EchoGirl: Well, this is my new story, The Power of Queens.
Goldfish: It's her first Code Geass story.
EchoGirl: Yeah, so I hope it's OK. I started watching Code Geass not all that long ago and I have to say it's definitely one of the best animes I've ever seen and I just thought this up so I thought I'd write it and see what you guys think, so enjoy!
Goldfish: EchoGirl319 does not own Code Geass.
The Power of Queens
Prologue
C.C. simply stared with unblinking gold eyes at the child opposite her. The child merely stared back with the same unwavering violet gaze.
This was getting nowhere.
Scheming, uber-intelligent teenage princes who hated their own nation, yes, she could deal with. Babies, no.
Lelouch and Kallen just couldn't control their hormones, could they? And now she was left with the result. Lelouch was dead, Kallen was hospitalised and C.C. and just saved their child from terrified doctors wielding fatal apparatus.
You just had to make everyone hate you, huh, Lelouch?
Yes, for five months now the demon emperor had been dead and the world was finally at piece, just as Lelouch had planned, and his name was an international source of hatred and terror. But he had failed to think about a certain unborn baby that was his spitting image from a woman that had been rumoured to be having an affair with him. Of course people would would immediately jump to conclusions and suspect, righteously so, the child's heritage and worry that it would plot world domination and thus try to kill only moments out of the womb.
People could be such idiots these days. It was a baby; it wasn't going to neccessarily end up like its father. Plus, it wasn't like Lelouch was an evil guy, all those deaths had a reason behind them. What was so bad about world peace?
Honestly, has no one the brains to see the bigger picture? The lime-haired witch's thoughts turned to the Black Knights and she thought of her time with them. Even they had betrayed Lelouch. Nope, no one.
And then their was Kallen. Kallen who had been crazy enough to crash the Guren while being almost eight months pregnant. C.C. couldn't resist rolling her eyes. Only Kallen would do something like that.
As far as C.C. was aware, Kallen was currently comatose and the doctors had freaked when they'd performed caesarian to save the baby only to find, when it opened its big violet eyes, only to find a female copy of the feared demon emperor. And, naturally, C.C. had come to the rescue. She always seemed to end up saving Lamperouge / vi Britannia asses somehow.
She couldn't help but wonder, however, what Kallen would think when she woke up without the baby inside her. Whether Kallen actually wanted the child or not was a mystery to green-haired immortal, but she did remember that the redhead and been practically having a panic attack when she found out about it after Lelouch's death and that she hadn't told anyone and covered it up. After all, a child with the demon meant a life of discrimation and lonliness. Her friends would have abandoned her no doubt.
But, what if she did want the baby? It had been no secret that the Guren pilot had been deeply in love with Lelouch and she could've had the baby aborted at anytime... then again, she didn't seem like that sort of person...
"I'm doing her a favour," C.C. decided aloud. "Besides, Lelouch told me to protect and look after something for him," she glanced at the baby across from her, "I suppose he meant you."
The child said nothing but continued to stare at her with those all-too-familiar violet eyes.
"You're not going to make this easy for me, are you?"
The staring continued.
"Honestly, what sort of baby are you? Weird emperor-rebel spawn."
As the child seemed to do nothing but stare at her, C.C. simply proceeded to hug her cheese-kun plushie close to her chest and stare up at the ceiling.
Lelouch, what is this thing you and Kallen created and expect me to look after? It doesn't even cry.
Glancing down again, the witch noticed that the baby's attention had been diverted and was now staring intently at her cheese-kun with a look of want in its eyes.
Immediately C.C. was on the defensive and hugged the yellow pizza hut doll tighter.
"Oh, no, you don't."
That was when the tears finally began and for once the green-haired immortal was at a loss. After ten minutes of bawling she reluctantly passed the oversized doll over to the infant. Anything to get it to stop. The child's wails instantly ceased and was replaced by a sort of cooing laughter as the baby pressed its tiny pale hands into cheese-kun's soft yellow head head before falling asleep, it's arms wrapped around it.
C.C. simply glared up at the ceiling and grabbed another slice of pizza and taking a large bite.
Lelouch, you so owe me for this.
EchoGirl: So, what do you think? I hope I got C.C. in character. Anyways please review and tell me whether or not I should continue this and no flames please!
