A/N: I have a good feeling about actually managing to continue this...
...
He watched on from his seat, staring at one of the large HD screens showcasing one of the testing 'rooms.' Both were currently empty, though he could still make out the rather impressive field.
He had to hand it to UA, they certainly knew how to host an entrance test. A test, he thankfully, didn't need to do. Not that he was worried about not making the cut. That idea was honestly laughable. No, he simply thought it all a waste of time. As did the principle. He'd been given a direct route in thanks to his recommended status.
He had yet to meet any of the other recommended students, no doubt still doing their written exams. He'd simply finished his rather early.
He hadn't even used his quirk, the test was simply laughable. He'd probably get more of a challenge out of one of his siblings. Honestly, the only reason he was here was because his father had wanted to try something different for hisupbringing compared to his current heir. Though how he intended to test them in the end still eluded him. At the very least, everyone in the family received a chance to earn the position. It was oddly... Fair of his father. An odd word to use.
At the very least, no one here knew of his noble status. Something that was only possible thanks to one of his, somewhat recent, homeland's laws. A law that had appeared following his uncle's failed murder attempt of his mother.
The thought, even a decade later, still brought about anger, however, at the same time it had been the first time he'd seen a different side to his father, a side that almost gave him hope! It had been the first time he'd understood why his dear mother had fallen for the man.
His uncle was certainly no longer around to threaten his family's safety. And, he himself, would never forget the look of fury he'd seen on his father's face when he'd caught sight of his younger sisters condition. Though the fury wasn't out of love but that, by his own brother's hand, one of the Emperor's daughters had been harmed.
His musings were cut short as he heard the unmistakable sound of the door been opened. He turned his gaze to the newcomer, somewhat curious. Though they hadn't finished as quickly as he had, they'd definitely did a good enough job. The girl, he noticed rather quickly, wore a sundress, knee-high boots and had her long hair held in a ponytail...
She oddly, for some strange reason, reminded him of a close friend. Not that he'd ever tell him.
The girl's eyebrows rose as she caught sight of him. "Ha..? beat me to it I see?" She chuckled good naturally, her surprise long gone as she walked towards him, a somewhat interested look in her face as she held a hand out. "Momo Yaoyorozu, nice to meet ya!" She grinned at him.
He stared at the hand in front of him for a moment, before looking back up, a smile on his own face as he reached a hand out.
"Lelouch Lamparouge."
...
...
"Aren't you coming?" Momo Yaoyorozu questioned the foreign exchange student. She'd been surprised to learn he was one, from Britain no less! Very little news regarding the country came out, evidently it preferred to keep it to itself. Still, he refused to budge, they'd been explicitly told to all head to another room once everyone had shown up from the written practical. She hadn't noticed Lelouch leaving the written practical first as he'd been seated behind her.
"No, I won't be participating in the practical I am afraid," He answered, the smile on his face present, though it failed to prevent the frown from entering her face. Her eyes widened briefly as she felt the sudden temperature drop in the room.
"Why not?" The, up until now, quiet stranger suddenly questioned as his eyes narrowed at the lackadaisical foreigner.
Lelouch turned towards him, an amused look in his eyes. "Finally decided to respond?" He chuckled causing the other to narrow his eyes further.
Before anyone could say anything further, she could see the others eye Lelouch warily, said student spoke up again.
"Because, I'd win." He shrugged as he turned back to stare out into the empty field, his eyes moving as if he could see something the others could not.
Their upcoming examiners appearance stilled any arguments from erupting, though he failed to quell the interest hanging in the air, and in the duel-hair-coloured student's case, anger as he confirmed the fact Lelouch wouldn't be participating.
Momo couldn't help wondering what kind of quirk could cause such a reaction... As she watched Lelouch tilt his head the slightest at one of the, still empty, regular test sites, she had a feeling she didn't want to find out...
...
Maybe using his quirk to make sure he wasn't late to his first lesson was a bad idea but he wanted to leave a good first impression. Besides, he knew Nunnally would've encouraged it. Plus she'd never tell his parents on him.
Lelouch calmly walked into the frozen classroom, the tell tale sign of Nunnally's quirk showing through his left eye, though unlike quite a few of his family, he was capable of activating two, his own and his sister's, quirks at the same time. Causing something his sister thought looked like a red crane of all things to appear in his left eye. He could never really see it himself. As far as he was concerned, it was a demonic symbol. Particular C.C's.
He wasn't sure how he felt about the pizza demon's decision to stay back in the capital. He understood why his sister couldn't make the trip, considering her schooling was yet to finish. But C.C practically did nothing with her time.
He ignored his class as he quickly walked in, holding his breath was rather uncomfortable. He was no where near his sister's level. But alas, that was likely to never change. Hive-mind or as his father seemed fond of calling it, the Geass Order could only do so much after all, no matter how much practice one had.
Though everyone in his family carried it. Well, everyone with a blood relation to his father at any case.
As soon as he found the right seat, the one that would get him the least trouble out of his quirk usage. They seemed rather strict compared to his homeland. He quickly took a seat and turned off both quirks. Taking a large breath of air, a sigh of relief escaping him as time resume-
"Don't put your legs on the table! Don't you think that's disrespectful towards your classmates!?"
He blinked as everyone around him unfroze, evidently he hadn't needed to go through all of that. He had wondered why no one seemed to notice his appearing out of nowhere...
"No, as a matter of fact, I don't think so. Which middle school are you from anyway, you two-bit extra!?"
He idly wondered if this was all worth the crown.
...
"Hello again, I was wondering if you'd be here," The familiar voice remarked beside him, quickly gaining his attention.
Lelouch turned towards the girl he'd met earlier, no longer interested in the squabble happening before him. "Is there a reason I wouldn't be here?"
"Did you know the number one recommended student decided to go to another school?" Momo questioned, an amused look in her eyes.
Lelouch smiled without skipping a beat. "Really now? I don't remember withdrawing my application," He hummed. "Perhaps my butler did it without permission."
Momo raised an eyebrow at the word, covering a snort. "You have a butler?"
Lelouch nodded solemnly at the question, "Yes, his name's Jeremiah Gottwald, wonderful hero, even better butler if I do say so myself." He barely held a snort in though he meant no offence. His family really did owe the man for making it to his mother on time.
He failed to notice the look of surprise gracing Yaoyorozu's face, his and the rest of the class's attention taken by a man entering the classroom... In a sleeping bag?
Lelouch blinked at the sight, what kind of school was this?
"Put these on and make your way outside! We don't have all day," The stranger exclaimed as he raised what Lelouch presumed was a gym uniform.
Another test..?
Also... Did the principals warning in using his quirks apply here..? He was certainly about to find out.
