This new piece of the Internet is a collaboration work between myself and my pal KizaruBoss1. Give him your thanks for his efforts. Me too of course.
We don't own Code Geass or the Digimon franchise. I wish I would, but I don't. So I'm not getting paid for this. And neither is my pal. But reviews are nice.
Digital Chronicles - Book 1: Future Shift
-Prologue
? Time: Unknown Location
Deep within the highest plane in the Digital World three of the four Harmonious Ones, a group of Mega digimons so powerful they were considered Gods, were in the most deepest of conversation. The decision that would be taken that day would forever change the fate of both the Digital world and the Real World as a whole, but only few would know of it.
The meeting place was a dimension of pure blackness, a circle of light containing a map of the Digital World the only illuminated point. Three massive figures stood above it, the only ones in the otherwise deserted place.
Inside their private domain Baihumon, a massive white tiger digimon, stood near the west end of the encirclement, the north end hosting a two-headed equally massive digimon based on a tortoise carrying a tree, Ebonwumon. And the organizer of this meeting, Zhuqiaomon, sharing the same size of his brethren and resembling the mythical Phoenix, stood at the south end. They were missing one crucial member, the blue dragon Azulongmon, but the red Phoenix decided this secret meeting was better off without him.
"Zhuqiaomon! What is the meaning of this! Why have you summoned us here?" Baihumon bellowed.
"Indeed mate." "We have our quadrants to watch over ya know." Ebonwumon said with both heads speaking in synch, each one speaking with a different voice but both featuring a Scottish accent.
Zhuqiaomon was silent as he tried to piece the right words together, this plan was bold to say the least and he needed to ensure the cooperation of his brethrens. However he also needed to be quick: Azulongmon was currently in charge of making sure the original Eight Chosen Digimons were ready for their human partners, but he will not be occupied forever. At least after a few minutes he spoke.
"My Brethrens, I come out and say this: the original Eight are not enough." He spoke grimly. "I feel that in the coming human years a calamity greater than what's approaching us now will come forth."
"Not enough?" Ebonwumon asked in shock. "That's crazy, what kind of threat would be appropriate for MORE children to face?"
"I assume you mean what this 'Geass Order' is eventually planning?" Baihumon pondered, as he had an inkling as what his brother was talking about.
"Indeed Baihumon, it is the heart and final goal of this 'Geass Order' that is the subject of this matter." He answered.
"Geass Order?" "Ahh, so that's what this is about." The black Turtle nodded. "But do we need to worry about this now lads?" "I estimate that they'll make their move not before another 6-7 years of the Human World at best." "We have all the time in the world to stop them."
"No we don't Ebonwumon, it is best we deal with this problem before it comes back to bite us later." The red Phoenix suggested.
"So you suggest we cheat destiny and select more Chosen Children by summoning back the Lost Powers? Azulongmon will most certainly disapprove of this, but I admit this may be the best choice." The white Tiger agreed. "Who will be chosen to answer the call? We can't choose a random."
"Worry not: I have observed the world of the humans and I believe I found three potential children. I have already made arrangements with Gennai regarding them: by offering part of our powers he can craft additional Digivices and Crests for them in time for the future events. Even if such an act will leave us weakened for some time, it's necessary to do it." Zhuqiaomon replied. "For the future of our world."
Two screens materialized between them. The first screen showed a black-haired child playing around with an ashen haired little girl in a garden. The second screen showed a brown-haired child waving a shinai around. Ebonwumon and Baihumon observed the children with scrutiny, their supernatural sense allowing them to see to the depths of the children's souls. Every detail was important, and the arrangements must be perfect if they want to succeed.
"I sense great potential in this one." The white Tiger conceded eyeing the brown-haired child. "I approve of your choice Zhuqiaomon."
"Indeed." Ebonwumon agreed, his two heads fixated on the two children playing in the garden. "Many opportunities to be mislead, but a force to be reckoned with if raised properly. This will be interesting."
"Who will be their partners? Ordinary digimons will not suffice." Baihumon questioned. "Do you intend to create them like the rest were? This would cost us even more power."
"No, we can't afford to be weakened further, not with the Millennium Kingdom only waiting for a chance to seize our territories." He rejected the proposal.
A new screen appeared, showing two Digieggs, one white and purple and one black and yellow. They were tied and restrained by numerous strings of fractal code, as if they were bombs ready to explode at the minimal stimulus. "If you intend to recreate a Legend, you have to start with a Prototype."
Both Baihumon and Ebonwumon nearly took a step back, eyes widening in recognition. "That's-! I see you're very serious about this Zhuqiaomon." The white Tiger sharply said to his brother.
"You're aware what those like them are capable of. This is not something that should be handled carelessly." "And yet this is indeed a grave situation. So you have my approval. Barely." "What of the third? Of those ones we only have two."
"Already thought of that. Amusing enough, Azulongmon will help us with it, even if unknowingly." The red Phoenix chuckled. "One of the Deva in his service recently fell in battle, but he is so busy he didn't even make the effort to collect his Digiegg back. So I did it in his stead: such an Holy digimon is a perfect candidate."
"Which Deva?" Baihumon asked. Zhuqiaomon told them. "Yes, it is fine for me."
"Same here. " Ebonwumon said. "Very well, at this point we can only pray to Fanglongmon that this works."
"Indeed my brethren, indeed." Zhuqiaomon replied gravely.
Early Morning: Aries Villa
Lelouch breathed a sigh of relief as he sat on the sofa, one hand coming up to his forehead to wipe off the sweat. "I love them both." He said surly, images of his sisters Nunnally and Euphemia coming up in his mind. "But I wish they would stop trying putting me in a dress."
The day began like many other, with Euphemia coming over to play together with Cornelia while his mother Marianne excused herself to continue etiquette lessons with the daughter of a family friend, Anya or something. The three of them decided to play in the garden and make flower crowns.
Until Euphemia described with great enthusiasm to Nunnally a gorgeous dress she saw the day before. The two started arguing who would be better with it, until Nunnally spoke the dreadful words.
"I'm sure Big Brother would look the best in it."
He didn't rest to hear the answer, he just jumped up and ran away, his pathetic physical abilities being augmented by sheer fear. Now here he was, inside his mother's study and hopefully a safe heaven from his sisters.
"So thirsty..." He groaned, his throat parched. He took a glass jug full of water and poured some in a cup.
He just finished drinking when he noticed a blue light coming from his mother's computer. "Strange. It should be turned off." Curiosity was abound at his age, so he got closer to take a better look. He wasn't an expert, but under prompting from Schneizel he started taking lessons in computer programming: his elder brother said that it was a great method to train the mind, almost like chess.
What he saw made him raise his eyebrows in confusion: lots and lots of numbers passed through the screen scrolling too fast for his eyes to catch with.
"Big Brother?" He heard from behind, making him turn around. Nunnally was here, looking with curiosity both at him and the screen.
"Nunnally? When did you get here?" He asked.
"Right now." She answered innocently. "Big Brother? What's happening to Mother's computer? Is he sick?"
"Nunnally, computers don't get sick." He turned back to the screen. "I'm not su-!"
He was interrupted when the stream of numbers suddenly disappeared and the screen changed, showing something completely different.
A great orange dinosaur with a brown horned helmet covering his skull was battling it out against a green parrot monster in the midst of an urban street. It was a scene straight out from a fantasy film. As both the siblings were watching this strange battle with baited breaths the screen glitched.
SAVE_US_CHOSEN_ONES
SAVE_US_CHOSEN_ONES
SAVE_US_CHOSEN_ONES
SAVE_US_CHOSEN_ONES
SAVE_US_CHOSEN_ONES
Those strange words passed on the screen at random intervals, repeating themselves over and over again.
SAVE_US_CHOSEN_ONES
SAVE_US_LELOUCH
SAVE_US_NUNNALLY
SAVE_US_SUZAKU
SAVE_US_CHOSEN_ONES
For a second, Lelouch thought he saw his and his sister's names on the screen, but his attention was diverted as the dinosaur got laid out by a lightning strike fired by the parrot.
"Big Brother!" Nunnally cried. "The dino isn't moving! Is he hurt? Will he be alright?"
It seemed strange for a four year old to worrying about a big mean-looking dinosaur, but in truth all the stuffed animals of Nunnally were modelled either after bunnies or dinosaurs. Lelouch, knowing this was just a video, wasn't exactly worried, but he too wanted the dino to win: he was a boy after all, and in his eyes dinosaurs were better than birds. "He will Nunnally. Have hope." He reassured her.
Almost as if it was summoned by his words the screen changed to show a boy around his age with big bushy brown hair holding a little girl in his arms. The boy took a whistle from the little girl's hand and blew it with all his strength. Hearing it the orange dinosaur stood up again and, roaring in defiance, it fired fire from his mouth hitting the parrot dead on. At that the glitches intensified, more names appearing too fast for his eyes to follow, even if he could still make out the words "SAVE US" among them, until the screen became completely white before the computer shut down.
'What was that?' Lelouch wondered. 'Mother's computer just decided to start by itself and play a random video before powering down again? Very unlikely. A virus? No virus can do that, but maybe a new version...'
"Big Brother." His sister's voice interrupted his train of thoughts. "What happened? Is the dino okay? Did he win?"
"Yes, don't worry." He patted her head to reassure her. "I'm sure he's okay." Hearing Euphemia's voice calling for them from outside he took Nunnally's hand. "Come, we made Euphy wait long enough."
With that Lelouch vi Britannia and Nunnally vi Britannia left the room, completely unaware that moment would change their entire future, and the future of the entire world.
To the other side of the planet a Japanese boy of Lelouch's age was witnessing the same thing on his father's computer after waking up during the night to relieve himself.
To answer some questions:
1) This series will be divided into books, each one a story of his own.
2) The chapters may look short compared to some monster authors who spawn chapters of 10000-12000 words one after the other. This is my and KizaruBoss1's style. To compensate, we will release a lot of chapters.
3) This is a fusion, not a crossover.
We will try to answer all your questions to the best of our abilities. Now then...
