Hello, everyone~
Welcome back to Crime & Geass.
This chapter is more credited to my partner in this since my brain went blank majority of the time. x.x
But anyway~
Hope you enjoyed this chapter. Not the best but we both tried. ;o;
Disclaimer: I don't own either Code Geass/Death Note. I mean, why would I be writing fanfiction if I did?
Area Eleven is declared to be in a state of mourning, the Emperor said on the television screen as depressed Britannian workers looked on. They looked suspiciously at the elevens huddled together in the corner of the car.
"Those elevens, they did this."
"Prince Clovis was a fair ruler!" Another Britannian screams out at the Japanese.
Soichiro Yagami swears quietly as he realized he had missed his stop due to watching the announcement. He gets off the train inconspicuously, pulling his coat over his face to avoid the fanatic crowd. It looks like a fight was about to start between the two groups on the train.
He walks through some ruined decrepit slums leading to the barrier between the Britannia-controlled areas and his Tokyo. It was one of the trade agreements after the war. All but Tokyo is now under control of the Emperor and his pawns.
After that long walk from the barrier to the middle of the city, Soichiro stepped into the big building that seemed to be a police station. It was one, but in fact, it was where the Tokyo Federation resides in secret.
"Has he been found?" He yells at the nearest subordinate.
"No sir." The cop replies calmly. She was researching furiously at the computer.
"Damn it." He collapses, exhausted onto the nearest chair. "A murderer is on the loose in Tokyo and Britannia is in a hell hole. If this guy breaks through our barrier to the outside area we are fucked."
"No instances have been found in Britannia yet." She replies without her fingers stopping at the keyboard. "The people of Tokyo are safe from exposure to the outside world, for now."
"Yes, but for how long?" Chief Yagami sighed. "I just want to keep my wife and children safe. Thank god he's only targeting criminals."
A young and average looking male cop enters the room and hands Chief Yagami a mug of hot coffee. He sighs at the Chief's mean glance.
"I'll take over from here, Saori. You take a break." He blushes a little at her.
She smiles in return. "I will, Matsuda. Thank you."
A red glow shines over her pupils as she leaves the room. She picks up her pink cell phone and relays the message outside.
"There are a series of unsolved murders in Tokyo. All of the victims are criminals or citizens in the act of committing a serious crime. 42 convicted criminals and 12 convicted suspects died of heart attacks in a period of eight hours."
Disturbed laughter sounds out from the other end of the phone. "Very well. Continue investigating."
The glow from Saori's pupils fade as the phone call disconnects. She erases the call from her cell phone then glances at it, confused. "What did I just do?"
Click. The cell phone closes as he glances at the floor with a grin but it soon faded away as he saw the girl across from him lying on his bed.
"What are you doing here?" he questioned the long haired girl, remembering not to long ago, he just saw her die.
Ignoring the question, the girl rose her gaze to match his. "Have you enjoyed your gift?"
Shock came across his face for only a split second then that slight grin came back in view. "Of course. It helped me so very much." His tone becomes deadpan serious. "So who are you?"
"You can call me C. C."
She sits up and grabs the cell phone from Lelouch.
"What, what are you doing?"
"Hello? Yes, do you deliver?" She looks up at Lelouch. "You're paying."
She turns back to the phone. "Three pizza mias, two pepperonis and one ham."
"Do I get to choose one?"
"They're all for me." She walked off and Lelouch fumed for a moment, then realizing that her sister was in the other room as he rushed to it.
The damage was already done. "Lelouch who were you talking to?" His younger sister, who was blind and in a wheelchair, asked.
"An annoying person." He mumbled under his breath. He smiles and cheers up his voice. "She is a classmate of ours, Shi Tzu, who will be staying with us for a while."
"I did not say anything about staying here." C.C. whispers irritated.
"You are a liability to my plans, and people are looking for you." Lelouch whispers back firmly.
"Is she your girlfriend, brother?"
"No." They both answer simultaneously and look at each other surprised.
Nunnally giggles. "Brother, can I speak to you alone?"
Lelouch motions for C.C. to leave.
"I think my pizza is here." She takes money from Lelouch's wallet and leaves the room.
"Is it true that your older brother died?" Nunnally touches Lelouch's hand to comfort him.
Lelouch's hand shakes and he chokes his words. "Nunnally. . ."
"I'm sorry brother; it must be hard for you." She grips his hand tight.
"He was a prince. He knew the risks, though it was unfair of him to be assassinated."
Nunnally frowns. "I hope they catch his killer."
"They will, Nunnally."
"I wish it was like before with Suzaku."
The ex-prince flinched as he heard the name. He knew the reality that he was dead from the shot and all he was trying to do was actually protect him. Clenching his fists for a moment, he let a slightly forced smile to his younger sister.
"I wish that too."
"I wonder where he is now. We should find him, it's been a while but he might still recognize us if he sees you."
"We can't… Nunnally, we have to hide our identities."
The ex-princess simply sighed, knowing that it was true. "I'm going to bed now. Goodnight, brother." She rolls away in her wheelchair heading back to her room.
As soon as she left the room, Lelouch went to his room also, as he stared out the window. So many emotions went through his mind as his face grew a scowl.
"I will figure out who's behind this. They will not get away in my plans to destroy the Britannian Empire."
His thoughts were interrupted when a cell phone went ringing in the living room, where it was left. Heading toward that direction, he picked it up and answered it.
"Yes?"
Gasp! A cliffhanger! xD Hopefully it makes you want to read more and, please, review. Any flames will burn all C.C's boxes of empty pizza. :D
