In the Vermillion Forbidden City, the High Eunuchs and Empress Tianzi were gathered watching a television. The second Special Administrated Zone of Japan by Princess Nunnally vi Britannia. It was set to begin any moment and the big question was what Zero would do.
"So, do you think Zero will actually go through with supporting the Special Administrated Zone?" asked Xia Wang.
"He has publicly announced he would but, after what happened last time I would not be surprised if he tried to kill the princess." answered Zhao Hao.
"If it works I think he should support it." added Tianzi.
"Frankly, I don't see how he can support it. We might have to rethink our support of the Black Knights." said Cai Lishi ignoring the empress.
"Agreed. We cannot allow Britannia to expand it's influence in the Far East." said Huang Qian.
"If so, then why did he ask for asylum?" asked Cheng Zhong.
"He must be planning something big." answered Xiang Sheng.
"We will see what occurs here." said Tong Lun.
We are coming live from the Special Administrated Zone of Japan. Zero has brought a million people here.
"So far Zero hasn't arrived." noted Zhao Hao as Nunnally made her speech.
"I don't know but, if he fails to appear at all we might have to trend a fine line with our support to the Black Knights." said Xiang Sheng.
"There is his!" called Tianzi as Zero appeared on the screen and began talking to Suzaku.
"Zero is quite the philosopher." said Huang Qian.
"That is irrelevant. All that matters is how he handles this situation." said Cheng Zhong as suddenly smoke appeared.
"What's going on?" asked Tianzi worried as the smoke disappeared.
"There's a million Zero!" exclaimed Xia Wang.
The Eunuchs and Tianzi waited to see how the Britannians would react. After several tense minutes, Suzaku gave the order to let them go.
"Well, it appears the Black Knights were being coming here. It seems things will be interesting." said Tong Lun.
"Kaguya, I can't wait to see you again." said Tianzi to herself.
In a private room of the church, Tianzi had finished putting her dress on and was sitting down, staring at her veil. From what she could grasp, girls usually adored their wedding day but, she was not among them. Suddenly, she heard a knock on the door.
"Um...come in." said Tianzi.
"Hello your highness! I came to greet you on your big day!" cried Kaguya entering the room.
"I'm glad you came Kaguya. You were the person I wanted here more than anyone." said Tianzi.
"So, are you excited for your big day?" asked Kaguya.
"Not really." answered Tianzi.
"Don't worry Tianzi. It's common for people to get cold feet on their wedding day." replied Kaguya.
"I'm really don't want to be married." confessed Tianzi.
"That does make sense. It's hard to marry someone you can't love." said Kaguya.
"I want to leave the Forbidden City but, if I got to Britannia, then I'd be a prisoner there." sighed Tianzi.
"Yes you would be." said Kaguya sadly.
"I don't want to marry the Britannian prince." replied Tianzi as tears forming in her eyes.
"Don't cry your highness." said Kaguya wiping the tears out of her eyes, "Everything will be okay."
"But-but, I don't see how." said Tianzi choking up.
"I'm not sure but, I know it will." replied Kaguya.
"Do you really think so?" asked Tianzi.
"I'm certain Master Zero will find a way to stop this marriage." answered Kaguya.
"I hope so." said Tianzi.
"This is so wrong." sighed Kaguya.
"Kaguya, thank you for your support." replied Tianzi.
"Of course your highness. You're my friend and I will always support you." said Kaguya.
"Is that what friends do?" asked Tianzi.
"Yes it is Tianzi." answered Kaguya grabbing her hands.
"Kaguya..." said Tianzi amazed.
"Look your highness, I know this will end one way or another." replied Kaguya.
"I'm grateful for that but, please don't try put yourself in danger." said Tianzi.
"Your highness..." stammered Kaguya.
"Kaguya, you're Japanese and I don't want anything to happen to you." explained Tianzi.
"You truly are a grand monarch Tianzi." said Kaguya.
"What do you mean?" asked Tianzi.
"Looking out for your friend when you're being sold to Britannia, that is truly admirable." explained Kaguya.
"Thank you." said Tianzi blushing.
"That's why this wedding is awful." said Kaguya angrily.
"I am okay with this." replied Tianzi.
"You can't be!" cried Kaguya.
"I am. Please." said Tianzi.
"Are...are you sure?" asked Kaguya.
"Yes. I am." answered Tianzi.
"Well, then I guess that I will go and prepare for the wedding." said Kaguya who turned around.
"Kaguya, I hope you'll see before I leave." said Tianzi.
"No problem your highness. I will see you after the wedding." replied Kaguya as she walked away.
"Okay Kaguya." said Tianzi as the Japanese girl left.
Tianzi couldn't remember a time that was more terrifying than right now. She was currently sitting on her bed holding her legs against her chest. She had been kidnapped by Zero at her wedding and a prisoner of the Black Knights who were being attacked.
"Your highness, are you okay?" asked Kaguya worried.
"I'm scared Kaguya." answered Tianzi.
"Don't worry Tianzi. Everything will be okay. I promise it." replied Kaguya.
"I don't want this!" cried Tianzi.
"Please calm down your highness." said Kaguya.
"Make it all go away!" cried Tianzi.
"I can't." said Kaguya sadly.
"Save me Xingke." said Tianzi.
"Zero is the one who saved you." said Kaguya.
"He put a gun to my head." replied Tianzi.
"I know and I will talk to him about that but, he did end your wedding." said Kaguya.
"Yes but, he kidnapped me." said Tianzi.
"He ended your wedding like you wanted." reasoned Kaguya.
"That's now how I wanted it to end." replied Tianzi shaking her head.
"It's not exactly how I planned it." said Kaguya.
"I just want to be with Xingke." said Tianzi.
"Xingke and his faction crashed the wedding first with a coup." noted Kaguya.
"What do you mean?" asked Tianzi.
"Yes Zero kidnapped you but, Xingke and faction crashed the wedding first staging a coup." explained Kaguya.
"He was trying to rescue me not kidnap me." said Tianzi.
"Xingke is fighting against us. He has captured our ace Kallen Kozuki." replied Kaguya.
"Like Zero kidnapped me." noted Tianzi worried.
"Let's change the subject." replied Kaguya, "I know that you're afraid but, down here you're safe."
"Are you sure?" asked Tianzi.
"Yes. This room is soundproof, as you can tell, and because it's so well protected you're safe here." answered Kaguya consoling her.
"I hope Xingke is okay." said Tianzi.
"I'm sure he will be." said Kaguya.
"He rebelled against the High Eunuchs." replied Tianzi worried.
"I know it's bad but, he'll find a way." said Kaguya, "Betraying us could be how."
"I really hope you're right." said Tianzi scared.
"Let's change the subject again." proposed Kaguya, "Things are getting upsetting."
"What do you want to talk about?" asked Tianzi.
"The outside world." answered Kaguya.
"Okay." said Tianzi feeling slightly better.
"Tokyo was such a beautiful city before the Britannian invasion. It's still nice today but, it's too Britannian. Once we liberate Japan we'll return the Japanese culture to the city." said Kaguya.
"That sounds so nice." replied Tianzi.
"Oh yes. We'll also return Mt. Fuji as well." continued Kaguya.
"That's a mine for Sakuradite now." said Tianzi thinking back to her tutor.
"Unfortunately it is. Luckily, the NAC, aka Kyoto Group, controlled all Sakuradite mining so we were able to use our wealth to fund resistance groups. The biggest group we supported were the Japan Liberation Front as well as other groups who proved their were able to hold their own against Britannia. The last group we funded were the Black Knights during the Black Rebellion." explained Kaguya.
"Then they were executed." added Tianzi sadly.
"Don't worry your highness, you'll be fine." said Kaguya.
"I ho...hope so." sniffled Tianzi as an explosion rocked the ship.
"I will protect you." said Kaguya.
"Thank you." replied Tianzi.
Empress Tianzi walked the halls of the Forbidden City toward the main hall. Once she entered it she walked to the Dragon Throne but, couldn't bring herself to climb and sit on it.
"Hello Tianzi, are you going to sit down?" asked Kaguya entering the throne room.
"I'm...not sure." answered Tianzi honestly.
"You went to the outside world." noted Kaguya.
"But, now I'm back in the Forbidden City." sighed Tianzi.
"Now that the Eunuchs are dead you can leave anytime you want." replied Kaguya.
"I guess so." said Tianzi.
"A whole new world is opened up to you now!" exclaimed Kaguya.
"That's true." replied Tianzi smiling.
"So, go sit on your throne." said Kaguya.
"I...can't." said Tianzi.
"Why?" asked Kaguya.
"I don't want to go back." answered Tianzi.
"You won't. The High Eunuchs are dead and the new United States of China will be much better than the old." said Kaguya.
"I don't know the first thing about politics." said Tianzi sadly.
"Don't worry your highness, this new China has a lot of overhaul so you can start from the beginning." noted Kaguya.
"That does make sense." realized Tianzi.
"Exactly. For example, the Chinese Federation has splintered into many factions." explained Kaguya.
"That's true." said Tianzi.
"Your country how has it's own constitution." noted Kaguya.
"That's true." replied Tianzi.
"The new United States of China is nothing like the old Chinese Federation." said Kaguya.
"She's right!" declared Zero entering the room with Xingke.
"Master Zero!" cried Kaguya.
"Xingke!" cried Tianzi happily.
"Hello your majesty." replied Xingke.
"What Lady Kaguya said is true; the new country is a new revolutionary country with rights and improvements over the reactionary Chinese Federation." said Zero, "You are no longer a prisoner, you are back in your position as Empress."
"You are freed empress and I will always protect you." added Xingke, "I will always be with you."
"Right." said Tianzi smiling who carefully ascended her throne.
"Tianzi, for the first time since I've known you, this is the first time I've seen you truly happy." said Kaguya to herself with a smile.
