Living a Dream
Chapter 1
Prince Lelouch had only sustained minor injuries during the failed assassination attempt. The police are still pursuing the rebels involved in this crime…
Queen Marianne vi Britannia changed the channel and saw another news about her son.
"Lelouch really need a new bodyguard…And this time that person should be really smart and determined in able to guard our elusive son." She turned her attention to her husband Charles vi Britannia. She had long black hair and violet eyes. Her son, Lelouch, the crown prince, inherited most of her physical traits.
"We should just assign one of my knights to him so that his safety could be ensured." King Charles replied. He had silver hair and an autocratic appearance that truly signified that he was the king of the Britannian Empire.
"You know that Lelouch would be more rebellious if you do that." Marianne said softly.
"You spoil them too much that's why Lelouch grew up to be like that."
"We both know that it's not the truth. Lelouch only turned out to be like that since…"
"It's time for him to get his act together. He is unworthy to become the future king if he continued like this." Charles cut her short.

Kallen Stadtfeld had been exercising for an hour now. She was currently throwing punches at the punching bag.
'I'm going to be a knight! I'm going to achieve our dream brother.' She thought. Her blue eyes were filled with determination.
The red-haired woman was about to start her final year in Lancelot Academy that year. It was a school that trained soldiers. Also, most of the knights of the Kingdom had studied there. All of the five knights are from the male population though.
-shshshsh-
"Kallen, Queen Marianne is going to visit us tonight. She wanted to talk to you. Be in your best behavior and don't embarrass our family." Her stepmother, Claudia, informed Kallen.
'Geez, I need to be lady-like again.' She thought bitterly.
"Yes mother… Do you have any idea what she wants?"
"I have no idea…But whatever she wants, you should abide by it. We should always be on the good side of the royal family." The Stadtfelds were one of the nobles in the Britannian Empire.
Claudia was against the idea of Kallen wanting to be a soldier and a knight. She wanted Kallen to study in Ashford Academy were the rich, famous and powerful families send their children. She wanted Kallen to study there in order to meet a future rich husband. But Kallen's father supported his daughter's dream and allowed her to study in Lancelot Academy.
-shshshsh-
Kallen's usually spiky hair was now combed neatly. She was wearing a light blue dress.
"Good evening Queen Marianne." Kallen and Claudia bowed when Marianne entered their home. Kallen's father was out of the country attending to some business.
They proceeded to the Stadtfeld's library as requested by the Queen.
"I'll go straight to the point…Kallen, I learned that you are the top female student in Lancelot Academy and that's why I want you to become Prince Lelouch's personal bodyguard."
"Huh?" Kallen blurted out. "Forgive me My Queen, please continue."
"I need a female bodyguard because I think that Lelouch would be more considerate to a female bodyguard."
"But aren't there already female soldiers, who could be his bodyguard?"
"Yes, but I need someone who could study with him in Ashford Academy."
-shshshsh-
Kallen had accepted the Queen's request. It was more of an order actually, but she had agreed to it nonetheless. Being the prince's bodyguard would make her and her brother Naoto's dream of becoming a knight, more attainable after all.
She actually preferred to be Princess Nunnally's bodyguard if given a chance, since it was common knowledge that Prince Lelouch was actually difficult to deal with, especially since the incident 1 year ago. She really doesn't know the prince because she only saw him in some parties, and didn't have the chance to really know him.
She looked at the black mask that the Queen had given her. The Prince shouldn't know her real identity for the time being, when she assume her responsibility as a bodyguard.
The Queen instructed her to pretend as just an ordinary student in Ashford Academy. Queen Marianne wanted her son to be guarded in school, without him knowing it.
-shshshsh-
"Lelouch, you are going to study again this year…and I have assigned a female bodyguard for you."
"Mother, I don't want to study this year and I do not want a bodyguard or a female bodyguard for that matter." There was a defiant look on his face.
"Lelouch, your father will assign one of his knights to be your bodyguard if you don't accept this deal. And do you want to be a good-for-nothing prince forever? You need to study again despite of your brilliance. You need to prepare to become a good king in the future…Please son, it's time for you to get your act together…for me, for Nunnally and for the kingdom." Her mother begged him to follow her wishes.
-shshshsh-
He promised his mother that he will go to school again this year. He had no choice about having a female bodyguard though. But he had options on how to make his future bodyguard quit her job. He would be a bit considerate, since his bodyguard would be a woman this time…but only a tiny bit considerate. He then smirked.
-shshshsh-
AN: This story is sort of an experiment too. I just need to get this idea out of my head. LOL
Hehe. So what do you think?
Also, I just made up the stepmom's name; and there are no female knights YET in this story.
