A/N: I couldn't help it!! I admit, I watch way too much Code Geass! So the thought came to me, what if my brother and I mess up the series and add our own characters. Well, in the end we added three newbies. I hope this series turns out alright. I'm starting my fanfic a little in the middle of the first season with Euphemia and Cornelia. The first part of the chapter takes place in some added material. Don't worry, ((or maybe you should)) I'm still writing Hell Bound Pasts.
Please R/R and enjoy! ^^
CO-A/N: Disclaimers: We Don't own the Code Geass series in any way, it belongs to its owners and we're just doing a fanfic.
((A/N: No matter how much we really want to own it. TT_TT))
"Yo, Alex, how do you feel now that we'll be with Euphie and . . . Her . . . In Area 11?" Kali asked looking out the window of their private jet plane waiting for her older brother to make his move.
Alexander was looking at the chess board, trying to not think about Cornelia since he never saw eye to eye with her on dealing with the rabble in Japan. Yes, he still saw Area 11 as Japan, but he never wanted to see it as his favorite siblings, Lelouch and Nunnally were reported dead when Britannia declared war on the country and he blamed both sides for their deaths.
Kali looked to her older brother who was apparently lost in thought. "Yo, Alex?" No response. "YO! NISAMA!!!"
Alex got out of his train of thought and looked at his sister. "Oh, is it my move?"
"No, I just wanted to see how loud I had to scream to wake you out of La-La Land Nisan. All for no damn reason. YES IT'S YOUR MOVE!!" she exclaimed, "Good Jebus yo! How long do I have to wait for you? Besides, Japan is a whole new world as Disney wants us to see it. Could you take your face off and show a little excitement. Maybe Lelouch and Nunnally made it through the battle and it was all a ruse." Kali shrugged and took a sip of her ice tea. She was bored out of her mind. The sooner the plane landed, the better.
Alex moved his white bishop and placed it on C4, "Checkmate."
"Hmmm. . . Two to one in your favor. I guess you win again my dear brother. I like playing Euphie though. She makes me feel talented," she smirked and took another sip as she knocked over her black king, "But a King can't beat a Goddess, Alexander."
"We are coming in for a landing, please remain seated until the vessel comes to a complete stop," a voice announced over the PA.
Kali rolled her eyes, "Nah, I think I'll get up. I've always wanted to jump out of a plane without a parachute. That and want to see if a Knightmare can swim," she sighed sarcastically.
Alex just shook his head at her remarks, she was always like this ever since she learned how to talk. "I really wish Schniezel had chosen someone else to set up the defenses in Area 11 instead of me, sure I'm good with establishing defenses but I can't stand Cornelia."
"Who can?" Kali asked in her normal laid back tone, "Talking to her is like looking dead at a bomb reaching the end of it's timer. She's just waiting to blow. I warn ya though, I'll be spending quite a bit of time with Euphemia. It's not that I don't like you or anything, I just find Lloyd a little, oh what's the word, obnoxious. He needs to figure out what's the difference between a human and a microwave. It's sad really. I don't know if my brother will still be humanoid when he returns at the end of the day." She looked out the window some more as the scenery tilted into a steep slope. "Oh, and I'll be finishing school here in Japan. Remember the Ashfords? I'm already enrolled to enter the school. I'm not looking forward to it, but hell, it's better than dresses and all the pink Euphie likes."
Alex sighed, his sister loved to talk, "Just don't get yourself killed Kali," he sighed leaning back in his seat. He felt the wheels hit the ground and the plane slowly came to a halt. He got up slowly while his little sister jumped up and ran off the plane.
"EUPHIE!!!" she shouted as she ran up to her older half sister.
"KALI!!!" the pink haired sub-viceroy exclaimed. The two girls hugged as Alex stepped off the plane. He noticed how unalike they were. Kali in a black tee shirt with a long sleeve netting shirt underneath and black jeans, while Euphemia wore her usual pretty pink princess dress.
"Alex," Cornelia said with tension in her voice.
"Cornelia," Alex said similarly.
Cornelia smirked slightly, "Lloyd is in the lab as usual. Do you need an escort?"
"No I don't my elder sister," he said flatly than walked off in the direction that was obviously the way to Lloyd's work shop.
Alex entered the lab and automatically laid his eyes on an impressive Knightmare frame. It's coloring was white and gold. It looked formidable.
"Ah, if it isn't our engineering prince!" a voice behind Alex exclaimed.
Alex turned, "Hello Lloyd. I take it this is the Lancelot."
"That's right. The infamous Lancelot that is manned by the impressive Suzaku Kururugi," Lloyd said in a voice that could've been considered bragging, "It's a masterpiece if I do say so myself."
Alex looked at the Knightmare and began to having an idea for his own personal Knightmare that he was building himself. "Lloyd, do you mind if I borrow a copy of the Lancelot's blueprints, I think I could incorporate some of its functions into my own Knightmare."
"Why not, at least Lancelot won't be the only Knightmare that wasn't created by my methods," Lloyd said as he lead the prince to the computer that held the data that he needed. "So, have your parents decided for a woman for you to marry Alex?" Lloyd asked him as he began making a copy of the plans.
"My mother wants me to marry someone yes, but she won't tell me who she is yet until the trouble in Area 11 has been stabilized," he told him as he was irritated that he was being forced by his parents to marry a woman he never knew.
"Ah, I take it you disagree with arranged marriages, despite the advantages it has for someone of your position."
"You could say that, my first love is my work on my own Knightmare. After that, my family comes before anything else."
"And yet you and Cornelia can't get along with each other over anything such as a plan of attack and methods to slow down the terrorist groups, such as that Zero character."
"The terrorists planned their escape routes well by using areas that require public transportation, it would be disastrous if we try to block those escape routes both economically and politically."
"I see that you have been thinking about those terrorist groups on your way here, and yet you don't come here with an armed escort to protect yourself or your sister."
"As long as I don't do anything to the people Lloyd, they shouldn't give a damn about me. Besides, I'm touring Ashford Academy tomorrow while my sister is taking her classes there just to make sure that it is safe for her."
Lloyd looked to Alex, "Are you going to go under cover or announce that you're part of the royal family? If I'm not mistaken, our dear Princess Kali doesn't like attention under those kind of circumstances."
"Under an alias. Even if we are away from the homeland, we still have enemies and I want my little sister to be safe from any kind of harm." Alex laughed a bit at the idea of his sister attending the school, "I'd hate to see her get angry at the principle just because of the school uniform that she has to wear."
"Yes, your sister is quite the opposite from most of the other princesses in the royal family, wearing clothes that wouldn't even fit a prince's tastes." Lloyd looked at Alex and did notice that the prince was wearing the same exact clothes as he was. "My apologies if that was out of turn," he added in his casual tone as he didn't want Cécile to get on his case for his bluntness.
"Not really, I prefer honesty. And I'm the only other person besides my older brother interested in your current projects on Knightmare frames," Alex told him, knowing that Cécile did act like Lloyd's conscious since he treated everything as a part to his machines, even the pilots.
"Well that's nice to know, but Cécile would try scolding me for such a comment about you and your sister," he told him as he took the copy disk out of the computer and handed it to the prince. "I should warn you though, Lancelot still has a couple of minor flaws that could be transferred to your Knightmare and increase potential dangers for you."
"I would rather be killed in an accident, then by an assassin hired by one of my siblings," Alex said as he left for his office to try and incorporate the designs of Lancelot into his custom Knightmare.
"So what do you plan to do now that you're in Area 11 Kali?" Euphemia asked her half sister as they drank ice tea in the garden.
"I'm going to finish my school years here. I'm enrolled in Ashford Academy. I just hope a riot doesn't start. I may make an alias just to be sure. You know?" Kali sighed looking out at the beautiful colors of the flowers, "Just like Lady Marianne's. All the other wives were so jealous of her garden. It was so beautiful."
Euphie nodded as she too looked out at the landscape, "Remember how Nunnally, you, and I would drag Alex and Lelouch outside to play. They weren't very fond of the outdoors, were they? They never stopped playing chess against each other, despite Alex losing to him?" She giggled slightly covering her mouth.
"Yeah, they were glued to that chess board. Aren't brothers so impossible?" Kali sighed. Both nodded in agreement, then laughed about the old times that they spent together with Lelouch and Nunnally.
"They're still out there," Kali said firmly as she looked away from the garden and out over the side of the roof to the Tokyo settlement so far below, "I just can feel it. Lelouch was always reserved. Always with a back up plan. Why would this be any different?"
Euphie looked at her black haired half sister, "If they are out there, I just hope they're safe."
"They are. I'm sure of it. They're out there somewhere, as safe from the emperor as they can be. As long as Brittania doesn't know they exist, there is no way they can be any safer," Kali murmured then took another sip.
~The next day~
'I hate this flipping skirt! That's it! I'm suing! This is soft-core porn everyday for the teachers and the boys!' Kali thought angrily as she tried to pull the skirt down. Luckily she wasn't at school yet. She was in her personal room before leaving to Ashford Academy.
"That's it! I don't give a shit about the damn school rules!!! I'm wearing jeans!!!" she shouted with a venomous glare at the uniform.
~In another room~
"I knew she was going to hate the uniform, but she wanted to go to that school," Alex said to himself as he was finishing up his blueprints for his own custom Knightmare that he had been working on all day and night.
~Back in Kali's room~
'Oooh! But if I wear jeans, that'll cause a domestic uproar. Damn Ashfords! There was always something wrong with that family. Leggings!! The solution to every skirt problem! Hah! Take that Brittanian slime! Sexist pigs! Can't even wear simple pants! Curse you school rules! Who came up with that shit anyway!?' she thought putting black leggings on under the horrifyingly high skirt. Let the teachers complain. No eye candy for them from this lil' girl!
"Kali, time to go to your school!" Alex shouted to his sister.
"You mean the penitentiary! Or should I call it the strip club!?" she called back as she ran out her door with her bag. For once, her hair was pulled back in an extremely long ponytail that reached the back of her knees. She ran up to Alex, "Like the modifications?"
"Don't ask me that, I'm your brother not your boyfriend."
"Ookay . . . Bad mental image. Forget I said anything, k?"
"Yes, lets leave it be," Alex answered her as he walked out the door to escort his sister to her school, and to begin his analyzing of it as well to make sure his sister would be safe there.
Kali sighed, "What's next? Having the Emperor himself walk me to every class? You're an embarrassment sometimes."
"I do it to make sure your safe from any kind of harm, whether it be from weapons or other people."
"What are you going to do next? Put me in a bubble? Oh, wait, I'm already in one. Never mind!"
Alex ignored the comment as he made sure he had his firearm on him, just incase someone tried to do anything on their way to the school. "I heard that you could stay in dorms at the school if you want to."
"Yeah, and all the girls share a shower room . . . I prefer my own bed and bath, thank you very much. I was always one for privacy. Don't tell me you're going leave me in that school day and night! I'll have to pelt you with my air soft gun!"
"It was just a thought so that you wouldn't have to deal with me calling you to get ready everyday and you wouldn't have to leave the school grounds that much."
Kali's eye twitched slightly as she walked behind Alex, "I'd rather wear Euphie's dresses."
"Okay," Alex said ending the discussion as they walked onto the train. The two sat as far away from the other passengers as they could. Even though Kali had complained about being in a social bubble, she didn't really like people from the outside anyway so it didn't change anything.
The train stopped at the station near the academy and the siblings walked off the train. They walked a ways in silence. Sometimes with Kali make bird calls behind Alex or just, being random, talked to the sidewalk as the strolled along.
"Why are you coming along anyway?" Kali suddenly asked.
"Are you talking to me or your feet?" Alex asked not bothering to turn around.
Kali rolled her eyes, "No, to the pidgin on the fence- OF COURSE YOU, YA DUMB ASS!"
"Just to make sure that you'll be safe there by analyzing all of the areas on the campus. And to make sure that I know every single boy that most of the girls have a crush on so that I know who to kill if you like them," he told her.
"Nice to know ya trust me. I might just stay in the dorms after all. You're starting to worry me. I feel like I've got a stalker now. Even creepier is that he's my brother!" she snapped.
"Well, if you stay at the dorms, I won't have to worry about you so much until I come and visit. And it would be so much quieter when I work on my new Knightmare."
"No touchy mine! Or I'll chop your hands off! That's my project, so don't go stealing my weapon designs!" she hissed. Alex simply rolled his eyes. He would've said something if it wasn't for the fact that they had entered school campus. Kali glanced at her homeroom paper.
"Now where the hell do I go?" she sighed.
"Have fun sis, I'm going to scout out the area so that I can come up with escape routes for you incase of a terrorist attack," Alex said as he left and waved her goodbye towards the field.
"Gee, you're a big help asshole!" she shouted after him. She turned to go and get lost for an excuse (Not to mention that she already had no idea where in the hell to go, but what difference would it make if she somehow managed to fall off the face of the earth. NONE!) when she suddenly bumped into someone.
"Damn, I am glad that I wore leggings today. If I didn't, I'd be putting on a show!" she growled after falling to the ground.
"Oh! I'm sorry. I wasn't looking where I was going," a high, annoying voice exclaimed. Kali looked up to see a girl with orange hair on the ground in front of her.
Kali blinked mutely a few times. 'A . . . . . . prep . . . . . Oh God.'
The girl looked at her for a minute, "Are you new? I don't remember seeing your face before. Are you in the middle school?"
Kali's eye twitched, "I'm a high schooler Miss Klutz. Do you know where this classroom is?" She handed her schedule to the orange haired girl.
The girl looked at the paper and her eyes widened, "We're in the same class!" she looked to Kali, "I'm Shirley. Who are you?"
"I'm Sherlock Holmes," Kali said sarcastically, "No, really I'm Lilith Cummings. I'm a transfer student from Brittania."
Shirley smiled, "It's nice to meet you! Come, I'll show you the way."
'Oh my Lord! I'm in the world of empty headed imbeciles! I can already feel it! My IQ is dropping by the second!! ALEX!!! I WANNA GO HOME!!!'
