Greetings, readers! You are now about to enter Dark Zero 1718's first adventure story! :D
This have been stuck in my head a looong time ago, before I even signed up here. This may contain a few violence, not really gore-ish but just the usual. That's why I rated it T for teenagers. For safety. Whoever is fond of knightmare actions, you're gonna like this. Truthfully, I'm not really an expert in writing when it comes to actions, that is. So I suggest you to be easy on me. I'll try my best, promise! :)
WARNING: The first few chapters maybe short. But it gets longer and longer.
DISCLAIMER: I don't own Code Geass.
Now, I present..the Prologue!
CODE GEASS: THE WRATH OF THE RESUSCITATED DEMON
Chapter 1: Prologue- Requiem
The golden sword went deeper into the young Emperor's body, the warm red liquid poured out of his chest and the pain was agonizing. The masked man before him, was stiffed and held the sword's handle with shaking hands. Nothing can be heard but air. Everyone's eyes were focused upon them. Today is the day.
The completion of Zero Requiem. A plan that can change the world into a better place for the sake of everyone.
"L-Lelouch.." Suzaku called out his friend's name as fresh tears flowed from his emerald eyes. He has finally avenged Euphemia, but at the same time, killing his one and only best friend.
''The punishment for what you've done shall be this then..." Lelouch whispered as he leaned on the masked man's shoulder for support. In every second, his energy was wavering and dark rings were visible under his eyes. "You'll live on..always serving as a knight of justice and truth..." He,then, lifted his hand and caressed the right side of the mask. "You'll no longer live your life as Suzaku Kururugi..you shall wear a mask eternally.."
"This geass...I do solemnly accept." Suzaku accepted his punishment, yet he still have tear-filled eyes and released the sword from his majesty's body.
Lelouch stumbled down, flipped over and slid down the ramp, leaving a trail of blood behind him and landed beside his beloved sister, Nunnally.
"Lelouch? Are you..?" Nunnally trailed off when she suddenly saw the small smile on his lips as he awaits for his life's end. As she touched his blood-stained hand, she gasped in utter shock.
She was seeing his memories. Acting as a dictator and his planned death were for the sake of the world she desired in her life. A warm and gentle world. Where people will smile and unite with each other. Tears started to form in her beautiful lavender eyes, slowly streaming down her cheeks.
"You mean..everything you've done until now.." Nunnally moved her brother's cooling hand closer to her "Oh big brother, I love you!" she cried out.
Lelouch was slowly losing consciousness. Blood oozed out of his mouth. "Yes..I destroyed the world..and created a new.." He said softly. Then, he looked up at Nunnally. He couldn't stand his last image of his precious sister will be a sad one. With all his might, he tried to speak a little bit more to her .
"N-Nunnally...don't cry..be happy..." he whisphered gently. "I..I lied to you..I'm sorry.."
She clutched his hand tighter. "I forgive you brother! Just don't die...Please stay with me... I don't wanna be alone.." She begged him.
"Please..remember..." He murmured. Lelouch's eyes felt so heavy and he can't stay awake any more longer. He feels so tired right now..
"No! Don't leave me..stay awake, big brother!" Nunnally cried.
"...I will always love you..so please..smile, okay..?"
"Brother..I..!"
His entire life flashed before his eyes.
"..Goodbye..Nunnally.." He muttered his last word before he finally closed his eyes.
Nunnally screamed in despair for she have lost the person she loved in her entire life. Her beloved older brother is taken away from her, forever. She saw the way his life escaped his body with her own naked eyes. She was wracked by uncontrollable sobs and her whole mind is occupied with deep sorrow. Despite all the crimes he commited and the bitterness of his lies reached her, she still loved him and grieved for his death. Suzaku, on the other hand, felt it as well. He killed his one and only best friend with his own bare hands. As the crowd chants, he stood there, like a brave warrior. But inside, Suzaku was hurting. His mind raced on nothing else but recalling the heartful memories that he and Lelouch had in the time of childhood until the day Zero Requiem was accomplished. Lelouch Vi Britannia's death rejoiced the whole world but broke the hearts of his loved ones, especially Nunnally, the person he loves the most. Just an hour after his assasination, his body was carted away by the royal guards.
Aftermath:
With the demon,gone, an era of peace has reigned the world once again. Zero/Suzaku continued to serve as a knight for Nunnally Vi Britannia, the 100th Empress of the Holy Britannian Empire or Lelouch's successor.
End of prologue..
