around Elevens for some reason. So, with Milly, Rivalz, Shirley, Nina, and Lelouch make up the Ashford Academy Student Council with Nunnally being an honorary member of the council. These days that Lelouch has spent at the academy were some of the peaceful times, but Lelouch does not let time peacefulness get to him because if he let the peace into life, it will just be taken away from him again. Even during the peace, he has never forgotten his plan to bring down the Britannian Empire and also find out who killed his mother. Lelouch also plans that once the Empire falls, he will try to make the world into a gentler place for his sister to grow up in.

While Lelouch days were spent at the academy, he often skips his classes, mostly PE class, and goes gambling with nobles by beating them in chess which he has played since childhood. Lelouch always wins every match he played through the years. With the winning that Lelouch has earn, he mostly uses the money to make sure that Nunnally is taken care of and rarely uses the money on himself for selfless reasons. This is how he usually spent his days until that faithful day in Shinjuku.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

It all began when a small group of Japan resistance group had just stolen a canister that is to be poison gas. Once word got out that terrorist had poison gas the Britannian military had gotten involve with the chase and the recovery of the poison gas. During the chase, somehow Lelouch was stuck in the truck with canister unnoticed to everyone. When Lelouch go his bearing straight, he tried to hide the best he could as a red-haired girl came through a door that was connected to cab of the truck he was in. He noticed that the girl had climbed into a Kightmare frame that was also in the truck that he somehow missed seeing it. Once the girl entered the frames, she started the frame and opened the back door of the truck.

Once the doors opened, the Knightmare frame that was hidden in darkness was reveal. The frame was colored in both red and dark red on different parts of it and the frame was known as Glasgow type. The girls suddenly launch herself in the frame at the enemies in front of her. From what little that Lelouch could see from his spot, he could tell that girl had some skills as a pilot. Lelouch did not realized how much time had passed until the truck ended up in an abandoned subway tunnel in Shinjuku. When the truck stopped moving, Lelouch climbed out the door and was then stop by a solider of the Britannian military.

The solider ended asking if Lelouch was with the terrorist and Lelouch responds with it is all a misunderstand. The solider took off his helmet to show his face to Lelouch and he is shocked to see that it is Suzaku who he has not seen in 7 years. Suzaku explains to Lelouch that he is now an Honorary Britannian now. Meanwhile in the truck, the driver in on the verge of dying decided to push a switch in the truck that will active the canister with his final breath. The two seen the canister active and were being prepare for the poison gas only to find no poison gas. The canister opened open to reveal a girl with long lime green hair and yellow eyes that reminds a person of a cat. She was wearing a white prisoner outfit that was made to keep a person from moving around too much, unable to use their hands, and unable to talk with their mouth as well.

As soon the girl was revealed to be in the canister, a group of men show up just then and the men happened to be part of Prince Clovis Royal Guards. The head guard gave a command to Suzaku to shoot Lelouch for find out what was in the canister was no be a secret. But Suzaku refuse to do so and the head guard ended up shooting Suzaku instead. Lelouch ends up believing that Suzaku is dead until in the coming days that Lelouch learns Suzaku was still alive and was told by Suzaku when that met again that a pocket watch that he had on his person stopped the bullet and he got knockout. As the head guard shot Suzaku, there was a sudden quake that cause some debris to fall on the guards which allow Lelouch and the green-hair girl the escape they needed.

As they follow the tunnel that was in front of them, they found themselves in what looked to be a warehouse. It was here that Lelouch saw another group of Royal Guards there as they are killing the Elevens with no remorse in their actions. Lelouch and the girls tried to hide the best they can until the Lelouch's cell phone went off and giving away their position. Just as the guard was about to shoot Lelouch, the girl jumps in front of Lelouch taking a headshot for him. Lelouch catches the girl's body in his arm as he fears that he is next to be kill. The only things that were running through Lelouch's mind was his sister Nunnally face as she smiles at him and his revenge at the Empire for all this mess.

The next thing Lelouch know is he hears a voice in his head asking him if he wants power and then if so, he needs to make a contract with her. At this point Lelouch did not care and said yes to it. Suddenly the world around Lelouch change as the voice spoke more about how she will grant him the power of the king known as Geass. What seen like minutes for Lelouch was really a few seconds that had passed. Once Lelouch was calm he activated his Geass for the first time and command the guards to shoot themselves. The guards all pointed the guns at either themselves or at each other and then they pulled the triggers on their gun with no signs of turning to stop it. Once the guards are dead, Lelouch laugh like villain once he realizes that with this power of Geass that he has he will be able to bring the fight to Britannian and destroy them with it.

It was at this point that a Knightmare frame known as a Sutherland entered the warehouse. The pilot of the Sutherland saw the dead bodies of the Royal guard and Lelouch as the only living person in the building. When the pilots talked threw the speaker of the Sutherland, it was revealed that the pilot was woman who went by the name Viletta Nu. Lelouch tried to use his Geass on her, but he discovered that he was unable to do so with her inside the frame and he had to be in range of her in person. Lelouch told her a lie that got her out of the frame and proceeded to use Geass again with this time being successful. Lelouch was able to get both the frame and Viletta's gun. Before Lelouch left the warehouse, he quickly put the green-hair girl body away from other dead bodies on the ground and he hope she finds in the afterlife.

As the fighting continues to rage on in Shinjuku, the red Glasgow was now fighting a few Sutherlands and was slowly being push back. The pilot hears a voice over her radio and giving her directions. Having no other choice, she decides to follow them. She leads the Sutherlands in a tunnel and not even 5 minutes when they enter the tunnel there was a train heading right at them. The voice told the female pilot to jump on top of the train and she ended up doing it with a successful landed safely. The Sutherlands that were follow were not so lucky except for one who jumped on to the train. While he was in midair from the jump, his frame was suddenly shot at from a hole in the tunnel from another Sutherland from what the pilot could see before the cockpit was ejected from the frame before it was destroyed.

The female pilot took a moment to catch her breath just as she felt the train was stopping. She ended up seeing some of her comrades show up right where she was with the train. They ended up informing her that was a voice that came through their radio to meet here. Then the voice came on the radio again and told them to open the train compartment to reveal a bunch of Sutherlands frame and weapons. This resistance group now had a chance to fight back against their enemies. The voice gave them a few minutes to get themselves ready for the fight that was to come. Back the Sutherland that shot the other Sutherland in the tunnel, the pilot of the Sutherland just so happened to be the voice on the radio and this person was no other than Lelouch.

Once preparations were made with the group, the fight was soon upon them. With the Sutherland that Lelouch had, he coordinated with his now call allies to fight the enemies. While this happened, with Price Clovis, who was in the Britannian mobile land base known as a G1, was getting frustrated with how many troops that he was losing so quickly. He then decides to launch a new a new Knightmare frame that was made a project from his half-brother, the 2nd prince Schneizel El Britannia. Back with Lelouch, he was feeling high in pride for he believes that victory was so close in hand. That was things took a turn in a direction he did not see coming. Out of nowhere a new Knightmare frame showed up on the battlefield. It was gold and white in color and the style of it made it look like some sort of knight and later would discovers the name of the frame is Lancelot. This new frame was quicky taking out each of Lelouch's allies one by one.

Lelouch had no choice at this point and order a retreat to all the remanding people to leave as quicky and safely as possible. From here Lelouch was able to sneak into the G1 base disguise as a solider with helmet to cover his face and get Clovis to call for a ceasefire in the battle in Shinjuku. Once the ceasefire was called, Lelouch took off the helmet and revealed his face to Clovis. Clovis was shocked to see with his only eyes to see that his half-brother Lelouch was still alive and not dead from the reports the Royal Britannia family had received from about 7 years old after the war. Clovis tries to sweet talk Lelouch into coming back home, but Lelouch was not having that and pointed the handgun that he acquired from Viletta.

As Lelouch held the gun to Clovis, it was time for Lelouch to get some answers that he is wanting for 7 long years. Lelouch activated his Geass on Clovis and asked him who killed his mother. Clovis answers back with that he did not know anything, but there are two people that would possibly know the answer. Lelouch then asked who they are and Clovis then replies back with the name Princess Cornelia Li Britannia and Prince Schneizel El Britannia. With these two names Lelouch was shocked and knew what his plans at the moment involved now. With answers now in hand, it was time to finish thing here and get back to Nunnally for the night. Lelouch had stopped his Geass on Clovis and Clovis was then back to how he was before the Geass had happened. Lelouch thanked Clovis for the information which left Clovis confuse and the then Lelouch shot Clovis that killed him in an instant.

With things all taken care of, Lelouch once again snuck away from G1 base and headed off in the direction of the Tokyo Settlement. He manages to get back to Ashford Academy late at night when he got back. Enter the building of the Student Council that Ruben was kind enough to let Lelouch and Nunnally to stay at while in the academy. Lelouch stopped by the room that Nunnally was sleeping in, and he walked over to her. Lelouch took a few to few moments to look at how peaceful Nunnally was sleeping at that moment. This reconfirmed Lelouch's determination with his plan against Britannian Empire. As Lelouch left Nunnally's room and headed back to his room for the night, Lelouch knew that from here on out his hand would be cover in the blood of those who will kill in the way of his plan. But Lelouch could never prepare for troubles that would come to not only him, but also those that are close and around him in this war against Britannian.

After the events of Shinjuku, he ended up meeting the red-hair girl that piloted the red Glasgow. He finds out from Rivalz that the girl's name is Kallen Stadfeld and she come from the Nobel house of Stadfeld. Kallen is often sick and rarely shows at academy. Later when Lelouch and Kallen are alone, Lelouch used his Geass on Kallen to get answers and learns that Kallen is half-Britannia and half-Japanese. He also learns that she hated the Britannian Empire with a passion for what they did to the Japanese. When the answers that he got, Lelouch stops his Geass on Kallen and before he walks away, he uses Geass one more time on Kallen to give a command. Only to discover that the Geass did not work like it did before. Lucky Lelouch was able to get away in time. Later Lelouch began to test his Geass to know what it can do. Kallen was suspicious of Lelouch and thought that he was the voice on the radio. Kallen was soon welcomed as member of the Student Council.

After a mishap that involved a bottle champagne, Kallen was in the shower and Lelouch came in with spare clothes for her. Kallen was about to get her answers when the phone rang. On the phone was the voice of the guy that was on the radio during Shinjuku. After getting instructions from him, Lelouch and Kallen joined the others as the news came out that Prince Clovis was murder. Kallen and her friend meet up with the guy that was on the radio and was told to call him Zero. Zero said that he would rescue Suzaku from death. When the rescue was complete, both Zero and Suzaku talked. Zero tried to get Suzaku on his side by showing him the corruption that was Britannian. But Suzaku refuse and said he would do things his own way from inside Britannian and he left.

Later Lelouch would meet with green-hair girl that be believed to be dead and learned her name id C.C. Soon Cornelia arrived in Area 11 and began to hunt for Zero. Cornelia's sister, Princess Euphemia Li Britannia, had Suzaku enroll at Ashford Academy as a student and both Lelouch and Suzaku met once again. Suzaku academy life was bad at first because of the Britannian bulling him. After an incident that involved a cat and Zero's mask, Suzaku was welcomed as another member of the student council and his academy life improve a bit better after that.

Cornelia had decided to set a trap for Zero in Saitama. In the end, Zero was almost caught, if not for the unexpected from C.C. that saved him. Lelouch realized that he could not do this alone, and he would need an army of his own to fight Britannian. It would not be until the events at the Lake Kawaguchi Hotel, where members had taken Britannian citizens were taken hostages by the Japanese Liberation Front or known as JLF, that Zero would appear to not only save the hostage including Princess Euphemia among them, but to reveal his group that would be known as the Black Knights. The Black Knight started small by hitting drug operations around a few places around Area 11. At one of the drugs bust, Kallen discovered her mother among a few others that were under the drug known as Refrain. As Kallen fought against a Police base Knightmare frame in the warehouse, Kallen found out that her mother only stayed in Stadfeld household as a maid and treated horribly by Kallen's stepmother was for Kallen's sake. This knowledge in her mind fueled the fire in Kallen to fight to the best of her skill against Britannian to free Japen and try to mend the pieces with her and her mother.

The first battle battle for the Black Knights against Britannian would be at Narita. Cornelia had found out that Nagita was the headquarters for the JLF. As the battle between Cornelia's forces against the JLF began, it did not take long until the Black Knights entered the battle by causing a landside with the Black Knights newest made Knightmare frame known as the Guren MK-II and the pilot was none other then Kallen. The battle seemed like it was the Black Knights victory with help from Tohdoh and the four holy swords as they piloted the Burai Kai and attacked any Sutherlands in they almost had Corneila right where he wanted her but stopped by the untimely arrival of the Lancelot. It did not go as planned for Zero, and soon, the battle ended with the Black Knights leaving the battle, but felt a bit of pride in their attack against Cornelia and her force. It was not until a few days passed that both Lelouch and Kallen learned that the landslide that they caused killed Shirley's father. The Black Knights would once again fight Cornelia and her forces at the docks. During the battle, Zero was ejected from his Knightmare by the Lancelot and was knocked. Both Shirley and Viletta see Zero without his mask. Shirley took Zero's gun and shot Viletta, who was later found by Ohgi with amnesia.

A few days later, in Nagita, Lelouch was looking for Shirley and eneded meeting a man by the Mao. Mao also had the power of Geass that allowed him to read people's minds. Mao had a crazy amount for love for C.C. that was considered creepy. Lelouch finally found Shirley, and he used his Geass on her to erase her memories of him in her life.

Lelouch was able to set a trap for Mao that involves Geass control police that shot down Mao. Lelouch thought this was over until somehow Mao survived and kidnapped Nunnally. With Lelouch distracting Mao, Suzaku was able to save Nunnally. Lelouch used his Geass on Mao to keep him from talking, but he was killed by C.C.

After some time passed, the members of the four holy swords came to the Black Knights to rescue Tohdoh from prison. Zero rescued Tohdoh, and with both Tohdoh and the four holy swords in new Knightmare frames called Gekka, they were able to fight off the Lancelot with some information provided by Zero. When the cover on the cockpit of the Lancelot was cut off, all who were either there or watching on tv were shocked to see Suzaku was the pilot. Later, when the Black Knights retreated, Princess Euphemia declared Suzaku would be her knight.

Zero launches an operation to capture both Suzaku and the Lancelot on Shikine Island. It was almost a success, but it was stopped by Prince Schneizel with a floating battleship called the Avalon to bombing everything on the island. Zero used his Geass on Suzaku to live in order to survive the attack. Somehow, Zero, Kallen, Euphemia, Suzaku, and Cornelia had ended up on Kamine Island during the Avalon bombing.

Zero found Euphemia on one part of the island, and on another part of the island, Kallen and Suzaku found each other, which Suzaku discovered Kallen as a member of the Black Knights. With Zero and Euphemia, Euphemia called Zero by his name Lelouch, and he was shocked she found out his identity. Later, with Zero, Euphemia, Suzaku, and Kallen ended up at some ruins on the island. Both Zero and Kallen stolen a new Knightmare frame protype called Gawain from Britannian to escape the island.

During the event at Ashford Academy, Princess Euphemia announced the area around Mt. Fuji into what would be called the Specially Administrated Zone of Japan or the SAZOJ. This zone would allow the Elevens to be referred to as Japanese again. She also asked Zero, his hand in helpping with this zone. During the commemoration ceremony, Zero appeared, and both him and Euphemia went to have a private meeting with just the two of them. At first, Lelouch was going to have Euphemia shoot him with his Geass, but he changed his mind and decided to help her. Lelouch began to explain his Geass to Euphemia but did not realize how much stronger his Geass had become. His Geass had activated and ended up making Euphemia order a massacre to all the Japanese that were there.

Lelouch tried to stop it but was too late. Lelouch as Zero was forced to use the situation for his goal to rally the people to his cause to fight against Britannian. Lelouch was able to isolate Euphemia in private and with heavy heart and reget he kill Euphemia, the one other person in his family that he did not want to killed.

It was not long since then, when Zero launched his attack on the Tokyo Settlement that would be known as the Black Rebellion. During the battle, many things had happened. Viletta recovered her memories and shot Ohgi. Nina created a nuclear bomb to avenge Euphemia but failed to explode. Kallen reveals herself to her friends from Ashford Academy as a member of the Black Knights. Lelouch used Geass on a captured Cornelia and learned she had nothing to do with his mother's death, and Schneizel may have a hand in it.

C.C. learned that a person by the name V.V. had taken Nunnally from Ashford Academy to Kamine Island and informs Lelouch about abandons the Black Knights to save Nunnally. The Black Knights were easily defeated once Zero was gone . Once Zero arrives at the ruins on Kamine, he is confronted by Suzaku. Kallen also arrives as well and watches on. Suzaku shoots Zero, which hits the mask and splits apart, revealing Lelouch's face to both Kallen and Suzaku. Kallen is shocked to learn who Zero really is, but Suzaku does not care since he blames Lelouch for killing Euphemia and the peace for Japan.

Lelouch asked Suzaku to help him save Nunnally, but it was rebuffed instead. Suzaku then reveals that he knows about the Geass that Lelouch has by V.V. and what Lelouch could do with it. As both Lelouch and Suzaku are about to shoot each other, Kallen runs away with both tears and confusen with the truth tha reveal to her. Suzaku was able to knock out Lelouch. Later, Suzaku brought Lelouch in front of Emperor Charles on his knees. The Emperor then reveals that he also has Geass, which is shown in both eyes and not the left like Lelouch has. Suzaku asked the Emperor to be made into the knight of round for being him Zero, which the Emperor agrees. Suzaku covers Lelou's left eye as the Emperor comes closer as Lelouch tries to break the hold that Suzaku has him in.

It had been one year in Area 11 since what is now known as the Failed Black Rebellion. Members of the Black Knights are either in hiding, killed, or in prison until their execution. Among the Black Knights to be said that was killed was Ashford Academy, Lelouch was running away from a P.E. teacher who was Viletta. Once Lelouch escaped from Viletta, both Lelouch and his brother Rolo headed to gamble at Babel Tower. When they got there, Lelouch was slammed into by a familiar red-haired girl who started to clean the mess she made. Out of nowhere, she was grabbed by man, who was a bodyguard to a noble. Lelouch challenged the noble in a game of chess to win the red-hair girl. The man agreed, and the two began the game.

As the game was being palayed, a blimp that was in the air was heading towards Babel Tower. The game was concluded with it being Lelouch's win, which shocked those watching. The noble went back on his word and was going to kill Lelouch. Before anything was done, all of a sudden, there was an attack on Babel Tower. The red-hair girl was about to grab Lelouch, but it was too late because Rolo grabbed him first and headed to an emergency exit. The girl was mad and was about to be grabbed by the bodyguard from before.

Before the guy had a chance, the girl quickly took him down with close quarter combat. The girl was really Kallen from the start. She started to head to a certain location. Both Lelouch and Rolo reached a safe spot to catch their breath. Lelouch noticed a guy above head with a gun aimed at Rolo. Lelouch rushed to Rolo to save him, which Lelouch was able to do, but he ended up falling down a hole in the floor that was right by them. The ones that were attacking Babal Tower were none other than some of the surviving members of the Black Knights led by C.C. and Urabe, one of the four holy swords. They had only one mission on their mind.

Lelouch landed on a tarp that stopped his fall. Lelouch found himself in a room with a bunch of dead bodies, and then a Burai showed itself to Lelouch. The cover of the cockpit opens up to reveal its pilot is C.C. Before anything is said, C.C. is shot from behind by a group of soldiers that looked to be Britannian. Two soldiers came on the sides and started to burn the dead bodies to cover the evidence of them being killed there. Lelouch watched on aa the head of the group told Lelouch that they are part of a task force to capture C.C. and they were going to nowgoing to kill Lelouch.

Lelouch was feeling both helpless and powerless in the situation he found himself in. Just then, a voice asked if he wanted power, and Lelouch replied yes. The dead girl body moved and then used her power to reawakened not only his Geass but also his memories. Armed with his Geass, he ordered the soldiers to kill themselves. Once the soldiers were dead, Lelouch remembered what the Emperor did, and that was manipulation of his memories. Lelouch realized he had a sister and not a orders the Black Knights to counterattack the Britannian that showed up at the tower. As Lelouch was conducting the plan for them to , he was confronted by Kallen and demanded to know if Lelouch used Geass on her to fight for him. Lelouch told her he did not, and the two had reconciled the trouble between them. Before the Black Knights made their escape, they were attacked by a new Knightmare frame that was never seen before it was shown to be like a golden knight. This Knightmare was somehow to disappear from one spot and appeared in another like it was teleporting.

Urabe ended up giving up his fight to give Lelouch, Kallen, C.C., and the remaining Black Knights the chance to escape. Lelouch used bombs to collapse Babel Towel and used the destroyed building that fell as a road straight to the Chinese Federation consulate. From the consulate, Zero broadcast a message to aired that he has returned to take up the fight against Britannian once again. During the broadcast cast, the golden Knightmare from Babel Tower showed up, and the pilot exited the cockpit to reveal it was Rolo.

Rolo received a call from Viletta to find out where he was since Lelouch had returned to Ashford Academy. This confused Rolo on who was the Zero that was broadcasting right at this moment. After the broadcast at the consulate, the Zero, who did the broadcast, entered a room with Kallen. With them, the only two in the room, Zero, then took off the mask to show that it was C.C. with a recorder that Lelouch gave her, and Kallen was shocked that she was not informed about this.

With Lelouch back at the academy, this caused the Special Division led by Viletta, which made them doubt that Lelouch had returned as Zero. Lelouch secretly did an investigation into Nunnally's whereabouts and learned that no one at the academy did not know her. Lelouch came to the conclusion that the Emperor had used his Geass to do this. Later outside the consulate, Guilford gave an ultimatum to Zero on live tv to show himself or let the Black Knights that have been caught to be killed.

Lelouch had a plan to confuse the Special Division so he could was stopped by Rolo, and Lelouch tried to use Geass on him, but Rolo used his Geass to prevent Lelouch controlling him. Lelouch figures out Rolo's Geass allows him to stop time around in a certain range of his person. Lelouch convinces Rolo to spare him for the capture of C.C. Rolo agreed but told Lelouch that if he lied, he would kill him.

With the deadline approaching, Zero made his appearance. As the fight between Zero and Guilford was about to begin, the ground suddenly collapsed, causing everyone to fall into an area of the consulate. Rolo was piloting the golden Knightmare known as the Vincent ready on act on to either kill Lelouch or catch C.C. But Lelouch had a plan made that cause Rolo to abandon Britannian and join Lelouch.

Later, at Ashford Academy, Suzaku returned to see if Lelouch had regained his memories. When a plan party for the returned of Suzaku was just about over, with a bunch of problems that involved C.C. and Arther the cat. Lelouch was with Suzaku, and the two were talking. Suzaku calls the new viceroy that was coming to Area 11. Once Suzaku handed the phone to Lelouch, he was shocked to hear Nunnally's voice. Lelouch realized that this was a trap by Suzaku to see if he had his memories or not.

With the quick help of Rolo's Geass, Lelouch was able to fool Suzaku. Lelouch was able to blackmail Viletta into helping by not revealing her love with Ohgi. Later on, the Black Knights attacked the air convoy that was transported Nunnally to Area 11. Zero's plan to get Nunnally away from Britannian was folded by Suzaku and two others from the Knight of Round. Once Nunnally was in Area 11, she stated that she would try to continue Euphemia's plan for the SAZOJ again. Many of the people were against it because of the events a year ago.

Lelouch was in depression because he falled to keep Nunnally safe from being used by Britannian. Lelouch was at a construction yard for the work to rebuild the Babal Tower. Lelouch had cut him off from any communication from the Black Knights. Kallen goes in disguise to look for Lelouch. Lelouch knew he could go up against Nunnally. Lelouch was able to find a drug vile that contained Refrain. Just before Lelouch injected the Refrain into his body, Kallen shows up and destroys the vile. She then slaps Lelouch hard in the face for him to snap himself out of this depression he was in.

Later that night, the Black Knights were all in the submarine base known as the Ikaruga to come up with a plan. Then, they were attacked by the Britannian navy division under water. When all hope seemed lost, Zero contacted the Ikaruga with the order which they followed that turned the battle in favor of the Black Knights. Zero then accepts Nunnally's offer to join the SAZOJ. In a private meeting, Zero requests to be exiled from Area 11 for being one million people to the SAZOJ, and it was agreed upon.

At the opening ceremony, Zero pulled off a plan that released a smokescreen that blanket the area for a few minutes. Once the smokescreen cleared, all the people were shocked that the one million people who showed up were now dressed as Zero. Because it was agreed that Zero would go into exiled, Suzaku had no choice in letting the millions go to avoid a massacre from happening.

The Black Knights were now in the area of the Chinese Federation. The Ikaruga was getting an overhaul change on its appearance. Zero learns that Chinese princess, Tianzi, was to be wed to the 1st Prince Odysseus Eu Britannia. This wedding was planned by High Eunuchs and Prince Schneizel. Before the wedding begins, a man by the name Li Xingke launches a coup d'etat against the High Eunuchs. In the chaos, Zero appears and takes Tianzi hostage.

Zero with the Black Knights had escaped with Tianzi. The High Eunuchs told Li Xingke that if he got Tianzi back, he would be forgiven for the coup d'etat. Li Xingke agrees, and he was given the Knightmare frame called Shen Hu. When the Shen Hu appears in front of the Black Knights, Kallen fights him with Guren MK-II but runs out of power during the battle and is captured by the Chinese Federation forces.

When Zero heard that Kallen was captured, he was mad on the inside for a reason that he did not realize because of the fight that the Black Knights were in. Soon, the High Eunuchs showed their true colors and betrayed Li Xingke and his forces. Zero tries to reason with the High Eunuchs, who openly admit their treason to both the Chinese princess Tianzi and the Chinese citizens to be allies for Britannian. What the High Eunuchs did not know Zero was broadcasting this discussion live, and all the citizens of China were enraged and caused rebellion.

It was at this moment that Zero appeared on the battlefield from the Ikaruga, which was now a flying battleship base of the Black Knights. Zero was now ready to fight the High Eunuchs forces with a new Knightmare frame known as the Shinkiro. Zero was able to use the power of Shinkio to destroy most of the High Eunuchs force. Li Xingke was able to kill the High Eunuchs and then forge an alliance with Zero. Zero learns that Kallen and the Guren MK-II were handed off to Suzaku with the Britannian forces that were with Prince Schneizel. Zero was once again enraged when he learned this but kept a clam persona to everyone around him.

While Lelouch was Zero in China, there was another Lelouch that was seen at Ashford Academy. But the true of this second Lelouch was that this was really the maid Sayoko Shinozaki, who was secretly a ninja as well. Her job was to keep up the appearance of Lelouch at the academy. It would not be long before the real Lelouch came back to check in with how things were going in Area 11. Once the real Lelouch returned to Ashford, he was greeted with the surprised that two Knights of Round members, Gino Weinberg and Anya Alstreim, were joining the academy and the student council.

Once back at Ashford Academy, Lelouch was so busy that he was not sure if there was an end in sight with all the work he had to do. One part of his work was to establish alliance with other nations to fight Britannian. The second part was trying to plan a way to find and rescue Kallen because he refused to leave her in the hands of Britannian. The next was his work on the student council, which he was used to. The last of his work was all the dates that filled his schedule because of Sayoko. All this had Lelouch busy on days end.

Milly had decided to host one last event before her graduation and called it Cupid Day. Just as it seemed like it was not going to be too much trouble, Milly had placed a bounty on Lelouch, which was the fear on his face as he realized he was a target for everyone at Ashford. Both Rolo and Sayoko helped Lelouch to the best of his abilities, and Lelouch had to use his Geass to help him out when needed. It was Shirley that caught Lelouch at the end, and two became a couple that brought a smile to Milly's face.

As Shirley walked around in public with a happy smile, she was caught in a blue field that came and vanished just as quickly that no one noticed. All of sudden, Shirley remembers everything from the truth of Lelouch being Zero, Nunnally, and knows the false memories from the past year. The cause of the field came from one man who happened to be Jeremiah Gottwald, who was to be believed to be death on two different times. The first was when he was ejected from his Sutherland from being attacked by Guren MK-II in Nagita. The second was during the Black Rebellion when. C.C. tried to kill them both by pulling him and taking the both of them to the bottom of the ocean to be killed by the imploding pressure depth.

Jeremiah was testing the new weapon in his cybernetic body he now has. The weapon in question was none other than a Geass Canceller. With this, Jeremiah would bring this fight to Zero. Lelouch was getting things set at the train station to fight Britannian to take back not only Japan but also Nunnally. Jeremiah finds and corners Lelouch, but Lelouch set a trap for Jeremiah. Before Lelouch kills Jeremiah for good, he learns that Jeremiah was once one of guards for his mother when Lelouch was older and was deeply saddened that he could not save her children during the attack on Japan believing to be dead.

Lelouch reveals his true identity to Jeremiah, which cause him to swear loyalty to Lelouch. While Lelouch was busy with Jeremiah, Shirley ran into Rolo and revealed that she knew Lelouch was Zero and Nunnally. Rolo then kills Shirley to keep her quiet and prevent her from trying to help Lelouch before she can tell that part to Rolo. Lelouch finds a dying Shirley and tries to save her. Shirley tells Lelouch everything she knows with her dying breath. She tells Lelouch that she loves him just as death comes for her life. Lelouch picks up Shirley's dead body and crises his heart out for another person taken away from his life. Rolo tells Lelouch that he killed Shirley later that day.

It was then that Lelouch planned to kill Rolo without his knowledge for the revenge of the death of Shirley. At Shirley funeral, it was said it was suicide. Lelouch did not show up, which cause Suzaku to be suspicious. Lelouch with Rolo, Jeremiah, C.C., and a few Black Knights went to attack a base of the Geass Order led by V.V., thanks to the information from Jeremiah. During the attack, Lelouch planned to activate a bomb planted on Rolo's Vincent. But that was stopped by Cornelia, who went missing after the Failed Black Rebellion.

Lelouch ended up finding V.V. who was dying by what look to be a giant stone door that he had seen in the ruins on Kamine Island. Lelouch took notice that V.V. was not healing like he saw C.C. done before. Before Lelouch could do anything, a red light came from the door and Lelouch found himself in C's world with the Emperor in front of him. Lelouch launch a glass made device from his Shinkio that scattered that allow to cast his Geass with reflection at the Emperor. The Emperor ended up killing himself by shotting himself, but Lelouch never gave that order. Then the gun wound heals and the Emperor was find.

It was them the Lelouch realized the Emperor had the same immorality that both C.C. and V.V. had used before. Before anything could be done or said by either of them, C.C. came out of nowhere to save Lelouch from the Emperor, but it came at the cost of C.C. losing her memories of who she is and Lelouch. It was not long after the attack on the Geass Order, with Cornelia as a prisoner in cell on board the Ikaruga, that the Black Knights were ready to fight Britannian once again.

The Black Knights had rally 47 countries to form the United Federation of Nations or as the UFN. Then they declared war on Britannian to liberate Japan. A big force of Britannian military force and the Knight of Round went sent to Area 11 for the Battle to come. Before the fight, Nina, who was not seen since the Failed Black Rebellion, was working with Prince Schneizel to create the weapon known as the Field Limitary Effective Implosion Armament or the FLEIJA. Nina had the Lancelot equip the FLEIJA in hope of killing Zero to avenge Euphemia death.

Lelouch and Suzaku meet up and Lelouch admits he is Zero. Suzaku asked Lelouch some questions which Lelouch answers truthfully and begs Suzaku if he gives him Nunnally he would stop the war that was going to hit Area 11. But before Suzaku could give an answer, a force of Britannian forces from Prince Schneizel surround Lelouch led by Kannon Maldini. Lelouch was captured and was betrayed that Suzaku had set a trap for him. But Lelouch had plan to get out of this situation he was in by the form of a Geass control Guilford that would take place by using a certain motion.

With escape from Schneizel forces, Lelouch headed to battlefield with a control Guilford. As the battle rage in both in the air and land, Lelouch had sent Sayoko into infiltrate where Kallen was being held and Rolo to get Nunnally. But Rolo had plans to kill Nunnally without Lelouch knowing. Sayoko was able to free Kallen and the two headed to where the Guren was located, only to find it different then Kallen remembers. It was now known as the Guren S.E.I.T.A.N. Eight Elements. Kallen took the new Guren to the skies to join Zero in battle. Then Sayoko went to search for Nunnally.

As the fight continues, with Kallen killing the Knight of Round Luciano Bradley, who is known as the Britannian Vampire. On the verge of death, the Geass commands the Lelouch used on Suzaku kicks in and causes him to use the FLEIJA in hope of taking out Zero. But he misses and it completely obliterates a massive section of the Tokyo Settlement before everyone's eyes. Rolo radio's in Lelouch and informs that Nunnally was killed in blast range from Suzaku using the FLEIJA.

Once Lelouch heard this, Lelouch break down at losing the last member of his family that he cared about. Later Prince Schneizel called for a ceasefire and asked for a meeting between him and the Black Knights. Lelouch was to devastate to attend the meeting. It was here that Prince Schneizel ended up revealing Zero true identity as Prince Lelouch Vi Britannia and the power of Geass. Prince Schneizel had used a recording that Kannon had when Lelouch was captured earlier as evidence. Both Cornelia who was freed from her cell and Viletta also confirmed this fact as well.

Prince Schneizel had the Black Knights believing that Lelouch had used his Geass on them for him to use them as he pleased. It was here that Prince Schneizel offered a dead to Athe Black Knights. If they agree to betray Lelouch and kill him, then he would give the Black Knights Japan to them. All the members agreed with no questions. Kallen visit Lelouch in his room to see how he was doing, as she was unaware of the meeting that was taking place.

Ohgi had called Kallen to bring Zero to one of hangers for a quick discussion. As Kallen and Zero head to the meeting location, Kallen was trying to cheer Lelouch up. Just as they got there, Lelouch was about to tell Kallen something but was interrupted by the sounds of guns being loaded with bullets. Kallen and Zero looked around and saw that all the members of the Black Knights had their guns on the two of them. They also saw Prince Schneizel, Princess Cornelia, Kannon, and Viletta were among them.

Ohgi mention that the Black Knights knows the true of who Zero really is and the power of Geass he has. He also goes on how he uses it on the Black Knights. Zero takes off his mask to show his face as Lelouch and drops the mask which breaks on the ground. Kallen tries to defend Lelouch, but some the Black Knights soon says that she under his Geass. Lelouch sees that Kallen is going to be shot alongside him. It was then he decided to use one more lie he could think of that would save Kallen from being.

Lelouch ended up laughing like a mad man and told everyone present that they were all fools and were nothing more than pawns for him to use for his plans. The enraged the Black Knights and this cause Kallen to be shocked by Lelouch words. As moved away from Lelouch as starts to hate Lelouch for using her. But before she was out of range of Lelouch to be shot, she heard him say in a quiet whisper that no one heard but her. He said the following words in a soft whisper, "You have to live, Kallen."

Kallen was about to asked Lelouch what he meant by his word, but it was too late. Just as the Black Knights were about to shoot Lelouch, he suddenly disappeared. It was then the Shinkiro was active and launched from the Ikaruga. It was Rolo that was the pilot of Shinkio with Lelouch in the cockpit with him in Shinkiro. Rolo had used his Geass to save Lelouch. Rolo passed on some information the Emperor was on Kamine Island. The Black Knights launched the Knightmare to kill Lelouch on the Shinkiro. Rolo kept using his Geass to escape the Black Knights. He was successful, but it came at the cost of his life by heart failure by overtaxes from his Geass.

Lelouch took the opportunity that Rolo had given him and decided to finished things off with the Emperor and get the answers from him. Lelouch was going to get both his answers and revenge one way or another. This was promise that he was making to himself as he piloted the Shinkiro towards Kamine Island.

Code Geass: Back to The Past for a New Future

Chapter 2: This is an Intervention

It has been a week since the Black Knights had betrayed Zero, who was really Lelouch. The Black Knights had kept the deal they had with Prince Schneizel from Kaguya Sumeragi, the chairwoman of the UFN, Tianzi, and Li Xingke. The Black Knights with the help from Diethard Ried they released the news that Zero had died from injuries from the battle at the Tokyo Settlement.

During the week that pass, the Black Knights were doing all that they could to find Lelouch to either kill him or capture to hand him over to Prince Schneizel. Kallen was the most disappointed at not being able to find Lelouch. She wanted to find him so she could get an answer to what Lelouch last word he said to her before escaping the Black Knights. She was so confused on everything that was happening and all of it all surrounded Lelouch.

Kallen just entered her room aboard the Ikaruga. She noticed she had a text message on her phone. The text message said the following Please meet me in Shinjuku at the following address by sunset. She seen the address of that was included and she realized that Lelouch must have sent the text. She headed off the hanger to launch in the Guren as she headed towards Shinjuku. What Kallen did not know that she was spotted by Chiba Nagisa, the last living member of the four holy swords, and when to inform Tohdoh and the others about was she saw.

Kallen was able to reach the meeting destination. She seen that meeting point was a warehouse that was run down with holes all over the building. Kallen exited the Guren and started to head towards the warehouse. As she entered the building, she saw that there was only one person in the warehouse and that person was sitting on a box as a makeshift chair. There was also a small table in front of the person and on table was a chess board with white pieces out numbering the black.

Kallen then realized that the person sitting was Lelouch. She took a moment to take in his appearance in front of her. Lelouch was no longer wearing the outfit that he wore under the cape as Zero. He was wearing what looked like regular street clothes with some black in the mix. The one thing that Kallen had noticed that was out of place was the blindfold that covered his eyes. Before Kallen could say anything to him, Lelouch beat her to it by speaking first. This shock Kallen that Lelouch knew she was here with his eyes blindfolded.

"You know I sometimes wonder when the idea of Zero came to be. Was it when I was born. Was it when Nunnally was born. Was it when my mother was killed and the Emperor banished us to Japan. Was it when Britannian invaded Japan. When I received the power Geass. Or maybe when I killed Prince Clovis," Lelouch asked with with his voice sounding like broken man. "After I escaped from the Black Knights, I went after the Emperor to finish things with him once and for all. And learned things that shocked me to know," Lelouch continued to talk. And began to tell Kallen his story.

FLASHBACK

A WEEK AGO, ON KAMINE ISLAND

Lelouch managed to pilot the Shinkiro to Kamine Island in secret despite the security from the Britannian forces on patrol. Lelouch managed to sneak his way to the ruins. Once there he saw the Suzaku was there on the ground with another member of the Knight of Round, Bismark Waldstein the knight of one. Lelouch realized that Suzaku was most likely unconscious from Bismark, if Lelouch had to guess. Lelouch also noticed that the Emperor was also there with other two.

"It seemed like this was Schneizel's plan to try to seize the Britannian's power of the Emperor for his own," said Bismark as he turns to the Emperor with his left eye sewn shut. "Yes, it is, but it matters not. Once I use the Sword of Akasha in C's World, then nothing else with matter then," the Emperor told Bismark as he heads towards the stone door. Just before the Emperor touched the door, he turns and gave an order to Bismark. "Please make sure everything is ready for when Lelouch comes. I do believe that he will come here. Please try not to kill him if necessary. If you do then the plan will not change anything that happened anyway," the Emperor said and Bismark replied, "Yes sir."

Bismark left to his Knightmare frame and left to join the Britannian forces. The Emperor touched the stone door and disappeared in a flash of red light. Once the coast was clear, Lelouch headed towards the doors and followed the Emperor threw the door. If Lelouch was to stay a bit longer, he would be shocked to see who showed up then.

The Knightmare frame known as the Mordreds that is piloted by the Knight of Round Anya Alstreim. Once the Mordreds powered down, Anya stepped out of the cockpit. Anya looked back at the cockpit to see C.C. coming as well. C.C. was able to recover her memories short after the Black Knights betrayal. Suzaku was coming around and he saw the two when his vision refocused. Suzaku took notice the red circle glowing in Anya's eyes.

Anya said no words to Suzaku as both Anya and C.C. headed to the door. The moment Anya touch led the door, she glowed red and then fainted. C.C. turned to Suzaku and said, "If you want to know what is going on then you should follow to get your answers." C.C. went to the door and disappeared in a red flash. Suzaku who was still trying to get his head wrap with what is going on soon follow.

IN C'S WORLD

As Lelouch appears in C's World, he took notices of a set of stairs that lead up by the planet that looked just like Jupiter. Lelouch started to walk up the stair to where he believes the Emperor was at. As he walked up the stairs, Lelouch went ahead and took the lens contact out his left eye. He knew it would be pointless to use it against the Emperor. It did not take long for Lelouch to reach where the Emperor was at. He saw the Emperor standing on a ledge between a pair of pillars, which he was facing towards a cloudy expanse before him. "So, you manage to get here without going through Bismark it seems," said the Emperor not looking back as he knew Lelouch was there without turning around. Lelouch was arm with a simple handgun, but he knew it would be pointless to use against the Emperor.

"I knew that I no chance to be able to fight a skilled fighter then the Knight of Round that holds the Knight of One title. But I am not here to talk about that. I am here for answers that I know that you know. You are going to tell who murder my mother and why let them go. You claim that you love my mother and yet you never brought the guilty to justice. Then had the nerve to end both me and Nunnally to Japan just to invade not caring if we lived of die. You will answer my question you sic bastard," Lelouch said with tone in his voice started from uncaring to rising anger quickly.

"I called off the investigation because I already knew who did it. Believe me I did love her, and I still love her along with both you and your sister," the Emperor replied with a bit of what sound like caring in his voice. "You lair, if you knew why you did not do anything when you could have ordered justice. You claim you love both me and Nunnally, but you called her weak and cast us aside to die," Lelouch almost screaming in rage at the Emperor while in Lelouch's head he was getting angry and confused which made it hard to keep his emotions in check.

"I could not afford to have him killed at the time. You see the killer was V.V., who was your uncle. I needed him for the plan that him, me, Bismark, and your mother had made for world peace. No matter how much I wanted to kill V.V., but I knew that Marianne wanted me to complete the first and foremost. The reason I have both you Nunnally sent to Japan was to help the both of you safe and away from any plans that V.V. may have come up with for the two of you. V.V. hated at how close that both me and Marianne were. He believed that I loved Marianne, you, and Nunnally more than him, which is true, and decided to kill Marianne because of that," the Emperor replied to Lelouch as he turned around to look his son in the eyes as he gave him the answers that he seeks for the past 8 years.

"Why did you not tell me the truth," Lelouch asked just as he felt like pulling his hair at for as confusion, he was feeling at the answers he was now learning. " You were too young at the time. I knew you had a high IQ, but you had little emotional intelligence. If I was told you at the time, you would have to tried to take matters in your own hands and would probably be dead. Sending the two of you away like I did was the only way that I could be the two of you safe. It hurt for me to do that, but I would do it a million times if it would ensure that the two of you were save from him," the Emperor replied again with the sound of general concern in voice.

"That is a bunch of bullshit, you had order Bismark to kill me, if necessary," Lelouch replied back weakly as the answers the Emperor was giving him were slowly starting to make sense to him. But with all the time that Lelouch started the fight with Britannian, he was trying to not believe the words he heard. Then Lelouch remembers some words that C.C said to him back at Narita, "If you have someone that you don't want to lose, you should keep them at a distance." It was then that Lelouch was shocked by what C.C. was telling him at the time. "The only reason I told him that was because our plan is just about to be completed. You see with this Sword of Akasha we can destroy god and subsequently the barrier between both life and death. The mask shall be removed, our loved ones that we lost shall returned to us. Your mother, Euphie, your sister, and that girl Shirley will all returned to us. You know that both Euphemia and Nunnally would want this for the world peace that they wanted," the Emperor explaining his plan to Lelouch for him to see the reason behind what he was doing.

"No, they would not. Not like this they would not. To destroy the barrier of life and death would cause everything to be destroy. The meaning of life would cease to exist, there would be no point in it. The world would be a living hell, an endless purgatory of monotony and similarity that would drive people to madness," Lelouch replied back at the Emperor for realizing at how crazy his plan was. Lelouch then heard a gasp behind him and saw three people behind him. The two he recognizes were C.C. and Suzaku, but it was the third person that shocked him the most. It was none of that Marianne Vi Britannia, Lelouch and Nunnally own mother, that appear from the mist from behind C.C. and Suzaku. "Lelouch, it will be alright sweetie. It will all turn out fine," Marianne said to Lelouch in a clam and loving motherly voice that Lelouch knew that this was really his dead mother.

"Mother, is that really you," Lelouch asked weakly as he could not believe she was right in front of him. "Yes, my little prince it is me. I have missed you so much," Marianne answered with the same tone from before. "How is this possibly," Lelouch asked in confusion. " I had received a Geass from C.C. long ago. My Geass allows me to move my soul into another person that is close by. I was in the body of Anya the whole time, while Charles had Schneizel move my real body to a safe place and had fixed the damages to it to allow me to return to it whenever necessary," Marianne replied as she moved from behind C.C. and Suzaku to be by Charles side. "When V.V. tried to kill your mother, and Nunnally was unable to walk because of it. I had used the Geass I was giving by V.V. to make sure Nunnally could not remember what happen and make sure see would never see anything like that again," Charles told Lelouch the one thing he should know.

"When we were creating the Sword of Akasha, we discovered that one code from a code bearer would do the job, but with two codes it would make sure the plan could not fail and that why needed C.C. to be here with her all her memories," Marianne explaining why C.C. was here to Lelouch. "Do you support this plan of his, mother," Lelouch asked with his hair covering his eyes. "Yes, I do," Marianne answered back. "Nunnally would never want this," Lelouch said to his parents. "I believe Euphie would not want this either," Suzaku also said as was now on Lelouch's side as he stared at both Charles and Marianne. "You know that Nunnally was never happy," Charles said to Lelouch. "She smiled because she had appreciated what she had," Lelouch replied. "Her smiles were fake and wanted to make you feel better," Charles replied back at Lelouch.

Lelouch looked straight at Charles and yelled in rage, "I WILL ALLOW YOU TO CALL IT A LIE TO MY FACE!" "It doesn't matter anyway. The Ragnarok connection is nearing completion and soon the Sword of Akasha will slay god, and we will have world peace," Charles said knowing that there was no way to stop the plan now. "I reject you. I reject this plan. I reject this world of yours. I won't have it," Lelouch said with anger in his voice. "You are a fool. You have no idea what Schneizel plans are," Charles said. "Lelouch, do you reject me as well," Marianne asked. "If you support this plan, then my answer is yes I reject you as well," Lelouch answered. "You may say that, but there is no way for you to stop the Ragnarok connection from happening. This is the beginning of a new era for all," Charles said. Suzaku was just about to try anything to stop this but was stop by what happened next. He heard a small chuckle from Lelouch and turn to him.

"I may not be able to stop you, but there is one person here that will be able to," Lelouch replies with his Geass now appearing in both of his eyes. "You are a fool, all that are here are immune to Geass," Charles told Lelouch. It then then that Charles realized who Lelouch was talking about. Lelouch had a smirk and gave the command, "I make this request to you god of this world to not stop the march of time and stop the plan of these two from happening. Keeping moving towards tomorrow." With command given by Lelouch, the Sword of Akasha started to shake very violently and then exploded with a force that turned into dust. Unknown to all that was present when this happened, the energy that was contain inside the Sword of Akasha was what caused the explosion to release a surge that only effect a few people there at that moment.

Both Charles and Marianne looked at disbelieve that Sword of Akasha was destroyed along with their plans. Before they could do or say anything, they heard Lelouch asked," Do you had any idea of the meaning of Nunnally's smile was?" "The meaning," Marianne asked. "Even though Nunnally was blind and crippled. She never let that weigh her down. She knew that there were things that she could not do on her own. So, she smiled in her way of showing gratitude," Lelouch answered with a small tear from his eyes from the memory of Nunnally's smile. Charles was blinded by rage at what Lelouch had done. He rushed at Lelouch with the intent to kill his son. Suzaku moved to intercept him. Before the two would fight, suddenly both Charles and Marianne bend over in a flash of pain. They then noticed that they were slowly turning into dust. Charles was shocked that the code he got from V.V. was not stopping this. It seemed like the request that Lelouch gave to stop Charles and Marianne was doing this to them. Lelouch turned around to not face his parents and the fate that is befell them.

"I hope you are happy now. You will have to deal with what will be coming to you with Schneizel has coming," Charles said to Lelouch with anger. "I will see then won't I," Lelouch replies with small tears escaping his eyes as he heads towards the stairs. Suzaku soon follows Lelouch out of C's World. Both Charles and Marianne notice that C.C. was not turning into dust like this. "I thought you wanted to die this whole time C.C.," Marianne asked. "I did at first, but Lelouch managed to change my mind to wanting to live for some reason," C.C. answered. It was then the process of Charles and Marianne turning into dust started to speed up "Please watch over him if you can for us will you," Marianne asked as she knew both her and Charles time was coming to an end. "I will do," C.C. answers back as she went the same way as both Lelouch and Suzaku gone.

With the three gone, both Charles and Marianne came close together as best they could with bodies turning to dust. They hugged each other as they looked out to the view on the ledge that Charles was looking at earlier from before Lelouch arrived. The two shared a smile together as they closed their eyes. It was not long before gone as their finished turning into dust and blown away the wind that came from nowhere.

Back on Kamine Island

Once Lelouch, Suzaku, and C.C. exited the door, the three have not said a word since they left Charles and Marianne to their fate. Suzaku knew that with Lelouch was taking it hard with killing both of his parents with how he did it. Suzaku was the same way when he killed his father when Britannian attack Japan 8 years ago. Before Suzaku or C.C. could say anything to Lelouch, the two heard two shots from a gun go off and then they fell in into darkness. The shooter was none of than Lelouch. He did not kill the two. Lelouch had replaced the bullets in the gun with tranquilizer rounds that knock a person out for a few hours at most. Lelouch quickly found some rope nearby and tied the two up. Lelouch left a knife by them to free themselves when they woke up. Lelouch wanted to be far away from them. He just wanted some time to himself to think about with all he learned and what to do next. he heads back to where the Shinkiro was at and headed towards Area 11 while avoiding the Bratinnians in the area.

FLASHBACK ENDS

"Once I got back, I start to think about everything. I realized that everything that I did was pointless. Sure, I got my revenge, but look at the cost for it. Killed Euphie because I was too prideful. Shirley was killed by Rolo because of me. The Black Knight betrayed me because of either lies I made or just for having Geass. I lost Nunnally. In the end I have nothing in the end. I'm just so bitter on the inside," Lelouch said as he finished his story to Kallen. Kallen was shocked by what Lelouch had told her with what he gone through on Kamine Island a week ago. Kallen decided to ask Lelouch the few questions that has been on her mind. "Please answer me this Lelouch. What did you mean you say that I have to live? Just what do I mean to you," Kallen asked with a bit of desperation in her voice at wanting to know.

"I guess I owe you that. I seemed like while I was trying to not be anything like me father, I was like him the whole time when I did not realize it myself. I was pushing away all those that were closed to close to me just like my father did to me and Nunnally. I try to keep Nunnally safe, and she was kidnapped and used against me and then was killed. Euphie try to help in a peaceful way, and I killed her. I hurt Shirley in ways as Zero and got her killed because of it. Then there was you. You were there at the beginning. I hurt you in ways that I am truly sorry for. Back in China, when you were capture. I felt rage that you were taken away from my side. Then I heard that Suzaku had taken you with the Britannian forces, I began to feel fear at what would happen if the Emperor had used his Geass on you to make you fight me. And last was when I saw that Black Knights were going to shoot you along with me. I just could not stand losing another person who was close to me again. I say that lie about the Black Knights being pawns in order for up to hate me at the moment. I was ready to die at that moment, but I refuse to take you with me like that. You deserve to stay living without me to drag you to death. Since that day in Shinjuku, when I gave you the codename Q-1. I did not see it at the time, but you became more than a simple pawn. You were the queen. My queen that was with me. The queen that I loved with my heart," Lelouch answered as he started to cry toward the end of his answered to Kallen question.

Kallen was honestly shocked by the answered that Lelouch. Her heart skipped a beat the moment that Lelouch said he love her. It was right then and there that Kallen felt the same way. She was in love with Lelouch. Not Zero that Lelouch had become. Not the Lelouch that was the Britannian Prince. It was the true Lelouch she got to know with their time together. Kallen walked closed to Lelouch and sat next to him. She took a quick look at the chess board from earlier and saw the position of the pieces was the white surrounding just one black piece that was the king. "Why did you contract me now," Kallen trying to keep calm and not think and the chess board. "I am just tired of it all Kallen. I don't have the strength to keep going anymore. I just want it to be over already," Lelouch answered with his voice sounded like he was broken, tired, depress, and giving up hope on living anymore. "I am not going to kill you Lelouch. So, don't bother asking me to do it," Kallen replies as she thinks she figure out was he messaged her in the first place. "I was not going to ask you to kill me Q-1," Lelouch said which surprise Kallen. Kallen felt that her heart jumped a bit when he called her Q-1. It made her very happy.

"I needed to let you know that Schneizel has some sort of plan. There were only two people that could stop him. The first is the Emperor and the second is me," Lelouch told Kallen which shocked her. "We need to get you somewhere safe so we can make a plan to stop him," Kallen said with concern in her voice for Lelouch safely. She needed to tell Lelouch how she feels about him. "There in nothing I could do now. Not after what happened to me in C's World," Lelouch said still with his voice sounding like a broken man even more than before. "What do you mean," Kallen asked with worry in her voice. Lelouch reached up and started to remove the blindfold he had on. Once off, Lelouch turned to face Kallen with his eyes close. The moment he opened his eyes, she was shocked by what she saw.

Kallen was used to seeing the deep purple of eyes that held life in it, but now his eyes were no longer the same as before. The purple that shown life were now purple that show dead in them. But the biggest shocked was when looking at his eyes it was shattered. It looked like when a person drops an around piece of glass or mirror into pieces. Kallen looked carefully at his eyes and saw the shattered pieces were becoming shattered themselves even further. "It seems like when the Sword of Akasha exploded it damage the Geass in my eyes. I've slowly been going blind as time passes. Right now, all I see is blur images. I can't even use my Geass anymore because of what is happening to my eyes now," Lelouch tells Kallen. Kallen could not believe what Lelouch in going through with his eyes at the moment. Lelouch then put the blindfold back on to once again to cover his broken eyes once again.

"Not that is matters. It won't be much longer before the Black Knight show up to kill me. I figure if I am going to die it should be here where I acquire my Geass," Lelouch said as he sounds like he resigns to the believeth that he was going to die with no problem. "What do you mean," Kallen with worrying starting to bubble inside her. "It is more than likely that your cell was being monitored or someone was following you on the Ikaruga and saw you launch while tracking the Guren here," Lelouch explained calmly to Kallen. Kallen was in a state of panic by what Lelouch told her. It was then Kallen realized what the chess representing. Kallen was not going to let Lelouch die like this on his terms. She refuses to let it happen.

Kallen quickly stood up and grabbed Lelouch's wrist. She quickly made Lelouch stood up as well, which was no hard to do with the lack of muscles that Lelouch did not have from skipping P.E. to go gambling while at Ashford. Kallen rushed to the Guren with Lelouch in tow, so the two would get out of Shinjuku before anything could happened to them. By the time they were time they were about halfway through the warehouse, and Lelouch was trying to stop Kallen and get her to let go of his wrist with little to no success in doing either, both of then heard the sounds of gun getting ready to fire. This caused them to stop and Kallen looked around and saw some Black Knights that were rushing in and was surround the two cutting off anyway to escape. Even with Lelouch losing his vision, he knew what the situation was happening that they were in. Kallen cursed under her breath as she tried to think of a way out.

Before either Kallen or Lelouch did anything, it was then that they were joined by Tohdoh, Chiba, Ohgi, Viletta, and Tamaki who were considered the high-ranking members of the Black Knights. "Well done, Kallen. You managed to catch the dangerous traitor that we have been after," Ohgi commented as he looked at the two. Each one was looking at Lelouch the most with different reason of hate. For Tohdoh it was had Lelouch cared little for the death of the innocent has caused. For Chiba it was when Lelouch abandon them during the Black Rebellion to either die or be capture. With Tamaki it was now knowing that his so-called best friend Zero was really a Britannian Prince the whole time. Viletta reason was what Lelouch had her following his orders with blackmail. And with Ohgi it was because of how Lelouch used his Geass on them.

"Once we hand you over to Prince Schneizel, then he will uphold his part of the deal to give the control of Japan to the Black Knights," Ohgi said as he signals for two soldiers to approach the two to handcuff Lelouch. When Lelouch heard this, he could not help but laugh a small bit. "So that was the deal that the snake gave you all," Lelouch said as he was able to piece things in his mind. "You told us of lies of freeing Japan with no trust in them. But as least we have word of a noble to make it happened," Chiba said as she was looking for a reason to shoot him dead right at that moment. "You have no idea what Schneizel is really like. He said that he will return Japan to you, but he won't and will treat the Black Knights was his personal attack dogs," Lelouch said and then Ohgi then replies back with, "Why should we believe anything that you say now? For all we know is you trying to either trick us or try to escape again." "Kallen, I believe it would be best for you to step away from him right now," Tohdoh said that almost came as a command like. "I will not leave his side," Kallen replied back as she intended to stay by Lelouch no matter what.

"Kallen, I really don't want to kill you as a traitor," Ohgi said trying to reason with Kallen to avoid being killed. Ohgi is under the believeth that Kallen in under the control of Lelouch's Geass. Kallen made no movement to leave Lelouch's side. Ohgi was left with no choice but to signals another two soldiers to handcuff Kallen as well. Ohgi hated to do this to his dead best friend, Naoto Kozuki, own sister. He was left with no other choice. Ohgi figure they could find a way to break the control that Lelouch had over Kallen. Just as the first two soldiers came close to Kallen and Lelouch, Lelouch was about to use a trick to release the Kallen's hold on his wrist. Lelouch was going to save Kallen at the cost of his life. Lelouch plan was to push Kallen away which he hopes to cause the Black Knights to fire upon him in thinking that he was escaping.

Just as Lelouch was about to pull his plan off, he and along with all that was present were stop still by a new voice that no one had ever said. "I am afraid that cannot allow all of yall to either capture or kill them now," the voice said. Everyone looked for the person of the voice and saw that he was leaning on the back of the warehouse wall just a few steps away from where Lelouch was sitting when Kallen first show up here. Everyone but Lelouch looked at the appearance on this new person that shown up. He was wearing black/red tennis shoes, blue jean pants that had holes in that a bit above the knees and below the knees. There was what liked to be a chain wallet hanging on the right side of leg by his waist. The shirt he was wearing was simple short sleeve black polo shirt and threw the bit of the opening of the shirt that was unbutton by the neck seen that he was wearing a chain necklace. There was a watch on his left wrist and a pair of wireless headphones that covered one's ears hang around his neck. As for the man's face, his hair was cut short that gave a bit of looking a spiky style, his eyes were bright emerald, green that were behind the simple glasses he wore. The two things that man had on him drew the biggest stares.

The first was what looked to be a Japanese style sword know as a katana strapped to his back with the handle by his right shoulder. The second was a dark crimson metal gauntlet on his fight arm that covers his right hand and half of his arm under the elbow. There was what looked to be glowing gems on what to be slots on the back of the hand of the gauntlet. There appeared to be four gems if a person was looking close enough. The gems were in the colors of blue, green, purple, and yellow. The man body form and posture gave an appearance that his was in great shape for what his age was. Once everyone got a good looked at the man, it was then they realized that he did not look to be either Britannian, Japanese, or any other the ethnic groups they know about, but has the appearance of human thought. "Who are you and why are you here," Viletta demand to known who this newcomer was.

"You may call me by the nickname Kitsune as I don't like to give me real name away. As for what I am here for it is the two people that yall in the middle of trying to capture for the stupid decision yall made with that snake of a prince that goes by the name of Schneizel," the man now named Kitsune answered. His answered put all the Black Knights on guard immediately and few of them pointed their gun at him. The man stopped leaning on the wall and took about ten steps away from the wall. This action cause a few to tense up while keeping their guns on the man. "What is your reason for wanting these two traitors," Tohdoh asked while getting ready give an order if needed. "Well, that would be business that is only for me and two only to know," Kitsune answered calmly like there was no guns ready to shoot him moment noticed.

"So, you are here to rescue the two is what you are saying," Chiba asked with a tone of anger in her voice. "Well, I thought that would be obvious by now," Kitsunse answered. "YOU ARE NOT GETTING THE CHANCE. FIRE YOUR GUNS AT KITSUNE AT ONCE," Ohgi shouted as he refuses to let Lelouch get away again to keep the Black Knights from freeing Japan again. As some of the Black Knights were about to fire their guns, while the remaining kept their guns on both Kallen and Lelouch. Just before the guns fired, the green gem on the gauntlet glowed a bit brighter than before. Then time felt like it was slowly down a bit around Kitsune as he smirked a bit as he reached his for the katana on his back with his right arm. Just as his right hand wrapped around the handle, Kitsune took a deep breath and then release the held breath. For the others time was moving regularly and no one pay any mind on the gem glowing. They saw the man reach for the katana, just as the guns fired the bullets head to the man. "Yamata no Orochi slash," Kitsune said as he drew the katana from the sheath and slash in the direction of the oncoming bullets.

Then to everyone eyes, they saw what to be a ghost like come out of the katana that took the appearance of an eight headed dragon/serpent. The moment the heads came out, the head went straight at the oncoming bullets. The heads were wagging around the area like a dog's tail in the area in front of Kitsune. Just as the eight heads appeared, they vanished just as fast along with green gem that returned to how it was glowing before becoming bright a while ago. Everyone took noticed that Kitsune was still standing with no bullet holes on his person. It was then they noticed that the bullets that were fired, laid on the ground between both then and Kitsune. The Black Knights and along with Kallen were shocked and confused by what Kitsune, with Lelouch being the only one not knowing what was going on not able to see with the blindfold the state of his eyes going blind.

Lelouch could only rely on his ear the best he could do. Lelouch was able to tell as much he could that the man did something to keep the bullets from hitting him. Everyone took noticed that the katana he held was the blade was reverse on how a katana was to be when made. "What the hell are you," Tamaki asked the one question that was on the mind of everyone that seen what he did. Kitsune had a mile on his face like what he just did was nothing short of superhuman like. "I am just a simple person that has private business to discuss. Now if you will excuse the three of us. There is much to talk about," Kitsune answered as he returned the katana to its sheath. Once the katana was in its sheath once again, it was then the blue gem started to glow on the gauntlet which caught all the attention of all.

Then what look to be a dark blue circle form behind him, that shock people even more. Kitsune stepped backward in the circle and disappeared. While most of the Black Knights were watching what Kitsune just did, it was then that Tohdoh quickly saw another dark blue circle appeared right under where both Kallen and Lelouch were standing right at. "QUCKLY, GRAB THE TWO OF THEM BEFORE THEY GET AWAY," Tohdoh shouted as he realized that the two were about to escape the same way Kitsune just left. But the order came too late as both Kallen and Lelouch fell in the circle fast like the ground they were standing on just disappeared from under their feet. Once Kitsune, Kallen, and Lelouch disappeared into the circles, the dark blue circles disappeared just as quickly as they appeared. While everyone was trying to figure out if what they just saw really happened or they were currently high of some type of new drug that may have been in the air, it was Ohgi that came to realize the Lelouch has escaped them once again and taken Kallen with him this time.

After the frustration had set in, the Balck Knight were now leaving the warehouse to return back to the Ikaruga to once begin the search for Lelouch again. As Ohgi and the other exited the building, one of them would have to pilot the Guren back to the Ikaruga. Viletta offers to do it and hoped that Kallen left the activation key in the Guren. When they got to where the Guren was last seen, they quickly noticed that the Guren was also gone and there was to trace of anybody that came and took it. It did not take long for them the come to the conclusion that Kitsune had a hand in this as well, and they would be right if they ever happened to meet Kitsune by chance, but that day would never come,

When both Kallen and Lelouch manage to get their bearing after what seemed to be a short fall to the ground. Kallen took noticed that both her and Lelouch were no longer in the warehouse in Shinjuku anymore and what to be like the inside of an abandon hanger. "I am deeply sorry about at the sudden drop yall just had but it was the only way for me to make sure the two of you had escape safely," the familiar voice of Kitsune that came from behind them. "How did you do that," Kallen asked as she held Lelouch closed to her in fear of him disappearing on her. "That would be because of this," Kitsune answered as he shown the dark crimson gauntlet on his right arm. Kallen looked at the gauntlet more closely and took noticed for the four gems that were on it along with looked to be two more slots for two more gems to be place. "It was thanks to the space stone that I was able to transport us away from Shinjuku," Kitsune finished answering. "Thanks for saving us, but why did you do it," Kallen said as she need to know if Kitsune was friend of foe.

"Just as I said in Shinjuku, I have some business to talk about, but it really Lelouch that I wanted to talk to bout it, but with you here may change what the result after when we finished talking," Kitsune answered in manner of calm seriousness. The two looked toward Kitsune or in Lelouch case turning his face to where Kitsune was at. "What business do you have to talked to me about," Lelouch asked with a bit of curiosity, but was angry that this man stopped from letting the Black Knight to end his life once and for all. Kitsune looked to the two and asked with a smile that held no lies or deceit of any kind, "What would say Lelouch if I said that I can sent you and those of your choosing to return back to past to fix the mistakes that you regret making and make thing right. In other words, how would you like to travel back in time." The moment Kallen and Lelouch heard this, they were left speechless.

Code Geass: Back to The Past for a New Future

Chapter 3: Talks, Discussion, and Gathering

Both Kallen and Lelouch were trying to wrap their head around what Kitsune said to them just moments ago. If the existence of the Geass and what forms, they take with people, then time travel should not be that far fetch. Then Kitsune decide to explain things to the both of them, "The reason I come to you with this is because of what you started at C's World on Kamine Island. When you gave the command to for time to keep moving, in which thing are doing now. But your eyes and Geass were not to be damaged. This was unforeseen accident that happened to you, and it should not happen." Lelouch asked, "How do you know what happened there? I don't remember even seeing you there." "The reason I know is because I am known as a Watcher or in my case a former Watcher as I have made my choice to abandon the duties of the Watchers of changing things that hold very little meaning in doing so. The Watchers seemly watch over different time and places. They pretty much watch the over the whole multi-verse." Both Kallen and Lelouch are both speechless at what their just heard.

Then Kitsune decide to try something. Kitsune pulled a good size metal box out of the pocket of his jeans that shown no sign of the box being there. Kallen's eye pretty much went big eyes at seeing this "How," Kallen could only asked. "The pocket on my jean just so happens to be set up with a magical dimensional space. It makes traveling so much easy when on the move a lot," Kitsune answered as he secretly enjoyed the reactions he gets when he does this around people. With the metal box in hand, Kitsune opened it and there was a red glow coming from it. Kitsune removed the blue, yellow, and purple stones from the gauntlet and place them in the box. Then he took a dark red stone out and placed in the one of the free slots on the gauntlet. "Before I show you what I was talking about with the Watchers before, let me take care of first," Kitsune said as he held his right hand out towards Lelouch.

Kallen was about to jump in front of Lelouch in case Kitsune attacked him but was surprised when she saw the green stone that he left on the gauntlet started to glow brightly. In front of Kitsune's right hand, just about an inch or two away from his fingers strange symbols in green started to appear. Kallen took quick notices of what looked to sentence in the mix, but she was unable to read them for it was like it was written in unknown language never seen before until now. Kallen then took notices that the same green glow that came from the stone was also coming from Lelouch, but more at where his eyes were at behind the blindfold. The glowing from the stone, the symbols, and Lelouch did not last long before the glowing stopped. "There that should help you now. You can take the blindfold off now Lelouch," Kitsune said.

"Why should I take it off? Nothing will change," Lelouch asked as he still sound broken but not as bad as before. "You would be surprised what I able to do with the right gear," Kitsune replied. It was then that Kallen moved in front of Lelouch. She reached up and removed the blindfold from Lelouch head. She was hoping that her guess at what happened was not wrong. As soon as the blindfold was removed, Lelouch had ended opening his eyes. He figures that it was Kallen to remove the blindfold. The moment Lelouch opened his eyes, he was shocked that he was able to see clearly for the first time in a week and the first thing he saw with his recovered vision was that of Kallen, his Q-1, the queen that he fell in love with. Kallen was looking right at Lelouch's eye and saw the damage that she saw before were gone like it never happened. "How is this possible," Lelouch asked as he continued to look at Kallen's face, trying to memorize every detail of her face as he feared he would lose this chance of his clear vision go back to being blind like before.

"That would be the power of the time stone. Being able to either forward or reverse the time of anything that wielder wants," Kitsune answered as he let the two take their time to process the information given and to inspect his handy work. After a moment, both Kallen and Lelouch turned to Kitsune to hear what more he had to say. "As I was saying the Watchers watches over the different events that has happened, will happened, or had not happened yet. The Watchers main goal is to keep a sense of balance and make sure that nothing too dangerous comes to destroy it," Kitsune said as he moves his hand outward to the side as the red stone begin to shine. A red mist started to form around the three and the surrounding were changing before their eyes.

"The Watchers have seen how the change of one decision or one event would change thing for either for the best or for worst," Kitsune continued to explain. Both Kallen and Lelouch watched the different scenes changed as they saw Britannian Empire did not exist, one world was there a huge army were fighting in a huge battle from what the enemies to be what looked to be like aliens, and in other they saw people of that world had strange appearances and different power as they were dress to be what they guess would be heroes.

"There was a bunch of different timelines of you give the Geass order to the god of C's World of what is really know as the collective consciousness of the world. But in this timeline the Sword of Akasha should have disappear and not exploded like it did and sent this timeline spiraling into chaos," Kitsune explain as both Kallen and Lelouch listened on. "It came to Watchers about what was happening, and they made the decision to do nothing about it. It was because they decide that I made the choice to help," Kitsune finished the tale of who he was as he stopped using the red stone. Both Lelouch and Kallen had begun to the process all that they just learn.

"I believe that best solution for this timeline is to send you and anyone that you choose to go back to past and change things for the better," Kitsune told them. Kallen asked, "How far back in the past can you sent us if possible?" "My best guess would be at lease about one or three months before the battle of Shinjuku. I am still trying my best with this this Watcher's control gauntlet, but even the best Watchers had a hard time mastering this gauntlet with the infinity stones. If I try to push it further, then what I can handler there is no telling what could happen," Kitsune answered as he really wanted to help them better, but he could not risk their lives that could killed them.

"Since the two of you have had a few stressful hours with all that happened and with I have told yall. I believe that a good night sleep is needed. I have some beds that are ready for yall to sleep. There located in the black of this hanger," Kitsune told them as he pointed towards the door. Lelouch started to walk to door, so he came give his mind a rest for the night. Before Kallen could followed, Kitsune came by her and said in a quite tone to make sure Lelouch did not hear what was said. "If you do have feeling for him. Let him know your turn feelings. With all that happened since that day when Birannian attack Japan, I am afraid with how effect his mind become with all that he seen at such a young age. No kid should ever see that death and carnage," Kitsune said with concern in his voice. Kallen blush a bit when Kitsune mention her feeling, but then became concern with what Kitsune just said.

"What are you asking me to do," Kallen asked as she looked at Lelouch's back as he walked. "Be there for him. Try to help him with the healing that he needs. He may try to push you away as best he can without hurting you, but you must stand strong, and break downs the wall that he has built around his mind and heart. I believe that you can be a great source of strength for him with you by side. You need to help save Lelouch from the dark abyss that he is falling in that destroying him without him even knowing it himself" Kitsune answered. Kallen took the answered that Kitsune to heart and her determination to help Lelouch by being the light that he so needed right now. Kallen soon followed quickly after Lelouch, just as soon he opened the door.

Kitsune looked at the two as they were about to enter the next room and said with a playful smile, "Just because the two of yall will have the room to yourselves doesn't mean that I want to hear any loud noises tonight." Once both Lelouch and Kallen heard this, they both blushed as red as Kallen's red hair. The two quicky went inside without a word. The two suddenly had flashback to Ashford Academy with the antics of Milly on the Student Council. Once the door closed, Kitsune looked at where the two were and thought with a small quite chuckle, 'Making people to blush that red will never stop being funny no matter what timeline or dimensional plane I go to.' Kitsune proceeded to mess with the gems in both the metal box from before and his gauntlet. Once he finished, he placed the box back in his pocket and took a quick look at the stones that he chooses to put on his gauntlet. The gems that were chosen were blue, green, and yellow.

Kitsune looked away from the gauntlet and look straight ahead of me inside the empty hanger. 'Time for me to get to work and get others who I know that will help Lelouch to make things right and for the better for their future,' Kitsune thought to himself with seriousness in his eyes behind the glassed that he wore. Kitsune had the space stone glowing as the blue portal appeared in front of him. As Kitsune was about to enter the portal, his thought turned to one subject, 'I hope that Kallen is able to get threw that hardhead Lelouch. I know things will be different for not only him, but for everyone in the world.' Kitsune enter the portal to head for his chosen destination. The portal closed behind him and once again leaving an empty and almost abandon hanger.

IN THE ROOM THAT BOTH LELOUCH AND KALLEN HAD ENTER

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Kallen quickly closed the door with her face still red from the comment Kitsune said the two. It took a few minutes for the two of them to get their raging blushes under control while trying to not look at each other. Once they got their emotions under control, they look around the room and saw a few beds with curtains in between them for privacy. There were two makeshift changing rooms by the back wall. They also took noticed that there were also some changes of clothes which included some sleeping attire right by the changing rooms. "Well as least we be able to sleep comfortably tonight by not sleeping with what we have on tonight," Kallen commented with a smile at Lelouch. "We should get change and try to get some sleep tonight after all that happened," Lelouch replied still in broken state but still not as bad when Kallen first spoke to him in the Shinjuku warehouse. The two each picked a pair of sleeping shirt and pants and headed to the to changing rooms.

As they began to change their clothes, Kallen was trying to figure out the best way help heal Lelouch. Kallen could tell that Lelouch was still hurting on the inside with the death of Nunnally and with the truth that he learned about what his mother did. It did not take long for the two had finished changing their clothing and step out of the changing. "Lelouch, before we go to sleep, can we talk for a bit," Kallen asked as she saw Lelouch took a moment to think before he nodded his head. Then the two sat side by side on the same bed. "How are your eyes feeling," Kallen asked with concern which was given how he was going blind and then having his vision restored again. "I will admit to is strange to see clearly again before I was going blind. I thought that the power of Geass would be the strangest thing I would encounter, but Kitsune blew that out of the water with what he did," Lelouch answered trying to figure if this was still real or he really died back in the warehouse in Shinjuku.

"You would not believe what he did when he was shot at," Kallen said and then beginning to tell Lelouch what he did since was not able to earlier. Lelouch was shocked and impressed with Kitsune. Shocked by what little skill that he showed like it was nothing. An impressed by how calm was during that, when he knew other people would be freaking out and losing their cool in a situation like that. "What do you think about with how he said he could send us back in time. It sounds insane, but with what we saw him do as far, I believe it would be possible," Kallan asked as she faced Lelouch. "To be honest the offer sounds too good to be true. I am almost tempted to take the offer, but I can't bring myself do it," Lelouch answered with a bit of fear in his voice that Kallen caught. "Why," Kallen asked with that simple word to try to why he would a bit afraid. "If I was to do it there are two possible paths that sticks to me the most. One is that we are successful, and everything would be better outcome then what it is now. The other is if we go back, and I somehow made thing worst. I just can't do. Not again. I can't stand to lose those close to me again. Especially you if I somehow caused you to be killed in some way. I just can't do it," Lelouch answered and when he was talking about the second path that he thought of he started to freak out in a worst way with tears coming out his eyes.

With seeing at how bad Lelouch was freaking out, was causing pain in Kallen's heart. Kallen soon realized at how truly broken Lelouch was. Kallen now saw with all those that were close to Lelouch was a sort of anchor that kept him he from breaking until now. Kallen quickly grabbed Lelouch in a tight hug in order to calm him down in some way and hoped that this work. "Please calm down Lelouch. Try to breath. Please," Kallen said by Lelouch's ear and continued to say things to get him to calm down. Soon the hug and the words from Kallen were helping Lelouch in what could be considered a panic attack. It took a few minutes, but Lelouch breathing was now calm from what Kallen was feeling from her hug with Lelouch. After a few more minutes, when Kallen was sure that Lelouch was no longer freaking out anymore, she released the hug and look at Lelouch's face.

Kallen seen at how vulnerable Lelouch was. This was totally different from the Lelouch that she knew before. She then realized what Kitsune meant about the walls that Lelouch had built. This was the true Lelouch she was seeing. The Lelouch that was keeping all the years of pain of the hurt and betrayal he went through from when he was younger till now. The Lelouch that felt that he was truly alone with no one by his side. Kallen made the decision to make sure no matter how hard or how long it would take she would help Lelouch to overcome this and just maybe bring out the Lelouch that he was meant to be. Before Kallen through went any further, Lelouch talked now that he was calmer.

"Thanks for that Kallen," Lelouch said as was now feeling calmer. Kallen said with a smile, "It was no problem." Lelouch took a moment to think about things with Kallan and he knew had had a rough choice to make. "Kallen, you should ask Kitsune to retuned you the Black Knights tomorrow," Lelouch said with a serious voice and a heavy heart. Kallen was shocked with what just said and replied, "Why should I?" "Kallen, I just can bear if something happens to you because of me. You should not be by my side. You deserve to live a better life then you would have with me around. You also deserve to find someone that can give you the love you deserve, and they care for you which can bring you true happiness. You should live your life without me around to ruin it," Lelouch answered as he tried to get Kallen to see the reason in leaving him. Kallen realized that Lelouch was trying to push her away and she was getting really mad on the inside. Kallen could not help but release an angry growl as she looked at Lelouch.

Before Lelouch could continue on, he suddenly heard what sounded like an angry animal growling. It made no sense to Lelouch since he did not see any animals in the room when entering and there was only two people. Then a thought occurred to him, and slowly Lelouch turned his head to Kallen. There was then Lelouch had thoughts that he should had let Cornelia kill him in the past. For what he saw truly scared him. He saw what looked to be a red aura of sort that was coming out of Kallen. Lelouch also saw raged that was in her eye and gnashing her now shown teeth in anger. Then in happened so quickly that Lelouch had no clue how Kallen moved that fast. For Lelouch was now laying on his back as Kallen pinned him down with her arms on Lelouch's shoulder and sat on him by mid waist with her knees on his hands as she stared down Lelouch face to face. Lelouch was unable to break the hold that Kallen had him in for she was very stronger than his weak body from lack of muscle.

Just as Lelouch was just about to say something to Kallen, she beat him to it. "Don't you dare try to push me away. I am not going back to the Black Knight or anywhere else. I am going to stay by your side even if I had to use some very hard to cut handcuff to do it," Kallen said with anger in her voice which sent shivers down Lelouch's back in fear. "But I," Lelouch started to say but Kallen interrupted him with more of her angry rant at him. "You are going to stay quiet and listen to what I have to say, or I will force you to be quiet when I shove your sock in your mouth. I am sure that you don't want to taste how bad your feet might had sweated in them. Nod yes if you understand me," Kallen threateningly said to Lelouch as he nodded his head quickly in fear.

"You are going to listen to what I have to say to you. I am not going to go anywhere without you with me. Don't you dare say that you will ruin my life. I will not let you decide what I should do just for you to try to push me away. Well, I decide that my life is going to be by your side whether you like it or not. I am definitely not going to find someone to love. At Shinjuku, you called me your queen. Well, this queen had already chosen who she loves and that happens to be you who I chose to be my king. The king that I love," Kallen said with the anger in her voice. When Kallen said that she loved him, Lelouch felt like his breath got stuck in his throat. Kallen saw she had him speechless at that moment and decide to show him that she means business. Kallen in a quick movement in Lelouch's eye at what Kallen was doing now. She moved her hands from his shoulders and place them on each side of his head as she made her move.

She had captured his lips with hers in a kiss. Kallen had closed her eye and try to pour the love she has for Lelouch in the kiss to show him that she truly cares for him. Lelouch eyes were wide opened as his mind was trying to process what was going on at this moment. Slowly Lelouch was returning the kiss to Kallen which he did not noticed at first until he felt he started to breath in by his nose for air to keep going with the kiss if he did not want to pass out. While they kissed between to the two of them, it would feel like hours had passed which in reality was a few minutes at most that passed for them. Kallen broke the kiss and move her head back a bit but not too far as head seemed like to hover over Lelouch's head.

"Please Lelouch do not push me away more. Let me try to shoulder your burdens with you. Let me be your strength that you need to get you through your problems. I love you Lelouch. Let me help you and let me be by your side forever how long we are alive," Kallen said in a soft and calming voice. Lelouch took in the word that Kallen had just spoken. Lelouch did not realized that Kallen had no longer had him pin down anymore. Deep in Lelouch's heart, he knew that Kallen what she said and the kiss she did were her true feelings and not fake. Then in Lelouch's mind, he felt like he had found the comfort that he did not know that he was looking for in his life since he when he thought that his mother was supposedly dead when he was ten years old.

Lelouch soon moved his arms and wrapped them around Kallen's body in a hug and pulled her close to him. When Kallen felt Lelouch pull her to him, she managed to wrap her arms around him as he laid on the bed. As two laid on the bed while hugging, Lelouch had started to cry and Kallen was whispering smoothing words in his ears. As this went on Lelouch began to confine to Kallen everything he seen in his life and what he had to do to keep Nunnally safe when growing up. Kallen did not say a word and listen to all that he had to say. In Kallen's mind, she soon realized what Kitsune was telling her earlier about what she had to do. At some point, Lelouch had fallen asleep in Kallen's arms. Kallen heard the light breathing from Lelouch as he slept. She thought that Lelouch must have been very tried not to be noticed. Kallen smiled at the sleeping face of Lelouch. She managed to pull the bed covers over their bodies. Just before Kallen close her eyes to sleep, she gave a good night kiss to Lelouch's cheek and said in a quiet and loving tone in her voice, "Good night my king." Soon sleep had claimed her too, as the lights in the room turned off by themselves as if knowing the two were now asleep.

WITH THE BLACK KNIGHTS ABOARD THE IKARUGA WHEN LELOUCH AND KALLEN WERE HVING THEIR HEART TO HEART MOMENT

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Ohgi and the other high-ranking member of the Black Knights were in a video chat with Prince Schneizel along with Princess Cornelia in the background. Ohgi and the other were just finish telling Prince Schneizel what all that happened in the warehouse in Shinjuku. Ohgi also sent a video file to Prince Schneizel that came from on the body cameras that was on some other soldiers of the Black Knights. Both Schneizel and Cornelia were dumbfounded when they finished seeing the videos. "It seems like there more to the Kitsune then he appears to be," Schneizel said once he gathers his thought together. "Do you think it was that power of Geass that you told us about," Ohgi asked if that was the case with Kitsune.

Schneizel shook his head and answered, "No. From what I found of Geass, its power is shown by the eyes and his did not change at any point." "If it's not Geass, what could it be," Viletta asked as this was a main concern at the moment. "I do not know, but I did notice that two of gems on the gauntlet did glow at different times. It may be the answer to how Kitsune did those things, but that is only a guess," Schneizel answered as he try to solve the mystery that is Kitsune. "That blue circle might had been a portal of some kind. That would explain how they disappeared as they did," Cornelia said. "That is some dangerous power that he has and there no telling what else Kitsune can do," Tohdoh said with concern with Kitsune's abilities that he has shown and not shown so far.

"I would be even more dangerous if Lelouch is able to use Kitsune as a pawn for his own goal," Chiba added with tone of anger at Lelouch's name. "In light of this situation that came up, I will extent your deadline to bring Lelouch dead or alive to me for the return of Japan," Schneizel said. "Thank you for doing that," Ohgi said grateful to Schneizel. When all business was said and done, the video chat ended. " I guess we will have to start from scratch again," Vietta said and everyone agreed. "Is it possible for Rakshata to be able to track the Guren somehow," Tohdoh asked knowing that Rakshata was the one design and build the Guren. "I asked her if she could track the Guren. She said it may be possible, but it would take some time to try," Ohgi answered with concern on his face.

"What is it Ohgi that has you concern," Viletta asked the man she was in love with. "It has to do with Kallen," Ohgi answered as everyone now looked to him. "What about that traitor," Chiba asked with anger still in her voice. "We have to get Kallen away from Lelouch no matter what," Ohgi answered with seriousness in his voice. "Why does it matter," Tohdoh asked as he wanted the answer for Ohgi's reason. "It has to do with what Naoto said to me before he was killed," Ohgi answered and Viletta then asked, "What do you mean?" "Just before Naoto die, he said to me was to make sure that Kallen was safe no matter what and to let Kallen be used by them," Ohgi answered with confusion with the last words that Naoto said before he died. "Don't let who use Kallen," Tohdoh asked as he did not believe that was any special about Kallen besides her skill as a Knightmare pilot form at the fight she was in.

"I do not honesty know. I never did find out what who Naoto meant," Ohgi replied as everyone around him was now curious in what secrets that surround Kallen. They also wonder if either Kallen or Lelouch knew or did not know what those secrets are. As everyone was lost in their own thoughts, they did not realize that there was someone outside by the door with a crack in it to hear the last bit about Kallen. The person listening in closed the sliding door back without being noticed and hidden in the darkness of a broken light bulb that was not fixed yet. 'Well, that is interesting to know that there is something about Kallen. I don't believe she would even know herself. I will have to check that out later,' the person thought to himself. After looking down the halls to make sure the coast was still clear and seen that it was. 'But that is for another time. Now to get who I came for here,' the person thought again as he started to head down the halls to his destination.

Once the person was out of the darkness, it was revealed to be none other than Kitsune. While Kitsune was walking through the halls of the Ikaruga. Kitsune was glad he had his image cover with him. If he did not, then he was sure that everyone would know that he was here. Kitsune had to admit that the security was impressive enough to a certain degree. Soon Kitsune arrived in front of a door of who was going to see here. Kitsune looked at the door for about ten seconds for some reason unknown to anyone who saw this, but him. The reason would be an ability that Kitsune had in his right eye. He could see the flow of time going forward or backward in the range of his sight. This ability allows him to see the time around a person, an object, or even the area he was in. It took a great deal of training for Kitsune to be able to control and master this ability. If he did not, then he would have lost his mind a long time ago. Kitsune had decided to call this power Time Sight.

Once Kitsune stopped his Time Sight, he enters the door to a room that had happened to be a Knightmare frame development lab. In this lab was a tall lady with bright blond hair, wearing a white lab coat, and had a thin brown kiseru pipe in her hand. This lady was none other than Rakshata Chawla, the Black Knight's head of Research and Development Knightmare Frame and the one who had created and build the advance frames like the Guren MK-II and the Shinkiro. Rakshata did not realized that Kitsune had entered the lab, for she was busy with finding a way to track the Guran at the request of Ohgi earlier. "I see that you are working hard," Kitsune said as he announced his present to her. The shocked Rakshata a bit at the sudden voice and one she did not ever hear before. Rakshata turned to look at who had spoken and saw Kitsune standing by the closed door.

Kitsune could now see the turquoise color eyes, her fair brown skin, the purple bindi upon her forehead, and the beauty of her Indian heritage in her blood. "Who are you," Rakshata asked as she slowly moved her hand to a button that would trip the silent alarm for the lab. "You can call me Kitsune and please stop reachng for the silent alarm button," Kitsune answered as he knew what Rakahata was going to do because of his Time Sight. "What is it that you want with me," Rakahata asked as she was trying to figure out how Kitsune knew about the alarm button. " I have come to talk with you and a few others about a proposal. I think you would be interested with I have to offer," Kitsune replied as he knew he stopped his Time Sight for the alarm button and nothing else after that. I still like to see people reaction. Kitsune figure if he kept using his Time Sight longer it would just ruin surprises and that would leave him unhappy.

"What kind of proposal are you wanting," Rakahata asked as she wonder if it would be worth her time. "I would be happy to tell you, but I would like to talk to you as well as few others at once. I don't like to repeat myself over and over. I will bring all who I want to talk to at a secure room for this discussion," Kitsune replied. Rakahata looked at Kitsune with uncertainly with his answered. "I promise that no harm will come to you and if you are not interested, I will return you here with no one knowing you left in the first place," Kitsune said as he knew with both the space and time stones, he would be able to return Rakahata to the point they left the lab. Rakahata was interested a bit in what Kitsune just said and then she said, "Okay I would like to hear what your proposal is."

Kitsune gave a smile and replies, "I am glad to hear that." Then the blue stone started to glow, which peaked Rakahata curiosity, as a blue portal appeared behind Kitsune. Kitsune turned around towards the portal and turned his head to Rakahata and said, "Lets getting going." Rakahata was taken back at what she saw what Kitsune just did, and it intrigued her. Soon the two of them were heading towards the portal to where Kitsune wanted to discuss this proposal of his. Just as soon they enter the portal, it disappears showing to anyone that entered that no one was in the lab to begin with or the signs of a portal being there. It did not take long for both Kitsune and Rakahata reached their destination. "Where are we," Rakahata asked as she was trying to figure out if that really happened to her or not.

The room that they were in had one table with a few chairs around it and with the little dust on the table showed that this room has not been used for little time. "We are in the meeting room that is used by the student council members at Ashford Academy at Area 11," Kitsune answered, and this shocked Rakahata with knowing far she was from the Ikaruga now. "I will explain how I was able to that a bit later. I still have a few more people to get for the proposal meeting. I will be right back," Kitsune said as he knew what was going on in Rakahata's mind, but knew he needed certain people to be able to help with the proposal he had in mind. The blue stone glowed once again, but this time the green stone glowed as well.

A blue portal with a bit of a green swirl appeared in front of Kitsune. Kitsune entered the portal and found who he was looking for quickly. It was tried up green hair girl that went by the name C.C. Kitsune was now at Kamine Island a week ago after Lelouch left. Just before Kitsune grabbed C.C, he took noticed that Suzaku was there as well both tired up and still knocked out. Kitsune had a grin smile appear on his face. Kitsune reached into his pocket and pulled out a few items and proceeded to walk over to Suzaku. Kitsune was finished in five minutes, and he had inspected his handy work. Kitsune laugh as he took a few pictures. After Kitsune put the camera away, he turned to C.C. and begun to untie her.

Once C.C. was free, Kitsune opened another portal with a green swirl again. Kitsune picked by C.C.'s body and entered the portal. When the portal closed, it was about this time that Suzaku started to wake up. It did not take long for Suzaku to get his head around with what just happened. Suzaku felt he was tied up by rope. Suzaku also took notice that he was along and a knife just by him. It took a bit time for him to free himself. Once freed, Suzaku headed to the Lancelot to report back to Prince Schneizel about what happened to the Emperor. Suzaku was unaware what was done to him by the person known as Kitsune.

BACK AT THE STUDENT COUNCIL MEETINGR ROOM AT ASHFORD ACADEMY

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

It had been just about 15 minutes since Kitsune had left Rakahata in the room by herself. It was then that another blue portal appeared in the room once again. Kitsune had walked out of the portal, but he was not alone. There were about 6 other people that came through the portal as well. The first person was C.C., who had regained consciousness not long after Kitsune in the portal from Kamine Island. The second was a girl with black hair in two ponytails and Rakahata realized that this was Kaguya Sumeragi, the chairwomen of the UFN. The next was a Britannia man with teal color hair and an orange piece of metal over his left. This was none other than former leader of the Pureblood a year ago, and a holder of a Geass Canceller, Jeremiah Gottwald. The next was a brown hair woman that appeared to be wearing a ninja style outfit was Sayoko Shinozaki the maid that was helping Lelouch to take care of Nunnally. The next person was another woman that had blonde type hair was Milly Ashford the once head of the Student Council at Ashford Academy now turned reporter. The last person was a man with long black hair and was wearing to be Chinese style clothing. The was Li Xinke, the pilot of the Shen Hu and bodyguard of China Empress Tianzi.

Rakahata was taken back by all who Kitsune had returned with, "Now that all of you agreed to meet with me about a proposal that I would like for all of you to hear," Kitsune said with a calm voice that go everyone attention. Kitsune made a gesture with his hand for all to take seat in the chairs that surrounded the table. Kitsune took notices the table was suddenly clean of dust from just a second ago and figured that Sayoko must have clean it with no one noticing. It was both amazing and scary at the same time when person thought about it for a bit. Once everyone was seated, Kitsune took a breath and then said, "The proposal that I have for all of you is this. How would like to have a chance to go back in time to change things for the better with both Kallen and Zero. Or should I say the man who is Zero who is Lelouch Lamperouge, or as he is known as Lelouch Vi Britannia the exile 11th Prince who declare war on Britannian to free all the Areas that Britannian had taken control." The moments that those words came out of Kitsune's mouth. All who were listening were absolutely shocked.

Omake: What did Kitsune do to Suzaku on Kamine Island

While Suzaku was knocked out, Kitsune had pulled out a number of things. They were a black pen, pink spray paint, red lipstick, quick drying hardens hairspray, a few hair care items, and a camera. Kitsune go to work on Suzaku's hair. He made half of his hair really spikey going outward with the back of his head being flat with help from the hardening hairspray and the other was done in the hair style of a girl with same hair length as Suzaku. When that was done, Kitsune took the pink spray paint and started to spray Suzaku's hair with it. Once the spray paint was applied, it was shown to be bright pink glitter spray paint that covers the brown hair. Kitsune took the red lipstick and did a sloppy job with it on Suzaku's lip. The lipstick that was used would not come off for a least a week.

Finally, Kitsune grabbed the black pen and went to work. Once Kitsune was done, he had to hold back from busting out loud with laughter. On Suzaku's forehead was a message that said I'm A Girly Pilot. On the eye lids was what looked like eyes while closed. There were also few other doodles done of his face. The thing with the black pen was it was going to take a about 2 weeks with a lot of cleaning to try to make that work on face to be gone.

After Suzaku left Kamine Island, it did not take long for him to return to Avalon. Once aboard, Suzaku headed toward where Prince Schneizel was at. The people that Suzaku was mouth dropped or were holding in their laughter. The moment that Suzaku entered the room, everyone was suddenly quiet as they looked at Suzaku. Suzaku saw that Prince Shneizel was there along with Princess Cornelia, Kannon, Gino, Anya (who return before Lelouch, C.C., and Suzaku left C's World), Cecile, and Lloyd were in the room as well. As soon as they saw Suzaku, if took all the control that they had to laugh out loud with the new look Suzaku had. "What is with the new look you have going on Suzaku," Gino said as he was hold down a laugh and Anya took pictures with her phone at Suzaku.

"What are you talking about," Suzaku asked with confusion while noticing that they were shaking. Prince Schneizel pointed at a mirror he had hanging in the room for some reason. The moment Suzaku saw what done, his face turned pale white and yelled, "WHO THE HELL DID THIS CRAP TO ME?" Soon everyone could not hold in any longer, and all fall down to floor as they rolled on the ground laughing so hard. Suzaku was mortified at this and took off running out of the room and headed to his room. Once there, Suzaku started to do anything to get rid of what was done. He would learn later that no matter what he did the stuff would not be coming out in a day or two. It would be 2 weeks for him, but even than no one could not help but laugh when they saw him. It should be noted that the pink spray paint matches the same hair color as Euphie.

Suzaku was under the believeth that Lelouch was the one that did it, but it unknown if Suzaku would ever learn that it was really Kitsune, who he had never seen before, was the one responsible for the prank that led to label Suzaku as the Girly Pilot Knight of the Knight of Round.

Code Geass: Back to The Past for a New Future

Chapter 4: From Proposals to Planning

The seven people that Kitsune had gathered in the meeting room were not looking at Kitsune what he just said. Rakahata, Milly, Li Xingke, and Kaguya were shocked by who the true identity of Zero. "You make it sound like Lord Lelouch is still alive," Jeremiah said as he hoped that Lelouch is still alive. "I believe some explanations are in order for all of us to be on the same page," Kitsune said calmly. "Miss Kaguya what exactly did the Ohgi and the other Black Knights have told you about Zero," Kitsune asked with everyone looking to her. "All that was said that Zero had died from injuries during the fight in the Tokyo Settlement and nothing more than that," Kaguya answered with both Li Xingke and Rakahata nodded their heads in agreement. "It seems that you three were not told the whole story then," Kitsune replied with knowing where to start from in these talks.

"You see after the battle in the Tokyo Settlement, a ceasefire was called between the Black Knights and the Britannians by Prince Schneizel. Zero or Lelouch was in despair at the death of Nunnelly and Schneizel took this moment to strike. Schneizel had taken upon himself to inform the higher rank Black Knights member on the identity of Zero. With some evidence that he was able to manipulate, he had turned them against Zero," Kitsune said as everyone had different reaction to with what they heard. Jeremiah and Sayoko were surprises at what happened to Lelouch while they were trying to find any trace that Nunnally was alive by chance. When they heard that Lelouch was dead, it hit them hard that failed to protect both Nunnally and Lelouch. Rakahata was shocked at knowing what happened while she was looking over the Guren that Lloyd, or as she calls him the Earl of Pudding, had done to her child. Rakahata was not informed on any of this by Ohgi or the others.

Kaguya and Li Xingke were stunned at what had occurred, but they were sure that there was more to it. Milly was confused and shocked by what she was hearing. C.C was the only person not showing any emotions to what was being said so far, but with part of the proposal that Kitsune gave. "Schneizel went even farther to cement the betrayel against Lelouch by informing them about how he had the power to control people to do what he says by using the power known too few as Geass. Schneizel had them believe that Lelouch was controlling them from the start. It was then that Schneizel had proposal on them if they were either kill of hand Lelouch over to him, then he would give Japan to the Black Knight. It was Ohgi that accepted the deal not knowing that was consequences that he did not think about," Kitsune said with drew more surprises. "What are the consequences you are referring and what is this Geass you just mention," Kaguya asked as she fear for what the consequences that Ohgi may have caused.

"For the consequences it is simply to explain. If Schneizel did return Japan, then the members countries that are a part of the UFN would feel betrayed that Black Knights did not care to help them. This was in caused the UFN to be dissolve and Britannian would have nothing to fear then. It is more than likely that Schneizel had no intention to keep his word about to return Japan. He would have to make some excuse to give and possible drag the Black Knight into doing his work. There are probably more unforeseen consequences that we do not know about at this point," Kitsune answered, and everyone slowly realized the truth what Ohgi may have caused by not thinking. Kaguya came to conclusion that if the UFN was to learn what happened then everything that was worked for would be for nothing.

"Now for what Geass is. To some it is considered a wish of sort, but to others it may as be a curse. When a person is given a Geass it is manifested differently in people. One person could hear the thoughts of the people around them. For another they could stop time around them with a certain range. The list is endless on the powers of Geass," Kitsune explain, and this led to further surprise for all. "Why was Lelouch taking the death of Nunnally hard? He is just a simple student that lives with his brother Rolo at the school," Milly asked which shocked looks from both Jeremiah and Sayoko. "Give me a moment to check something," Kitsune said with concern in his voice as the yellow stone glowed. Everyone took noticed of the glowing stone and wonder what was going on.

Soon the stone stopped glowing and Kitsune said with understanding in his voice, "I see what is going on now. Jeremiah if you would be so kind to use your Geass Canceller." Jeremiah did what Kitsune asked and used the Geass Canceller. Once the blue field appeared, the effect of the Geass was released from the two people present in the meeting. The first was Sayoko who remembered that Lelouch used his Geass on her to use a voice recorded on a phone call to Kallen in the bathroom. The second was Milly who was now remembering the truth she knew of Lelouch. "I remember everything. The Emperor had somehow manipulated my memories," Milly informed all. "Yes, the Emperor had the Geass ability to rewrite the memories of anyone. This is also the reason that Zero was not heard for in over a year," Kitsune said and then Kaguya asked, "How was the Emperor able to get to Lelouch to do it?"

"During the Black Rebellion, Lelouch had gotten news that his sister was kidnapped and he headed to Kamine Island to rescue he, but he was stopped by Suzaku. Lelouch has asked Suzaku to help him to save Nunnally, but he refused. Suzaku was able to overpower Lelouch and dragged him to the Emperor. It was then that Suzaku had asked to be Knight of Round for bring him Zero. The Emperor was able to make Lelouch forget all about who he really was," Kitsune answered with a sad look upon his face. Both Milly and Kaguya brought their hands to their mouth. Jeremiah, Sayoko, and Li Xingke were clutching their fist in rage at how Suzaku threw away his friendship for the title of the Knights of Round. Rakahata was shocked, but she took noticed that C.C. did not react like the rest of them.

"Why are you not reacting like the rest of us," Rakahata asked and soon all, but Kitsune looked towards C.C. for an answer. "I already knew that Emperor had a Geass, and I was the one who help Lelouch to remember who he truly was," C.C. answered and this shocked the again. "You would know after all you had been alive for a few hundred years and knew both Charles and Marianne including their plan," Kitsune said as he looked at C.C. with a little anger in his eyes. Kitsune hated that C.C. knew the answers that Lelouch needed to know, but just kept quiet about it. "How do you know that she had been alive for that long and what plan," Milly asked. "C.C is what is known as a Code Bearer. A Code Bearer are unable to age or die once they gain the code. They also have the ability to give the power of Geass to people if they agree to a contract," Kitsune answered and C.C. said, "You have not right to inform them of that."

"Don't give me that. Most of the crap that Lelouch went through could have been avoided if you just opened that mouth of your," Kitsune said with anger in voice as stare in rage at C.C. across from him. Before C.C. could say something, Kitsune beat her to it by saying, "If you were just honest with Lelouch he would not be as mentally broken as he was earlier today." "What do you mean," Milly asked as most of them were having a bad feeling at what the answer was. "Lelouch had contracted Kallen to meet him, and he knew that Kallen would most likely been followed by the Black Knights without her knowing. Lelouch was not going to let the Black Knights take him prisoner and was going to have them kill him. Lucky I was able to intervene and save both Kallen and Lelouch," Kitsune answered, and everyone was shocked but then relieved. "So Master Lelouch is alright then," Sayoko asked with concern in her voice.

"For the most part. I will bring both you and Jeremiah to his location after this meeting," Kitsune said, and this brought a small smile to Sayoko. "What do you mean for the most part," Jeremiah asked and Kitsune took a breath at the question. "I won't sugar coat it. With all that happened with the death of Nunnally, the Black Knights betrayal, and the truth that he learned on Kamine Island along with other things that happened before. I believe that it was too much on him and was seeking an end to it all. Right now, Kallen is with him and I banking on her to help him is some way to bring him away from the path of self-destruction he's on," Kitsune answered with eyes closed. "What did he learn on Kamine Island," Kaguya asked and Kitsune replied, "I will Lelouch explain that part. It is for him to tell."

"What did you mean earlier about going back to the past to change for the better," C.C. asked as this was bothering her since she heard this. "I am willing to send some of yall to help Lelouch to rewrite things in the past to bring a better outcome of the future. You see the future as it now is heading towards a dark path with no light of hope in sight. I believe that all of yall will be a big help in that change," Kitsune answered. "How do you mean," Li Xingke asked. "If yall agreed, then this opens up possibility to all here in some way. With Rakahata knowledge in the field of medical cybernetics that she knows next to creating Knightmare frames, she would be able to create some medicine to help with your health. With your health improve you may be able to better protect Tianzi and deal with High Eunuchs with possible help from Lelouch. With both Jeremiah and Sayoko help, they will be able to help Lelouch and keep Nunnally save in their ways of things. Kaguya will be about to help the Lelouch in certain points when he becomes Zero. And with Milly I believe she can become a big help for Lelouch with the hidden connections that both her and her grandfather Ruben has," Kitsune answered as everyone was seeing the good points.

"What about Rakahata and C.C.," Milly asked as she did not hear what Kitsune said for them. "For Rakahata I believe that with knowledge that she now knows, she will be able to possible to create better Knightmares and with some planning to capture the Lancelot as a sort of revenge for what Lloyd did to the Guren. As for C.C., I am giving her a chance to make thing right with Lelouch for once," Kitsune replied as he looked at C.C. with a look that said she better do it. Rakahata was thinking about what Kitsune just said and slowly a grin of a smile began to appear at the thought of getting payback of sort on the Earl of Pudding. One by one they were liking what they were hearing, and they came to an agreement of accepting Kitsune's proposal. "I am truly glad that all of yall have agreed to the proposal. Now I will return some of yall to where yall were at before for yall to take care of any business to be done and ready anything yall may need with you. I will come and get yall in the coming time before I will send yall into the past," Kitsune said with a smile.

"I do have one question. Why did you not include Tianzi in this meeting," Li Xingke asked as he wanted to know. "The reason is that I believe it may be a little too much for her to understand what is happening at her age at this moment. Once you are in the past and rid of the High Eunuchs out of the way, you will be able to help Tianzi to be a proper empress of China that she can become with the right guidance," Kitsune answered and saw Li Xingke nodded his head in accepting that answer given. With this the meeting came to an end. Kitsune had returned Kaguya, Li Xingke, Milly, and Rakahata to where there were before. Once they were dropped out, Kitsune then took C.C., Jeremiah, and Sayoko to the hanger that Kallen and Lelouch were at. It was about two minutes when they left when the door to the meeting room open and reveal to be Rivalz. "I could had sworn that I heard voices from here. I guess I was wrong," Rivalz said out loud as he closed the door.

Once again, a blue portal had appeared in the middle of the hanger. Kitsune, Jeremiah, Sayoko, and C.C. all exited the portal and when all of them were out of the way, Kitsune had made the portal disappear once more. "Since it is the middle of the night, I believe it to be best for all of to get some rest. Jeremiah and Sayoko there are some beds set up in the back of the hanger. Both Lelouch and Kallen are in there and should be asleep by now. I have some things that I need to talk C.C. about for a bit," Kitsune said as he pointed to the doors that both Lelouch and Kallen entered before. Both Jeremiah and Sayoko agreed and headed off to the doors. Sayoko opened the door and both Jeremiah and Sayoko took noticed that the room was dark. Suddenly the lights in the room started to come on, but it stopped at a dim setting that just let the two of them see around the room.

With the bit of light that had turned on, both Sayoko and Jeremiah saw that both Kallen and Lelouch were holding each other in the same bed. This brought a smile to the two of them. Sayoko was positives that if Milly was here, she would be taking pictures of them just to embarrass them later just to see the two of them blushing red. After a moment, both Jeremiah and Sayoko entered the room and leaving both Kitsune and C.C. in the hanger. "How do you know things that no one should know," C.C. asked as soon as she saw the door closed. "The reason I know is because of the collective consciousness or to be more specific it was the Caretaker of Spacetime that told me," Kitsune answered as he looked C.C. directly in the eyes and his answer shocked her. "It seems that the Caretakes was quite happy with what Lelouch did to stop Charles and Marianne plan. I was here on request as a favor for the Caretaker," Kitsune said.

"What is the reason for Caretaker for being you here to do a favor," C.C. asked trying to figure out what was going on. "It seems that when the Sword of Akasha exploded it damaged Lelouch's eye, and this set this world to death with no one being able to survive to what will happen with the Pandora's Box that Schneizel will open. It would be stopped by Lelouch with his Geass, but that is no longer an option with time that had passed already," Kitsune answered with a sigh. Kitsune knew if the Geass that Lelouch had not been broken like it did then everything would happen how it was supposed to be if not a bit different given this world possible outcomes in the futures. "I figure the best thing to do would be to send Lelouch and some allies to the past and change certain events that may change things in a better way for all," Kitsune said and then C.C. looked at Kitsune with curiosity as he closed his eyes as he was thinking.

Kitsune then opened his eyes after a moment and said, "But I am going to help Lelouch and the other in a few ways." "What do you mean," C.C. asked. "I am going to provide them with some supplies that will come in handy for them," Kitsune answered with a small smile. C.C. was confused on what Kitsune just said. "I believe it may be best if you get some sleep. There will be possible more talking to be done tomorrow to get a plan in motion," Kitsune said, and C.C. started to head for the door. Just as C.C. reached for the handle, she turned and asked, "Are you not going to get sleep as well?" "I will get some sleep later. I got a few things to take care of at the moment," Kitsune replied as he started to head towards the hanger doors. C.C. enters the room and as she closes the door behind her, Kitsune has a portal open before him and enter it.

IN THE HANGER BEDROOM

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

It was about two hours at least since Jeremiah, Sayoko, and C.C. had fallen asleep once they got into separate beds. As they slept, at some point Lelouch was no longer holding Kallen, but she still had her arm across Lelouch's chest as they slept. All of them were sleeping peacefully except for one person. Lelouch face was showing like he was in pain as he slept. Lelouch was having really bad nightmares. Lelouch was started to sweat, and his body was moving around in panic. It was not long before this awoke Kallen from her sleep. Kallen looked at Lelouch with sleepy eyes and her eyes went wide open as she saw what was happening with Lelouch. "Wake up Lelouch," Kallen said in worry as she tried to shake Lelouch to wake him. At the sound of her voice, soon the other three were awoke as well and look to see what the caused.

It did not take long for Lelouch to wake up in a gasp. He sat up quickly as Kallen moved to the side to let him sit up. Kallen took noticed of the sweat coming down on his face, he was breathing heavy, and in his eyes was scared panic as he looked around him. The moment Lelouch saw Kallen, he quickly grabs her in a hug and pulls her to him. Kallen was taken back for a moment, but soon she hugs Lelouch back. Before anyone could say anything, Lelouch says, "Thank God you are alright." "What happened Lelouch," Kallen asked as she tries to help Lelouch to calm down. "It was terrible nightmare that has been plaguing me for a week now. I keep seeing the faces of Euphemia, Shirley, Nunnally, and others. They were cover in bleed and they were blaming me for their deaths. I then being chased by the Black Knights, Britannian, Schneizel, and Charles with Marianne all of them in monstrous Knightmare Frames. Then seeing you lying dead on the ground. When I go to your body, suddenly I get stab by you with your pouch knife you had carried around. It always different when I sleep, but it pretty much the same. I have not been able to sleep properly," Lelouch said as he was calming down as he continued to hug Kallen close to him.

Kallen realized that Lelouch was needing some reinsurance that she was still alive. The other three people in the room were listening to what Lelouch had said. Both Jeremiah and Sayoko were a bit heartbroken at what was happening to the person that they pledge to serve. C.C. did not show any emotions, but deep inside she was a bit worried. "It's okay now. I am here and I am not going anywhere," Kallen said a bit over and over again by Lelouch ears as he really calms down by the sound of her voice. Once Lelouch had calmed down, Kallen stopped talking and soon the two released the hug to give each other a bit of space but stay in an arm reach. It was then that both Kallen and Lelouch realized that they were not alone in the room.

"How are the three of you here," Lelouch asked in surprised with who he saw. "Kitsune had brough the us here to help you with the proposal plan to time travel to the past, My Lord," Jeremiah answered. "I believe we should return to our bed and try to get some sleep. We can talk more in the morning. Will you be okay," Sayoko said with a bit of worried in her voice as she asked Lelouch a question. "Yes, I should be fine now. But I don't know if I will be able to go back to sleep. I will probably just lay down for the rest of the night," Lelouch replied with everyone hearing at how tired he was at the moment. "You are getting some sleep, and I am not taking no for an answer," Kallen said with a firm tone in her voice. Lelouch would have said something, but he knew it would had been pointless since this was Kallen he was dealing with. It was not long until everyone was back in their beds. Kallen had wrapped her arm around the front of Lelouch and pulled him close to her. It did not take long until everyone had returned to sleep.

MORNING AT THE ABANDON HANGER

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Morning had finally come to those that were sleeping. Soon Lelouch and the others had risen from their slumber. Once they are awakened, one by one they got change into some clothes that were provide for them. All of them had figure that Kitsune was the one who had placed the clothes by the changing room. After they got changed, they exited the sleeping room and once again entered the hanger. They took noticed that one of the hanger's big doors was open. They decided to exit the hanger and maybe they could figure out where they were exactly. Once out the hanger, they looked around and seen that they were at what looked to an abandon Japan military air base. They also noticed that there was a table with some chairs that was set up with what to believe to be breakfast. Kitsune was need the table and was currently eating. "About time yall got up. Come get some breakfast while it is still hot and fresh," Kitsune said to them with a smile.

Lelouch and the others got to the table and saw that the breakfast was nothing to crazy for them to eat. One by one each of them got a plate full of food and started to eat. They were enjoying the meal that they were having at the moment. Kitsune had finished his food and said to them, "While yall are eating, I will go ahead and tell yall here what the plan is going to be until I sent yall back into the past." Everyone nodded their heads as the ate and wonder what he had in mind. "I believe it would be best to for some training to be done. The reason for the training is that when I send yall back to the past, I am going to be sending the current skill that you have at this time," Kitsune said as everyone gave a moment to think on that. "What kind of training that you think that we need," Kallen asked in wonder.

"I am glad that you asked that. For one thing I think that with myself, Jeremiah, and Sayoko will be teaching you in hand-to-hand combat outside of piloting your Knightmare Frame. With this you should be able to give a proper fight against Suzaku when the time comes," Kitsune answered and that Kallen gave a certain smile that she was so going to enjoy beating the crap out of Suzaku when the chance arises. "I would like to know why you have brought C.C., Jermiah, and Sayoko here," Lelouch asked. "The reason would be is because I think that these three along with the other four that are not here would be the best people to help you in the past," Kitsune answered and then Kallen asked, "How so?" "With Sayoko she will now be better aware when protecting Nunnally from V.V., Mao, and others. For Jeremiah he will be in position in the military to be able to get information and provide some supplies that may be needed. C.C. can be useful to you when she not eating pizza," Kitsune replied as he looks at C.C. as she is eating a breakfast pizza. "Who are the four others that you mention," Lelouch asked.

"The first is Li Xinke, as with his help in China, this will provide you with help from if you need it. The next will be Rakahata as she was not a part of the betrayal, she will be able to rebuild some proper Knightmare Frame and with the knowledge she has now, maybe even make them better than before. The following person will be Kaguya Sumeragi since she is a big supported for Zero in the past. This will allow yall some assistance when you remake your debut again. As for the last that will be Milly Ashford. With some connections the Ashford has, she may be able to get you a Knightmare factory," Kitsune answered and Lelouch was shocked that Kitsune had gotten Milly involve with this. Lelouch could not but see the positives of the people that Kitsune was able to gather to help with what could be the best results to change things.

"More on that later, right now I was talking about training before your trip back to the past. With Kallen training, I believe that when she got a good grasp of hand-to-hand combat, then she can possible learn how to wield a blade like proper knife or one of the kunai that Sayoko uses," Kitsune said and Kallen had to agree with training the Kitsune had proposed. Kallen was looking forward to the training before her just so she can kick the crap out of Suzaku. "Now for the training for you, Lelouch. I believe some exercise is in order," Kitsune said as he looked at Lelouch and seen his skin just pale white at the moment the word exercise was said. "Why? I am more brains than muscle. There is no way you can get me to exercise," Lelouch said as he tries to say anything to not exercise. Kitsune looked at Lelouch and then said, "You need the exercise as you need the stamina to be able to keep up with others on foot. Do I need to remind you when your mask was on Arthur's head at Ashford or when you tried to stop the Ganymede had the tomato container with C.C. in it.?"

The moment that Kitsune had mention those two events, Lelouch was red face with embarrassment in remembering. Jeremiah held back a laugh, but a small chuckle escaped. Sayoko had covered her mouth with her hand to hide a smile that was forming. C.C. made no attempt to hide at how amuse and she remembered at how fun it was to watch Lelouch run after the Arthur the cat. Kallen was already trying to form a plan to stop Arthur from getting Zero's mask and make sure that she did not have to kiss anyone at the Ashford Academy as a reward by Milly. There was only one person that she was going to give kisses too. "And look at this way. If you do the exercise, then you won't have tree stick of a body you have not and be able to fight when you need in without relying on a gun," Kitsune said and Lelouch was slowly come to realize that Kitsune did have a point.

"And if you have better stamina, then you and Kallen, or any other girls that catches your eye, for some bedroom loving that may happen at some point. That is if yall want to start a family," Kitsune say with a foxlike grid as he saw both Kallen and Lelouch explode red in the face with what just implied. Once again both Kallen and Lelouch had a feeling of Milly again. "Thats a wonderful idea Kitsune," C.C. said with a grin of her own. "It is important for my Lord to have future heir," Jeremiah said with a smile and Sayoko was in agreement as the thought of being able to help serve Lelouch and his future family. "Don't worry will won't try to kill you with the exercise. Who know Kallen may be willing to reward you with kisses if you complete your exercise goals for the day," Kitsune said as he was secretly enjoying as he messes with these two.

Lelouch was still in embarrassment with the comment about his stamina but got to thinking about the kisses he could get from Kallen. As for Kallen, she was still red in the face and was thinking along the lines that maybe her kisses would be not only a good motivation for Lelouch to exercise, but also to use when Lelouch was being a bit unreasonable at times. "Okay I will try to exercise," Lelouch said as he knows that there was no way that he could get out of this. "You will be doing different exercises between myself, Jeremiah, and Sayoko when one of us is not training Kallen. It will also be best if both Jeremiah and Sayoko train to better hone their current skills. C.C. is also going to trained, so she can work off the pizza gut she may possibly have but is somehow hiding it," Kitsune said as both Jeremiah and Sayoko had agreed and as for C.C., she had an annoyed looked on her face with what Kitsune just said.

After taking a moment to calm herself from trying to killed Kitsune for his comment, C.C. had asked, "I have to ask, how are you going to send us back to the past?" "I am going to use a combination of Infinity Stones that I have on me," Kitsune answered, and this got everyone's attention. "What are the Infinity Stones that you mention. Is that how you are able to open portals to places and how you fixed Lelouch's eyes," Kallen asked. "You would be correct in your observation. You see there are six stones that are refer to as the Infinity Stones. Each Stone on their own had their own power. But when all six are together then the possibly are endless," Kitsune answered. Everyone was shocked with what kind of power that Kitsune has.

"I only have five stone and that is all I really need," Kitsune said. Lelouch looked intrigue and asked, "Would you be willing to tell us more about these Infinity Stone?" Kitsune took a moment to think and then replied, "I don't see the harm in yall knowing." Kitsune took out the small metal box that Kallen had seen the day before and took out what stones that were inside along with the ones on his gauntlet and placed them on the table for all to see. "The first will be the Space stone that is blue. The Space Stone allows one to open portal to anywhere that they want to go and be there in just a second," Kitsune said as he picked up the blue stone to show everyone before he placed it in the box. "The next will be the Mind Stone which is the yellow. The Mind Stone is capable of controlling people just like your Geass. If given proper time and training one can be able to read and see into mind of others," Kitsune said as he showed the Mind Stone before doing the same with the Space Stone.

"For the third would be the Reality Stone that is the red stone. It can allow one the ability to alter the reality around them to around them and can even disrupt the laws of physics. But I only use it to show others my memories of what I have seen," Kitsune explained as he picked up the red stone. "For the next stone will be the Power Stone which is the purple stone. Just as the name implied, it can either give a person a boost of strength or even provide an energy boost to anything," Kitsune said with the purple stone in his hand as he shows them. "For the last stone that I have on hand is the Time Stone that is green. This stone can control and manipulate time that is around the holder, the time around others, or even the time of both environment and thing if needed," Kitsune said as he picks up the last stone to show before he placed it the metal box with the other stones.

"What about the last Infinity Stone," Sayoko asked as all of them only counted five stones. "The last stone is known the Soul Stone which is an orange color. This stone can allow one to control and even manipulate the souls of people of the wielder choice. If may be even allow one to interact with the souls of the dead," Kitsune said with a look of detest with what the last stone could do. "Why do you not have that stone. I would think that would be useful in situations you may run across," C.C. asked. "The reason is that I believe that nothing good could come from having that stone. That is the one stone which no one would be willing to get," Kitsune answered as he closed his eyes for a bit. "What do you mean by that," Jeremiah asked as he was curious for the reason for Kitsune's words.

"The reason is the stone is hidden on an unknown planet in a different dimension that only a few can get to. Once on this planet, one must head to what is to be what is be a kind of alter. At this alter; to get the stone, one must sacrifice a person that is close to one's own heart by their death," Kitsune replied as everyone look shocked by the information that was given. All of them realized what Kitsune was meaning with his words before about getting the Soul Stone. No one there was willing to pay that kind of price. "Even if a person has able to get their hands on one of the stones, the stone's powers would be too much for them to handle and will destroy them in an instant. There are a select few that can handle in holding stone. I happened to be one of them and with this control gauntlet I can use the stones to aid me when needed," Kitsune added so he can give them a reason to not to try to hold any of the five stones that he has.

Everyone took his hidden warning that they should not touch any of the stone no matter what. "While we are here, I am going to help yall in your training with the help of certain Infinity Stones to speed up so yall will be ready," Kitsune said with tone in his voice that somehow gave them drive for them to train their hardest. "I have been wanting to ask you this question that had been on my mind for a while now. Where did you happen to bring us to," Sayoko asked and everyone was soon wondering the same thing. "We are currently at one of the abandoned Japan's militaries air force bases that are not long in use. This base happens to be on one the few Islands around Japan and the name of this Island is Miyake, which is about south of Japan," Kitsune answered, and everyone was surprised that they were still close to Japan.

"I figured with this abandoned base close to Japan, this may give us some time while Schneizel's forces and the Black Knight from finding us. I would give it about a month or two before anyone shows up by chance," Kitsune informed them. With Lelouch and the others now learning with the possible time that they may or may not have and to get started with their training as soon as possible. "I also want to mention that beside the physical training that yall will be doing, yall will be training to your skill with piloting Knightmares on some simulators that I got hands on. While training is going on, I will slowly gather some of the others here and get some of them ready," Kitsune added.

Everyone was finishing their breakfast and decided to their training started now. "Before yall get started with training. I like to talk to both Kallen and Lelouch for moment about something that is important," Kitsune said as he motioned for both Kallen and Lelouch to follow him to a nearby hanger that was different from the hanger that they come out from. Once in the hanger, Kitsune turned to face both Kallen and Lelouch. "First thing first. Lelouch I am going to give you a special kind of shot that should help you as you are training. It will take some time for it work, but you will have to be patience. I promise that it is nothing harmful to your health," Kitsune said and Lelouch slowly nods his head in accepting the shot. Kitsune had pulled out syringe from his dimensional space pocket. Both Kallen and Lelouch saw that the contents inside the syringe was deep blue in color. They were wondering what exactly was in the syringe. "Okay, here we go now," Kitsune said as he stuck the syringe in Lelouch's right arm and released the contents of it into Lelouch. Lelouch felt a pinch when the syringe needle broke the skin but was not in pain.

Once the syringe's content empty, Kitsune removed the syringe from Lelouch's arm. With that done, Kitsune faced both Kallen and Lelouch. "I want to let you know that when I was aboard the Ikaruga to get Rakshata. I overhear Ohgi and the others talking and something that Ohgi said caught my attention," Kitsune said, and this got both Kallen and Lelouch attention. "What was it," Lelouch asked and Kitsune replied, "Ohgi mention something that Naoto told him about Kallen before he died." Kallen was shocked to hear something about her brother that Ohgi never told her, and she asked, "What did Naoto told Ohgi?" "From what I heard Naoto told Ohgi to keep you safe and to make sure that you were not used by them," Kitsune answered, and this left both Kallen and Lelouch confused. "Who did Naoto want to keep Kallen safe from," Lelouch asked as he wanted to know who would dare to try to either harm or use his queen for whatever propose. "That I do not know, and I don't believe that Ohgi don't know as well. This may be a wild guess, but I believe that whatever Naoto information that he found out may have been the reason that he was kill. As I said that is just a guess," Kitsune replied as he wishes he knew what Naoto had known what the mystery that surround Kallen.

Kallen was now shaken up with this reveal information that her brother knew and it somehow involves her. Lelouch took noticed at how his love was at the moment and he pulled her into a hug to calm her nerves. As Kallen felt the embracement from Lelouch, she was starting to calm down and realized that Lelouch was now doing the same thing that she was doing for him by being there for both support and comfort. After a few minutes, they separated from the hug and faced Kitsune once again. "Sorry for dropping this in your lap, but I figure that yall had a right to know. I think yall may be able to find the answered they yall seek when yall are back in the past," Kitsune said to the two. Both Lelouch and Kallen both agreed that they would find the answers along with changing things. The three of them soon started to head back outside. Before they exited, Kitsune said to them, "Lelouch, I believe that the evening when yall are resting from training, you should inform the others about what happened on Kamine Island. They should know the truth, so they will be prepared for they may face when the time comes." Lelouch gave this some thought and nodded his head as he knew Kitsune had a point about this. Soon their training for the time travel into the past is about to begin.

Code Geass: Back to The Past for a New Future

Chapter 5: Training the Body, Sharping Skills, Healing the Mind, and Talking Plans

It did not take long before Lelouch, Kallen, and Kitsune had returned to the others. Once they were back, Kitsune had suggested to them for them to change their clothing for some workout clothes. It took a few minutes, but soon all of them changed clothes. "What is the plan for this training," Lelouch asked. "First we will start with some stretches to loosen up your bodies. Following that will be exercises that will not only help strengthen yall bodies but improve yall stamina as well. There will be breaks at certain times along with lunch and dinner. We will also get some hand-to-hand combat training and also get yall to improve your Knightmare piloting skills as well," Kitsune answered. "I been wanting to ask you this is why are we training in the first place," Kallen asked as she has been wondering about this for a while. "The reason is when I send yall back to the past, I am going to send you with your new improve skill that you will have back with yall to give yall an edge in your battles," Kitsune answered, and everyone was surprised by his answered.

"I am taking a guess that it will be possible with those Infinity Stones," Lelouch asked as he figured that was the correct answer. "You would be correct. With the Infinity Stones I am going to merge you of the now with the past you. There is one thing that I am not sure about when I do this," Kitsune replied, and everyone looked towards him. "What would that be," Lelouch asked with curious look on his face. "It has to do with Jeremiah," Kitsune answered. "What does this have to do with me," Jeremiah asked as he was concern. "I am not sure how it will work with you being a cyborg being merge with yourself in the past self that is human. I don't have a clue what will happened. It could be possible that your memories will transfer. Maybe your current body will go with you in the past. I just don't know to be honest," Kitsune replied, and everyone now realized by what Kitsune meant before.

"It could be possible that the Geass Canceller could be a part of Jeremiah's past self without the cyborg parts. The Geass Canceller is too much of important tool to lose. That is why when I go get Rakahata, I will see if she can do some studies on Jeremiah and see if she can replicate it in the past. If she can, then she may be able to make either a handheld device or even equip some Knightmare frames with it that can counter Geass powers that may have similar effects like Rolo's Geass," Kitsune said. The moment that Lelouch heard this, he figured with the handheld device can be use in a number of different ways. The few purposes of the device would be able to counter Mao, stop Euphemia from the command that he gave by accident, and for Kallen to use on him in case his father use his Geass on him if he was caught again or anyone else for that matter. This would help in big ways that would be extremely helpful. "That will be for later, for now we need to put our focus on what he can do at this moment," Kitsune said as try to get them to focus on the now and not on the next.

Soon everyone was started to get their stretches done. Kallen and Sayoko were trying their best to help Lelouch to loosen his body properly. After the streches, all of them started with some basic exercises. Everyone was doing a good job on their exercises, except for Lelouch who was struggling with the both the lack of muscles and stamina which was to no one surprised. Somehow Lelouch was able to pull through with his shirt drenched in sweat. The day went on with their exercises and taking much needed breaks. As the evening came need, it came time for some hand-to-hand combat training to begin. "Are you sure you want us to train with how tired we are at this moment," Kallen asked as she saw everyone was a bit exhausted from the training they have done so far. "Yes I am. But for this training part it will be different," Kitsune answered. "How is that," C.C. asked. "You see I am going to help us cheat in way that should prove to be beneficial in the coming month," Kitsune replied and had everyone attention was now on him.

"The way that this training is going to be done is going to involve me using two of the Infinity Stones," Kitsune said. "How so," Sayoko asked as they all wonder what Kitsune was going to do now. "I will use both the Time and Mind Stone to do this. With combining these two, I will put all of us in a mindscape to do a sort of mental training with the Mind Stone. With the Time Stone we will get lot hours of training done in just a few minutes. The only downside is whatever reaction time you may somehow develop in the mind, you will have to retrain your body physically to have that same reaction," Kitsune replied. Everyone was shocked by what Kitsune had said about the next part of their training. Kitsune had already placed both the Time and Mind Stone in his gauntlet as they were taking a break. Kitsune had all of them sit in circle in some shade.

Once they were all seated, Kitsune had both the stones glowing. It did not take long for the five to enter the mindscape that belong to Kitsune. All of them looked around them and saw they were in that looked to be a martial arts dojo of some kind. "I figured that this would be a proper place for us to start our training," Kitsune said as he appeared in the dojo, and he was wearing a traditional karate gi. The others took noticed that they were also wearing karate gi as well. "Now that we are all here let's get this training started," Kitsune said as he started to stretch out his arms. As they saw him stretch his arms, they took noticed that he was not wearing his gauntlet on his right hand. "Why are you not wearing your gauntlet," Sayoko asked the question that was on their mind. "The reason being is this place is in my mind so there is no reason for it to be here. Not worry we will still be able to leave from here," Kitsune replied as he finished his stretches.

Kitsune, Jeremiah, Sayoko, and surprising enough C.C. began to show both Kallen and Lelouch different fighting styles. The reason for the different fighting styles was to see what styles would work for the two. Lelouch showed he had a handle of using Taekwondo and Aikido. For Kallen she was mixing the styles of Judo, Wing Chun, Karate, and Jiu-Jitsu along with some other fighting moves that she knows. Kitsune was able to use a mental image of Suzaku for Kallen to fight against. Kitsune was able to use his Mind Stone on Suzaku on Kamine Island and was able to see how he fought. With this bit of knowledge this gave Kallen a chance to fight back against the real Suzaku when the time comes. At time Kitsune, Jeremiah, Sayoko, and C.C. would spar against two so they would try to learn to adapt to their opponent's fighting styles.

With sparring against Jeremiah, the two were shown the Britannia military fighting styles and show ways to counter it. When they fought against Sayoko, she used the Shinozaki School of martial arts style. Sayoko had shown the two her how highly skilled of a martial artist she was with combine it with her athletic talents with her using training kunai. With the two fighting Sayoko, they had to deal with fighting an opponent using knives if the situation come up. C.C. would either fight one-on-one with the styles she knew, or she would team up with Kitsune and fight both Kallen and Lelouch in either two-on-one or two-on-two. This gave the two more experience with knowing there will be time when they fought against more than one opponent. When they fought against Kitsune, he shown the to how to keep adapt when in a middle of a fight. Kitsune would change from one style to another at a drop of a hat. Kitsune made sure to not keep pattern and always changed it at random moments.

To all of them the training that they were doing seems to go on for hours. Kitsune was the one who had decided to end their training section. Once the five opened their eyes, they saw that they were no longer in the dojo and were once again sitting in a circle under some shade. "That was interesting hour of training that we got done. Just to let yall know that while we were training, I did used the Time Stone to not only to help with the mind training but also to help yalls bodies to recover a bit from the training from earlier," Kitsune said, and the others were feeling that their bodies were no longer exhausted. Kitsune had motion for the five to follow him to a different hanger then the one that all of them were in from where they slept.

When they entered the hanger, the five saw that a bunch of training mats were place on the floor and a few rubbers looking weapon close by. They also notice a few pods that was on the other side of the hanger. These pods were really Knightmare training simulators. "In this hanger is where we will either get your hand-to-hand reaction time training up to par or your Knightmare piloting skills can be improve by using higher setting," Kitsune told them as they now understood what this hanger was going to be use for. Kallen with both Jeremiah and Sayoko headed for the training mats. Kallen wanted to get her reaction time up to par and began fight with both Jeremiah and Sayoko either one at a time or both at once. Kallen was determined to put all she had learn in the mindscape training to good use.

As for Lelouch and C.C., they headed over to the simulator pods. Once they got in the pods, it did not take long for them to realized that Kitsune had set the training difficulties setting to between hard to almost impossible levels. Lelouch had seen that there was different Knightmare frames with different weapons were programed into the pods. Lelouch took noticed that the frames used by Britannia were not the only ones. There were ones used by different nations, custom frames, and even the Knightmare frame used by the Black Knights. The simulators were also program with different environment like from forest, desert, cities, skies, and many others. With everything that both Lelouch and C.C. were seeing with the simulators, this would give those that were here an edge in how to fight properly.

Kitsune made sure to had all of them rotate with their training while they are in the hanger. Kallen and Lelouch were slowly but surely getting their reaction time in hand fighting to par. Kitsune have both Kallen and Lelouch spar against each other at time. Lelouch had lost count of the number of times that Kallen had pin him down to the mats. Lelouch had to admit that Kallen definitely had skills in not only in piloting, but also in hand fighting and knew she would get better with time. Jeremiah and Sayoko would also take some time in sparing against one another. Jeremiah had taken to using the rubber sword and Sayoko had taken to using a pair of rubber kunai knives. As the two spar, if had become a guessing game for the four that watch these two for who was going to win. The two had clearly show that they had kept their skills with weapons in top form.

In the end there was no winners in the spar. With Kitsune and the others, they had a feeling that these two were going to spar as much as they can as they were training in the days to come. With the evening coming to signal them as the day was coming to an end. Kitsune had pointed to them towards a third hanger and informed them that was where some showers and some bathtubs were located with it being split with a men's and women's side. There was also some washing machines and dryers for their clothes to be clean while they were cleaning their bodies from the day's training. Soon the five were getting clean and relaxing their sore muscles. Once they finished getting clean, they returned to the first hanger, and they got shocked by what they ended up seeing before their eyes.

The hanger was completely empty this morning when they woke up and now the hanger was fill with a few things. There was a kitchen set up with table that was big for about ten people. There was even an area set up with some recliner chairs and sofas that appeared to be a relaxing area for them. They saw that dinner was set for them on the table. They all wonder how in the world that Kitsune had set all this up in so little time. It was not long until all of them were eating the food that was ready for them. As they were eating, they were soon wondering where Kitsune was at. It was not long since that thought when Kitsune had entered the hanger and headed towards them. "Where have you been," C.C. asked as Kitsune was now taking a seat at the table.

"I was taking care of a few things that had to done," Kitsune replied. Once everyone was finished eating, Kitsune said, "Not bad for the first day of training. I believe it will be best if can up this schedule for the month. I also think it will be best if on every seven days yall will take a day of rest for yall bodies don't get overworked." All five of them nodded their heads in agreement with Kitsune just said. Once the dishes were put in the sink, everyone headed for the relaxing area to take a bit of break and possible talk for a bit before heading off to bed. The only two that were going to the relaxing area were Kitsune and Kallen.

"Something on your mind Kallen," Kitsune asked as Kallen was standing not far from him and looking straight at him. "If it possible if you can use that Mind Stone of yours to help me with Lelouch," Kallen asked with seriousness in her voice. "Why do you want me to do that," Kitsune asked as he crossed his arms as he wanted to hear her answer. Kallen took a deep breath and released it as she then replies, "Last night he was dealing with a terrible nightmare from what he said and has been having them for just about a week. I just want to help the man that I love. Can you help me please?" Kitsune looked Kallen in the eyes and took noticed that a few small tears were forming in her eyes. Kitsune believe the old saying that the eyes were window into the soul.

Kitsune knew in an instant Kallen was serious in what she had asked of him. Kitsune gave a small smile and answered, "I will do it. I want you to know that you will have to be the one that will have to enter in mind when we do this." "Why," Kallen asked and Kitsune replied, "The reason is that I will have to maintain the connection between the two of you. Unlike earlier when training in my mindscape is that I still had control with it. Since this will another person mind to be going into, I won't have any control to return." Kallen understood by what Kitsune said that she will have to enter the mind of Lelouch. 'I believe it be best if we go ahead and do this now in the sleeping quarters," Kitsune said as both him and Kallen went to fetch Lelouch to get this done.

It did not take long for the three to head to the sleeping quarters. Lelouch and settle in the bed with Kallen by his side. It did not take long for Lelouch to fell asleep. Once Lelouch was sleeping, Kitsune turned to Kallen and said, "Here is how this is going to work. Once you close your eyes, I start using the Mind Stone to establish a link between your mind to his. With the link is done you will be in his mind. I will maintain the connection. When you are done, return back to where you enter at, and I will get take it from there to stop the link." Kallen nods her head in determination and began to close her eyes as she laid her head down on the pillow. "Here we go," Kitsune said as the Mind Stone was glowing and the link was starting to form between the two.

In The Mindscape of Lelouch

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Kallen opened her eye and took a look around to make sure the process had work. As she looked around her, she took noticed it was nighttime and there what to be a black fog, but it was not too thick like she thought to be. She also saw that she was on brick stone path that led to an outline of a building in the fog. The building was only shown by a crescent moon in the night sky. Kallen decided to walk down the path to the building seeing that it is was possible the only option she had. As she headed the path, she took a quick look back at where she was at and was surprised to see what was there now. It was a red chess piece that was tall as she was. Kallen soon realized that the chess piece was the queen piece in chess. Kallen laugh a bit and had to wonder if this was the doing of Kitsune or Lelouch. Kallen had then faced forward to her destination.

The walk to the building did not take long to get to. Once she got to the front of the building, she looked around it and took noticed of what to be a garden surround the building. The garden was filled with flowers, but all the flowers were all in one color only and that was black. Some of the flowers had their petals falling off them. Kallen had a hard time in making out if the flowers were dying or what. She then remembers that this was Lelouch's mind and those were not real. She looked to the building and for some reason it looked somewhat familiar to her. It was then she remembered why it did. She had seen a picture of it in a magazine. This building with the garden was none other than the Aries Imperial Villa. This was the home to Marianne Vi Britannia and her two children, Nunnally and Lelouch, for a time before the assassination of Marianne.

Kallen took noticed that the building had cracks forming on the outside walls and even the window was either crack or broken. Kallen started to approach the door that had the appearance that made it looked like it would fall off its hinges if one was to touch it. Just as she reaches for the doorknob to open it, she stopped in motion as she heard a voice from behind her said, "You should not be here Q1." Kallen turned around quickly and was surprised by who she saw. It was none then Zero. Before Kallen said anything, she took noticed of two things about Zero. There was a dark purple hazing mist the surround the air around his body like an aura but one was still able to make out the shape of his body. The other thing she saw what that Zero was not solid and more like it was fading ghost like.

"Is that you Lelouch," Kallen asked with uncertain. "No, I am not," Zero answered back in the same voice that Kallen had heard for the first moment that she met Zero. "Who are you then," Kallen asked as she started to move her body just in case, she ended up getting attack. "I am Zero or maybe it is best that I said that I am just a part of Lelouch," Zero replied. "What is this place? This looks like the Aries Imperial Villa in Britanna," Kallen asked as she gestures towards the building that was behind her. "You are correct that this building being the Aries Imperial Villa. This Villa was once a happy place for Lelouch, but it also serves as the first event of many that impacted his life," Zero answered and this left Kallen a bit of confused. "What do you mean by that," Kallen asked as she needed to know.

"It all started with the plan of V.V. to assassinate Marianne which left Nunnally both blind and crippled. The following event to happened was when the Emperor told him that both him and his sister were considered to be weak and then sent to Japan. The next was him seeing the attack that Britanna had launch against Japan all those years ago. The next event in his life was most likely the biggest impact was when he had to carry Nunnally threw an area that was fill with corpses of the dead as he tries to find a safe place of the two of them. Lelouch had to lied to Nunnally about the smell and whenever he was able to find some proper food, he made sure that Nunnally was well fed with him almost eating from little to nothing at all just for his sister to survive during that time. There were a few times that Lelouch almost did not made it, but his drive to keep Nunnally safe is what kept pushing him," Zero explaining and Kallen was turning a sickly green in the face with what she heard. Kall had no idea what both Lelouch and Nunnally went through. Kallen realized how much Nunnally was important to Lelouch. Almost like a lifeline.

"I believe if Lelouch did not have Nunnally with him, he would most likely gone insane form that ordeal. The next to happen was the betrayal from Suzaku, who Lelouch once consider to be his best friend, to hand him to the Emperor. The following was when you were caught in China, but he was doing all he could to save you as he planning his next move. Lelouch refused to leave you in the hands of the Britanna," Zero continued which brought a little red to Kallen's cheek in knowing that Lelouch cared for her. "The next event that hurt him was when Rolo had killed Shirley all because she wanted to help him. The next impact was when Nunnally was killed. This hurt Lelouch on so many levels and this was when he had decided to let the Black Knight to kill him when they betrayed him to Schneizel. If it weren't for Rolo, then Lelouch would have been dead. Lelouch was able to get his revenge, but this left him hurting even more from what he learned. Lelouch did have a plan he was going to do, but when he learned he was going blind, he decided to play his last move that involved both you and the Black Knights," Zero finished explaining all the Kallen.

Kallen was processing all that she just learned. Kallen soon realized that the Lelouch that she had come to know was nothing more than a mask that he had created a long time ago. She soon realized also that Lelouch had been hurting all this time. She started to cry a bit with the truth that was coming to her about the man that was in love with. After a moment, Kallen wiped away her tears and asked with determination in her voice, "Where is Lelouch at?" "He is inside the Villa, but I must advise you to not entered the Villa. The moment you entered the Villa you will be shown his memories. You may even reconsider your feeling for him if you learn certain truths that even you did not know about. I believe it would be best if you leave," Zero replied as he looked at Kallen. Kallen turned to face the door and replied back, "I don't care. I will do whatever it takes help Lelouch. I refused to let the man that I come to love to be in any more pain." Kallen reached for the handle and opened the door. As soon as Kallen entered the Villa, the door closed behind her.

The moment the sound of the door closing, Zero turned his head toward the sky. Zero could barely see the moon with all the black fog that was becoming thicker. 'I hope that she is able to bring out the true Lelouch. I hate this fog that had been forming for the past eight year. I can't stand at not being able to see the light of the moon in this mindscape. I believe that Kallen will be able to pull Lelouch out of the dark abyss that he has been and back to where he belongs,' Zero thought with hope. Zero started to fade away if anyone was there to see this by chance.

Inside the Villa in Lelouch's Mind

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Kallen walked through the door to enter the Villa and started her search for Lelouch. As Kallen walked through a hallway in the Villa, she took noticed at how run down the building was and the destroyed furniture. Kallen saw broken pictures frame of certain points in Lelouch's life that hung on the walls. Kallen saw some door and decided to open them to see if she could find Lelouch. The moment Kallen touched the knob she started to see the memories from Lelouch early life. Kallen released her touch on the knob to stop seeing the memories. Kallen came to the conclusion that her search for Lelouch was going to be difficult. Kallen refused to let her determination waiver even for a moment.

Kallen started in a sprint down the halls and giving the knobs of the doors she passed a touch on the chance of finding Lelouch in this Villa. The memoires that Kallen seen showed more of Lelouch's life through the years. Kallen soon came to a huge room that had a staircase that when to the second floor of the Villa. Kallen took noticed that the stairs had bullet holes on them and also saw that there were two female bodies on the ground. The first body was an adult woman with long black hair, but the strangest thing was that the woman was faceless. The second was a young girl that was under the first woman. The second girl had a face that Kallen had seen before and that was Nunnally's face with her eyes closed with tears flowing out. Kallen realized that this must be the memory from when Lelouch saw this.

Kallen sprinted up the stairs to the second floor and hoping that she was close to finding Lelouch. Kallen entered another hallway with more door. Kallen saw more memories as she touched the doors. Kallen soon started to see memoires that she was more familiar with. The memoires of Lelouch being Zero. Kallen was starting to see more as she continued to search for Lelouch. Kallen soon came upon the memory when she first learned the truth of who Zero was behind the mask on Kamine Island during the Black Rebellion. Kallen hated herself for not trying to help him in his fight against Suzaku. This only fueled her determination even more if that was possible.

She continued her search as she saw more memories. Then she came across a door that did not show a memory. Kallen hope for the best as she opened the door to look inside. Kallen saw that behind the door was a room that looked like it did not fit with how the Villa was design to be. It looked to be a rundown of a church alter with color tinted glass that show artwork of some kind that were broken in pieces on the ground. There were no church pews, but the only thing Kallen noticed in the room was a pitch-black coffin that had the same symbol that was on Zero's mask. The symbol of Geass in blood red. There was hole in the roof that was directly above the coffin. Kallen entered the room to look around for any clue, but that was then she heard the sound of a person crying.

Kallen looked for who was crying and soon found the person in question. It was Lelouch, who was hiding on the other side of the coffin from where Kallen first entered the room. Lelouch was sitting on the ground with his legs bent towards his body with his arms around his legs. With his head on his knees this gave the appearance of a human ball shape. Kallen took noticed the outfit that Lelouch was wearing was his Ashford Academy uniform, but the condition of it was torn in a few spots and it looked like it never seen better days. Kallen moved in front of Lelouch and crouch down. Kallen moved her hands to his shoulders and gave a gentle grab. Lelouch felt the touch and he moved his head up to see who it was.

The moment that Kallen saw his face, she felt her heart ache in pain for what she saw. She saw that Lelouch's eye were exactly the same when she saw them in the warehouse back in Shinjuku and was also crying. This sight that Kallen was seeing was breaking her heart at seeing the man she loves in this state. "Kallen, what are you doing here," Lelouch asked as his voice sounded broken. "I am here to help you. I can't stand to see you hurt and broken," Kallen answered. "To be honest Kallen I don't think I can go through the plan Kitsune proposed," Lelouch said as he looked to side to avoid at looking at Kallen's face. Kallen looked at Lelouch and notice that the Lelouch in front of her looked to be fading a bit. Then it hit Kallen that this Lelouch in front of her was the true Lelouch and she figure because of everyone that happened this was causing the real Lelouch to give up. Kallen knew she could not allow that to happen.

"I have to ask you this Lelouch. Before you got your Geass, you were planning to fight Britannia back then," Kallen asked as figure this may be a way to get him to snap out of this state he is in. "Yes, I was. The Geass just happened to speed up the plan I had," Lelouch answered. "You know with all the battles we fought in I noticed something crazy," Kallen said as she saw Lelouch turned to look back at her. "What is that," Lelouch asked as he was curious look on his face. "You only used your Geass either before the battle or elsewhere that was not a battle but was beneficial later on. When in battle as you were in a Knightmare frame you led us to a shot at victory without your Geass," Kallen said with a bit awe in her voice as she remembers those days. "I could not help but see those battle as a game of chess. I now learn that I should had not thought like that since it caused people close or not to lose their lives," Lelouch replied back with regret in his voice. " I believe that if we go with Kitsune's plan then you can fix those mistakes," Kallen said as she hopes that she is getting through to Lelouch.

"Why should I even try," Lelouch said as he stood up to look directly in her eyes. "Because I know you can do it. You done what no one thought was possible before. You manage to fight back against Britannia," Kallen answered as she too stood up to look Lelouch in the eyes. It was then Kallen noticed that Lelouch's eyes were changing before. They were piecing themselves together and the color was even changing. It was the same color when he used his Geass. Kallen realized that she must have gotten through to him and not she needed to push him to give him the drive that he needed.

"It's that the reason you first created Zero in the first place. It was not only to help you to protect Nunnally but to become a symbol to all. A symbol to the weak that needed hope. A symbol to the corrupt that there would be true justice. A symbol to all to keep the dream of being free from Britannia alive. A symbol to even the Emperor that he should be afraid that the once weak child that cast away for being weak can fight back with his true power. You had a goal that was made. You just need to fight for it once again. You just need to remember who you truly were before and why you were fighting in the first place," Kallen said with determination in her voice, and it was then that she heard something that she had not heard from him before in a while. Lelouch was starting to laugh. It was soft at first, but then it became loud as lift his left hand to his face. It was then he stopped laughing.

"You are correct. I can't believe I was forgetting why I was doing this in the first place. I wanted to change the world to be more peaceful for Nunnally. I hated how that the man that I have to call a father had to treat this world. He claimed that he loved both me and Nunnally, but to me that was no love not evening caring in the slight bit if we die or not. No all that matter was that stupid plan that he along with V.V. and my mother agreed with. I know Schneizel has some sort of plan that will fall along the same lines as the Emperor's plan. I refuse to be their pawn in their game. I show them that I will not be underestimated by either them or anyone else," Lelouch said as he no longer sounding broken but now sounding like a man that knew what needed to be done. Then the coffin was starting to shake. "I will bring forth a different outcome then what I did before," Lelouch said as the coffin started to shake even more.

[Music: The Eminence in Shadow OST - Nothing to Hide]

Then the lid of the coffin exploded, out of the coffin was fire that was color in deep purple. It spread throughout the alter room. The fire surrounds the two in a circle, but the flames never came close to the two. The broken color tinted glass on the floor started to rise and headed right to where the window was at. The window in question was circle in it designs of this place they were in. As the glass reassemble in the proper place. The artwork of the glass reveals the Geass symbol in a blood red color and what to be the background for it was what to be the world behind the Geass symbol. "I will become what this world truly needs. I will once again make Zero into a symbol. A symbol that will bring hope to those in need and a symbol to those that should be afraid," Lelouch said as the flames began to erupt in fury with the words that Lelouch was saying.

"FOR I AM LELOUCH THE ONE WHO WILL BEOCME ZERO," Lelouch shouted out loud. The flames suddenly headed for Lelouch. Kallen was worried for what was going to happen to Lelouch and moved to save him. It was then she noticed that the flames were not even hot. Just as the flames covered Lelouch from his head to his feet, the flames suddenly vanished. Lelouch was no longer wearing his Ashford Academy uniform. He was not wearing his Zero outfit without his mask on his head. Kallen then saw that in both of Lelouch's eyes was his Geass.

Lelouch says with determination in his voice, "I am no longer Lelouch Vi Britannia. He was dead the moment I gave up that name and all that went with it." Lelouch reached out his hand to Kallen. "Kallen, I have to ask you this. Will you stand by my side and help me change this world for the better? Will you help become the strength that Zero id going to need? Will you once more be my Q1," Lelouch asked as he looked towards Kallen. "I will," Kallen answered with a smile on her face as she took his hand. The moment Kallen's hand touches Lelouch's, he pulled her towards him and then he enveloped her in a hug and held her closed. Then Lelouch kissed Kallen on the lips and she returned it. The two kissed for what seemed to be minutes to them. Soon they parted and they looked each other in the eyes.

[Music Over]

"I love you Kallen, My Crimson Queen," Lelouch said by Kallen's ear. Kallen felt her heartbeat a bit faster the moment she heard those words. "I love you too Lelouch, My Dark King," Kaleen replied as she moved her arms around Lelouch's body. The two of them stayed like this for a few moments. Then Kallen released her hug on Lelouch and soon he did the same, but he moved Kallen to left side and held her close with his left arm by her waist. Then the two were now facing the coffin that was now empty. "Before we go, I need to take care of a personal problem of mine," Lelouch said as moved his right arm towards the coffin. Then the two were now feeling the ground to shake like an earthquake. Then all the black fog that Kallen saw when she got to the mindscape, started to gather above the hole in the roof of the alter. All the black fog was now in the form a pitch-black orb in the sky above them. In a sudden movement, the black orb started head right into the coffin. It amazed Kallen was she was seeing.

As the last of the previous orb entered the coffin, then lid came down and slammed shut tight as there was no way for someone to get out if they were in the coffin. In a blink of the eye both Lelouch and Kallen were not outside the Villa. Kallen saw that the Villa was no longer in ruins and was now in better shape. The crescent moon from before was now a full moon. "The black fog was really my nightmare that were keeping my mind from thinking straight, but you help me with that," Lelouch said. Kallen was now feeling happy that she was able to help Lelouch. "I believe you should head back to where you came in and return back to your mind. There is much for us to get ready for in the coming days. Would you say my dear Queen," Lelouch said and Kallen nodded her head. Lelouch started to remove his left arm from Kallen and just as Kallen was about to head to where she entered. She turned to Lelouch and said, "I just want to know that no matter what happens. I will always stay by side if you need me. I will never abandon you again." And with that said Kallen headed to the red queen chess piece.

Lelouch gave a small grin as he watched Kallen leave. 'Once I have finished with changing the world and dealt with Britannia, I will unmasked myself as Zero and then face the future that will be made as Lelouch Lamperouge,' Lelouch thought as he headed towards the Villa.

Back in the bedroom in the Hanger

Kallen opened her eyes and saw the sleeping face of Lelouch. "I believe that everything went well," Kitsune asked. "Yes, it did," Kallen answered. "Okey. I will go ahead and let the two of yall sleep now. See yall for tomorrow training," Kitsune said as he headed for the door. Once Kitsune exited the room, Kallen kiss Lelouch on the forehead and said in a whisper, "Good night and have good dreams." It was not long until Kallen had fallen asleep. it was about an hour or so before the other three people came into the room to get sleep as well for the night.

It was morning of the next day and Lelouch was the first to wake up. The first thing that he saw when he woke up was the sleeping face of Kallen. Lelouch could not help but let a small grin appear on his face as he watched Kallen slowly breathing as she slept. It was then that Lelouch decide to do something that we would never do in the past. Lelouch moved his face closer to Kallen's face and he then gave her a kiss right on the lips. It did not take long for Kallen to wake up from the still kissing Lelouch. Once she was fully awake, she wrapped her arms around Lelouch and pull him closer. The two were starting to really get into their make out session that they forgot one very important fact. "Master Lelouch, I know that you have feelings for Miss Kallen, but I would highly recommended that the both of you find a more private setting if you wish to take your relationship to that level. I do not believe that the present company do not wish to see this continue any further," Sayoko said that caused the two to stop they're making out.

The two turned to look and saw that Sayoko was up along with C.C. and Jeremiah. Jeremiah was looking away so he did not see the scene that may happen. As for C.C., she was another story. She was currently had a cat like grin on her face. Both Kallen and Lelouch were having the same dreading feeling that they got from actions from Milly back at Ashford Academy. "My my. I can't believe that I would actually see the so call dark prince of Ashford would do such a thing with a classmate. What would of the girls back at the academy say if they found out about this bit of info," C.C said with the grin still on her face. Kallen's face turned red as her hair, and she immediately pulled the bed sheets over her head. Lelouch was just as red in his face. Both Kallen and Lelouch were now wishing that they could just die right now to save them from this embarrassment.

"We have training to get ready for. We will give the two of you time to dress. I would like to say that I do not want you two to do that action in this room where we all sleep in and having the knowledge that you two had done the deed here to be the last thoughts on our mind," Sayoko said and she left the room followed by a still grinning C.C. and Jeremiah. Lelouch had figure that C.C. was going to make as many different comments about this as she could today. After a few moments, both Kallen and Lelouch had finally changed into their workout clothes. The two were still red in the face and could not look each other in the eyes, but this did not stop them from holding hands as they left to join the others.

The two saw the other three with Kitsune at the table with breakfast ready for them. As soon as the two sat down, Kitsune said with grin, "You know if the two of yall want some special alone time I can try to prepare a room for yall." The moment Kallen and Lelouch heard this, their bodies exploded in red and if was to look carefully one might see steam escaping from their ears. C.C. could not help but laugh at the reaction she saw from the two. Jeremiah was trying to not laugh as a gentleman. Sayoko had a small smile on her face. Kallen and Lelouch were both glad that Milly was not here, but they were both scared at what would happen once she finds out. At a distance away, Milly suddenly developed a teasing grin appear on her face as if something had just happened and once, she finds out what it was, she was going to have so much fun. Back at Miyake, both Kallen and Lelouch had cold shivers run down their spines and felt fear.

As they were eating breakfast, they began talking about their plans when their head back to the past. Jeremiah was going to do what he could to provide some parts to Kallen to fix the Glasgow that she had piloted in the past. Kallen agreed that I make her feel better with fight in a proper fixed frame then one that was being held together by duct tape and hate. Kitsune had ill advised to Lelouch about killing the rest of the JLF at the docks. When Lelouch asked why, Kitsune had replied with saying if the remaining forces of the JLF could safely escape and make it to China. With Li Xingke help there could be a chance to have an extra bit of force for the Black Knights to fight against Britannia when the time comes. Lelouch had to agree with Kitsune was saying.

"If by some chance if the same situation that got Kallen capture. I would like to avoid, if possible," Kitsune said. Lelouch gave a bit of thought and then said, "Maybe I should set Tamaki to be a decoy to be capture to be given to Britannia." "Lelouch, that would be consider crude and unusual punishment to the Britannia. They would be subject to Tamaki's big mouth that he could never keep shut," Kallen said as she busted out laughing as she could just picture the look of the faces of the Britannia as they try to deal with Tamaki. Both C.C. and Lelouch shared a laugh as well with them being familiar with how much a pain Tamaki in the Black Knight. Both Jeremiah and Sayoko were given a run down on Tamaki and they agreed that would be punishment to anyone with dealing with Tamaki.

After breakfast, Kitsune had the five follow him to a fourth hanger. When they entered the hanger, the five would see that inside the hanger was pitch dark inside. "It had taking me some time to find and bring these here. I believe that these may prove useful when the proper time to use these in battle," Kitsune said as he made a motion to snap his fingers with his left hand. The moment of the snapping fingers was heard, the light came on to show what was covered in the darkness from before. It had taken a moment for the five eyes to adjust to the light coming on and when they could see properly, they were shocked by what they now saw in front of them. There were some Knightmare frames in front of them, but these were not just any frame. These were the Guren S.E.I.T.A.N. Eight Element, Shinkiro, Vincent, and the Sutherland Sieg with the core Sutherland unit for it. This was as redevelop frame by the Black Knight from the Britannia's Kight Giga Fortress Siegfried that was piloted by V.V. when Lelouch led an attack against the Geass Order hidden base in China.

"When I go to get Li Xingke, I will bring his Shen Hu here. I believe it would be such a waste to not bring these along for the fights. I don't think yall should use this right away. It would be best to save these as a trump card. This will also allow Rakahata some time to either study the tech on both the Guren and Vincent or maybe even improve on them to give the Britannia some real trouble," Kitsune said with a smile. Kallen could not help but think that once she can improve her skill with the new Guren, she will bring the hurt to Suzaku in battle. Lelouch had to agree with Kitsune on not using these to soon when they back to the past and to make sure they decide bith when and where to use them. Lelouch also best that if maybe best to get their hands on any other Knightmare frames that they can. "Now that this is out of the way. Let get today training underway," Kitsune said as the others nodded their heads. Soon the six left the hanger as the lights went off to cover the frames in darkness once again.

Code Geass: Back to The Past for a New Future

Chapter 6: Final Preparations and Eve of the Battle

After they left the fourth hanger that was storing the Knightmare fames, it was back to training. Kallen had partnered up with Lelouch as training partners. This had both C.C. and Kitsune making a few jokes that caused the two to blush. All of them trained through the day just like the day before. The training continued like this for the week. The most notable thing was that Lelouch was getting better with the exercises. At the beginning of training on day one, he was out of breath within ten seconds, but now he was able to keep going before he needed to catch his breath.

Another difference was when both Kallen and Lelouch trained in hand-to-hand fighting. When the two were sparring, they would go for pinning the other to the floor mat. Kallen was pretty much the one that pin Lelouch to the ground, but after the week had almost passed, Kallen really had to put more in pinning Lelouch down. It seemed like Lelouch's body was not only becoming a better fit for a person of his age but also his stamina was also getting better as well.

Soon the week has passed and Kitsune had left to take care of some business for a while. As for the others, they were taking it easy on what it would be considered their rest day. Jeremiah and Sayoko were once again sparring against each other. As the first week had pass, these two would spar each day and there was still no victor in these spars. If anyone was to look careful at their faces, one would see that they had smile. This was not any ordinary smile that they had. This was a smile of the thrill of a challenge before them. The challenge that forced one to overcome their limits and push one's body and skill as well. Kallen, Lelouch, and C.C. were sure that there was something between these two, but they were not sure what it was.

As for the remaining three were doing, Kallen and Lelouch used the Knightmare simulators to fight as a together as a team or even against each other in one-on-one matches. Kallen and Lelouch did very well in the team matched. As for when they face against each, Kallen had the most wins, but Lelouch had made her work hard for those wins. Kallen and Lelouch were enjoying they time together. As for C.C., she was eating some pizza which to no one surprised.

As the evening drew near, they had decided to head back to the first hanger after they got clean for the night. It was about 30 minutes later that Kitsune had returned with an extra person in tow. The was none other than the former Ashford Academy Student President Milly Ashford. To see that she was now here was a shock t0 at least two certain people. "What are you doing here President," Lelouch asked in a forced of habit. "It there some sort of problem with me being here Lulu," Milly replied back with the same nickname that Shirley called him by. Jeremiah held back his laugh at the nickname for Lelouch. Kallen and Sayoko let out a small giggle. C.C. had a cat like grin on her face.

As for Lelouch, he just looked at Milly with a serious look, but deep down Lelouch secretly hated that nickname. It made it sound like he was a girl and not a guy when a girl called him that. "I bought her here so she can get some training in before the going back into the past," Kitsune said as he had a small grin. Everyone nodded their heads in agreement. "I have already given Kaguya some training instructions for her to follow. As for both Rakahata and Li Xinge their training will not be happening for a time. Rakahata is trying to get as much of the Black Knight's project that she was involved in copied. I will have her here to get a bit of training in before the trip to the past. As for Li Xinge, he had told me that he has some things to take care of," Kitsune informed them with a serious tone in his voice.

"I was taking care of some business on my part during the week. I was able to locate the Ashford Knightmare building factory that has not been in uses since Britannia took over Japan years ago," Milly said that got everyone attention. "There are somethings that we are going to need. The first will be resources for building the Knightmares that can easily be helped by both Jeremiah and Kaguya. The second will be a Knightmare engineer/designer which can be covered by Rakahata. The are some other things that need to be covered but it is not too important. The most important objective that is crucial is funding," Milly informed them about. "That would be bit of an issue would it," Kitsune said as he moved his right hand to chin in a thinking form.

"If is getting the money for funding, then I can probably get it from gambling that I did," Lelouch replied. "That could work, but only problem that I see with that is that after a while word will spread and that can make it harder as time goes on," Kitsune said and Lelouch nodded his head in agreement. After about five minutes of quiet thinking, Kallen asked, "Why don't we try to get as much money now, if possible, that way we can bring it with us in the past?" Everyone looked to Kallen and Kitsune replied, "That could work. Maybe yall can somehow take control of a few businesses in the past that way it can generate an income." "I can probably do some research later to see what businesses make a big profit from the last two years to give us a starting point to work from," Milly said as this seems like this could work out with their goals.

"I believe that we will have to change a bit of our training plan. I can transport us to random casino in both Japan and Britannia Empire. This will allow some of us to win as much as we can," Kitsune said. "Don't we have to worry about someone discovering who are by chance," Kallen asked. "That should be no problem if we used disguises and change it as we head to different casino," Kitsune answered with a grin. Soon they are in agreement in with the now proposed plan that was now giving.

As the night came, all of them except Kitsune had change into their sleep wear and headed off to bed. Milly had a grin on her face as she saw both Kallen and Lelouch get into the same bed. Milly was soon told by Sayoko about the night that Lelouch had a terrible nightmare and Kallen being with him was probably the best solution to help him. No one know that Kallen and Lelouch had already dealt with that problem. The two of them had secretly agree to not tell them for a while.

As for Kitsune, he had different plans for the night. His first stop was to the hanger with the showers. Once he was clean, he put on a pair of black jean pants with black belt. Followed by that was a long sleeve black shirt and a pair fingerless tip glove. He was also wearing his watch on his left wrist, a black mask that covered the lower part of his face, and also some tech looking googles over his eyes. The last thing that he put on were a pair of black sneakers shoes that strangely did not make a single sound when he walk. Kitsune let out a small chuckle as he walked. Then he grabbed a black backpack that was nearby and put it on.

Kitsune had decided to not wear his gauntlet for what he was about to do. He had pull out a different chain necklace that he did not wear. On this necklace had an oval shape pendent hanging from this. Kitsune put the necklace around his neck and then pull out the Space Stone. He had placed the stone in the in the pendent and then moved the pendent holding the stone inside his shirt that no one would see it. Kitsune took a deep breath and said with a grin, "Time to have some fun." A portal opened up and Kitsune entered it.

Where Kitsune is now

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Kitsune was soon on top of a building and looking across the rooftop at his destination target for the night. His target was the Britannia royal family government building. This building had the latest security systems that had been made. In the Britiannan Empire, no one was stupid enough to try and break in to steal whatever items that were stored here. Kitsune looked the building over and said with a grin under his mask, "This doesn't look too hard now. In a matter of fact this is going to be fun." Kitsune reached into his backpack pulled out a strange device that he placed on his right forearm. Kitsune took a few steps back and then took out running to the edge of the building. As he reached the edge, Kitsune jumped right at the edge with his right arm pointed in front of him.

The next day back on Miyake Island

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Morning soon came and everyone was soon awake and dress for their training for the day. Everyone headed to the table outside to get some breakfast before they started their training. They saw Kitsune sitting in one of the chairs. He was wearing blue jean pants and regular white t shirt. Kitsune was reading a book as he was eating. Everyone saw his gauntlet was on the table in front of him. They also took noticed that Kitsune had a smile on his face that showed that something good had happen for him. "Why are you so happy," Lelouch asked the question that was on everyone's mind. "I went somewhere last night and ended up having a bit of fun. Just for the record it was not that type of fun, so get yall mind out of that garbage," Kitsune replied as he looked up from his book.

After the answer that Kitsune gave, everyone quickly grabs a plate of breakfast and proceed to sit down so they can eat. "Here is what the plan for the week is going to be. We will start with the usual stretches that will follow with exercises for a few hours. Then will do some hand-to-hand combat training for a bit. I think it will be best to get some firearms training in to see who which gun that suits them. By time evening comes, some of us will set off to the casinos to get some extra cash," Kitsune informed them of the plans for the day. Everyone agreed to the plan for the week that Kitsune had told them. As they eating their breakfast, an idea came to Kallen thoughts, and she would have to Kitsune to see if it was possible.

After breakfast, everyone had started on their stretches and exercises. Milly was surprised that Lelouch was not out of breath while they were exercising. She could not but noticed that Lelouch had a bit of muscles forming on his arms. "How long have all of you have been training, Kallen," Milly asked as looked towards Kallen. Kallen back to Milly and replied, "Just a week. Why?" "I just noticed Lelouch's arms and seen muscles had now has on them," Milly answered and Kallen had look to see what Milly was talking about. Kallen saw the muscles that Milly had mention. Both of the girls thought it was strange that Lelouch has already having muscles forming with just a week of training.

Kallen began to wonder what other muscles that Lelouch had and then blush red when she realized what she just thought. Milly noticed the red on Kallen's face and she already figured what was on Kallen's mind. Milly was so going to enjoy messing with Kallen over this. Once their exercises were done, they went to get a quick bite to eat. They were able to recover the energy that was used in their exercises earlier as they ate. After they finished eating, they headed over to the hanger for their hand-to-hand combat training. They were paired off with partners for one-on-one spar. The pairing was Kallen vs Jeremiah, C.C. vs Milly, Lelouch vs Sayoko.

As Kallen and Jeremiah spar, Jeremiah used his military training to fight and Kallen used her fighting skills that learn just a week ago. Jeremiah more than once was put on the defensive with Kallen. Jeremiah could easier tell at how skill Kallen is as both a fighter and a pilot. He believed that Kallen would be a match for any of the Britannia's Knight of Round if given more training to hone her Knightmare piloting skills. Jeremiah believed that his Lord Lelouch has chosen the right person to be his future wife if the signs that he had seen showed that the two have feeling towards each other. Jeremiah swore that he would help bring Kallen's skills to its fullest potential.

As for the spar with C.C. and Milly, it was quite a shock to see at how skill a hand-to-hand fighter that Milly was. She later revealed that as she was growing up, she had learned some self-defense moves and some fighting techniques through the years. Milly was just about able to match move for move with C.C.'s knowledge of fighting that she learn in her long life she has. With the spar for Lelouch and Sayoko, Sayoko was having a bit of problem in her match with Lelouch. She was master of her martial arts skills along with her athletic talents that matched her skills and Lelouch was able to keep up with her. Sayoko knew that Lelouch was very smart, but also knew that his body was in no way strong. Now it seemed like his body was able to keep up in this spar. Sayoko fought back a shivered that ran down her spine at the thought if she was somehow had to fight Lelouch if was able to get his body to match the way that he thinks. If one was able to have both their mind and body fight in a certain way, then that person would be almost considered to be a kind of monster.

The spars came to an end and Kitsune had them follow him to the fifth hanger. Once they entered the hanger, they saw a bunch of different guns that were set up on one table and bullets on the other table. There was also a third table that had nothing on it. They also took noticed that there were some targets that were set up towards the back hanger that was at a distance from the tables. They figure that this was probably done to make sure that no bullets would fly back at them from a bad angle shot. The targets that were set up looked like people with X shape for eyes and frown for a mouth done in chalk. There was a crudely drawn aiming zone on what would consider the body.

"Here we are in what I called the Shooting Hanger. I was able to get ahold of a bunch of different guns," Kitsune said as he gestures to the table with the guns. "As I said before we will see what gun would feel better to yall and then we will improve yall skills with it," Kitsune finished saying. "Are you any good with them Kitsune," Sayoko asked as this had everyone looking toward Kitsune. Kitsune said with a grin, "Sure am. I will admit it took me some time, but I managed to get my skills with guns to what would be considered to be scary to people." "Can you give us a demonstration," Milly asked as she was curious at how skilled he was. Kitsune through for a moment and replied, "Sure. Let me grab a few guns and some clips." Kitsune headed over to the gun table and began to pick out some guns.

After getting what guns he wanted, he had placed them on the empty table and went to get what bullets he needed. While he was getting the bullets, the others looked to see what guns that he picked up. They saw an unmodified Glock 17, a Smith & Wesson SW1911 E-Series, an MK 18 Mod 1 that was fitted with a Troy PDW stock along with a canted back up iron sights and an EOTech XPS sight. There was also a Chiappa Rhino 60DS, AR-15, and a M4A1 Carbine. They were shocked by the six guns that Kitsune had picked. It did not take long for Kitsune to come back to the table with bunch of different magazines for the gun and a few bullets that went for the Chiappa Rhino. Kitsune took a bit of time to set the guns with the magazines in place on the table. Kitsune had grab two magazines for each gun excepted for the Chippa Rhino, which he loaded the gun with four bullets. Kitsune proceed to change his glasses that he wore with what looked to be safely googles and some earplugs in his ears. The others went ahead and put the safety googles and earplugs on.

The first gun that Kitsune grabbed was the Smith & Wesson SW1911 E-Series and loaded a magazine. Just as the magazine was locked into place, Kitsune quickly pointed the gun at the target and began firing the gun. Lelouch and the others were shocked that Kitsune did not take the time to aim his gun. Kitsune shoot a few bullets at one target and then quickly moved to another. Kitsune repeated this progress until the magazine was empty. Kitsune quickly ejected the now empty magazine from the gun and quickly loaded the next magazine. Once the new magazine was load, Kitsune went back to shoot without missing a beat. Kitsune had only been shooting at only four targets.

As this was happening, it was then Jeremiah took noticed that Kitsune had been shooting in the same spot on all four targets. Jeremiah saw that Kitsune kept shooting right at where a person forehead would be located at. As soon as Kitsune finished the second magazine for the Smith & Wesson, Jeremiah made a motion to the others to look at the four target and to watch very carefully. Kitsune placed the Smith & Wesson back on the table and reached for a new gun. Kitsune had decided to use the Glock 17 as his next choice. Kitsune quickly load the magazine into the gun and began firing just like before. Everyone soon noticed that Kitsune was shooting at the same spot and their jaws almost dropped to the floor.

Once the Glock 17 was done, Kitsune grabbed the Chippa Rhino and fired the four shots right where he was hitting the target. Kitsune proceed to go for the MK 18 after the Chippa Rhino. Kitsune was rapid firing with the MK 18 on all four targets. Once the first magazine was emptied, Kitsune load the second the magazine and began firing again, but this time he used the second sight on the gun by rationing slightly clockwise. By the time the second magazine was empty, the targets forehead was now an orange circle. This was proof that Kitsune had shot completely threw the metal target. Kitsune started to shoot with the AR-15 and was now shooting right where the heart would be at now. Finally, Kitsune began to shoot with the M4A1 Carbine, which was the last gun that he had chosen.

Soon Kitsune was finished shooting the last gun and had once again shot completely threw the metal just like before. Kitsune place the Carbine on the table and turn to look at the others. Kitsune could not help but let a smirk appeared on his face at how speechless they all looked. As Lelouch and the others looked at both Kitsune and the targets that he shot at, they knew right then and there that there no way any of them would not be able to match that type of skill in their life ever. "Now that is over, how about yall get started while we have daylight left to burn," Kitsune said as he still had a smirk on his face. Everyone nodded their heads and proceeded to head over to the gun table.

Lelouch and Milly had found that pistol type guns felt right for them. Kallen preferred guns that had a bit of rapid fire. Jeremiah was pretty good with any type of gun because of his training in the military. Sayoko preferred to use her kunai knives over guns. C.C. was good with any gun types, and she did not have a preference on what she used. Kitsune had helped them with trick skills that he knew to help them to have an edge in a firefight. This training lasted about three hours before Kitsune had them head to the third hanger to get a shower for the evening. Kitsune had informed them that there were some wigs, different contract lens, make up, and clothing for those that want to head for the casinos tonight.

Once their showers were over, they got changed into some disguise for the night. Lelouch was wearing a blond wig, had blue eyes, and was wearing a rich nobleman outfit. Kallen was now sporting a long black hair, brown eyes, and a noblewoman dress. C.C. was now different with her hair bring long dark orange in a single ponytail, light blue eyes, and a very nice evening dress that was a nice shade of purple. Jeremiah had a dark blue hair and was wearing a simple tuxedo. Kitsune gave Jeremiah a face changing mask that would allow Jeremiah to hide the left side of his face and make him look normal. Kitsune black hair was now a dark brown in color and his eyes were still green behind his glasses that he wore. As for the outfit that Kitsune wore, it was black tuxedo that had a mix of red in it. Both Milly and Sayoko decide to not go and stay at the base.

Kitsune had transported those that were going to a casino in the Britannain Empire. Once they got there, Kitsune handed them a good amount of betting money for them to used. Kitsune also gave Lelouch a Bank account number along with the routing number that he set up to have any big money bets that he won to be transfer to. Lelouch and Kallen headed for where some nobles would place chess at. Jeremiah went to gamble in a spot that was close by to where Lelouch and Kallen would be at in case an emergency would happen. Kitsune and C.C. headed toward the blackjack and poker games would be.

Lelouch had ended playing against a bunch of nobles and had beat each one of them with the bets being as high as he could make it be. Kallen did not do any gambling. She had decided to stick by Lelouch's side as she kept watched for any threats. Kallen would occasionally kiss Lelouch before the beginning of each match as a sort of good luck kiss. Jeremiah was making quite a bit of money on a few games. As for Kitsune and C.C., they were having a bit of fun. C.C. had ended up doing the same thing as Kallen in not gambling. Kitsune was making quite the killing in his gambling. Kitsune had joined a few different poker and blackjack games. Kitsune had secretly used his Time Sight ability to cheat at these card games. Kitsune knew using his ability was wrong, but he knew that the some of the players were also cheating as well.

Kitsune made sure to not draw any major attention to him by losing a few times. Once it reached a point that all of them were done, they had decided to cash out for the night. All five of them made sure to leave separate and head for a spot to meet up at. Once all five of them met up, Kitsune had transported them back to the base. With their first night at the casino over, Kitsune, Jeremiah, and Lelouch had brought in quite a haul in their winning. Kitsune informed the others that he would take care of the money and make sure it was safe for the time being. Lelouch and the others had decided to turn in for the night so they can be well rested for tomorrow's training.

Kallen had whisper something to Kitsune to make sure that no one overheard he. Kitsune had answered Kallen that he would see what he could do. Kallen nodded her head and headed off to the bedroom. Kitsune had put the money that both him and Jeremiah won in a briefcase and open a portal as he entered it to it attended destination. Once the others had settled in for the night, Kallen could not help but she as slept next to Lelouch, she was able to feel some of the muscles that Lelouch now had. Kallen was glad that the room was dark so no one would see how red her face was now.

After a few weeks had passed at Miyake Island

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

It had been a few weeks since that first night of going to the casino. Lelouch and the others had made off with lots of money from all the different casino that Kitsune had brought them to. As they went to the casinos, sometimes a few of them went or all of them at times. C.C. had ended gambling a few times and won, but her winnings that she earn were going to be for her uses only. It did not take a rocket scientist to figure out what C.C. was going to use that money for. Kitsune made sure that all of them had kept up with their training. Kitsune had Lelouch try to see if he can still use his Geass still work as they were at the casino. Lelouch's Geass was working properly and there were no side effects to his eyes and Lelouch did not have to wear the protective contract lens to conceal his Geass like before. Back on Miyake Island, the results of training were better than all of them hoped for.

Lelouch had improve in hand-to-hand combat fighting, gun skill, and Knightmare piloting. Lelouch skills at piloting was no way near the levels of Kallen, but he would be able to fight better than he did before. Lelouch's body went through a sort of change during the few weeks of training. His body now had muscles which no one would think it was possible if they knew how Lelouch was before. Lelouch was in no way in a bulky form, but it was instead more of a lean athlete style. Both Kallen and Milly were not complaining which what they were looking at from time to time.

For Kallen's training, her skills in hand-to-hand combat, gun skills, and piloting were much higher now then she never thought it would be before. Kallen had crush the Knighmare simulator pods. Kitsune had reveal to Kallen that those simulators were fixed to push person as hard as they could handle. Everyone one was truly surprised at the improvement that Kallen had shown in her training. As for the others, they training had proven their result as well.

About two weeks ago Kitsune had retrieved Rakahata and brought her to the Miyake base. Luckily Rakahata was able to give a believable excuse to Ohgi for a leave of absence for about two weeks. It took some time, but Rakahata was able to copy all the information of all the work that she did and was going to do for the Black Knights onto a bunch of hard drives. Kitsune had informed her that he would be able to send those drives with her to the past. Rakahata did inform all of them that Prince Schneizel was able to use the recording of what Kitsune did back in Shinjuku with the opening his portal with the help from Lloyd to create a device that would be able to track the energy signature that came off the portals. From what she lasted heard, the device was detecting the portals that Kitsune made, but because he kept make a few portals at a time, it made it had to pin down where they were at for the time.

The moment that Kitsune heard this, he knew that this could speel trouble for them. Kitsune knew that had to make some perparations of his own. For the two weeks since Rakahata got there, her time was not wasted for a moment. She was either studying the device of the Geass Canceller that Jeremiah had or the data from the simulators. Kitsune was able to provide few data information that he got his hands on either past or current ace pilots of Britannia. Rakahata was watering at the mouth with how busy she was, and she was enjoying it. Rakahata was jumping for joy and gave Kitsune a hug when she saw the Knightmare frames that in the fourth hanger.

Kitsune and Rakahata had discuss on a location for him to send the Knightmare frames in the past for her to get at a safe place. Kitsune also informed her that he was going to provide a few things that he sends for her that she will get a kick out of when she was working on the Knightmares. Thiis had Rakahata curious about what Kitsune was going to give her, but she decided to not bug him with it. She after all had other things to take care of at the moment. Kitsune had Rakahata use a bit of her medical knowledge that she used for her medical cybernetics research to get blood samples of everyone but him that were present on Miyake.

The reason being is that Kitsune was still trying to figure out what secrets about Kallen that were hidden for all of them at this time. He figured that maybe her blood could shed a bit on it, but he would leave that for Rakahata to look into when she had the time to do so. In the final week of training, Kitsune had brought both Kaguya and Li Xingke to Miyake along with the Shen Hu. Kitsune knew that with the device that the prince of a snake had it would not take long until this location was no longer safe. Kitsune figured he would have to use a good amount of power with the Infinity Stone to send them into the past and when he does all the forces under Schneizel would probably be here in just about no time.

Everyone had gathered in the first hanger for the night for the last dinner before their trip to the past by Kitsune. As they finished eating, Kitsune had gotten their attention. "I know all of yall want to get as much as rest as yall can before tomorrow, but I was able to under cover some information that my prove to be a bit of trouble for yall at some point," Kitsune said with a serious tone in his voice. Everyone had turned and listen closely to what Kitsune going to say. "Lelouch are you familiar with a man by the name of Bismarck Waldstein," Kitsune asked. "I know that he is the personal knight chosen by my father to protect him. He is also the Knight of One and the best Knightmare pilot in the world from Britannia. I know that there was only one that beat him and that was my mother who used the Knightmare frame Ganymede. It was because of this that my mother was chosen to be the Knight of Six before she married my father," Lelouch answered for all to hear in case that no one here at the table did not know.

"That is correct. There is one thing that no one knows about, but a select few. As yall might have seen a picture of him by chance. As yall seen that his left eye is sewn shut. Don't any of yall find this a bit strange if you think about it," Kitsune replied and seen that all of them were now thinking about what he just said. All except for C.C. because she already knew the truth. Then it hit Lelouch, as he realized now, and he was now he was shaking a bit with fear at what he thought. Kallen saw this and grabbed his hand in concern. "Don't tell us. That man has a Geass," Lelouch asked as he was hoping he was wrong. The moment that Lelouch had said Geass, everyone was now frozen. "I am afraid so," Kitsune answered. Everyone did not move or a sound. "What is his Geass," Li Xingke asked as he broke the silence with his question. This question was important, and everyone here knew it.

"His Geass allows hit to see a few seconds into the future. This will allow him to even the odds in his fights," C.C. was the one who answered. Everyone now turned to C.C. as she had more to say on this subject. "From what I all know about Bismarck and his Geass is this. First his Geass is in it permanent state in his left eye. The second is that the only person to beat his while he used his Geass was none of then Marianna herself. Other than with this limited information that I have, I do know he has never used on rely on it as much through the years," C.C. finished saying. Everyone let the information that was reveal to them set in their minds for a bit.

"How are we to beat a man like this. I mean without his Geass he is the strongest pilot in the world and if by chance he decides to use his Geass than he would be on a whole different level for anyone that was to fight him," Milly pointed as she talked. "The only option that I know right now is the Geass Canceller that Jeremiah has. If we were to use that, then that would give us a chance to defeat him with the best fighters that we have," Li Xingke said as he remembers when he fought Bismarck during the Second Battle of Toyko. Li Xingke knew at how strong Bismarck is in his personal Knightmare frame Galahad. "There is another way if it is done right," Lelouch said as he drew everyone's attention.

"The way his Geass works is it allow him to see a few second while he is fighting, but what would happen if there was a smokescreen of some kind was to appear. This would cause him to be unable to either attack or defend for just a moment for us to bring him down," Lelouch said, and everyone was seeing with Lelouch was saying. "There is a small problem that I see. What would happen if it was just one pilot that was fighting him inside a zero-visibility environment, then what," Kitsune answered. "If that was to happen, then I believe the best pilot on our side was fighting him in that would have no problem beating him. But only if their skill in piloting a frame was on higher level then Bismarck," Lelouch replied.

Lelouch believe that there is one person that he knew could do that and he was taking a side look glance at her. In Lelouch's mind, he was split on this. On one side he truly believes that his Crimson Queen could beat Bismarck when the time came. But the other side he was afraid on the off chance that Bismarck could kill Kallen. Lelouch knew deep down that there was no way that Kallen would sit by and not fight. That was not the person that Kallen was. The only thing in Lelouch's mind could do was put all of his hope in his Queen would prevail when that time came. Back to outside of Lelouch's mind, everyone had to agree with the answered that Lelouch said. They knew that with the information that they have now will give them some time to prepare for that battle that they knew would happen.

Kallen noticed the glance that Lelouch had when he looks to her. Kallen knew right away at what Lelouch was pretty much saying and this made her heart soar. Kallen knew deep down that she was going to training herself to the limited, so she proves that the faith that Lelouch had in her were correct. Rakahata had made some process in studying the Geass Canceller and had a good amount of data on it. She knew once she had made a perfect version of the Geass Canceller that could be install on the any of her Knightmare frame children, that would be quite the accomplishment.

The time for everyone to get some shut eye for the night was coming. Everyone beside Kitsune headed off for the bed. Kallen told Lelouch she would join him after she talk with a Kitsune about something that was on her mind. Kallen followed Kitsune outside the hanger. Kitsune had stepped out to take in the clam night air to help his mind a bit. "What is on your mind Kallen," Kitsune asked as he looked at the moon. "I know you said at one point you said that you had seen multiple timelines. I have to know what the outcome was," Kallen replied. Kitsune looked towards Kallen. Kitsune closed his eyes and took a deep breath in then released it. Kitsune opened his eyes and asked, "Are you sure? If I tell you this, then might scare you once you know." Kallen gave a determine look in her eyes and nodded her head.

"If Lelouch's Geass was not damage like they were, then things would have stayed the same way it always ended. Lelouch would use his Geass to become the 99th Emperor of Britannia with Suzaku being called the Knight of Zero. Schneizel revealing his weapon the Damocles armed with FLEIJA along with the Black Knight on his side. Schneizel would use the Damocles to force the world in peace with threat of death of the FLEIJA. Lelouch and Schneizel would fight with Lelouch coming out on top. The Black Knights in chains ready to be killed," Kitsune said as Kallen listening. Kallen's heart was beating in fear with what she was now hearing, but she was determined to hear all of it. "During the battle between Lelouch and Schneizel, it was believed that Suzaku was killed, but me managed to survive. Later at a parade for Lelouch's victory, Suzaku would show up dress as Zero and would then kill Lelouch in front of everyone one," Kitsune finished telling.

"Why would Suzaku kill Lelouch," Kallen asked as she needed to know. "This was all a part of plan that Lelouch had created. This plan he made would be known in secret as the Zero Requiem. The plan was for Lelouch to be seen as a tyrant Emperor even more then his father to the world. With Lelouch's death, someone would take the throne. This would cause the world to be push on the path of peace. As for Suzaku killing Lelouch, Lelouch had promise Suzaku that he would let him be killed by his hand to get back as a sort of revenge for when Lelouch had killed Euphemia. This was done before the battle with Schneizel, because he had forced Lelouch's hand by playing on Lelouch biggest weakest," Kitsune replied.

Kallen had to think on this for a moment to figure out what Lelouch's weakest is and then it hit her. "You don't mean to say," Kallen asked and Kitsune answered, "Yes." "Then this means that the whole time that," Kallen was said before interrupted by Kitsune replying, "Yes again." "Then why did you not go and," Kallen started to ask, but was stopped when Kitsune said, "That would be hard because of how Schneizel is and with that silver tongue of that snake would make thing worst if possible." "Don't you believe that Lelouch should know about this," Kallen asked as she knew that Lelouch should have a right to know. "At this point the answer would be no. But I do think if yall can change the outcome with this plan to go back to fix everything, then you should tell him when everything is done. It is best that Lelouch focus on what is ahead of him now. When you do tell him, let him know that I am the one to blame for not sharing this info with him," Kitsune answered.

Kallen did not feel that this was a good call to make in not telling Lelouch. Kallen could only hope that Lelouch would not be angry with her once she tells him. "You should get to bed and get some rest. Yall have a big trip to get ready for tomorrow," Kitsune said, and he motioned towards the hanger that they came out of. Kallen nodded her head and headed off to bed where the others were sleeping at. Once Kitsune saw Kallen entered the hanger, he turned back to look at the night sky for a while.

"For the night is clam and peaceful to those who sleep this very night not knowing of what the night can bring to those. For the day to come that follows after the night, they know not what comes with the new day as they are awake for. Will the new day be filled peace. Will the day be a challenge for those who look toward it. The day in people lives is filled with both good and bad times. For those that see the day and night it could be a sign as both life and death. For the way to see life and death can be easy, but doing is hard. It can be hard to live the life a person has can be the hardest part one could take, and death seems to be like the easiest path that one could take, but they know not of what they can missed if one looks away from the path they started on from the beginning," Kitsune said to no one around him in the clam night. Kitsune shook his head and said, "I can't see how some people can make things that they say not sound so cheesy. I know not to quit my day job to do things like that." With that Kitsune headed towards the sixth hanger.

The Next Day at Miyake Island

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

The next day came, and everyone was up. Kitsune had everyone outside the hanger. "Okay yall this is how this is going to happen. First, I am going to find yall past selves and make sure that yall are alone that way no one will see anything on the off chance some noticeable changes were to happen. Second, I am going to send all of yall back at the same time and I am hoping to do this as yall past selves are sleeping by chance. Third, with yall in the past I will be able to send all of yall stuff to the selected location that yall picked out to be collected. I am aiming for a least for about three to four months before the battle at Shinjuku. Once yall are in the past, all that I ask of all of yall is make sure that aim for a better future for everyone," Kitsune said, and everyone nodded their heads. "Will we ever see you again," Sayoko asked as they come to somewhat know Kitsune to be considered a friend to all of them.

Kitsune looked at them with a grin and replied, "Who knows? Only time would tell from what I know." Everyone could not help but chuckle at what Kitsune had said about time. "Let's get started shall we," Kitsune said as he got his gauntlet ready with the five Infinity Stone in place. Kitsune had a focus look in his eyes as everyone noticed that his right eye was glowing a bit brighter shade of green. It was not long until Kitsune moved his right arm out straight in front of him and the stones were glowing. All of them took noticed that just about an inch or two from his fingers that strange symbols in green started to form. Kallen was the only one out of all of them to see this happen. IT was then that more symbols were started to form in the air flat as if there was a wall in front of Kitsune. Some different symbols started to appear around the gauntlet as well. Then there were new symbols appearing, but the symbols were completely different than the ones that already appeared and these were blue in color.

The blue symbols were overlapping the green symbols. What no one knew was that all the symbols were all of Kitsune doing. All the symbols were only known that those symbols were mystic language of space and time. Kitsune was locking in the target points of everyone's past selves. Kitsune was making sure that the connection was solid. This is what the symbols for space was for. For the symbols of time is the first thing that Kitsune had to first setup. He had to make sure that the month, day, year, and time for everyone's past selves were correctly done. It was then that some purple was starting form around the symbols as outlines. It one was to look at Kitsune carefully, they would notice that he has sweat going down his face and his right eye was glowing even more. Kitsune was determined to see that this time travel would not fail in any way. Kitsune grit his teeth hard as he pushed on even harder.

It was too long when both yellow and red stared to form as outlines just like the purple. It was then that the portals that Kitsune used had appeared, but this time there were multiples portal that formed. The portals had formed in front of them. Everyone looked at the portal that was front of them and saw that was a green swirl inside the portal along with a bit of yellow and red. Around the outside the portal was purple on the outside edge. "Everything is all set. Go through the portal in front of yall now," Kitsune said. Everyone looked at the portal in front of them with determination on their face. Then all of them entered the portal as they were being transported through space and time and toward their destination.

Kitsune had closed the portals the moment that he saw with his Time Sight that each one of them had successively arrived back in the past. Kitsune saw that their past selves' bodies had changed to what they look liked when they were just with him a few minutes ago. One the symbols that were still in front of Kitsune the only changes to it that happen was that both the colors of red and yellow were no longer in the mixed. "Now for my final part to help them out from this point in time," Kitsune said. In the fifth hanger, it was here that the Knightmare frames that Kitsune had retrieved had one huge blue portal with a green swirl with purple outline on the outside of the portal formed right under the frames. The frames suddenly dropped as the floor was no longer there. There were also some boxes that were place next to the frame fell in the portals as. These boxes were some of the data that Rakahata had with her along with some special gifts that Kitsune want Rakahata to have. He figured that she would make good use of what he gave her.

Once the frames and boxes were no longer there. Kitsune had moved to the other boxes that were also stack in the same hanger as well. These boxes were things that belong to Lelouch, Kallen, Milly, C.C., Kaguya, and Jeremiah. Kitsune was transporting these items to the hidden basement room right under Ashford Academy that only Milly and her grandfather had access to. This way was to make sure that no one would mess with them and were kept safe. With the last of the stuff that were now in the past, the portal in the fifth hanger had disappeared.

Back with Kitsune, he had stopped with what he was doing as the glowing of the stones were slowly stopping their glowing. As this was happening, the mystic language of space and time were starting to fade away as well. Once the symbols were gone and the stone were no longer glowing, Kitsune dropped to his knees with his hands being the only support to keep his body from laying on the ground. Kitsune was extremely tried as he was trying to get his breathing under control. It was a few minutes before Kitsune was breathing normal once again. Kitsune had taken a handkerchief out of his pocket with his left hand to wrap the good amount of sweat from his face and neck.

Once Kitsune was able to regain his strength, he got up and headed over to the sixth hanger. It was at this hanger that Kitsune had a small cooler set up with some drinks and food for him to relax a bit. After all he had to be ready for the storm that would be coming. As he walked towards the hanger, if there was a person that was watching him walk, they would be jaw dropped by what they just saw. For as Kitsune walked, a person that was wearing a white robe with a white that cover the person's head leaving only the mouth exposed. This person was facing the opposite direction of where Kitsune was headed. Kitsune stopped walking and said, "It has been quite some time since we last talk haven't it." "Yes, it has Kitsune," the person had replied with their voice sounding that of a woman. "To what do I own this surprised meeting with you Caretaker of Spacetime," Kitsune asked as he turned around with a warm smile on his face.

"I just wanted to ask you this. Why did lie to them about that stuff of Watcher, when you know that you and the others are more than that," the Caretaker replied with a smile on her face, as she too turned to face Kitsune, even though the hood covered her eyes. Kitsune gave a grin and answered back, "What would be the point in telling them that truth of beings known as Time Lords, and I just so happened to be a Time Warrior Agent." The Caretaker had a gentle smile on her face and replied, "I guess you are right. But do remember that you are not just a Time Warrior. You are the one the few best Time Warriors that the Time Lords had found and trained. You are probably the only Time Warrior Agent to even able to use the master control gauntlet that even the Time Lords have had a hard time using." "I know. I you will excuse me I am in need of a break and time to ready myself for what is to come," Kitsune said. "Very Well. I will return back to C's World for safely. But before I go make sure you visit the Time Lords from time to time. They do miss you company," the Caretaker said as she vanished without a trace.

Kitsune took a moment to think about the Time Lords from his memories. A man wearing a lab coat, a man dressed in a steampunk fashion with robot type hands, a British dress man that was standing next to a blue phone booth box, a huge robot that was made with old gears, one that may find in an antique clock, with a sword, a being that floated like a ghost that form was changing into a child, man, and old man, another person that looked to be human with brown hair that was holding what looked to be a like a human size key like a sword, the was another human with sliver color hair wearing a blue jacket with a logo of some kind on the left sleeve and a sword on his back, there was a third person like human wearing a strange suit as he sat in a chair in his fingers interlock in front of him, and the last was a man wearing robes with on his horns that gave on the impression on a tuning fork at first look and he had a staff that had a sand hourglass on the top of it.

Kitsune had a happy smile on his face as he thought about his teachers. After a moment, Kitsune turned around and continued walking towards the hanger. Kitsune really needed a break from the work he did to help get Lelouch and the others back to the past. As Kitsune entered the hanger, he closed the door behind him and thought with a grin, 'It won't be long until I get to have some real fun now.'

On board The Newly Created Damocles

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Prince Schneizel and his party were on the bridge of the Damocles when Lloyd came in a rush. From the look on his face, it seems that he had some news to share. "Prince Schneizel, my device had just detected a huge amount of energy that was coming from a small island south of Area 11. I believe that may be where the person named Kitsune is hiding at," Lloyd said. "That is great news. Kanon, have our forces that are in Area 11 head to that Island and also inform any of the Knights of Round that are available to head there as well. We will also have the Damocles head there too," Schneizel order and his aid Kanon did what was asked.

Prince Schneizel is the second prince, the second in the line for the throne, and the Prime Minister of Britannia. The character of Prince Schneizel could be described as as charm, very well like, and intelligent for strategy. He is man that can rally people behind him with just mere words. The true is behind that mask that people see is that he in nothing more than a scheming snake. When he fought in battle, it was only when there was no chance of him losing. It is thanks to him on improving his silver tongue when he talks that allow him to turn the Black Knight against his brother Lelouch who was the true man that was Zero. Schneizel had figure out who Zero was since that chess match in China.

After the battle of Toyko that happened a month ago, Schneizel was able to trick the Black Knights with a bit for forge evidence he had cause a bit of a shake up in the faith they had in Zero. It was only thanks to his sister Cornelia and the woman known as Villetta, who was the lover of Ohgi, was what was needed to turn things in favor. He knew Lelouch would be wrapped with grief with the death of Nunnally from the FLEIJA, made by Nina as revenger against Zero killing Princess Euphemia, that was shot from the Knight of Seven, Suzaku Kururugi.

Schneizel had promised the return of Japen to the members of the Black Knights, but he was never going to do it. He was going to make up some excuse to keep it from happening. Schneizel was going to use the Black Knight for his own plans as he used the promise of returning Japan as a sort of reward until they were no longer any use to him at a point. There were only two people in this world that could stop him and his plans from happening. The first was his father, the 98th emperor of Britannia Charles Zi Britannia. With his father in his way was because most those in the Britannia army would do what the Emperor would say, along with most of the Knights of Round behind him with Bismark there. With his father dead, Schneizel would be able to take control with no problem and he even had Bismark on his side as a promise to kill the one that kill the former Emperor.

This leads to the second person who is none other than the person that killed the Emperor, his brother Lelouch Vi Britannia. Schneizel had to admit that out of all his siblings, Lelouch was the only person that could match in intelligent. This was a proved fact when they chess, which Schneizel was the winner all the time. Schneizel knew that with Lelouch having that power of Geass, that would be a huge problem for his future plans. He was able to learn a few things that would help him around that. Once he has Lelouch either in chains or dead, there would be no stopping him.

He was so close to having out of his way, but only to save once again by thiss person called Kitsune as he used those strange abilities that was shown on those video chips. The more that Schneizel thought on those abilities, the more he wanted to capture him and use those abilities for his plans. He had hope that when they were able to capture Lelouch and Kitsune along with that red hair woman pilot with no problem. Then Schneizel thought that maybe he should make that red hair woman his in some way. He had seen the reports of how skill a pilot she was. He did see from the brief moment before the Black Knight were going to shoot Lelouch, he had some sort of feeling for her. He had to admit that red hair woman did have a certain type of charm about her. Unfortunately, any idea on that had to be put on hold for the time being. He had other things to deal with and that was none other than dealing with both Lelouch and Kitsune.

About two hours later on Miyake Island

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Kitsune was now getting ready to greet the guests that were coming here. Kitsune was no fool, he knew perfectly well that when he used that much power from his gauntlet that it was going to draw so much attention. He knew that the go for nothing of a snake, Schneizel, was going to send a possible army to either kill or capture. Kitsune had a grin at this thought as there was no one else here to capture and he had no intention of going down without a fight.

As Kitsune stood in the sixth hanger, he was looking at the thing that he had here in the hanger. For the thing that he was looking at was hidden under a huge tarp that keep it hidden at this moment. "It won't be long now until I get to fight you. It's that right huh partner," Kitsune said to the thing that was under the tarp as if it was a person. The silence in the hanger was broken by the sound of an alarm of some kind. Kitsune reached into his left front pocket to grab what look to be a black touch screen cell phone.

Kitsune looked at the screen that shown a message that say EMERGENCY INTRUDER ALERT with the alarm sound going off. Kitsune touch the cancel button on the screen and start to walk over to a small table that had a few items on it. The items were one left hand black fingerless glove, what to be simple black google with a strap that goes around the head with a bit of a tint in the lens that was not too dark of being black, and there was looked to be a flash memory stick that was in the length of a simple hand knife. The flash memory stick design what looked to be how the handle of a Japanese Katana handle, the tsuka, with it red with black wrapping known as samegawa that made the red into looking like diamonds. That was also a backpack that was on the ground next to the table.

Kitsune opened the backpack and took out a simple tight fitted white sleeveless muscle t-shirt. He had placed the new t-shirt on the table and proceeded to take his black polo t-shirt off and put in the backpack. If there were any women that were around as this was happening, they would have fainted with blood gushing from their nose at the sight before them. With Kitsune wearing no shirt his upper body was seen to show that his body had impressive muscle for whatever his age was. The muscle he had were for someone that was made for fighting with both speed and power. Kitsune had once again cover his upper with the t-shirt that was on the table. Kitsune took off his glasses and put it in a protective case. Kitsune would both the glasses case and black shirt in the backpack and zipped it up.

Kitsune had put the left fingerless glove on and place the google on last. When this done, Kitsune grabbed both the backpack off the ground and the flash stick of the table. Kitsune headed toward the back of the thing under the tarp. Once he got close, he moved the tarp to see what look to metal in front of him. It did not take him long to find what he was looking for. It was hatch of some kind. Kitsune opened the hatch lid and enter the strange thing. Once inside, Kitsune placed the backpack being the only seat inside. With that out of the way, Kitsune had sat down in the seat. Kitsune then took off his gauntlet off his right arm and place in in a holding slot that was make for it.

Once Kitsune got settle in properly, he took the flash stick and inserted in the slot to his right on what was to be a control panel from the looks of it. With the flash stick in the slot going straight up and down, Kitsune moved just one of his right fingers to the top of the flash stick and with not much force to have rotate down in a 90 degrees angle. Then everything that was on both the right and left side of Kitsune along with in front of him started to turn on. It seemed to be that flash stick was the key for the thing that Kitsune was sitting in at this moment.

As the thing was powering up. Kitsune took out his phone and placed it in a dock that was made for it on his left console. "Are you there, Ritsu," Kitsune asked as he relaxed in the seat as he saw the screen in front of him was booting up. "I am right here," the sound of a girl was heard as she answered Kitsune. It was then screen of the phone lit up with the background being that of a simple living room. It was then when someone had come into view. The girl had an appearance of what would be of a high school girl. She had lilac hair color with two long hair strands behind her and light blue eyes. She had given one the thought that she was a normal girl when they saw her. This girl was no other than Ritsu, the name Kitsune just said.

"Glad to see that you made if safety back Ritsu," Kitsune said as looked at his phone. "I was afraid that I would not make it time. It was only thanks to using networking systems and satellites that I made it back," Ritsu replied with a smile on her face. The truth of Ristu is that he is not a real person but was instead a very advance A.I. that was created in a different multiverse that Kitsune had stopped by at one point. The Ritsu that was with Kitsune was actually a copy of the original Retsu. The only reason that Kitsune had got the copy of Retsu was a deal that he made with the original. Kitsune had definitely kept his end of the deal. What the deal was is another story in itself for another time.

"Why are we not leaving this place," Ritsu asked as she was wondering why Kitsune was not making an exit from this timeline. "I would usually do, but I would never get a chance like this for who knows how long until it happens again," Kitsune answered as he stretched his arms and his fingers to get them loose. "What chance it that," Retsu asked as she was checking on the operating system. "The chance to test my skill against an army of this sizes with some really good pilots in the mixed. With the best part is with me piloting a mech suit of my own against such a force," Kitsune replied with seriousness in voice as a grin appearing.

Ritsu could not but shake her head a bit as she knows that given how Kitsune was most of the time and she also knew Kitsune had one crazy trait that he could live without. The trait was that when what looks like a crazy challenge that involved fighting was before him, it would trigger his drive to try to beat it. She had long decided to label this trait of Kitsune as being a hardcore battle junkie. She knew that there was no stopping him when he gets like this, so she was going to do her best to be able to support Kitsune to the best of her programing abilities.

Code Geass: Back to The Past for a New Future

Chapter 7: IT'S TIME FOR A MECH BATTLE

(Be prepare this is going to be a long chapter)

Everything was calm and quiet around the island of Miyake. This was an island that is south of Japan, or Area 11 that was called by Britannia. The calm waters were now disturbed by a few Britannia's carrier ships that were headed straight towards Miyake. These ships were on the order of the second prince of Britannia, Schneizel. The soldiers on these ships were under orders of capturing the person responsible of the murder of Emperor Charles. As the Britannia's ships drew closer to the island, the pilots were getting ready in the Sutherlands. There would be two set of troops that would be going on the island by ground. The first would be the foot type soldiers that would not be in the Knightmare frames. The other set would be the soldiers that are piloting the frames.

There was another set of troops that were on standby with the Sutherlands Air units. These were Sutherlands that are equipped with Float System Backpack, which allow the Knightmare frames to fly in the air. These were developed and equipped to the frames after the Failed Black Rebellion a year ago. All the Knightmare mechanics that are on broad the ships were making sure that the frames were all working well, and the ammunition of the frame guns were loaded. No one in the Britannia forces were too sure on how this operation was going to go.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Inside the hanger at the abandon base on Miyake Island

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

At the long-forgotten base that had a few hangers that were mostly empty, there was only one person that was in one of those hangers. This person was none other than Kitsune. The same Kitsune that was responsible in the escape of Lelouch and Kallen from the Black Knights back at Shinjuku in Japan. It was not even three hours since Kitsune had sent Lelouch and Kallen along with others back to the past. He knew that a battle was soon going to be here. It was only a matter of time by this point.

Right now, Kitsune was sitting in a seat that was inside of an unknown purpose. Kitsune sat in the seat with his eyes close that gave the appearance that he was asleep. But the truth was that Kitsune was mentally preparing himself for the fight that he was going to be in. Kitsune opened his eyes as he looked to his left and asked, "How are things looking like Ritsu?" "All systems are green a crossed the broad. I double cheek everything to be sure and there are no problems from what I seen," a female voice answered that came from a dock phone that was on Kitsune's left. This voice belongs to no other than Ritsu, that was an A.I.

"That's good. How is the new power source doing," Kitsune asked. "The A-R-Drive is working great. I have to admit that even with that man having a drinking problem, but the man is a brilliant inventor when he gets into the right mind set," Ritsu replied with Kitsune nodding his head in agreement. "You got that right, but I am glad that he was able to help me with making power source that I needed for this. I need to check in with him and see how his relationship with that crush of his," Kitsune said as he thought about a man who own a huge business that has been started by his father. Both Kitsune and this man both had an agreement about the A-R-Drive that was developed. Kitsune had plans in place to make sure the A-R-Drive would never fall into the wrong hands.

"How long until the Britannia's forces arrival," Kitsune asked as he came out of his thoughts. "I would say about 45 minutes before the Britannia's ground forces show up at this base," Ritsu answered as she run her calculations. "Okay. Ritsu, go ahead and out the system on standby and start it back up in ten minutes before the fighting begins. I will go ahead a get my neural interface combat helmet ready," Kitsune said and Ritsu proceeded to put the system on standby. Kitsune reached down towards the floor and picked up a helmet that was between his feet. The helmet that Kitsune picked up was an HGU-55/P that had been modified.

This helmet was what Kitsune call the neural interface combat helmet. This helmet was installed with different technology from different multiverse that Kitsune had went to. Kitsune had made sure that all the different technology in the helmet was very compatible with each other. This helmet would allow the one who wore it to almost be one with a machine that the helmet was hooked up to. The way that the helmet was setup was that on the inside of the helmet were some panel type techs that would send a sort of signal to the brain with how close the panels were to the head without damaging the skin. The panel were made of some sort of material that allow comfort to the head with no problems.

For the visor for the helmet that was completely remade with the technology that was used. Once the helmet was on, the user would then proceed to have the visor cover the eyes. With the visor in place, the user would see a bunch of information and other things in their field of vison. This would allow the user to see certain information that was needed to know at the time. Kitsune had the helmet fixed up that would allow him to wear the googles that he currently had on. These googles were no ordinary ones. These googles were specially made googles for Kitsune. These google were made to keep Kitsune from using his Time Sight ability when worn. Kitsune had complete control of the Time Sight, but it was only when he was in a serious fight or battle, he would lose control, and his Time Sight would end up distracting him.

This problem was first discovered when he was in a heated spar with his combat teacher. It seems like when Kitsune was too into the fight he was no longer focus on keeping his Time Sight from activating. It took some trial and error on Kitsune part, but he was able to make these googles that would temporarily stop the Time Sight until the googles were no longer being wear. Kitsune could not stand to seeing what was able to happen when he fought. In some sort of way his Time Sight was similar to Bismark's Geass ability, but there was a huge difference. Bismark's Geass would only allow him to see into the future for a few seconds and as for Kitsune's Time Sight it allowed him to see both forward and backward in time for unknown about of time. So, in reality it was hard to say with ability was the most useful in the situation that was to come up.

Kitsune tried to consider himself a true warrior in trying to not either uses or rely on his Time Sight in battles that he was fighting. If he was to use the Time Sight, it somehow left a bitter taste in Kitsune's mouth after the battle. Kitsune saw his Time Sight not as a tool, but a part of himself. He knew that his Time Sight would prove most useful at times, but when Kitsune was in battle it was not needed. Kitsune figure that if was to rely too much on the Time Sight it could probably cost him his life if he was careless. Kitsune had intention of dying anytime soon.

Once Kitsune had checked over the helmet, he reached with his right hand toward behind the seat. From there pulled out a cable that had a plug on the end of it. Kitsune hade sure the cable was coming through the opening on the head rest of the seat he was sitting in. Kitsune took the plug in and connected it to the back of the helmet. With the connection made, Kitsune placed the helmet on his head. Once the helmet was on, he proceeds to push some of the excess cable threw the opening of the seat head rest. With this done, Kitsune rested his head back and moved the helmet visor down that allow him to see the visor screen to be display in front of his eyes.

"Do have an idea on how big a force we are going to deal with," Ritsu asked. "If I had to take a guess, I would say about a few Britannia carrier ships. Some carrier ships will carry about a good amount of ground troops that is a mix of regular soldiers and Knightmares pilots. The other carriers will possibly hold their aerial forces that will be on standby just in case the ground forces are no more. I would not put it pass that snake of a prince has at least half of the Britannia's Knights of the Round with him. I would not be surprised if that snake brings that Damocles of his here to do a test run of sorts before he launches that crazy plan of his," Kitsune answered as he gave his thoughts on this subject.

"Do you have at least an idea on why he is using a force of this nature," Ritsu asked as trying to figure out on what kind of person that Schneizel was. "For Schneizel it's all about how he makes himself look towards the people watching," Kitsune replied as he looked toward Ritsu on his phone that is docked. "What do you mean," Ritsu asked as she was confused with thew answered that Kitsune gave. "You see Schneizel is both a planner and a schemer when it comes to his goals. He is exactly the same in his way in thinking like Lelouch is. If you look at all that Schneizel was able to do when he first took part in Britannia's military affairs against the E.U. and you would see that he is the reason why the E.U. is in a stalemate of sorts," Kitsune said as he saw Ritsu nodded her head in understanding.

"As for the schemer part, you just have to look at how he was able to turn the Black Knights against Lelouch just as he did. The true nature of Schneizel is that he is a man that can't stand to be in a losing position. If you look at the battles that he took change of, he had the battle won in favor, but if you look at some other fights that happened ended in loss for Britannia. I notice that Schneizel had a plan in place that would turn things into his favor. With him bringing such a force is that he making sure that his deck is stack as much in favor as he can. The reason for that is because that Lelouch is probably the only person right now that can defeat him," Kitsune said. "Why is he not using the Black Knights with this fight," Ritsu asked as she realized that the Black Knights were not coming when she checked the on the forces that were coming as she did a quick hack of the Britannia's military network.

"It's because that that snake wants to make sure that Black Knights are left in the dark if Schneizel is able to catch Lelouch without them. This will allow to dangle the promise to return Japan to them to get them to do his dirty work as he uses the Black Knights resources to his advantage. He will hold unto the using the Black Knights until their usefulness is up," Kitsune answered. Kitsune took noticed that Ritsu was in thought with all that he said. "I would not be shocked in anyway if that snake was to use a FLEIJA at some point during the battle in some way that he believes that his victory was going to be ensure with the deaths of Lelouch and a few Knights of the Round. He will come out and say that he had no other choice in avenge his family in some way. That is true nature of that snake. Twisting the ideas of all those around him to see that his way is the only way to go in their life," Kitsune said with a bit of anger in his voice as he hates that type of person.

"The truth is that Schneizel had already lost the moment that I help save both Lelouch and Kallen that day in Shinjuku last month. Schneizel is on for a rude awaking to learn that there is going to be no victory for him today," Kitsune added as a grin took it place on his face. Ritsu agreed to what Kitsune just said just now. Ritsu began to wonder if she could try to hack into the Damocles' security systems and get a recording of Scheizel face when he learns the truth that he had lost for the first time. She would need to ask Kitsune this before the battle. That would have to wait for the moment since she other things that needs to be done until then.

On the bridge of the Damocles

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

(*Just a heads up. I put a little info bit about some of the people in the room. You can skip to the part that says "Read Here"*)

Prince Schneizel had taken a seat on a throne type chair that was in the middle of the control room of the Damocles. There were also some other people that were in the room with him. The first person that was by Schneizel was the man by the name Kanon Maldini. Kanon wad acted as an aid of the sorts to the prince. He serves as both a political and military adviser to Schneizel as well. There were rumors going around that both Schneizel and Kanon were both involve with something behind the scenes that was away from everyone eyes, but no one wants to see if the rumors are true or not. The next person is Schneizel's sister Cornelia Li Britannia. She was also the former big sister to Euphemia Li Britannia, who was killed by Zero before the Black Rebellion had happened. Cornelia was label as MIA at the end of the Failed Black Rebellion. It would be about a year later when she was found at the base of the Geass Order in change by V.V. and was held prisoner by the Black Knight were found.

Cornelia had ended up escaping around the time when the battle at the Tokyo Settlement was coming to an end. She was found by Schneizel had come aboard the Ikaruga. She has held a grudge against Lelouch, since she learned that he was Zero, since Euphemia was killed by him. The next two people are a part of a scientific research team called Camelot. Camelot was created by Schneizel that was responsible for the development of elite Knightmare Frame technology like the Lancelot Frame. The first is Lloyd Asplund, the head of the Camelot team, and other is Cecile Croomy, as an assistance to Lloyd. Lloyd is very smart man but can get carry away something like when the Lancelot was to get damaged in any way. Cecile would be there to stop should actions from going too far. There was one thing that Lloyd is truly afraid of and that is Cecile's cooking. Cecile is absolutely the worst cook ever. Lloyd knowns from first hands experience with that matter.

There were also seven others in the room and all of them are a part of the Knights of the Round. The Knight of One is Bismarck Waldstein, also known as the best Knightmare pilot in the world. His Knightmare frame is the Galahad, and he has a Geass that is his left sewn shut eye. The Knight of Three is Gino Weinberg and his frame is the Tristan. The Tristan is frame delevoped by Britannia capable of transforming between a frame mode and a fortress mode jet. He also a has bit of crush on Kallen when he first met her as a Britannia prisoner back in Toyko in Area 11. The Knight of Four is a woman by the name of Dorothea Ernst and her frame in the Palomides.

The Knight of Six is Anya Alstreim, the youngest of the Knights of the Round. Anya pilots the frame known as the Mordred. The Mordred is Britannia's heavy duty weapon assault frame ever made. Anya is an excellence pilot of the Mordred, but she was secretly under the effect of the Geass that MMarianne had used to move her soul to the young girl at the time of the assassination at the Aries Imperial Villa by V.V. at that time to save her. With the used of Emperor Charles's Geass had caused a slight side of effect that had caused Anya to not remember things clearly and had taken pictures with her phone to help with her memories. The Knight of Seven is the Honorary Britannia from Area 11 and the former son of the Prime Minster of Japan is Suzaku Kururugi and he was the first person that got to pilot the Lancelot frame back in Shinjuku under Prince Clovis at the time.

Suzaku is a talented Knightmare pilot for his age. The only reason that he holds a title of the Knights of Round is because he had brought his friend Lelouch to the Emperor after the Failed Black Rebellion a year ago. Suzaku stills feel enrages at the powers of Geass that caused the death of Euphemia, the woman that he was in loved with. Suzaku is under the mindset that if people was to simply work hard and not fight then things would be better without the need for bloodshed. Suzaku goal is to being the Knight of One and to be in charge of Area 11 as a way to show the former civilians of Japan of what can be doing threw with hard work. Suzaku believes that he will be able to change things from the inside of Britannia. But little do he knows that will never be possible in his lifetime any time soon.

Currently his Knightmare frame is the Lancelot, but that frame was damaged beyond repair during the battle at Toyko Settlement. He heard from Lloyd that him and Cecile was bring in a new frame known as the Lancelot Albion which is a more upgraded version of the Lancelot with the same energy wing technology that was put on the Guren SEITEN when the Guren was in the hands of Lloyd and Cecile for the time. The only thing with the Albion right now is that it had to get some last-minute major maintenance work done before it would be ready. In other words, is that Suzaku would not be able to fight in the upcoming battle. Not that it matters since Bismarck had pretty put Suzaku on the order not fighting for time. The reason is that Bismarck did not trust Suzaku since he was trying to kill Emperor Charles on Kamine Island. The only reason that Suzaku was still alive is only in part of Schneizel.

The Knight of Nine is a woman that went by the name Nonette Enneagram and her frame for the battle was going to be the Lancelot Club. The Club was made after the Lancelot, but the only thing about the Club it did not have the same equipment as the Lancelot did. The Club was design to more of a sniper type frame. Funny enough thing about Nonette is that she is the other person that Cornelia cannot stand to be round at any point. The last is the Knight of Twelve is Monica Kruszewski. She is in charge of the Emperor's flagship, the Great Britannia, and her Knightmare frame is the Florence. The only Knights of the Round that are not present are Two, Five, Eight, Ten, and Eleven.

The Knight of Five is a mysterious masked man that went by the name of Norland Von Lunebelg. The Knight of Ten was a man by the name of Luciano Bradley and he piloted the frame Percival. Luciano was nicknamed the Vampire of Britannia. Unfortunately, would not be joining is because he was killed during the battle of the Toyko Settlement from none other than Kallen herself with her piloting the Guren SEITEN for the first time. As for the Knights of Two, Eight, and Eleven there is nothing on their where abouts at this moment.

(*Read Here*)

"We will send in the ground force first to find and possibly flush them out of hiding. We hope that we can hopefully catch them off guard before they can counterattack with any Knightmares that they may have," Kanon said. Everyone was listening closer to what the plan was being said by Kanon. "We will have our aerial forces on standby just in case they are needed. The Knights of the Round are free to do what they want in this fight. This is the plan that Schneizel has come up with," Kanon has finished talking. "This is how the Knight of the Round are going to be place. Monica, you will go to the Great Britannia with Gino and have the aerial forces ready. Gino, you are going to be on standby with them until I give the word," Bismarck said. Both Gino and Monica nodded their heads in agreement. "Nonette and Anya will be the ground forces. Nonette, make sure you have a good point to snipe out any targets. Anya, you will be of kind of standby at a distance. Youi are only to enter the battle if needed," Bismarck added next to his order. Both Nonette and Anya nod their heads.

"Dorthea, you will be with me with some of the other aerial forces that will be on standby. As for you Suzaku try and make sure that you don't get in our way," Bismarck finished as he gave Suzaku a hard glare that would make a simple person shake in shoes in fear. Suzaku held back his voice as best he could. Suzaku wishes that he had the Albion so he can prove himself and maybe even tried to beat Bismarck. Suzaku hope with the victory over Bismarck that Schneizel will keep his promise of him making Suzaku the Knight of One and the control over Area 11. Suzaku does not know anything about the promise that Schneizel had made with the Black Knights. Little does anyone know that Schneizel had no intention of ever keeping such promises. "Now that everyone knows the plan, I suggest that we all get ready now," Schneizel said, and everyone agreed as they headed to their position.

On the beach of Miyake Island

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Small boats had just landed on the beach. With the boats close to the land mass, it was time for the soldiers to exit the boats. The first to exit were the foot ground troops. They were making sure that the area was secured before the Knightmares were deploy next. All the Britannia ground troops were being deploy all around the Island to ensure that there would no possible escape of any kind. Once the troops were all deploy, it was not long until both the Club and Mordred joined the troops on the Island. All the soldiers made sure that all of their weapons were armed and ready. With this done, the troops began to move out and headed towards the base. There was one thing that none of the troops or even the Knights themselves didn't know and that is that had they had set off some motion sensor that was set up by Kitsune.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

With Kitsune

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Kitsune heard a beep that came through the earpiece that was set up on the helmet and looked towards the screen in front of him as he could still see things in front of his vision with the visor down. "It seems that we have some company that just arrived Ritsu," Kitsune commented as saw that it was the Britannia troops that set off the alarms that he had set up. During the month of training, Kitsune had went and set up a few securities devices around the island for their safely. Now Kitsune was using them to his advantaged to know the position of the Britannia troops. "Yes, it does. I just check with the Britannia's I.F.F Transponder tags (Identification Friend or Foe) signals and I noticed that there is two Knights of the Round that are also on the island as well," Ritsu said as her outfit appearance now was that of a female military officer. Even the background behind her is that a military command center.

It was at this point that the system around Kitsune was starting back up once again. "Are you able to tell what the Knights of the Round position are at least at this point," Kitsune asked as started to get his seat belt on that was by his waist. "It seems that one the Knights is moving with the troops, but it is moving strangely than the rest of the troops. As for the other, that Knight is staying on the beach. If I had to take a guess is that this Knight must have a heavy weapon assault frame at the least," Ritsu replied as she was Kitsune was finishing buckling the seat belt at the waist and was moving to the belt that has to be buckled in front of the chest. "In a certain battle strategy that is the correct move to make in this setting," Kitsune said as he locked in the buckle of the second seat belt.

"How so," Ritsu asked with a wanting to know look on her face. "The enemy plan is to have their troops surround their target from all side with their opponent in the middle. That is what the ground troops are doing. The two Knights are going to take certain positions. One Knight is mostly like has sniper type weapon on hand. With there being a sniper on the field it makes things tricky for whoever is fighting. The second Knight is definitely having a frame that is a heavy weapon assault type. This is done just in case the advancing ground troops were to fail in some way against their opponent," Kitsune replied as he was getting his hands and fingers lose and ready. "I see, then I am guessing that in case that ground forces were defeated by chance then the aerial forces would come in," Ritsu added as she was starting to see how this battle was going to go.

"You got that right. More than likely that there is going to be another Knight at the ready to join the aerial force when that call is made," Kitsune said as he started to type something on a panel to his right in a quick motion with just his right hand. "Do you think that there will be any more surprises that may come up," Ritsu asked as she start to check on thing on her end. "If I have to take a guess at this point there is probably a third force that will be on a type of reserve and there is a chance that there will be at least two Knights in that group. As for one of the Knights in that group, it will probably be Bismark at the ready," Kitsune replied as he finished typing and looked towards Ritsu. "How were you able to know what the Britannia were planning," Ritsu asked as she was checking on the positions of the enemy and she sees that they are coming closer to where they are.

"That Prince of a snake is treating this as a sort of chess match," Kitsune replied as he moved his head around a bit to get the bit of stiffness from his neck. "Chess. How so," Ritsu asked with a tilt of her head. "You see chess is consider to be a game of strategizing for those that play. Those that play chess seems to have this way of seeing a live type of battlefield in a way that no one else can," Kitsune answered with seriousness in his voice. "Are you the same as them," Ritsu asked. "I am not. I don't even play chess," Kitsune answered back. "I thought that you played chess because it seems to me that you knew how the come battle was going to be," Ritsu replied with a little confusing in her voice. "I could never play chess. There is to many rules to follow and then there are the chess pieces and what they do at times. I was more into checkers. The only reason that I was able to figure out what the plan in is mostly because of some the reading that I do at times" Kitsune said.

"Is that so," Ritsu simply said as she looks at Kitsune. "There is that. I also did a bit of mental trick that I do from time to time, and it is tricky to do at times to do it right," Kitsune replied back. "What trick are you talking about," Ritsu asked. "The trick that I am talking about will sound simply but it is anything but. It involves one person that either had studied or was around another person for certain amount of time. This will let the first person to take sort of a state that the person could for a little bit of time to become the person that they were around. This type of persons is called a Mentalist. They are usual on tv magic show that comes up from time. While I can do it as well as them, I just did it to find out what my opponent was going to do at this stage of the battle," Kitsune answered as he started to reach for a pair of control type sticks that were on his right and left side of the sit that were about an arm length that person did not have to stretch to far for.

"I see so that is why," Ritsu said as she was just checking the enemy position and saw that they were now close. "But there is one thing that snake did not take in for this plan of his," Kitsune said with a little grin forming. "What is that," Ritsu asked.

[Music: Mobile Suit Gundam Wing OST: Mission Accomplished / Ninmu-Suiko]

"The chances of an unknown factor," Kitsune answered as he grips the control sticks. "How so," Ritsu asked with a tilt of her head. "An example would be the first battle that Lelouch had takin charge of. He was an unknown factor to Clovis. With Lelouch having just a handful of a force, he was able to turn things around. The it was shifted back to Britannia favor with the Lancelot being used. In battle the one that leads their forces must always take in the chances that something unexpected will happened," Kitsune replied as he now had a look in his eyes that shows he is ready. Ritsu nodded her head and then informed him, "The enemy will be here in ten minutes at least." "Okay then. Ritsu, I will leave you with doing the calculations that are needed as they come up. Also keep me informed if anything come up with the suit that is important. My main focus will be the battle ahead," Kitsune said and Ritsu replied, "Roger that." Kitsune grin became that of one that showed that he was going to enjoy himself in this fight. Kitsune said these last words before going quiet for who knows how long, "It's show time."

Outside the hanger about ten minutes had passed

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

The Britannia ground forces had made it to the abandon base. The forces with the Knightmare frame took their positions around the base with their guns ready to fire. Nonette took her spot that was not to close to render the sniper gun the Club had useless, but also not too far back just in case that she was needed to take actions quickly. Nonette had the troops on the ground to move in closer and quietly as possible to locate their targets. Nonette's Club was equipped with Britannia's new weapon that was a prototype that was made. The new weapon was a sniper gun that is made with the designs of the VARIS (Variable Ammunition Repulsion Impact Spitfire) gun that was used by the Lancelot. This new sniper gun also fixed with a mode change that will allow the gun to switch between long range and short range. The solider had to move carefully if they were trying to remain quiet as possibly give that the ground around the base was make up of loose rocks and gravel all around them as they walked.

All the ground soldiers were equipped with body camera's that was sending live footage towards Schneizel on the Damocles and the other Knights of the Round. This was done so those that are in charge of the forces were kept up to date with all that is going on. Some of the soldiers had split into groups of two and began to search the Hangers one to five and they found no signs of anyone in them. Soon all the soldiers started to move towards the sixth hanger with their guns at the ready. Then out of nowhere a suddenly sound came over the loudspeakers of the base that ready startled because the sound was music that nowhere on the island or those that were watching on the body camera heard before. All expect for one person. The music that was playing was at full blast on the volume.

[Music Scorpions - Rock You Like a Hurricane]

The big hanger doors were suddenly blasted off with some bombs that were set up for this exact moment. The soldiers were taken by the loud blast by the bombs. It was then that they heard over the music that was playing the sound of a vehicle burning tire by the sound of squealing that was bring heard. Then out the darkness of the hanger threw the now open door came out something that no one has ever seen before. It was strangest vehicle that no one has ever seen before in their lives. The vehicle that they were looking at was much bigger than a simple car. The length of it was of a semi-trailer of a big rig truck. The vehicle was just as armor as a tank and as for the weapons that were visible were two 5 Tube missile launcher on the side that was toward the back and a big gun of some kind that was mounted to the top left in the back by the missile launcher.

There was a total of four wheels with two of them on each side. The color scheme of the vehicle was black, red, and white. That was one thing that was weird was the two metal panels that was on each side of the strange vehicle. As the vehicle landed on the ground, it was burning rubber on the rocks and gravels that were sent flying from the back tires. The ground troops started to fire their guns the best they could since they were unable to aim given the speed of the vehicle. "Hey Ristu. Watch this. I call this one Painting the Fence," Kitsune said with a grin on his face from the inside of the vehicle's cockpit from the start. It was then the vehicle started to do donuts in a very fast pace. This was now causing a bunch of rocks and gravel to go flying at a high speed that headed straight at the soldiers. As the soldiers got hit it was causing lots of pain, but fatal injuries so far. The vehicle was also kicking up a lot of dirt in the air that was causing a like smokescreen with the dirt that was blinding everything around the vehicle with a good amount of area.

"I think you miss a spot," Ritsu said and Kitsune went harder on the gas petal to give even more speed that sent more debris flying at the soldiers. It was not long until Kitsune had stopped doing the donut and came to complete stop with it still running. Kitsune had to do this since there was too much of a dust cloud in the air that render zero visibility. The dust cloud did not last long as it began to settle down and everyone was able to see once again.

[Music stops]

The music had stopped was because Kitsune was the one behind the music playing in the first place. Once the dust had settled, it was then that Kitsune was surround by the ground troops and the Knightmares with the gun all aimed at the vehicle. Nonette had her new gun aimed as well. "Come out with your hands up or you will be destroyed," Nonette said over the Club's speaker for all to hear. The moment that Kitsune heard this, he could not keep the grin off his face as said over the speaker of the vehicle from the microphone in his helmet, "Yea says you and what army?" "What," Ritsu asked as she had turned the speaker off and looked right at Kitsune. "I just always wanted to say that," Kitsune answered and Ritsu replied, "Why?" "It sounded cool to me," Kitsune said with a cheesy looking grin as Ritsu looks at Kitsune with a look that said why are you like this at times.

As for the Britannia's forces that were surrounding Kitsune, all of them including the ones that were listening from the body cameras the look of their face was priceless. The look that they all shard was the look that basely said did that idiot really say something like that. All except for Gino, he was laughing his butt off in the Tristan. Gino for some reason thought that was funny to him. There were questions that got asked a lot in the Britannia's military and that was if Gino was dropped on his head a lot by chance when he was growing up from a kid. To this day that question was still no answered and maybe it would never be answered at any point with how things go at time.

"You better that this serious boy," Nonette said with a little anger in her voice. Nonette was taking this as the person in that vehicle was looking at all of this as a joke in the face. "I am taking this serious," Kitsune replied back. Kitsune took a glance at the monitoring systems from the helmet visor to get an idea on a plan of attack. 'I guess I will have to show them how serious I am," Kitsune thought as he gripped the control sticks again and pretty much stomp on the petal to make the vehicle take off once again in a burst of speed. Ther soldiers were taken by surprised by how quick the vehicle' speed without the sound of an engine revving up. Kitsune was able to break the surround formation that the Britannia's troops made by the startled they had had by the speed of the vehicle.

Prince Schneizel was joined by Kanon, Cornelia, Suzaku, Lloyd, and Cecil as they watched the footage from the ground troops. "Well, well that is a strange design of a vehicle," Lloyd said as he laid eyes of the vehicle that Kitsune was driving. "What do you mean," Cornelia asked as she turned to the Knightmare scientist. "I am talking about how the pilot is able to control that vehicle with the type of speed that he is doing and with how the landscape is. That vehicle must have some serious upgrades that was focus on anything that involved with the tires. The pilot must also excellently control skill that must allow him to not flip that vehicle at those speeds," Lloyd replied as everyone was looking and had seen what Lloyd was talking about. Then everyone saw something that got their attention as they watched. They had seen that this strange vehicle on the battlefield had not even trying to escape.

Back on Miyake Island

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

As those in the Damocles had thought just right. Kitsune was not making any attempt in escaping from Miyake Island. Kitsune was having fun with the situation at hand. Right now, Kitsune was chasing a few of the Britannia's troop in an act that make it looked like he aiming to run them over, but he was not going to do it. It was too much fun in scaring them into believing he would though. Ritsu could not help but shake her head in the antics of Kitsune right now. As for Kitsune, there was a song that was playing in head that make him think about what he was doing to the troops and that song was called Uneasy Rider by The Charlie Daniels Band. Kitsune could not but let out a small laugh at that.

Nonette had ordered the Knightmare troops to open fire on that vehicle in hopes that they could dstract him long enough to let the soldiers have time to get out of the way to safety. Nonette had called Anya to come support them in launching a trap assault against the vehicle. The plan was simply enough to follow. Nonette and the other Knightmares would shoot at the vehicle and hopefully led it to specific spot where Anya with the Mordred's Stark Hadron Cannons would fire at with the timing of everything all set. This would be proved to be a good plan that would work, if it was not for Ritsu that was motioning everything from the vehicle with Kitsune. "They are leading you into a trap. You know that right," Ritsu told as soon as she seen that Modred was moving from its previous spot when in arrival on Miyake. "I know. Ritsu I need you to do some quick calculations on where the most likely spot that the attack is going to happen and what the most likely time that the hit from the weapon from that Knightmare is going to be," Kitsune asked as he was mostly focus on what was going on at the moment around him.

"Will do," Ritsu replied as she was already doing it. Ritsu had already figured that Kitsune had some what of plan that was forming in his head. She knew that if he was able to pull his counter plan off right it would leave everyone shocked. "I am sending the info to your helmet of the time and location of their trap that they are setting," Ritsu said as soon as she finished her calculations. "Thanks for that," Kitsune said as he just pulled off a hard right turn at high speeds to avoid hitting one of the few smaller buildings around the base.

When Kitsune was setting up things up at this base, he had ended up checking all the buildings to see what was useable or not. In some of the smaller building he had found them filled with high explosives that were abandoned and forgotten about. Kitsune knew that the armor of this vehicle was tough, but he was not sure if him driving into a small building that filled to the brim with explosive would put some serious damaged in the armor and he was not willing to find out at this point in time. The first thought that came to mind was a Mexican Oil refinery of a different multiverse that was blown up and all that was left was a huge crater of a hole. The reason for the destruction of the oil refinery had something to do with some type of creature that was never seen for an extremely long time. Kitsune would have to check into that some day when he had the time.

The Club and the Sutherlands was able to keep the vehicle busy as the foot troops made their way to anything that would at least provide a bit of protection from what they considered to be a crazy driver of the sorts. Soon the Mordred was in its new position in the air with its Hadron Cannons charging to its maxing fire power to be unleash on the vehicle that was down below. Nonette soon had the output power of the Club's VARIS gun increase. This would allow Nonette when she fires the VARIS now it would leave some craters in the ground, and this would ensure that she would be able to make the vehicle in front of her to go where she wants it to as she shoots towards the front of where the vehicle was going.

The moment that Anya had informed Nonette that the Hadron Cannons was almost fully charged up, it was time to spring their traps on that strange vehicle. Nonette had to take the shots with the VARIS sniper gun mode to get any chances for the plan to work. Nonette was successful in her shots that she had fired towards the ground in front of the vehicle. Kitsune was steering the vehicle in different directions to avoid the craters that was make by the Club. Kitsune had was sure that the enemy was going ahead with their plan to either stop or destroy him is his vehicle. It was a good thing that Kitsune already had a few tricks that he had up his sleeves and those tricks were going to be the biggest shock to the Britannia's when he pulls them off. Just as Kitsune was close to the spot where Nonette wanted him at, Anya had seen this and was soon firing the Hadron Cannons right towards the vehicle.

"There is a surge of energy coming right at us," Ristu informed Kitsune. Kitsune had a simple grin on his face and then he proceeded to put his plan off. Just as the energy from the Hadron Cannon hit the ground, there was a huge explosion that had blinded everyone's vision. Before the blast hit the ground, all of the Britannia's had turn their eyes away and ended up missing what ended up happened. Kitsune had stopped his vehicle mere moments before the shots were fired from the Hadron Cannons. Once the blast hit the ground, Kitsune once again took off with crazy speed right towards where the blast had hit at. It seems like that after the blast had hit the ground, it had caused some of the ground that was in front of the vehicle to come up a bit and formed what looked to be a ramp that Kitsune was heading towards.

[Music Ends]

Nonette, Anya, and the other troops looed to see if their plan had work when the debris that was in the air had clear. They were shocked to see that the vehicle that they were trying to shoot at was still in one piece as it looked like it had never reach where the blast from the Hadron Cannons had happen. Nonette had seen that the vehicle was heading toward the now made ramp. She had quickly got her VARIS gun ready as she now plans to shoot it in either the air or just as it landed back on the ground. Kitsune press a button that caused the vehicle to speed up even more. The button that was pressed was a boost type button that gave the vehicle the suddenly boost in its speed. Just as the vehicle reached the ramp, Kitsune had a big smile on his face as he pressed another button as soon as the vehicle had hit the ramp that send it in the air. Everyone that was watching was completely floor by what they just saw.

[Music: Mobile Suit Gundam Wing OST: The Wings of the Boy that Killed Adolescence]

The Vehicle suddenly started to transform in midair. The front of the vehicle moved down as it formed the legs with the wheels being right under the feet. The metal panels that were on the side moved a bit in this transformation. The tip that was closed to the feet moved back that gave the appearance of a slant looked. The two back tires had folded in that showed the round of the tires. The arms had come out during the transformation. Soon the head popped out and the eyes had lit up in a burning glowing of green acid color. *(For an image go to google and type in { https/eurekaseven./wiki/Terminus_typeR505 } to see a picture. You may have to look on google for the picture for both the mech suit and vehicle that is white in color. The name of the mech is { Type R505 Sumner Sturgeon Custom }. If you find the picture of it replace the color as with the purple parts with black and the orange with red)* Soon it landed on the other side of the newly made crater that was made from the Mordred's Stark Hadron Cannons.

All of the Britannia's troops that were either on the island or watching on the body cameras were absolutely jaw-dropping at the transformation that the vehicle had went through. The only known machine that could transform between a mech suit mode and vehicle mode was Gino's Tristan. There were some rumors that there were some Knightmares that was being development by the E.U., but the information has not been confirmed yet. As everyone looked at the new mech suit that was now on the field, they took noticed that the height of the new machine was just a little bit taller than the Sutherland.

All of them had also noticed that were things that known Knightmare frames had that this machine that was in front of them did not. The first thing that caught their attention was there was no land spinner, which is a high mobility propulsion system which allows the frame to move with a wheelbase function without walking as much, that was to be mounted to the legs. The next to be seen was by those that were in front of it as they did not see Fact sphere open sensor camera that not located at the head or anywhere else on the torso of the machine. There definitely no cockpit ejection system from what they had seen so far. For those that were in the Knightmare frames on the island, they had checked their frames system, and they did not see any I.F.F. tag signal coming from that machine.

[Music Ends]

"How is everything looking Ritsu," Kitsune asked as he was looking through the visor of his helmet that was showing him what was in front of his machine. "All systems are green a crossed the board and there are no problems with the A-R-Drive power source. You are good to commence to fight whenever you are ready," Ritsu answered as she was ready to see what this machine could really do in the hands of Kitsune. Kitsune nodded his head and took a deep breath before releasing it. "This is Kitsune piloting the LFO Terminus Type-R505 Kai Custom Edge. Entering the battle," Kitsune said with determination in his voice as both his face and eyes showed that he was so ready to fight in his machine known as Edge. Kitsune pressed the gas petal, and the Edge once again took off in a blaze of speed.

From the bridge of the Damocles, all of them that were there were still watching the footage from the body cameras. They were taken back on how the strange vehicle was able to avoid all the gun fire from the Sutherland. They were sure that the Modred's Hadron Cannons would do the job on destroying that vehicle, but they were surprised that the vehicle had stopped just a couple feet of the blast zone. Their surprised would not fade for time for what they then saw the vehicle do next. As the vehicle transformed into a mech suit mode, they could not believe their eyes. Prince Schneizel, Princess, Cornelia, Kanon, Suzaku, and Cecile were lost for words, but as for Lloyd though that was a different story in itself.

Lloyd had his head looking down that covered his eyes from everyone, and his body was vibrating like he was having a major stroke of some kind. The truth was that shaking that was happening was no stroke. It was him trying to hold back his excitement as a Knightmare development scientists. The moment that vehicle had become almost like a Knightmare type suit before his eyes, it had caused a spark of some kind to hit wanted to get his hand on that machine and uncover all of it mysteries that were hidden in it. Llyod was able to hold his crazy that would cause Cecile to stop as Lloyd looked at his tablet pad that he had with him. The footage was streaming to it as it converted what was seen into data that Lloyd was able to understand. It was then he saw something that caught his attention and not hold back is excitement any longer.

"We must capture that machine at any cost your highness," Llyod said with a cheer type sound in his voice. Everyone looked toward him as he said this. "Why should we," Cornelia asked as she wonder if that man had finally lost his mind. "The reason being is that whatever is powering that machine is something else entirely," Lloyd replied back with the excitement being shown on his face. "What do you mean," Cecile asked as she moved closer just in case Lloyd was going too far in his craziness like before that she dealt with time from time. "The footage from that machine is being stream threw my pad and the energy that was bring scan on my pad had shown that whatever is powering that machine is something that cannot be ignore," Llyod answered.

"How so," Schneizel asked as this catch his attention. "The energy level from what I can see on my pad has shown that it levels is more than that of the Yggdrasil Drive that is being used by the Britannia's latest Knightmare Frames that has been made," Lloyd answered and this shocked everyone that was listening. "Are you sure about this," Cecile asked as she wanted to be sure that Lloyd was saying was true. "If you don't believe me, looked at the data yourself," Llyod replied as he handed the pad to Cecile so she could look at what he just saw before telling everyone in the room. Cecile tooked the Pad from Lloyd and began to look over the data that was on the screen. Soon Cecile could not believe what she was looking at with her own eyes.

"What Lloyd had just said is the truth," Cecile said with a surprised look on her face as her eyes never left the pad with all the data so far was still on the screen. "How much power are we talking about here," Suzaku asked as this question was on everyone's mind now. "To be honest, I am not even sure. If we were to capture that machine and study what its power source is, that would give us a start as the least," Lloyd answered as the thoughts of studying of it was sending chills down his spine of the excitement. Schneizel gave this some thought for a moment before he turned to Kanon and said," Kanon send word to the troops and the Knights to capture that machine with as little damage, if possible, toward the torso area where the power source is most likely located." "Yes, My Lord," Kanon replied as he headed over to the communications control to give the orders. Cecile turned by to the monitor that they were watching on and she let out a grasp that caught the attention of everyone as they looked to see that something just happened to have caused them to be shocked once again.

The moment that Kitsune had step on the gas petal in the Edge, everything was just a blur of black and white for the Britannia's forces that was in the area. No one was able to keep up with the speed that it was showing. The speed was on another level then what it had shown in its vehicle mode. Kitsune had used the now faster speed of the Edge to get behind the Sutherlands without them even taken notice of the fact that he did. The Edge came right between two of the Sutherland and grabbed the back of the head of the two and slammed the Sutherlands forward headfirst into the ground. The force of the impact caused the two Sutherlands Cockpit Ejection System to active and ejected the two pilots from the now grounded frames.

Everyone was shocked by how fast that had happened before their eyes. The Britannia's tried to get their guns fixed on the position of where the Edge was, but it was too late. The Edge was gone again in a burst of speed. The next time that anyone would see the Edge was when the Edge had jump in the air. As the Edge was coming down, Kitsune had made the Edge do a mid-air spinning kick on a Sutherland. When the kick connected, it had sent the Sutherland right into two other Sutherlands that were not prepare for the crash. As the Edge landed on the ground, it had revealed that it had close arm weapons on it.

The close arm weapons were located on the elbow arm joints. The weapons were known as Boomerang Knives. The Boomerang Knives had detached and Kitsune had with quick motion control had the two Boomerang Knives in the hands of the Edge. Kitsune had the knives in the position of how a person would originally use a knife for everyday life. Then the Edge dashed off once again toward a bunch of Sutherlands. The Sutherland's pilots had seen the Edge coming right at them and started to fire their guns in the hopes of stopping the Edge. It proved to useless, as the Edge was unaffected by the bullets as it had dodged every single shot that was heading straight for the Edge. As soon as the Edge came close to the Sutherlands, it was when the Edge went on the attack. The Edge had used the Boomerang Knives to cut the right where the arms, legs, and the head were right around the torso area that house the cockpit control system.

As soon as the Edge was finished with those Sutherland, it had headed straight for another Sutherland that was by itself. Kitsune had the put away one the Boomerang Knives back where it was lock at on the elbow joint. Once the Edge came up on the lone Sutherland, the Edge slash with it the Boomerang knife in the left hand right toward the Sutherland's arm that was holding the gun. With the gun holding arm cut off, the Edge quickly grabbed the gun and started to shoot right the other Sutherlands that was a bit distance away from the Edge. The guns that were being used by the Sutherlands were assault rifles type guns. As the bullets that were fired from the gun that the Edge was using, the bullets were hitting the Sutherlands that was causing the Cockpit Ejection System to active and ejected them just like the first two Sutherlands to get taken out.

If one was to look closely with how the battle was going, they would notice that the Edge had not killed any of the pilots of the now down Sutherlands. The reason is because of a code that Kitsune had made for himself to follow in battle. When that code was made, Kitsune had followed it to the letter. That code was to not kill needless on the battlefield and only to kill when there is no other option available. The reason for this code creation is only known to one person only and that was none other than Kitsune himself. Once the assault rifle was out of bullets, the Edge had thrown the gun right at an incoming Sutherland that caused it the crash because the Edge had thrown the gun very hard. The Edge had proceeded to disable the Sutherland that Kitsune had taken the gun from.

With that out of the way, the Edge was speeding around the area and bring an almost like blur to all that was watching. Kitsune suddenly had the Edge jumped into the air once again to avoid some missiles that were shot right at him that came from the Modred. Anya had the Modred hovering in the air for some time now. Anya had a hard time with trying to get a lock on the Edge. Once she was able to get a lock of some kind, she shot some missile in hope of hitting the Edge, but unable to since the Edge was able to avoid them at the last minute. Kitsune looked right at the Modred as soon the Edge had landed back on the ground. Kitsune had decide to use the Edge other weapon since the Mordred was in the air. The weapon in question was the big gun like weapon that was mounted on what is now considered to be the left shoulder of the Edge. The gun that was mounted was really a laser cannon.

Kitsune had set the Modred as the target for the cannon and had fired a shot right at the arms as a sort of test. As a laser was shot from the cannon, it was on a dirct heading for the arm, but the shot was stopped by the defense systems of the Modred. The defense system was the Blaze Luminous System, which forms an energy shield around the nearby part that is equip. The Blaze Luminous system was created by Lloyd and Camelot as a special type of shield that exists as a space created due to the super compression of a Coulomb field. The Blaze Luminous system was first tested with the Lancelot during the battle in Shinjuku. The Blaze Luminous that was equipped on the Modred was different then the Lancelot and that is the Modred's Blaze Luminous would cover the whole frame instead of just one part like an arm that is equip with it.

The Blaze Luminous systems was originally made to be a defensive type of weapon. There was some research and development projects going on to see it the Blaze Luminous could be use in other ways instead of defensive. One of such projects is trying the Blaze Luminous into an offensive weapon for Knightmare usage. The only known Blaze Luminous offensive weapon that Britannia had successful made was a Particle Drill Lance that was equipped to the Percival frame that was used by the now dead Knight of Ten Luciano Bradley. The other known weapon made was a Needle Blazer that were equipped to the Vincent's frames. The Needle Blazer is made to pierce armors with a devastating and powerful effect when it was used.

Kitsune has a small frown as he saw that the shot was stopped. Kitsune had the Edge moving once again with it speed to not get the Modred the chance to fire any more missiles at the Edge. "Ritsu, are you able to do a work around on getting a shot through those shields by chance," Kitsune asked as his main focus was on the control of the Edge. "I am already on it. Since that shield was able to stop the first shot, I was able to get a reading on that shield using the scanner in the Edge's eyes. I believe I will be able to recalibrate the laser cannon that should allow another shot to pierce threw it with no problems," Ritsu answered as she was doing just as she said. The truth of the matter is that Ritsu has been helping Kitsune quite a lot in the fights right when the Edge had transformed. It was because of Ritsu's help that had let Kitsune to be able to take out those Sutherlands without taking a single life.

With the use of the Edge's eye scanner, it was easy for her to find the likely spot of the Sutherland frames that would cause the Cockpit Ejection system to active. Kitsune was truly thankful for the help that Ritsu had given him. Ritsu was able to process the information on the Modred's shield and had made the calibration to the laser cannon. "Go ahead and try another shot," Ritsu said as soon as the calibration were done. Kitsune nodded his head as he had the Edge stop just long enough to take another shot at the Modred. Anya had noticed what the Edge was doing and thought that it was pointless to even try to shoot the Modred as long as the Blaze Luminous was working fine. She had once again activated the Blaze Luminous once she was sure that the Edge was going to shoot another laser at the Modred.

Once the Edge had shot another laser shot, Kitsune waited to see if the shot would pierce that shield. Just as the laser was just about to come in contact with the shield, it was then that Anya, Lloyd, and other Britannians that were watching saw the impossible. The laser shot had pierced threw the shield and hit the arm which left some damage to it. Kitsune was grinning as he saw the hit from the laser shot. Kitsune was once again speeding around the field with a plan in mind for the Modred.

Lloyd was left speechless the moment that the laser shot was able to pierce right through the Blaze Luminous system. Cecile and Suzaku were left dumb founded because they knew the capacities of the Blaze Luminous given that one had a hand in helping in its development and the other from firsthand using it constantly on the battlefield. "How is that possible Lloyd. I thought that nothing could get passed the Blaze Luminous," Schneizel had dementedly asked. 'I have no idea. It should have been impossible. The only way that it could be possible if there was another person in that frame that was just as smart as me to be able to have a slight chance of that happening. That is my only guess at this moment," Lloyd answered as he was still not sure on how it was possible. "It seems like that we will have to not only capture that frame, but the pilot as well to get those answers," Schneizel said with a bit of anger in his voice as he knew that this could somehow ruin his plans in some way.

Kitsune had quickly moved the Edge behind the Modred and had taken a few laser shots right at the Modred's Float Systems backpack. When the shots had hit the backpack, Anya had no other choice, but to land on the ground to avoid a crash landing. The moment that the Modred's feet touched the ground, the edge was coming right at the Modred with it Boomerang Knives ready. Anya had no time to defend herself form the Edge assault that left the Modred with no arms or any of the other weapons she had on the Modred given that the Edge had taken care of it. Anya could not but feel so helpless as she sat inside the Modred unable to fight. Just as Kitsune finished making sure that the Modred could no longer attack, he was barely able to avoid a shot that came from the VARIS sniper rifle from the Club.

Kitsune would be honest when it would come up that he had totally forgot Nonette and her Club as he was fighting. Kitsune was going to fix that mistake right now. he had the Edge head right toward the Club. Nonette saw that the Edge was head right at her and she started to fire shot at the Edge with the VARIS sniper rifle as she hopes to cause some kind of damage of any kind. That proved to serve no use since with the speeds that the Edge was going, Kitsune was able to avoid every single high-power shot that was coming his way. Nonette had seen that using the VARIS sniper rifle was getting her nowhere and she had figure that even if she was able to switch the gun to short range mode would probably do no better.

Nonette had decide to toss the VARIS sniper rifle to the side and use the Club's secondly weapon that was equipped with. The weapon was another Britannia created weapon that is known as a MVS blade (Master Vibration Sword). This sword is very different then a regular type of sword. The MVS in type of weapon that uses a combination of extremely high oscillation rates and temperatures in order to increase the cutting effectiveness of the weapon. The way to tell if a blade is a MVS or not is if the gray material of the blade were to turn red in color. It should be known that the deeper the red color it is the more it can become sharper, stronger, and durable. The only thing that can stop the cutting power of the MVS is another MVS of some type. Once again, the Lancelot was the first to use as a test of it before more were made to be equip to others Britannia's frame.

[Music Sword Art Online OST: Swordland]

Nonette hopes that she will be able to at least be able to put a cut on the Edge. Just as the Edge drew closer to the Club, Nonette drew out the MVS and prepare to fight with the sword. To anyone that was still watching by chance would be shocked by what the Edge had done once again. The Edge had put away both of the Boomerang Knives as it head right towards the Club. Kitsune had press another button that had caused a compartment to open on the left arm that was above the back side of the hand. Out of the compartment came out cylinder type item to pop out. Kitsune had used the Edge's right hand to grab the cylinder item. Just as the Edge came close to the Club, Nonette had taken a swing with the MVS towards the Edge, but before the blade would make contact with the Edge it was stopped. It was stopped by laser type beam that came out of nowhere that had stopped the MVS.

The reason was that the cylinder item that was in the Edge's right hand was none other than a laser type sword or what it is better known as a beam saber. The beam saber was a portable made sword for a mech suit that could cut through metal like a hot knife threw butter with no problems. It was looking like that both the MVS blade and the beam saber were able to cancel out the cutting power of them. Everyone was seeing the Edge's green beam saber stopped the Club's red MVS in a blade lock of some kind. The two broke the lock by jumping back a bit and they got into position to get ready for a mech battle of swords. The two mech would cross blades over and over again. The Edge was able to keep the pressure on the Club give the way the Edge could move compared to the Club.

The Edge and the Club began to move in a clockwise circle with a good distance away from each other. Not even five seconds had passed before the two mechs had clash against each other with their sword type weapons. The two mech kept clashing their blades against each other over and over again as it was some sort of stalemate. It would seem like that this battle of the blades would never end any time soon, but in one moment is all that it takes. That one moment was when Nonette let down her guard just for a moment that Kitsune took advantage of. Kitsune used the Edge's beam saber to slash right arm of the Club that was holding the MVS off.

Nonette had quickly back up as fast as the club could to get away from the Edge since the Club was pretty much unarm. The beam saber for the Edge suddenly disappeared and then the Edge rushed towards the Club. Kitsune had decided to pick the beam saber back up by putting it back in the left arm as the Edge headed towards the Club. Nonette took quick notices that the Edge was coming right at her and decide to go down fight any way she could against this monster of a machine that was in front of her. The club started to rush forward right towards the Edge. Just as the two mech looked like they would end up in a head on collision, the two mech started to fight using their arms and legs. To some of the Knightmare pilots that were watching were in for quite a show. It was rarity to see a Knightmare type fight with no weapons of any kind not being used. Nonette was able to keep pace with the Club only having just one arm to use.

The Edge was sending in some sharp, quick, and powerful punches that were leaving dents in the armor. Every time Nonette tried to counter punch, the Edge would redirect it to the side with the bare movement with its hands. To those that were watching this had found it strange that the pilot of the Edge was not using any of it weapons to finish this fight. That was because Kitsune was a person that wanted to challenge those that he was against in even type field. Make no mistake Kitsune would fight to win. He just like to get himself a bit of more of a challenge as he fought. Suddenly the Edge dropped to the ground just as the Club went in for another punch just to hit nothing. With the Edge having both of its hands on the ground, it shot out with one of its legs and was going in for a leg sweep kick move.

Nonette was not prepare for the legs of the Club to be kick towards the side and fall towards the ground. Just as quick as lighting the Edge was back on its feet and it has unleased quick punches right at the joints of the Club for its arms and legs. The Edge had made the Club unable to move under its own power and would require assistance to get back to the Britannia's ships for repairs.

[Music Ends]

Just as Kitsune was trying to catch his breath really quick, an alarm beep went off and he saw that the Britannia's ariel force was heading straight for him. Kitsune was about to move the Edge into an attack position, he was stopped by the voice of Ritsu. "I hate to bring this up now, but I had to bring it to your attention that the Edge's feet wheel system is on the verge of being destroyed if you continued to use the high speed to it maximum that you have been doing thus far," Ristu said as she showed a diagram of the Edge on the screen in front of Kitsune. The Edge diagram was showing red right where the feet would be located at. "I know that I forgot to get those overhaul upgrade done as I was going through the different multiverses when I was getting work done of the Edge," Kitsune said as he knew that there was something that was bugging him since the Edge had transformed into its mech mode and now he knows.

Ristu could only looked at Kitsune with a deadpan look, but it soon changes to a sigh of breath. She had known that Kitsune was a person that had many things on his mind and could not really blame him from this oversight. "I guess it is a good thing that this next fight that is going to happen will be in the air then," Kitsune said with a grin as he was really to another piece of gear that was for the Edge. Kitsune knew that the Britannia's aerial force was equipped with Float Systems and knew that fighting in the air was a whole lot different than fight on the ground, but this got Kitsune's blood pumping at this. "How long can the feet wheel system can hold out," Kitsune asked. ""It will barely last for two minutes at the least," Ristu replied with a bit of concern at what actions that Kitsune was going to do to use that item in question. Kitsune could never do thing simple could he, but that what Kitsune interesting as a character to her. Kitsune never believe in doing things the easy way at time. He prefers doing thing in the crazy fun ways instead.

Kitsune had notice a single Sutherland frame that was still moving, and an idea had come to him on what he was going to do. Once again, the Edge had taken off in a burst of speed like it had been doing to the ground forces all this time. The edge was headed straight for that Sutherland, and it took barely a minute to reach it. The pilot had seen the Edge coming and was frozen in terror at what this machine was going to do to him at this moment, but that change with what the Edge had done now. The Edge had jumped, and its right foot was on top of the Sutherland's head. And with the force of another jump from the top of the Sutherland's head, that was crushed form it, the Edge had used the Sutherland as a step to launch itself in the air. "HEY, DID YOU JUST STEP ON ME," the pilot yelled over the loudspeaker for all to here.

As the Edge jumping in the air, Kitsune had active the boost that came out of the tires that were folded. Because of how the Edge suit was designed it was possible for the suit to set up with a jump boost. Once the Edge got to the proper height that was needed for Kitsune to use the item that will allow the Edge to fight in the sky. Kitsune had the Edge reach and grabbed the two metal panels that were on the side of the legs. With the two panels in each hand, Kitsune had the ended up putting the two-panel next to each other where the side was in a solid straight line. It was then the two panels became connected and had formed a board of some kind. Soon the Edge was standing on the board in a position of a surfer. As the Edge stood on the ref board, a strange energy was out from under the board. The board that the Edge was on was called a ref board. The ref board was design for LFO suits to fly in the sky like a surfer riding the waves in the sky above. With the ref board being used, this will allow the Edge to fight in the sky with almost the same type of sky that Kitsune was using on the ground.

The multiverse dimension that used the LFO (Light Finding Operation) had called the technique that uses the ref boards as Lifting. In that dimension Lifting is considered to be a sport there for the people. Of course, the people have use ref boards that were human size. The ref boards were made to use the unique energy signature that was in the air was what allow the board to sort of fly in the air. But since other dimensions did not have this same energy type in the air it would be impossible to use the red board. Lucky Kitsune had looked for different scientist of the field of machine engineering of the sort to make a work around that problem that would allow the Edge to fly in the air with no problems. With this the Edge was going to have high speed mobility in the air that no one has ever seen before.

On board the Damocles

Those on board the Damocles were continued to be more shocked by what the Edge was doing. It was shocked with the Edge able to pierce the Blaze Luminous on the Mordred and even taken it down while the Edge was at it. The next was the Edge fighting the Club with a strange sword weapon that was able to match the MVS weapon. It even blew their minds as seeing both the Edge and the Club going at it in a fist fight that ended in victory for the Edge. It was crazy at all the things that the Edge was doing along with the weapons that it has shown so far.

"This can't be possible," Cornelia said as she could not believe her eyes that Nonette was defeated as well. "What is your take on this machine, LLoyd," Schneizel asked as he needed some idea of what happening. "To mee it is like that there was one person that design the framework and then there were a bunch of different people that improve it with different equipment of the like," Lloyd answered as he was looking carefully at the data on his pad. "What do you mean," Kanon asked as the answered was unclear of a bit of it. "An example would be is how when we got our hands on Rakahata's Guren. Both me and Cecile changed that whole Knightmare frame with it having MVS fork knives, a new type of float system that in an energy wing that is capable of defense, and a few others thing as well. It would be something along those lines with the machine," Lloyd replied.

"Take the weapons that it had used so far. It had deployed those two small knives looking weapons. Those knives had no trouble with cutting the Sutherland's armor at all. Then there is that laser cannon that was able to pierce the Modred's Blaze Luminous. The way that it was able to pierce the shield on the second shot. From what we saw, the first shot was possible some sort of test as it hit the shield before the second shot. The reason being is that laser cannon was possible modify in some way that would allow the laser shot to be changed in some way," Cecile explain as she used her pad to show what she is talking as she had it appeared on one of the monitors. Everyone was now looking at the monitors as they listen.

"The next would be that laser type sword that he had used against the Club's MVS. The laser sword was able to block the MVS as this shows that both weapons are able to stand against each other on the same level. Once the laser sword was able to cut the Club's arm, it has shown to be an almost clean cut, but it shows that the laser sword is able to cut at very high temperature that would almost the same properties as the MVS. Even the speed of that machine is dangerous in itself. None of the weapons that were used was able to land any hits. It is also able to move with a certain amount of flexibility in how it fist fight against the Club. Along with the high energy signature that was detected. it has only shown to us that is able to fight on par with any of the most advanced frames that we had developed so far," Cecile finished explaining as she took a step back.

Schneizel, Cornelia, Kanon, and Suzaku let the information that was explained to them set in their minds for a bit. "Do you think it is possible to defeat that machine in any way," Suzaku asked as this was becoming a concern with what that machine was able to do so far. "The only thing that I can think is if were able to limit the movements by putting craters in the ground. This could possibility stop him long enough for our forces to surround him before he had time for an escape. With some aerial forces added could help out a lot," Lloyd answered. Schneizel, Cornelia, and Suzaku could see the merits of the plan that was proposed. "Just think about all the thing that I can do with once we get our hands on that machine," Lloyd said with excitement that caused everyone to have a sweat drop on their hands at Lloyd's action.

Cecile came up behind Lloyd and gave him a fist to the back of his head which caused him to hit the ground hard with lump on his head. Cecile grabbed Lloyd's leg and began to drag him away as she mumbles under her breath. Cecile was so ready to give Lloyd a stern lecture about how he acts in front of the royal family. As the four other people in the room watched this happen, Suzaku looked towards the monitors and he quickly said, "Everyone Look." The other three including both Cecile and a now conscious Lloyd looked to the screen and were startled by what they saw the Edge do now. It was now on a board as it was just hovering in the air and clearing showing that the machine was not just a land base suit as all.

In the sky above the base on Miyake Island

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Inside the cockpit of the Edge, Kitsune was seating there with his eyes close just for moment with a smile on his face. Kitsune always enjoy the feeling of flying through the sky. The way that the air rush passed him. Free from the gravity of the earth below him. Sometime Kitsune wished that he could be a bird, so he could be free and go anywhere in the world as he wishes. With him being in the Edge using the ref board was the closes that he was getting to being sort of free in the sky. Soon Kitsune had to come back to the matter at hand. That was the Britannia's aerial forces that was being led by the Knight of Three, Gino Waldstein, as he piloted the Tristan frame.

Kitsune was going to be in a dogfight in these skies and he was looking forward to it. As for Gino, he was starting to feel some excitement for some reason. Gino was at time an easy going at time when he was not piloting. Gino is a man that is very loyal to the Britannia nation that he was both born and raise. Gino was glad to be asked to test out the new Knightmare frame Tristan that could transform when it was developed. Gino also formed a close friendship with both Anya and Suzaku as they hand out with the other Knights of Round. Even though Suzaku was an honorary Britannia, he had liked the passion and goals that Suzaku has. Gino had to admit it is a little ambitious to try and reach the title of Knight of One. Right now, Gino was looking right at the machine that had taken out both the Knight of Six and Nine with barely any problems.

Gino was taken back at how that same machine was now in the air with him and the other aerial troops. He had figured that with the aerial forces would give them the advantage of it on the ground, but that was no longer happening. As he looked at the machine that was in front of him, there was a strange feeling that he was feeling, and he knew what that feeling was. That feeling of a challenger that is appearing before person. A challenger that will push one's skills to the limit and even beyond that at points. Gino could not stop his hands from gripping the control sticks tight and the grin from his face. "All unit's attack," Gino said as an order as he watched the aerial troops starting the Edge. His plan was to see just what the Edge could do up in the skies before goes to battle with it.

[Music Motley Crue - Kickstart My Heart]

Kitsune seen the troops coming right towards him. Kitsune let out a small grin and said, "It's time to soar." Then the Edge moved into intercepting the Britannia's troop. It took the Britannia's by surprised by how fast the Edge was moving. The Edge had deployed his boomerang knives once again. Just as the Edge came close to the Britannia's aerial, the Edge started to move like surfer on the water that was riding the waves. None of the troop were able to response to how the Edge was now moving. Because of this the Edge was able to move, the Edge was able to get behind a few of them and used the boomerang knives to cut a few of the wings of the aerial Sutherlands Floats systems which ended up making the Sutherlands fall and flying out of control. It was impressive that none of the falling Sutherlands had not crash into each other as they tried to land as safely as possible on Miyake Island.

The Edge then shocked everyone when the Edge had decided to throw the knives. They were confused at first, it was then that the some of the aerial troops that remain suddenly to damage out of nowhere as they had clearly seen the Edge was not even close to them. Then they see that the knives that the Edge had thrown were spinning in the air. They then realized that the knives were in the shape of boomerangs. The Edge's boomerang knives were a unique type of weapon. With the Edge using them in close range it could pretty much cut anything when it was combined with the strength in the Edge's arms and the speed.

Once the boomerang knives were thrown, they would act just like a boomerang, but the knives would lack the cutting power that was need. When Kitsune got his hand on the Edge, he had the Edge go through some crazy upgrade maintenance done on it and the boomerang knives were no exception. The boomerang knives were fixed with a pre target programing system that could be set by Kitsune before being throw. The knives edges were sharpened. Once the boomerang knives were thrown, the knives released an energy burst that caused the boomerang knives to have both the speed and power that was needed to cut at long range attacks. It would seem like to the Britannia's noticed that the Edge was full of surprises.

Once the boomerang knives had attacked the pre-programed target set, they started to head right back to the Edge while the Edge was moving around the sky. As soon as the Edge caught the boomerang knives, it was then a few of the Sutherlands were flying right toward the Edge. Kitsune saw this and could not but smile as he had an idea that came to mind. The Edge took off in high aerial speed with the Sutherlands following him. The Sutherlands did try to fire at the Edge, but that was useless given that the Edge was moving in a snake like movement to avoid being hit by the bullets.

The Edge activated the boosters and caused the Edge to speed up. Then the Edge started to tip the front of the ref board upward. It did not take long for the Edge to go straight up in the air. With the distance that the Edge had put in-between him and the Sutherlands. Kitsune had stopped the boosters and once again moved the tip of the ref board into a 90-degree angle and was now heading right towards the Sutherlands. Kitsune was going in for a vertical drop the Edge. Once the Edge was in position, Kitsune reused the boosters to launch at fast speed once again right towards the Sutherlands. The Sutherlands tried to fire upon the Edge once again, but the Edge was again avoiding all the bullets that were fired at the Edge as it headed towards the group of Sutherlands. The Edge had it boomerang knives at the ready and when it was close to the group, that was when the Edge went on the attack.

It had happened within the blink of the eye. The Edge had struck hard and fast on the Sutherlands. The Edge had stuck the Sutherland's Float system wings and even the power connection by chance. That was few more Sutherlands that were no longer aerial combat and were not falling towards Miyake Island. Gino could not but whistle at the skills of the pilot of the machine frame that was in front of him. "All remaining troops stand down," Gino ordered as he know it would be pointless to send more soldiers against the skills of this pilot. When that order was given, all the remaining aerial Sutherland had fallen back into their regular positions before they attacked.

[Music End]

The Edge had also came to a halt as well it floated on the ref board in front of the Tristan quite a distance away. "It seems that our troops are no match for you in the air," Gino said over the Tristan's speaker. "I believe that it has more to do with them not ready for a mech like mine," Kitsune replied back threw the Edge's speaker. "I have to admit that I have never seen a Knightmare frame like yours before now," Gino said as he looked the Edge over from the monitors of the Tristan. Kitsune had a grin as he said, "Sorry, but this is Knightmare.""Then what is that mech you are piloting," Gino asked as he was now confused about what the Edge really was. The conversation that both Gino and Kitsune was being heard by the two Knight on Miyake Island, those on the Damocles and the remaining three Knights that have not fought yet. "This unit is known as an LFO," Kitsune answered back.

"An LFO. What is that," Gino asked as not only him, but everyone else was curious as well. "Sorry, but that is for me to know and for all those with the Britannia to keep on guessing," Kitsune replied back as he knew that his LFO would drive a few people that wanted to know a little crazy and that was entertainment in itself. "I guess that is no way that I can convince you to surrender nis there," Gino asked as he really wanted to fight Kitsune, but he had to asked anyway. "What do you think," Kitsune answered back as he got ready to battle the Tristan with the Edge. Gino smiled back at his answered as he readies the Tristen's weapon. The Tristen had in both of it hands was poles like weapons with two blades on each pole, which were known as MVS Polearms, but the Tristan ended up combining the two polearms into a staff like weapons that gave the appearance of a scythe weapon.

"Ritsu, I need you to run more of your scans of those MVS weapons that way you can ready that weapon," Kitsune said as he was no longer using the speaker. "Are you sure that you want to use that weapon," Ritsu asked to make sure on this decision. "Yes I am. I have a feeling that I will be facing the Knight of One pretty soon," Kitsune answered back as he knew that he was going to need to stand a chance. Kitsune was going to need every advantaged that he could get for that battle. Kitsune was sure that when he fought against the Bismarck was going to be a tough battle for him. But first thing first is that he needs to take care of the Knight of Three that was in front of him at this moment. Kitsune had the Edge put away the Boomerang knives and had deploy the bean saber once again, but this time it had deploy two beam sabers in each hand. Soon both the Tristan and the Edge were heading towards each other/

[Music Mobile Suit Gundam Wing OST: Who Will Burn Their Life Away]

The Tristan swung it scythe at the Edge, but the Edge managed to block the blade with the left beam saber and used the right beam saber to go in for a horizontal slash strike towards the Tristan's mid-section. Gino had the Tristan back away just in time to avoid the strike as it barely scratched the armor. The Edge went in for the attack as the Tristan had avoided his first slash, but Gino was not having that as he had the Tristan go in for a counterattack. Those that were watching from the aerial Sutherland's Fact sphere Open Sensor Camera were amazed at this fight between two fighters that were flying around in the sky which each mech having different weapons on hand.

[Music Change: Mobile Suit Gundam Wing OST: Swinging Target]

"This is the kind of fight that I want to find for a while now," Gino said as the Tristan had avoided a strike to the head from the Edge. The Tristan had followed up with a downward slash, but the Edge had speed boosted towards the side to avoid the slash and went in for another slash, but the Tristan was able to block the slash by readjust it hold on to its weapon with sliding the pole down to use the blade as shield to block the attack. The two were in a blade lock before the two back off at some distance. The two fighters both had smiles on their faces as they were enjoying this battle far to much and they did not want this fight to end any time soon. The two once again went into attacking each other as sparks were flying out as the MVS blades and bean saber had clashed over and over.

[Music Change Mobile Suit Gundam Iron-Blood Orphans OST: {01-Mobile Suit Gundam Iron-Blood Orphan~MS Gundam IBO (OST1)-[ZR]}] (To look for on Youtube)

The two had ended up locking blades once again and were spinning around in a circle as they try to break the blade lock in their favor. This fight was becoming a duel of skills to see who overcome the other. The two back off the stop the blade lock, but the Edge went in for a double slash attack that the Tristan had a hard time in blocking. With the block successful done with some difficulties from the Tristan, but then the Tristan started to spin its weapon in a circle as it dashed towards the Edge. To some with the speed of the Tristan was coming at and the way the weapon was being used, this would prove hard to block or dodge given if a pilot skills were not up to par. Lucky Kitsune skills were at least on some level of the Knights of the Round given all the time that when Kitsune had the Edge doing some upgrade maintenance, he was training in either against some of the top pilots in other mech suits or simulators to get his skills to what they are now.

Kitsune had turned off the ref board flight power that caused the Edge to drop in a falling style that allow the Edge to dodge the Tristan's attack. Kitsune had the Edge point the ref board up as it was falling. It was then the ref board flight power was turned back on and the Edge's boosters activated, and the Edge took off in a burst of speed that no one was ready for. The Edge was now above the Tristan within the blink of the eye. The Edge had once again had gone for a vertical drop, but this time Kitsune had decide to try something new of the fly. Kitsune had the Edge moved both beam sabers close together and almost gave the appearance of being a single beam saber with a thick laser blade. Gino saw what the Edge was doing and went into block the attack, but he had foregone with using the blade to black. Instead, he had used the pole of the weapon to take the block of the attack.

As the Edge came close to the Tristan, Kitsune saw how the Tristan was going to block his attack. Then at the last the last moment, Kitsune had suddenly turned the power on the beam sabers up that would cause the laser blade cutting power to increased. In the blink of the eye, the Edge was now in front of the Tristan. Both mechs had not move for a few seconds. The pole that the Tristan is holding was cut right by the right hand. That was not the only damaged that the Edge left. The right horn on the Tristan's head was sliced out and the right at the joint that connected the right arm to the torso. The right set of wings were also cut was because when Kitsune had turn the beam saber power up, it had increased the length of the laser beam.

[Music Ends]

The Tristen started to fall towards Miyake Island, but the Tristan was caught by another Knightmare frame that had shown up with another. The frame that caught the Tristan was Palomides that was piloted by the Knight of Four, Dorothea Ernst. Dorothea was accompanying Bismark, as he pilots the Galahad. The two knights were heading towards the battle as the Tristan and the Edge were fight. The moment that the two had seen the Tristan fall, Bismarck had ordered Dorothea to catch the Tristan and for the both of them to head back to the Damocles. Kitsune was not surprised by the appearance of the Knight of One since the radar system had alerted him to the new signals that had entered the ranged. "I must say it is not often that one person is able to beat a few Knights the way that you did in the time," Bismarck commented threw the Galahad's speaker. "What can I say. I just love a challenged," Kitsune replied as he looked towards Ritsu and he was having the Edge put away the beam sabers given that the battery source in the handle was almost out of power and needed to be recharge.

"I am going to give you this one chance to surround and give up the information on where the killer of Emperor Charles is at and I may give you a painless death," Bismarck order as he was readying his Galahad for battle. "Yea, that is not happening," Kitsune answered as he saw Ritsu nodded her head. It seems that Ritsu was able to finish going through the scan data and everything was ready with that weapon that Kitsune was going to need if he was going to fight the Knight of One. "Then you leave me with no other choice. I sentence you to death in the name of the late 98th Emperor of Holy Britannian Empire Charles Zi Britannia," Bismarck declare as he had the Galahad deploy it weapon. The weapon that the Galahad had deploy was a huge sword and this was no regular huge sword. This was a heavy class sword that was an MVS blade, and this heavy sword was called Excalibur.

The Excalibur weapon was the only one of its kind. The Galahad was refitted to be able to handle that heavy sword of that class. It was amazing that the Galahad frame was able to float in the air while it was welding a sword that long and mainstay balance. Kitsune was impressed by the sword with its purple color MVS blade as he was looking at it. "Before we fight. let me get something first. I will be right back," Kitsune said. "Go ahead, but I am keeping my eye on you," Bismarck replied as he was not sure if he should let Kitsune get what he wanted or not. Kitsune had rushed towards the ground and could not help but laugh at that Bismarck could only watch him with only one eye. Kitsune had headed towards one of the ammo bunkers. The bunker that Kitsune was heading for was a disguised weapon holder. As soon that the Edge come close, the disguised bunker opened up and what was inside was a katana type blade that is referred to as a nodachi.

During the battle that the Edge was fighting, Ritsu was sending signal information to that weapon holder. The information that was being sent to some machines that was with the blade. The machine received the information to make changes to the blade. With the Britannia's Knights deploying the MVS swords, the changes that were done would level the fight field. The Edge had grabbed the katana blade and soon rushed back into the sky right in front of the Galahad. "Before we fight, I believe that we should introduce ourselves," Kitsune said as the Edge got into its fighting position. "Very well. I am the Britannia's Knight of Round. The Knight of One, Bismarck Waldstein and this Knightmare frame I piloted is Galahad. This sword is known as Excalibur will be the end of you," Bismarck declare as he pointed the Excalibur right at the Edge. "My name is Kitsune, and I piloted what is known as the LFO Terminus Type-R505 Kai Custom Edge, but I called my mech the Edge. This nodachi blade that I weld is known as the Reiki. With this blade I will not be defeated by the like of you or your type of Britannia," Kitsune declared right back at Bismarck as he pointed the Reiki right at the Galahad. The two mechs flew still in the air, as they stare each other down.

[Music Gundam Build Fighters OST: Meijin ~ Nine Times the Passion of Ordinary Flamenco]

Then at a hidden signal that was given, the two mechs rushed at each other. Both mechs swung their swords and the blades met at a dead lock. Each mech was not given the other an inch whatsoever. Bismarck was surprised that the Reiki blade was able to hold up against his Excalibur with no problems. The reason for that is all because of the work that Ritsu was doing with the clashes of the MVS blades from the Club and the Tristan. Ritsu had a guess that Galahad's MVS was possible going to be a lot stronger and hope that her calculations were on point. Ristu was glad that the Reiki was able to match up with the Excalibur without any trouble. Not only with Ristu calculations with the Reiki work, but also the metal that the Reiki blade made with help as well.

The blade was made my different metal that was combine in certain ways that gave the blade certain properties that was perfect for battle. The blade was lightweight so there was no need to make any modification for the weight of the Edge being thrown off. The blade also had high strength factor that made it difficulty in breaking and is very useful in cutting power. The crazy thing about the Reiki's blade edge was that it would rarely need to be sharpen. It had taken trial and error before the Reiki blade was ready to be used in a fight.

Soon both mechs had back away from each other before they clashed again. The Galahad had came in with an overhead strike, but the Edge had parry it. The Edge had spun clockwise in hope of hitting the Galahad, but the Galahad had blocked it just in time. The two had backed away once again. The Edge had gone in and unleased a fury of slashes against the Galahad. Bismark tried his best to have the Galahad either dodge or block the assault from the Edge. Given the speed that the Edge was attacking, had given little chance for the Galahad to launch a counterattack. Bismarck finally backed the Galahad away to get away from the Edge for a bit before Bismarck decided to go on the attack. Bismarck pushed the Galahad thruster to almost the max as the Galahad was preparing for a wide slash strike.

The difference between the two mechs was the way that mechs were made and the weapons that was used. The Edge had the advantaged in speed, power, and agility with dodging or using the Reiki blade. The Galahad had power and a bit of speed. With the Excalibur being heavy, it was harder for the Galahad to move the blade like the Edge could. As the Galahad had came towards the Edge, that was then Kitsune had pulled off a crazy move that had the Edge avoid the attack that was coming. The Edge's ref board pointed downward and then the Edge changed direction going up right under the Galahad and came right behind the Galahad. Kitsune could not help but used the tip of the Reiki blade to tap the back of the Galahad's head. Bismarck had an angry grin at how this pilot was getting the best of him, but deep down he could not but feel some sort of enjoyment from this fight.

Schneizel and company could not believe their eyes that there was someone was able to head-to-head with the Knight of One. Suzaku was gashing his teeth and clutching his fist really hard. Suzaku was being fill with anger the more that he watched this battle that was happening. Suzaku could not stand the idea that the Knight of One being defeated by anyone but him got on his nerves. One of Suzaku's goals is beating the Knight of One and becoming the new Knight of One so that way he could make changes to Britannia, and he also be in charge of Area 11. When Suzaku had tried to fight Bismarck in person back on Kamine Island, Suzaku had felt a pressure that came out Bismarck that was causing Suzaku to run away just to live. Even the Geass command that Lelouch used on him was forcing him to live. How Suzaku hates the power of Geass that caused the death of Euphemia and prevent him from dying in battle. Suzaku continued to watch the battle as his anger continues to grow.

[Music Escape the Fate - There's No Sympathy for the Dead]

"You leave me with no choice, but for me to use my full strength," Bismarck said as he took a knife and cut the string that kept his left eye shewn shut. Bismarck was now using his Geass against Kitsune. "Be honor. I had never used my full strength since the fight I had with Marianne. She was the only person that could beat me," Bismarck added as he opened his left eye with his Geass now showing. Kitsune had the Edge go in for an attack from above in the blind spot of the Galahad, but the Galahad had moved out of the way. The Edge had turned on a dime and rushed the Galahad from the front.

Every time that the Edge had attacked, the Galahad had kept dodging at almost the last second. It did not take long for Kitsune to realized that Bismarck was using his Geass now. During the battle, Kitsune was having a great time in fight against Bismarck, but now that Bismarck was using his Geass it was leaving a bad taste in his mouth. This was to be a battle of skills between two pilots. This was the reason why Kitsune had his Time Sight being unusable with those googles that he was wearing. Kitsune want to be considered to be a warrior, and he knew that Bismarck was no longer a warrior at this moment.

The Galahad had launched itself right towards the Edge. Bismarck knew that the Edge had no chance of beating him now with him using his Geass. No matter how the Edge moved to either counter, block, or dodge Bismarck would have the Galahad come out on top no matter what. Kitsune had decided to pull one more trick out of his sleeves with the Edge. Kitsune had the tube missile launcher armed just for this moment. The Edge had suddenly launched two mini missiles that was heading for the Galahad. Bismarck shopped the Galahad and tried to block the incoming missiles the best he can. The missiles were about ten feet away before they exploded and release a smokescreen.

The smokescreen had blinded the Galahad's cameras and Bismarck was unable to see anything in front of the Galahad. Kitsune had some smokescreen missiles prepared the night before just in case if Bismarck was to use his Geass. Kitsune hated this type of underhand tactics, but it was the only way to counter Bismarck's Geass at this point and Kitsune did not have a Geass Canceller installed on the Edge. Since there was not enough time to build one. Kitsune was ready to get this fight over. He would have preferred to keep fighting longer, but Kitsune was starting to get tired.

The Edge rushed right into the smokescreen with his Reiki at the ready. The only thing that anyone heard if they were listening was the sound of metal being cut. The smokescreen disappeared and everyone watching could not believe their eyes at what they saw. The Galahad's arms and legs were cut off. There were slash marks all over the Galahad's body. The only thing that was untouched was the Galahad's Float system. The Edge was behind the Galahad with the Reiki blade right by the Float system. "You have been weighed, you have been measured, and you have been found wanting. Let this defeat be carved into your memories until your end of days," Kitsune said not only threw the Edge's speaker, but it was being broadcasted on all Britannia's signals. With that The Edge led with a slash strike right at the Float system in a flash. The Galahad was soon falling down fast, but lucky for Bismarck there was plenty of water that was going to break the Galahad's fall.

[Music End]

It seems like that as both the Edge and Galahad were fight in the sky, they were moving away from the Miyake Island from being under them and towards the sky over the ocean. Kitsune was weel of this fact when he struck at the Galahad's Float system. Kitsune had seen that some of the aerial Sutherlands that came with Gino were heading into rescue Bismarck. The Edge was soon just float in one spot in the sky. None of the Britannia's force had the gut to fight the Edge given that he had defeated Bismarck. In the cockpit of the Edge, Kitsune was breathing calmly as he sat in the seat. "Well, that was something," Kitsune said as he looked towards Ritsu. "Yes, it was. Are you okay right now," Ritsu asked as she knew that Kitsune must be exhausted from all the fighting he did.

"I'm good, a little sleepy at the moment. How does the Edge look," Kitsune replied as he let out a little yawn. "So far everything with the Edge is okay, but there are some parts on the Edge that needs to be looked at. From the data that was gather from the fighting, there are plenty of way to improve the Edge even farther," Ristu answered. Kitsune nodded at his head at this. Kitsune always knew that there was always room to improve the Edge. It was then that the two hear a beep sound. "It seems that we are being contacted," Ritsu said as she checks what was going on. Kitsune had taken his helmet off and placed it on the headrest. "Put it threw. Sound only," Kitsune said as he removed his google and unbuckles his seatbelt. Ritsu put the signal in sound only mode and Kitsune asked, "Who is this?"

"I am Prince Schneizel. I wanted to congratulate you on beating the Britannia's strongest Knightmare pilot, Mr. Kitsune," Schneizel said over the radio speaker. "I guess thank you for that. Now what do you want Prince of Snakes," Kitsune replied to no remorse in his attitude in talking to royalty. Kitsune had moved in front of his seat and removed a panel on the floor to reveal a hidden compartment. "Why the hostilities toward me. I just want some info on where my brother that you took is at," Schneizel said as he had signalled a few solider to lock on the Edge with the Damocles weapon. Schniezel was going to use the new weapon that Lloyd and Cecile had created. The weapon was sort of a EMP that would shut down any Knightmare frame for about thirty minutes or so. Schneizel was going to capture both the pilot and his machine. "Don't think that I am stupid, I know what you are really after. I also know that you are getting ready to blow me out of the sky at this very moment," Kitsune said as he started to push a few buttons that gave a soft beep when pushed.

When kitsune was finished, he places the panel back and got back into his seat "Oh my. I had no idea that I was talking to a mind reading now," Schneizel said acting shocked but not really shocked. Kanon whispered into Shneizel's ear that it will take less than five minutes before firing. "Save your bad acting for someone that care you snake," Kitsune replied back as he put his seatbelt back on then follow by the helmet without the googles. "Are you going to tell me where Lelouch is at or not," Schneizel said with seriousness in his voice. "Even if I did tell you there is no chance you getting to him now," Kitsune said with an all-knowing smile on his face. "I will ask you to surround yourself now or we will take you in the hard way," Schneizel said as by now he has no more patience. "I like to see you try," Kitsune replied as he disconnected the communications.

"Ritsu, I want you to release the limiter on the A-R-Drive," Kitsune said as he once again gripped the control sticks. "What are you plan on doing," Ritsu asked as she was what Kitsune had asked. "I am going to pull one more trick that the Edge can do," Kitsune answered as he moved the Edge in the directions of the Damocles. "What are you hoping to do," Ritsu asked as she looked towards Kitsune. "Two things to be honest. The first is to get away from them," Kitsune answered as he saw in his helmet that everything was ready. "What's the second," Ritsu asked with curiosity. "The second is make a few of them crap themselves. I wonder if any of them are wearing brown pants by chance.

"You have been watching that movie haven't you," Ritsu asked with a deadpan look on her face and Kitsune gave a Chessy grin as his answered. "What are you going to do," Ritsu asked. "I am going to use a special item that one man had created," Kitsune replied. "What did this man created," Ritsu asked as this peck her interest. "This man was able to create a time machine. I was able to get his help in make some of the parts and I have them place inside of the Edge. All I need to do give the device enough power and hace the Edge going at its top speed," Kitsune said with a grin that he could not remove by any chance.

[Music Back to the Future Theme Tune]

"Where are we going," Ristu asked and Kitsune replied, "Why, back to the past. Where else would we go." With that the Edge took off in a burst of speed as Kitsune had activated the boosters. The Edge was going faster and faster as it headed right towards the Damocles. Kitsune was watching the speed gage on the visor of his helmet and seen that he was almost at the proper speed and so he press one last button. This button would sent the power that was need to the device. The device was sonn powered up and began to do its thing. Outside of the Edge anyone watching would not believe their eyes. There were flashes of light that was coming from the back and heading towards the front. It was creating some sort of shield. Then in the sound of thunder, the Edge started to glow bright. In a flash of light the Edge was gone and leaving only a trail of fire that showed the path that the Edge was on. NO one watching had a clue that the Edge had just time traveled.

Code Geass: Back to The Past for a New Future

Chapter 8: The Trip Back to the Past

In the time period that Kitsune was at before the time travel

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

On the bridge of the Damocles, Schneizel and others were watching on the monitors that was showing the Edge. Schneizel was a little steam from his conversation with Kitsune. It really grits his teeth at how Kitsune was talking to him. Schneizel was going to have that man be tortured to the point of death, until he spills all that he knows before he is granted his death. "Your Highness, there is movement form the machine that we are targeting has begun to move," this was said by one of the soldiers that was on the bridge as that person was watching the monitor that was targeting the Edge. "Is it trying to break for an escape," Schneizel asked as he needed to know in case if he had to order some remaining aerial forces to keep the Edge busy until the Damocles could fire the new type EMP gun.

"No sir. It appears to be facing right towards the Damocles," the soldier respond. This drew confusing from Schneizel, but also from Cornelia, Kanon, Cecile, Lloyd, and Suzaku. This action had made no sense because if a pilot was trying to escape, they would go in any directions except for the direction of the enemy base of the sort. Schneizel shook off his confusion and said, "It seems like that pilot is out of his mind. He almost seems like that he is trying to go in for a suicide attack, but that will prove useless for him." Schneizel gave a motion with his hand for the image of the Edge to be bought up on the bigger screen monitor. As soon as the video image was up, they had all seen that the Edge was flying fast right towards the Damocles. Lloyd took a look at his tablet pad and quickly said, "Your Highness. That machine is somehow releasing even more energy." Everyone looked towards Lloyd and Suzaku replied, "What."

"Can you say how much more," Cornelia asked as this was serious problem. To her, the polit of the Edge could be using a weapon that could take down the Damocles with no issue and she was not going to have that. She would jump into one of the aerial Knightmare frames aboard to stop it from happening. "If I had to take a guess, I would say the energy is on par with a lightning strike, but it could be even higher than that," Lloyd answers as his answer had given the others grim thoughts on what the pilot could do with that type of energy at his fingertips. "Raise the Damocles' Blaze Luminous to their limits. I have no idea what that pilot is going to do, but I will not have him destroy the Damocles," Schneizel ordered as the Damocles' personnel including both Lloyd and Cecile went to get the Blaze Luminous system to the max levels.

Just as they were doing this, they then saw the Edge doing something weird. There were strange flashes of light that was coming from behind the Edge and going towards the front. The flashes of light started to form some sort of shield in the front of the Edge. Then the Edge disappeared in a blinding light, the only thing that everyone saw now was just a single straight line of fire in the air that was right where the board was at. Not long after the Edge disappeared, so the fire trail was gone. Everyone that was watching had a look on their face that would make good blackmail to use at a later date if possible. Their eyes were wide open, and their mouth dropped to the floor. And to a certain few people on the Damocles, they were so wishing that they were wearing brown pants. (AN: Sorry I could not resist)

After a few minutes of absolute silence, Cornelia asked the question that was on everyone's mind, "WHAT THE CRAP JUST HAPPENED?" "I will be completely honest. I have no idea or even a clue," Lloyd answered as he was still trying to figure out what exactly happened. Before anymore could be said, Suzaku looked at the screen and said as he pointed, "Look at that." Everyone once again looked at the monitor and saw what looked to a quickly growing orb that was nothing but pure white that appeared right where the Edge has disappeared. Before any orders could be given, everything was soon enveloped in that white orb.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

In the past to where Kitsune had time traveled to with the Edge

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

All Kitsune had seen for a moment was blinding light just for a second before the light was gone. The Edge was above the Miyake Island, but the only different right now was that there were no Britannia forces around. Kitsune had the Edge time travel back in the past about year back and give or take a few months at the least. "That was quite the experience," Kitsune said as he piloted the Edge into a hover mode position and had the Edge placed the Reiki blade into a slot on the right leg. This slot was made with hammer space tech that was made for holding the Reiki blade when not in use. "Yes, it was. It seems that your idea from getting away from the Britannia was successful," Ritsu replied as she was checking on the Edge's system to make sure that there was no damaged from the time travel. Everything checked out okay. "What is the plan now," Ritsu asked as she looked towards Kitsune. "Now I am going to see two people now. Luckly, I know where one person is. That person I am saving for last given that security that he has around him. It is going to be so much fun getting past that," Kitsune answered as a grin came on his face at the last part that he said.

Ritsu just shook her head and asked, "What about the second person?" "That one will be a bit tricky given that I don't have a clue where she is given who has her by their side most of the time. I believe that you may be able to find out if you heck into the Britannia military network," Kitsune replied as he started to move the Edge towards Miyake Island so he could land to take a little break. "I will see what I can do on that. What will you be doing in the meantime," Ritsu replied as she knew that the Edge need to cool down from that fight it had. "I am going to take care a little business that may prove useful for Lelouch," Kitsune answered as the Edge was cloesed to the ground. The Edge had jumped off the ref board and had the board split to place the two halves of the boards back where they were before.

With this done, Kitsune had transformed the Edge back into vehicle and climbed out of the cockpit. Kitsune had his gauntlet on, his backpack, and his phone was in his left hand. "How are going to help Lelouch with now," Ritsu asked as she was now connecting with one of the Britianna's network. This was possible given that phone Kitsune had was super advanced that allow the phone to connect to any signal no matter the distance or the system setup. "I guess you can say that I am going to give Lelouch and the others some resources that may prove useful when the time comes," Kitsune replied as he started to use his Time Sight as both the Space and Time stones were glowing. Kitsune was able to use the Time Sight with any of the stones to a whole another level. Right now, Kitsune was viewing different dimensions and timelines.

Kitsune soon found the dimension timeline that he was looking for and said, "You better get going now Ritsu. We both got things to do now." Ritsu nodded her head, and she soon disappeared from the phone. Kitsune picked up his phone and thought to himself, 'I hope that I can get the help needed to make the future a little better.' Kitsune soon open a blue portal with a green swirl before him. Before Kitsune entered the portal, he turned to look at the Edge and pulled out a little remote from his pocket. Kitsune had pressed a button, and the Edge suddenly disappeared from vision. The Edge was designed with a system known as a Mirage Colloid. This was like a sort of cloaking tech that had thing hidden.

With how the Edge's A-R-Drive was made and what it could do, it would be able to power the Mirage Colloid with no problems. Kitsune was not worried about anyone finding it because Kitsune was the only one who could pilot it due to the special security that was put in. Now that was taken care of, Kitsune turned to face the portal and entered it. The portal disappeared and now showing that nothing was ever there. All was quiet on the Miyake Island as it always been.

In India or is known as Area 21

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

In a hidden base that was located somewhere in India, Rakahata and her fellow Knightmare engineer had just called it a day and were headed towards their rooms to rest for the night. Rakahata had just entered her room and sat down on the couch that he had in her room as she smoked from her pipe. Then Rakahata started to glow with a mix of yellow and red for a few seconds and then it was gone. Rakahata almost dropped her pipe, but she was able to correct herself in a second. A smile came on her face and said, "It seems that it worked. Now time to get to work." With that said she soon turned off the light off and headed for bed for the night. She could not wait for the next day.

XXXXXXXXXX

The Next Day

XXXXXXXXXX

Rakahata with a few others as they were heading to a secret hanger location that was in a forest that a few even knew of it. It took a few hours for them to get there. Once they got there, Rakahata entered the code that would open the hanger doors that would allow the trucks in. When they entered the hanger and turned on the lights, it was there that everyone was seeing five Knightmare frames that only Rakahata had seen before. But to Rakahata surprised she saw that there was some big shipping container that she knew was not here before. She had taken a guess that this was probably something that Kitsune did. She walked over to the medium container that was on the side of the bigger ones. The medium container looked like it takes two people on both sides to carry it.

Rakahata opened the medium container and saw a folded up blue paper of some kind/ She grabbed the blue paper and unfolded it to see what it was. To her shock it was a blueprint. Rakahata could not stop the grin that was forming on her face. On the blueprints was a design of a power source and the information that was provided showed that this reactor was more powerful than anything that that used the Sakuradite as a a power source for the advanced Knightmare. With this Rakahata was going to make her Knightmare children even better and be on the whole another level than what that Earl of Pudding could even make. She also saw some of things that were in the container as well. She was going to look through all of it later back at her lab.

Rakahata knew that getting everything here was going to take a few trips. She had the Knightmare frames loaded up first along with the medium container before loading at least one of the few larger containers. Rakahata was going to have the time of her life with the gifts that Kitsune had left her with. On the ride back to her lab, Rakahata looked at some of the things that were in the container that she opens. Some things that she noticed was a list of different items that she figured she was going to need and there were some other blueprints for different weapons. In the container was the data that she had copied when she was with the Black Knights before she left with Kitsune to join the others.

She had asked Kitsune if it was possible for her to have the data to be brought back to the past and Kitsune had replied yes. There was even a notebook that was filled with different information for mechs. The information had things like changeable weapon pack and even a more moveable style of tank that would only need two people to pilot it. There was even some information and schematics on beam type weaponry. She was fascinated with the beam type swords and the beam type guns that took the form of that of either a rifle or a pistol. With everything that she was looking at, she started to get crazy ideas on how she could develop the children she made with these types of weapons could be a huge improvement.

Rakahata was thinking that she may get her younger sister involve with her future Knightmare development projects. Rakahata's sister went by the name Shanti Chawla, and she was at the age of ten years old. Rakahata had her sister in a private type schooling with some of the other children that are related to some of her other researchers. Rakahata get reports from time to time about Shanti and she has seen that her younger sister has almost the same personality as her and is very smart. It seems like Shanti is just as smart as Rakahata was at that age. Rakahata would have to see if Shanti had the same passion for Knightmares that Rakahata has. If Shanti had the passion for Knightmares, then it would seem like that Rakahata would have a sort of assistant to her and it would be two Chawla sisters that would be up against both Lloyd and Cecile in making the better Knightmare frame.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Later that day

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Earlier when they were able to get all the larger containers back to base, she and the other researchers had opened some of the larger containers to see what was inside and Rakahata was not disappointed at what she saw. In one container was filled with a strange type of metal that no one has ever seen before and there was a note as well. The note was from Kitsune, and it was explaining that the metal in the container was special type of metal that is almost impossible to make. The metal was to use as Knightmare frame armor. Kitsune had said in the note that the metal should only be used for the specially made Knightmare frames like the Guren, Zangetsu, Shen-Hu, and Shinkirou. The metal that was in the container was not enough to be used for the mass production frames like the Burai, the Gekka, and the Akatsuki.

Rakahata had to agree with that given with how much of the metal that she has on hand. Rakahata was going to make sure that this armor metal was going to be put to good use. The next few containers that were opened was filled with supplies of different materials that all the researchers were familiar with. Rakahata had a group of researchers go through this container and make a list of what all was there. The last few containers that were opened contains a bunch of equipment that would probably take a bit of time to look over. Rakahata and the other researchers were going to have the time of that lives with everything that were in the containers.

That was earlier and now Rakahata was going to see what Kitsune had left in the medium container back in her room. She had seen that there were more blueprints designs and a bunch of hard drives that she was going to need to see what was on them. She even found a brand-new laptop. Rakahata had opened the laptop and turned it on. Once the laptop was on, Rakahata seen that there were some videos that were on it. The first video file that was open show how to make the reactor that she had seen the blueprints for. The video had explained the step-by-step process on how to build it. Some of the other videos had contain the same information that she saw from the first video, but the difference was different sizes of the reactor.

Every video that she had seen on the laptop contains all the information that she was going to use on the Knightmare frame development projects and Rakahata was really going to have the time of her life. Rakahata was going to begin on the rework on both the Guren MKII and the Shen-Hu that were being worked on. Rakahata had the Knightmare frames that they picked up earlier be place in a storage and will be looked at a later time. Rakahata also had to make the medicine that Li Xingke was going to need to get his health of his body to better conditions. She also had the Geass Cancellers to be made for either for a person to use or to be installed on a Knightmare frame. Rakahata knew that she has lots to do and to get ready, but she was up for the challenge before her.

In China at the Vermillion Forbidden City

Li Xingke was sitting behind a desk as he was looking at paperwork. He was currently he was by himself, so no one was around when his body was starting to glow with a mix of yellow and red for a few seconds. Li Xingke took a few moments to get his bearing and seen that he was in a very familiar room. Li Xingke had a small grin on his face as he realized he was now back in the past. Li Xingke knew that he was going to be busy with his plans to make sure that Empress Tianzi was to be protected from the schemes of the Eunuchs. Luckly Li Xingke had the backing of few subordinates that are part of a factions that fiercely loyal to Empress Tianzi. Li Xingke was going to keep his promise to Tianzi to show her the world that is outside of the walls of the Forbidden City.

Li Xingke was going to make secret moves behind the back of the Eunuchs and make sure that everything was in place for when the Eunuchs were removed from power. Li Xingke hated the Eunuchs as they made Empress Tianzi nothing more than the head of a puppet government. Li Xingke was glad that he had talked with Lelouch before the time travel and discuss on what was going to be done. Lelouch had plan to go to China in secret and then he would use his Geass on Eunuchs to show the people of China how corrupt they are. Once the Eunuchs are exposed, the power would fall into the hands of the Empress, but given how Tianzi was at the age of 12, she was too young, and she did not have the knowledge that needed to be the ruler of China that Li Xingke believe that she could be.

Until the time that Tianzi would be the proper ruler, the power would possibly be in Li Xingke's hand given how he had the trust of those that believe that he would not misuse that power and have Tianzi there to learn. Li Xingke hopes that with the Eunuchs are out of the picture then it would be possible to give Tianzi the education that she was going to need. Li Xingke was going to make sure to use everything that he has to give the subport that Tianzi was going to need. In the meantime, Li Xingke had things to do, and he had to wait for the medicine that Rakahata was going to make for him. Li Xingke was also hoping that Rakahata was going to have the Shen-Hu ready for him to pilot once again.

In Japan or Area 11 at the Stadtfeld Manor in the Tokyo Settlement

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

This was one of the homes that belong to one of the Britannia's noble prestigious families known by the last name Stadtfeld. This manor served as the home to one Kallen Stadtfeld who was the heir to the family name. That is who everyone that is Britannia knows her by, but she also goes by the name Kallen Kozuki, one the Japanese freedom fighters that are fighting back against Britannia for taken Japan away from them seven years ago. What no one knows but a select few is that Kallen is half Britanna half Japanese. Her father is a Britanna nobleman that had married Kallen's mother years before the Britannia declare war on Japan. Right now, Kallen's father was in the Britannia homeland taking care of some business.

As for Kallen's mother, she serves as a maid in the manor that Kallen lives along with her stepmother that her father mad to married. Kallen did have an older brother, Naoto Kozuki. He had formed a group with some other Japanese to fight against Britannia, but was killed during a mission and his best friend Ohgi was now in charge of. Kallen had joined the group as she has a deep hate for Britannia. When Kallen is not fighting against Britannia as Kallen Kozuki, she was attended the Ashford Academy as Kallen Stadtfeld a sickly girl that gave the appearance of not being able to kill a fly. The was how Kallen had disguise herself in the Britannia's eyes.

The only reason that she was attending the academy in the first step was because of her brother wanted to get an education instead of fighting, but Kallen was too much of a hardhead. Kallen was not giving up on fighting for Japan. Losing Naoto had a negative impact of Kallen and caused her to hate Britannia even more. Kallen had just returned to the manor for the night after a meeting with Ohgi and the others. The group managed to get their hands on a Glasgow frame. It was in ruff condition and was missing parts. It was going to take some work to get the Glasgow, but it would be worth it in the end.

Kallen would be the one to pilot the Glasgow once they are able to get it working properly. Kallen could not wait to pilot the Glasgow and show the Britannia that Japen will never stop fighting. These were her thoughts as she walks through the front door and was greeted by the maids of the manor. Kallen nodded her head as she headed towards her room for the night. Kallen entered the door to her room and headed towards her dresser to change into her pajamas and headed off to bed to get some rest for the night. As she closed her eyes to sleep, she was drifting away as she dreams of better times and did not notice that was glowing a bit of both yellow and red for a few seconds.

A minute or two later the door was open by a maid and this maid was none other than Kallen's real mother. MS. Kozuki was a woman with long brown hair and blue eyes. She had fallen in love with Kallen's father when he was on a trip to Japan years before the Britannia declare war. The two of them were so happy together even after she given birth to two children. Mr. Stadtfeld was able to keep the three save during the Britannia fight against Japan. After Britannia had won, Mr. Stadtfeld was forced by his family to divorce Ms. Kozuki and married his now current wife, but there was a slight problem. Mrs. Stadtfeld was unable to have any children and thus left no heir for the Stadtfeld family.

Mr. Stadtfeld had discussed thing with Ms. Kozuki about him adopting both Kallen and Naoto into the Stadtfeld family. Ms. Kozuki had agreed to it because this would ensure that their children would be protected, and they would have benefits. Naoto had overheard this conversation, and he had said that he would stay with his mother and adopt Kallen. As a big brother, Naoto wanted to make sure that his little sister was safe no matter what. This was done without Kallen's consent. It was not until after when Naoto died, Ms. Kozuki had started to work as a maid at the manor that Kallen lived at. With the loss of her brother Kallen started to hate both Britannia and her mother.

Kallen had the thought that the only reason that her mother was working there was because Ms. Kozuki still had some feeling for Mr. Stadtfeld, but that was farer from the truth. The reason that Ms. Kozuki was working there was that she wanted to stay by her daughter's side no matter what. The problem that Ms. Kozuki had to face was a great deal of abuse that came from Mrs. Stadtfeld and the other maid, who were Britannians. At first Kallen tried to help her mother discreetly but at some point in time their relationship had become strained and Kallen started to stay away from her mother

Ms. Kozuki tried her best to stay strong, but with the abuse and the coldness that came from her daughter it was taking its toll on her and she started to use the drug Refrain. Refrain is an illegal and highly addictive psychotropic drug that induces the user into a hallucinatory flashback of past experiences. While the used was under the influence of the drug they would show temporary behavioral is exhibited and could be used as a truth serum of the sort. There is a side effects from when the drug was wears off that caused the user to be unable to speak for some time and soon becoming an invalid.

The possession of having Refrain is a lengthy prison sentence. The only known information about where Refrain were some rumors that shipments were being smuggled into Area 11 from the Chinese Federation. There were other rumors that it was the Holy Britannian Empire was the ones that had created the Refrain. It is not clear that if there is any truth to these rumors. The one thing that is certain, but hidden from the public is that there are some Britannia's nobles have gotten their hands on the Refrain and are disputing them to the both the Japanese and the honorary Britannia's. The reason behind that is so that the noble would make a profit. For the greed and corrupt it was all about the money that they could make on the suffering of the people.

In the timeline that Lelouch and the others came from, when Zero had formed the Black Knight, he had gone after all the Refrain operations and taken them down. It was during one of these take down operation, Kallen had found her mother among a few others all on Refrain. Kallen was fighting against paid off police officer that was piloting a frame known as Knightpolice while she was holding her mother in the Burai's hand. It was here that Kallen had learn the truth that her mother had stayed in the manor for her. After the operation, Ms. Kozuki was in the hospital for a while until she could be transfer to prison and serve a 20-year sentence. This would be the turning point in Kallen's life in her fight with the Black Knights against Britannia.

Ms. Kozuki had a small smile on her face as she saw the sleepy face of Kallen as she lays in her bed. Ms. Kozuki closed the door and headed to her room that she had slept in at the manor for years. As she reached the door to her room, she had seen the door was covered with graffiti. This was one of the many things that she has gone through while living in the Stadtfeld manor. With a sigh she has once again clean the door before entering the room. She changed her clothes and headed off to bed for the night. As she closed her eyes, she started to dream of happier times.

The Next Day in the Morning

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Kallen started to wake up and it took her a few minutes to realized that she was back in her room at the Stadtfeld manor. Kallen grabbed her phone and saw that date was four months before battle in Shinjuku. Kallen let a smile take place on her face once she seen that date. It was then that Kallen had realized one important fact now that she was back in the past. Kallen quickly got dress and left her room. She has quickly and quietly headed to the room where her mother was resting. Kallen had refused to let the chance to save her mother from the fate that Kallen had seen.

Kallen had reached the door and quickly enter the room and saw that mother had finished getting her maid outfit on. Before Ms. Kozuki could say anything, she was taken back as Kallen had suddenly hug her tight. Ms. Kozuki soon returned the hug and had a motherly smile on her face. Ms. Kozuki could barely remember the last time that both she and Kallen hug the last time. Both mother and daughter were hugging each other for what felt like hours for the two, but it was only a few minutes. The two had finally broke the hug and pulled away to look at each other in the eyes.

"Let me just say that I am so sorry for how I have been treating you and the reasons for it was very stupid," Kallen said as tears started to come from her eyes. MS. Kozuki was taken back once again with how Kallen was acting now with comparing to how she was acting yesterday. "I never realized that the only reason that you stayed her was for me. I am so sorry, and I love you mom. Please forgive me," Kallen added as she was pretty much crying by this point. Ms. Kozuki had no word to what Kallen said and there was one thing that Ms. Kozuki could do right now. Ms. Kozuki pulled Kallen in and gave her what would be concerted to be a motherly hug and said, "I love you too Kallen and I have already forgiven you."

Kallen returned the hug and cried on her mother shoulder. Ms. Kozuki patted the back on Kallen's back as she was still crying. It took a few minutes for Kallen to stop crying and get her thoughts collected. Once Kallen had finished collected herself, she said to her mother in a serious tone in her voice, "Mom, I promised that the thing between the two of us will get better and I will do everything that I can to get you away from the abuse you are going through here in the manor." Ms. Kozuki was once again taken back and started to wonder how many times that Kallen was going to surprised her. "There is no need for that," Ms. Kozuki replied back as she was touch by what Kallen said to her.

"No, I refused to let you go through that anymore and I will not let you suffer a minute longer if I can help it," Kallen said with a firm tone. Ms. Kozuki had small tears coming from eyes. "But I want you to promise me that you will never touch Refrain again," Kallen said, and Ms. Kozuki was taken back by what would be possible the fourth time so far. "How did you know," Ms. Kozuki asked with a look of shocked on her face. "How I know is not important right now but is that I cannot lose you. Please mom, don't use Refrain again," Kallen replied as she suddenly hugged her mother again and this time it was a bit tighter then the first hug that she gave her mother.

After the a few seconds, a small smile came on Ms. Kozuki formed on her face and replied back, "Okay. I will try, but it will be hard to fight it." Kallen thought about this and then she realized that there is two people that she knows that can help. The first would be RaKahata given her medical knowledge and the second is Lelouch if he uses his Geass on her mother. "I may know some people that could help, but it will take some time to get a hold of one of them, but I know that they can help," Kallen answered as she loosens the hold of the hug. "I must know. How did you know about the reason that I stayed here," Ms. Kozuki asked with a look of curious on her face. This question had taken Kallen back as there is no way that she could tell her mother the truth and time travel.

So Kallen had said, "I had a good friend to point it out to me and also explained as well." Ms. Kozuki nodded her head at that answered and it was then that two certain words that Kallen had just said caught her attention. Ms. Kozuki had grin that was only reserved for mothers and said, "So a good friend. This good friend would not happen to be a boy by chance?" The moment that Kallen heard this, the thoughts of Lelouch came to mind. "What gives you that idea," Kallen said quickly as a small blush formed. Ms. Kozuki saw the blush and raised her hand to her mouth to cover both a smile and to muffle a small chuckle.

Soon Ms. Kozuki moved her hand down and said with a smile, "I can't wait to meet the boy that managed to help my daughter." Kallen tried to say that it was not a boy that help her, but her mother was not believing it for a moment. Ms. Kozuki was having a good time with teasing her daughter about her crush. Kallen was smiling on the inside at seeing her mother smile. Soon the two was starting to plan to have a day that just the two of them will spend some mother-daughter time and try to reform the bond that they used to have long ago. Ms. Kozuki gave the box of Refrain to Kallen to get rid of and Kallen had promised to help her mother in any way that she could. Kallen was happy to be able to have her mother back in her life the way that it should be. Right now, Kallen need to get in contact with Lelouch and get his help for her mother.

At Night in Area 11 at the Government building

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Jeremiah had just entered his quarters for the night. He had a long day of getting some important paperwork that had to be done, and he was able to be finished it all. Jeremiah sat on his bed and released a sigh as he tries to relax his body a bit. His mind started to wonder back to the past when he worked as a guard at the Aries Imperial Villa for Marianne Vi Britannia. He took pride in his job as a guard at that time. It had saddened him when Marianne was assassinated in the Villa and the banishment of her two children to Japan years ago. When the chance to fight in the invasion of Japan, Jeremiah took it in the hope of finding Marianne's children and keeping them safe, but that hope was dash when it came out that they were killed by the Japanese.

Jeremiah had drowned himself in his work and became the leader of the pureblood faction that was station in the Toyko Settlement under Prince Clovis La Britannia. Jeremiah had not long ago made a woman by the name of Villetta Nu as his second in command. She was not a pure blood Britannia, but she was an excellent Knightmare pilot. He had respected her goal of gaining the title of Baroness. Any other thoughts that Jeremiah was going to had been paused as he started to glow with a mixed of red and yellow for a few seconds. Once the light had faded, Jeremiah got off the bed and headed over to the mirror.

As Jermiah looked at himself in the mirror, he took noticed that the orange piece of metal that was around his left eye was gone. Not only that he was not feeling any of the mechanic parts that was installed in his body that made him a cyborg. As Jeremiah was looking in the mirror, he had decided to try something really quick, and he saw that his left eye changed from orange to a light blue color with the upside down Geass logo appearing. It would seem like that the Geass Canceller that he had in his cyborg body was now in the body he had now. Jeremiah stopped using his Geass and let a grin form on his face.

'I am glad that I still had this Geass Canceller. I will prove most useful to my Lord's plan. I will have to wait for his call to meet up and discuss what needs to be done,' Jeremiah thought to himself. Jeremiah had to make sure that he acts like nothing is different around the others. Jeremiah would take a look at all those that are under in command in the Pureblood and see who could be most useful to help out his Lord. Jeremiah had a lot of work ahead of him, but he was looking forward to it. He must also remember to ask Lelouch if it would be possible to see Lady Nunnally. It has been a long time since he had seen her bright smile.

At the Sumeragi household at night

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

A young girl was just entering what looks to be a bedroom. This girl was Kaguya Sumeragi, a 14-year-old girl, that is the youngest head of the Sumeragi house that is part of a group that is known as The Six Houses of Kyoto. The Six Houses of Kyoto is a group of Japanese people that are funding the many rebellion groups all around Area 11. The heads of The Six Houses of Kyoto are completely unknown, but to a select few. Kaguya is also the representative a business known as the Sumeragi Concern that is a large conglomerate that is founded by the Sumeragi House. Even thought that she is youngest head of the Six Houses, she is highly influential among the Six Houses given that she possesses of a strong will.

Kaguya was heading towards bed after a long day of meeting from both the Six Houses and Sumeragi Concern. It had definitive worn her out and all she needed right now is sleep. She was about to lay down when she started to glow a mix of red and yellow for a few seconds. Once the glow had stopped, a smile had appeared on Kaguya's face. 'It seems that Kitsune was successful in in his attempt,' Kaguya thought as she started to get ready for bed. When the next day is to come, Kaguya had a lot of work to do to get the groundwork ready for when Lelouch makes his appearance as Zero.

At the Ashford household at night

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

A door was open quickly and then slammed really hard by a blond hair girl that was none other than Milly Ashford, the president of the student council of Ashford Academy and the granddaughter of the head both the Academy and the Ashford family. Right now, at this moment Milly was really upset and the caused would be her mother. Milly's mother was trying to set up an arranged marriage with one of the very influential Britannia nobles from a list that made and the reason for that is she was trying to raise the Ashford family name back to nobility. The Ashford family was high in the Britannia nobility in the Britannia homeland, but the Ashford had lost their title of nobility when Marianne Vi Britannia was assassinated.

Marianne Lamperouge was a big supporter of the Ashford Family for the creation of the Knightmare frame Ganymede. Marianne was the one and only pilot of the Ganymede was made. Marianne had used the Ganymede to beat the Knight of One, Bismarck Waldstein, and had not only being the Knight of Six, but gain the nickname Marianne the Flash. It would be some time after Marianne defeating Bismarck when the Emperor Charles had taken noticed of her and then Emperor had taken Marianne as one of his many wives. With the death of Marianne, the Ashford were shunned from the other nobility and left the Britannia homeland and headed off to Japan before the Britannia took over and renamed it Area 11.

Milly's mother was trying anything to get back to the light of nobility by using her daughter. Both Milly and her grandfather did not care about having the title of nobility. For Milly's grandfather, Ruben Ashford, he was well aware of how the Britannia nobility acted behind the closed door of society. Some Britannia nobilities were secretly schemers, sabotages, betrayers, and etc. This is the dark truth of Britannia nobility that no one ever seen or hears about. Ruben had known about the truths and seen if firsthand given the death of Marianne and the Ashford family being strip of the title of nobility. Ruben had no desire to be anywhere near that ever again and t seems like that his granddaughter had shared the same mind set as him.

Milly stormed over to her dresser and grabbed her night clothes from one of the drawers. Milly could not stand how her mother was scheming and planning just to gain the title of nobility. Both Milly and Ruben had nearly blow up at Milly's mother when she gave the idea of turning both Lelouch and Nunnally over to the Britannia's royal family in exchanged for the title of nobility when the two children had shown up at their manor when Brianna had claimed Japan as Area 11. No one else except for Milly and her grandfather said to Milly's mother to get her to drop that idea.

Milly did not like the idea of using her childhood friend in such a way. Once her clothes were changed, she went over to her bed and sat on it. Any other thoughts that she was going to have been stopped when she started to glow a mix of red and yellow for a bit before the glowing stopped. 'It seems like that I am back in my old room again, so I guess that it worked. Now to get things set up and see what chaos I can help unleased,' Milly thought as she had a little grin appear on her face as she took a look around her old room. She was going to do what she can to help Lelouch and hoped that he can returned the favor with dealing with her mother.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

At Ashford Academy at the building of the student council at night

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

At this building both Lelouch and Sayoko had finished tucking Nunnally in her bed for the night and closed the door to her room. Lelouch had taken the role of big brother very serious towards his sister Nunnally. Lelouch made sure to do everything that he could to make sure that his sister was taken care of. Lelouch hated the fact that his sister was unable to see and walk. Lelouch also hated how his father had cast the both of them away just for being weak in his eyes. Lelouch's stomach turned from how he had to walk through dead bodies as he carried his sister on his back 7 years ago. Lelouch swore that he would destroy Britannia and make the world more peaceful for his sister.

Sayoko was a maid that was hired by Ruben Ashford to help Lelouch with taking care of Nunnally when Lelouch was busy with anything school related or other things. Sayoko was taken in by the kind nature Nunnally when they first met. Sayoko was shocked by kindness, gentleness, and caring that Nunnally had shown. Sayoko had also seen how much Lelouch cared for his sister. It was not long before Sayoko had sworn to make sure that these two were safe no matter what. Sayoko was given more information on the history of Lelouch and Nunnally in secret. Sayoko had seen from time to time on how much Lelouch was overprotective of his sister, but she understood that Nunnally was very important to him.

Both Lelouch and Sayoko was in the kitchen to get a quick drink before heading to bed for the night. It was then that the both of them started to glow a mix of red and yellow for a few minutes before the glowing stopped but Lelouch was glowing a little bit longer than Sayoko. Sayoko took noticed that Lelouch's body was much different now. To her it seems like Lelouch's body had change to what it was in the future before they traveled back to the past. It was then that Sayoko had seen Lelouch leave the room and started to follow him to see what he what he was up to, but she had an idea of where he was going. She had seen the door to Nunnally's room and looked inside to see Lelouch standing by Nunnally's bed.

Lelouch was looking at the sleeping face of his sister Nunnally. Ever since Suzaku had fired the FLEIJA and destroyed most of the Toyko Settlement and killed Nunnally in the blast zone. Lelouch felt so lost without knowing Nunnally being alive. Lelouch was at his lowest point until Kallen had pulled him back to his usual self and helped him as they talked during their training for the month. As Lelouch stared at Nunnally's face, it was then that Lelouch had sworn that he would make sure that Nunnally was safe and that no one in his family would use Nunnally against him. Lelouch exited the room and gave a hidden signal to Sayoko to follow him to another room to make sure that they could talk to make sure the Nunnally would not wake up from her sleep.

Both Lelouch and Sayoko had entered one of the meeting rooms in the student council building. Lelouch sat in one of chairs as Sayoko had closed the door behind them. Sayoko walked over to stand in front of Lelouch. Sayoko had taken a look over Lelouch. Sayoko had seen that Lelouch had his eyes closed and had his right hand in a fist like motion that rested on his right cheek. It seems like that Lelouch was in deep thought at this moment. Then Lelouch opened his eyes and looked towards Sayoko. "Sayoko, can I count on you to make sure that Nunnally is safe," Lelouch asked in a serious voice.

"I will do everything I can to make sure that she is safe and protected from all enemies that you are going to have Master Lelouch. I, Sayoko Shinozaki, the 37th successor of the Shinozaki School of Martial Arts will do everything to help both you and Lady Nunnally. This I swear to you right now Master Lelouch," Sayoko replied as she gave Lelouch what would consider to be the bow of a maid as she grabbed both side of the lower part of her maid outfit to spread apart and nod her head down. "I thank you for that Sayoko. I will leave the safe of Nunnally to you as I get my plans for my rebellion against my father," Lelouch said as he said the last two words with a bit of venom in his voice.

Right now, Lelouch had so much to get ready in the four months before the battle in Shinjuku is to happen. Lelouch would have to get in contract with both Rakahata and Li Xingke that are overseas to get the ball rolling on their part. He would also meet up with both Kallen and Milly given that he will meet them at the academy. That was also that he needs to get in touch with both Jeremiah and Kaguya to get a plan formed around the help that they can give him. There was the matter of C.C., but right now Lelouch was not sure where she was at right now given that she was being held by his brother Clovis at this moment. Lelouch had dismissed Sayoko of the night and the two headed off to bed of the night. Once the morning had come, Lelouch would begin his planning to fight against his father and make sure that Nunnally was well protected with Sayoko.

A green hair girl was wearing a white color outfit that was strangely made straight jacket that kept her arms and legs from moving too much and also kept her talking. This was C.C. as she had gotten used to this condition she was in for months since that little bastard V.V. had handed her over to Clovis as a sick joke for him to see her suffer. Given that C.C. was immoral and could heal from any damaged that was done to her body. C.C. had been alive for centuries that she had lost count of how old she really was. Her only wish was to find a person that she would form a contract with so they could take her code to finally end her immorality. As C.C. sat alone in her cell that she was in she started to glow a mix of red and yellow for a few minutes before it stopped. 'This is a sight that I thought I would need see again. If I ever see Kitsune again, I will make him pain for sending back to this point in time and make me go through this all over again,' C.C. thought with a angry look in her eyes.

Meanwhile at a Britannia base in Area 17 that is formally known as Indonesia at night

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

This is a secured Britannia base with more soldiers on duty given that there are two children that are from the royal Britannia family member there. One of the children was a girl that has long bright pink hair that was looking out the window of the room that she was going to sleep in for the night. This girl is Euphemia Li Britannia who is the younger sister to Cornelia Li Britannia. The thing about Euphemia is that she is not really involved in the military like her sister was. The only thing that she wants is for the world to be peaceful and end all this bloodshed.

She wanted to voice her concerns to her father, but her sister had to force her from doing so just to keep Euphemia from being banished like both Lelouch and Nunnally was. Cornelia hated that she was not able to do anything to keep them safe. Out of all siblings only Cornelia and Euphemia had truly care for them. There was both Schneizel and Clovis, but to the Li Britannia sister it probably has more to do with playing chess. Euphemia took a breath and headed toward her bed to get some sleep. She and her sister were going to be here for a few more days before they headed toward the next military operation is to begin at what is known as the Middle East.

As Euphemia had turned off the light with only the light from the moon shining through the window given the only light in the room. Euphemia had just reached her bed and was about to grab the sheets. "I have to say. You are a hard woman to track down Princess Euphemia," said a voice that came from a man that Euphemia had never heard before. Euphemia quickly turned around a saw a man with hood over his head with only his mouth show because of the moon light. The man was sitting in a chair that was on the other side of the room from her with a table that was in front of him. Euphemia was about to scream for help, before he heard the man said, "Please do not scream Princess. I am only here to help you in a way." "Help me. How are you going to do that and who are you," Euphemia asked as she was a bit curious of this man.

The man had a smile formed on his face as he was grabbing something from the inside of his jacket. The man had pulled out a folder that had what looked like a musically note logo of some kind that was on the top along with what looks like a memory stick that was place on top of the folder. "My name is Kitsune. I am here to talk to you about a special plan that I made that I call Project Lorelei," Said the now identify man known as Kitsune as his eyes glowed green a bit as he looks towards Euphemia.

Code Geass: Back to The Past for a New Future

Chapter 9: Four Months to get Ready

It was the next day after both Lelouch and Sayoko had returned back to the past. Lelouch was preparing breakfast for him including both Nunnally and Sayoko. While Lelouch was cooking, Sayoko was helping Nunnally to get ready for the day. Both Lelouch and Sayoko had agreed to act as normal as possible around Nunnally to not tip her off to anything strange going on. As Lelouch was cooking, he had hope that both Kallen and Milly had returned as well and can't wait to meet up. Before the group traveled back in time, Lelouch had set something up to make sure that everyone had returned to the same time as well. All Lelouch had to do was to say a sentence that is a question to anyone in the group and then that person would give the proper answer.

Lelouch had finished making breakfast and place it on table. Sayoko was pushing the wheelchair that Nunnally was in as they entered the room. "Good morning Big Brother," Nunnally said with a happy tone in her voice with a smile on her face. Lelouch took a moment to stare at Nunnally and her smile. Lelouch could not remember the last time that he saw this. "Good morning Nunnally," Lelouch replied with a small smile on his face. Sayoko could tell how different Lelouch was compared to last night when they talk to how is with Nunnally now. The three sat around the table to enjoy their breakfast. Both Lelouch and Sayoko took turns with helping Nunnally with her food. Even though Nunnally tried to say that she could do it herself, but the small mess that she made said otherwise.

After they had finished eating, Lelouch was cleaning Nunnally's face as Sayoko was cleaning the dishes. Sayoko was going to bring Nunnally to her class for the day as Lelouch went to get ready for his class. Lelouch went to get change into his academy uniform and found that there was a problem. It seems like that his uniform was a little tight on his body. It was then Lelouch had realized that with that month long training he did, and his body was completely different from before. Lelouch had a bit more muscle and he was going to need a whole new set of uniforms for him to wear. It was a good thing that the student council building had spare uniforms in storage. It did not take long for Lelouch to find the uniform that he needed and headed off to his class.

As Lelouch was walking to his morning class, and he noticed something that was happening round him. He took noticed that all the girls that he cross paths with as were acting a bit strange from what he remembered. The reason that unknown to Lelouch is that girls could tell that something was different about Lelouch at first glance as they saw him. This was some strange ability that all females have that could tell right away. Lelouch enter the classroom and headed to seat. As Lelouch sat down, he had started to act the same way that he did in class. While Lelouch was wait for class to begin, he took noticed of all the students around him and tried to familiarize himself with their faces.

It was then that the one person that he was hoping to see had come into the classroom. It was a girl that had red hair that he all too familiar with. This was Kallen Stadtfeld the heir the one of the Britannia noble houses that was known as Stadtfeld, but she was really know as Kallen Kozuki one of the top Knightmare pilots for the Black Knight and his Q1. Lelouch hoped that she was back as well. If she was then the both of them with the others could get to work. But deep down Lelouch was hoping to spend some time with the girl that he loves before thing get too crazy for them. Lelouch took noticed that Kallen was acting like she was sick and weak to all those around her in order to bring any attention to her.

Lelouch managed to fool those around him to make sure that no one had noticed that he was looking right at Kallen as she was talking to some girls that looked to be her friends here at the academy. As Lelouch looked on, he could not help but compare this Kallen Stadtfeld to the Kallen Kozuki. Kallen could pass for an impressive actress given the performance that she is giving everyone around here. If Lelouch did not know the truth, he would have believed that both Kallen Stadtfeld and Kallen Kozuki were two different people. Another thing that Lelouch was looking at almost all the time was Kallen's hair style. The hair style of Kallen Stadtfeld was combed down that gave the looked of not a single hair out of place. The style of Kallen Kozuki was that on a bit on the messes side that she kept in a spike type fashion. If Lelouch was honest with himself, he was not sure which of the two hair styles he liked Kallen with the most.

Soon class began with their morning lesson and Lelouch had forced himself from looking at Kallen to the teacher. After a few classes had pass for the day, it soon became a break period for the students to rest a bit before their finish the rest of their classes for the day. Lelouch had seen Kallen left the room by herself and soon followed her with drawing any attention form the other students. Lelouch soon seen that Kallen was heading to a location where barely anyone goes to. Soon the two were outside and were heading behind one of the buildings that did not have any windows on the side. Lelouch had seen Kallen stopped right inside the shade that was provide by the shadow of the building that was to her right side.

"Is there anything that I can help you with," Kallen asked in a weaky type tone in her voice. "I was just making sure that you are okay given that I had heard that you miss days at the academy given how you been sick. I am only concern as a member of the student council," Lelouch replied as he had made up that excuse off the top of his head. "I see. I just needed to get away for a few moments to get a bit peace and quiet," Kallen said as she turns to face Lelouch. "Okay then I was just wanting to make sure. I will take my leave, but before I go. Can I ask you a quick question. You don't have to answer it," Lelouch said as he saw Kallen nodded her head. Lelouch took a quick breath in and released it before asking, "Where does all things start form and ends at almost the same time?"

Lelouch could almost see the mask of Kallen Stadtfeld faded away and the face of Kallen Kozuki appeared with a grin on her face as she replied, "Zero." The moment that Lelouch heard the word he had let a grin appeared on his face as he said, "Glad to see that you have arrived back in time as well, Q1." The moment Kallen heard the title that Lelouch gave her as Zero, she rushed over to Lelouch and hugged him tightly. "I am so happy to see that you are the Lelouch that I know," Kallen said with her voice muffed with her face in Lelouch's shoulder. Lelouch returned the hug as well and he could not help but take in the sweet smell that was coming from Kallen. The hug least a few minutes before their broke the hug and took a one step away from each other as they looked at each other in the eyes.

"Did anyone else came back as well," Kallen asked in the usual voice that she always talked to Lelouch when he was Zero. "Just Sayoko given that she was with me last night when we returned," Lelouch answered. "I guess we would have to see if Milly had returned as well," Kallen said and Lelouch replied back, "Yes, and after that I will have to get in contact with the others. Lucky I was given a phone number for both Jeremiah and Sayoko and an email address for Rakshata." It was then a thought had occurred to Kallen now that she had met up with Lelouch. "Lelouch, do you still have your Geass," Kallen asked with a bit of hope in her voice as she hoped that he does. "I have not tried to use it yet, but may I ask you shy," Lelouch replied as he was curious why she would asked this.

"When I woke up in my bed in the morning, the first thing that I did was to seek out my mother. We talked to patch things up between us and I had to get her to stop using Refrain. I am hoping that if you were to use your Geass on her to help get her to not use Refrain," Kallen answered. When Lelouch heard Kallen's answered, he could see that Kallen did not want to go through with her mother being in the hospital before going off to jail for twenty years. Lelouch could not help but feel a bit jealous of the relationship that Kallen and her mother have. Lelouch and his mother had the same relationship before he learned the truth of her character. "I will need test it to make sure that I do have my Geass and that it is still the same and not a different type of Geass. If everything works out, then I will use it on your mother," Lelouch replied as she saw Kallen shed a few tears before she threw herself at Lelouch in another hug, but only tighter than before.

Lelouch could hear the Kallen saying thank you over and over again that was muffed by his clothing. Lelouch hugged Kallen and rubbed her back a bit to help clam her down. It was a few minutes before Kallen had settled down and had pulled away from Lelouch. "I am sorry about that," Kallen said as she took a handkerchief to wipe away her remining tears from her face. It did not take long for Kallen to make herself look the same way before started to cry. "What is the plan so far," Kallen asked as she need to know what she needed to do. "Right now, I need to see if everyone one had returned as well and then we will gather who we need and go from there," Lelouch answered as he gave this a bit thought. Kallen nodded her head in understanding and then Lelouch said, "For now we will get back to acting the usually way in our remaining classes."

"I agree, but please try to keep your eyes from wondering over to me in classes from now on," Kallen said with a bit of teasing in her voice as she tried to make a cute pose towards Lelouch and was glad to see him blushed. Lelouch was shocked that Kallen had realized that he was looking at her a bit threw the day. Lelouch could not help but say, "How could I not given that my Q1 is quite a beauty in my eyes." Now it was Kallen's turned to blush as well. It was a minute or two before their blushes had disappeared. Lelouch cough softly and said in a gentleman's tone in her voice, "Miss Stadtfeld, I would like to invite you to drink some tea with me in private at the student council building after our last class for the day." Kallen answered back in a proper noble woman tone in her voice, "I accept your invitation, Mr. Lamperouge." The two shared a bit of a laugh before the two lefts to head towards their next class.

After the last class was over of the day at Ashford Academy

When the two had entered their next classes, Lelouch had send a quick message to Sayoko if could she prepared a room for both him and Kallen to have a bit of privacy. Once the classes were over for the day, both Lelouch and Kallen headed over to the student council building. Along the way both of them had seen a one of their teachers from their class and it was then that Lelouch did a quick check with his Geass and seen that not only does he, but it work just like it always did so there weas no difference with his power of Geass. Kallen had seen the results and was glad that Lelouch would be able to help her mother when given the chance.

Once their got to the building, Sayoko greeted them and led the two to the room that she had prepared for them. While the two were going to be talking, Sayoko was going to be busy with Nunnally by teaching her the art of paper folding. Sayoko had a smile on her face at the thought of teaching Nunnally that once again. Lelouch closed the door and made sure that the door was locked to make sure that no one would enter the room that both him and Kallen was using. Both Lelouch and Kallen sat down in the two chairs that was set up by a table that had tea and snacks for them to enjoy. After a few minutes, Lelouch started by saying, "You know ever since last night when I was sent back. I was laying in my bed thinking and I came to realization." "What realization did you come to," Kallen asked as she was curious as she took a sip of her tea.

"When I started my fight against the Britannia that cast both me and Nunnally away. The only things that I wanted was to find out the truth and to make the world peaceful for Nunnally to be able to see and enjoy living in. It was last night that I realized that the world was never going to be peaceful for long. It made the plans that I have made would be ruined," Lelouch replied with a little anger in his voice. "What plan did you make," Kallen asked as she was worried with how Lelouch was getting angry and was getting ready to calm down Lelouch any way that she could. "I was going to get the whole world hate me like some sort of ultimate villain in their eyes. I was probably going to have someone be the hero and kill me. This would open the way for peace to come in," Lelouch said as he calmed back down.

Kallen was able to hold back a grasp as this was exactly what Kitsune had told her. Kallen hated that she knew certain truths that Lelouch did not know about. "Even if my death was going to led to peace, there was something that I did not consider," Lelouch said as he grabbed his cup of tea and took a sip from it. "What was that," Kallen asked as she was now less worried with Lelouch calming down. "That there are threats in this world that are not going to allow peace to happened. My brother Schneizel in one of them, but who is to say that there other Britannia's that are the same or any other nations that are in the world. Even if there was a person that was sitting on the throne to usher in peace, that person could not be able to handle the problem of those that would threaten that peace that everyone wants," Lelouch replied with a stern look in his eyes.

"What are you plan on doing about it then," Kallen asked as she needed to know. She was going to support Lelouch to the best of her abilities. "The answer to that is simple. I will show the world that the Britannian Empire is not invincible, and I will take the throne from my father. I will changed Britannia in the proper way. I will bring peace to this world, and I will face those that will be against it. I hope that I can count on you to be by my side," Lelouch answered with determination in his voice. Kallen could see the fire in his eyes, and it did not take long for her to come to answer for Lelouch. "I, Kallen Stadtfeld Kozuki, will stand by your side as long as you fight for the peace that this world needs for the future. I swear this to you as your Q1," Kallen replied to Lelouch with almost the same determination in her voice as Lelouch just showed.

"I thank you for that Kallen and I will swear that I will do everything that I can to make sure that you don't regret your choice you made," Lelouch said as he was touch by what Kallen just said. As the two each started to take sips of their tea, a thought had come to Kallen's mind and she ended up asking, "Hey Lelouch, I just had a thought, and I want to run it by you." "What is it," Lelouch answered as he was curious what Kallen was going to say. "If you were to become Emperor and I was by chance to beat the Knight of One, Bismarck, then what would exactly happen with me if you had to take a guess," Kallen asked as she saw Lelouch was in deep thought.

"If I am correct in my guess, then I as the Emperor I would have to grant you the title as the Knight of One," Lelouch answered as he sure that he remembers from his few lessons when growing up at the Aries Imperial Villa. "Are there any perks that come with that by chance," Kallen asked as she hoped that her thought was correct with the next thing that Lelouch was going to say. "If I was to gift you the Knight of One on public broadcast. then as Emperor, I would ask you if there were anything that you want as services for your time in helping me," Lelouch replied as he was wondering what Kallen was up to with the information that he gave her. "So, if I was to become the Knight of One, then it would be possible for me to ask for Japan to be free once again," Kallen replied as she had a grin appeared on her face as she was talking.

The moment that Lelouch heard this, the gears were moving in his head. This was the same thing that Suzaku was aiming for, but there was a biggest different between what Suzaku was doing and the idea that Kallen was giving. Suzaku was aiming by showing results and going to change things in Britannia from the inside. The problem with that is there was no way that it would be possible for Suzaku to do it given have corrupted Britannia was. With the idea that Kallen given it was a different route to change Area 11 back to Japan again and with Kallen being half Japanese and the Knight of One then there was no choice for anyone to go along with it. Lelouch could not help but let a grin formed on his face as this idea from Kallen could work in ways that he did not realize before.

"You would be correct. I would definitely grant you such a reward for all your hard work," Lelouch replied back as he saw Kallen's grin change from a knowing grin to a grin that was showing both a drive and purpose. 'That is just what I wanted to hear,' Kallen thought. To Kallen if she was given that Knight of One title and free Japan, then this would be a two-hit attack on Suzaku. All she needs to do now was to improve both her fighting skills and her Knightmare piloting skills to their limits. She was so going to beat Suzaku with everything that she has. "You know I believe that the title Knight of One would not be a proper title for you," Lelouch said as he broke Kallen from her thoughts.

"What title would be proper for me then," Kallen asked as she was really curious what Lelouch was going to said to her. "I believe that the title Knight of Zero would be more fitting for you. Don't you think," Lelouch replied as be brought his teacup to his mouth and took a sip from it. Kallen had a look of surprised on her face at the title that Lelouch had mentioned. It took a few seconds before Kallen came back to her senses and said with a smile like grin, "I believe that would be a much better title." The two began talking for a while as they enjoyed their tea and snacks. The things that they talked about was what future plans that they need to look at, what is to be done so far, and other things that were important.

Once they finished their tea, Kallen had to leave and return home to spend a bit of time with her mother. Lelouch had promised Kallen that we will her mother on his next day off from school to visit her. Before the two left the room, Kallen gave Lelouch a kiss right on the lips that took Lelouch by surprised by the sudden action, Lelouch could help but enjoy the kiss. The kiss lasted for a minute before Kallen pulled away. Both of them were a little red in the face. Lelouch had walked Kallen to the entrance to the student council building. Soon Kallen was on her way home, as Lelouch went to look for both Sayoko and Nunnally.

As Lelouch was headed off to look for Nunnally and Sayoko, he had ended up finding Milly that was carrying some paperwork in her arms. "How is it going today for you President," Lelouch greeted. Milly turned around to see Lelouch and replied, "Good day to you as well Lulu." Lelouch had to stop the twitch of his eyebrow at the nickname that Shirley had called him by and then Milly as a playful nature to tease him. "I see that you have quite the amount of paperwork in your arms President," Lelouch said as he was hoping to ask Milly a certain question. "Yea I had some paperwork that needed my attention," Milly replied as she made a gesture with her arms that were holding the paperwork.

Lelouch nodded his head and said, "I will leave it to you then. But before I go, I want to ask you a quick question." "What is your question Lulu," Milly replied with a smile. "Where does all things start from and ends at almost the same time," Lelouch asked as he was holding back a grin until he hears the answer. "That is simple. It is zero," Milly answered with a bigger smile and Lelouch let his grin appeared on his face. "Good to see that you also made it back safely as well President," Lelouch said. "You as well Vice President Zero. Who else made it back so far," Milly asked as she could not help but make a new nickname title for Lelouch. "The only ones that I know so far beside me is Sayoko, Kallen, and now you. I still have to get in contract with the others," Lelouch replied as he saw Milly nodded her head.

"I really need to take care of this paperwork, but before I go, I have something to give you," Milly said as she handed over two thumb drives to Lelouch. "What are on these," Lelouch asked as he took the thumb drives from her. "On one the thumb drives contain the information on the Knightmare factory that the Ashford still owns. The other hold all the information on the Knightmare frame Ganymede that was created by the Ashford's and piloted by your mother. I figure that once you met up with Rakshata, she could make good use of the Knightmare data," Milly answered as getting that information on those thumb drives took a bit of time and hoping on not getting caught.

Lelouch nodded in his head in agreement, and he placed the two thumb drives in his pocket. Lelouch was going to look over the information on the Knightmare factory later tonight. With that out of the way, both Lelouch and Milly went to do their own things. It did not take long of Lelouch to find both Sayoko and Nunnally. Lelouch watched in silence as Sayoko was showing Nunnally how to fold paper by behind the girl and guiding Nunnally's hands with her own. Sayoko was also giving instructions to Nunnally by talking softly by her ear. Lelouch could see that Nunnally was enjoying herself by the smile that she had on her face. Seeing that smile of Nunnally brought a calm feeling to Lelouch's mind.

Lelouch made his present known to the two in the room. Lelouch had talking to his little sister a bit before he excused himself as he said that he had some business to take care of and he would be back for dinner. As Lelouch left the room, he was glad that Sayoko was one of the few people that he could truly trust to keep Nunnally safe for him. Lelouch entered his room and headed over to his desk chair. As Lelouch sat down, he had pulled out two items from his desk. The first item was his laptop that he turned on, and the second was his cellphone. Lelouch started to type in a phone number, and he started to think that he should get a second cellphone before he takes the roll as Zero.

As he was hearing the ringing sound on the cellphone, Lelouch opened up his email and started to prepare two emails. Soon the ringing sound stop, and a voice was heard on the other end of the call. "Hello, this is Jeremiah," said the man and Lelouch had a small grin on his face. "Where does all things start from and ends at almost the same time," Lelouch asked as he was typing the same question on both emails. "Zero. It is good to hear for you Master Lelouch," Jeremiah answered. "How are things on your end," Lelouch asked as he sent the emails out and relaxed in the chair that he was sitting in. "I am making sure that no one sees that nothing is out of the original, but I have made progressed in what you asked," Jeremiah replied.

"That's good to hear. Have you check to see if you still have your Geass Canceller," Lelouch asked. "Yes, I did. It seems like when Kitsune had sent us back I have returned to my original body without the robotic implants that I had, and it seems like the Geass Canceller is now in my regular eye so no one will be drawn attention to the metal that I had around my eye," Jermiah answered as he was enjoying his body now before being a cyborg that to save his life. "That's good. I check earlier and I still have my Geass as well. With you having your Geass Canceller that will help out when needed," Lelouch said as he thought about Mao, Rolo, and even his own fathers Geass users. "Have you check to see who else made it back so far," Jeremiah asked.

"So far besides me and you, there is Sayoko, Kallen and Milly. I just sent two emails that are going to Rakshata and Li Xingke. The only two people left to check is Kaguya and C.C.," Lelouch replied. "I have checked all the connections that I have without raising any suspicious from the higher ranks on the where abouts of C.C. and I was not able to find anything. I believe the only ones that would know right now would be Prince Clovis, General Bartley, and those in their inner circle," Jeremiah said as there one of the few things that he had done earlier that day while he was working. "I guess that only time we will find C.C. will be that day in Shinjuku," Lelouch replied with a grim look on his face as he had a little hope to find C.C. earlier to prevent that battle from happening, but now he will have to make plan to try to save as many lives as he can.

"What is your plan to do right now if I may ask," Jeremiah asked as he was curious. "Right now, I want to find out who all made it back first, then we will begin the work and planning from there since we have four months before I take the stage as Zero to the world," Lelouch answered. "I will do all that I can to provide the help that you need," Jeremiah said. "Thank you, Jeremiah. Once I confirm that everyone besides C.C. is back, I will gather those that are here in Japan for a meeting during the weekend. I know that Kitsune had informed me that he had sent us somethings that will help us in one of the rooms that is in the service tunnels under the Academy," Lelouch replied. "Speaking about meeting up. Do you think that it would be possible for me to meet Lady Nunnally," Jeremiah asked.

Lelouch was quiet for a few seconds before he replied, "I believe that it would be possible." "I thank you for that Master Lelouch," Jermiah said. Both Jeremiah and Lelouch talked for a few more minutes before they ended the call since they both had work to do. As soon Lelouch ended the call with Jeremiah, he had processed to call Kaguya. As soon as Kaguya answered, Lelouch had asked her the same question that he had asked before and she had given the correct answer. The two had talked for a bit before they ended the call. Lelouch had check his email and seen that he had two emails in his inbox. After reading the emails, Lelouch had confirm that both Rakshata and Li Xingke have returned as well. Lelouch sat back in his chair and closed his eye as he begun to think back at what Kitsune was talking to him some time before the travel back in time.

~FLASHBACK ON MIYAKE ISLAND DURING THE MONTH TRAINING~

The day was coming to end and the training for the day was just about finished. Kitsune had pulled Lelouch away from the others so they could talk in private. "What did you need to talk to me about," Lelouch asked as he was wondering what Kitsune needed to talk to him about. "I want to talk to you about Nunnally," Kitsune answered as he saw the mood in Lelouch shift. "What about Nunnally," Lelouch asked since if there was anything that involved Nunnally. "I believe that Nunnally sight maybe the caused of your father using his Geass on Nunnally. When you and the others are back in the past and if by chance that Jeremiah had his Geass Canceller, you may want to try it on Nunnally," Kitsune replied as she saw Lelouch had the look of shock on his face. It had never occurred to Lelouch about why Nunnally's eye had remained shut for the longest time.

"It is your choice if you want to help Nunally with her sight. I just thought that I let you know on my opinion," Kitsune said. "Why would tell me about this," Lelouch asked as he was curious. "The reason is if you have decided to use the Geass Canceller on Nunally for her to regain her sight, that there is a chance she may also regain memories as well. This is your decision for you to think on. If by chance that you decided for Nunnally to regain her sight, you should be prepared for the aftermath if there is a change in Nunnally's mood," Kitsune replied.

Lelouch nodded his head in understanding. "Just food for thought. I know that you have done everything to keep Nunnally safe and unaware of what was going on around her for the longest time. Just know that you can't keep Nunnally the same forever. You never know Nunnally may surprise you," Kitsune added as he started to head off to do his own thing. It was a few seconds before Lelouch headed off to where the others were at. Lelouch had a lot of things to think about with what Kitsune had said to him. There was a lot of things that he had to consider.

~FLASHBACK ENDS~

Right now, Lelouch was still trying to make up his mind on if he should have Jeremiah use his Geass Canceller on Nunnally. Lelouch may have to ask either Kallen or Milly on their thoughts about this. After a few minutes of relaxing in his chair, Lelouch opened his eyes and began to type up of message on an email that was going to Rakshata. Lelouch took the time to informed her that Milly had given him the data on the Ganymede frame, and he would see about making a trip to hand the thumb drive over to her and may talk to her about somethings. Once Lelouch sent the email, he had gotten up to leave the room and went to get dinner started for the night. Lelouch wanted to spend as much time as he could with Nunnally before he begins his fight with his father and Britannian.

A few days passed. The weekend at Ashford Academy

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

The weekend had come to the students at the academy. To most of the students they had plans to hang out with either their family or friends as they relaxed. To other students they had either club meeting, projects, or other school related things to do. Over at the Student Council Building there was a bit of activity that was going on without anyone knowing. Milly had given the members of the student council some time off to do what they needed to do. Shirley went to the Academy swimming pool to get in some swimming in for the day. Nina was in the science room with her laptop to work on some secret project on it. For Rivalz was off to get some hours at his part time job.

The only ones in the building were Milly, Lelouch, and Sayoko. As for Nunnally she was in her room taking a nap. The three were waiting for three other people to join them. Kallen was going to be entering the Academy threw the front entrance. Jeremiah and Kaguya were going to be entering the Academy by hidden entrance that way no one would see both Britianna military officer and Japanese woman on the Academy grounds at the same time. It would not take long for the other three to show up. Once all six had gather, they had headed down to the service tunnel and went to room that Lelouch had told Kitsune to send what supplies that he wanted to send for them.

They had reached the room and when they opened the door, they were shocked by what they saw. The room that they entered was setup as a sort of warehouse for a time before it was cleaned out and was not longer in uses. The once empty warehouse room was now fill with some creates. As they approached the creates, they had noticed that some of the creates had their names on it. So, everyone went to some of the creates that was for them and opened them. The first create that Lelouch opened up was quite the sight for sore eyes for him. It was Lelouch's outfit of Zero. Lelouch had inspected the outfit and seen that it was custom made, and it was a better quality then the one that he had been wearing before.

The Zero mask was made with material that made the mask light in hands but was very hard to break apart unless it is hit with great amount of force behind the strike. As for the clothes, it was made for him to be able to move quicker in and hard to be either cut or stab with a knife. There was even a bulletproof type clothing that could be worn under the Zero outfit. Lelouch had seen that there was a small briefcase with the Zero outfit and had decided to open it. Inside the briefcase was what looked to be some tools and equipment that would prove useful for Lelouch. There was even a gun that was black pistol in the briefcase. The pistol was a black stainless M1911A1. As for the other items in the briefcase, Lelouch would have to take some time to look over them and see what they were.

Kallen opened her create as seen that it contains a bunch of stuff. The one item that caught her attention was a customize wig that she had asked Kitsune to get for her. Given she her short hair style and its red color, it would not take long for the Britannia military to find her even if she changes how she does her hair between her Britannia life and her preferred style. There were also some other things that she was going to need for later. As for create for Sayoko, it contains kunoichi ninja style outfit that had the color style of the Black Knights which included some purple color tinted visor. There were also some high-grade kunai blades, a ninjato blade, and there was also a paper that contained information on making smoke bombs.

As for the create that Jeremiah opened up, he was quite shocked by what was inside. It was clothing that anyone seeing it would consider it to be knightly and the colors of it was Black Knights style. This outfit was very similar to those that the Knights of Rounds would wear. To Jeremiah this outfit would be sign to all that he was considered to be role to his Master Lelouch and his sister when the time comes to show everyone who Lelouch truly was. Jeremiah knew that he would not be able to wear this outfit for quite some time, but he was looking forwarded to the day that he would wear it proudly. There was even knight sword blade that was also in the create with the outfit.

When everyone finished looking in the creates that were address to them, they got to looking at some of the other creates. Some of the bigger create contains a huge amount money that was inside. Some of that money come from the winnings that came from the casinos during the month. As for where the rest of the money came from no one had idea and figured that Kitsune was the one responsible of it. If they ever see Kitsune again, they will have to ask him about it. The other creates contained some supplies that would help out when the time comes. There were even a few cellphones that when they checked one out and seen that that the contracts had numbers that would call the other cellphones.

Everyone there had decided to leave most of the stuff in the warehouse for the time being and had also decided to take a few of the things like some of the money, the cellphones, and a few other things. Everyone then returned to the Student Council Building and began to talk a bit and try to get a plan made for the battle to be happening in Shinjuku. Lelouch also gave Jeremiah a description of Mao and to be on a look out for. Lelouch given the idea of using Miyake Island as a either a fallback position, a secret base, or other things that would help them out. The others had agreed with the idea and knew that it would take time to get everything set up on the island without letting the Britannia's military knowing, but with Jeremiah's help that would be a big help.

Lelouch had informed them that he will be heading to China to meet up with Rakshata to discuss something and to hand the thumb drive data to her. Milly said that once she has some free time, she will go to Ashford Knightmare factory and make sure that everything there was operational. Jeremiah added that he could make sure that Knightmare frame supplies were sent to a warehouse, where Milly or Lelouch could had someone get the supplies to bring to the asked Jeremiah if he get her some Knightmare parts so she could get her Glasgow to make sure that it was battle ready for Shinjuku. Jeremiah had to admit that the piloting skills that Kallen shown the fight time had left quite the impression on he that she was able to fight off some fifth-generation frames with an outdated fourth generation frame that was being held together with duct tape. Jeremiah agrees to get Kallen the parts since he was curious on how well Kallen with fight the Glasgow being fixed properly.

Sayoko had mention that while Nunnally was in school, she would take some time to set up a safe room of the sort just in case she had to get Nunnally to a safe place until they could get Nunnally to a safe location. Lelouch had agreed to that idea and decided to use some of the money to get some security tech to make sure that Nunnally was safe. Kaguya added that if anything was to happen, then Sayoko was free to bring Nunnally to her place and in the worst case imagine get Nunnally out of Japan. Lelouch had agree to it since he refused to go through again when he made his returned as Zero a year after the Failed Black Rebellion. Kaguya said that she will try to do what she can to help out. With everything being said for the day Kallen, Milly, and Kaguya all left, while Lelouch, Sayoko and Jeremiah had remained in the meeting room.

Jeremiah was going to be meeting with Nunnally for the first time in years before the banishment of the Lamperouge siblings. Sayoko left the meeting room to see if Nunnally was up from her nap. Jeremiah was a bit nervous, but both him and Lelouch had gone over a cover story that way they were on the same page. It was decided that they would not use the Geass Canceller on Nunnally yet given that she was meeting Jeremiah, and they did not want her to be overland with too much at once in case if her memories were altered by the Emperor. It did not take long until Sayoko came in and was wheeling in Nunnally, who was yawning a bit. Both Lelouch and Jeremiah smiled as they seen what would be considered to be cute moment from the blind girl before them.

"How was your nap, Nunnally," Lelouch asked as he walked over to his sister. "It was nice. I did not realize how tried I was. I needed that nap," Nunally answered as she felt her brother's hands on hers. Nunally gave her brother a kindhearted smile. As Lelouch saw this smile, it had hurt him on the inside as he remember the truth of their parents and their actions towards them. It took everything in Lelouch had to make sure that those feeling did not show while he was touching Nunnally's hand. "I have a special guest for you Nunnally," Lelouch said with a kind tone in his voice to his sister. "Who is that brother," Nunnally asked with a look of curiously on her face as she tilted her head to the side.

With this display that Nunnally had showed, it had caused the three that were in the room wishing that they had a camera to capture this moment. Lelouch looked over to Jeremiah and gave a nod to him. Jeremiah walked over to Nunnally and said, "Greeting Lady Nunnally. My name is Jeremiah Gottwald. I don't now know if you remember me, but I served as one of the guards at the Aries Imperial Villa. You used to call me Jerry whenever you saw me." "I believe that I do remember you," Nunnally replied with a smile. "You do not know how much of a weight it is on my mind to see both you and Master Lelouch alive and well after all this time," Jeremiah said with the tone of happiness in his voice.

Lelouch pushed Nunnally's wheelchair to the table as Sayoko was preparing tea for all four of them to drink. "How have you been doing," Nunnally asked. Jeremiah went on with explaining all that happened with him since their banishment. Jeremiah did add that he joined the Britannia military in the hopes of finding them and keeping them safe with the best of his abilities. Nunnally did asked how he found them and Jeremiah answered that if was just by chance. Jeremiah said that he had crossed paths with Lelouch one day on his day off and meet with Lelouch in a less pubic area since there would be less people to hear their conversation. Jeremiah had decided to keep secret of where they are at. Jeremiah did say that he believes that someone or possible a group in the Britannia homeland that may be part of the noble houses or even the royal family may be responsible for the assassination on their mother.

Jeremiah added that he had tried to find the real killers when he got the chances, but he was not able to get any leads. Nunnally had told Jeremiah what all that happened during the years. As he was hearing her tales, there was points in her story that made no sense to him that had happened during the attack on Japan. One looks on Lelouch's face told Jeremiah that he would ask about. The look on Lelouch face showed anger and pain flashed in his eyes. As their talk was coming to an end, Jeremiah informed Nunnally that he had given Lelouch and Sayoko his cellphone number in case they needed to get a hold of him, and he would try to to come see Nunnally when he had the time. Nunnally had a bright smile on her face and was looking forwarded to their next meeting.

Sayoko had wheeled Nunally out of the room and leaving to two men in the room. Jeremiah looked towards Lelouch and Lelouch relaxed a breath as he begun to tell Jeremiah the truth that of what happened with them. It made Jeremiah sick to his stomach as he was imaging it. Jeremiah had come to the conclusion that Master Lelouch was truly strong to go through all that. Jeremiah also informed Lelouch that he would put together a list of people that could prove most helpful to him and Lelouch agreed to look it over when he gets the list from Jeremiah. After a few more minutes of talking, Jeremiah took his turned and left of the day. Lelouch headed to his room to get changed into some outgoing clothes. Lelouch had informed both Nunally and Sayoko that he had some business to take care of and he would be back later this evening.

Outside the Stadtfeld Manor

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Lelouch had arrival outside the gates of the Stadtfeld manor. The reason that Lelouch was here was simply enough. He was here at the request of Q1, Kallen Kozuki Stadtfeld. LElouch was going to be using his Geass to help Mrs. Kozuki with her addiction to the Refrain drug. If by chance that Lelouch runs across of Kallen's stepmother, Mrs. Stadtfeld, then he may use his Geass on her as well. Lelouch remembers the first time that he met her of the sort. He had to bring her some paperwork from the student council that she had to look over. The tone that Mrs. Stadtfeld had given was the same attitude that all Britannia nobles have. It did not take long for Lelouch to figure out that Mrs. Stadtfeld was part of the reason that Mrs. Kozuki to be driven to use Refrain.

Lelouch had rung the bell system that was set up by the gate. "Who is it," said a woman's voice over the box. "My name is Lelouch Lamperouge. I am a classmate of Kallen Stadtfeld. She is expecting me," Lelouch replied back. It was about five minutes before the gates opened. Lelouch figured that what he said had to be checked out first. Lelouch walked through the gate and headed right to the manor. Just as Lelouch reached the door, the door opened up and out stepped out was none other than Kallen. "I thank you for accepting my invitation," Kallen said all lady like manner with a smile on her face. "And I thank you for your invitation," Lelouch said in a nobleman manner. Lelouch knew that Kallen hated having to be lady like this and prefer how she always acted.

Kallen moved aside to let Lelouch enter the threw the door to enter the manor. Once the two are inside the manor, Kallen was leading Lelouch to the room where her real mother was in. As the two was walking down the hallway to their destination, one of the doors opened and coming out of the room was a woman dress in noble woman fashion type clothing and blonde hair. This woman was none other than Mrs. Stadtfeld and Kallen's stepmother. She looks just as Lelouch remembers when he met her the first time. "Who is this man, daughter," Mrs. Stadtfeld asked as both Lelouch and Kallen could basely hear the noble lady tone in her voice and the clear disdain in her voice as she said daughter.

"This is a classmate of mine from Ashford Academy," Kallen answered trying to keep the hate that she has for this woman before her out of her voice. "I see. Do you happened to come from a noble family," Mrs. Stadtfeld replied as she looked from Kallen to Lelouch. "Yes, I am," Lelouch answered as he was already forming a plan in his head. "What is your family name," Mrs. Stadtfeld asked as she wanted to find out how high on the chain of the Britannia noble household that Lelouch was at. Kallen was about to step in before she caught the grin that was on Lelouch's face. Suddenly Geass appeared in Lelouch's eyes and Lelouch said, "I am Lelouch Vi Britannia, and you will follow my orders." The outside of iris in Mrs. Stadtfeld's eyes had a red ring like form take form.

"You will follow any orders that either me or Kallen gives you when you hear the phase black king with a crimson queen by his side you will entered this state. When you hear the phase silence is darken you will exit this state and acted like normal while following the orders that you are given," Lelouch said as he gives his Geass order to Mrs. Stadtfeld. Lelouch knew that by doing this will help Kallen out if she needs it. Lelouch saw Mrs. Stadtfeld nodded her head and Lelouch went ahead and stopped his Geass. The red iris in Mrs. Stadtfeld's eyes disappeared and before she could say anything, Kallen said, "Black king with a crimson queen by his side." The red iris had appeared once again and Mrs. Stadtfeld replied, "What can I do for you?" Kallen had a smirk on her face and gave the order by saying, "You will stop with your bullying to Mrs. Kozuki, and you will also keep your nose out of my business and that includes Lelouch. You will return to what you what doing and forget that you have met Lelouch just now for today. Nodded your head if you understand my orders that I have given."

Mrs. Stadtfeld nodded her head and Kallen said, "Silence is darken." The red iris disappeared, and Mrs. Stadtfeld went back into the room that she exited from. Both Kallen and Lelouch saw the door closed and started to walk once again to their destination. As they walked, Lelouch could see a smile on Kallen's face, and he figured that she was happy with what he just did. It was not long before the two had reached the room where Mrs. Kozuki was at. Kallen opened the door and entered the room with Lelouch following her in. "Greetings Mrs. Kallen," Mrs. Kozuki said in a manner of that of a maid as she saw Kallen come in the room with Lelouch following behind her. "You don't have to act like that mom. This is Lelouch. He is a friend, and he also knows the truth about me Japanese. He does not treat me any differently," Kallen said to her mother.

As soon as Mrs. Kozuki heard this, she started to relax in a simple manner. "It is nice to meet you Mr. Lelouch," Mrs. Kozuki said with a happy tone in her voice since this is the first time that she has ever met a boy that her daughter was with. "It's nice to meet you as well Mrs. Kozuki," Lelouch replied back. It was not long before all three of them had sat down around the table that was in the room. "You are the boy that helped my daughter," Mrs. Kozuki said as she remembered from what she was able to get out of her daughter from their talk a few days ago. "You can say something like that," Lelouch somewhat answered as he knows the real truth and from what Kallen had told him on what she said to her mother. "I have asked Lelouch to come today to help you deal with your addiction to Refrain," Kallen said with a serious tone in her voice. Both Kallen and Lelouch saw Mrs. Kozuki flinch at the mention of Refrain. "How will he do that," Mrs. Kozuki asked as she was not sure how this man with her daughter was going to do it.

"All I need you to do is just to look me in the eyes first," Lelouch said, and it was not too long for Mrs. Kozuki to look Lelouch in the eyes. Once Lelouch saw that Mrs. Kozuki was looking at his eyes, he had processed to use his Geass and said, "I, Lelouch Vi Britannia, command you to follow my orders that I give you." The iris in Mrs. Kozuki's eyes had red appeared just like what happened with Mrs. Stadtfeld just a while ago. "Whenever you get the feeling or the urge in using Refrain at any time. You will resist the temptation of Refrain with the strength that you have. The same strength that gave you the determination to stay close to your daughter in this household. You will also not allow the other maids in the Stadtfeld get to you and not let them make you feel weak ever again," Lelouch said as he was given his Geass command order to Mrs. Kozuki. He had heard from Kallen with all the things that her mother had gone threw in this household and he had decided help Mrs. Kozuki even more than just the Refrain addiction.

With his Geass order given, Lelouch had stopped his Geass and the red around the iris in the eyes of Mrs. Kozuki disappeared. "It is all done," Lelouch said as he knew that Mrs. Kozuki would not realize that he had used Geass on her. "How will I know that it had worked," Mrs. Kozuki asked and Kallen had pulled out an item that was in her pocket and placed it on the table before her mother. The item in question was an injector and this was not just any injector. This was the same injector that Mrs. Kozuki had used to inject Refrain into herself. Mrs. Kozuki had reached for the injector, but just as her hand was halfway to the injector, her hand had stopped in placed. Mrs. Kozuki's hand was shaking in place before her hand went from a grabbing motion to a fist and pulled her hand back. "Please get rid of that," Mrs. Kouki said as she closed her eyes to not look at the injector anymore.

Kallen grabbed the injector and place it back in her pocket. Kallen was going to get rid of the injector later, but she did make sure that if she was caught with the injector, she would not be in trouble. The reason being is that the injector not filled with Refrain, but instead sugar water with a color dye mixed in. Kallen had to make her mother believe that injector was filled with Refrain. Kallen was glad that the Geass command that Lelouch had placed on her mother had worked perfectly. With that out of the way, Lelouch had informed the two women before him that he has to returned to Ashford Academy to get dinner ready for his sister. Mrs. Kozuki had said her goodbyes and her thanks to Lelouch as her daughter was going to see Lelouch out. Mrs. Kozuki saw the smile that was on her daughters face as she was looking at Lelouch.

Mrs. Kozuki had a motherly smile on her face as she was glad that her daughter had found someone that she had feeling towards. Mrs. Kozuki was going to tease her daughter to no end about her crush on Lelouch whenever the two get to spend some mother-daughter time together. As Kallen and Lelouch reached the front door, Kallen looked around to make sure that no one was around and seen it was just the two of them at this moment. Just as they reached the door, Kallen grabbed Lelouch and turned him around to face her. Lelouch was taken back with the suddenly turned by Kallen and he was about to say something but was unable to given by what Kallen had done next. Kallen had planted her lips right on Lelouch's lip in a kiss with her feeling.

At first Lelouch was taken back by Kallen's action but soon returned kiss with his feeling. As the two were kissing, Lelouch had wrapped his arms around Kallen in a hug and pulled her closed to him. The two was into the kiss that they did not notice that someone had noticed the two kissing and took a camera out to take a picture of this moment. Once the person had taken the picture, the person had left the area to let the two have their moment together. Both Kallen and Lelouch finally separated from each other. The two were so into their kiss they had no idea on how long that they were kissing given that the two were out of breath. The two said their goodbyes to each other.

Kallen left to talk to her mother and saw that her mother was in the hallway. "He is quite the person, Mrs. Kallen," Mrs. Kozuki said with a smile. "Yes, he is," Kallen replied with a small gentle smile on her face. "I have to know Mrs. Kallen. If you could rate it between 1 to 10, then how good was that kiss you was giving him," Mrs. Kozuki asked with a teasing smile forming on her face. The moment that Kallen heard what her mother asked her, Kallen's face turned red as her hair. "Mother! How could you asked that and how do you even know that I kissed him," Kallen replied back as she was holding back from yelling at her mother. "I was going to head to my room and came across the two of you kissing by the front door. I must admit that I never thought that I would see my tomboy of a daughter kissing a boy in a romantic way," Mrs. Kozuki answered as she left out the part of taking a picture of them kissing. Mrs. Kozuki was going to save that picture to tease them later or show it to any grandchildren that Kallen and Lelouch may have in the future. Mrs. Kozuki continues to tease her daughter and Kallen tried to deal with her teasing mother about her feeling for Lelouch.

XXXXXXXXXXXX

In India at the lab base that Rakshata was at

XXXXXXXXXXXX

It was in the late in the afternoon as Rakshata was going over the computer data of the Guren MK-II, as she was seeing on how she could use what Kitsune had provided her. Rakshata had looked over some of the note that was in the containers in the last few days. There was a lot of information that had blown Rakshata's mind, and the ideas were just flowing threw her just one after another. Rakshata had made sure to write down all the ideas that she had come up with for later. Rakshata had taken some time and looked at some metal to be used as armor that was in the larger containers, and she was quite shocked by what see learned on the metal. The metal was very unique when it was both studied and tested.

The metal properties were several times stronger than some of the best Knightmare frame armor and it was also heat-resistance. The metal was also electrically non-conductive, and it was undetectable to any types of radar systems that are being used. If Rakshata was being honest with herself. she was going to need some help with doing some serious upgrades to her children. Rakshata was not going to need just any help but help that had serious knowledge in robotic technology that was used in making robot type suits like the Knightmare frames. The level of the knowledge that she needed had to be at least on the same level as her. Suddenly the door to the room that she was in was opened and she turned around in her chair to see who had entered.

Once she seen who had entered the room, there was nine people that had enter and she has not ever seen them before. The first person that seen was an old man that was quite strange in his appearance. He was wearing a blue shirt that was underneath a white lab coat. He had what looks to be metal leg braces that appears to be robotic appearance to them. He had a cane in his right hand, strange looking eyeglasses that he was wearing, and his left arm was prosthetic in nature with only three fingers like things that served like a hand. The next man was dress like a scientist, but there were three things that stood out on this man. The first was his hair that was mushroom type style. The next was the long scar on his left cheek. The last thing was long nose.

The third man was dress in a different manner of a scientist. He had prosthetic nose and spiked grey hair that was slick to the back on the top of his hair. The fourth man was dressed like any other scientist she seen before. This man was a bit on the large size in his appearance. He had a receding hairline happening on the top of his head and thin dark mustache that stand straight out on each end. The fifth man was wearing a grey shirt under his white lab coat. This was tall in nature, and he was also bald, but he gave an appearance that he was fighter along with being a scientist. As for the sixth man, Rakshata was taken back because the first five man were wearing lab type coats, and he was pink shirt with green palm trees on it along with some dark sunglasses.

The seventh man was a man with medium black hair and was wearing glassed in front of his black color eyes. His outfit was strange to her as she had never seen anything like what he was wearing before. He was wearing black boots with metal on the bottom on the boots. His pants white on the outer most of the pants and blue on the inner. There was a green diamond right where his heart would be with brown being shown on the top of the diamond and everything under the diamond was white. He was wearing a black jacket over the shirt and had brown color gloves on his hands. The seven people that Rakshata had seen were men and the last two people to enter the room were females.

The first female to enter the room was wearing red jacket that had a strange logo of some kind on the front left side of the jacket. She had light brown hair and her eye were crystal teal in color. The last person was young looking girl that was wearing a mechanic outfit. She had black hair that was in a twin ponytail that was behind her head with the ends in front of her by the shoulder-crest area of the body. "Who are you people and how did all of you got in here," Rakshata asked as she need answered to who these people were. "I am sorry for us showing up out of nowhere, but the reason that we are here is because a young-looking man that goes by the name Kitsune had brought us here. As for who are, I liked to be known as Dr. J," said the man with the prosthetic left arm. "I am known as Professor G," the man with the mushroom hair replied. "The name to call me is Doktor S," replied the man with the prosthetic nose.

"I am known as Instructor H," said the man with thin mustache. "I am Master O," the bald man replied. "You can call me Howard," replied the man wearing the pink shirt with the sound of being laid back in his voice. "My name is Ivan Vashti," answered the black hair glasses wearing man. "Erica Simmons is my name and it is nice to meet another female scientist in the field of robotic," replied the light brown hair woman. "My name is Yuuri Sano and it so nice to meet you. I just want to let you know that you are the reason that I wanted to work on Knightmare frames," said the black hair girl. "Nice to meet all of you, but you said that Kitsune is how you all got her, but this raises the question. Why did Kitsune bring all of you here," Rakshata asked, and the man known as Dr. J stepped forward.

"The reason from what Kitsune said is that he believes that you might need the help and know how in helping in understanding and how to property use some the information that he had left you with. You see that most of the information that you may have looked over, some of us had a hand in making," Dr. J answered as everyone except for Yuuri had nodded their heads. "We are not the only people that Kitsune had brought here," Professor G said and Rakshata had a look of curiousity on her face. "Who else did Kitsune brought here," Rakshata asked. "From what I understander from Kitsune as he explained what was going on and his reasons. He had bought not only scientist with knowledge with robotic, engineer, and mechanic, but he had also brought some skilled pilots that can help out," Professor G explained.

"What do you mean by skilled pilots," Rakshata asked as she was trying to figure out what Kitsune was doing. "Kitsune had mentioned that the Black Knights only had a few pilots that could be considered to be Aces, but are currently outnumbered by the Britannia's skilled pilots that are either in the Knights of Round or groups," Master O answered in a serious tone in his voice, Rakshata had to think about this for a moment and realized that what Master O said about the skilled pilots in the Black Knights was low. Before the Failed Black Rebellion, there was only six at that time and they were Kallen, Tohdoh, Chiba, Asahina, Senba, and Urabe. When the Black Knights betrayal of Zero, there was just four at the most and those being Kallen, Tohdoh, Chiba, and Li Xingke.

Just thinking that is the Black Knight's skilled pilots being at least seven, the Black Knights would be hard pressed if the Britannia Empire decided to bring out all twelve of the Knights and possibly even more. "There are still some pilots that Kitsune said that he sees if they can help, but it will probably be at a later time before they show up. That is what Kitsune told us when he brought all of us together," Doktor S added. "I would be lying if I said that I don't need the help, but I am very grateful to get the extra help," Rakshata said as she shows that she is grateful in them being there. "Just to let you know that Kitsune had explained everything from the history of this world and what is going on," Instructor H said. "What do you mean by that," Rakshata asked as she caught what Instructor H just said. "The reason is that all of here are from different universes. Not only that but most of us here had dealt with fighting against force that have quite the power base like Britannia Empire," Ian answered.

Rakshata then remembered what Kitsune had said about there being different universes that some could be similar at some points or completely different. "We will have to talk more about this subject later. Right now, all of us have work to do if we want to help that young man, Lelouch, with his goals in fighting both his family and an Empire," Dr. J said with a smile as he clamped the three fingers together on his prosthetic arm. "You are correct in that. After all, Kitsune had also asked us to make a special type of suit for the Lelouch to use when the time comes," Professor G added. "What do you mean by a special type of suit," Rakshata asked as she was wondering what was going to be made for Lelouch. "The suit that we are going to make is something that most of us here have a sort of specialty hand in working on. The suit that is going to be made will probably take a year or two before it is completed, but it will definitely be worth the wait," Howard answered in the same laid-back tone in his voice that Rakshata heard from him before.

Rakshata had shown the nine what she was working on and informed them what her ideas was. It was not long before all of them started to brainstorm in way that Guren and the other frames could be improved upon. Rakshata would later learn that Yuuri was from a sort of future time. It was quite a shocked to Rakshata to learn that Lelouch was seen as some sort of evil tyrant even more than his father and was killed by Zero. She had seen that the nine people that Kitsune had bought here was able to bring some information on Knightmare frames that Rakshata have not seen before and there was even information on units what was called mobile suits and also something that was simply known as 'Project G Weapons.'

From the information on mobile suit had Rakshata coming up with more ideas on make more children. Don't even get her started when she looked at Project G Weapon. As for the special suit that was going to be made for Lelouch, it was going to take pretty much all ten of them to build that suit along with others if needed. Rakshata would later learn that the special suit that was going to be made was actually part of the Project G Weapon information. Dr. J had asked Rakshata, Erica, and Yuuri to help with a side project that Kitsune had personally asked to be made. This project that was asked was not going to be use for fighting but was going to actually be a big help for a certain person when it was completed and given to said person when the time comes.

When the ten were not working on the Knightmare frames, they were getting along as they bonded over their skills in robotic technology. A few times you could find some of them having augment in what type of weapon suit is the best. Ivan had introduced his wife, Linda Vashti, who was also a robotic engineer and would be big help for them. Ivan and Linda also had a daughter by the name Mileina Vashti. Mileina was not only a mechanic, but had the skills of bring a CIC operator. Rakshata had introduced her sister to the eleven newcomers, and they were taken back by how smart that this ten-year-old girl was. The ideas that she had for the Knightmare frames was quite the surprised. Rakshata had given her sister one of the laptops that was in the containers to help with putting all the ideas that she had to be place in a work like setting.

Each of the scientists, engineers, and mechanic had helped the young Chawla with her ideas. It may be a while, but the ideas that Shanti had was going to be created with some help. Rakshata was able to create the medicine that was going to help the health of Li Xingke. It had taken some time, but it was finally ready. Rakshata had already sent the medicine right toward Li Xingke threw some connection that Li Xingke had informed her beforehand. Once the Guren was completely remade with the new upgrades, she was going to get started on doing the same thing to the Shen Hu and send it to Li Xingke when it was finished. Rakshata knew that there was going to be lots of work before her and the others that are helping out, but the reward for their hard work would be worth it in the end.

Back in Japan A few weeks had passed

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Some time had passed since Lelouch, and the others had met at Ashford Academy. Lelouch had maintained contract with both Jeremiah and Kaguya. With being the leader of the Purist Faction, it was easy for him to get Knightmare parts ordered and placed in warehouse where it would be conveniently forgotten except for a select few. Lelouch would get those parts to the factory after the battle in Shinjuku and before his sister Cornelia shows up in Japan. Jeremiah had also gotten some parts for the Glasgow for Kallen to use to repair her current frame that she was going to use. Jeremiah had informed Lelouch that he put the Glasgow parts in a different warehouse that happened to be abandoned.

Kaguya was able to get her hands on some supplies and equipment that would be useful. Kaguya and Jeremiah were able to help each other in getting those supplies that Kaguya had gotten along with some other supplies that Jeremiah was able to add to what could be used. Lelouch had asked the two of them if they could get some of those supplies to Miyake Island when they got the chance to. Lelouch had got with Jeremiah in helping him to ready to travel to India to meet up with Rakshata. Lelouch wanted to make sure that no one would recognize him by chance and word gets to the Britannia Royal family that Lelouch was still alive. Jeremiah was able to fake some records that Lelouch was able to use along with a disguise. Lelouch was already gotten a disguise ready.

The disguise that Lelouch was going to use was a wig that unkempt, wavy black hair that would cover his eyes at time. He also got some grey color contacts for his eye along with a regular pair of black glasses. Lelouch had found some cream that would give his skin a little bit whiter, but not too much that way he did not come off looking sick to everyone. As for the clothing, he was going to wear some regular clothing that he had went to the store to get some shopping done. Lelouch was going to have both Jeremiah and Kallen to help Sayoko with watching over Nunnally while he was in India. Lelouch had made sure that the data on the thumb drive that Milly had given him to hand over to Rakshata was in a safe place until he was to fly out to India, but even then Lelouch was going to make sure that no security was going to find if by chance.

Between the time from the group meeting that weekend and until the day of the trip to India for Lelouch. the time for everyone was the same as always. Except for an incident that happened on the grounds of Ashford Academy. There was picture of a shirtless Lelouch as he was changing in his bedroom, unaware that someone had taken the picture, in the afternoon after school was over for the day, and copies were made. These copies had found their ways into the hands of all the high school girls. Lelouch had been hearing the sounds of giggling that came from groups of girls as he walked around the academy. Lelouch had seen that Shirley had a red face when they were in the same room at any given times. Lelouch was wondering if Shirley was sick not knowing about the pictures at this time. The secret network of high school girls was truly scary.

Lelouch would learn about the pictures from Kallen. She had talked to Lelouch with no one around and she had shown him the pictures. Lelouch was red in face from embarrassed once he saw the pictures. Unknown to Lelouch. Kallen had quite the collection of those pictures of Lelouch in a box that was place in a hidden location only know to her. Kallan was not going to let her mother know about the pictures that she has. Kallen figured that if her mother knew about those pictures there would be no end of teasing that was to come. Lelouch had a list of people that came to mind on who would do something like this and only one name came to mind. It was no doubt that long blonde haired she devil that always found entertainment in doing these types of things. The culprit was none other than the granddaughter of the principal of Ashford Academy and is also the principle of the Ashford Academy Student Council, and that person was Milly Ashford.

Later Lelouch would be face to face with Milly and Milly was telling him that she had nothing to do with it. Lelouch did not believe that for a moment. From then on Lelouch had made sure that his bedroom door was lock along with the windows and the curtains drawn closed. It would take some time for the effect of the pictures would settle down for the girls, but the looks in their eyes that they gave Lelouch was still there and would not be disappearing any time soon. The only silver lining is that the information on those pictures of Lelouch was kept away from the ears of Nunnally. Lelouch had a feeling that the issue of these pictures would come back at some point in the future.

While waiting for the day of his fly out to India, Lelouch was occupy his time by challenging the nobles in Japan to a game of chess. Lelouch was able to thick some of the nobles into raising bet on the money they were waging. Lelouch had left those nobles in tear as he walked away with his winning. Lelouch knew that he had to increase his skills in how he thinks. Lelouch knew that he would have to be able to outmaneuver his brother Schneizel when the time comes for their face out. Lelouch realized that he would have to be unpredictable as he fights in the coming battles that will be set before him.

The day for the flight had finally came for Lelouch. Lelouch was going under the name Ren Fairbrook. With the help from Jeremiah, Lelouch had no problems as he checked into his flight. It was not long before the flight that Lelouch was on had taken off into the air. There was one thing that Lelouch did not like about the flight that he was on and that was the flight path. Because of fighting between Britannia Empire and Chinese Federation, the flight was going to have to go around China to get to India. The flight was going to go through the areas of Philippines and Indonesia which are under control of the Empire. While on the flight, this gave Lelouch time to think.

Lelouch had to plan out some for him to go to China and help Li Xingke deal with the High Eunuchs. Lelouch would have to get the High Eunuchs to reveal their true nature to the people of the China Federation, like he did before. This would cause the people to be behind Li Xingke and those the support the Tianzi. The only thing is that Lelouch is going to have to plan the proper time and place for it. He would get with some of the others to get more of an idea. Then Lelouch thoughts turned to a subject that he had been struggling with for quite some time. That subject was using the Geass Canceller on Nunnally. The moment that Kitsune told Lelouch about the possibly Geass effect that Nunnally was under.

The more that Lelouch had thought on that matter, he had no problem believing that their father would have no problem with using his Geass on his family. After all, Charles had used his Geass on Lelouch when Suzaku dragged him before the Emperor. Lelouch gritted his teeth in anger at the thought of Suzaku. A person that he had considered to be his friend and a person that he could trust with protecting Nunnally. But none of that matters anymore given all the trouble that Suzaku had caused. Suzaku had interfered with all of his plans, the betrayal of their friendship on Kamine Island just to gain a title of the Knight of Round, the attempt to use Refrain on Kallen just to learn if he was Zero again and finally using the FLEIJA on the Toyko Settlement which caused the death of at least hundreds of people that included Nunnally.

Lelouch started to tighten his right hand into a fist in anger. To think that Lelouch had saved Suzaku's life from being killed because everyone at first believe that he had killed Prince Clovis during the fight in Shinjuku. Lelouch hoped to bring Suzaku to his side but refused to. Later when Lelouch find out that Suzaku was the pilot of the Lancelot, he tried to capture Suzaku without killing him, but that stopped by his brother Schneizel. Then the final three nails that finally made Lelouch to break the friendship between the two. He had asked Suzaku for his help on two separated times just for Suzaku to refused and the last is Nunnally's death.

Lelouch hated at how naive thoughts that Suzaku had that he could change Britannia on the inside by working within the rules. Lelouch knew that path that Suzaku was going to follow was never going to happen and that was because of how Britannia works and the person that was in charge of the Britannian Empire. Lelouch had no problem in believing that his father and those that are in similar thoughts to the Emperor would possible killed Suzaku in secret of possible in pubic or maybe they would even strip the Knight of Round title from him. So barely the bottom line is the Suzaku's plans was doom from the beginning.

Lelouch was going to show Suzaku how to do things. Lelouch was going to build the Black Knight once again and this time they are going to free Japan from the control of Britannia. Then Lelouch was going to help established the UFN with Kaguya as the chairwoman. Lelouch was going to stop the crazy plan that both his parent had made once again. Lelouch was going to stop whatever Schneizel's plan is and take the throne as Emperor of Britannia. Once Lelouch was Emperor, he was going to change thing right from the top. This was Lelouch's plan and the biggest difference between his plan and Suzaku's plan is that Lelouch is going to refused to sacrifice any of his morals like Suzaku had done before. Lelouch was going to do thing differently this time around and he going to make sure things have a different outcome.

Hours of flying later

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

The flight that Lelouch was on had finally arrived at India. It had taken Lelouch a few minutes to find the person that Rakshata had assign to bring Lelouch to her research lab from the airport. It had taken baout two hours for the two to reach their location. Rakshata was at the entrance to welcome Lelouch, and she had him follow her to a secure room. Once the two were in the room. Lelouch took noticed that there were nine other people in the room that he was not familiar with. A quick explanation from Rakshata that Kitsune had brought them her and the nine had introduce themselves to Lelouch. After the introduction were out of the way, it was time to get down to business. The only ones in the room to talk business were Rakshata, Lelouch, and Dr. J. The other eight that were in the room had work to get done and had excused themselves.

"Here is the data on the Ashford's Ganymede Frame project," Lelouch said as he handed the thumb drive to Rakshata. Rakshata had gracefully accepted the thumb drive from Lelouch and proceeded to put the thumb drive in the laptop that she had in the room. It was not long uuntil both Rakshata and Dr. J had briefly looked over the data that what seen on the laptop. "I must say. After seeing this, I have no problem believe that combine this data with Rakshata's work along with the skills that me and the other eight scientist, then the Knightmare frame that are going to be made will be something else," Dr. J said with a grin. "He is absolutely correct. My children are going to put that Earl of Pudding in his place," Rakshata said with a grin of her own. She was imaging Lloyd crying at his Lancelot being damaged by her Knightmare children.

"I am glad that I could make both of your day with this," Lelouch said with a smile. "Before I forget, I want to give you these before you leave," Rakshata said as she pulled out two thumb drives from her lab coat. The two thumb drive that she handed over were difference in color and those colors were red, and dark purple. "The red thumb drive is to go to Kallen. It will have all the information on the Guren MK-II. The Guren that she will pilot in the future will be completely different from the first time she piloted," Rakshata said, and this brought on a look of curiosity from Lelouch. "What do you mean," Lelouch asked.

"You see, when I went to get the Knightmare that Kitsune sent back, he had also sent other things that after I checked out was quite the treasure. Kitsune had provided designs on a new power source called an Arc Reactor Drive. This Reactor Drive is actually more powerful than any of the Sakuradite type power sources that were made. The Guren will be equip with the Reactor Drive. Even the armor of the Guren will be different and it will have a few more added weapons that will prove useful," Rakshata answered. Lelouch nodded his headed and then he asked, "Do you have an idea on how to make sure that the Reactor Drive does not fall into the hands of the Britannia?"

"That is simple enough. The housing case that will hold the Reactor Drive is going to be coded lock. If there is an attempt to either hack, break the housing, or entered the wrong code, then the Reactor Drive will self-destruct with no hopes in figuring out the power source was made," Rakshata replied. "I see that answers that. What is on the other thumb drive," Lelouch asked. "The other thumb drive is something for you to look over once you are back in Japan. It contains everything that I am going to develop for the future of the Black Knight, and I want you to be ready for what you are going to see," Rakshata answered. Lelouch placed the two thumb drives in a safe place for the travel back to Japan.

"I have two things to give you as well. Here is the first," Dr. J said as he pulled out a small silver case and from the look of it a person could barely get their hand around it. Dr. J handed the case to Lelouch and then said, "Please don't open it here or on the plane. You can open it in your room when you return or even at a later date when you have some free time." "Why is that" Lelouch asked. Dr. J had a grin on his face and answered back, "All I can say that this is one of two things that Kitsune had asked to be made and what is in this case will be something that you will probably look forward to." "I thank you for this," Lelouch said as he took the case from Dr. J. Then Dr. J got up from his seat and headed over towards a door that was a closet.

"Now for the second gift. This was also the other thing that Kitsune had asked to be made," Dr. J said as he opened the door and Lelouch was both surprised and shocked by what he was seeing. For the thing that was in the closet looked to be leg brace like the ones that Dr. J had, but the brace was a lot slimmer and more looked to be made for a small girl. "These right here are robotic exoskeleton leg brace type frame that we are calling a leg frame. These were specifically made using the known medical knowledge and a bit of advanced technology. This will allow a person that is unable to walk to walk again," Dr. J explained as he pulled the leg frames out. The moment that Lelouch heard what Dr. J said and then he realized that Kitsune had this made was for Nunnally.

"When we were making these, we had to make sure that the person that was going to be using these were not going to be uncomfortable in anyway. We also made sure that frame height can be adjusted with no problem. On the back of the legs where the waist would be is neural senser device that will place along the person's spine, and this will allow the person to control the leg frame with no problem. Basely this will give the person the appearance of them walking. The only thing that the person that uses the leg frame is going to need is another person to help remove them if the person needs to. We also fixed in way that will allow the person to get in and out of the leg frame with no problem," Dr. J finished explained.

Lelouch was taken back by the information that Dr. J had told him. To think that these leg frames would allow his little to walk around and not be bound to by the wheelchair anymore. It was then that Lelouch realized just now that the only way for Nunnally to use these leg frames is if her sight is restored. "I forgot to mention that this leg frame right here is equipped with a special type of tracker that even if someone was to check it over but won't be able to find it. The tracker is link to this PDA tablet. This tablet also contains a sort of manual that you can look over later," Dr. J said as he handed the tablet over to Lelouch, which he accepted.

Rakskata had let Lelouch know that she had a plan in place to get the leg frames on the same flight as Lelouch without any problems. Rakshata had also provided some medical paperwork that shows that the leg frames were for medical use for Nunnally. The three talked about some other things for a while before Lelouch had to leave for the airport for his flight back to Japan. Lelouch had thanked the two along with the others for their help and the gifts. Two hours later Lelouch had arrived back at the airport in time and the leg frames was packed up in a special made suitcase that was loaded on the plane. It was not long until Lelouch was flying right back to Japan. Lelouch had a lot to think on this flight back home.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Months passed in Japan

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

A lot of things had happened since Lelouch came back from India. Lelouch had gave the red thumb drive to Kallen when they met up. When Kallen was able to look at the thumb drive, the data that she saw had blown her mind. The information on the new improvement on the Guren that was displayed was bring quite the savage grin on Kallen's face. According to the information that Rakshata had left on the thumb drive, Rakshata had guessed the level of the Guren MK-II with the new upgrades could possibly be on par of the Guren S.E.I.T.A.N. or maybe even higher. Kallen was so looking forward to the day she will pilot the Guren because she was going to trash Suzaku and the Lancelot on the battlefield. And that battlefield was going to be at the mountain in Narita.

Lelouch had taken the small silver case that Dr. J had handed him and placed in a secure safe that was in his room. Lelouch did not open the case, and he decided to open the case at a later date. Lelouch had a guess that he would know when to open that case that when the time is right. For the time being though Lelouch had other things to take care of at the moment. Lelouch had looked at the thumb drive and was quite surprised by what Rakshata had place on it. The thumb drive had contained the information on the Gekka frame, but it had some improvements on it.

The Gekka frames were going to be equipped with what looked like a changeable weapon backpack system. It seems like the weapon backpack was going to be a sword type. Which had made sense to Lelouch that Tohdou and the Four Holy Swords were the first five people to pilot the Gekka frames during a prison break. A strange looking tank designs that Lelouch had never seen before. From what Lelouch was seeing about these tanks is that it is made for the uses of two people piloting it and the way that it would work is one person would be driving and the other would be on the weapon systems. With how these tanks are made would heavy armor wise, but there were only four wheels to move the tank, and it would have more improved maneuverability that would allow tight turns. Lelouch had a feeling that this new style of tanks would prove useful with combat in the settlement if the Knightmare frames were not an option to be used. There were even other designs for new Knightmare frame types that Rakshata had added to the thumb drive as well.

The most interesting news that made headline and was most talked about was the break and robbery at the Britannia Royal family bank in the Britannian homeland during the night. The thing about that bank is that the security was top of the line. The security had motion detector camera, pressure plated panels on the floor, which anything bigger than a quarter would set it off, and there were laser beams all over that building when it was closed for the night. That bank security was made with no blind spots whatsoever in its designs. Even the computer systems were inaccessible from the outside.

The strangest thing about the robbery was that only account of the Royal family that was stolen belong to none other than Marianne Vi Britannia that was emptied out. The account for Marianne was not to be touch in any way by orders of the Emperor when the assassination of Marianne happened years ago. The security force of the back is still trying to figure out how it was done and by who. About a day after word of the break in had come out, Lelouch had a note from Kitsune that contains a bank account that was under the name Alex Wingate along with paperwork including an ID that has Lelouch's picture on it. Lelouch checked out the account and was shocked by the amount of money there was. Lelouch had wonder how in the world did Kitsune get all that money and also wondered if he would ever get that answer from Kitsune or not.

It was about a month after his trip back from India when Lelouch had finally made his decision. Lelouch had finally made up his mind on wither or not to use the Geass Canceller on Nunnally and decided to go ahead with freeing Nunnally from her blindness. He had decided that he would do it in the afternoon when the Academy was done for the day with the next few days being non-Academy days to help Nunnally just in case of any mental trauma was to happen. Lelouch had gotten with Milly, Sayoko, and Jeremiah about his decision and asked them to make to be there. Jeremiah had scheduled some time off to be there for Lady Nunnally when she regains her sight once again. Lelouch had even asked Kallen to be there if she wanted to since he had introduced her to Nunnally after he came back from India. Nunnally really like Kallen as they got to know each other.

To say that the event of that day was surely one to be remembered by those that was day.

~FLASHBACK AT THE ASHFORD ACADEMY AFTERNOON~

The day had come with Lelouch, Kallen, Milly, Sayoko, and Jeremiah all in the living room with Nunnally. "What is going on Big Brother," Nunnally asked with the look of curiosity on her face. "I will get to that in a minute," Lelouch answered as he signals Jeremiah to use his Geass Canceller. Jeremiah activated his Geass and soon the room was cover in a blue dome for just a few seconds. Lucky for Kallen she had asked Jeremaih to use his Canceller on her during the month-long training. She had to make sure what Lelouch did with his Geass on her and was glad that Lelouch did not do anything and all it was questioning her. Jeremiah soon stopped his Geass and stepped towards the side with the others.

Lelouch walked to be right in front of Nunnally and kneeled before her that way his face would be in front of hers. "Nunnally, I know you had not been ablet to open your eyes before, but I would like to see if you can try to right now. I believe that you can do it," Lelouch said in tone in his voice that showed that he is a caring big brother. Nunnally was quiet for moment and soon she nodded her head and replied, "I will try Big Brother." It was not long for Nunnally to open her eyes for the first time in a very long time since they be closed. At first all Nunnally could see was blurriness and after blinking a few times, she soon began to see clearly for the first time.

The first thing that Nunnally saw was the face of her brother that looked older given that the last time that she saw her brothers face was when they were kids. Lelouch had almost forgotten the violet color of Nunnally's eyes. "Is this real Big Brother," Nunnally asked as tears were starting form by her eyes. "Yes, it is Nunnally," Lelouch answered as he wrapped his arms around Nunnally in a hug. Kallen and the others had smiles on their faces as they watched this scene of a big brother and his sister. Soon Lelouch broke the hug and look at Nunnally once again. Nunnally was about to say something, and then she gained a look of terror in her eyes and soon screamed.

Nunnally's hands was gripping her head as it seems she was remembering something scarier that happened with tears coming from her eyes. Lelouch pulled Nunnally into a hug once again with the others in the room coming closer to make sure that Nunnally was okay. It was a few minutes before Nunnally had calmed down with tears still coming out of her eyes. "I-I-I remember what happen," Nunnally said. The others gave her time that she needed and tried not to rush. Nunnally had gottne up in the night to get a drink of water and come upon her mother talking to boy with blonde hair. The blonde hair boy gave an order and men with guns came in. Nunnally tried to run to her mother and Marianne had tried to shield Nunnally from the gun fire.

Of course, Nunnally was left unable to walk. The next thing that Nunnally remember waking up in the hospital room with their father by Nunnally bedside. Charles had placed his hand on Nunnally's head and Nunnally thought that she saw Charles's eyes changed for moment before her eyes closed. It was then that Nunally was unable to remember that night. Everyone that was listening could not help but have a deep anger that was directed right at Emperor Charles for what he done to Nunnally. Soon Nunnally was getting tried and was soon tucked into bed for the night.

It would not be until the next day, after Nunnally was well rested before Lelouch had shown her the leg frames that he got from India. Lelouch had Sayoko help Nunnally putting the leg frames on. Once the leg frame was on, Lelouch and Sayoko stayed by Nunnally's side for the day as she gotten used to walking with the leg frames. By the afternoon, Nunnally had gotten a handle on walking and not being bound to the wheelchair. Milly and Lelouch had shown the members of the Student Council that Nunnally was able to see and the leg frames that allowed her to walk. The members were very happy for the girl. Of course, Milly had made an Academy event with Nunnally involved in it now that she was walking and soon running.

~FLASHBACK ENDS~

Lelouch was glad that month training he did because now he had to deal with watching Nunnally almost every move given that she had the urge to not wanting to sty in place. Lelouch had forgotten that Nunnally was the same way when she was younger. Lucky Lelouch had Sayoko to help him with Nunnally. Things were getting a bit lively at the Academy. Kallen had also joined the Student Council much earlier this time around. This was a big help for Kallen to not draw any attention to her at the Academy. With Milly and Lelouch help on the Student Council, Kallen was able to handle her business that was off the Academy grounds. Kallen had the Glasgow frame ready for the battle in Shinjuku.

It was about a month left before the events in Shinjuku was going to happen again. Lelouch had used his Geass on Nina when she was the only one in the room at the Student Council building. Lelouch had place a Geass order on Nina on the off chance that Nina was to create the FLEIJA weapon, then she was to email all data on said weapon to Rakshata along with any information on how to neutralize the weapon. Lelouch knew that he could had order Nina to abandon such ideas if it was to happen, but there no telling what could happen and could make things worst later.

Lucky Lelouch and the others had figured out a way to get the Japanese people that were living in the ruins of Shinjuku. All they need to do was bust some gas line that can be fixed with no problem and possible some power lines. With this in place Jeremiah could have the Britannia police force with some military to get an evacuation of the area. Of course there would be some that will be stubborn, but Kallen would get her friends to help convince them to leave the area for their safety. Once the area is cleared of people, Jeremiah would have a Sutherland frame stashed for Lelouch to use when the battle is happening. Soon everything was falling into place and soon the Britannia would have no idea what was going to be in store for them.

For the next day was the Battle in Shinjuku.

To Be Conti...XXXXX

Two Months Earlier at the Pendragon Imperial Palace in the Britannia Homeland nighttime

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

On top of one the towers were a figure that looks to be a man that overlooked the Pendragon courtyard with the brightness of the crescent moon in the night sky above. The crouched down before he jumped towards the side of the tower. The man was falling down the side of the tower with him falling upside down. Just about halfway down the tower the man flipped in a 180-degree and quicky deploy a paraglider and started to move his arms to control the direction of where he was gliding to. The man was gliding to a small balcony ledge. The man was closed to the ledge when he had let go of the paraglider with his right hand. With the sudden loss of cloth that was slowing down the fall, the man was falling quicky again, but not as far given the man had landed at the ledge he was aiming for.

The man was wearing an all-black outfit as he walked towards the window. The man was wearing men's heavy duty work shoes, black jean pants, and black short sleeve t-shirt. He had on was a pair of fingerless gloves and full-face mask that left only the eyes and the top on head with his hair showing. He was also wearing a sleeveless trench coat that he kept unbutton. The only color that was showing was the skin from his arms that was not covered and glowing green eyes. The man had pulled out a small lock picking kit and started picked the lock on the window. It was not long for the man to unlock the window and quickly entered with a soft click of the window's lock closing behind the man.

The man walked down the hallway as he was heading towards his destination. The was man was impressed by all the cameras that was set up in the hallway. The man would have been spotted by the time he entered the Pendragon if it was not for the camera system being hacked earlier that day. As the man walked, there was grin of smile that was on the man's face as he walked. Soon the man stopped in front of some doors, and this was where his target was at. The man could hear the voices of two men that was coming from behind those doors.

In the room there was two men having a discussion along with a girl that looks to be 14 in age with light pink hair. The people in the room were none other than Bismarck Waldstein, the Knight of One and the best Knightmare pilot in the world, Anya Alstreim, the Knight of Six and was being controlled by the Marianne Vi Britannia with the uses of her Geass, and final Charles Zi Britannia the 98th Emperor of Britannian. "All I am asking is how in the world that someone was able to break into that given the level of security," Charles asked. "We are still looking into it at this moment, but it is believed that must have involve a team of the sort that are very talented to be able to pull this off," Bismarck replied. "I wondered why they only empty one account of all its money, and it happened to be mine in that case," Anya asked aloud.

"I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but there was only one person that broke into that bank of yall and that me person is none other than me," said a man's voice that the three in the room were unfamiliar with. The three turned to where the voice came from and saw a man dressed in all black with his back leaning on the door as he looked right towards them. "Who are you and how did you enter this place," Bismarck asked has his hand reached for his gun to aim and possible shoot the intruder before them. "You may simply call me Kitsune. It is obviously not my real name. As for how I got here that is a simple enough to answer and that answer is that I walked," the man now revealed to be Kitsune as grin formed that showed threw the mask that he wore. "Why are you even here? Know that if you don't answer, I will kill you right where you stand," Bismarck replied as he drew his gun, but everyone except for Kitsune was surprised by what happened next before their eyes.

For you see Kitsune's arms were cross together in front of his chest and gave signs of having nothing in his hands when the three first saw him. Then in a flash before the eyes of the three that changed. Kitsune arms were now stretch out in front of him with a strange item in his left hand and what looks to be a sort of wire with an end in his right hand as it was pulled away from the item in his left hand. The next thing that anybody know what happened is that the gun in Bismarck's hand went flying and the cause was a metal looking top that was spinning on the ground that was moving away from Bismarck and closer to Kitsune. In a split moment before Bismarck lost his gun, he thought he saw what looks to be some sort of lion beast that was heading right towards him from Kitsune.

"I will only say this once, so you three children better clean the wax from yall ears to listen and behave or I will give yall something to fear beside yall fear of death before yall stupid plan for Ragnarok is stop right before yall eyes," Kitsune said with his voice being dead serious as his right hand let go of the wire and the wire was being wound back up to the item in his left hand. The metal top that was on the floor shot from its position on the ground and was now in midair, in which one quick movement from Kitsune's right arm caught it within arm reach. "I would like to talk to this so call Emperor before me about making a sort of bet for in the future to come," Kitsune said as the tone in his voice change to a calming tone.

Code Geass: Back to The Past for a New Future

Chapter 10: The First Stage: Shinjuku Battlefield

It was nighttime in in the land that was once known as Japan but now renamed Area 11 by Britannian. On top of a broken tower, that was known as Tokyo Tower but renamed Britannian Victory Memorial Center, was a man that was sitting close by the edge. The man that was there was not allowed to be there but giving that it was night there was very little chance of being caught. This man was none other than Kitsune as he was wearing the same outfit when he saved Lelouch and Kallen from the Black Knights, but the only difference right now he was wearing a black hoodless jacket with red on the inside and his katana blade was on the ground besides him. Kitsune had a red soda can that had a picture of a monster that looks like Godzilla like Kaiju and cherries on the can. Kitsune was taking a few sips from the soda as he looks out toward the ruins of the Japan that under the night stary sky with a full moon overhead. "I did all I can to help Lelouch and the others the best I can. I will have to leave everything to them and hope that things will change for this timeline. The stage is all set for tomorrow," Kitsune said aloud to no one as he lifts his drink into the air in front of him. The direction that Kitsune was lifting his soda was towards Shinjuku.

The Next Day

XXXXXXXXXXX

There was a transport truck driving down a highway road in the Toyko Settlement. Everything almost looked normal except for a small flying transport unit following the truck from above. There was a Britannian seal logo that was shown under the aircraft unit. The pilot of the aircraft was radioing in information on the truck to command center of the sort. There were orders coming through the radio to mobilize a force of some kind and the reason is unknown for now.

~Scene changes to a restaurant type bar~

There was a tv news report on a terrorist bombing that happened in Osaka in a restaurant bar type setting. There was only seven men in the establishment. Five of the seven of the men were wearing black suit like they were bodyguards. They were standing around the two men that were sitting down with a table in front of them that had a chess board that was set up. One of the men was a nobleman that had a smug look on his face. As for the other person was an old man who make no attempt in hiding how nervous he was as it was clearly his turn in this chess match. There was a timer clock that was on the side of the chess board that made a beeping sound that drew the attention of the old man.

One of the black suits wearing man that was behind the old man turned the tv off with the remote and said, "You are out of time. From here on you will make your moves every twenty seconds." "Very well I'm game," said the nobleman as he filing his fingernail as he was waiting for the old man to make his move. The old man swallows a bit and was shaking with more nervousness. It was then the main doors open that drew all seven men attention to and away from the chess board. "Did your substitute arrival," the nobleman said as the old man shown relief when he saw who had entered the building and got up to greet the person. "Thank heaven. I am saved," the old man said as he was trying to catch his breath as if he was out of breath from running nonstop with no breaks to take.

From the doorway there was two shadow type figures as the sun was behind them that caused their faces to not be seen. One of the figures had the height of an average person as the second figure height was where his head was a little pass the shoulder of the first. As they walked in, the old man asked, "Are things going well at school?" "What have we here? School boys," the nobleman said a smug look still on his face. The two newcomers were walking as the light finally reveal their faces. These two were none other Lelouch and his friend Rivalz Cardemonde. Rivalz was wearing a motorcycle helmet. "Look at this a nobleman," Lelouch replied back as the nobleman tap his nail filer on the table in front of him.

"I envy you kids today having some much time on your hands. Time for regrets. What is your name," the nobleman asked as he hated how Lelouch showed him no respect. "Lelouch Lamperouge," Lelouch answered with a bored tone in his voice. Rivalz rushed on the side of Lelouch to see the positions of the chess pieces on the board and said, "Woah. Now wait a minute you can't win this one it is impossible right." Rival turned to face Lelouch as he sees Lelouch looking at the chess board in front of him with a hard stone looks on his face that was showing no emotion of any kind. "Rivalz. When do you think, we would have to leave in order to make our next class," Lelouch asked, but the truth is Lelouch already knows the answer to the that question since Lelouch asked that same question before.

"Twenty minutes if we bust our humps," Rivalz answered after a moment to think it over. "Then be sure to drive safely on the way back," Lelouch replied as Rivalz was taken back by what Lelouch said. The noble taped his nail filer on the table twice as Lelouch was taking his sit in the chair ha said, "I will only need nine minutes. And by the way about yesterday." It was then the old man answered, "Understood sir. We can talk about it later." It was then one of the black suits wearing men said, "Nine minutes. You only have twenty seconds per move.' It was then that Lelouch had grabbed the black king piece to move on the chess board and replied, "Enough time." "You start with the king," Nobleman said before he started to laugh and this cause Lelouch to show a smile that said in its own way that Lelouch was going to enjoy showing this nobleman in front of him something.

~Scene changes on the highway of the Toyko Settlement~

The truck from before was moving a lot faster than before. Inside the cab of the two were two people. The one driving the truck was a man with long black hair. The other person that was sitting to the passenger sit was a girl that was wearing a uniform hat that kept her face covered but there was some red hair showing from the back and on both side of her face. The driver went by the name Takeshi Nagata and the one girl was none other than Kallen Kozuki. These two are part of the Kozuki Resistance that was created by Kallen's older brother Naoto. "Perfect. After we finally steal this damn thing, is all because Takaki couldn't stick to the plan and now we have a problem," Nagata said as he sees the same aircraft unit from before was now in front of them. "If we make it out of this alive, I will personally kick Takaki's butt so hard he will not be able to sit right for a while," Kallen said as she was going to do just that after the events in Shinjuku.

~Scene changes back to the establishment where the chess game was played at~

The nail filer that the nobleman was using had dropped to the floor. The nobleman was looking at the chess board in complete shock. "I love playing against nobility. When they lose, they always pay out of pride. By the way, 8 minutes and 32 seconds is a new record," Rivalz said as both him and Lelouch had walked out of the establishment as they were heading towards Rivalz's motorcycle. "He also didn't have much time to move either and as opponent goes the nobles are tether. They are just over pillage parasites. Thats all," Lelouch said in bored tone in his voice. "Weel then why don't you challenge one the Elevens. They are nothing like us Britannians," Rivalz said as he looked at Lelouch.

'Rivalz, you are so lucky that Kallen is not around here to hear you say that. I have no problem in believing that she would beat you into a coma for that remake,' Lelouch thought as he knew how Kallen was when anyone said anything back about the Japanese. Kallen had gotten better with controlling her temper, but it was only a matter of time before she just releases that temper with no holding back. Suddenly the sound of a crowd of Britannias caught their attention and looked to see what it was. The crowd was looking at a huge tv monitor that was on the side of a building. It was showing of a terrorist bombing that in Osaka. There was a report given of some Britannias and Elevens that were killed.

"We apologize for the delay. Now his royal highness Prince Clovis the Third Prince of Britannia will address the nation," said a female computer voice as the image on the tv change to show the Britannina flag before it changed again to show Price Clovis. The man that appeared on the screen was Prince Clovis La Britannia the Third Prince in the Britannia Royal family and the man that is serving as a Viceroy to Area 11. "To all my Imperial subject," Clovis said as Lelouch's eyes changed from looking to anger as he was watching the monitor. "And of course including the many cooperatives' Elevens that chose to serve the mighty empire of Britannia," Clovis said as Kallen was watching the same announcement that Lelouch was watching on a small tv monitor in the truck. "We are not Elevens. We are Japanese," Kallen said in anger. 'I can wait for that loudmouth of a prince to be dead by the end of the day,' Kallen thought still hating the word Eleven being using to call the Japanese.

"Do you not see my pain. My heart ripped from my chest, only to be torn apart. The remnants are filled with rage and sadness. However, as the ruler of Area 11 I will not tolerate terrorist of any kind. Because the battle that we fight is righteous one. A virtuous one to protect the wellbeing of one and all. Now everyone I would like you to join me in the observance of the eight that die, in justice in the line of duty," Clovis said with the passion that match in what me was saying to all in the announcement. "A moment of silence please," said a female computer voice as all Britannias that heard the announcement began to do.

Rivalz was getting the motorcycle ready as Lelouch was getting the parking gate open for them to leave. "Well, aren't you going to join in," Rivalz asked as he finished checking over the back as he looked towards Lelouch. "Aren't you," Lelouch replied back. 'I won't be because that moment of silence is only for the Britannias that died and not the Japanese,' Lelouch thought as he grabbed the parking receipt from the gate. "It is sort of embarrassing," Rivals answered as lean on his bike a bit. "And I agree with you. Besides spilling tears over those people won't bring them back to life, will it," Lelouch said as he walked over to the side cart of the motorcycle. "Dang that is dark brother," Rivalz replied as he moved a pair of driving goggles over his eyes. "It all about self-satisfaction. It doesn't matter how hard you try. You can't do it. It is impossible for one man to change the world," Lelouch said as he looked at the monitor that still shown Clovis on it and thought, 'Without having support of those that desire the change to happen.'

~Scene changes to where Prince Clovis was at~

A news video camera's red light just turned off, showing that nothing was being recorded at this point. "You were magnificent your Highness. One would never guess that you were attending a party while doing that," said a noblewoman as it was revealed that room that Prince Clovis was filled with a bunch of nobleman and noblewoman all dress in a sort of royal party fashion. "After all the Viceroy is a marquis actor of Area 11. I need to change costumes quickly," Clovis replied back as two butlers came on each side of Clovis and removed a royal type of cape from Clovis that he used for the announcement. "My you are so self-confident," said the noblewoman from before. "It's all in the performance. Since the media wants a charismatic prince, I give them one," Clovis said as he was straightening up his out before looking to his left at some nobles standing there.

"And true Prince Clovis. Our true purpose is to support and assist you reign in any way we can," said a man that is part of the media in some way. Standing in the hallway behind the man that talk was a sandy brown hair Britannia man that was leaning his back against the wall behind him as he was looking with his indigo color eyes over a file of some sort in his hand that was labeled Osaka Crisis Special Presentation. This man was Diethard Ried and he is a producer and member of the press staff at Hi-Tv, a Britannia television station. "His reign is a pathetic sham," Diethard said in a quiet voice so no one would overhear him. Just then a soldier came rushing in and right in front of Diethard while saying, "Your Highness." "A soldier," Diethard said as this caught not only his attention, but the others at this party as well.

"How borish of you," Clovis said to the soldier that came up to him. This was no ordinary soldier that came up to Clovis. This man was none other than Bartley Asprius and this man is very loyal to Prince Clovis. "I beg your pardon your highness, My Lord," Bartley said as he was out of breath from his running and started to whisper quietly in Clovis's ear. "Not another appearance for him. But not as dreary," Diethard said as he stood up straight and started to walk towards the exit, but he stops with a few steps before he heard Clovis said something in shock in his voice. "You fool," Clovis said and Bartley seen that everyone attention was on the two of them and then he begins to say, "The police were informed that it was medical equipment. That all. If we scramble the army there would be a." "Deploy the royal guard. The Knightmares as well," Clovis order as he cut off Bartley from finishing his sentence.

~Scene changes to a hanger~

There was an alert going off and there were some soldiers that were rushing to get to their Knightmare Frames. The soldiers that were getting into their Knightmares were part of the Purist Faction. All of them are skilled pilots and the frames that they use are the Sutherland. Among the Purists were two certain people. One was Villette Nu who in the future, from where Lelouch and others came from, would be love with Kaname Ohgi and be one of few people that cause the Black Knights to betray Zero by revealing his identity as Lelouch Vi Britannia. The other was Jeremiah Gottwald the leader of the Purists and now this time around a spy in the army and ally to Lelouch. 'Well, it's show time. Time of all to see what you can do My Lord,' Jeremiah thought as he entered his frame.

~Scene changes to the highway in the Toyko Settlement~

On the highway was a motorcycle that was being driven by Rivalz with Lelouch in the sidecar reading a book as they were heading back to the Ashford Academy. "That first move you make," Rivalz asked as he got Lelouch attention. "What about it," Lelouch replied as he was still reading his book. "Why did you start with the king," Rivalz asked a question that had been on his mind for a while. "If the king doesn't lead, then how can he expect his subordinates to follow," Lelouch answered as if it was just that simply. "What's with that," Rivalz replied as he did not understand what Lelouch was saying in his answer. "With what," Lelouch replied back with his own question to Rivalz. "Do you fantasize running a major corporation," Rivalz answered as he was trying to figure out the meaning in what Lelouch just said. "No way, ambition like that would ruin your health," Lelouch replied but any else he would have said was stop for the sound of a truck horn caught their attention from behind.

Rivalz and Lelouch looked behind and saw big transport truck coming up on them from behind really fast. "We are going to die," Rivalz said as he tried to get the motorcycle of the truck's way. Inside the truck were both Kallen and Nagata. "You idiot, watch where you are going," Nagata said as begun to turn the steering wheel of the truck. "No. Not that way," Kallen said to Nagata as he was turning to the truck to an off ramp but not seeing that were some orange cones and a construction barrier that was set up. The truck was going too fast to stop and rammed right through the barrier and slid in the sand and crashed into a building being constructed. When the truck hit the building, unknown to both Kallen and Nagata that part of the trailer opens up on top as the truck covered in a makeshift smokescreen.

Rivalz stops the motorcycle on the highway and then he ends up asking, "Is that our fault?" Both Lelouch and Rivalz were looking at the crash site of the truck and Lelouch thought, 'It seems like everything is right on schedule.' "I don't think so," Lelouch answered back as he had a certain glean in his eyes. Lelouch got out of the sidecar and began to remove his helmet as he walked towards the side barrier of the highway. "Oh man this suck. It looks like the power like on the bike got cut," Rivalz said as he was unable to get the motorcycle to start back up. Soon Lelouch saw that there were some people on the ground coming to see the truck crash given that it would draw attention given the sound from the crash. Lelouch walked back to the motorcycle and threw his helmet in the sidecar and began to run towards the off ramp that the truck used before the crash.

Inside the truck both Kallen and Nagata were both okay for the most part given that the airbag system engaged and kept them safe. 'That still hurt as crap even knowing that it was going to happen,' Kallen thought as was ready for the crash to make sure that she was not knock unconscious like Nagata was at this moment. "Hey, are you alright," Lelouch called out as he pretended to try to move some beams that were on the passenger side of the truck. With how Lelouch's body was now, he would have no problem in moving those beams, but he wanted to make sure that he would fool the people watching that way he could get into the truck just like before. Lelouch moved and saw a ladder on the side of the trailer.

"Yea, yea. I know it is the right thing to do, but I wish the guy would stop flaunting his pride and give it a rest for a while," Rivalz said as he was moving the motorcycle in neutral on get it off the main highway road and see if he could get the motorcycle started again. "Now we are going to be late for school," Rivalz said still complaining. The airbags in the truck had deflated as Kallen was calling Nagata's name to get him to wake up. 'I hope you are in position in the back Lelouch," Kallen though as she had seen Lelouch and Rivalz on the motorcycle before Nagata crashed the truck. It was not to long for Kallen to see a little movement from Nagata. "Can anyone hear me. Are you okay," Lelouch called out as he was now on top of the truck.

Nagata woke up and shifted the truck into reverse. Lelouch gave a small grin as he felt the truck move and gave an appearence to any that was watching that he fell in by accident but landed on the floor inside with no problem. Lelouch quickly grab ahold a bar that was inside the trailer since he remembers how rough this part was. Nagata soon shifted back into drive and took off as fast as he could with the truck. "Would you call that a hit and run," Rivalz asked aloud to no one as he saw the truck leaving in a hurry. "Stop the vehicle. Surrender now and you will have the possible of defending yourself in court. Stop and surrender at once," came a man voice on a speaker of one of the three combat VTOL and one of VTOL guns ready and began to fire at the truck with waring shots. "Give up now or we will shoot to kill," the same voice from before said.

"What do we do now?! That's the army," Nagata asked as he got the truck under control after trying to avoid the shots from the VTOL. "Have you forgotten? That's why I am here for," Kallen replied as she removed her hat to show her face and that she was also wearing her red headband around her forehead. The truck entered a highway tunnel that was able to provide some cover for the truck for a time. Lelouch heard the sound of a door opening and figure that it was Kallen entering the trailer from the cab. Kallen entered the trailer and saw Lelouch standing by a set of steps of stairs. "Can you use the subway via the Azabu root," Kallen asked as she smiles at Lelouch and begun to remove the uniform clothing that cover her outfit that she refers to as her resistance fighter outfit. "Kallen! Let's use it here! Why not," Nagata asked from the cab. Kallen turned to Nagata and answered back with bit of anger in her voice, "Because that would mean a blood bath!" "You're right," Nagata replied back after a moment to think about it and Kallen closed the door.

With the door closed, this gave Kallen and Lelouch a bit of private time. "What do we have here? A stowaway," Kallen asked with a smile. "Would you believe me if I said that I was trying to be a good Samaritan when I saw this truck crash not long ago," Lelouch replied back as he walked toward Kallen. "I probably would not have believed that and would probably shot you when I first saw you," Kallen said as she moved towards Lelouch. "Knowing you. You would have used a knife and not a gun given that time back at Ashford Academy," Lelouch replied as he hugged Kallen and gave a quick little spin. Kallen wrapped her arms around Lelouch's neck and gave him a quick kiss on the lips. "What are your orders, Zero," Kallen asked as Lelouch stopped the spin and let Kallen moved back a bit in his arm. "I want you to show the enemy before your strength in fighting for Japan and that they should fear the coming of the Crimson Queen of the Black King and the future Knight of Zero. How does that sound to you Q1," Lelouch replied in the voice style of Zero. "I like sound of that very much," Kallen answered with a grin on her face.

Lelouch released Kallen from his arms and she handed him the hand radio that she had in the pocket of the uniform that she was wearing. Lelouch and Kallen moved up the stairs to get to the cockpit of the Glasgow and as Kallen entered the cockpit, she handed a bag to Lelouch that she placed in the Glasgow. "Once I get the witch out of her prison, the both of us will head towards the frames that Jermiah left and join the battle. Then we will show Clovis, the Britannias, and especially Suzaku what the future Black Knights can really do," Lelouch said to Kallen as she was getting her properly fixed Glasgow ready. " I understand. Just make sure that you stay safe," Kallen said as she looked towards Lelouch. "I will make sure that I do," Lelouch replied back with a smile. Lelouch walked back down and moved towards the front of the trailer to make sure that he would not fall out of the trailer when Kallen jumps out of the trailer in the Glasgow.

The VTOL was about to shoot at the truck again, but suddenly something shot out from a gap on the back door of the trailer, and it hit the VTOL which destroyed it. One of the pilots in the two remaining VTOL said, "A slash harken?!" Then the back door opens up completely and reveals a red color Knightmare frame that was known as Glasgow. "A Knightmare," the VTOL pilot said as he now knew where the slash harkens came from. The red Glasgow jumped out of the trailer and landed on the road of the highway with its land spinner deployed. The black door of the trailer closed back up once the Glasgow was out. "You fellas know full well what this badass mother can do," Kallen said as begun to pilot the Glasgow to its fullest with her piloting skills. It had been a long time since she had piloted this machine and had gotten use to the Guren. The Glasgow moved around avoiding the fired shots from the VTOL and used its slash harken to take down another VTOL in the same fashion of the first VTOL being destroyed.

With the destruction of the second VTOL, different aircraft unit shown up and this unit was a KMF Transport VTOL. This Transport VTOL was designed to transport Knightmare frames threw the air in a quick respond. "The rest of you, back off. I'll take on this pilot," said the voice of Jeremiah that came over the radio from the Transport VTOL. Kallen had the Glasgow retract the slash harken with the cable line back into position as she looked at the Transport VTOL that shown up and thought, 'Well Jeremiah it is time to put on a show for these people.' "I can only assume you dug that obsolete relic out of some scrap heap," Jeremiah said over the Sutherland's speaker and the Transport VTOL had released the holding arms on the Sutherland frame that begun to fall towards the ground. Kallen fired a slash harken only for Jermiah to stop it with the Sutherland's own slash harken. "An over the hill Glasgow is no match for a Sutherland! Not to mention a filthy terrorist who spurns the compassion of our glorious Emperor," Jeremaih said on the speaker as he piloted the Sutherland into a spin to land safely and ready the assault rifle that was equipped with a grenade launcher to fire on the Glasgow. 'I got to make it look good to fool them that I am only serving both Lelouch and Nunnally,' Jeremiah thought as also hope that Lelouch will be safe threw this for a second time.

Jeremiah fired a grenade round at the Glasgow, but Kallen had moved the Glasgow at the perfect moment to avoid both the hit and the explosion that comes with the grenade. "Kallen, we should both split up! Both of us can't risk being killed! Run for it," Nagata said over the Glasgow's radio as he had seen the explosion on the truck's side mirror by the driver's door. "But...," Kallen was going to say until another Sutherland frame came out of nowhere in front of the truck and fired its gun at the truck which Nagata was forced to turn left onto an off ramp to avoid the shot. "Simpleminded Eleven," said a voice of a woman that was no other than Villetta Nu. Kallen turned the Glasgow right at Villetta's Sutherland and rushed right towards her. Then Kallen deployed a weapon that she did not have the last time, and this was a Knightmare combat knife. Villetta was taken back by knife that the Glasgow had and was barely able to avoid the slash from the blade, but the knife was able to cut right at the Sutherland's head where the Factsphere camera was located.

This gave Villetta a hard time seeing with the loss of the main camera and was not prepare when the Glasgow had followed up with a second attacked that would have been a kill strike if it had not been for Jeremiah yelling on the radio, "VILLETTE, QUICK UESD THE EJECTION SYSTEM!" Villette did that and the Sutherland's cockpit ejected from the frame and went flying away from the highway. "Sorry for leaving you alone with that Eleven," Villette said on the radio. "That's ok I never guess that one of these Elevens would have such skills," Jeremiah radioed back as he knew how well Kallen was skilled. After all Lord Lelouch would not just pick any girl to be his future queen that did not have something special about them. "I will admit. I really like your spirit," Jeremaih said the Sutherland's speaker as he readied the Sutherland's tonfa that was mounted on the arms and went to engage the Glasgow.

~Scene changes to the outside of the army base in the Toyko Settlement~

It seems like Prince Clovis had gotten the army involved with General Bartley was overseeing. "Ah-ha," said a man that had lavender color hair as he was looking at Bartley. This man name is Llyod Asplund. "What are you doing," Bartley asked as knew how Lloyd acted towards people. "Looking at a man who blundered. Am I right," Lloyd replied as he had an all-knowing type of smile on face. "Why, you," Bartley was saying but was cut off by Lloyd adding, "You really screwed this one up. terrorists came along and stole whatever it was that you and Prince Clovis were secretly working on. Retrieving it is simple, but you want to sweep up all of their compatriots in addition. Let the terrorists go and you can find their hideout, too." Lloyd moved his head to look over his left shoulder towards lady with indigo color hair that was standing there and said, "Congratulations! Your reasoning was spot on, Cecile."

The indigo hair woman was Cecile Croomy and serve as assistant to Lloyd. Cecile was taken back by the praise that Lloyd gave her and replied, "It was nothing. I just thought it was strange." Bartley cut her off from any sentence she would have said as he wanted to know where they were here as he said, "Okay, That's enough. What is it the Special Corps wants out of this?" Lloyd looked bakc to Bartley and answered, "I'm merely saying that I'd like to assist with the cleanup!" "To assist," Bartley replied back with a question as he was confused by Lloyd answered. "Correct. Because it's data I want," Lloyd answered but before anything else was asked by Bartley it was Cecile that had asked, "Excuse me, but what in the world have they just stolen anyway?" Bartley 's eyebrows twitched a bit and then answered with a lie by saying, "Chemical weapons. In other words, its poison gas."

~Scene changes to the tunnel where the truck was in before in it shown the Shinjuku Ghetto~

There was a message that was going over the Britannia's radio network that said the following, "The terrorist are hiding in the subway system." The next think that if there was anyone that was outside in the Shinjuku Ghetto would have seen was a bunch of Britannia's large transport carrier planes in the air. "Your mission is to locate the weapon that they've stolen. Investigate the old subway system that runs through the Eleven resident district in the Shinjuku Ghetto," the voice added more to the message as the carrier planes were deploying the soldiers that were inside to the ground by air to land cable lines as the carrier planes hovered in the air. Once the soldiers were on the ground, they started to move towards any entrance ways that led to the subway as the messaged continued with, "Report in the moment you spot them. Recovery of the target will be handled by us, the Royal Guard. You people bear the honorary title of Britannians now, but you were born Elevens! Therefore, the stench of these monkeys ought to be a familiar one!" Then shown an aircraft was shown in the air and inside was man that looked to be in charge and this man was giving the message over the raid as finished saying with this, "If you want to earn the right to carry arms, then show some results! This is your opportunity to show your loyalty to Britannia!" There was a response over the radio from all the soldiers answered back as one, "Yes, my lord!"

~Scene changes to the truck in the subway~

From the moment that the door closed to the trailer after Kallen left in the Glasgow, Lelouch began to work on opening one of the panels on the canister of the so call poison gas that Kallen and the other members of the Kozuki Resistance. Given when Lelouch had modify the canister to release that color smokescreen when he rescued Suzaku before. The bag that Kallen had handed him earlier was filled with tools to help with the canister. It took a little bit of time, but Lelouch was able to slide part of the panel to make enough opening for a person to get either in or out with no problem. Lelouch climb inside as he was thankful to have a headband light to help him see in the dark. Once inside he found C.C. wearing a white straitjacket that kept her from moving her arms and also a gag around her mouth. Lelouch removed the gag and C.C. said when her mouth was free, "You just had to take your time in rescuing me didn't you."

"That is not my fault that a certain witch did not mention where she would be at," Lelouch replied as he started to undo the part of the straitjacket that kept her arms unusable. "I guess that was a mistake on my part, but it is not like I could had said something since Clovis, and a few others had made sure that see where I was at the time with blindfolding me, keeping me in dark containers when transporting me, and blight lights when they performed their experiment," C.C. said as there was nothing she could had said to get her out months ago. "Now all we to do next to is for both of us to get out of this trailer and maybe able to avoid Suzaku. On the off chance that is not possibly make sure that he does not see you at the least," Lelouch said as this was part of the plan was at this time. Once Lelouch and C.C. was out of the trailer in Shinjuku, the both of them would head towards the two Sutherlands that Jeremiah had stashed for them.

Once Lelouch was able to free C.C. hands, both of them was able to get out of the canister and Lelouch made sure that fix the panel back to the way it was before. Lelouch then place the tools back in the bag and place it as closed to the door that led to the cab of the truck. Lelouch figured that when Nagata blows the truck up with the explosives, it would destroy the tool bag in process and even is some was recoverable it would be damaged to the point to not find any evidence on it on who used it. Not that it matters given that both Lelouch and Kallen wore gloves when using the tool and with the bag being make with fabric cloth it will burn away. Both Lelouch and C.C. made sure to brace themselves as there would a bit of a crash that was going to happen with truck. Lelouch had some smoke bomb balls at the ready for when the trailer side door is to open. He would use these to cover both his and C.C. escape and block Suzaku vision.

It was not long with the truck's front tires got struck in big hole. Nagata was still hitting the gas petal. "The tire's stuck...Please, Ohgi... Find me," Nagata said as he was bleeding from the left side of his body from the shots that Villette fired at him. Nagata was bleeding badly, and he was probably closed to dying by this point. With a little bit of strength that he could muster he flipped a switch that caused the side trailer door to open. Unknown to Nagata but was known to Lelouch and C.C. that there was a nearby Britannia soldier that heard the truck hitting the hole. The soldier saw the truck and then saw the door opening, but before he saw what was inside there was a sudden cloud of smoke that formed. C.C. made a run toward the same way that her and Lelouch took before.

Just as Lelouch was about to follow her, the smoke screen was about fade away. It would seem that the smoke bomb balls did not last long as he was hoping for that smoke screen for him to be unseen as well. It looked like that Lelouch was going to do plan B for this. Lelouch jumped towards the side to make sure not to be seen for moment. Lelouch had jumped by the door to the cab and that door opened a bit and decided to look. Lelouch had seen Nagata laid out on both of the seats with the top left body was cover with blood and appeared to be passed out for the moment. Lelouch wished that he could do something to help, but he was not a trained medic or even have a first aid kit with him. 'I don't know you a whole lot, but I will make sure that what you have done today will not be in vain,' Lelouch though as he looked at Nagata as he also gave a small Japanese type of prayer for the dying man. This was best that Lelouch could do for the man that fight to free Japan.

The solder's helmet had zoomed in on the trailer door that open and seen the canister that was to be poison gas. The soldier had lifted his left arm to the right side of chest to send a beacon of his location of where the truck and poison gas was. "4-0-4 has sighted the target," radioed in by a Britannia solider that had received the transmitted beacon. "Roger. Prepare for recovery," said a royal guard that was giving the order message to when the army entered Shinjuku. It was then that the soldier had caught sight of someone by the bomb as they exited the now opened doors. Lelouch had played the part of someone that had a headache from hitting their head on a hard object. Just as Lelouch's feet touch the ground, he had heard the soldier yell, "THAT'S ENOUGH MINDLESS MURDER!"

Lelouch turned to see a solder running towards him and then jump a little off the as he made his body do spinning barrel roll that was followed by a flying left wide kick. Lelouch moved his arms up to block the kick. Lelouch knew with the strength he now had from all the month-long exercise he would not even bud a bit from the kick that he knew that came from Suzaku, but Lelouch had fake that the Suzaku's kick had got to him that sent him to the ground only about two feet away from where he was at. "Wait I'm not one of," Lelouch started to say before Suzaku had pinned him the by placing his left hand just below Lelouch's neck. The mouth guard mask opened up for Suzaku to speak more clearly and said, "Planning to use Poison gas! Don't play dumb with me!" "Get off me...! I'm not here by choice. Are you saying that canister is poison gas," Lelouch tried his best to talk with the force that Suzaku was using on his left hand.

It was then that Suzaku had taken a good look at who he was pinned to the ground and said, "My god!" "What is it now," Lelouch replied as he felt that Suzaku had let up on his hold of the left hand. "Lelouch? It's me, Suzaku," Suzaku said as he removed his helmet to show Lelouch his face. The moment that Lelouch saw Suzaku's face, everything that Suzaku did the moment that Lelouch become Zero from using the Lancelot all the way to Nunnally's death. All Lelouch was wishing for was a gun and placed a bullet right between Suzaku's eyes, but Lelouch would not do that as he had promised Kallen to let her beat the crap out of Suzaku herself. Lelouch made sure to act surprised and asked in a shocked voice, "Suzaku, you became a Britannia soldier?" As Suzaku let Lelouch off the ground for him to stand face to face with each other.

"What about you? You're a...," Suzaku was going to replied but was cut off by Lelouch when asked as he heard what Suzaku was going to ask, "What are you saying?" Before any questions could be answered, there was a bright light that came off the canister. The reason being is that when the truck crashed in the hole, it had shaken a part off and caused damaged to the canister. Then the canister was opening up and Suzaku had tackled Lelouch to the ground in attempted to save himif the canister was going to explode. The canister fully opened and after a few seconds of nothing happening, the two looked at the canister and saw that there was nothing inside. As Suzaku was looking at the empty canister, he would miss the smirk that Lelouch had on his face as he heard Suzaku asked, "What happened to the poison gas?"

~Scene changes to where the Glasgow was hiding in a service tunnel~

Kallen and Jeremiah had fought for a bit trying not to damage the Glasgow as much given that it would be need very soon. Kallen had gotten away but using the entrance to an old abandon service tunnel in Shinjuku. Once she had the Glasgow in the tunnel, she had headed for the same spot that use used last time to communicate with Ohgi at. The mere mention of or even hearing Ohgi's name make Kallen grit her teeth in anger at how Ohgi was part of the Black Knights betrayal of Zero. Even time that Kallen had to talk to Ohgi it took a lot from Kallen to act as normal when talking or if they were around each other. It was not long till Kallen had reach the location and had raised the Glasgow radio antenna up towards an open manhole covers in the road above her.

It was not long for Kallen to get in touch with Ohgi on the radio. "In all the confusion. I left it in the coat," Kallen replied over the radio to Ohgi as she made sure to say that she gave the radio to Lelouch back on the truck. "It's okay. The Glasgow's circuits are usable. So, were we right about what we got are hands on," Ohgi said back to Kallen and then asked about the canister that was in the truck. "I think so. I probably is poison gas, like intelligence said," Kallen answered as she knew what that canister really was. "And Nagata," Ohgi asked as he was concern about one of his friends and ally. "I don't know. I think he made it underground. If he is, then it would be near impossible for him to radio in on where he is at," Kallen answered.

~Scene changes back to where Lelouch is at~

Both Lelouch and Suzaku took a moment to look inside the now open canister and seen that there was absolutely nothing that was inside the canister. Both Lelouch and Suzaku exited the trailer and got back on the ground. "Suzaku, you said that was poison gas. Are you sure about that," Lelouch asked as he hid an all-knowing smile at his performance that he was doing now. "That is what was told to us in the briefing. Maybe this truck was set up as a decoy," Suzaku replied as he tried to make some sense of what was going on. "Stinking monkey. What do you think you are doing. Being an honorary Britannian will not excuse you," said the commander of the royal guards that show up with a few others soldier with some blinding lights on behind them. "Sir, the canister opened up and there was nothing inside," Suzaku said as he walked towards the commander to explain. "What are you saying," the commander asked as he was told by Bartley what was in the canister.

"I believe that this truck was merely a decoy for the thief of the poison gas," Suzaku answered as he wanted to make sure that Lelouch was safe and also to make sure of who Lelouch truly was unknown to them. "That is impossible. This truck was used to get that canister, and no swaps was made given that it was being tracked the whole time. Do you take me for a fool," the commander asked as anger was beginning to sound in his voice. "It is the truth sir. This student was here, and he saw the same thing that I saw," Suzaku said as he hoped that with Lelouch being a sort of witness would help them out. "How do I know that this student is not really a terrorist in disguise to misled you. The terrorist could had simply removed the contents from inside and this so-called student is just a distraction," the commander said as he need to retrieve that person no matter what. 'It seems like this situation is going to get back really quick,' Lelouch thought as he made sure to ready his body to make a run to where C.C. was at.

"In light of your outstanding military achievements I'm going to give you a chance. Private Kururugi, take this gun and execute this terrorist," the commander said, and he handed a handgun to Suzaku to use to kill Lelouch. Suzaku looked at the gun in the commander's hand and then back to the commander to say, "But he's not a terrorist! He's a civilian who got caught up in all this!" "You insubordinate little...! That's an order. Didn't you swear your loyalty and your life to Britannia," the commander asked with more anger in his voice as he looked right at Suzaku. "Yes, but... but I can't," Suzaku replied with determination. "What," the commander asked as he was now getting angrier. "I won't do it, sir. I won't shoot a civilian. I can't fellow your orders, sir," Suzaku replied back as he closed his eyes at the commander and turned his head to Lelouch before he opened them again to see Lelouch. Suzaku believed in what he just said, and he could never r bring himself to shoot his childhood friend.

"Very well," the commander said as he repositions the gun in his hand. "Suzaku," Lelouch tried to call out, but it was too late as the commander used the gun and shot Suzaku in a fatal spot at the waist. Suzaku fell to the ground as the commander looked at Lelouch. "Well, a Britannian schoolboy, not a good day to cut class. Capture the boy and bring him in for interrogation. We will find out what this so call student knows," the commander order to the soldiers. "Yes, my lord," as all the solider there said at once. Back in the cab of the truck it would seems like that the noise from the talking had woken Nagata. He began to move his right arm over to some buttons by the steering wheel.

'I'm sorry that I won't be able to see the two of you again,' Nagata thought as he looked at a picture that he placed by the buttons he was reaching for. The picture was of him along with his wife and their child. "Death to... Britannia... Long live Japan," Nagata said with his last breath as he pressed the red button. This caused the front of the truck to explode that created a distraction for Lelouch to run in a burst of speed right to where C.C. was wait at. The explosion from the truck burst right through the concrete above and black smoke was seen all around up above ground.

~Scene changes to the Britannia G-1 mobile command base~

A G-1 base was moving into position at the Shinjuku Ghetto. As that was happening, the royal guard commander was informing Bartly about what happened and including that the canister was completely emptied when it opened. "You call yourselves the Royal Guards," Bartly said in a fury of anger in his voice at the report that he was giving. "Forgive me, my lord. We were going to interrogate one of the terrorists that was by the truck, but with the truck explosion caused us to be distracted and he got away," the commander radio back from his location. "It seems like it was a mistake to trust you people on doing this assignment in the first place," Bartly replied still with anger. "I am having some of the Royal Guards spread out threw the tunnels. With any chance we may find either the terrorist or even that woman by chance," the commander radio as he gave sure orders beforehand.

"It seems like the plan moved to the next phase," Clovis said as he was sitting on a throne that was on the bridge of the G-1 base. "But, but, Your Highness," Bartly started to say as he turned to face Clovis. "If knowledge of that woman gets out. I'll be disinherited. Tell the officials back home we're carrying out a planned urban renewal here. As Clovis, the third prince of the empire, I command you all! Destroy the Shinjuku Ghetto! Make sure that no one is alive," Clovis order as the staff members that was on the bridge began to send out the command orders to all Britannia army soldiers. The soldiers began to carry out their orders and the Sutherland frames were being deployed as well, but the strangest thing occur to all the soldiers is that the Shinjuku Ghetto area was completely empty of people.

Jeremiah had grouped up with the army that was firing on the empty building. "Supervisor Jeremiah, General Bartly request that you take command of-," that was as far as the soldier got as he was telling Jeremiah about the orders that he was given. "Bartly has staff officers. Something is strange about there being no people around. I am going to investigate what is going on," Jeremaih said as he drove his Sutherland away and headed out to meet up with Lelouch before heading to the next spot where the Glasgow was at. As the destruction of the Shinjuku happened, Clovis let a grin formed on his face as he looked on. Back in one of the tunnels, both Lelouch and C.C. were running to their destination as all around the tunnel was shaking like an earthquake that was caused by the Britannia forces.

~Scene changes to the outside the G-1 base by an Armored Personnel Carrier~

"Not there," Lloyd asked as he looked at Cecile as he was sitting down on some stairs as a seat. "It looks like he's gone somewhere on the battlefield," Cecile replied as the two of them were waiting for Jeremiah to show up. It seems like Cecile was given the update on what happen with Jeremiah. "Even though we brought the Lancelot here, " Lloyd said as he held the activation key to the Lancelot that was right next to the two as they looked at the Lancelot that was covered by a big sheet with only the right root showing. "Now what'll we do," Cecile asked she looks from the Lancelot to Lloyd for the answered. "I don't know. We steamrolled our way in here, but we don't have a devicer to use it," Lloyd replied back as he wanted the data from the Lancelot.

~Scene changes to an abandon warehouse in the Shinjuku Ghetto~

Both Lelouch and C.C had reached the warehouse where the tunnel exit had taken them. Once the two exit the tunnel into the warehouse, they would head over to the Sutherland frames and wait for Jeremiah. He would be coming to give the access code to the Britannia army battle network that would show all the information on where everyone is at along with access to the radio frequency. There was only to be possible two things that would probably hold him up. One would be the appearance of Villetta Nu and as long as he does not come across her here, then there would be no chance of her getting Shirley involved before Mao showed up. The other would be the royal guards that were back at the truck showing up here before Lelouch and C.C. That problem was not going to be an issue for Lelouch.

Lelouch had taken out a small case from his pocket and opened it up. Inside the case was a contract lens that C.C. had given him to keep the Geass that as always active in his left eye. Lelouch had practiced a bit with his Geass and found that he could still use his Geass with only one eye. Lelouch had remember that Kitsune told him that because of the strange ability that Charles had in C's World, it had allowed Charles to talk to dead while there. It was because of this that allow Charles to know that it was Lelouch that killed Clovis the first time and it was simply enough for Charles to connect the dots of Lelouch being Zero. Lelouch had placed the contact lens in his right eye. Lelouch figured that if Charles knows that Lelouch had Geass, then Lelouch could make sure that Charles does not know that Lelouch had mastered his Geass.

Before the two had reached the stairs, Lelouch had made sure to put his phone on quiet mode. This was done because Lelouch wanted to try to have the upper hand this time. The two climbed up the stairs and took a quick look at seen that the warehouse was empty. Both Lelouch and C.C. were now in the warehouse and then the two heard the voice of the commander, "Report." "So far. We have not seen any Elevens. Also, to according to our map of the old city, the exit from that tunnel should be here," a Britannian soldier said as they were right outside the door to the warehouse. "Hopefully we made it here to catch that terrorist before he escapes," the commander said as both him and the soldiers that were with him entered the warehouse. Lelouch and C.C. walked towards the back of the warehouse. Lelouch wanted to make sure that the royal guards were inside first before he got rid of them.

"So nice for all of you to join me here," Lelouch said with a grin as he walked right into the light that came from the hole in the roof. "What an appropriate location to find a terrorist hiding, but soon this place with be your end if you provide us with the information on where the woman is," the commander asked as he along with the soldier aimed their guns at Lelouch. "Before that. Just answer me just get some things off my chest," Lelouch said as he moved his right arm up and had his right hand cover his left eye as he looked at the enemy before him. "How should a Britannian who detests his own country live his life," Lelouch asked as he glares with a hard look from his right eye. "Are you some kind of radical," the commander replied as he was trying to figure out what Lelouch was going to do and then the commander's nerves shook for a moment as he seen the look in Lelouch's uncovered right eye.

"What's wrong? Why not Shoot? Your opponent is just a schoolboy. Or have you finally realized? The only ones who should be kill are those who are prepared to be killed," Lelouch replied back as he moved his right hand to show his left eye before he activated his Geass. "What's happening here," the commander asked as he was now shaking at what he was seeing. "I, the ex-prince Lelouch Vi Britannia, command your now and my order is for all of you to die," Lelouch said as he gave his Geass command to the royal guards. Soon the soldiers pointed their guns at each other and for the commander he took the gun in hand and pointed right in his neck. "Happily, Your Highness! Fire," the commander said under the order of Lelouch's Geass with a smile on his face. Soon gunshot was heard coming from the warehouse and if anyone was to enter said warehouse, they would see dead bodies of the royal guard with blood all around them.

"I must say that was quite the performance," C.C. said as she steps out from behind a beam that was hiding her. "Given how I had to deal with them before, I felt the sense of doing it once again," Lelouch replied as he checked his phone and had seen that he missed a called from Shirley. He had deciding to bite the so-called bullet and call Shirley. As Lelouch was hearing the ringing sound as he made the call, he had begun to think about Shirley and his feeling towards her. If he was honest with himself, he had felt that he has no romantic feelings for her. Of course, he knew that Shirley has feelings for him and is even in love with him as well. During the time on Miyake Island, he had found out from Milly the reason that Shirley was in love with him. It seems like in Shirley's mind is a brave knight and princess scenario.

Don't get Lelouch wrong he is glad to have Shirley as a friend, but he does not see Shirley in the same way as she does. "Lulu, what in the world have you been doing? Where are you now? If you keep cutting class, you'll get held back," Shirley said the moment she answered the phone and going off like she was his official girlfriend. "There was a problem when me and Rivalz were heading back and got separated. I probably won't be back until later tonight. If you would not mind if you can inform Sayoko for me. It seems like there is barely any cell service where I am," Lelouch replied over the phone and then he hung up to not hear any complaint from Shirley. He turned off his phone as both he and C.C. headed for the exit of the warehouse.

The two did not have far to walk to where they found two Sutherlands that were hidden along with Jeremiah. "I am so glad to see you Master Lelouch," Jeremiah said as he handed a small notebook to Lelouch. "Thanks, and you two. Now to commence with the next part of the plan," Lelouch replied as he accepted the notebook. Jeremiah nodded his head and entered his Sutherland to head off to where the Glasgow was going to be at. Both Lelouch and C.C. entered the cockpit of the Sutherlands and began to start them up. Once the startup was done, Lelouch began to enter the codes needed. With that out of the way, both Lelouch and C.C. took off and headed straight towards the battle.

~Scene changes to the inside of the medical trucks by the G-1~

"So are we having a bad day," Lloyd said with his voice being a bit louder than usual. Lloyd's voice was enough to wake up a sleeping Suzaku. Suzaku was laying on a bed with his shirt off as it had to be removed to wrap some bandages around the stomach area on the body. Suzaku was sill off of it as he woke up and was trying to get his bearing. "Looks like you missed a chance to go to heaven, Private Kururugi," Lloyd said as he had a smile on his face. "I did? Where," Suzaku was saying as he quicky sat up but the pain had cut him off. "Hmm? Ah, we're still in the Shinjuku Ghetto," Lloyd answered as he figured out what Suzaku was going to ask. "This medical truck in close by the G-1 base that Prince Clovis. With the Prince nearby this is probably the safest place anywhere for now," Cecile answered as she decided to explain to Suzaku since Lloyd was not going to.

"This was what saved your life, Mr. Suzaku," Cecile said as she went to retrieve the item. "You're lucky it was under your protective suit because that's what deflected the bullet," Lloyd said as Cecile returned with the item in question. "Is it a keepsake," Cecile asked as she presented her hands that was covered by a towel with the item that was on top of the towel to Suzaku. "Yeah, very," Suzaku replied as he took the item which was an old pocket watch with the glass being crack being seen. "You Elevens believe that gods live inside of everything, even objects, don't you. I guess...," as that was a far as Lloyd was saying before he was interrupted by Suzaku. "Is Lelou- What's the latest on the situation," Suzaku asked a totally different question from what he was going to ask.

"IT had been radio in that poison gas has been released, but there had been no reports on any casualties that have died from it. I guess that is to be given that all of Shinjuku is devoid of any Elevens being here," Lloyd answered as he tried to wrap his brain on what was going on. "I heard that the perpetrators have not been caught yet," Cecile added it on the information that was known so far. "They haven't yet, huh," Suzaku said as he was worried about Lelouch and forgot to mention about the poison gas not here. "There are also reports of terrorist in the ghetto and they are firing on the troops," Cecile said as that was the latest news that came through. "Private Kururugi, how much experience do you have in piloting a Knightmare frame," Lloyd asked as a smile appeared on his face as he looks at Suzaku.

"But there's no way an Eleven would be made a knight," Suzaku answered as this was the truth that everyone knows that honorary Britannians are not allow to pilot frames. "Well, supposing you could," Lloyd replied as he held up the activation key for the Lancelot frame. "Congraulations, the only Knightmare of its kind awaits you! Once you take the controls of this big beauty everything will change, you and your world," Lloyd said with his smile turning to grin that expressed his happiness with find a pilot for the Lancelot and the data that he would be getting from the fight. "Whether you want it to or not," Cecile added as she was concern for the wellbeing of Suzaku getting that he was consider injured right now.

~Scene changes on the streets of the Shinjuku Ghetto~

There was a Britannian tank that was coming down the street. As it was readying a shot from its cannon, all of suddenly something burst out of the ground in front of the tank. The object was a slash harken, and it was heading right for the tank. The slash harkens had hit the tank and it caused the tank to blow up. The hit from the slash harken must had hit where the cannon shell round was stored at and that was the caused. Then slash harken was retracted back to where it came from and out of the hole that was made was none other than the red Glasgow. "Take that you Britannian dogs," Kallen said with a grin on her face. Now this was a battlefield should be. Just two forces fighting with no civilians around. With no civilians around meant that Kallen would be free to fight to her best.

"Kallen, are you okay," Ohgi asked over the radio. Ohgi had rounded up some of the others in the Kozuki resistance to try to find Nagat, but with the Britainnia army all over Shinjuku that was hard to do. The bombing was no help at all. "I am doing fine I am trying to take out as many as I can," Kallen replied as she had the Glasgow moving. It would be bad to stay in one spot for too long. "We are using what weapons that we have on hand, but that will not last to much longer," Ohgi said as he knew that they were no match for the force that Britannia has right now. It was then that Kallen saw a combat VTOL in the air and took a shot with the slash harken. The combat VTOL was hit, and it exploded from the attack as Kallen had the Glasgow retract the slash harken back.

It was then that two Sutherland frame came from behind her. "It's our Glasgow friend," said Jereimah as he was in one of the two Sutherlands. Kallen actted surprised and moved the Glasgow behind building for cover as the Sutherlands fired at her. "I have to focus right now Ohgi. I have two Sutherlands on me right now," Kallen said over the radio as she had the Glasgow dodge the attacks coming at her. It was then that Kallen hear a beeping sound and went to take a look. The beeping was a warning sound that the Glasgow only had a certain amount of time on the power left. "Only 30 minutes left," Kallen said as she gave a smile as she knew that he was about to make his appearance.

"The west entrance. If you use the tracks to move towards the west entrance," Lelouch voice came over the Glasgow's radio. "Who is this? How do you know this code," Kallen replied back, but she had a smile on her face. "I don't believe that is important right now. If you wanna win, you're just gonna have to trust me," Lelouch answered back as he was monitoring everything within the Sutherland. "To win," Kallen said, but she was really thinking in her head, 'I trust you completely my black king.' Kallen had the Glasgow jump up on a bridge way that had a set of train tracks on it. Kallen lined up the Glasgow's Land spinners with the track and was going down the tracks west. "Okay, what am I supposed to do now," Kallen asked as she was focus on not messing up. Kallen looked a screen that shown what was behind her and saw two Sutherlands coming up behind.

Kallen looked forward and saw a train that was coming straight at her. "Since you trusted me, you're gonna win. Jump onto the train," Lelouch radio in as he was set up for the next part of the plan. Kallen's smile turned into a grin and replied, "Gotcha!" The Glasgow jumped into the air at the right moment and landed on one the containers. The Glasgow began to jump from one container to the next. The Sutherland that was the one that was being piloted by Jeremiah. Jeremiah had used the Sutherland's left arm to force stopped the train. "You think that you can get away like that. You! Go after that Glasgow," Jeremiah said as the second Sutherland jumped towards the now stopped train, but the moment that it was in the air it was attack by two slash harkens that force the cockpit to eject as the frame was destroyed.

Jeremiah looked to see where the slash harkens came from and saw another Sutherland frame that was positioned in a hole of a rundown building, "What the...? Shot by friendly fire? What's your name and your unit? We're after the Glasgow," Jeremiah demands and then another Sutherland shown up on top of another building. The Second Sutherland began to fire its assault rifle at Jeremiah, but only around the legs at first. "Oh my god, terrorist," Jeremiah said as he turned to fire its gun at the first Sutherland. "AAAAAH," Kallen was screaming as the Glasgow was rushing back and right towards Jeremiah. Jeremiah activated the cockpit ejector system and was soon flying away from the frame that he was using. 'Everything is now in place my lord," Jeremiah thought as he was watching the Sutherland that Lelouch was in. "You saved me. How did you get ahold of two Sutherlands," Kallen asked as she looked to where the two Sutherland were but soon seen that both were no longer there.

'Everything is going to plan," Kallen thought as she saw Ohgi and some others running right to her. "Kallen! What the hell was that radio message earlier," Ohgi asked as he had heard what Lelouch said over the radio. "You were contacted as well," Kallen replied from inside the Glasgow. "Sure did. And Yoshida's group ought to be here soon," Ohgi answered before all of them heard a strange noise that came from the handheld radios. Are you the one in charge," Lelouch asked as he was watching from the Sutherland, but he always knew Ohgi's answer was going to be. "Ah, yeah," Ohgi answered back as he was not sure about what was going on. ""I present to you the cargo in that train over there. They're tools for your victory. If you want to use them to win, then follow my orders," Lelouch said over the radio as he saw Kallen used the Glasgow to open one the cargo containers of the train.

Some of the other resistance fighters were soon opening up the others cargo containers. When all of the doors for the cargo containers were open, they were both shocked and surprised by the contents that were inside. The cargo containers were filled with Sutherland frames, weapons, and other things that would prove useful. All of the resistance fighters were taken back and they soon realized that they may even have a chance to fight back against the Britannian right now in Shinjuku. "The female polit of the Glasgow," Lelouch radioed in. "Yes," Kallen answered making sure that she kept up the act of not knowing was really talking to her. "Stay where you are. Your unit's gonna run decoy. Also, your codename is going to be Q-1 from here on out. You got that," Lelouch said as he had a grin as he knew that Kallen was going to have a smile on her face as she was going to enjoy what was going to come.

"Understood. What should we call you? I would kind of like a name to call you by," Kallen replied back as she had a grin on her face at hearing her codename Q-1. "You can simply call me, Zero. By the way, what is the status of the Glasgow energy filler," Lelouch or rather Zero replied back as he figured out this was Kallen's way of getting the name Zero out for the Resistance fighters. "It is about 15 minutes' worth at the moment," Kallen answered back as she glad that Lelouch had caught on which what she was asking in secret. "Go ahead and recharge it. I will contract you all with your next instructions in 10 minutes," Zero said as he cut off the radio signal as he begun to think about what was to come.

~Scene changed to the Britannian G-1 mobile commander base control room~

"There is terrorist that hiding in the ruins threw out the Shinjuku Ghettos. The only things that came do are hit and run tactics, but they are only a minor resistance against us. They pose little threat to our vastly superior army," Bartley was saying in a report style to Prince Clovis. "We know that. Moving on," Clovis replied in a bored tone in his voice. "Understood, your Highness. The only thing that is strange at the moment is that there are no citizens present in Shinjuku. It is almost like they were removed or even warned beforehand. Then there is the matter of the gas capsules if she...," Bartley was saying before he was cut off by Clovis.

"Make sure that the pubic believe that is what we are after from the terrorist," Clovis ordered as he knew what he would face if the truth was to come out about what he was doing. "Yes. We'll keep searching for her," Bartley replied as he knows how important that woman was. "Either way I want her captured dead or alive," Clovis ordered as he began to be in deep thought.

~Scene changed with the resistance fighter's location~ *(From this point it is going to be a battlefield scene)

After 10minutes had passed. Zero had radioed back in with the resistance fighters and begun to give each of them different codenames. Like Ohgi code name being P-1 and Tamaki being P-5. "Before we begin our counterattack on the Britannians forces, I want to let all of you know something as I believe that this is important information. I was able to learn that Prince Clovis has a new Knightmare frame and currently there is no pilot. But that can charge in an instant. The only informationn that I was able to get is that this frame is prototype seventh generation and it is the only one of its kind at the moment. The physical characteristic of it being white and gold. I want all of you to be aware of it just in case if any of you sees it," Zero explained the best he could over the radio. "How did you come across this information," Ohgi asked as he had to wonder about knowing such things.

"Britannian is my enemy just as they are yours. I believe it is always best to gather all the information that you can on your enemy before a battle begins. There is a saying that a battle is already won before you step foot on a battlefield. The reason for this saying is if you study your enemy then it is possible to beat them," Zero answered back on the radio and many of the resistance fighters had nodded their heads in agreement at what he said. "I understand," Ohgi replied as he could almost see what Zero was saying. But that saying I mention before could be argue in some situations," Zero added as he begins to think on all his past battles. "What do you mean," Ohgi asked as he was not understand what Zero was talking about now.

"Even if you know the enemy and you plan the battle perfectly, there is that one chance that something unexpected that can happen and lead you with defeat. For example, I mention that Prince Clovis had a never-before-seen Knightmare frame with no pilot, but there are few possibles that can happen. There are three that stands out to me. The first is a pilot that shows up and is able to skillful piloted the new frame. The second is pilot that uses said frame and had poor skills with the frame. The third is the failure on Prince Clovis part to even find a pilot for the new frame on time. There is always the chance of the unexpected happening," Zero explained over the radio as now everyone of the resistance was getting at what Zero was saying.

None more than so then both Kallen and Lelouch. Given all the battle that both Kallen and Lelouch had been in and seen. The times that they were so close to a proper victory only to be stop by the unexpected at times and it was usually Suzaku as he piloted the Lancelot. Thankfully Jeremiah had given Lelouch some information on the Lancelot that he had seen after Zero made his first appearance to the world by saving Suzaku. It was thanks to the information that Jeremiah had provided that Lelouch was able to find a sort of weakness in the Lancelot designs. Lelouch was sure that this trick would probably useful once, so they would have to make it count.

Zero had given Kallen her orders and she took off in the Glasgow. "Hey, are certain about this whole thing? These Sutherlands all had their IFFs removed. What if this is a trap," Tamaki asked as Ohgi was getting the Sutherland he was in started up. 'The other side has total advantage in this battle. They don't need to set any traps," Ohgi replied as he finished a systems check of the Sutherland. "All right people let's move. Get to your assigned points," Ohgi said to the others that got ready in their own Sutherlands. "P-1, can you move? It should operate basically the same to what you're used to," Zero asked over the radio as he was using the IFFs in his Sutherland to watch the enemy forces. "Can't you tell us what your real name is or at least address us by our real names," Ohgi asked as he was curious about this man named Zero.

"I can't do that. The reason for the codenames is on the off chance that Britannians intercept our radio signals. If will give them all the information on tracking all of down when we make it out alive. It is best to not use our real names in battle. As for my real name, if I was to give my true identity, then Britannian would do all that they can to captured me alive or even possible kill me. Just know that Britannian is my enemy," Zero replied as a few faces of the some of the Royal Britannia family members came to mind. "Anyway, if Q-1 is on schedule, the enemy Sutherlands, probably two of them, will reach you in 23 seconds. Shoot them through the wall," Zero said as he was watching the signal from the Glasgow. "Aaarrrg, he's out of his mind," Tamaki complained as he was not trusting in Zero and believe that this is still a trap.

"Everyone, double check your weapon," Ohgi ordered to those that were ready in the Sutherlands. "What?! Are you serious," Tamaki asked as he could not believe that Ohgi was going to follow this unknown person just like that. Meanwhile where the Glasgow was at, Kallen had just came to a clearing and was spotted by a combat VTOL in the air and it radio into the G-1 base, "Enemy spotted at point F 31." "A feint, eh? How pedestrian," Clovis said with a smile and the tone in voice that shown amusement as a map that shows the IFFs of the Britannia forces Sutherlands and the Glasgow on a screen in front of him. "Tell Laso's squad to go straight in. Have the Eugen and Valerie strike from the rear," Bartley order as he looks at the screen that was showing who was available in the area.

"3, 2, 1, fire," Ohgi said as him and a few other Sutherlands fired their guns right at the wall in front of them. The fire shot had gone through the wall and hit the enemy Sutherlands in surprised at the unexpected assault. It was not long before the two Sutherlands were destroyed. "Sir Eugen and Sir Valerie, both lost," a solider informed Bartley and Clovis as the signal was lost from the two Sutherlands. "Hmm? An ambush," Clovis asked aloud as he was surprised by this. Lelouch was looking at the same map that Clovis was and was thing, 'An ID signal can be a double-edged sword when used in the right way. With Kallen and the other resistance fighters following my orders then victory will be at hand before too long. But still there is still the Lancelot to deal with.' "P-1, P-4, and P-7, move a hundred meter to the right and fire your slash harkens towards 3 o'clock," Zero radioed to the fighters as C.C was nearby in her Sutherland guarding Lelouch as he was focus on the battlefield.

"You heard him. Do what Zero says," Ohgi said as there was a bit of happiness in his voice at being able to fight back. "Damn, what else does he want us to do," Tamaki asked aloud to no one as he was entering his Sutherland. "P-5, ready," Zero asked as he seen that Tamaki was not moving. "Yeah. Quit calling me that," Tamaki answered back as he got his Sutherland ready to fight. Soon it was chaos on the battlefield of Shinjuku. Three Sutherlands had launched their slash harkens at the Britannia Sutherlands. "Ah! They're using the same-," a soldier pilot was saying before his frame was destroyed. "The enemy's moving towards G 28," a soldier at G-1 base informed Bartley. Bartley was sweating at what was happening and gave th4e following orders, "Send Lasio's Squad, I mean Glaubey's Squad." Clovis sat up straight and asked, "This means that the terrorists have our military weaponry?"

A slash harken was shot toward the floor roof of a building and used as a sort of grappling hook for the Knightmare frame to climb up. And the slash harkens had belong to the red Glasgow once it landed on the roof. Kallen had rushed right towards a Sutherland and punched right in the head that caused it to be disable. Another signal was gone from the map as a soldier said, "Sir Glaubey has ejected! His unit's been lost." "Change our codes, they're intercepting our transmission," Bartley ordered in a panic and another soldier replied, "We already have sir, four times!" "Do it again," Bartley order as Clovis stood on his feet in disbelief and said, "This failure is unacceptable." "Forgive me," Bartley said before tv call came on the screen and shown Lloyd was the one who called. "Good afternoon," Lloyd said in a cheery tone in his voice. "What is it? We're in the middle of an operation," Bartley asked as he had no time in dealing with Lloyd nonsense.

"I'd say it's time to deploy the ASEEC's special weapon," Lloyd answered back as he clearly knew what was going on. "We've no time for this right now," Clovis said as there was a situation going on and it need his attention. "R-2, fire anchor," Zero said as a Sutherland launched a slash harken right at combat VTOL in the air and it was destroyed. "B-7, use UN ordnance," Zero ordered as another Sutherland shot a round into a tank that blown up. "N group, you'll continue your advance," Zero order as a group of Sutherlands fired upon another group of Sutherlands. "You bloody Elevens," a pilot siad in the group of Sutherlands being fired upon before being killed. "We just Lasio's Squad," a soldier at G-1 said as he was given updates on what was happening. "We'll have to bring up the Quincey's squad," Clovis order as he was taking command of the Britannia forces. "My Lord, that will break the encirclement," Bartley said as he knew that was a bad idea.

"Now then, the enemy had five options. Its's their move but know how my older brother acts. He will go with option six," Lelouch said aloud to himself as he was watching the screen. "Reinforce the breach with some of the units guarding me. All we know for certain is that the enemy forces are here," Clovis said as he gave the order to be followed. Some of the troops that were protecting the G-1 base had started to move out. "I guess that it was Prince Clovis that ordered them to break the formation," Jeremiah said to himself as he watched the troops moving out as he was heading to what was concentered a safe zone. "It is just like last time," Lelouch said as he saw the enemy coming. "Q-1, do you have an area map," Zero asked over the radio. "I do have a map of the old town, but it has no current landmarks," Kallen answered back as she was moving all over the battlefield. "It'll do. Here is what I want done," Zero radio back as he gave them what the orders to do.

"All right, send in Burts and the others too," Clovis said to Bartley who was standing by the prince. "Proceed with mission number three now," Zero radioed into the resistance fighters as he saw more enemy forces that were backing up the first force that he saw coming. "Concentrate our force there. Surround them," Clovis order as it he was having a bit of tunnel vison on wanting to beat these terrorists. Is everything prepared," Zero asked over the radio as he knew that the enemy were going to be shocked with what happens next. "The enemy's main force is that center dot. Finished every one of them," Clovis order as he was looking at a map where the Glasgow signal was at. Lelouch looked on with a smirk as the Britannia forces shown up at the spot only to find that there were no signs of anyone. "What?! Where's the enemy," Clovis asked as the enemy signal disappeared from the map screen.

The Glasgow and Sutherlands were traveling in one the tunnels underneath Shinjuku. "With this brother it's check," Lelouch said as Kallen fired a slash harken in the tunnel ceiling that caused a cave in. With the cave in happening, it caused the area where the Britannia forces were at to fall in a hole as both Sutherlands and tanks were being destroyed. At the G-1 base, Clovis was seeing all the signal of the troops that he sent out were disappearing quickly. "It worked just like last time. Now to commence with the next part of the plan. Time to deal with eh Lancelot," Lelouch said to himself as both his and C.C. Sutherlands began to move out. 'Who? Who in the hell am I up against? Is this person better than Tohdoh,' Clovis thought in shock as he could not believe that he was losing.

"Lloyd," Clovis said as Lloyd was still on the tv screen. "Yes, Your Highness," Lloyd answered with that same grin on his face. "Can it win, will your toy beat them," Clovis asked as he had to swallow his pride knowing that he did not want to do this. "My Lord, please be so kind as to call it Lancelot," Lloyd said in seriousness as his wanted his project Knightmare frame to be called by its proper name. As outside the G-1, there were a few people that were running around a trailer the frame that is known as Lancelot that was being stored and carried for the time. It was not long until everyone was hearing a computer voice message.

"{Z-01 Lancelot now activating. Lancelot activating. Releasing hatch. Z-01 Lancelot standby for activation. Pallet extension initiating}" was being said by a female computer voice as preparation were being made to get the Lancelot ready for its first battle. Suzaku was inside one of the vehicles as he was putting on a combat piloting suit. "Did you read the manual," Cecile asked threw an earpiece that Suzaku was wearing as he was getting suited up. "Pretty much," Suzaku answered as he was zipping up the front zipper by his chest. "Well done. You scored at the top of the class in the simulator," Cecile replied as Suzaku was check over the pilot suit. "Hey, look. About what you told me earlier," Suzaku asked as he started to walk towards the exit.

"Huh? Ah, it could be. But the possibility is nearly zero," Cecile replied as she remembers what she was talking to Suzaku about as she had offer him some cookies that she made. Suzaku not to be impolite not to accept and took one of the cookies as Cecile gave him the manual. Suzaku did not have the chance to eat the cookie and had stuffed it in his pilot suit pocket. "But that means there's still a chance, right," Suzaku asked as he stepped through the doors and once he was outside, he was seeing what looks to be a Knightmare frame covered in a sheet with locking arm mechanism holding the fame in place. "Yes, I'm afraid that's true. Even so, you're not to do anything reckless," Cecile answered back as a sort of piston moved back then forth which caused air to come out of the locking arms.

"The new system in not outfitted with an ejection mechanism," Cecile added as the releasing air was soon done. "Ok, I understand, Miss Cecile," Suzaku replied back as he saw the locking arms being removed from the frame. With the locking arms gone, there was a strong gust of wind that came at the right moment. The wind had blown the sheet up and revealed its looks to Suzaku. "That's it," Suzaku asked as he stared at the Knightmare frame that looked like a knight with colors of gold and white as its armor. "Yes. the advanced weapon developed by us in the Advanced Special Envoy Engineering Corps (ASEEC), Lancelot, the world's first seventh generation Knightmare Frame," Cecile answered as Suzaku was looking over the Lancelot frame as if he needed to study over it for some unknown reason.

"Well, it you're ready, Suzaku, shall we proceed with the initial startup," Lloyd asked in a control room that was set up behind the Lancelot that he was at with Cecile on a nearby computer. "Initial startup. Now perceiving from phase twenty," Cecile said as Lloyd was near her with a grin of a smile on his face. "Equipping energy filler," Cecile said as a container of some kind was being loaded into the Lancelot side. "Confirm pre-start. Energy filler now at full output. 30 Seconds to reach critical voltage," an engineer said as he monitoring the energy levels for the Lancelot. "Core luminance, shifting phase," another engineer said as the Lancelot energy filter was starting up. "Initiating startup," Cecile said as a glass shield was being raised for the floor that was between the backside of the Lancelot and those on the computers behind the Lancelot. "{Confirming entry of devicer into Z-01}," replied a female computer voice as Suzaku sat in the seat for the Lancelot and was moved into place.

"{Individual ID registration confirmed}," said the female computer voice as the inside of the Lancelot cockpit began to light up for Suzaku to see. "{Conform man-machine interface}," the female computer voice said as Suzaku place the Lancelot activation key in the slot. "{Engage. Yggdrasil Resonance confirmed}," the female computer voice said as out of the cockpit, the Lancelot's head was lighting up by the neck area. "{Rejection Response, weak. Devicer's Stress Response, weak. All reading, normal}," the female computer voice finished saying as Suzaku had gripped the controls in front of him in the cockpit. "So far, it's going per the data," Lloyd said as he wanted to see how the Lancelot was going to perform. "Status, all green. Status of back up tactical back, authorized. Secondary confirmation, given," said the voice of a male as the medical vehicles that were in front of the Lancelot were being moved to clear a way.

Suzaku type in some code on a keypad at the Lancelot was finishing up its startup process. The Lancelot's hands rotated around before the Lancelot moved into position. The Lancelot's legs speared far to the sides and the right arm moved down with the right hand on the ground. The Lancelot looks like it is taking a launch type position. Both Lloyd and Cecile were both looking on as this was happening. The Lancelot land spinner moved into place as some cable lines were being disconnected from the Lancelot. "Lancelot, activate ME-boost," Suzaku said as this signal to all that he was ready. The wheels on the land spinner were in motion in a burnout formation as Cecile radioed out, "Lancelot, launch!" With those words being said, Suzaku had the Lancelot shooting out of the gates at very high speed. "HAHAHAHA! Running full throttle right out of the gate. " Lloyd said as both him and Cecile were on the ground that was caused by the force from the Lancelot.

The Lancelot was charging at full speed "Cooler than the manual. With this...," Suzaku was saying at first with being impressed but was stop as the pain from side where the bandages were at were hurting him giving that he was going at high speeds with the Lancelot. "Huh? What is that," Tamaki asked as Zero had him position to be on look out. Tamaki was seeing a strange frame that was on his monitor. "It doesn't look like a Sutherland," Tamaki said as he was looking at the new frame that had white and gold armor. IT was then that Tamaki remember what Zero said before a frame with white and gold armor. "This is P-5. I had spotted a new frame that had white and gold color armor," Tamaki said as he wanted to refused using the codename, but Ohgi told him to go with it. 'Right on time," Lelouch thought and then he radios out to the resistance fighters, "Alright everyone. I want all of you to head towards this location and take the spots that i will give to. I will be honest that there is only a slight chance to be able to beat this new frame with what we have. If it looks like it is too much then eject from you frames and get yourselves to safety."

Everyone was taken back by the last thing that Zero said. "Are you sure about that," Ohgi asked about that decision. "Yes. Given that this new frame is a seventh gen and we only have one fourth gen and a bunch of fifth gen. We are outmatched and that is not including what new weapons that the frame has. Before we retract, we need to see what this frame is able to do and plan for it at a later time. I know that none of you want to hear these types of words from me, but sometimes it is best to take what you can at the moment. This fight with Britannian will not be settled in a single battle. There will be more before we can claim victory," Zero answered back as everyone listening had to agree with what he said. 'You sure do have a way with words don't you," C.C. thought as she was listening in.

Suzaku was piloting the Lancelot to where the signal of the Glasgow was at. Soon he saw the red Glasgow with a few Sutherlands by it. "Please surrender at once," Suzaku asked over the Lancelot speaker. "There is no chance of that you Britannia dog," one of the pilots of the Sutherland said before the Sutherland opened fired on the Lancelot. The Lancelot had quickly deployed that Blaze Luminous shield to block the bullets. "It seems like this frame is able to reflects bullets," a resistance pilot said as they were seeing this. Unknown to Suzaku there was a few other Sutherlands that were coming up behind. This was part of the plan that Zero had come up with. The first group that make contract with the Lancelot would shoot at it to keep it attention on them. Then another group would be ready to flank the Lancelot from Behind, but only at the right moment. It was then that the Glasgow and brought out a new weapon that was picked before the Lancelot shown up.

The Glasgow had pulled out a cylinder type item and thrown it in the air right in front of the Lancelot. "That a Chaos Mine grenade, Suzaku," Cecile said over the radio to the Lancelot as both her and Lloyd were watching from the Lancelot cameras. The Chaos Mine grenade is a cylindrical, air burst grenade-type Knightmare weapon that fires large volumes of deadly fragmentation shrapnel over a wide target area. These are usually carried on a few Sutherlands frames. Kallen had grabbed one from a down Britannia Sutherland frame. The Resistance Sutherlands stopped their firing as the Chaos Mine was primed. When Suzaku heard what Cecile said, he activated both of the Lancelot's Blaze Luminous shields in both arms. The Chaos Mine started to shoot out the shrapnel from within at the Lancelot. The Blaze Luminous were doing a good job at protecting the Lancelot, but it was using a lot on energy to keep it up. Not only that a few of the shrapnel were hitting the Lancelot's foot that was not being covered by the shield.

It was then the other Resistance Sutherlands came out and began to fire at the backside of the Lancelot as they were out of the target range of the Chaos Mine. Since Suzaku was busy with the Chaos Mine in the front of him, he was unprepared for the attack from behind. The shots that were coming from were causing a good bit of damage, but it was not enough to really damage or destroy the Lancelot given that the armor on the Lancelot was on another level then other frame armor. This was the weakness that Lelouch was able to learn from what Jeremiah told him. The weakness with the Lancelot Blaze Luminous shield is an attack from behind given that shields were only used in front attack and not from behind. "What are those terrorists doing to my Lancelot," Lloyd asked as the information on what was happening on the Lancelot was shown on the screen. "It seems like they were able to find a way around the Blaze Luminous shield by attacking from behind," Cecile answered as she had to take a guess on what was happening.

It was not long before that Chaos Mine was empty, and it was then that Suzaku went on the attack with the Lancelot. The Lancelot's land spinner was not hit during that attack from behind, so the speed of the Lancelot was unaffected. The Lancelot was heading right for the Sutherlands that were firing at him from behind. "All unit disengaged and escape. It seems like we are not able to take that thing with what we have," Zero said over the radio as he now knew that the only things that could take on the Lancelot was more advance Knightmare frame like Rakshata could make, skilled pilots, and possible better weaponry. Some of the Sutherlands that were still firing on the Lancelot were backing away, but the Lancelot was dodging with its speed. The Lancelot pointed his right arm at one of the Sutherlands and a slash harken was fired from above the right hand. The slash harkens had struck the head of the Sutherland and the pilot ejected from the frame.

Then the Lancelot jumped into the air as another Sutherland was firing shots, but the Lancelot still avoided the bullets. The Lancelot did a front spin and the land spinner on the right leg slammed right into the Sutherland's head. "Yes, I can do this. With Lancelot I can stop all this," Suzaku said to himself as went to attack another Sutherland. Back at the G-1 base, Clovis was watching on how the Lancelot was taking down one Sutherland after another, and said to himself aloud, "For heaven's sake. Now I'll own my older brother a debt I don't need to incur. It's for the best though." "These reading are even higher than predicted," Cecile said back at the trailer for the Lancelot as the data from the fight was coming in. "Despite that assault from earlier, Suzaku is taking his job as a pilot very seriously," Llyod said that as hated that the Lancelot was damaged, he could not overlook that amazing battle data he was getting.

The Lancelot kept dodging bullet and was even using the environment of the building to his advantage. Like going up the side of one building in an alleyway then jumping to another building side as the Lancelot headed right for another Sutherland. Lucky for the resistance fighter pilots they were able to eject from the frames in time. Suzaku was taking down each Sutherland with either its hands, kicks, or even the slash harkens at times. 'If I can stop all the Knightmares, then this battle is over. No matter what it takes, I 've gotta save Lelouch,' Suzaku thought as he was using his left hand to hold his right side. It seems like all the movement that Suzaku was doing with the Lancelot was taking a toll on his injury. It was then that the Lancelot's scanner had picked up three signals from some frames.

Kallen had met up with the frames that both C.C. and Lelouch was using. The three were heading toward the next part of the part but then the Lancelot jumped out of nowhere ion the front of them. "Are you the one that is command," Suzaku asked, but he forgot to turn the speaker on. Suzaku had the Lancelot rush at the three as he then jumped into the air and preformed a spinning barrel roll that was follow by a wide left leg kick heading right towards the Sutherland that Lelouch was in. Lelouch was able to block in time, but the force that was behind the Lelouch's kick was causing serious problems on the joints. Lelouch was pushing the land spinners to their full power to go forward, but it was being pushed back. The force behind the Lancelot was weaking and Lelouch was able to push him back. The Lancelot landed back to the ground and was prepared to rush at the Sutherland again, but was stop because of the interferences of the Glasgow.

"Get him out of here, witch," Kallen said over the speaker as had the Glasgow engage with the Lancelot. C.C. had used her Sutherland to help get Lelouch's Sutherland out of the way. The Lancelot began to fight with the Glasgow in hand-to-hand combat. Now given that one frame is a fourth generation that was fighting a seventh generation, it would usually a no brainer that a seventh generation would have the victory. There was one difference with this fight and that was the pilot skills. This is the first time that Suzaku had even been in a right Knightmare frame especially given that he was piloting the newest frame. As for Kallen she was using what is considered to be weak frame, but her piloting skills are about two years' worth of battling and some including fighting the Lancelot. The Glasgow had the dodge to the side to avoid a punching coming from the Lancelot.

With that dodge the Glasgow spun around the side of the Lancelot and was now behind the Lancelot. The Glasgow sent a kick right underneath the cockpit and the force of the kick sent Suzaku shaking. It was only thanks to wearing seatbelt that kept him in place. Lancelot tried to swing its arm back to hit Glasgow on the off chance, but the Glasgow dropped to the ground and follow that up with a sudden leg sweep that caused the Lancelot to fall to the ground. Suzaku was able to get the Lancelot back on its feet and began to look for the Glasgow. What Suzaku saw next took him for surprised. The Glasgow jumped into the air with a barrel roll spin that was followed by a wide left leg kick that connect with the Lancelot's head. The Lancelot's hand had some damage on the right side from the kick, but the Glasgow's left leg was damage from the Lancelot's armor around the head. 'Crap, it seems like I won't be able to fight much longer, but I hope that I was able to buy C.C. and Lelouch enough time of a head start,' Kallen thought as she began to avoid the punches and kicks that was coming from the Lancelot.

Kallen was able to dodge with such grace that if anyone was around to see this, they would be taken back by Kallen's piloting skills. It was then that an alarm for the Glasgow went off and she saw that power level for the Glasgow was low. Kallen was left with no choice, but to eject the cockpit from the Glasgow. Suzaku saw the Glasgow was standing still and went in for an attack, but saw the cockpit being ejected right before he destroyed the Glasgow's head. Kalle's cockpit was able to safely able to get out of the area. Once the cockpit landed on the ground, Kallen had pulled out the black box that held all the data from her battle today. Kallen did this to make sure that the Britannian did not get their hands on her battle data and just in case, Kallen had set up a bomb in the cockpit with a timer that she activated as she ran to a safe spot from the blast zone.

Kallen was able to meet up with the others resistance fighters and all of them headed off to get to safely and not be caught by the Britannian army. As for Suzaku, with Glasgow out of the way, he started to head towards the direction that the two Sutherlands went. It took a few minutes for the Lancelot caught up with the two. Both C.C. and Lelouch tried to fight back with shooting their guns, but the Lancelot was able to dodge the shoots. 'I forgot that the only reason that I got away the first time is because of Suzaku stopped to save a mother and her child from falling debris. How are we going to get out of this,' Lelouch thought as he was trying to find a way out of this. Then something surprising happened that no one saw coming. There was a Britannia Sutherland that was damage came out of nowhere and attack the Lancelot. This gave both Lelouch and C.C. the time to eject their cockpits from the frames.

The damaged frame had wrapped its arms around the Lancelot and the cockpit was ejected. Just as the Lancelot was about to break out of the hold and go after the two cockpits, but then he heard something strange. It seems like the unknown pilot of the damage Sutherland had set off a self-destruct sequence before ejecting. When Suzaku realized this, he quick broke the arms and rushed towards the side right as the frame blew up. "That was a close one," Suzaku said as he took a breather and grit his teeth in pain from his injury. Suzaku was about to leave after the two cockpits, but the Lancelot stopped moving and shut down. When Suzaku used the Blaze Luminous against the Chaos Mine, it had taken a serious toll on the Lancelot's energy levels. As Suzaku was fight, he was not paying any attention to the energy levels, and this would come back to bite him.

"What had happened with my Lancelot," Lloyd asked as the equipment that was monitoring the Lancelot suddenly stopped. "The Lancelot's energy level are in the low and was forced into a standby mode to allow the pilot to leave the cockpit," Cecile answered as she looked over some information that she gets. "I guess that it can't be help. We will have to get the Lancelot once the coast is clear," Lloyd said in disappointment at not getting any more data from the Lancelot. Outside the G-1 base, there was two soldiers that were head for a soldier that was guard. "Stop there, show your ID," the solder said with his gun on the two. One of the soldiers lifted his helmet visor as his left eye changes before the guard eyes. "You will let the two of us threw and informed Prince Clovis that I have important information that is only for him and needs to be told in private," the soldier said, and the guard began to do what he was told

It would be few minutes later when a message is broadcast went out. "Attention all forces. Cease fire on all action. I Clovis, third prince of Britannia and royal viceroy of Area Eleven, here by command you, all forces are ordered to stop at once. You also ordered to all destruction of any buildings or property. All casualties, whether Britannian or Eleven, shall be treated equally and without prejudice. In the name of Clovis La Britannia, you are her by ordered to cease at once," Clovis said over the Britannian radio network. Inside the G-1 control room, there was only three people. Clovis had order everyone to leave the room and before Clovis could asked what the information that he had to hear there was a gun to head. Clovis was forced to give that message to all the troops.

"Are you satisfied," Clovis asked as he looked at the two. "Well done," said the soldier as it was the second solider that had the gun pointed at Clovis. "And what shall we do now? Sing a few lively ballads, or perhaps a nice game of chess," Clovis asked in a joking way. "I would challenge you to a game of chess, but I already know that your skill is plain at base," the soldier replied as he moved his hand up to his helmet. "What," Clovis asked with a confusing look on his face but before he could aske anymore, he saw the soldier move his vision and saw his eye change. "You will give me the code to access to the Britannian Government building computers. Also give me all the information on any secret files that are in the computer systems and if there is anything that you have information that you have that is not on the computer," the solider ordered and Clovis began to do what he was ordered to do. The soldier had record everything that Clovis said.

"That will do," the soldier said once he had all the information that Clovis had known. Then his eye changed back and with Clovis not knowing what happened. "Who are you," Clovis asked as he was trying to figure out who this man was. "I am just a man that knows how corrupt Britannian is on the inside, but as for my identity. That is the least of your worries," the soldier answered as he made a hand motion to the second solder. The second soldier remover their helmet and Clovis was shocked by who he saw. The second soldier was a female and not just any female, but a female that had long green hair and was inside the capsule that was taken earlier today. "It is time for me to get my payback on everything you did to me for months," C.C. said with the gun that she took from one of the royal guards earlier.

Before Clovis could even try to beg for his life and even try to make a deal of the sort. C.C. shot the gun and sent a bullet right into his head. Clovis was dead in the matter of seconds. "You are sure that you did not want to do it yourself," C.C. asked the male soldier as he removed his helmet to reveal that he was Lelouch. "I am sure. You had the most reason to shot him get what he did to you," Lelouch replied as he walked by the computer to make sure that all video evidence were erase and there was no chance of recovery. "What is the plan now, Lelouch," C.C. asked as he began to holster her gun. "To take down the Emperor and those that side with him. And then bring true justice and peace to this war-torn world," Lelouch answered as the two headed for the door. Just as the door open, Lelouch looked down on the ground and saw a folded paper crane that was laying there. Lelouch show a mild shocked as he seen this crane before. He just hopes that he will not be expose before it's too late.

Later that night a top of the Tokyo Tower

Kitsune was stop of the Tokyo Tower again just like the night before. "Well done, Lelouch and company. From here on out you all will show Britannian that the true change that the Britannia royal family fears is coming," Kitsune said as he held up his can drink that had the same style from the night before. "How mush of change to think will happen this time around," said a female voice that came from behind him. Kitsune turned to looked and saw a girl wearing all white with a hood covering her head except for her mouth. "That is hard to answer. The changes that will happen can either be big or small. I know that things will definitely be challenge for them to face. Since thing are going to be different, no doubt that the Butterfly Effect will take place. How are things on your end, Caretaker," Kitsune replied.

"I am glad that I returned to C's world before you travel back. I could have been caught it that timeline reset. I made sure that Charles knows that Geass was given at the right moment, but not who has it," the Caretaker answered. "I hate to leave with things begin to start, but I do have things to take care of," Kitsune said as he finished his drink. He took the now empty can toss it over the edge. The can would fall directly in the trash car if anyone was to see if happen. The Caretaker took her leave and disappeared. Kitsune grabbed the handle of his katana. The stones on his gauntlet started to glow with colors of blue and purple. The energy from the stones were being channeled into the blade. Kitsune swings his blade and forms a sort of tear in the space in front of him. Kitsune walks into the tear, and it closes right behind him. There was no evidence of anyone begin there if someone was to look.

To Be Continued

Author Notes: That is another chapter done. I hope all of you enjoy it. I know that some of you were hoping for a few more deaths Like Suzaku or even Ohgi to happen, but I am not sure on their fates yet. I will admit that this chapter took some time as I had to watch two episodes with bit of the third. Even finding a site that had transcript on the episode to help with what to say at the moment.

Did anyone catch any of the two easter eggs in this chapter. One is going to be obvious, and the other is if you really paid attention.

Please leave a comment if you like.

Yall be safe.

Code Geass: Back to The Past for a New Future

Chapter 11: Becoming Known to the World

It was just close to midnight when both Lelouch and C.C. had made it back to Ashford Academy. Once Lelouch and C.C exited the G-1 base, the two had made contact with Jeremiah and with his help they had managed to sneak away without being noticed. Lelouch had received a test message from Kallen that was letting him know that she was able to get home with no problem and that had put a smile on his face. The two had entered the Ashford's Student Council building by using the service tunnel that ran under the Ashford Academy. The two were greeted by Sayoko. "Good evening, Master Lelouch and Miss C.C.," Sayoko said in her maid voice as she offered the two some tea. "Evening Sayoko. You got my message from Shirley," Lelouch asked as he took one of the cups of tea. "Yes, I did. Once I got the message, I took care of Lady Nunnally for the afternoon. She was most sad that she was unable to see you today," Sayoko answered as C.C. took the other cup of tea.

"I know and I will have to make it up to her later," Lelouch said after taking a drink of his tea. "I am guessing that the mission was successful I take it," Sayoko asked as she looked at the two. "It is a bit more or less on how things with, but the overall result was a success for us in the end," Lelouch answered back as he finished his tea, but his thought was going back to the paper crane that he found and was in his pocket right now. "Thats good to hear. I am guessing that the two of you will be turning in for the night," Sayoko asked given what the time is right now. "It you would not mind can you show C.C. to her room," Lelouch replied as he started to walk towards his room "What is the matter. Not going to invite a young lady to your room," C.C. asked with a like tease in her voice. Lelouch stopped and turned to face C.C.

"I have no interest with sleeping on the floor. I would rather sleep in my only bed," Lelouch replied as he remembers when C.C. shown up here after saving Suzaku as Zero. She had taken his bed, and he pretty much had to sleep on the floor. "I will show Miss C.C. to her room that was prepared for her," Sayoko said with a small smile on her face. During the four months, Lelouch had a room that no one was using for a time and had fixed up as a bedroom for C.C. to use for the time being. It was not to long before Lelouch headed off to his room and left C.C. with Sayoko who began to show the room that C.C. would be using. Sayoko was in front of C.C. as the two walked down the hall.

"I have to ask Miss C.C. during the training month on Miyake Island. Did you and Kitsune happened to get close by some chance," Sayoko asked as she gave a sideway glance to C.C. "What made you asked that," C.C. replied as she was not sure why Sayoko would ask that in the first place. "The reason is that when some of us was going through some of the crates that was marked for us. Kitsune had place a key in my crate with a note that said, 'I believe that C.C. would love to have this' and I open the crate that was for you. I opened the crate and only took out one item and place it in your room," Sayoko answered as she knew that C.C. would be glad to have what Kitsune gave her. Soon the two reached the room and Sayoko opened the door for the two to entered.

To C.C. the room looked to be normal except for one thing that was all too familiar to her. It was her Cheese-Kun plushie that she was able to get after saving all the points from when she was ordering pizza from Pizza Hut when she was hiding out in the Ashford Student Council building before the Black Rebellion. She was shocked to see her plushie again since it was left in her room on the Ikaruga. "I will have to thank Kitsune for getting my plushie," C.C. said with a small smile on her face. "I will leave you for the night and will see you in the morning," Sayoko said as she left the room and closed the door behind her. C.C. walked towards the bed and grabbed the plushie and hugged it real tight with a smile on her face. After a while C.C. soon retired to her bed to get some sleep for the night.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

In the morning of the next day

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Lelouch had woken up early and started to make breakfast for him, Sayoko, Nunnally, and C.C. for the morning. Lelouch would have to ask Sayoko if she would be able to bring C.C. her food. It would be a good idea to keep Nunnally from C.C. given that she was able to see. Lelouch wanted to make sure that Nunnally would be as safe as possible if she does not meet C.C. until the time could be right. As Lelouch was make breakfast, his thoughts soon turned to the paper crane that he found. Lelouch knew the person that the paper crane belongs to. The reason is that Lelouch seen that same paper crane earlier yesterday.

~Flashback to yesterday at Ashford Academy~

Lelouch was walking across the academy ground as he was heading to where Rivalz was at with his motorbike. As he was walking, he had come another a female student that was walking just in front of him. The female student had long black hair that went pass her waist and stop just above her knees from behind. It took Lelouch a few minutes to think on who this person was and soon he remembers that this girl was Maya Garfield. There was not known about Maya as she kept her life private. As Maya was walking, Lelouch had seen something that fell from her pocket that landed on the ground.

Lelouch rush to get it off the ground and seen that it was folded paper crane. "Hey, Miss Maya. You drop this," Lelouch said as he called out to Maya while rushing to her. Maya heard Lelouch voice that had her stop and turned to face him. Once Lelouch seen that Maya had turned to face him, he could not help but looked over her appearance from the front. Maya was wearing a black hair band with white on the side of it. The one thing that caught Lelouch attention was that Maya had blue color eyes that almost match Kallen's eyes. "You drop this," Lelouch said as he handed the paper crane back to Maya. "Thank you," Maya replied as she got her paper crane back and placed back it her pocket. She then proceeds to be on her way from Lelouch as he headed to where Rivalz was at.

~Flashback End~

Lelouch would have to let Kallen know that there is a possibility that Maya was at the G-1 base and overheard both him and C.C. talking. As Lelouch was finishing breakfast, he had remembered during the month on Miyake Island that Kitsune had informed him and the others on the chances that when Kitsune would send them back to the past that there would chance that unforeseen changes that could happened. It made sense that what Kitsune said about the unforeseen changes happened at the G-1 base that Lelouch did not see the paper crane on the floor before. Lelouch would have to set up a meeting with Maya and may have both Kallen and Sayoko nearby just in case it they need to restrain her.

Once that was taken care of, Lelouch had to get with Kallen on getting in contract with her group just like last time to make his official introduction as Zero. Lelouch figure that he would do the same thing that he with the train this time around. All he had to do was wait until tomorrow afternoon for the announcement of Prince Clovis's death with Suzaku as the killer, the meeting the day before Suzaku was to be bought before his trial, and then the night that Zero makes his appearance. The only thing that Lelouch had to think about what to do with Suzaku after saving him. Lelouch figured that killing Suzaku would make things easier, but there could be negative impact in the future. There is also that he had promised Kallen for the chance to beat Suzaku and his Lancelot when she gets her Guren. He was not one to deny his crimson queen her payback.

If Lelouch was being honest with himself, a part of him had a hard time with making the decision on killing Suzaku. Lelouch still saw Suzaku as his friend, but Lelouch know the type of person that Suzaku becomes. Lelouch had asked Suzaku two different times for help and all he got was backstabbing and betrayal. Lelouch had decided to talk a bit with Kallen on what to do with Suzaku along with Ohgi and the other Black Knight members that sided with Schneizel. Lelouch would have to take things one step at a time. Right now, Lelouch had to finished breakfast and get ready for a meeting with the Student Council before going to classes for the day

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Later in the morning in the meeting room of the Student Council

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

In one of the rooms at the Student Council building, there were five people in the room with lots of paperwork on the table. These five people are the members of the Ashford Student Council, and these members are Shirley Fenette, Nina Einstein, Rivalz Cardemonde, Milly Ashford, and Lelouch Lamperouge. It had slip Lelouch's mind that he forgot all about the academy's club budget paperwork that had to be done today. There was a single thought that came to everyone when it came to paperwork of any kind and that is it is absolute boring. This was Lelouch was thinking about when his eyes started to close and started to nap off. That was put to a halt by one person that had popped Lelouch on the top of his head with a paper fan that woke him up.

The person with the paper fan was none other than Milly. "Wake up Lelouch! I know you were sleeping. Your hands stopped moving," Milly exclaim aloud as she bopped Lelouch a few more times. "Well, you don't have to beat me up over it, do you," Lelouch replied as Milly stooped bopping him in the head with the paper fan. "Serves you right for ditching me like that," Rivalz said as he looked up from the paperwork in his hands. Rivalz was upset with Lelouch yesterday, given that Rivalz had to push his bike all the way back to the academy.

"I want to talk to you about the call you made to me yesterday," Shirley added as she gave Lelouch a sideways look. Lelouch had tried to come up with an answer, but he was saved by Milly as she said, "That's enough, you guys. Let's not get sidetracked here. If we don't come up with a fix for teh club activities budget, there won't be money left for anything at all." At a desk that was in the corner of the room sat Nina. Nina looked up from the paperwork before her and said, "And if it comes to that point..." "The Equestrian Club will be pissed. We don't want 'em comin' in here on horseback again," Rivalz finished what Nina was saying and everyone in the room had flashback to that incident. It took quite some time to get everyone back in order and also getting the scent of a barn of horses that was in the Student Council building.

"Rivalz, can't you be a bit more of a serious student council member," Milly scolded Rivalz with his carefree attitude. Unknown to Milly that behind her back was the window to the room that they were in, there was a member of the Equestrian Club on horse passing by said window. The rider stopped for a few minutes to looking through the window and before continuing on his way on the horse. "You know, it would have been nice of you if you would have reminded us about this mess a day ago," Shirley said as she was a little annoy at the President. "I would say a day later. Then we would have given up," Rivalz said as it was clear that he did not like doing all this paperwork. "Good idea. We can still do that," Lelouch replied as he knows that they will be able to finish the paperwork on time anyway.

"GUTS," Milly yelled with a sound of anger in her voice that caught everyone attention. "Are you trying that guts spell again," Rivalz asked as this was nothing new from Milly. Milly tone turned from anger to cheerful and answered back, "Yeah, I want you people to start putting your all into this." "I really don't think that your magic's gonna do a whole lot," Lelouch said as he looked at Milly. "Actually, it's got me going, Madam President," Shirley said as if she had a sudden burst of energy. "Supple and willing, that's what I like," Milly replied as she looks at Shirley. "I train hard in the Gymnastics Club," Shirley exclaimed as she placed her left hand on her right elbow as she flexed her right arm as if to show some muscle.

The thing about what Shirley was doing was kind of pointless given that the Ashford Academy girl uniform had long sleeves and Shirley's body was considered to be a swimmer's body since all that Shirley did in the Gymnastics Club was swimming. "That's not what I was getting at. You're a ten," Milly said is a softer tone in her voice as she crossed her arms in front of her and was giving Shirley a look. "Huh," Shirley replied in confusing. 'It is times like this it is hard to tell if Milly is into boys or girls. The only crazier thing would be if Milly was for both,' Lelouch thought as Milly was a mystery and wondered if the headache was worth it to figure Milly out.

"From what I've seen in the girls' bathroom anyway, you've been filling out in all the right places, huh," Milly answered as her eyes were looking at a certain place on Shirley's upper body and Shirley looked down to where Milly was looking at when she looked at Milly's eyes. Rivalz let out a small laugh as he knew what Milly was referring to and Shirley did to as she covered her chest. "What, what are you talking about, you perv," Shirley exclaimed in embarrassment. "It's too bad that Kallen is not here," Milly said as she was so going to tease Kallen as well. During the four months, Kallen had joined the Student Council. This had given Kallen Kouzuki the perfect cover as Kallen Stadtfeld while at Ashford Academy.

Lucky Lelouch had placed a lock and key on where the champagne was kept. Kallen had all but threated Lelouch to make sure that she would not be having a champagne shower. Kallen had kept up her appearance as the unwell Kallen Stadtfeld. Kallen had also taken with having some tea and sweets with Nunnally when she was not busy with the resistance fighters. Nunnally had a joyful smile on her face when she was with Kallen. It seems like Kallen had started to see Nunnally as a little sister. As for Nunnally, she was having the same feeling that she had when she was with both Cornelia and Euphemia. Given all that Kallen knows about Nunnally before the time travel back, it was impossible for Kallen to see Nunnally as an enemy. The only question is how in the world is Nunnally is related to the Emperor Charles in anyway because there is no way that a sweet and cheerful girl came from that.

"It can't be help with Kallen's health at times and that she does not stay in the Academy dorms. It would be wrong to force her to push herself to be here early," Lelouch said as he knew that Kallen would be here today and would meet up. "It seems like that Kallen's health is getting a bit better later," Rivalz added his thoughts. "She told me that doctor that she had been seeing is giving her a better treatment then what she was doing before. She did make a joke that with some of the time that she spent with Nunnally in the afternoon drinking tea and talking might be source of her feeling better," Lelouch replied with a smile. Shirley was a little jealous that Kallen was getting close to Nunnally and in turn being close to Lelouch as well. Shirley soon pushed those feeling away as there was paperwork to get done before classes begin for the day.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Heading to the classroom at Ashford Academy

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Lelouch, Rivalz, Nina, and Shirley were all heading towards the same morning class that they had. "Geez, our President just a dirty old man on the inside. Sullying the meeting with her filthy mind," Shirley said as all four of them were walking. "Yeah well, that's Millie for you," Nina replied as this was nothing new that involved Milly. "Look on the bright side. We got the budget balanced, didn't we," Rivalz said as that was a good thing to agree on. Shirley, Nina and Rivalz were the first ones to enter the classroom as they were ahead of Lelouch. The three took noticed that some of the other students were gather around a few laptops. The was a breaking new article that said that poison gas was released in Shinjuku yesterday.

All the students were talking about it and was a bit scared given that Shinjuku was thirty minutes away from Ashford Academy. The three were listening to some of the stuff that was being said. 'This is just like last time. Covering up Clovis's death by saying terrorist had used poison gas and not revealing that the Britannia army got their butt handed to them. All this is giving those that are high up in commanded the time that need to figure out what to do. And that will be reveal tomorrow afternoon,' Lelouch thought when he entered the classroom and headed for his seat.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Outside of a military base

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

There was a car that was leaving out of the gates that went to one of the military bases that was set up. In the backseat of the car that was leaving were two people. One was a woman that had light brown skin color, yellow eyes, and light steel blue hair color that was in a ponytail on the top of her head on her left and some of hair hanging down by her right eye. This woman was none of the Villetta Nu. The other person that was sitting on her left was a man with teal hair color. This was Jeremiah Gottwald. "That ex-civil servant is such a fool," Jeremiah said as the car just left the base.

"Are you referring to Bartley," Villetta asked as she looked at Jeremiah. "The killer had breached our heaviest security. This perfunctory inspection is a farce," Jeremaih replied as he had to make sure that Villetta would not be suspicious of him. "Margrave Jeremiah, now that Prince Clovis is out of the way, we pure bloods can..," Villetta started to only to be stopped by Jeremiah's one finger. "I know, but we have to be careful. One wrong move and we can have the not only the eyes of the royal family on us, but also the Emperor as well. The most important thing that we can do at the moment is to make sure that is under control," Jeremiah replied back. 'I just have to make sure that I can stay in the proper position to be able to help my Lord with his plans,' Jeremiah thought.

Back at Ashford Academy

In the classroom there was a few more minutes left before class was to begin for the morning. That was then another student came in. The student was a girl who was wearing the female Ashford Academy uniform. The female student had short red hair that was showing to be growing downward like and blue eyes. This was none other than Kallen Stadtfeld not only an Ashford Academy, but also a member of the Ashford Student Council. This Kallen was the familiar face that everyone at the academy know but only known to a few that knew the truth of who Kallen Stadtfeld really was.

The moment that Kallen had entered, she was approached by three other female students as Kallen was heading towards her seat. Kallen took her time in talking with each of the girls. Watching this was Lelouch from a sideway look from his seat. Lelouch would have to give Kallen a signal to meet up when they have a free movement. During the four months, Kallen and Lelouch worked on subtle hand motions or even simple word phases to use on the academy grounds. The two had also included Milly in knowing the signals just in case of emergency. Lelouch got up from his seat and walked over to where Kallen was at.

Kallen had seen Lelouch coming over to her and she could hear the girls talking in whisper. They were whispering about Lelouch. Lelouch was always the topic of gossip with the girls at Ashford Academy. it was the usual talks about how cool, how handsome, how quiet, how smart, or other things about Lelouch that the girls have found attractive about him while at the academy. But the most talk about subject that involved Lelouch was about the shirtless pictures of Lelouch. The female students could not but look at Lelouch as they imagine him without his academy uniform shirt. There were talks about the lower half of Lelouch, but those talks were kept on the down low.

'You girls can look and talk all you want about Lelouch, but in the end none of you girls have the slightest clue who the real Lelouch is,' Kallen thought as she made sure to keep up her fake appearance to all those around her. Once Lelouch was close enough, he looked at Kallen and said, "Good morning Kallen. It is good to see you this morning." "Same to you. I am sorry that I was not able to attend the meeting this morning, but I had a doctor appointment," Kallen replied as she looked at Lelouch. "It is no problem. It was just getting the budget of all the clubs. It seems like that you looked to be a bit better your health lately," Lelouch commented as he gave a word phase for them to meet up today. "Yes, it seems like the medication that the doctor had given me seems to be working," Kallen answered back as she had agreed to the meet up.

"I have other student council stuff to talk with you about, but that can be done later. It seems like class will begin in a few minutes," Lelouch said as he raised his right hand to the neck collar of his uniform and gave it a bit of a tug up. This simple motion was another signal that was agreed on. The tug on the uniform neck collar met to meet up on the roof top and with it being done with the right hand meant that it is an important matter. "Thank you for letting me know," Kallen replied with a slight nod of her head. Lelouch walked back to his seat. The girls that were around Kallen begin to say that Kallen was so lucky being able to talk with the Ashford Academy's Black Prince. Kallen had to hold back from laughter at the title Black Prince giving the background of Lelouch.

Later in the day during lunch time at Ashford Academy

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

As soon as lunch time came, all the students headed off to get something to eat. Lelouch had left on his own and Kallen had excused herself from the group of girls that she was with. Kallen headed towards a certain stair that headed up to the rooftop of one of the academy's buildings. Kallen looked around and seen that no one was around. Kallen walked up the stairs and soon opened the door. Once the door was open, Kallen saw Lelouch leaning on the railing as he was looking towards the distance.

The moment that Lelouch heard Kallen arrived on the rooftop, he turned his head to face her. Kallen saw the serious look in his eyes, and he had a small grin. "How are you doing from your fight from yesterday, Q-1," Lelouch asked in his Zero character. "I have to admit that the battle in Shinjuku is much different from the first time, but I am glad that some of the results were more favorable," Kallen replied as she broke from her Stadtfeld into Kozuki. "That's good to know. Hopefully you will have a proper Knightmare frame for the next time we face the Lancelot in the next battle," Lelouch said as he started to walk towards Kallen.

Kallen had a smile on her face as she heard this, and she started to walk towards Lelouch as well. Both Lelouch and Kallen stop walking with about two arm length away from each other. It was a few minutes that passed between the two as they stare each other in the eyes. Kallen moved her right arm and reach it out towards Lelouch. Lelouch reached out with his right arm towards her. Lelouch took Kallen's hand into his and then pulled her to him. As Kallen was being pulled towards Lelouch, Kallen spun in a counterclockwise motion as this allow Kallen to be arm wrapped with Lelouch's arm. The end result was Kallen's back on Lelouch's chest as he held her close to him.

Kallen closed her eyes as she felt the warmth that came from Lelouch embrace. Lelouch closed her eyes as he took in the sweet smell that was coming off of Kallen. There was something about Kallen that just put Lelouch in a calming mood and he enjoys it very much. The two stayed like this for about 5 minutes before the two separated. " With that out of the way. I do have some troubling news that I need you to know," Lelouch said with a deep serious tone in his voice. "What is it," Kallen asked as she knew that could be big. "When me and C.C. were about to leave after the business with Clovis, there is mostly the chance that a student from this academy was there and most likely knows the truth about me," Lelouch replied as he saw a shock look on Kallen's face.

"Are you sure about that," Kallen asked with seriousness in her voice given that this is a big problem that could work against them. Lelouch gave a rundown explanation of what happen with Clovis and the finding of the folded paper crane. "And this is the same paper crane that I saw that was dropped by Maya Disel just yesterday before I left with Rivalz," Lelouch finished explaining. "What do you know about Maya. I had very little interaction with her while here at the academy," Kallen asked as she knew that Lelouch would have some information. "From what I was able to gather so far. Maya is a quiet person when she is on the Academy grounds and does very well in all her subjects with her scores in the top range. She doesn't hang out with the other students and usually spends her time alone by herself. The one thing that I took notice that she does miss some days from the Academy, but that does not hinder her studies given her grades," Lelouch answered from what he recalled.

"It almost sounds like you are talking about me in a sense," Kallen replied as she thought over the information. "I thought that too. I did find out that her mother is her foster mother by the name Clarice Garfield. There was nothing else with her history," Lelouch added as this was a sort of red flag. "That is strange. Do you have an idea on that," Kallen asked as she looked at Lelouch. Lelouch took a breath before release as he replied, "I have a few ideas, but a few stands out the most to me. The first would be Maya's history maybe unknown to her and would not have the slightest clue about it. The other would be that Clarice Garfield knows the truth behind Maya and is keeping a secret for some reason. There are some other thoughts on this matter, but nothing seems to stick out at the moment."

Kallen nodded her head and then she asked, "What are you plan on doing?" "My first thought would be to use Geass on her to get the information, but the problem that I see happening is once I use it on her, I won't be able to use it on her again," Lelouch answered. "I can see reason on that," Kallen replied as she gave it a bit thought. "The only other option would be for me to have a private meeting with her and find out what she knows. On the off chance that she is an enemy then I can use Geass on her, but there may be a possibly that she could be an ally," Lelouch said as he saw the shocked look on Kallen's face. "That is a big gamble that you are risking and if she is an enemy, then she may have an idea that you have an ability to control people given that she made have heard you use Geass on Clovis," Kallen said with a little worry in her voice.

"I know and that is why I will have Sayoko on standby just in case," Lelouch said as he saw Kallen relax a bit. Kallen new that she could trust to help and keep Lelouch safe. "We should go and get something to eat before lunch in over," Lelouch said as he knew that it would be hard to focus on class while hungry. "I agree. We will need to talk more about this later when we have more time," Kallen replied back as both her and Lelouch started to walk back to the door for the stairs. "On that note. I believe that my sister would like to have her tea and snack time with you again," Lelouch said as his voice turned from serious to his usually act as a student as they walked down the stairs. "Oh my. I did not realize that I was keeping Nunnally waiting for that. I will make it up to her this afternoon. But after that I would like you to walk me home, there is a cat that looks to belong to a witch that has been on mind lately and I need your help with it," Kallen replied back as she was once again Kallen Stadtfeld. "I will do what I can," Lelouch answered back as he understood what Kallen was asking.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Later in the afternoon at the Student Council Building

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Kallen had finished her visit with Nunnally and had joined Lelouch, Sayoko, and C.C. while Milly was hanging out with Nunnally to keep her busy. "It's good to see you Queen," C.C. said in her usual bored tone. "Same to you, witch," Kaleen replied back. C.C. was laying on the bed with her Cheese-Kun by her. "What did you want to see me about," C.C. asked as she looks at Kallen. Kallen took a deep breath in and then released it as she looked at C.C. "I want you to make a contract with me for a Geass," Kallen replied with determination in her voice. Lelouch, C.C. and Sayoko were surprised by the request that Kallen made. "Are you sure about this Kallen," Lelouch asked with concern in his voice. Lelouch was getting scarred at the thought that if by chance that Black Knight was to betray him again and it came to light that Kallen had a Geass as well then that would mean doom for her.

"I am. The way that I see it is this. Right now, in the Britannia Empire there are an unknown amount of Geass user, and we only have your Geass and the Geass Canceller. I am hoping for that there is a chance the Geass will be helpful in any way possible. This is my choice," Kallen answered back and it then that someone else stepped forward. "I also request to make a contract as well," was said by none other than Sayoko. "You to Sayoko," Lelouch said as he looks at her. "Given who are foes are in the Empire, there is also Mao, and I refused to let Lady Nunnally to be put in danger once again. I will not only my skill, but the power of Geass to do it. I will keep both you and Lady Nunnally safe as well," Sayoko answered with the same determination as Kallen.

"Very well then," C.C. said as she got off the bed and stood before the two. "In exchange for this power, the two of you must both agree to make my wish come true. Accept this contract and you accept its conditions, while living in the world of humans, you will live unlike any other. A different providence, a different time, a different life. The power of the king will condemn you to a life of solitude. Are the two you prepared for this," C.C asked as the hair that covered her forehead was suddenly pushed back by some unknown force and revealed the Geass logo on her forehead.

This logo on her forehead was known as the Code and C.C. was known as a Code Bearer. This Code was what gave the Code Bearer to make it possible to give people the power of Geass. There was another ability that the Code Bearers has that was the result of the Code and that was being immortal and unable to age even a day as they live. Those that are Code Bearers considered the Code to be both a blessing and a curse at the same time. There was also one other ability that the Code Bearers had and that was being unable to be affected by any Geass that was given. How a Code Bearer can gain the power of the Code is only know to the Code Bearer.

"I agree," both Kallen and Sayoko replied at the same time. There was a blight light that covered the room for a second before it was gone. Inside Kallen's mind, she heard a voice say, 'Absolute Vision.' As for Sayoko she also heard a voice said in her mind and that was, 'Absolute Suppression.' In the left eyes in both girls, the power of Geass formed. "I believe that you two should had heard a voice," C.C. said as she looked at the two. "I heard the words Absolute Vision," Kallen replied as she was taking slow breaths. "I heard the voice say Absolute Suppression," Sayoko replied as well.

"We have to learn what your Geass can do and find out both limits and weakness before using in situation," Lelouch said as that is what he did after he tried to use his Geass a second time on Kallen as it did not work. Lelouch had to figure out range, time limit, and if certain eye wears that can block the Geass like the visors that Mao wore. Sayoko activated her Geass and both Kallen and Lelouch seen that she just disappeared before their eyes. "Where are you Sayoko," Lelouch asked as he was curious what Sayoko's Geass was. "I am right here," Sayoko said as hear voice was heard in the room. "Can you stop your Geass," Kallen asked. It was then that Sayoko once again appeared before them. The only one that knew where Sayoko was at was C.C.

"I believe that Sayoko's Geass allows her to able to suppress her appearance to those around her," C.C. explained from her observations from the reactions of both Kallen and Lelouch. "So, it is similar to Rolo's Geass," Lelouch asked. "In a way. Sayoko's Geass will affect everyone around her which is completely different from yours," C.C. answered back. "I find it quite funny how her Geass is similar to that of a ninja," Kallen said, and everyone let out a chuckle. "Your turn Kallen," Lelouch said and Kallen active her Geass. "I can't tell what is happening," Kallen said as she looks at Lelouch. Kallen shifted her sights away from Lelouch and begin to look around the room. It was then that Sayoko had an idea and used her Geass to disappear.

"Miss Kallen, can you tell where I am at this moment," Sayoko asked as her voice was sounding like it was moving and Lelouch turned to look where Sayoko was at and seen that she was gone. "You are right behind me," Kallen replied in shocked at knowing that without turning around. Sayoko stopped her Geass and reappeared once again this behind Kallen. After a moment of thought, Lelouch turned to Kallen and said, "I believe that your Geass allows you a sense of knowing of what all around you is without you turning to look. An example would be if you were being followed by a stalker that was hiding and with your Geass you would be able to notice him." "If she can master her Geass, then it would prove to be most useful when she is piloting a frame in battle," C.C. added.

"This maybe be the trump card that we can use against the Knight of One Bismarck," Lelouch said in realization. "It would seem that both Kallen's and Sayoko's Geass will be most useful when used in the right setting," C.C. replied as she laid back on the bed. "You are right about that and there are a couple of things that I can think of," Lelouch said as he begun to have a few thoughts. Sayoko looked at the clock that was nearby and seen that it was getting late. "Excuse me everyone, it is getting close to evening, and I think that everyone here is getting hunger," Sayoko said as everyone's stomach started to rumble. Lelouch turned to Kallen and asked, "Kallen, would you like to have dinner with me and Nunnally?" "I would like that," Kallen answered with a smile.

"Miss C.C. I will bring some food," Sayoko said as C.C. nodded her head. Lelouch, Kallen, and Sayoko had left the room and headed off to the kitchen to get dinner ready for the night. Nunnally had a smile on her face when she saw that Kallen was going to be eating with her and her brother. The moment that Nunnally's sight was returned was a happy moment for her. She was introduced to Kallen after that time. Nunnally could see that Kallen really cared for brother with how they interacted with each other. Nunnally could remember from when she was young how her brother was when they lived at the Aries Imperial Villa and from what heard after she was blind when living in Japan. She was not sure, but there was something about Lelouch that she was not sure of. But now that is different with Kallen around him.

Nunnally was not sure what caused the changes in her brother, but she was happy that her brother had managed to find someone special to him. She had in the past talked with Shirley and knew that she had feeling for her brother, but it seems like Lelouch did not have the same feelings as Shirley. Nunnally figured that there must have been something about Kallen that was different from Shirley. Nunnally had slowly started to see Kallen as an older sister figure to her. A few times when Kallen and Nunnally had their tea and snack time together, Kallen had brought Nunnally a few treats that Kallen's mother had made and Nunnally really enjoyed them.

As the three of them were enjoying their dinner, Nunnally was informing both Kallen and Lelouch how Sayoko had started to teach her the art of paper folding or origami as it known as. Nunnally said that she was amazed at how skillful the Japanese are. It touched Kallen's heart at how Nunnally refused to call the Japanese people Eleven no matter what. Both Kallen and Lelouch smiled at how excited Nunnally was being. Nunnally had say that if fold a thousand of cranes, then your wished would come true and then she had asked Lelouch and Kallen if there was anything that they were wishing for.

Both Kallen and Lelouch replied that there was not and then Kallen asked Nunnally what she would wish for. Nunnally answered that she wished that the world would be a gentler place. Lelouch replied that it will be some day. It was then that Nunnally showed both Kallen and Lelouch about the Japanese promise the other day. IT was then that Nunnally had Lelouch make a promise with her. Kallen noticed that Lelouch's hand twitched slightly and was a bit concern. Kallen excused herself as she had to make a called and was gone for a few minutes before she rejoined in eating with the two Lamperouge siblings.

Kallen had informed the two that with it being late that she will be staying the night. Kallen had done this in the last four months since joining the Student Council. Kallen had some of her clothes in one of the bedrooms that way she did not need to make the trip back home. Nunnally took this as how Kallen was not in good health at times, and it was probably much safer for her to stay here then going back home so late. This was just a cover story that Kallen had made with Lelouch's helps. This was done so Kallen and Lelouch would discuss on things. There was also another reason for it and Kallen would be doing it.

Meanwhile at a secret lab

"As you know full well, the project was a complete failure. Therefore, this research division is being gutted," Bartley said in a disappointing tone in his voice as he was addressing a bunch of researcher staff members. Hanging on the wall were some white uniform outfits that C.C. was wearing inside the canister. And behind the staff members were a bunch of canisters that was holding C.C. "Wha...? Yes, but-," One of the staff members was said before being cutoff. "I've set up a place in Narita for you. Move everything out there. With the mess of not only me but the other stuff members having to leave Price Clovis by himself that led to him being assassinated. I'm gonna be called out on the carpet for this back home. When that happens, if his Majesty is to learn about this experiment's that has being going on without his knowledge, Then I..," Bartley was saying as he stops as he could not bring himself to finished, but the researchers had the idea of what Bartley was going to say next. "Understood, sir. We'll start prepping immediately," one of the researchers said as there were a bunch of pictures of C.C. in them on the table.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Later that night in Lelouch's bedroom

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Once dinner was over, Lelouch and Kallen had cleaned up as Sayoko went to get Nunnally ready for bed. When the cleaning was done, both Kallen and Lelouch left to get changed for the night. Lelouch was laying in his bed with only a lamp that was on being the only light source in the room. Lelouch was staring at the ceiling as he was lost in his thoughts. Lelouch was wearing a simple sleeping shorts and was currently shirtless as he was laying on the bed. There was a lot on Lelouch's mind. Any other thoughts that Lelouch was going to had been interrupted by the sound of knocking coming from his bedroom door. "Come in," Lelouch said as he looked towards the door as he seen the door was being opened.

The person that was opening the door was Kallen. Kallen had her down and was wearing a simple female sleeping clothes. Kallen closed the door with locking it behind and started to head over to the bed where Lelouch was at. Kallen was trying to keep the red from her face as she could not help but stare at the muscles that Lelouch had on his upper body. Lelouch had muscles that looks like a body builder. "Was there something that you needed Kallen," Lelouch asked as he was still looking at Kallen. "I figured that we could talk for a bit before we get some sleep for the night," Kallen answered as she got onto the bed and sat down on the bed. "What do you want to talk about," Lelouch asked as he sat up in bed. "How are you feeling after going threw everything after Shinjuku," Kallen replied.

"With all things consider I am okay. Suzaku does not know about C.C., so that is good. I gave C.C. the chance to get back at Clovis for her treatment. How are you feeling after having the chance to battle in Shinjuku again," Lelouch answered back as he started to relax. "I got to admit it was a bit refreshing and a rush with fighting like that again with you in command. I am glad that I was able to get some hit in on Suzaku, but I will probably enjoy it even better when I am in the Guren again," Kallen replied with a grin. "I just remember that there is something that I wanted to ask you. Do you know the person that was driving the truck with you," Lelouch asked. "That was Takeshi Nagata. Why do you ask," Kallen asked with a tilt of her head.

"Before Suzaku shown up, I took a look in the cab of the truck and saw that he was shot up with bullets and was on the verge of death. To think that it was thanks to him that I was saved from being killed the first time. Did he happened to have any family," Lelouch replied back as he closed his eyes before opening them again. "Nagata had a wife and daughter. If I remember right, he used to work as a potter before joining the resistance," Kallen answered as she realized that it was that surprised attack that came from Villette. "After I make my appearance as Zero before the world, I will write and sent a letter to them. I believe that it would be best to inform them that Nagata did not die for nothing. It is because of him that gave Japan the chance to fight back that day," Lelouch said with a determined look on his face.

"That is a good idea," Kallen replied with a smile at what Lelouch was going to do. Kallen moved from where she was sitting at and got closer to Lelouch. "How are you feeling Lelouch," Kallen asked with the sound of concern in her voice. "I am good. Why do you ask," Lelouch replied as he looked at Kallen. "I saw your hand twitch when we were talking with Nunnally. Lelouch, you don't have to keep things bottled up inside. I am here for you," Kallen said with the sound of caring in her voice. Kallen wrapped her arms around Lelouch and pulled him close to her in hug. Lelouch rested his head on Kallen right shoulder as he closed his eyes. "I know Kallen, but it is still hard given how long that I have been doing things by myself," Lelouch said in a soft tone in his voice.

This was the other reason that Kallen would stay at the Student Council building with Lelouch and Nunnally. Even with Kallen going into Lelouch's mind with the help of Kitsune. Lelouch was back to how he was before, but there were times that he would a relapse of the sort. Kallen knew that it would take quite some time before Lelouch would be better. Until then Kallen would be there when he needs it. Kallen will stay by Lelouch's side for no matter how long that would be, but she doesn't care since this is the man that she loves.

As Kallen continued to comfort Lelouch, Lelouch had decided to share some of the problems that was on his mind. The thing that caught Kallen attention was how Lelouch was not sure what to do about Suzaku. Lelouch knew that Suzaku would be nothing but trouble for Lelouch's plan. But Lelouch could not being himself to kill Suzaku given their friendship before the invasion of Japan. Kallen knew that this problem with Suzaku was going to be trouble for Lelouch as time goes on with the fighting that is to come. Kallen had made her decision right at this moment and that would be she would be the one to take care of the problem with Suzaku.

Kallen knew that she can't do it right away for a few reasons. The first would be he would be needed to be saved by Zero so he will be revealed to the world. The other would be his somewhat assisted with the hotel takeover. The next thing that she could think of was the High Eunuchs using Atsushi Sawaski under the pretext of free Japan but secretly being under the control of China. This was confirmed by Li Xinge when they had the chance to ask about it. As much as Kallen hated to admit it, Suzaku was needed help at times. But that would not stop Kallen from given Suzaku the much-needed beat down that he has coming to him.

Kallen hated how Suzaku is not only Japanese, but that he sided with the Britannia. Kallen had learned quite a bit about Suzaku. Suzaku believes that all the Japanese should just accept being defeated by the Britannia and stop fighting. The thing that Suzaku could not understand is how the Japanese people could never accept the defeat and how they are now living. The Japanese people hated how their freedom, history, and everything that Japanese people had made, created, and gain since the founding of Japan. The Japanese people still have their pride as Japanese and Suzaku had thrown away his pride just to be a part of the Britannia Empire.

Kallen also hated the mindset of Suzaku had developed. The mindset that Suzaku had is that he believes that he is in the right no matter how wrong it is. The example of this is how he believes that Zero is in the wrong in fighting against Britannia and causing lots of bloodshed. Suzaku sees that Zero is similar to his father. Kallen can't stand how Suzaku is blind to the suffering of Japanese by the hands of the Britannia. Suzaku believes that if you just work hard and try to become an honorary Britannian then they would be treated as equals, but that is not true in the slightest. Kallen has seen what Britannias do to the honorary Britannias. There is the relationship that she has with Lelouch, and she has learned how both him and Nunnally were simply tossed aside by their father, the Emperor.

Kallen can't believe that Suzaku how blind that he was to everything. It was because of everything that Kallen knows Suzaku and his character, she would have no problems if she was the one to kill Suzaku. Kallen would do this so that way Lelouch will not be burden by the guilt of killing his friend in battle. Soon their talks started to come for an end for the night. The two of them had gotten settled in the bed with sheet covering their bodies. As they started to fell asleep, Kallen slept as closed to Lelouch as she could as Lelouch's arms wrapped around Kallen to keep her close. The two were sleeping peacefully in the dark room with the only light that was in the room was coming through the window from the moon's light.

The next day at Ashford Academy

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Soon the night became morning of the next day. Kallen had woken up before Lelouch and she could not help but blush red in the face at the position that she was in. The left side of her head was laying on Lelouch's chest and one of her hands was on his abs where he happened to have a bit of a six-pack showing. Kallen could not help but enjoy the feeling of how Lelouch muscle that he had was feeling. This was a deep secret reason of hers that she would enjoy when she stayed the night here. Before anything else could be done, there was a knock on the door that came from Sayoko. Soon Kallen got Lelouch to wake up and then both of them got ready for the day. Kallen enjoyed eating breakfast with both Lelouch and Nunnally.

Lelouch and Kallen went to their morning class for their lessons. While at the Academy, both Lelouch and Kallen had kept an eye out for Maya. It seems like that the day before; Maya was absent for the day. The plan was simple once they seen Maya on Academy grounds. Lelouch would approach her and invite her to meet up at the Student Council building after school. Lelouch would have Sayoko on standby just in case for a worst-case scenario. Kallen did have to take a call from Ohgi while on break and Kallen had no problem with taking that call since it was just as before.

It did not take long before Lelouch to find Maya during one of the free periods. Lelouch had walked up to Maya and asked her if she would meet with him after school to talk about some Academy matters that involves her. Maya had accepted and agree to meet at the Student Council building after school today. Lelouch had messaged Kallen to let her know and Kallen replied back that she will be on standby with Sayoko as well.

Meanwhile on a highway

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

There were about eight Sutherland frames that was circled around an armored tank that was going down the highway. Inside the armor tank was a coffin that held inside was none other than the body of Prince Clovis. The only person in the room with the coffin was Bartley. Bartley had his head down as it rested in his right hand. "And the research center," Bartley asked over the phone. "Transferred to Narita last night," an army soldier answered back over the phone. "Right then," Bartely replied before hanging up. "I pray that you forgive me. Your Highness," Bartley said out loud with no one in the room hearing him. It was then that the convoy was attacked by Jermiah and the rest of the Purist Faction. Jeremiah was determined to get a sort of confusion out of the man. Jeremiah knew the true, but he had to keep those that he was in charge of that Purist were not having any bull crap on their watch.

Back at Ashford Academy

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

It was then that the afternoon had come. Lelouch had met up with Maya and then the two headed to a room that Sayoko had set up for their meeting. "Thank you for meeting with me," Lelouch said with his usual smile that he always gives to everyone as he gestures to the chairs that was set up. "You did mention that you had to talk to me about me and the Academy. What did you need to talk to me about," Maya asked as she sits down in one the chairs. "I seen that you some absences, but managed to keep you grades up," Lelouch said after he sat in the other chair. "I have things that I like to take care on those days that I was not here. I figured that as long that I kept up with my studies that it would be no problem," Maya replied in a calm tone, but on the inside, she was nervous.

XXXX

The reason for that nervous is that Maya had overheard a bit of what Lelouch said at the G-1 base two days ago. Maya was there with the intent to find and kill Clovis. Maya hated how Clovis was treating the Japanese like trash and not caring one bit. The reason why Maya was like this was a simply and that was she is half Britannia half Japanese. Maya was in Shinjuku that day was because she was visiting some of the kids that she was friends with. She had arrived just as the battle started to happen. Maya searched like crazy for her friends and was not able to find them. She did find a down damaged Sutherland frame that was still working. Maya climbed into the cockpit and started to pilot it. It did not take long form her to reached where Lelouch was given order to the freedom fighters.

Maya was impressed that there was someone that was able to give this much trouble to the Britannia. It was then that the battle turned against them when the white Knightmare frame shown up. It was then that the white frame was chasing two Sutherland frames. It was then that Maya made the decision to use the frame that she was in and used the self-destruct function on that white frame. Maya knew that it would probably not be able to make a difference, but she had to do something. When the cockpit had ejected, she was able to make her where to the G-1 base. Maya happened to find a handgun that was left behind in the Sutherland that she was piloting.

She was successfully sneak into the base and made her way to where Clovis was at. Once she was at the door, she had heard the sound of a gun being shot. After the shot, she placed her left ear on the door to listen in if there was going to be any talking. It was then that she had heard two things that shocked her. The first would be when she heard a woman say the name Lelouch and confirmed it when he heard his voice. The other was when Lelouch mentioned about justice and peace. Those two words struck a chord deep inside herself. She had hated how Britannias treated everyone that was labeled with number was unjust and was causing nothing but bloodshed in all the areas that they have invaded. Maya could not help but grit her teeth hard at this. Maya left in hurry and unkownly dropped the paper crane. Maya had taken yesterday off to get her thoughts in order.

Before the invasion of Japan, Maya was living a good life with her family. There was her father, Soichiro, who was Japanese, her mother, Vaniella, her twin brother, Mario, and her little sister, Leena. When they were living together, their last name at the time was Domeki. Both of Maya's parents were very much in love with each other, but her aunt, Carly Disel, did not like Soichiro at all. When Britainnias attacked Japan, Both of Maya's parent tried to get to safely, but Maya was knocked out and later when she came around, she was in bed. She was found by Clarice Garfield and she had told Maya that her parents, brother and little sister were dead and that Maya was found still alive. Clarice was an intern that was working at the same research center as Maya's parents.

Maya had informed Clarice all that she knows, but she got painfully headaches to a point. It seems like that Maya had memory loss of what happen that day. Doctors had informed both Maya and Clarice that the memories would come to her one day. After that, Clarice had taken upon herself to take Maya and be a foster mother to her. Clarice had Maya changed her last name from Domeki to Garfield to protect her as she was growing up. There was one thing that has always happened when she was growing up. It was when she saw a picture or anything news related that shown Carly Disel, Maya would unknowingly form a fist with her hand and grit her teeth as hard as possible in rage at seeing Carly. Clarice took noticed of this one day and was curious as to why. It was still a mystery to this day.

"You have also miss days at the Academy as well," Maya said as she looked at Lelouch. "I can't argue with that now can I," Lelouch replied back. "I had heard two days ago when I was walking around the Academy ground and Shirley was saying something about gambling," Maya said as she remembers that day. "I had a called from an associate and had to play a game of chess against a very arrogant and prideful noble," Lelouch answered. Somehow Lelouch could feel the eye rolls that were coming from both Kallen and Sayoko. "I see. How did that go," Maya asked as she was curious. "I was able to beat him under nine minutes which to some would be impossible if they saw the chess board that was played so far before I took over," Lelouch answered with a smile as he remembers how the noble looked from that defeat. "Why do you gamble," Maya asked as it was known to the other students that Lelouch always leave the Academy ground during the day to gamble.

"The reason for the gambling it is the quickest way to get the money as quick as possible. I do have a little sister that I care for very much," Lelouch answered with a small smile on face. Maya knows all about Nunnally given that she is known all over the Academy grounds. Nunnally was the sweetest girl when they were introduced to. Maya may hate all Britannias, but Nunnally was one that she could bring herself to hate even a bit. Everyone was familiar with how protective Lelouch is with his sister. It was quite the shocking news that spread around the Academy when word came out about Nunnally able to see again and then being able to walk with the help of robotic leg frames.

Lelouch decided that now was enough of the small talk and time to get the real answers that he need to know. "Before we talk any farer, I believe that you may want this back," Lelouch said as he pulled out the paper crane with his right hand. Lelouch had his left hand ready by the gun that was under the table. Maya had the look of surprised on her face as she seen the paper crane. "Where did you find that," Maya asked and it was then that she realized that she was now in trouble. "I found it on the floor of the G-1 base," Lelouch answered as his voice turned serious. "I guess there is no point in hiding the facts. I was at the G-1 base that Prince Clovis was using that day," Maya said with her voice serious as well. "I want to know why you were day," Lelouch asked as his left hand touched the hidden gun.

"I was there to kill Prince Clovis," Maya answered which shocked Lelouch, Kallen, and Sayoko. The three were surprised to hear something like that. "Why would want to do that," Lelouch asked as his hand moved away from the gun for the moment. "I hate how the Britannias treat the Japanese sine they invaded," Maya replied as Lelouch could see the hated that was in Maya's eyes. That was the same hated that Lelouch had when abandon by his family and casted aside. "I noticed that you called the Japanese by their proper name and not by Eleven. Why is that" Lelouch asked as this caught Kalle's attention as well. "The reason is that I am half Japanese from my father," Maya answered. Lelouch was surprised by this since he had look over the Academy records of Maya and did not see anything about her being half Japanese. Kallen was surprised to find another person at the Academy that was half Japanese like her and also hated the Britannias the same way.

"Now, can you answer a question of mind," Maya asked. "What is your question," Lelouch replied back. "Were you serious about being justice and peace to this world," Maya asked with a bit of hope in eyes as she looks at Lelouch. "Yes, I am," Lelouch answered with his eyes showing no lies and only the truth. "May I know the reason why you would fight against Britannia," Maya asked as she wanted to know the reason. "Both me and my sister have been treated firsthand by Britannia when we were younger before the invasion of Japan. And when the invasion happened, I had to carry my sister who was still blind at that time on my back threw the ground cover by the dead. I had to lie to my sister about the smell and had to give her the more food than I just to make sure that she was taken care of. It was doing that time that I decided to do everything that I can to bring Britannia to its knees," Lelouch answered with the sound of determination in his voice.

Maya started to look at Lelouch in a whole new way. "I know that defeating Britannia will be no simple task, but I believe that it can be done," Lelouch said as he remembers all the battle that he was in and how some of those battles were close to their victories at time. Lelouch knew that it was very possible to defeat Britannia. "By chance was that your first battle in Shinjuku," Maya asked as she had seen how the battle was going. "Yes, it was, but it was only possible when the person that is given the orders knows what he is doing. Prince Clovis did not understand the first thing about fighting on the battlefield and I was able to use that overconfidence against him. That white Knightmare frame was unexpected," Lelouch replied as he had to lie a bit about that battle. Maya begun to explain to Lelouch the reason that she was there and that she was the one to stop the white Knightmare frame that was chasing after Lelouch and C.C.

"I am thankful for that. You now know where I stay at with the fight against Britannia, but what about you," Lelouch asked as he looked Maya in the eyes. "When the Britannia invaded Japan, my parents tried to get us to safety. I was knock out and when I came to, I found out that my parents and siblings were dead and I was the only one alive. I don't know for sure because I have a bit of memory loss from that, but I believe that Britannia is responsible for it," Maya answered with hated. "I have proposition for you. If you agree to work with me, then I will do everything that I can to help you find the answers that you want,", Lelouch said as he knew this would be a perfect chance to gain a new ally to help him.

"It sounds like a good deal, but before I agree. I must know how serious you are," Maya answered back. "How do I do that," Lelouch replied. "I am not sure about that, but I will let you know," Maya answered as she had to think about this. "How about for the mean time that you join the Student Council. This way it will give you a bit of cover here at the Academy and we can talk in private," Lelouch said as he knew this could help all that were involve. "You have a point. I will do it," Maya replied back with her answer. "I should let you know that there are three other people that are here at the Academy that knows the truth about my fight with Britannia," Lelouch informed her. "Who are they," Maya asked in surprised. "The first is Milly Ashford since we have been childhood friends before the invasion. The next is Sayoko who is a maid that helps me with Nunnally. I have asked her to keep Nunnally safe for me," Lelouch answered.

Maya was surprised to know that Milly knows about Lelouch fighting against Britannia and the maid that she had seen at time who she knows is Japanese. "Who is the third person," Maya asked. "The last person is Kallen Stadtfeld," Lelouch answered in a calming manner. "Why would a girl from a noble family be involved with this," Maya asked in shock given she knew about the Kallen Stadtfeld at the Academy. "It is because I am also half Japanese as well," Kallen answered as she entered the room. She was not talking like Kallen Stadtfeld, but as Kallen Kozuki. Maya was surprised by how Kallen was talking now was completely different from the Kallen that she seen at the Academy. "I was listening in the whole time. I am quite shocked to learn of another person that in half Japanese and hates the Britannias just like me," Kallen said as she took a seat at the table.

"How are you involved in this Kallen," Maya asked. It was then that Kallen explained her history to Maya. "It was only by chance that Lelouch found out that I am part of one the resistance fighter's groups. As some trust was being built between the two of us, I learned a bit more of Lelouch's history then what he shared with you so far," Kallen said as she was looking at Maya. "What do you mean by more of his history," Maya asked in confusion and a tilt of her head. "That is of a later date when the both of you had built some solid trust," Kallen answered as she knew if Maya was to know that Lelouch is exile prince of Britannia. The three finished their talking and left the room. The three were heading towards the main exit it was then that they were stopped by the other members of the Student Council, Sayoko, and Nunnally.

"What are all of you doing here," Lelouch asked in confusion. "Sayoko came and informed me that we have a new member of the Student Council. I have decided to throw a welcoming party," Milly answered with a smile on her face. "I don't know what to say about this, but I am grateful for a warm welcoming," Maya said after getting over her shock. It was not long for the party to begin. Maya was being introduced to everyone that was one the council. Rivalz was saying that he was disappointed that he was unable to get the champagne for the party since it was lock tightly. Unknown to some, Lelouch had given the key to Milly's grandfather for safe keeping. There was a tv set up and it was on.

It was that a special announcement was shown. It had come out that Prince Clovis had been found dead. Everyone was shocked, but not more so than Nunnally. Kallen, Lelouch, and Maya had made sure that they had a look of surprised for no one to noticed anything strange. "Prince Clovis has been taken from us. He fought for peace and justice against all of the Elevens. He died a Martyr. We must all bury out sorry and carry on his will. Until a new Viceroy is chosen, I will be acting Viceroy for the time being. I make you this promise that I will find the one responsible for this crime and see to it that they are brought to justice," Jeremiah said at a press conference with the Purist Faction behind him.

'Well done with the speech Jeremaih,' Lelouch thought as he knew what was about to happened next. "We interrupt this broadcast with breaking news. The man suspected as the murderer has been captured. According to this report, the suspect in an honorary Britanian. Private Suzaku Kururugi, a former Eleven and honorary Britanian. I repeat, Suzaku Kururugi is being arrested for murder," said the tv announcer as a video was show of Suzaku wearing prisoner uniform as he was being escorted by some Britannia soldiers. At one-point Suzaku was smack around the back of his head as he was trying to say he was innocent.

After the breaking news, no one in the room was no longer in the mood to enjoy the party after that. They all apologize to Maya, but she said it was understandable. As everyone was leaving, Lelouch asked quietly to Kallen, "You know what to do next right?" "16:00 the day after tomorrow at Tokyo Tower with the others," Kallen replied back and seen Lelouch nodded his head. With that Kallen left to head back to the Stadtfeld manor. Sayoko had taken Nunnally to get a bath. Maya and Lelouch were left alone, and it was then that Lelouch had an idea. Lelouch turned to Maya and said, "Maya, I think I know a way to show you how serious I am about fight Britannia." "And how will you do that," Maya asked as she looked at Lelouch. "How about me rescuing Suzaku from that fate that he is in right at this moment and turn everyone to the true killer so to speak," Lelouch replied back. "That will do it, but how will you do it and not only that, but what about everyone realizing that you did it with you identity being known," Maya said with curious look on her face. "You will have to wait and see," Lelouch replied with a smile. Soon Maya left to return home and Lelouch headed off to get ready to settle in for the night.

Interrogation Room

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"Do you know anything about this gun," a man that was asking as there was a handgun that was in a clear plastic bag that said evidence on it. The man had light brown hair with the front of his hair that was combed from the right to the left. This man was Kewell Soresi, he was a part of the Purist Faction, and he was currently interrogating Suzaku who was sitting in a chair with his arms bind to his side. "Suzaku Kururugi, it was the one used to rob Prince Clovis of his life. The barrel striations leave no doubt, and we've also done a background search on you. You're the eldest child of Japan's last acting prime minister, are you not? It seems like the motives are clear here," Kewell said with a smirk. This was part of Kewell plan with helping the Purist Faction.

Since it was impossible to find the real killer, it only made sense to pin the blame on someone, and the perfect choice is a man that is an honorary Britannia and was also in the army. Suzaku fit that to a tee and given his background made it more believable. "You're making a mistake. I have never evn laid eyes on that gun before," Suzaku replied back as he was telling the truth. It was then a guard on Suzaku's left kicked the leg of the chair that caused Suzaku to fell and hit the ground. With his arms in a bind, it made it impossible to get up. "We've found your fingerprints all over this weapon," Kewell said as he lifted the bag with the gun.

"You're also suspected of murdering members of the Royal Guard. If you come clear now, then you'll be judge as though you were born as a Britannia and not some worth less Eleven," Kewell said as he looked down on Suzaku. "You're wrong! I've done nothing...," Suzaku was saying before another guard kick him right in the face that stopped him in mid-sentence. Kewell had a smirk on his face as he ate a cookie that happened to belong to Suzaku. As he took a bit not knowing the dangers of what he was eating at the moment.

At the clubroom at night at Ashford Academy

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Lelouch was tucking in Nunnally in her bed for the night. Lelouch had picked Nunnally up from her wheelchair to moved her to her bed. They had kept the wheelchair around for when Nunnally was not using her leg frames. The wheelchair was only used in morning before Nunnally got ready for the day, at night before going to bed, or when the leg frames needed some maintenance when it was needed. "That was Suzaku They mentioned on the news, wasn't it," Nunnally asked as Lelouch placed her on the bed. "Yep, it looks like he's still alive," Lelouch replied as he helped Nunnally to get settled in her bed. "Yeah, it's been ages. We haven't seen him since the war had ended," Nunnally said as Lelouch pulled the bed sheet to cover her body. "Lelouch," Nunnally said as she looks towards Lelouch.

"What is it," Lelouch asked as looks back at Nunnally. "It wasn't true what the news said, was it," Nunnally asked with the sad tone in her voice. "Of course not. Suzaku would never do anything like that. They've just the wrong person," Lelouch answered as he took Nunnally's hand into his own and gave a gentle squeeze. "Yeah...that must be it," Nunnally said as she started to drift off to sleep. "Good night, Nunnally," Lelouch said softy before he placed a kiss on her forehead. Lelouch headed towards the door to head off to bed. Lelouch turned off the light just as exit threw the door. Just before he closed the door, he gave Nunnally sleeping form a look and thought to himself, 'I just hope that when you learn the truth of what I done you will not change because of it.' With that Lelouch closed the door.

In a room of what could be considered to be the HQ of the Kozuki Resistance

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

There was only two people in the room and there was a TV on a desk that was playing the news of Prince Clovis's death and the murderer being Suzaku. The two people in the room were Kaname Ohgi and Shinichiro Tamaki. Ohgi had grey eyes and brown hair as he is wearing a red headband that showed he is a member of the Kozuki Resistance. Tamaki had brown eyes and brown hair as he was also wearing a red headband. Most of the members of the Kozuki Resistance pretty much call Tamaki a loudmouth idiot since he can never shut up and usually, he put his foot into his mouth countless times and also not taking the time to think thing correctly.

"That's why we should've issued a freaking statement sooner. We could've taken credit for it," Tamaki said in anger in his voice before he stormed out the room. With the slam of the door, Ohgi turned around and look at a photo that was nearby. In the photo was him, Kallen, and another person who happened to be Kallen's brother Naoto Kozuki. "Naoto, I'm not cut out for this. I'm no leader," Ohgi said out loud to no one as he looked at Naoto in the photo.

Next day at Ashford Academy

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

It was the next day, and an assembly was called for all the students. "Truly this bitterly painful incident for all, the Viceroy of Area 11, our beloved Prince Clois has been lost to us forever. However, we can and will bear the weight of this tragedy, and from this darkest of hours draw strength," the principal was saying, and he continued to talk. Lelouch looked over to Kallen and he figured that she was probably bored out of her mind with this just as he is. Lelouch then looked to the window and saw doves flying by as he drowns out the talks of the principal's speech.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

In a hanger where the Lancelot was at (*There will be scenes changes happen for a bit*)

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

The Lancelot was docked into position with cables and engineers doing tunes up on the frame. They were even fixing the damaged that red Glasgow caused by a kick and also the damages from when the Lancelot was attacked from behind. Standing in front of the Lancelot was both Lloyd and Cecile as they looked at the Lancelot. "We've lost the most crucial part of the equation," Lloyd said in bum type tone in voice. "Can we do it without him," Cecile asked as she looked at Lloyd. "Don't I wish. The other units never let go of a good pilot. And even if we got one, they'll never match his readings. His operational efficiency clocked at 94 percent. You just wanna replace him," Lloyd replied backed. "You should tell them that, perhaps they'll let Suzaku go," Cecile said as she realized that Lloyd was right. Lloyd let out a sigh and then replied, "He's an honorary Britannia, they'd never listen. Ever since General Bartley's disgraced, the purebloods have the military, and I am gripped."

~Scene changes Ashford Academy~

All the students were leaving the assembly. Lelouch, Maya, Rivalz, Kallen, and Shirley were walking out together. "The Pureblood's what," Shirley was asking as he was talking with Lelouch. "Well, from what I understand, they're saying that only pureblood Britanians should be allowed to serve in the military.

~Scene changes to the Lancelot Hanger~

"Their views is that one of their own can never be a criminal. But if the criminal is an Eleven, then it pays the way for the Purebloods to shut down the practice of granting natives' honorary status," Lloyd finished explaining. "And what about Suzaku," Cecile asked in tone of her voice that sounds like worry and concern. "He is fated so but decided. But the strange thing is that they are now charging Suzaku with the attempt of murder with poison and the person was rushed to get his stomach pumped out," Lloyd replied as Cecile had emotion of sadness on her face then turned into confusion. "But there is probably a bit of a silver lining," Lloyd said as he looked at Cecile taking the thoughts of poison attempt. "What is that," Cecile asked with a tilt of her head. "During that battle in Shinjuku, it seems like that the communication division had intercepted some of the transmission that came from the terrorist. It seems like that whoever the leader was it was smart of him to give those under him codenames to keep their identities hidden," Lloyd answered as he headed over to a nearby desk.

"I see, but how is that good news," Cecile asked as she was not following what Llyod was getting at. "The pilot of the red Glasgow that kicked the Lancelot's head had some amazing skills to be able to keep up with a seventh-generation frame in an outdated fourth-generation frame. I believe that whoever that female pilot is quite skilled," Lloyd replied as he took a seat in a chair. "How do you know that the pilot is a female," Cecile asked. "There was the codename that was used when orders were given to her and that codename is Q-1. The Q is meaning to be queen like on a chess board. Given the other codenames that was heard it stays to reason that is correct assumption. The other fact is from what video data that came from the Sutherlands that showed the Glasgow had the piloting style of a female that men do not have," Lloyd replied as he played the video chips of the red Glasgow from Shinjuku.

Cecile watched the video and had to agree with Lloyd saying that the pilot of the red Glasgow is a female. "I have to admit that the pilot's skill is quite something and you are right about the pilot being female," Cecile said after she saw all of the video. "If this pilot's skills are at this level with a fourth-generation frame, then can you image what her skills would be with frame on the level of seventh generation," Lloyd said as a grin was appearing on his face. "It that is true then that would mean that it is possible that her operational efficiency could be around Suzaku's. So, what is the plan," Cecile asked as she knew that Lloyd had an idea of the sort. "I will talk with some of the higher ups and try to convince them to try to capture this pilot and see if we can work out a deal of the sort. This is the best way that I can see that we are able to get a talented pilot," Lloyd answered as Cecile let out a sigh.

Back at the Ashford Academy

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Suddenly Kallen stopped in mid step and shiver as a chill ran down her spine. "Are you okey Kallen," Shirley asked as she seen Kallen shake a bit. "I am. I think that someone was possibly that someone was talking about me," Kallen answered as the chills was gone. "It was probably another student here at the Academy. You do have a certain charm that some guy might like, and you also have a certain beauty as well," Lelouch said as he gave a sideways look at Kallen. It took everything that Kallen had to keep her face exploding red at the comment that Lelouch gave. It also took more out of her to not break her Kallen Stadtfeld mask and grab Lelouch for her to show him her appreciation for that comment. As for Lelouch, he was smiling quite largely ion the inside.

Shirley was quite mad as she hears what Lelouch offhanded said about Kallen. Shirley was upset that given that she had known Lelouch longer that Kallen and Lelouch had gave a comment like that to Kallen and never once gave her a comment about her looks. "Hey Lelouch," Rivalz said that gotten everyone's attention. "You got anything going on later? After all classes have been cancelled for the days. Hawks have been asking for a rematch," Rivalz said as he looked at Lelouch. "You are not gambling you guys," Shirley said in outburst of rage. "Come on. Don't be such a stick in the mud," Rivalz said in a carefree tune in his voice. "I am going to pass for the time being. I am going to take a break," Lelouch said as he had other things on his mind.

'Huh," Rivalz replied in confusion as he looks at Lelouch. "Why do you need the break," Maya asked as she looks at towards Lelouch. "I have some personal family business that came up and I have to take care of. I need to focus on that for the time being," Lelouch answered as he saw that Maya and Kallen had a look in their eyes at knowing the real reason. "I have been needing to ask. Why have you never talked about your family," Shirley asked as she was looking at Lelouch. "I don't want people knowing about private life and forgive me but let that subject go and forget all about it," Lelouch replied as he continued to the Student Council building to spend some time with Nunnally for the day.

The day of the meeting at Tokyo Tower or known as Britannian Victory Memorial Center

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"Britania's resounding victory over Japan opened the unenlightened nation's eyes to it's true place in today's world order. Since then, the empire and Area 11 had walked hand in hand down the road to revival," said a guide as a bunch of photos that was taken during the battle that were hanging on the wall along with other items from then as well. 'It won't be much longer,' Kallen thought as she was standing in front of one of the pictures that was behind glass. Kallen had informed Ohgi about the meeting at Tokyo Tower and he was there along with two others that were part of the Kozuki Resistance.

The two that were with Ohgi were Kento Sugiyama and Toru Yoshida. Sugiyama is a male with teal color hair with some of the hair hanging down on the side of his face and brown eyes. Yoshida is also male with dark brownish hair that he kept his gel back and turquoise color eyes. Just like Ohgi and Tamaki both Sugiyama and Yoshida were also wearing the same red headbands. "Do you think that is was Kururugi who contacted us was also this Zero person," Sugiyama asked in a quiet tone as all three of them were making sure that they did not raise some eyes with their conversation.

"Hard to say," Ohgi answered as he took a quick look at where Kallen was at. "Yeah, but he might have been arrested after his communication with Kallen that day," Yoshida said with a bit of worry that this could be a possible trap. "Then we are in danger here. We should go," Sugiyama said as he saw the logic of what Yoshida was saying. Before any of the three guys could move, a message came over the loudspeaker, "Attention please. Paging Miss Kallen Stadtfeld, Ashford Academy. One of your personal; effects has been turned in at the kiosk on the observation deck. I repeat." 'It's time,' Kallen thought with a smile as she started to walk towards said kiosk as Ohgi and the other two followed Kallen with a bit of distance to keep an eye on her.

Kallen reached the kiosk and said to the woman that was there, "I am Kallen Stadtfeld." "Hi. I believe that this is yours," the woman said as she handed a cell phone to Kallen. "Thank you so much," Kallen replied as she was handed the cell phone and walked towards the deck. Kallen looked to her left and saw that Ohgi and the others were right by the viewing window. Kallen could hear Oghi saying something about Clovis and the work he was doing in the rebuilding. Kallen knew that Oghi's stomach was turning at that crap he was saying. Kallen reached the railing, and it was then that the cell phone started to ring. Kallen saw the caller id said Zero and she answered the call by saying, "Hello."

"Hello, my dear Q-1. Please board the outbound train on loop line five, and bring your friends along," Lelouch or Zero in this case said over the cell phone as he was walking away from Toyko Tower. "We will meet you there," Kallen replied as she looked out the window before her. Kallen and Zero ender the call and Kallen looked over at Ohgi and the other. She gave a simple motion to meet up in private so she can inform them about where they were going next. Kallen was looking forward to how Lelouch will show off as Zero.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

At the Viceroy's office

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

There were four people that were in the office that the Viceroy of Area 11 to use for work. The four in the office was Jeremiah, Diethard, Villetta, and Kewell. "You handled His Highness's memorial program very well. It seems a little too weepy for my taste, but that is just my opinion," Jeremiah said as he looks at Diethard. "Yes, well the messes tend to like tear-jerker, your excellency," Diethard replied in a calm tone in his voice. "None of that excellency title. I am simply keeping the peace during these trying times. I do acknowledge the finesse you've shown. You did well in the short time you had. One could almost think that you were expecting His Highness to meet his end," Jeremiah said as he gave a look right at Diethard. "It's quite common from memorial program to be set in advance for important people," Diethard answered as this was the truth as he gave a small bow.

"I guess that means that means the royal family and certain people if given the chance," Jeremiah said. "You may be included given recent event may bumped you up the list," Diethard added as he figured that this would be good news to Jeremiah's position. "I didn't think that I was deemed important enough for it. I am only doing this to keep this mess from getting even worst then it could have been without quick action," Jeremiah replied as he realized how Lelouch was able to use the skills of this man in the Black Knights. "I figured that you should know," Diethard said as he figured that this was important news. "Have you ever thought of enlisting? The army could use a man with your skills like yours," Jeremiah asked. "I don't believe that I would be a good fit for it. Also, it is not really my cup of tea," Diethard answered. Diethard looked over at Kewell and seen that the man looked a little pale in skin color. 'I wonder what happen,' Diethard thought in curiosity.

Jeremiah had taken noticed that Diethard had barely shown any emotion during these talks. "You prefer the civil sector work I take it. I have to ask you about another matter. Given that tomorrow night Suzaku Kururugi is going to be transferred to his court-martial," Jeremiah said in a serious tone in his voice. "We should line the road with good patriotic Britannians," Diethard replied as he gave it quick thought. "I see. This will show his face to the public," Jeremiah said. "Lord Jeremiah, there are those among the Elevens who see private Kururugi as a hero. They might very well make an attempt to free him," Villetta said as she decided to being what she said as there was a chance of it happening. "I'll be there personally with my Sutherland. If anyone thinks of causing trouble, they will be executed on the spot," Kewell said. "Are you sure that you will be well enough before it," Jeremaih asked as he looks at Kewell.

"I just need to take more of the medicine that the doctor has given me and enough rest, and I will be ready," Kewell answered. "If you are sure, but I want you to know that I am still not sure that Kururugi is the killer. Given that the information that we got out Bartley, there was two people who are mostly responsible. There is proof that Suzaku was one the field. I just want you to see thing from a different point. If it comes out that the real killers are found, then there is a chance that may end up painting the Purebloods in a bad light and we would have royal family on our necks," Jeremiah said. "I understand. Will you be their sir," Kewell asked. "I have some business that needs my attention. I will have Villetta and some others with you. Since you are the one that capture Kururugi, you should be the one to be in change. I do have to warn you. If anything, bad should happened, then the responsible will fall on you. You understand me," Jeremiah asked as he looks Kewell in the eyes. "I completely understand," Kewell answered.

On the train

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Kallen and the others were on the train that Zero told them to be on. "Attention all passengers if you become aware of any suspicious items on board, please alert metro personnel by using the nearest inter-telephone," said by an announcer as Kallen was looking at the cell phone in her hand. It was then that the cell rang again, and she answered it. "What now," Kallen asked as she got the attention of Ohgi. "What do you see on your right my dear," Zero replied as Kallen did just that. "The Britannia city. It was stolen away from us and built on our sacrifice," Kallen answered as she was looking at all the nice-looking buildings and thought, 'Lelouch you smooth talker. Him calling me dear.' "On your left," Zero asked as Kallen looked to her left that showed run-down buildings. "I see our city. Remnants of the desiccated city after the Britannian sucked it dry," Kallen replied.

"Come up to the front of the train," Zero said as he ended the call. Kallen started to move towards the front with Ohgi and the others following behind her. The four had a bit of trouble getting threw some of the more crowded carts. The four had made it to a completely empty cart that had only one person that was at the other end of the cart with his back towards them. "Was it you? On the phone," Kallen asked as the others looked at the other person in the cart. The train was heading right for an upcoming tunnel as Yoshida asked, "Wow... Do you think that it's a trap?" "That was you Shinjuku right. The that help us in that battle," Kallen asked. "Hey, we're talking to you," Yoshida said with a little anger at being ignored just as the train was about to enter the tunnel.

[Music: The Eminence in Shadow OST - Nothing to Hide]

The person turned around the moment the train was in the tunnel that caused the cart to be covered in darkness. Ther four looked at the masked wearing person (Look on Chapter 1 for the appearance of Zero or Google Code Geass Zero for an image). "What do you think about my tour of the settlement," Zero asked as the four heard him clearly with the distance between them. "Your tour," Ohgi said with a bit of confusion. "Come-on, there is no way it was this joker," Yoshida said as he was not convinced that this was the same guy that help them in Shinjuku. "I wanted you to fully grasp the two. The settlement and the ghetto," Zero said as he lifted his arms out from his cape as he raised his left arm for the settlement and his right for the ghetto. "Yeah, we know. There is a difference between us and them. A very harsh one. And that's why we resist them," Ohgi said with a bit of anger in his voice at the obvious as he stepped in front of the others.

"You are wrong. Britannia will not fall to terrorism," Zero said as that caught their attention. "Fall," Oghi said in confusion. "It's a little better than a childish nuisance," Zero replied and Kallen was thinking, 'How I miss seeing you act like this my Dark King.' "What was that? Are you calling us a bunch of kids," Sugiyama asked enraged at what Zero was calling them. "You should know your enemy. It is not people, but Britannia itself. It is a war you must wage, but not on the innocent. Take up your sword and fight for justice," Zero said. "That's easy enough for anyone to say. Why should we trust you given that you are hiding behind that mask," Kallen asked as she that this would help Lelouch with the set up that he needed. "She's right! Loss that mask," Yoshida demand in anger. "Right. Are you going to show us your face or not," Ohgi asked.

"Very well, I'll show you. But rather than my face, bear witness to my power. If I can deliver to you the impossible, then I have earned your trust, correct," Zero replied back. Ohgi gave this some thought and asked, "How will you do that?" "How about saving Suzaku Kururugi from death," Zero asked back as the three men were shocked by what they heard from Zero. "Are you crazy. That is not only impossible, but suicidal," replied from Sugiyama. 'It seems like that, but with my dear Lelouch, its child's play,' Kallen thought as she knew this is going to be successful.

In a meeting room of the JLF

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

At a hidden location, there was a meeting being held by some of the members of the JLF. The room was style in the ways of Japanese with the Japan flag hanging on the wall. "He killed the Prince of Britannia. Suzaku Kururugi should be treated as a hero," an unknown voice said. There was a bunch of members of the JLF that were gather round in the center of the room. All except for one man and that man is Kyoshiro Tohdoh. Tohdoh is a male with spiky brown hair and gray color eyes. Tohdoh was sitting right in front of the Japan flag with his eyes closed. He was currently sitting in the common Japanese sitting style known as seiza with a katana blade in its scabbard in front of him on the ground. To some it looks like Tohdoh was asleep, but he was in deep thought as he was listening to the conversation happening in front of him.

"Yeah, but he's an honorary Britannian," another voice said as he was pointing out this fact. "Prime minister Kururugi was his father," a third voice stated the facts when he talked. "So what? The bastard gave up Japan, and the people don't know that about him," stated by a fourth voice. "The whole Shinjuku business was the of Kozuki's group wasn't it," asked by a fifth voice that came from a man that looked to be a high ranked member of the JLF. "Yes, sir. They're being led by a man named Ohgi at the present," answered by a sixth voice that was in front of the one who asked the question. The high ranked member took a breath before releasing and then he asked, "Has Kururugi's family said anything?" "No, sir. They broke all contract with him once he joined the military," replied by the sixth voice.

Then high ranked member looked over at Tohodh and asked, "Tohdoh, what are your thoughts?" "We should not become involved in this pubic execution," Tohdoh answered as he opened his eyes. "That's cowardly! You are Tohdoh, the miracle worker right," replied by the sixth voice that talked before. Everyone in teh room was now looking toward Tohdoh as he was still sitting. "There is a different between miracles and foolhardiness," Tohdoh replied back as he was giving everyone a bit of a knowledgeable lesson just now.

In the Britannia holding cell

"Congratulations! That person you asked me about was not on the list of casualties," Lloyd said in a joyful tone in his voice as he was in front of the cell that Suzaku was in. "That's good to hear," Suzaku replied with a sigh of relief. "Not much luck on your end though. You may be getting a trial, but no one is pulling for you certainly," Lloyd added as the tone in voice changed to one that was giving bad news as he was sitting in a small chair in front of the cell. "But the courts are where the truth comes to light," Suzaku said as there must be hope. "I expect there'll be more smoke and mirrors than anything. The truth is scarce as of late," Lloyd stated as there appears to be no hope as of now. "If that's how the world works, then so be it. I've no regret," Suzaku said with determination in his voice. The two talked for a bit more before Lloyd had to leave.

That afternoon at a junkyard

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Zero was standing in front of both Kallen and Ohgi with a bunch of broke and wreak vehicles around them. "I see. Just the two of you then," Zero asked as he was looking at the two threw his mask. "I'm sorry. We just need a little more time. If more people understood what we...," Ohgi was saying but was interrupted by Zero. "No, the two of you will do just fine with the plan that I," Zero said. "That's ridiculous! There will be too many of them," Kallen said as she was acting her part of being concerning. "With your help, clearing the task at hand with be child's play. I'll need these things by tomorrow. All that matters is the exterior," Zero replied as he pulled out a list with his left hand and held it towards Kallen and Ohgi.

Evening of the next day on the highway road of the settlement (*Scene changes will be happening*)

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

The Britannian people were crowded together on both sides of the road that was going to be used by the military that was bring Suzaku to where his court-martial was to be held at. "Any moment. Any moment now. It's a sight to see. The throng's lining the route. All of them waiting on bated breath. Waiting for the accused murderer of Prince Clovis to pass by. An honorary Britanian and a former Eleven Suzaku Kururugi," a male announcer was saying over the tv.

~Scene changes to Ashford Academy~

The members of the Student Council had gathered in the meeting room at the clubhouse. Milly was standing behind the table. Nina was sitting at her table that was in the corner of the room. Shirley was sitting in a chair. Rivalz was sitting on top of the table. Maya was sitting in a chair that was on the other side of the table from Shirley. Nunnally and Sayoko was also in the room. Nunnally was sitting in a chair that was close to Milly. Sayoko was getting drinks for everyone in the room. Even though Nina is afraid of anyone that is Eleven, she had gotten used to Sayoko after some time and was not afraid of her now. Right now, everyone's focus was on the tv that was on the wall.

~Scene changes to a TV mobile van~

Just behind the crowd of people was a TV van stationed there. "Camera 5 is a little slow. Talk to me, Charles, your team been deployed yet? What? The studio? Let them wait. Nothing has been pushed back. Everything is going according to plan. Here we go," Diethard was talking on wireless communicator as he was watching the multiple TV screens that was in front of him. "I, I can see them! They have the suspect! Suzaku Kururugi ins headed this way," the male announcer said as he saw some Sutherland frames that were escorting Suzaku. "Like clockwork," Diethard said with a little smile as he turned the communicator off for a bit. It was then that the mood of Diethard change to being bored and unsatisfied as he said, "Hun, what a circus this is. And I'm as corrupt as any of them."

~Scene changes to the Lancelot hanger~

Both Lloyd and Cecile were watching the broadcast as they worked on fixing the Lancelot frame. "This is insane. We know that Suzaku is innocent," Cecile said as she was expressing her emotions. "The court deemed our testimony inadmissible. There is nothing we can do," Lloyd said as worrying about this is pointless. "Yes, but...," Cecile started to say in a sad tone in her voice but could bring herself to finish. "Is that altruism or humanitarianism," Lloyd asked as he guess to be funny to lighten the mood. "This isn't the time for a game of semantics," Cecile replied at Lloyd at his lack of humor with the trail of Suzaku going on. "Not much else to do? We both know where this case is headed, don't we? We couldn't reach him at the summit. All we can do is cut out losses, really," Lloyd said as there was nothing else that they could do at this point.

~Scene changes to Ashford Academy~

"Voices of the scorn growing ever louder. Voices bearing testament to a people's love of the prince. Raining their judgement down on the terrorist," the male announcer said over the TV. Nunnally was doing everything that she could to bust out crying as she thinks, 'Suzaku.' Milly and Sayoko stayed close to the young girl. As for C.C., she was in her room watching on the room's tv as she was eating pizza from the huge order that she placed. She looked inside her container an found a note of a bank account under the name Cera Cereza. It did not take long for her to figure out who did this.

~Scene changes to the hideout of the Kozuki Resistance~

"Standing in place of Margrave Jeremiah is Kewell Soresi. Kewell is responsible for bring this killer to justice. Kewell will be presiding over the trail as acting consul," continued the male announcer from a tv that was set up in the hideout. Tamaki was there along with not only Sugiyama and Yoshida but along with two others. These two are Yoshitaka Minami and Naomi Inoue. Minami is a male had not only purple hair, but also purple color eyes as wore glasses. Inoue is female that had mid-length indigo color hair and grey eyes. They were wearing the red hairband along with the others in the room as they watched the tv. "No way the three of them can pull this off on their own," Tamaki said as he had no fate that Zero's plan would not work.

~Scene changes to where Ohgi was at~

Ohgi was in a Knightmare frame that is a MR1. The MR1 frame is a non-combat type frame that was only made for labor work. Given the lack of armor for combat the MR1 was able to fold itself to take less room where Ohgi was at. "He told us. He said he'd make the impossible possible. He gave us his word to save Suzaku Kururugi,' Ohgi was thinking to himself as he ready for his cue.

~Scene changes to Zero and Kallen~

Both Kallen and Lelouch were getting ready for what could be considered to be the biggest show for them to pull off. Lelouch had finished putting on his Zero's outfit and all that was left was the mask. "It's looks like you're ready," Kallen said as she finished changing her clothes. "Yes I am. Let hope that everything will happen in a similar way just like last time," Lelouch replied as he was fixing his gloves. "As long that we play our cards just right, then there will be no problem," Kallen said as she picked up Zero's mask and got ready to hand it to Lelouch. "You know when we did this last time I was sweating up a storm in both nervous and scared," Lelouch said as made sure to have the necessary items that was going to be needed.

"I was scared when I was driving as I was hoping for that vehicle that we made would not realize that it was fake," Kallen said with a chuckle as she remembers. Lelouch turned to face Kallen and was surprised at how Kallen was looking right not. Kallen was wearing the same white chauffeur just like the last time, but she was wearing a wig. The wig that Kallen was wearing was long hair that went behind her back and stopped at her waist and the color was black with a mixed of crimson red. "I have to admit that the wig you're wearing is quite something," Lelouch said as he was looking at Kallen.

"I figured that it is probably for the best to keep my red hair hidden. I am not sure if there is a lot of females that have red hair in Japan. This will keep my identity secret just like your mask," Kallen explained as she handed Lelouch his mask. "That is a good idea. You look stunning in my option," Lelouch replied as he accepted the mask from Kallen. "It's show time, Q-1," Zero said once the mask was on. Soon the two got into the vehicle and headed off to where the escort was heading towards.

~Scene changes to the escort route~

"Come in Kewell," an officer called in over the communicator. "What is it," Kewell answered back as he was standing in an open cockpit of his Sutherland. "Vehicle is approaching the main highway from third. We just let it through as you instructed but...," the officer replied back but was unable to finished from some reason. "Do you believe the target could be a terrorist's vehicle," Kewell asked as he was prepared for this with pilots and their frames at the ready. "Well Sir, it's Prince Clovis' car," the officer answered. "The prince's car? Well looks like we have some foolish comedian coming. Don't worry about it and just let they through," Kewell replied. Kewell raised his right arm and ordered, "All forces hold here!" The escort group soon stopped in their position. This got the attention of not only of those that were there, but also those that were watching.

~Scene changes Kozuki Resistance hideout~

"Hey, they stopped. They really did," Sugiyama said as this looks like good news of the sort "Huh! It's just a coincidence," Tamaki replied as he was not believing that Zero's plan of how it would go was just a bluff. "Yeah, but he said that whichever Purist Faction member that was in charge would try to make it seem like they are the heroes and try to gain some limelight by making some sort of stand with it," Yoshida said as this was the point that Tamaki could not understand by this point. "CONINCIDENCE," Tamaki yelled out still of his believeth.

~Scene changes to the escort~

"This is not scheduled stop. Could there have been some sort of accident," the male announcer said as the camera was focused on the stopped escort. "This is site 5. There is a vehicle approaching them," said by another male announcer. Kewell smirked as he thought, 'Come into my trap you terrorist.' "It's, it's Prince Clovis' personal transport! And it's heading straight for the cavalcade," reported by the first male announcer as the camera showed a white car with a box top design with the Britannian flag on front of the box.

~Scene changes to where Ohig is~

Ohgi was watching the broadcast on a small tablet device that was taped to the side of the cockpit he was in. "What a... He's coming straight at them. What is he planning," Ohgi asked himself as he was unable to communicate to Zero at this moment.

~Scene changes to Clovis car~

As the car was heading down the highway to the escort group, Kallen was driving the car. 'Let's hope that these numbskulls fall for this,' Kallen thought as the car she was driving was nothing more than a bunch of junk that was put together and held by very strong tape. Soon the car stopped a distance away from the escort group. "You dare desecrate His Highness's transport? Come out of there," Kewell said over the loudspeaker of his Sutherland with his handgun at the ready. Then the bottom of the Britannina flay was set on fire and quickly burn the flag as the ashes were blown into the wind. With the flag being gone in just a few seconds, it had been revealed that there was someone behind the flag.

Everyone that was watching seen a masked individual that was wearing what look to be a cape that gave him the appearance of a vampire at first glance. "I am Zero," Zero said threw some unknown loudspeaker to make sure that everyone heard what his name is. "Zero," Villetta asked as she sat in the cockpit of her Sutherland.

~Scene changes to Ashford Academy~

"Who is this person? This man calling himself Zero, standing before a full military convoy," said the male announcer over the tv as the image was showing Zero from his feet to his head. "What is all this," Rivalz asked as everyone in the room was glues to the tv. 'How are you going to pull this off Lelouch or should I say Zero,' Maya thought as she watched. 'Show them what you can do Lelouch,' Milly thought as she took a seat. Sayoko moved closer to Nunnally and place her left hand on Nunnally's right shoulder.

~Scene changes to the Kozuki Resistance hideout~

All five of them were watching the tv very closely and were hope that both Kallen and Ohgi would make it out alive. "What the hell does he think he is doing," Tamaki asked as no one could give him an answer.

~Scene changes to the TV mobile van~

All the monitors were now showing nothing but Zero from different angles. "Who is this man calling himself Zero," the male announcer asked the question that was on everyone's mind at this point. "Zero? What do you mean, like 'nothing'," Diethard asked as this piqued his interest as he watched the screens.

~Scene changes to the JLF HQ~

Members of the JLF were all gather around the tv as they were also watching what was happening. Tohdoh was being the group as his back was on a column with his katana in his hand as he made it looks like a crane from a distance.

~Scene changes to Zero's location~

"Are we gazing on a terrorist? Certainly not the wisest if sure is the case," the male announcer said over the tv. 'Is he an Eleven,' Suzaku thought as he looked at Zero. 'Before this was to return the favor, but not this time,' Zero thought as the image of his father flashed in his mind. "I have seen enough Zero," Kewell said as he shot his gun into the air. This signaled the four Transport VTOL and deployed four Sutherland frames that surrounded the car that Zero was on top of. "Now, why don't you lose that mask," Kewell said in an arrogant tone in his voice. Zero moved his right hand to his mask and then raised it in the air. Then Zero snapped his fingers and the box that was behind him broke apart.

The box cover gone had revealed the canister that was supposed to be poison gas. "Kewell, be careful, that's the poison gas," Villetta said in a nervous tone from her Sutherland. 'All of you were never told the truth about what this was, and I am going to use it to my advantaged and the one person that knows the truth on your side won't be able to say anything if he even knew the truth of what it really was," Zero thought. "Wait. You don't understand," Suzaku was starting to say before the shock collar around his neck shocked him.

'Can all of you watching at home see this? It's some sort of device, although its purpose is unclear. Stay with us and we'll see if this so-called terrorist has anything to say," the male announcer said when the canister was revealed on tv. This was causing mass confusion among the crowd that was attending. "This bastard! He's taken everyone her hostage without them even knowing it," Kewell said quietly in a fit of rage. Then Kewell pointed his gun right at. "You intend to shoot? I think you know full well what will happened if you miss," Zero said as this situation was almost like a chess match being played.

~Scene changes to the TV mobile van~

Diethard was watching the screen very closely. "Unit 6 bring up the sound and get that camera right in his face," Diethard said over the communicator. "Sir, it's too "hairy" out here," the staff member replied back as he was too scared to do what Diethard said. "Damn, amateurs," Diethard said as he turned to the door and headed for it. He grabbed a TV video camera that was next to the door. Diethard figured that he was going to have to do it himself.

~Scene changes to Zero's location~

"Fine, what are your demands," Kewell asked as he lower the gun. "I proposed an exchanged of the sort. This canister for Kururugi," Zero answered. "Like hell I will agree to that. He is charged with high treason for murdering a prince. I won't be handing him over," Kewell replied in anger at the demand that Zero said. "No. You're mistaken Kewell," Zero said as the gun from the four Sutherland's were all pointed at him. Diethard had just arrived by a Sutherland's foot and got the camera started. Diethard got the camera pointed at Zero and zoomed in on Zero's head. "The man who killed Clovis was myself," Zero said as he looked directly into the camera that Diethard was using. The moment that Zero said this, it had sent grasp threw-out not to the crowd, but those that were watching on TV. As Diethard was watching this, he started to smile at what was happening for some reason.

~Scene changes to Lancelot hanger~

"Unbelievable," Cecile said in shock. "The real culprit had revealed himself," Lloyd said as he was watching the broadcast on the tablet device that Cecile was holding.

~Scene changes to the JLF hideout~

All the members were all taken back by this Zero character and what he done. Tohdoh was taken back by this, and he was no longer leaning and was standing straight up as he watch what was happening on the tv.

~Scene changes to Ashford Academy~

"What? What does this mean? This masked man called Zero - no, we can't be sure who he is - but in any case, he claims to be the real assassin? So where does this leave the current suspect, Private Kururugi," the male announcer said in shocked over the tv. Everyone was shocked by the news that was given. Well, except for three people.

~Scene changes to Ohgi's location~

"Ah! Crap! There is no way out of this," Ohgi said out loud as he became even more nervous.

~Scene changes to Zero's location~

Kallen was only a little nervous, but she had fate that Zero would make sure that they make it out alive. "For a single Eleven, you'll save scores of precious Britanninas. I find that to be a bargain," Zero replied as he had no problem with labeling Suzaku with the title Eleven and not Japanese. 'This is all one big performance to him,' Diethard thought as his focus with the camera was on Zero and he had a bigger smile then before as he was enjoying every second of what was happening. "He is mad. Disguising this car as His Highness'! He'll pay the price for this mocking," Kewell said in anger as all the armed Sutherlands readied their guns. "I would be careful if I was you. I can make sure that Revolt goes public," Zero said as this caused a bit of confusion with the soldiers. Zero tapped the roof of the car twice with his right heel. With this signal, Kallen moved the car closer to Kewell.

"If I die, it will all go public. Just to let you know that Revolt was something that Clovis was doing. If I release that information, it will be a horrible outcome for all of you," Zero said as he kept what the distance was at this moment. "What are you talking about," Kewell replied as he was lost on what was being said. A part of Zero's helmet opened right at where the left eye was at. Lelouch used his Geass and said, "You will agree to my demands and make sure that the three of us leave safely." "Understood. Released the prisoner," Kewell replied as he was under the effect of Geass. "What on earth are you doing, Kewell," Villetta asked as she was shocked by how Kewell was acting. "Just do as I say," Kewell answered in anger.

The two soldiers were lost on what to do. "Hand him over and nobody gets in his way," Kewell order and as pilot came over. "What are you thinking," the pilot asked as he looked at Kewell. "This is an order," Kewell answered back. "It's hard to tell what's happening from here, but it seems that Kururugi's release has been broken," the male announcer said as he was informing those that were watching on tv. Suzaku was walking towards Zero. Zero along with Kallen in her disguise was walking side by side as they headed towards Suzaku as well. "So, who the hell are you," Suzaku asked before being shocked once again. "As I thought, they didn't allow you to speak," Zero said as he know that this would happen.

~Scene changes to Ohgi's location~

Ohgi had pulled a lever by the controls. The lever that was pulled caused the MR1 to activate and taken a form a Knightmare frame

~Scene changes to Zero's location~

"If they get away, we'll lose everything," Villetta said as she begins to pilot her Sutherland. "It's time to go, Zero," Kallen said as she looked at her wristwatch. "Thank you, Q-1," Zero said to Kallen. Zero pulled out a handheld device that had a button on top of it. "Well then, 'till next time," Zero said as he pushed the button. Theis caused the canister shake as begun to release a cloud of red smoke into the area. The moment that the crowd saw the smoke, they begun to panic and run away to get away as far as possible. "You cowardly Eleven, What is wrong with you Kewell," Velletta said as she was about to attack Zero and the others, but was stopped by Kewell attacking her. "I order all of you to stand down now," Kewell demanded from inside his Sutherland as he was still under the effect of Geass.

[Music: Code Geass OST: Zero or 0]

Zero had pushed Suzaku over the side of the bridge as he grab Kallen in a bride style like fashion as they went over the side of the bridge as well. It was then that Oghi in the MR1 frame launch it's slash harken right below the three falling. The slash harkens hit the wall and it was revealed that a tarp of some kink was setup, the three landed on the tarp and safely dropped in an open compartment of a cart that was a part of a train. "It work. Now we can...," Ohig was saying as he was fired upon by a Sutherland. The MR1 cockpit had eject just in time before the frame was destroyed. The train that the three had landed in took off with no warning of any kind. "I gave you a direct order to standdown," Kewell said as he had his Sutherland point a gun at the soldier that fired at the MR1 frame. Because of how Kewell was acting, this had allowed the three to escape with no problem.

At a rundown theater building in Shinjuku

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Ohgi was meeting up with the others in the lobby of building that was not in use. Zero had made sure that Suzaku did not see any of their faces. "Man, I didn't really think that he could do it," said a member of the resistance as he was impressed by what he saw. "Yeah, who is this guy," asked by another member. "That's crap! How many timed can a bluff like that work, anyway," Tamaki asked. "You gotta give the guy some credit though," Ohgi said that got everyone's attention. "Gotta admit it that nobody else could've pulled that off. Not the Japanese Liberation Front, certainly not me. We've always thought that a full-on war with Britannian wasn't a possibility at all. But it may be possible with him," Ohgi said as he started to believe with what he just said.

~Scene changed to the theater~

Zero help Suzaku get the shock collar off so the two could talk. Kallen was in the room but was behind a column. "Looks like that they treated you roughly. Now you know what Britannian are really like, Private Kururugi. Britannian is rotten to the core. If you wish to bring change to this world, then join me," Zero asked as he thinking on the inside, 'I know how this is going to go, but I am giving you this once chance to prove me wrong.' "It is true that you killed Prince Clovis," Suzaku asked in anger as he looks at Zero. "This is war. Why not go after the enemy commander," Zero replied back. "And the gas? There were civilians out there," Suzaku asked. "That was just a smoke screen that result in no deaths. If you are worried about the poison gas that was stolen, then don't worry. I got rid of it and no one will ever see it ever again," Zero answered.

"The results? That's all that matters to you," Suzaku replied. "The Britannia you serve is a worthless dominion," Zero said as he is trying to get this hardhead to see reason. "That may be true, but I believe that this nation can be changed for the better and it can be done from within," Suzaku replied as he is firmed on his believeth. "Changed," Zero replied. "Any ends gained through contemptible means aren't worth anything," Suzaku said as he begins to head for the exit. "Where are you going," Zero asked as he seen Suzaku walking away. "To my court-martial. It begins in an hour," Suzaku answered as he stopped in mid step. "The only reason that they're giving you a trial is to find you guilty," Zero replied. "Rules are rules. If I don't go, they'll start cracking down on the Elevens and honorary Britannias," Suzaku said as Kallen was grit her teeth and made a fist. 'How dare this bastard call the Japanese that label the Britannian slap us with,' Kallen thought in anger.

"You'll die," Zero said. "I don't mind," Suzaku replied without a care. "Your just an idiot," Zero said. "An old friend of mine always used to tell me that. He'd say I was a fool. It's my weakness, I guess. I'd try to bring you in, but you'd just end up killing me. And if I'm going to die, it'll be in service of the people. Even so, I thanjk you... for saving me," Suzaku replied back as he left threw the door to the outside. Kallen came out from behind the column and wrapped her arms around Zero from behind. "I gave that fool one chance and he blew it," Zero said in a soft tone. Kallen would not say it out loud, but she did not agree that Suzaku did not deserve that second chance but knew that Lelouch had to do it.

"You know that night that when we went to bust Tohdoh out of prison. I was planning to let Lelouch Lamperouge to simple disappear," Zero said as he turned around to face Kallen. "What was your plan," Kallen asked as she felt Zero's arms around her. "I was going to have Suzaku be there for Nunnally as a sort of Knight for her in my place as I would put my focus on being Zero, but that was out the window when we discovered that he was the pilot of the Lancelot," Zero answer as he closed his eyes behind the mask. "I believe that you will find a way to balance of being both Lelouch and Zero," Kallen replied as she closed her eyes. The two stayed liek that for a few minutes before they separated and left to meet up with Ohgi and the others.

"Yes, apparently, Private Kururugi has made contract with the authorities. It would seem that Zero had released him. However now that the original changes against him have been thrown into question, it's very possible Kururugi would be found innocent and acquitted," said a male announcer as he was giving an update to those that were watching on the TV. "Thank goodness," Nunnally said in her room as she was watching on a tablet in her bed. Milly had informed everyone that it was time for bed after Zero saved Suzaku. Everyone was getting sleepy and need their rest for the next day.

After all no one except for those that knew what would be coming next.

Omake Story: There are worst things then death (This was to be put at the end of chapter 10)

In the G-1 base in Shinjuku. Lelouch had shot Clovis with a special kind of bullet that did not kill him. The bullet had a little vial in the center of it and there was a needle at end of it. "What did you shot him with," C.C. asked as she looked at the bullet that she took off Clovis. " These are some special bullets that I have gotten from Kitsune. If I remember right about what he said about there, if a man is shot with one of those he is out for 12 hours when he wakes up, he dies not know who he is, where his is, and his head is splitting like firewood," Lelouch answer as he sent a text threw his phone. "What are you going to do with him," C.C. asked as she looks at Clovis knock out body. "With what I have in plan, he is going to wish that he was killed," Lelouch replied with an evil smile.

Clovis was starting to wake up and he had a hard time focusing. It took quite a bit of time, but Clovis was shocked when he came to his senses. Clovis was strapped to a chair and seen that there was a bunch of empty chairs around him. There was also a huge tv in front of him. He saw that there was a robot that was staying by the wall on his left. "Good day Prince Clovis. I know that you have question about where you are and why I am doing this to you. The answered to where you are will do you no good. As for why, this is your punishment for how you treated the Japanese people. Don't worry you won't be alone in this punishment," said a voice and then the Tv turned on. The thing that Clovis saw was an adult human size purple dinosaur with a green under belly. The dinosaur began to sing. It would be about ten minutes before Clovis started to scream and beg for it to stop.

"With the robot in the room with him, any care that he needs along with food being fed to him will make sure that he will stay alive," Zero said as he was explaining to the Kallen and other Resistance fighter about the torture that Clovis was going through right now. Some of them began to think it would probably be a mercy just to shoot him but then realized that this was sweet revenge. Zero was going to send a few recordings to those in Britannian that Clovis was alive but what he was going threw at the moment. Zero would have some demands but he wants to take his time with this.
