Note: Code Geass is an anime that was done by the studio Sunrise. This story was originally an idea I had for Fiction Press, but I decided to make it a Code Geass fic instead.

One day, Milly Ashford had Lelouch Lamperouge and the other members of the Student Council start packing up drinkable pizza bottles, so they could go to the New York City's new pool and sell it. Milly knew that Lelouch was the Council's most immature member, so she kept an extra eye on him. She walked up to him and asked, "How are things going?"

Lelouch explained, "Things are going well. I had lunch with C. C., yesterday."

Milly said, "Wow, that's big news."

Lelouch stuck his hands in the air and replied, "It's not as big as it sounds. It wasn't a date or anything, She, Diethard Ried, and me had some fast food. It tasted super good. She seemed to be having a nice time, so I think things are improving."

Milly patted Fred on the back and said, "They sure are."

Lelouch had a confused look on his face, while asking, "How come we're going to sell drinkable pizza, at the new swimming pool?"

Milly said, "New York City and new things are a combination that leads to lots of people showing up. Because of that, there's going to be a lot of chances to make money."

Lelouch replied, "Swimming pools and drinks don't seem like a combination that go together. When I go to the pool, I usually just drink pool water."

Milly said, "First off, that's super dangerous and dumb. Second off, I'm going to be presenting the drinkable shampoo today, the first day of the new pool. I'm sure they'll be thousands of people, that'll be needing a drink."

Lelouch asked, "Thousands? I think you're overestimating the length of the pool."

Milly paused and replied, "I may be exaggerating, but I still think we're going to get rich."

Lelouch smiled and responded, "Sounds great."

Forty five minutes later, Milly, Lelouch, and the other employees arrived at the swimming pool. They started setting up some drinkable shampoo stands. Lelouch looked around and saw a coffee machine. He threw some coffee at the stand Suzaku Kururugi was setting up. Suzaku said, "Your pranks never fail to be weird, Fred."

Lelouch replied, "Thanks."

C. C. arrived, wearing a white uniform. Lelouch walked up to her and asked, "What are you doing here?"

C. C. said, "I'm going to be guarding the event."

Lelouch asked, "Guarding? It's not like people are going to steal pool water."

Rakshata Chawla arrived, wearing one of her gothic dresses. C. C. said, "Excuse me, Lelouch." She started walking up to Rakshata. Lelouch wondered what C. C. was up to.

C. C. said, "Hi Rakshata. Are you prepared to stop Emperor Charles and Prince Schneizel?"

Rakshata replied, "I sure am. In the meantime, we should join the pool party."

C. C. said, "No way. We're here to be heroes, not swimmers."

Rakshata sighed and replied, "Very well then."

A half hour later, a few hundred swimmers came. Mayor Takahta used a microphone, while saying, "Thank you for coming here. As the Mayor of New York City, it's my responsibility, to make sure this city is as well off as possible. Our previous swimming pool was full of old bags of garbage. We're not sure what kind of prankster did that, but we're working hard to keep that from that from ever happening again." Lelouch had an embarrassed look on his face, because he used to dump bags of garbage into the swimming pool. Mayor Takahata said, "This new pool is full of fresh water, has plenty of room, and there's no garbage in sight. If we work together, we can clean up all of the city's problems. After all, we're more than just a city. We're a family." The crowd clapped. Mayor Takahata said, "Feel free to start swimming."

Lelouch rose his thumbs in the air and replied, "Very well put."

Milly said, "If you get thirsty, we have plenty of bottles of drinkable pizza. It's only twenty dollars, per bottle."

C. C. looked around for Emperor Charles and Prince Schneizel Vi Britannia, but she didn't see either of them. She stood around, with a concerned look on her face. Rakshata nudged her and said, "You need to chill out."

C. C. replied, "No I don't. Charlie boy has big things planned. We can't let him trick Schneizel into getting rid of Lelouch."

Rakshata asked, "Why not?"

C. C. had an offended look on her face, while asking, "How could you suggest such a thing?"

Rakshata had a sneaky look on her face, while saying, "We could have Schneizel get rid of Lelouch and then we defeat the old Emperor and punk prince, together."

C. C. folded her arms and said, "You agreed to not do anything illegal, so stick to your end of the bargain."

Rakshata replied, "Okay then."

Emperor Charles and Prince Schneizel arrived. Charles was wearing an old ski mask, to cover up his identity. He looked around and saw that Lelouch had started swimming. He said, "Go into the pool and make Lelouch drown."

Schneizel replied, "Yes sir." He jumped into the pool. Schneizel jumped in so fast, that it was hard for C. C. to tell it was him. Schneizel swam up to Lelouch and said, "Hi Lelouch."

Lelouch turned around and was surprised to see Schneizel. He asked, "How come you're not in jail?"

Schneizel said, "I served my sentence. I do plan on reforming, but I plan on getting revenge on you first." Lelouch grabbed a nearby cup of batteries and threw it in Schneizel's face. Schneizel angrily said, "Face my revenge." He tried to grab Lelouch, but Lelouch started swimming away. It was the world's widest swimming pool, so there were plenty of places to swim to.

C. C. looked at Rakshata and said, "Prince Schneizel's in there and is trying to attack Lelouch. Stay here and look for the Emperor. I'm going to save Lelouch." C. C. was wearing a blue diving costume, underneath her white uniform, so she removed her uniform and jumped into the pool.

Lelouch kept swimming around. He wondered why Schneizel was trying to hurt him, since he seemed to want to redeem himself, the last time they fought. Lelouch swam by Lloyd and said, "Hi, Earl of Pudding."

Lloyd smiled and replied, "Hi buddy. What's going on?"

Lelouch said, "An old enemy's trying to hurt me. He's swimming after me, right now.

Lloyd replied, "Keep on swimming. I think I know how to fool him."

Lelouch responded, "Okay then." Lelouch continued swimming.

Schneizel swam by Lloyd. Lloyd tapped him on the head and said, "I'm Fred."

Schneizel angrily asked, "What are you talking about? You have purple hair and don't look nearly as icky." He pushed Lloyd, out of the way, and kept swimming after Lelouch.

A few minutes later, Schneizel swam up to Lelouch. Lelouch tried swimming away, but Schneizel grabbed him and said, "I'm going end your crazy career of cruel pranks."

Lelouch replied, "You don't understand. I've been working on redeeming myself. You should do the same thing."

Schneizel responded, "I thought I could move on with my way, but Charles made me realize that I needed revenge on you first." He grabbed Lelouch and was going to hurt him, but C. C. swam by and kicked Schneizel, in the stomach.

Lelouch smirked and said, "Nice."

C. C. smiled back and replied, "Thank you."

Schneizel saw C. C. and said, "You should go. I have no need to hurt you. Lelouch's the only one who has to pay."

C. C. replied, "You need to give up your rivalry with Lelouch. If you don't, you'll never manage to redeem yourself."

Schneizel said, "Lelouch has gotten away with too much. Punishment must be sent to him." He punched Lelouch in the face. C. C. grabbed Schneizel. She wanted to kick him across the pool, but there were tons of people nearby, so she lightly kicked him. Schneizel had a smug smile on his face, while saying, "That was hardly impact worthy."

Meanwhile, Rakshata walked up to Charles and said, "Sick ski mask."

Charles replied, "Thank you."

Rakshata said, "So, you're a skier?"

Charles replied, "Um, yes I am. I've been in the skiing Olympics for twenty years. I've accomplished a lot of great things."

Rakshata responded, "Yeah right." She took off his mask and revealed that it was Charles.

Charles said, "You ruined my secret identity."

Rakshata replied, "Ski masks are only used for skiing people and robbers. You're in too rough of shape to be a skier, so I knew who you were."

Charles glared at her and asked, "What do you want?"

Rakshata had a mischievous smile on her face, while saying, "I want to put you out of business."

Charles nervously replied, "But my business is my favorite thing."

Schneizel grabbed Lelouch and said, "Prepare for your finale."

Lelouch replied, "This isn't my finale. I'm going to change and improve myself. Your stubbornness and desire to live in the past, isn't going to stop me from moving on with my life."

Schneizel looked at Lelouch and asked, "What's with you? You're not speaking in the same sort of fashion."

C. C. swam by and replied, "Lelouch's changed. He's becoming a better person. I admit that he still has flaws, but he's putting effort into changing. I believe that nobody's a hopeless case, including you. Don't resort to revenge. You can become something great."

Schneizel thought about it, but Charles' bad influence was still affecting his decisions. He responded, "I can't let Lelouch go by, without punishment." He punched and kicked Lelouch.

C. C. was expecting better from him, so she replied, "Schneizel, you're being a fool."

Schneizel replied, "You're the foolish one, for having so much blind faith in Lelouch. He has done nothing worthy of respect and admiration. He's a fraud, a prankster, and a jerk." Schneizel tried to make Lelouch drown, but C. C. would never let that happen, so she punched Schneizel and threw him onto a nearby lifeguard chair.

Princess Cornelia Vi Britannia was about to go into the pool, but she looked around and saw Prince Schneizel. She walked up to him and said, "Hi Schneizel. I heard that you finished your prison sentence. I was expecting you to visit me sooner."

Schneizel replied, "I had to revenge on Lelouch first."

Lelouch looked at Cornelia and said, "Schneizel tried to make me drown. He claimed that he had to get rid of me, before he could move on with his life."

Cornelia faced Schneizel and asked, "Why you try to do that? You claimed that you wanted to improve yourself."

Schneizel replied, "Yes, but revenge was an essential step to moving on."

Cornelia had a sad look on her face, while saying, "No, that's a step to being a bad guy again."

Schneizel had a guilty look on his face, while saying, "I'm sorry for messing me up again. Our father made me think that revenge was the only thing to do."

Cornelia asked, "How about listening to me, instead of old Charlie, from now on?"

Schneizel lightly smiled and said, "That sounds like a much better deal."

C. C. stepped out of the pool, put handcuffs on Schneizel, and said, "I'm afraid that you have to go back to prison."

Schneizel sighed and replied, "I understand."

C. C. said, "The police station is a few blocks away. Princess Cornelia will escort you there." She paused and said, "Despite what happened, I think you have the potential to become a better person. Embrace your potential, instead of listening to the Emperor's evil nonsense."

Schneizel replied, "I'll do that." Cornelia started walking him to the police.

C. C. looked around and saw Rakshata chasing the Emperor. The two of them were starting to leave the pool area. C. C. went to the changing room, got on her white uniform back on, and started running after them. She hoped that she could get to them, before either of them did anything sneaky.

Lelouch lounged around the pool, while being glad about Schneizel's defeat. He had a smug smile on his face, while saying, "That cute C. C. is going to be falling in love with me. I'm super smart, so I know the future." The Student Council was tired of Lelouch's nonsense, so they pushed him into the pool. While in the pool, he saw the Student Council laughing at him. Lelouch started laughing with them.
