This is my first crossover. This chapter takes place in place of Kallen, Suzaku, Lelouch, and Euphemia being teleported to Kamine; in this fic they are teleported to Tellius instead. So that makes this AlternateUniverse, but then again it would need to be since it's a crossover. Please review after reading it, and tell me which characters you want to be more heavily featured!
Suzaku woke to unfamiliar surroundings. He saw a man and a woman trying to pacify some rowdy teenagers, all maybe a bit younger than himself. He'd seen scenes of the sort may times before. Except in this particular case, the kids had swords and spears. And the ones trying to settle them down were fully armoured wielding a lance and an axe. No knightmares, no guns, nothing of that sort. He made a mental note to inquire further when they were done. While waiting for that time, he thought about where he could possibly be. He remembered that the Lancelot had stopped functioning and he had almost captured the infamous terrorist, Zero. While waiting for the Brittanian army with Zero in the Lancelot's cockpit, Zero had said something, something that he remembered as having bothered him. After that, a large airship flew nearby and Suzaku couldn't remember anything between then and waking up in the strange town. He could remember seeing Princess Euphemia, too, but he honestly couldn't remember whether she had been calling through a videocommunication line or if she had rushed onto the battlefield for some strange reason. The former made more sense, but then again with the third Princess things more often did not make sense. After letting the thoughts sink into their best places in his mind, he tried to radio the base and tell them where he was when he realized two very important things:
1. Suzaku wasn't really sure where he was.
2. Wherever he was, his radio didn't work.
"Um, excuse me! Where is this place? And what were they trying to do?" Suzaku asked the lady with light turquoise hair.
"You're in Ohma, a town of proud Crimeans! Except for this lot. Some youngsters nowadays! Honestly, they don't know the two ends of the stick if they can believe that Queen Elincia is a 'bad' ruler!" Nephenee ranted as Brom caught the unsuspecting boy in bear hug of greeting.
"W-whoa!" Suzaku shouted as he toppled over under the weight of the older man's armour.
"Sorry. My name's Brom by the way and that girl over there with the lance is Nephenee. What's your name, stranger?" Brom asked as he helped the teen to his feet.
"Warrant Officer Suzaku Kururugi, knight of third princess Euphemia li Britannia of the Holy Britannian Empire. It's nice to meet you, Brom and Nephenee." Suzaku said, smiling.
"Brittanian empire? That another name for Begnion down south?" Brom asked. Suzaku's happy expression changed to one of worry, as he had never heard of Begnion before.
"Nah, it's somewhere deep down in Goldoa innit?" Nephenee suggested.
"No, Brittania is west, across the ocean." Suzaku said, still clearly unware of or oblivious to the fact that he wasn't in area 11 anymore.
"Ah, Suzaku, you're such a joker! It's clearly in the goddess' history of the world that the dark god's Great Flood destroyed all the continents except her beloved Tellius! Or something like that anyway." Nephenee laughed. Now it was Suzaku's turn to be confused.
"Tellius?" Suzaku inquired.
"Yeah, Tellius, our continent!" Brom explained.
"Ok... And also, who is Queen Elincia? And what area are we in?" Suzaku asked. Brom and Nephenee stared at him like he was insane.
"Queen Elincia is the daughter of King Ramon and the ruler of Crimea since the invasion by Daein four years ago which took her father's life. She became Queen three years ago when Sir Ike defeated Daein's mad King Ashnard. And areas, if you mean what we learned about in the militia, I think we're in area 18." Nephenee said. Ah, that makes more sense., Suzaku thought, I had heard Area 18 had a large rebellion recently. But Viceroy Cornelia sorted them out, so then how? Have I gone back in time, maybe?
Deciding it best not to ask any more, Suzaku followed them when they went to tell their Queen of the winds of rebellion. Suzaku knew the wish to protect one's homeland from rebellious elements all too well. It was his reason for piloting the Z01 Lancelot, after all. Upon reaching Queen Elincia's court, Suzaku waited outside with the Royal Knights as Brom and Nephenee delivered their information to her majesty.
"I'm Geoffrey of Delbray, commander of the Crimean Royal Knights. Who are you? And, not to be rude, we all heard you were a knight but why aren't you wearing any armour or carrying a weapon?" Geoffrey asked, extending his hand in greeting.
"Warrant officer Suzaku Kururugi. Nice to meet you." Suzaku replied, holding his Lancelot key out to Geoffrey in answer to his second question.
"I'm Marcia, and this is my brother Makalov." Marcia's voice came from out the window and Suzaku saw a girl with short pink hair on a winged horse outside. She pointed to the guy collapsed on the floor in a stupor and sighed.
"So, Suzaku, as I said before we heard from Nephenee that you're a knight too. Naturally, Kieran wanted to ask if you're up for a spar." Geoffrey said.
"Sure." Suzaku said as Kieran tossed him a wooden sword. Kieran did a thrust at Suzaku, who parried the blow and knocked Kieran's stick out of his hand. Suzaku still wondered if they had Knightmare frames here, wherever here was. Shortly after the quick conclusion of the duel, a lady with long blue hair and a sword emerged from the meeting room.
"Ah, Geoffrey. I swear by the goddess, those nobles couldn't be any less prudent."
"Dear sister Lucia, it can't be as bad as all that, surely." Geoffrey said to his older sister.
"No, it is not. Thankfully her Majesty has allowed me, along with Brom, Nephenee, Nealuchi, and Princess Leanne to investigate Lord Ludveck in Felirae." Lucia smiled, while Geoffrey's expression turned sour and grim.
"Is Queen Elincia certain? The Royal Knights could go." Geoffrey said to the Queen, who was stepping into the corridor.
"Yes, Geoffrey, my decision is final. The Royal Knights going to Felirae would warrant too much trouble from the duke." Elincia explained. Geoffrey nodded, gladdened by the fact that her decision in fact was not a rash one. Kieran, on the other hand, pouted in a corner. Elincia turned to Suzaku.
"You are a knight from a far away land, correct?" The Queen asked. Suzaku nodded.
"If I may ask a favour of you, will you accompany my foster sister to Felirae?"
"Yes, your highness." Suzaku replied, bowing deeply. Everyone else present laughed.
"Ehem. Thank you. But we don't really bother with such formalities as bowing here, except for the occasional knighthood ceremony." Lucia explained when she had composed herself. Suzaku thought that was quite a change from Brittania, where many nobles construed not bowing to a royal as treason.
"Now then, what with the rebels you three must have had a tiring and stressful day. I'm grateful you came to warn us of the danger. You should go get a good night's sleep, tomorrow may be a long day." Queen Elincia said warmly.
The next day, they headed towards Felirae. Suzaku took their journey time as an opportunity to get acquainted with the other travelers. The main point he noted about Princess Leanne and Nealuchi was that they had wings. Back in area 11 and Brittania, that was impossible. Suzaku was fairly sure it was impossible no matter the geographic region. Lloyd and Cecile would have been quite fascinated if they had been there. Lelouch, too. And Lucia's sword could send blades of magic wind energy a good distance. That was plain alarming. The sword Marcia had given him was nice and relatively normal… except that it was infused with blood to give it a better chance of striking vital points. Lethe and Mordecai, two others coming with them, could transform into an orange cat and a blue tiger respectively. Suzaku had a feeling that there were more oddities he would soon find.
At Felirae castle, Lord Ludveck greeted them in a very friendly manner. Everyone present, with the exception of Lucia, Leanne, and Ludveck, burst into hearty laughter at Lord Ludveck's flirting with Lucia. Lucia got mildly annoyed at this, but not angry. Leanne didn't understand what was going on in the slightest.
That night, the group went to a secret cave on the outskirts of Felirae to do some espionage. Suzaku had been under the impression that they would investigate by simply asking Lord Ludveck about the matter, but apparently not. Just when Lucia had found decisive evidence against Lord Ludveck, some soldiers rushed into the cave and attacked them. And indeed there was another oddity in their attack. Suzaku thought of it as he dodged a thunderbolt from the hand of a soldier. The soldier didn't get a chance to strike again, because Nealuchi, who had transformed into a giant raven, struck him down, but Suzaku still was surprised at that. Launching a lightning bolt from one's hand definitely wasn't possible. Transforming into a bird also wasn't possible, and neither was turning into a feline. Lethe's hostility towards him backed up Suzaku's claim of all cats hating him. He wondered if Princess Euphemia would get along better with her. That really snapped his mind back into focus. He needed to return to area 11 for his duty to protect the princess. He wasn't sure how he had reached the strange land called Tellius though, and he certainly wasn't sure how to get back. He had already made friends with Geoffrey and Kieran, though, and he wanted to help them sort out the rebellion. If he could do that, he had a sneaking suspicion that he'd be able to return home, and not before.
On their hurried return to Crimea castle, Queen Elincia was distressed by the news of Lord Ludveck's guilt. However, she composed herself quickly enough and wrote a warrant of arrest for Lord Ludveck. She then gave it to Geoffrey, along with the order to keep violence and casualties to a minimum if Lord Ludveck's soldiers put up a fight. Suzaku found that admirable, as opposed to the normal issue of doing whatever it took to win. He offered to come with the Royal Knights, but Geoffrey turned his offer down. He requested that Suzaku act as an emergency guard for the Queen, and Suzaku agreed.
The day after the knights left, Lucia went missing. Queen Elincia and Suzaku, along with Leanne, Nealuchi, Brom and Nephenee, had gone to fort Alpea due to a message from Geoffrey saying that Ludveck was not in Felirae and most likely was heading to Melior to attack. However, Ludveck's rebel army instead attacked Alpea and the soldiers loyal to Elincia had their hands more than full defending the Queen. Calill, another of Queen Elincia's friends, was launching firey meteors at the enemy from a large distance. The Queen herself helped by going around on a winged horse healing her allies with a magic crystal staff. Eventually the battle subsided when Suzaku and Geoffrey captured Lord Ludveck.
Later in the day, while Elincia, Geoffrey, and Suzaku were standing on the ramparts of the fort, they found out where Lucia had gone. The remaining rebels stood at the gates and were demanding Lord Ludveck's release with Lucia as a hostage. Queen Elincia was about to give in to their demands when Lucia shouted out for her not to. Tears overflowing, Queen Elincia replied that Ludveck was a traitor and could not be easily forgiven. As the rebels were about to hang Lucia, an arrow shot out of a nearby tree and cleanly cut the rope. As Lucia fell backwards into the crowd of civilians, a tall man with short, dark blue hair and a giant sword caught her and gently laid her on the ground before commencing a battle against the remaining rebels. Someone who Suzaku recognized as Kallen Stadtfeld joined the fight with a switchblade knife.
That's the end of this chapter, a tad Suzaku focused but Lelouch and Euphie will join in soon. I hope you had fun reading it, hopefully it didn't bore your socks off.
