23rd July, 2009 a.t.b.

Camberley Villa, Holy Britannian Empire

Cornelia was inside her home, the Camberley Villa, together with Marrianne vi Brittania and her daughter Nunnally vi Brittania.

Her mother Violeta li Brittania and sister Euphemia li Brittania were walking in the gardens of their Camberley Villa, enjoying their afternoon walk.

Cornelia li Brittania loved the gardens.

She felt safe here, it seemed that no harm can reach her, everything was peaceful.

She couldn't have imagine what will happend today, and her ilusion of the peaceful world around her will be shatterd.

Violeta was a friend of Marianne vi Brittania, she was one of the first along with Ashfords to support lady Marriane her rise to knight of the round and emperor's consort.

Marriane offen visits Violeta, she always bring her daughter Nunnally along and from time to time her son Lelouch.

Altough Lelouch was barely 20, he was extreamly smart, he showed himself to be a very capable commander during the Rebellion of Area 7 (Brazil).

Even though Lelouch seemed paranoid of everything and cold, he deeply cared for his sister and mother. He didn't really care much of his half sublings, the only ones he showed any signs of respect were for Odysseus, Schneizel , Clovis and to some degree Guinevere.

But to li Brittania sublings he threated them as they were his full blooded sisters.

Whenever he vissited them the first thing he did was to play a chess with Cornelia. Although Cornelia herself was 9 years old and wasnt as smart as Lelouch, she showed potential, he knew Cornelia could become a great general leading the Brittanian armies to victory.

Cornelia saw her half brother as a teacher, a mentor, she looked at him as an insperation to be great.

Much like Lelouch, she was also paranoid, always cautious of outsiders. She hated the nobles. She saw them nothing but vulchers ready to strike at any moment. She wanted to be strong, so that she can protect those she hold dear.

The only one outside her familly she was able open up and befriend was Stefan Saxe-Coburg.

The Bulgarian kingdom was a long time ally of the Holly Brittanian Empire. They fought together in the Great war againts the E.U.. Even thought the war ended mostly in a stalemate for both of the super powers, Bulgaria was able to keep a larg part of the Balkans.

This immediately made Bulgaria an important crossrode between the E.U. to the west and north and M.E.F. to the south east, with its important geo strategic place.

The Bulgarian king Boris III saw this as oportunity to strengthen the countrys's economy and military. He remade the once small and unimportant country and to a small superpower that can go toe to toe with the E.U..

Now even though Bulgaria has much declared to be neutral in all of the recent world conflicts, it stayes as dominant and uncontested ruler of the Balkans and a force to be rekon with.

By the begining of the 1990s a.t.b., a new political movement swept the country. This new political movement grow into a revolt againts the king. Demanding the country reforms into a democratic republic, this ended into a short but bloody civil war. The civil war ended in victory for loyalists, but consequences of the war left the kings familly killed all but the current king Simeon II and his grandson Stefan.

Now as the third millenium of the Brittish calendar came, the Bulgarian kingom stayed a distant ally to Brittania. Neighter approving the recent conquests of countries around the world but neighter dissaproving.

Cornelia met Stefan in the Imperium palace when she was 6,while Stefan was 10. At first Stefan was scared of Cornelia. When he first met her, she shot him a death glare that she learned from Lelouch,aperantly that scared Stefan for sometime before he recoverd from his welcoming from the li Brittania blood line.

Simeon II send his grandson to Brittania so that he could learn from the Brittanian culture and way of life of the imperium familly, and to make allies early on in life.

After spending several months in Pendragon, Cornelia was able to open up to Stefan, and become her first friend outside of her familly. Even though he still feard her to some degree he was able to overcome it and threat her as a friend too.

After several months spending in Pendragon, Stefan eventually returned to his homeland, but from time to time wrote letters to Cornelia.

He later came to Pendragon again two years later, at his request.

Today was like any day for Cornelia. Peaceful, carefree, happy.

Lady Marrianne was visiting once again with Nunnally.

Lelouch was off seas, in Area 7, purging whats left of the 7s resistence.

She was inside the main hall in the Villa together with Nunnally and Marrianne, waiting for Violeta and Euphemia to come back.

After some time of thought, she finally chose to join the Brittanian military, although she was still 9 years old, she wanted to impress her mother, she looked to Lady Marrianne and Lelouch as idols. She wanted to make them pround.

She asked Marrianne about private lessons untill she was old enough to join the military, Marrianne was more than happy to help. Cornelia was overjoyed. Finally she could prove herself to her familly and protect them.

Suddently, what sounded like gun shots rang out.

Screams filled the Villa.

Marrianne realized what was happening and grimance.

"Nellie, Nunna, come with me and stay close ."

After she grabed their hands, she imidietly started running to one of the safe rooms of the Villa.

Cornelia was confused by what was happening. What was happening ? Why was there what sounded like shots going out happend ? Why did Lady Marrianne imidietly took her hand and started to run ? Where were her mother and sis-...

Then a suddent realisation hit her.

She felt her body shiver as the thought of her own familly getting hurt.

As they entert the saferoom, Marrianne locked the door after them.

"Lady Marrianne, mother and Euphie are outside! We must go and get them to safety too!" Cornelia pled.

Marrianne knew that her friend and third princes were outside, but there was no way to get to them until the guard organize.

"Nellie, calm down. We still dont know what is happening outside, and we're not sure if those shots were for them."

"But we have to go and get them to safety too!" cried out Cornelia.

"Mother she is right. We cant let aunty and Euphie stay outside!" spoke out Nunnally.

Marrianne grimance. She knew wich shots ment for earlier. Altought Violeta wasnt as hated as she was, she did have her fare share of haters inside of the Imperium court.

She didnt expect Violeta to be first to fall victim to assasinations by the court.

Several questions ran in Marriannes mind. Who excactly was responsible for this. Was it the Duke of Florida Andrew Philips ? Few years ago Violeta uncoverd that the Duke was selling false meditication to the colonies in wich resulted the death of thousents of numbers. After unveiling the truth to the public, the Duke was ruined and charged as a criminal. But the court againts him draged for years seemingly from the Dukes strings from the inside. But was this really by him ? If it was by him, how was he able to penetrate the guard defences of the Villa ? Was it someone from the inside ? Or is this attack orchestrated by someone else.

Her trail of thoughts were cut off by hearing of crying. She turned and saw Cornelia was crying. She knew she couldnt do anything, but to wait untill the guards organized themselfs agains the intruders. There was only one thing she could do.

Marrianne walked to Cornelia and Nunnally and deeply embraced both of them, trying to comfort both of them.

After what seemed hours, suddently loud banging came from the door.

"Lady Marrianne are you there !?" a voice barked out.

Taking caughtion, Marrianne pulled out a pistol she was hiding in her dress. Signaling to the girls to cover their ears and hide in the corner of the room, she slowly unlocked the door.

After opening the door she was greeted by three armed men in full military gear, altough covert in full military gear, Marrianne was able to recognize the men to be part of Violetas guard.

"My lady, are you alright ?" asked one of the soldiers, seemingly relaxing with the rest at the sight of Marrianne.

"I am unharmed. What is the situation in the Villa ? "

"The entire guard was mobilized and is on sight, more reinforcements are coming from the Langley air force base. As of now there is no trace of the intruders, it appears after their attack they have retreated." replied the second soldier.

"And what of Lady Violeta and princess Euphemia ?"

At this, all three of the guards stiffen. Marrine scowed, she knew the situation was bad, she hoped her fears werent true.

"Lady Violeta has been killed and princess Euphemia is wounded. Her condition is stable for now, it seems that Lady Violeta used herself as a shield to protect the princes, her wounds are mostly on her legs. She currently awaits V-35 Ox to evacuate her to the Imperial hospital."

Her fears were true. This cowardly attacked was aimed at Violeta. After completing their objective the attackers seemingly withdrew before the guards were able to mobilized. She was going to see into the investigation and rat out whoever was behind this.

"Lady Marriane, we have to evacuate you out to a more secured place. Aditional transport aircraft are on their way. Untill they arive please stay here and await transportaion." called out one of the guards.

"We'll stay and guard you untill then, after the V Ox have arrived we'll escored you to extraction." called out the second guard.

In the corner of the room, Cornelia heard the conversation. She couldn't believe her ears. Her mother was dead and her sister was wounded. How could have this happend ?

How could such a thing happend in one of the most secured places in the empire ? Why did they took her mother away ?

She fell on her knees, shivering as tears begun to flow from her eyes once again.

Night has fallen over Brittania. For most, it was a reguler day of their lifes.

For Cornelia li Brittania, it was a day that changed her life. A day she will remember forever.

And on this day, a revolutionist was born.

Authors note:::

So this is my first fanfiction, any critism and reviews are welcome. Keep in mind that this my first fanfiction and english is not my first language. So please be gentle.

So yeah the story itself is just swap the character places to be honest. Lelouch is 20 years old while Cornelia is 9, for now Lelouch wont get hurt or attack. He will be Brittanias Black General for a while. I first thought of making someone inside the royal familly an ally of Cornelia later on but I droped it. So I made an entire new country, and also made a new character and a total new route for Cornelias rebelion agains her father.
SPOILER ALERT
As far as Violeta go, she isnt conected with geass at all. It was assassing from the imperial court killing her.
END OF SPOLER

Ill think more ahead with time for the story.
For now again drop a review.
