Lelouch of the Rebellion: A Second Chance
Chapter 1: God's Debt
Lelouch had never felt such pain in his life as Zero's sword was pulled from his body. But he felt that it was pain he deserved after all the death and suffering he had caused to the world. He didn't deserve a quick and painless death. Beside he always had a flare for the theatrics and felt that this was the perfect ending to it all. His bloody death would be the end of his bloody rebellion.
Lelouch slowly staggered toward the edge of the platform and slid down the dais staining the Britannian flag with his blood. He came to a stop at his dear sister's feet. Lelouch could just barely hear her cries of sorrow. His body was beginning to shut down. Out of the corner of his eye he could see Kallen's shocked and tear stained face showing that she to had figured out the truth.
He had no regrets in end.
"Yes…"
But if he had the chance he would do thing differently.
"I...I destroy…"
He would treat the Black Knight as comrades not pawns.
"the world…"
He wouldn't throw away innocent lives to meet his goals.
"and create it…"
And finally he would do everything in his power to protect his loved ones from not only from Britannia, but from the power of Geass as well.
"anew." Lelouch finished as everything went black.
'If only fate would give me a second chance. I would promise to every god and deity that I would do things right!'
"IF THAT IS YOUR WISH THEN IT IS TIME TO REPAY MY DEBT."
"He mustn't die!"
Lelouch's eyes snapped open as the voice of a certain witch reached his ears. He watched in shock as C.C. fell to the ground, a small pool of blood beginning to form around her head staining her beautiful light green hair. He could His mind began to race as he finally realized his eerily familiar surroundings.
'This is that day. The day I was given my Geass. But how…Wait that voice! Could it be possible.'
"It seems that the saying is true. The Gods can work miracles," Lelouch whispered as he slowly stood up from his crouched position next to his beloved witch's body and faced the Royal Guard as their leader finished reciting the lie he planned to tell his commanders about C.C. 'death'.
Tell me something how should Britannian who detests his own country live his life?" Lelouch asked as he repeated the words he spoke that day, the words that started his rebellion.
"What are you some kind of radical?" the Captain asked unnerved suddenly, by Lelouch's sudden calm demeanor.
"What's wrong? Why not shoot your opponent is just a schoolboy? Or have you finally realized that the only ones who should kill are the ones who are prepared to be killed!" Lelouch stated uncovering his eye smirking as his Geass activated.
"What's happening here?" the Captain asked fearfully at the sight of Lelouch's eye.
"I Lelouch vi Britannia command you all of you die!" Lelouch ordered coldly without a hint of remorse.
After a few second the Captain began to laugh and said, "Happily your Highness! Fire!"
The Captain then pointed his gun at his own neck, as did the rest of the Royal Guard pulled the trigger. Gunshots rang out and bodies dropped to the floor. A little blood splattered on Lelouch's face just like the first time. Lelouch could remember vaguely feeling some mild horror back then. After all he just kill people with just a single order. But after two years of his rebellion he become almost numb to it. Looking down at his fallen witch he found himself staring in a pair liquid amber eyes.
"I see you already have a contractor," C.C. said softly as she got up.
Lelouch smirked and walked up to his unsuspecting witch and whispered, "Yes I do. You my sweet C.C. or would you prefer Cera?"
C.C. gasped as Lelouch grabbed her arm and pulled her into a passionate kiss. Suddenly C.C. could see memories, memories of a time that had yet to transpire. She saw their partnership and their rebellion. A single tear ran down her face as she watched his suicide to bring peace to the world. The shock of it all was enough to cause her legs to grow weak. The only thing holding her up was Lelouch's arms wrapped around her waist. More tears ran down her face as she clung to the only man she ever loved. The first man who loved her for all she was in return. Finally they pulled apart and Lelouch with a gentle look in his eyes wiped her tears away.
"So C.C. are you ready restart our rebellion?" Lelouch asked with a dark grin.
"Of course, after all you have yet fulfill your end of the contract boy," C.C. answered with poke to Lelouch's chest.
Lelouch shook his head at her antics. Suddenly the wall next to them exploded as a Purists Sutherland burst through. Lelouch could help but smirk as the voice of Villetta Nu rang out.
"You there what happened here. Why are all these Royal Guardsmen dead and why is Britannian student in a place like this?" Villetta demanded shooting at the wall behind them.
'It is time to reacquaint myself with the Black Knights and of course my beloved Queen,' Lelouch thought as he opened his mouth and shouted, "My name is Alan Spacer."
