Code Geass: Kallen's secret

This is the beginning of a new story, with a new threat, but with the same characters. Kallen has a secret, would you like to hear it?

Chapter 0: Prologue

August 10th Year 2000 A.T.B (Ascension to Throne Britannia): I found a year old baby nearby an apparently recently burned down mansion, there was no signs of it's parents. It was sickly looking so I decided to take it with me.

August 26th Year 2000 A.T.B: This baby is very strange and is unlike others, his intellect is comparable to that of a genius. He has already started talking fluently somewhat. After asking him if he had a name, he replied, "no name".

September 13th Year 2000 A.T.B: I finally thought of a name for the boy, I told him his name shall be Rai, and he nodded in acceptance. I asked him to say it for me, his response was perfectly clear, "Rai".

September 30th Year 2000 A.T.B: I think that I should take him to a family, this lifestyle isn't the kind a little one should have. I have a family I can take him to, but I wont tell him right away.

October 13th Year 2000 A.T.B: This family, half Britannian nobles, half Japanese commoners. They should treat him well, and I will miss you Rai, "I decided to give you something else, it's a contract" I said. "Con… tract?" Rai echoed. "Yes, it will bestow you with the power of kings, In return though, you will grant my greatest wish in the future, and you will live a full life until we meet again, do you accept?". "I… accept" Rai echoed again. Then I sent him to the door and as he rang the doorbell, he turned to me and said "Miss, do you have a name?". Then I started towards the darkness, and said "C.C, it's C.C".

Chapter 1: Ashford Academy

Sometime later at the Ashford Academy student council balcony…

"W-where am I?" "A-am I dead" "No, I'm not dead, but why does my head hurt" cough cough Ughhhh.

"Oh my god, are you all right, he's bleeding at his head, Madame President, get help, get hel"… I blacked out because of the pain.

"Now am I dead?" "Arghh, its too bright, where am I?" "Heaven?" I murmured. "Hey, he's waking up, Milly, Nunnally, he's waking up" said a girl. "An angel?" I murmured again as I looked up at a mysterious red headed girl. "No not quite, my name is Shirley, but who are you?" Shirley said with a warm presence, "I found you on the balcony bleeding at your forehead, then Milly and I rushed you to the Infirmary".

"M-my name is Rai" I said. "No last name?" the blonde hair girl said. "No I don't have one" "Don't have one? Who doesn't have a last name?" "Me I gue… no wait, I guess my last name is Kouzuki or Statfeld, call me by either or, I don't care". "!!" was the reaction of all three girls.

"Say that again?" Shirley said, "My last name can be Kouzuki or Statfeld, why?" I said wondering why they were surprised. "We have a friend by those last names" "Huh, who could possibly have those names?" "We could introduce you to her tomorrow, you seem very nice, maybe Onii-sama (brother) would like to meet you too" said the third girl in the wheelchair.

"Oh it's getting late, but we haven't exactly introduced ourselves" "I'm Shirley Fenette, I'm on the swim club and I'm in the student council, this blonde is Milly Ashford, the president of the student council and granddaughter of the principal of this school, and this is Nunnally Lamperouge, she's in middle school here and we treat her as an honorary member of the student council" Shirley said. "Alright time to go to bed Rai" "Shirley, I don't remember you being my parent" "Yea but you must've forgot, you have injuries, you have to get your rest" "Fair enough, goodnight" I chirped out as Shirley pulled covers over me. "They are strangely nice and I've only known them for 10 minutes, maybe I should stay here for a while, this person with the same last names as me is of interest, and also… I cant move".

"Ahhhhhhhhhh" I yawned, as my eyes slowly blinked open I saw Shirley sitting in a chair sleeping. "She slept here all night? Why?" I stumbled out of bed quietly and went to the infirmary's balcony and embraced the morning sun, my cold body felt good from the warmth the sun had.

"Is this how it always is here? It's so peaceful" I tiptoed towards Shirley, and started poking her, "Wake up Shirley" "Huh, oh good morning Rai" Shirley yawned out still half asleep "You slept here all night, why?" "Because you looked lonely sleeping there all by yourself, so I thought I would keep you company" "Did I do something?" "What do you mean?" "You have been extremely nice to me even though I just got here, you haven't questioned me or anything" "Would you rather have me be mean?" "No, I was just wondering" "Ok then, so how'd you sleep?" "Good, waking up to the warmth of the sun felt good" "Rai, do you go to school?" "I did up until recently" "Um , where do you live then?" "I haven't lived anywhere in 3 years, I got separated from my family" Her face then lit up "Would you like to live here?" She then rushed out the door not even letting me finish my answer.

"There your wounds are healed and you look as good as new" the nurse told me, "You know, you aren't even a student, after you are fully cleared as healed we cant exactly let you stay here" "Don't worry about that, thanks to my new friend, I might enroll here" "Oh that's sounds good, so who is this new friend?" "Shirley Fenette" "Oh she is such a sweet girl" "I can see that"

Later that day…

"Shirley, Shirley, what's the rush?" "Enrollment, you said you wanted to join Ashford right?" "Ok, ok, but tell me, where will I live?" "You could live with me, I have a double dorm with no roommates or they will give you your own room, your pick" "I think I'll get a room but stay with you for a few days, is that ok?" "Yes it is, your always welcome Rai" We arrived at the principal's office and she introduced me to the very kind principal, and after about a couple of hours, I became a student.

"Your room number is 1013" the principal said "Oh that's next to Lulu's room!" Shirley called out. "Lulu? Who's Lulu?" "Oh you've got to meet him, thanks principal Ashford" Then Shirley dragged me out and we speeded to meet this Lulu, much to Shirley's delight.

"Lulu!, Lulu!!, LULU!!, open up" Shirley screamed out as she banged on his door, "Calm down, what is it Shirley" Lulu said as he popped out from his room. "I've got someone for you to meet, his name is Rai" "Oh so you're the mysterious Rai that Nunnally has been talking about, nice to meet you" "Nice to meet you too, oh by the way Shirley, who is this person with the same last name as me, you know Kouzuki and Statfeld?" "You mean Kallen, Kallen Kouzuki?" Lelouch blurted out "!!" I suddenly grew very quiet "What's wrong Rai, Rai, hello?" Shirley said as she waved her hand across my blank face. "K-Kallen, You said Kallen Kouzuki right?" "Yes, why?" Lelouch answered. "W-Where is she? WHERE IS SHE!?" no longer noticing that I was shouting. "She is in her dorm room, number 1126". Before I knew it I was dashing down the hall to the other side of the building.

"1118, 1120, here, 1126" knock knock "Hello, do you need something?" a tall skinny black haired girl said as she popped out from behind her door. "I-Is Kallen here?" "No, she is at her 1st period history classroom picking something up" "What room is that?" "It's right next to the lunchroom, cant miss it" Then I bolted again, just barely hearing Shirley say "WAIT UP RAI, WHAT'S THE RUSH!"

"I've got to find her, I've got to find you Kallen" I found myself running faster than normal. "Room 990, oh hello, Kallen was just here right?" I blurted out. "Yes, you just missed her" The teacher said. I left and went towards Kallen's room and there I saw her, walking down the hall with her friends. "Kallen, Kallen" I shouted while trying to catch my breath and running. She turned just as I hugged her tightly. "Kallen, Kallen, I missed you so much" I didn't notice I was crying "It's me, UGH" She punched me in the stomach. "Who are you?! Why do you know my name?" Kallen yelled. I was on the floor trying to breath. "Kallen, you didn't notice, it's me Rai" "!!" She knelt down and hugged me while I was gasping for air, "You got so much stronger Kallen, I missed you, cough cough but next time pull your punches" I was still crying, but so was she. "I haven't seen you in 3 years and I've been searching for you forever " Kallen said softly, "but you turn up as a student in my school" "I just joined today thanks to my new friend" I said. "RAI, RAI, CAN YOU TELL ME WHATS THE RU…" Shirley said as she and Lelouch caught up with me.

"I can't believe Kallen is here, I missed her so much, it's been 3 years" I walked up to the student council house, where I was told by Kallen to go at 3:00, for a surprise.

An hour earlier…

"Guys, think about it, he's perfect student council material" Kallen proposed to the rest of the student council members. "I don't know, Shirley did after all find him mysteriously on the balcony, he could be dangerous" Lelouch said. "He's not dangerous, Rai is technically my brother, and I love him so much, and he's gentle, the only reason he screamed at you was because he couldn't believe I was here" "Yea, he was very polite when I tucked him in, and ki…, and nothing, I did nothing" Shirley said embarrassed "Oh Shirley, you kissed him goodnight while he was sleeping didn't you?" Milly said teasing Shirley. "N-No I didn't, I didn't" Shirley said with a panicky tone. "Yes you did Shirley, that's why your face is so red" Lelouch said laughing "I take back what I said, Shirley's boyfriend should be in the student council" "Do I hear wedding bells" Milly teased. "Madame President, what are you saying?" "Hahaha" everyone laughed.

3:00 at the student council house…

I walked up to the student council house and opened the doors and… "SURPRISE" everyone yelled "We thought about it, and we want you to be in the student council Rai" Kallen said. "Alright, sounds fun" I said, "Well then, this is your welcoming party, enjoy" Shirley said with such a pretty smile. "I'm glad I'm here, this life is better than the one I've had for a while, and this is only the first few days" "Hey I've got sparkling cider" said a blue haired boy, that I hadn't met yet. "Um excuse me, Kallen, could you introduce me?" "I don't know everyone" I whispered. "Oh right, everyone, I want to properly introduce you all to Rai, even if you already know him, I'll introduce you anyway" Kallen said "All right, this is Shirley Fenette, you've met her publicly, and privately" "WHAT" Shirley said trying to keep Kallen quiet. "Never mind, you met Milly Ashford, Rivalz Cardemonde is the blue haired guy over there, Suzaku Kururugi, he's in the military and he's one heck of a fighter in the gym, and this is Lelouch Lamperouge and Nunnally Lamperouge, they're a very great pair of siblings and good friends, and then you have me, Kallen" "Thank you, hello everyone, officially this time, nice to meet you all" I said.

"All right, enough talking, let's eat" Milly said "Huh, there's no food here?" I said confused. "We're going out to eat, it was Kallen's idea, because she knows all the foods you like, she picked your favorite restaurant, Friday Fever" "Thank you, very much Kallen" I said. "Well, what are we waiting for, let's go" Suzaku said anxiously.

"Such good food! I haven't had food this good in a long time!" "Hey calm down, everyone is staring at you" "Rai? Rai, what's wrong, your eating as if you haven't eaten in days" Milly said as I was scarfing down food. "I haven't" "It just tastes so good, I haven't eaten wings here in a long time" I said. "Rai, you have sauce all over your face, here let me get it" Shirley said as she got a napkin and wiped my face. I didn't object neither did I mind, I actually liked it, I just sat there and went on eating my wings, secretly smiling. "She's very nice and caring, although that was a little weird" Everyone was now looking at Shirley, as if she did something wrong. "What?" Shirley yelled "Nothing, Shirley, you know Lelouch, you have sauce on your face, should I wipe it too?". "Hahahahaha" everyone laughed while Shirley's face turned red. I even laughed a little too.

"Do I smell pizza?". We walked into Lelouch's room after we got back from dinner. "Wow, this is much bigger than the dorm rooms" I said as I sat down on the couch. "This is the guest house, Nunnally and I live here permanently" "Lucky, my room is a lot smaller than yours" I grumbled. "Heh, it's not all that great, if I skip school, the teachers know exactly where to go" Lelouch joked around. "You shouldn't skip scho…" Shirley stopped, and as I looked around, so did everyone else. "Hellooooooo" I said as I waved my hands in front of the others faces. "My Geass? It activated!?" "Why here? Why now?". I looked in the mirror, my eyes were glowing purple with a red sigil, shaped liked a bird, like they always do when I use my Geass. "I knew you were here, its been a long time Rai" A girl said as she walked out from the shadows. "!!, C.C, its you, its really you, I haven't seen you in forever" I said happy and surprised at the same time. "If your wondering why your Geass activated, its because I needed you to stop time so we could talk, so I activated it". "Why would you need to stop time?" I asked. "We cant be seen together, not just yet, I don't want Lelouch bothering me about you until he is more friendly with you, ok?" C.C said. "All right, can I visit you every once in a while, by stopping time?" I asked. "Yes you can but only come to me when I activate your Geass" she told me. "I've missed you, how did you get here, why Lelouch?" I said. "I don't want to explain that now, there is only one more thing I want to ask, then we must say goodbye for now" "Show me what new powers you have, I know your Geass has developed more than one power, come in here, show me how strong you've become" She said.

"Alrighty, I think it's time to go to our rooms, its getting late" Shirley said as she headed towards the door. Slowly we followed her to the door, Kallen was half asleep, I was trying to walk her to the door, and the rest of the student council followed. "That was fun, we should do this more often" Suzaku said as he yawned. It must have been 12:00-1:00 when we left.

I took Kallen to her room because she could hardly walk because she wasn't awake, then I saw Shirley standing by my room on my way back. "Shirley, what are you doing here?" I asked. "I wanted to ask you something Rai, its important" Shirley said.

"What is it?" I asked "Well, um, w-would you g-go out with me, on a date?" Shirley stuttered. "A date? With me?" My eyes were now fully open, "Ok, when and where?" "Pick me up at my room at 7:00, and we can go to this restaurant I picked out" she said. She walked away and I didn't notice but she was blushing.

The next day…

"Hey Rai, I here you have a date with Shirley" Suzaku said as we were headed towards class. "It's just a date, it's not important" I said. "Well then why were both you and Shirley blushing huh?" he teased. "Well um… ok so it's important" I admitted. "Wait, how would you know that?" I said. "I was going to ask you a question when I saw you and Shirley talking" he said. "So you listened in on our conversation… don't do that" I said with an angry tone. "Ok, ok, anyway about that question I was going to ask you" he said. "It was that I would like you to come with me to meet Lloyd, do you want to?" Suzaku asked. "Who? Why?" I asked. "He's my legal guardian and my superior in the Britannian army, he asked to meet you for some reason" Suzaku told me. "Uh… ok, when do I meet him?" I asked. "Today, after classes, meet me at the front of the school" he said as we walked into class.

"Ok I think it was weird it of him to ask me that but if someone from the army wants to see me, guess I got to go"

Later…

"Ok, where are you Suzaku? I'm waiting?" I mumbled. "Hey, sorry I'm late, I was writing something down, oh and don't worry about missing your date with Shirley, it wont take that long" he said. "Alright" I said. We ran over to the college across from us where this Lloyd person is based.

"Lloyd, Lloyd, I brought him" Suzaku said as his voice echoed through the room. Then I saw someone pop up from a computer desk. "Purple hair?" I asked, "Yea I don't get it either" Suzaku answered. "Oh so you did bring him, it's a pleasure to meet you Rai, I've heard a lot about" Lloyd said. "How could he have heard a lot about me? I don't know him."

After a long talk with Lloyd…

"Anyway, Suzaku has said how physically fit and smart you are, I would like you to test something for me, please?" Lloyd asked. "Ok, what is it" I asked back. "I want you to try out the Lancelot" he said. "A knightmare? That sounds like a lot of fun" I said joyfully.

After suiting up and getting "notes" from Suzaku about how the knightmare works, I finally got in and turned it on. A screen turned on and the Britannian flag popped up on it. "All set?" "Good, I want you to demonstrate how capable you are of using my knightmare". Lloyd said after I could see outside.

I'm still working on the entire story, I have school and loads of homework, so i can't work on it 24/7. I take all reviews as compliments, good or bad. It helps me as a writer learn how to write better. Here is a preview of the next chapter. If you have any ideas on how the story should play out, message me about them, i might just use them. The last sentence is said by Lelouch.

"It looks like you have a new rival Lelouch"

"He may be the greatest i've ever met"

"Suzaku, LOOK OUT"

"I love the world, but does it love me?"

He may be my greatest asset, or my greatest rival, only time will tell.
