The True Rebellion Begins
"The Emperor…is dead?" Area 11 was in chaos. The stadium where it was being announced was soon overflowing with shouts of what to do and 'You're lying!" The man who had ruled Japan for the longest time had vanished. After being ruled like that, no one knew what to do. Four Knights of the Round, Anya, Gino, Suzaku, and Luciano were stationed by the podium. "Good riddance," Suzaku mumbled. "Hey Suzaku, better keep you're mouth shut, or else you'll likely be executed," Gino replied. "Suzaku's right. Charles zi Britannia was likely to be surpassed any day. It was only a matter of time before he would be killed," Luciano was all too happy about it. Suzaku was too deep in thought to be listening. "Lelouch, you better be in position." He decided it was time. The three other Knights just watched him as he walked up to the podium, shoved the announcer aside, and spoke, "People of Japan! Now that Charles zi Britannia is dead, I, Suzaku Kururugi, shall be the new Emperor!" The crowd was silent for only a few seconds before it was elevens shouting against Britannians. The elevens were crying out in happiness, now that a fellow eleven would be taking over this place and granting them their Japanese names back. Half of the Britannians were shouting about how an honorary Britannian would be a disgrace in the throne for Britannia, the other half were mumbling about how it might not be a bad idea, seeing as how he was fit in Princess Euphemia's eyes to serve as her knight. "Suzaku, what the hell are you thinking? We were granted this position in honor to serve Britannia, not to use it to climb to the rank of Emperor!" Gino was astounded." "This is not good…" Anya muttered. "Go Suzaku!" Luciano looked as if he would support Suzaku all the way. One angry Britannian climbed onto the stage with a knife, attempted to stab Suzaku, but out of nowhere Lelouch (in Zero form), Kallen, Ohgi, and Tamaki fell. As Tamaki came down, he stabbed the man first. "People of Japan! As you can see by this foolish Britannian's choice to harm Suzaku, he was killed with ease! The Black Knight's will take down anyone who dare defy Emperor Suzaku Kururugi!" The stadium was again filled with cries of Zero being a traitor to Japan or why he should or shouldn't be helping him. "Aww, man. C'mon, I wanna start shooting the Britannians," Tamaki whined. "Calm down. Anything unnecessary and those Knights of the Round could have us all dead in an instant," Kallen cautioned. As she looked behind her, she could see Zero/Lelouch talking to the announcer. The announcer then came up to the stage. "Attention please! As you all know, I am the official messenger for the Britannian Empire. As of today, honorary Britannian Suzaku Kururugi is officially Britannia's Emperor!" Kallen looked at him. She was the only one that noticed that the announcer had a red ring around his eyes.
