Well happy Easter to everyone reading this, as an Easter gift I present the 3rd installment of 'World of Geass' 1. "Words like these are things said aloud." 2. 'Words like these are thoughts.' 3. "Words like these are sound effects." 4. Words like these are just narration. I'm trying to make this as canon as I can, but since Code Geass R2 ended the series so tightly, it's a bit hard. Therefore the epilogue in R2 didn't happen here, because it makes the story even harder to write. This story was inspired by many others and so I would like to praise them here. This is a test run to see how far my writing skills can get me, if people like it I'll continue, if not I'll retry it next time. In all fairness I'm expecting people to flame me after reading because after I read this over I had to make about 30 changes to make it better. Oh and by the way this contains spoilers up to the end of R2, don't read if you don't want to know. I have a problem with character focus and tend to focus on some characters on one chapter and others in another. This chapter contains a lot of science and history, but is also essential to my plot. I'm going to be twisting up history a bit to fit with the storyline of Code Geass and also I'll be bending some scientific theories. Well that's that, Enjoy! DISCLAIMER : I do not own Code Geass in any way (so stop trying to sue me)
World Of Geass
Turn Three - The Two Kings
2019 a.t.b
Atlantic Ocean - Battle Cruiser Hitonama- Command Center
The former 2nd Prince of the Holy Empire of Brittania, Schneizel El Brittania, was not a happy man or at least not anymore.
It was hard to believe that what was once one of the most powerful men in the world was now a loyal slave to none other than Zero, whom he had opposed in the past.
Schneizel was many things, a strategic mastermind, an unmatchable politician, but a free man he was not. Now he spent his days as Zero's top political advisor and assistant.
The UFN were skeptical about allowing him to join, but decided that it would be safer if the only man in the world who was known to have rivaled the Demon Emperor was on their side.
To the people of UFN allied countries, he was known as the King of Opposition. He was viewed as a brilliant man who opposed Zero, opposed Charles Di Brittania and even challenged Leloouch.
However, it was obvious to those around him that the Schneizel they once knew no longer existed. Lelouch's Geass had downgraded him into a faithful servant of Zero, but perhaps that was a good thing.
Without Lelouch, there was no one who could stop him if he ever gained power, but being completely loyal to Zero meant that he was no longer a threat to anyone or at least that's what everyone thought.
"Lord Schneizel, our advance scouts have come in contact with a group claiming to be survivors from an accident in one of the atlantic sakuradite mines." reported Kanon Maldini, Schneizel's direct subordinate.
Schneizel raised his head and stared at Kanon with emotionless eyes that showed the void in his heart.
Kanon took this as a gesture to continue, "Our scouts have retrieved them and are heading back towards the Hitonama."
The Hitonamawas a japanese battle cruiser with a similiar design to the Avalon. It had been granted to Schneizel by the UFN to help him on his many political journeys.
While the Hitonama couldn't offer the luxury that the Avalon did, it more than made up for it with it's unsurpassable firepower. Twin Hadron Cannons on each side of the ship and a Raikou Blaster as a main cannon gave the Hitonama it's nickname as Damocles' Son.
"I see, how long will it be until we arrive in Greenland?" Schneizel asked, apperantly uninterested in the latest developement.
"It will at least be another three to four hours." Kanon said without looking at Schneizel.
It pained Kanon to see the man he respected the most as a slave to Zero. He believed that Schneizel was the rightful ruler of this world and blamed Lelouch for doing this to his master.
The doors slid open to allow a UFN soldier to enter, the man saluted once before Schneizel and again before Kanon.
It was obvious that this man was once a Brittanian as he still bowed to Kanon, even though he had long since lost his title as an earl of nobility and held no high rank in the UFN.
"Lord Schneizel, our scouts have returned with a group of survivors, they have requested an audience with you." the man said displaying disgust in the last few words.
"Hm...an audience with me?" Schneizel asked raising his eyebrow in a somewhat uncaring manner.
"That's right my lord, shall I temporarily imprison them or throw them off the ship?" the man said.
"No, that won't be necessary Major Klaustin. Congratulations by the way, I recieved word that your son has been accepted into the Four Holy Blades." Schneizel said in an artificial, unimpressed sort of way.
Klaustin didn't notice however and wore a shocked, happy expression on his face. "Thank you, my lord."
Schneizel got up and walked towards the hall wiping the happines away from Klaustin's face.
"My lord, you aren't actually considering meeting with those survivors are you?" Klaustin asked with such shock in his voice.
"As a matter of fact I am." Schneizel stated plainly and left with Kanon on his tail.
Atlantic Ocean - Battle Cruiser Hitonama - Meeting Room
Three individuals dressed in the uniforms of UFN individuals stood waiting in the meeting room.
"Man, they could 'ave offered us some drinks or something, next time I see those bastards I'm gonna give 'em some lessons on how to treat guests." the tallest of them sneered.
"Now, now Magellan, they've been kind enough to give us a lift here already." said a man sitting cross-legged while reading a book.
"Um...brother, won't Novis get mad at us for doing this?" the shortest one asked.
"Wel how else does he expect us to go to Ethereal?" Lelouch said mockingly.
"Besides he stole a submarine from those terrorists last week." Lelouch continued after seeing Rollo's unsure attention.
"I still can't believe how easy it was to trick those scouts." Magellan muttered.
Before anyone could respond, the doors opened to admit Schneizel and Kanon.
"One of my subordinates informed me that you have requested a meeting with me." Schneizel asked and sat down on the other side of the three individuals.
"Damn right we did and you should teach those subordinates how to treat guest." Magellan said walking closer to Schneizel.
"Well that's quite scary, but I believe that it would be you who needs to learn some sentimental mannerisms." Schneizel said and smiled when he saw the look of confusion on Magellan's face.
Lelouch laughed a bit at this before facing Schneizel.
"Schneizel the time has come for you to serve me once more." Lelouch said and started lifting off the helmet.
"What exactly do you mean by tha-" Kanon's eyes grew wide at the sight of Lelouch as did Schneizel.
"Now then dear brother, I find myself in need of a ship and by a twist of faith you came along with one." Lelouch said and tilted his head a little.
Kanon expected Schneizel to be in shock of Lelouch, but what he found was the exact opposite.
Schneizel stood up and kneeled before Lelouch, "This ship is yours to take, my lord."
"L-lord Schneizel, what are you saying!" Kanon said with surprise.
He looked at the amused look on Lelouch's face and tried to run for the alarm, but suddenly felt someone grab him.
He turned to face his silver-haired captor and struggled to free himslef from his grip. Then something caught his eye, the man had a strange symbol in his eyes.
'No this is...' Kanon thought with wide eyes before dropping to the ground, suddenly feeling out of energy.
"What's...h-happening...to me?" he managed to mumble before falling unconcious.
"Lord Lelouch, if don't mind me asking, what happened to him?" Schneizel asked looking curiously at the man.
"He experienced Magellan's Geass, Absolute Exhaustion. The ability to force a person to exhaust more energy on an action than what is truly required." Lelouch explained quickly as he stared down at the motionless body.
"It means that I can force you to use up a hell of a lot of energy on one action." Magellan said.
"My, that's quite a dangerous ability." Schneizel said as he stared at the symbol of the Geass on Magellan's eyes.
"Now then Schneizel, why are you in the Atlantic anyway?" Lelouch asked as he walked around the room.
"Zero ordered me to go to a UFN facility in Greenland, apperantly there has been an attack on it." Schneizel's gaze followed Lelouch as he walked around the room.
"I see, well then I guess you shall be making a small detour." Lelouch said as he turned to face Schneizel.
"How many people are in this ship?" Lelouch asked.
"Including the four-er-five of us, there are exactly thirty-six people on board." Schniezel responded quickly.
"Hm. Well Kanon is out cold and minus the four of us, there are thirty-two people. I guess we don't have a choice then, Schneizel, send an announcement for everyone to meet in the hangar in ten minutes." Lelouch said as he went off.
Atlantic Ocean - Battle Cruiser Hitonama - Hangar
"What has Lord Schneizel summoned us for?" Klaustin asked a soldier.
"Who knows? Maybe he decided to give us all a promotion." A man said jokingly.
A sudden cough silenced the people as Schneizel came into view.
"My friends, welcome. I'm sure that you're all wondering why I have summoned you here." Schneizel said with a happy smile.
The soldiers were all in shock about how friendly Schneizel was and were even more shocked to see the warm smile on his usually emotionless face. In their shock, none of them noticed a young boy come in from behind them.
A strange symbol apeared in the boy's eyes as all the soldiers froze.
"Excellent job, Rollo." Lelouch said as he walked beside Schneizel.
Lelouch waved his hand in front of his face as a bird-like symbol appeared in both his eyes.
Looking directly at the soldiers he declared, "Lelouch Vi Brittania commands you, make me your master!"
Rollo deactivated his Geass as the soldiers saluted, "Yes, your highness!"
Lelouch smiled and ordered the soldiers to their original posts.
"Hm. It looks like Schneizel was more useful than I had anticipated." he said happily as he remembered the incident a year ago.
Flashback
2018 a.t.b
A month before Lelouch's death, the young emperor walked down the imperial palace as he made his way to the dungeons.
"Your Highness." a soldier saluted as Lelouch passed by.
The stairway to the dungeons was dark and medieval, Lelouch took a mental note to have someone clean it up later.
Lelouch arrived at the base of the stairs and walked up to the first cell he saw.
"Hello brother." Lelouch said as he looked at the pitiful figure of the former 2nd prince.
"M-master Zero!" Schneizel said as he crawled up into the part of his cell lit by the torches in the hall.
"To what do I owe the pleasure of your visit, master?" Schneizel asked as he bowed his head all the way to the ground.
"Well Schneizel, I just thought that it would be fair to inform you that your master will be different soon." Lelouch said as he opened the cell to go in for himself.
The cell was small and rotten, the walls were unpolished and there were spiders in the corners.
"Master Zero, what are you talking about? I serve Zero and no one else." Schneizel said proudly.
"Yes, you will still be serving Zero, a different Zero." Lelouch said.
"Master Zero, with all due respect, I will continue to serve any Zero in the world no matter what." Schneizel declared.
Lelouch sighed and said, "I was afraid of this."
Lelouch took out his cellphone and dialed the number of the palace's communications room.
"My lord, what can I do for you?" the soldier who answered said.
"Tell General Gottwald to meet me in the dungeons." Lelouch said plainly.
"Yes! My lord!" the soldier saluted.
A few moments later, Jeremiah arrived in the dungeons.
"Your highness, you callled?" he asked as he entered Schneizel's cell.
"Yes, there is a flaw in Zero Requiem, I need you to cancel my Geass on Schneizel." Lelouch said as he gestured Schneizel who was looking curiously at Jeremiah's Geass Canceller.
Jeremiah flinched at the mention of Zero Requiem, he couldn't understand why Lelouch insisted on sacrificing himself.
"Yes, my lord." he saluted lowly as he faced Schneizel and revealed his Geass Canceller.
With a small flash, Schneizel shook his head as he turned to Lelouch with a small scowl.
"Lelouch, what have you done?" Schneizel asked, but was captured by Jeremiah.
Lelouch turned to face him and took out his contact lens'.
"Lelouch, do you have any idea wh-" Schneizel was cut off by Lelouch.
"I order you to serve Lelouch Vi Brittania." he said emotionlessly as his Geass bended Schneizel's will.
"Yes, your majesty!" Schneizel said as he bowed down to Lelouch.
Jeremiah watched pitifully at Schneizel.
"My lord, why did you tell him to serve you and not Suzaku?" Jeremiah asked.
"That's what I did last time and his loyalties wouldn't be set, if someone were to impostor Zero, Schneizel would've been forced to obey. Suzaku will wear a mask for all eternity, thus I can't tell him to serve Suzaku." Lelouch finished as he faced Schneizel.
"Now then Schneizel, as your master, I command you to serve the Zero that will kill me until I return." he commanded his elder brother.
"Until you return?" Jeremiah asked.
"Yes he will be forced to serve Suzaku for all eternity because I shall never return." Lelouch explained.
Lelouch and Jeremiah left the cell to leave Schneizel in his thoughts.
Lelouch laughed at his memories, he never thought that he would actually return from the dead.
"Lord Lelouch, where is our destination." A soldier asked Lelouch.
"Just take us to the island six miles north form here." Lelouch said plainly.
"Novaloches won't mind that Brother just made some UFN soldiers his slaves, nor that he captured a powerful battleship, not to mention disrupting an important mission of Schneizel, right?" Rollo asked Magellan.
Magellan shrugged and stated, "Even if he did, I'll just balme you two."
Rollo scowled at Magellan before joining his brother.
Atlantic Ocean - Island of Ethereal
A few hours later, the Hitonama arrived on a strange island in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.
Lelouch made his way out of the ship and proceeded into a deep jungle with Magellan and Rollo by his side.
After a few minutes of hiking, the trio arrived at a dark cave.
"We'll wait out here, you go on ahead." Magellan said as Lelouch nodded and entered the cave.
Soon after Lelouch went in the cave he was enveloped in total darkness. He staggered for a few minutes, attempting to gain his night vision.
He closed his eyes and reopened them to see that he was still in darkness except for a red crystal trail.
'How primitive..." Lelouch thought inwardly as he followed the trail.
It seemed like an eternity of walking before Lelouch reached the end of the trail and found himself at a dead end.
The trail disappeared and was replaced by a giant unmistakable symbol of the Power of Kings.
Lelouch sighed as he placed his hand on the symbol and instantly felt a rush of air come over him.
Lelouch landed on his feet and looked around at his surroundings.
He was sitting on grass surrounded by several white pillars with strange engravings on them.
"So what is this place?" Lelouch asked the man who was walking up to him as he silently stood up.
"Hmph. Not even a hello first." the man said mckingly as he shook his head.
"Enough of your games Novaloches, what is this place?" Lelouch repeated.
Novaloches sighed before answering, "This place is called Gaia."
"Gaia?" Lelouch asked and raised his eyebrow.
"Yes, yes, but we'll get to that in a moment." Novaloches said as he walked ahead and gestured Lelouch to follow.
They walked in silence to a grassy hill that loomed over an ocean.
"Say Lelouch, Do you know who Charles Darwin is?" Novaloches asked Lelouch.
Lelouch was taken aback by the question and staggered for a moment before answering.
"Of course, he was a Brittanian noble who created the theory of evolution."
"Precisely, but do you know how he came across that theory?" Novaloches asked with a grin forming on his face.
Lelouch looked at Novaloches with interest, they never said the reason of how Darwin formed that theory in school.
"The truth is that he was a Geass user, like me and yourself." he finally said.
Lelouch's eyes widened, it was shocking to know that one of the most brilliant men in history was a Geass user.
"He posessed the Geass of Absolute Evolution." Novaloches concluded.
"Absolute Evolution?" Lelouch asked quizically.
"Yes, Darwin's theory states that all modern lifeform on Earth evolved from a primitive species after millions or even billions of years." Novaloches paused before continuing.
"Evolution is something that occurs naturally in order to adapt to different living conditions, for example, the walrus is believed to have once been some form of land mammal and evolved to the water after about a million years."
"Darwin's Geass is one that allowed him to evolve at an extremely accelerated rate to any living condition. For instance, if you threw him in water, he would grow gills and webbed fingers or toes after a few seconds. If you flung him into the air, he would sprout wings before he touches the ground." Novaloches concluded.
"But how, Geass is an ability limited by the properties of the mind, it doesn't affect your body." Lelouch said as he tried to absorb all of this information.
"That is true, but evolution is a property of the mind. Your brain is what tells your body what to do, in puberty your brain releases horomones to change your body, evolution is pretty much the same thing." Novaloches said as he felt a cool breeze.
"If a normal human is forced to live in water, he would evolve after millions of years into a human-fish hybrid. Darwin's Geass simply accelerated that process of millions of years into mere seconds." Novaloches explained.
"So then...how did Darwin gain his Geass?" Lelouch asked.
"Ah yes, he was given his Geass by a man named Trouve."
"An immortal?" Lelouch asked.
"No, Trouve wasn't an immortal or atleast not anymore, his code was taken or rather stolen and he lost his immortality, shortly after he was killed by the thief." Novaloches asked.
"Who stole it? How did they steal it?" Lelouch asked.
"Haven't you ever wondered why V.V is immortal?" Novaloches asked with a small grin.
"Wait then that means..." Lelouch started, but was cut off.
"Yes, you ended that chain of immortality by destroying your father's existance."
"Okay, but I still don't understand why you brought me here." Lelouch said as he had finally absorbed all the new information.
"Lelouch, I have never revealed this to anyone, but my left eye is blind." Novaloches said as he turned to face Lelouch.
Lelouch stared at Novaloches' eye and noticed that the eye was completely white except for the Geass in the middle.
"Your Geass eye is..." Lelouch said in shock.
Novaloches nodded before facing the horizon.
"Yes, it's the price I had to pay for my Geass."
"Um...what is your Geass?" Lelouch asked.
"It's called the Geass of Absolute Occlumence, it grants me the power to control the visions of anyone within my area. In exchange, my Geass eye must share their visions."
Novaloches answered.
"But your Geass eye is blind so..." Lelouch began.
"Yes, I don't have to share their visions. However my Geass only affects vision, your hearing will remain unaffected by your visions." Novaloches concluded.
"Okay, but that still doesn't explain why you brought me here." Lelouch said in a slightly angry voice.
"Always eager aren't we Lelouch." Novaloches said as he turned and started walking to the middle of the sanctuary.
"Darwin was the first to discover this world Lelouch, that's why I told you about him."
"This world?" Lelouch asked.
"Excactly, this place is the equivalent to the World of C, it is called Gaia."
"Gaia? You mean Mother Earth?" Lelouch asked.
Novaloches nodded before continuing.
"Gaia is the centerfold of all life on Earth, the Collective Unconciousness are the thoughts of everyone on Earth ." he concluded.
"They are like energy and technology, neither can exist without the other. Gaia creates life and the World of C controls life." he said looking at Lelouch.
"Have you ever wondered why the Knights of Geass are so few in numbers?" he asked.
"I did a little when you first revived me." Lelouch answered with interest.
"Actually the truth is there used to be twelve of us." Novaloches said as he gazed to the sky.
"Then V.V came along with his collective, he feared us and the moment he gained power, he assembled an army and attacked us." a frown began to form on his face.
"Absolute Stimulate, Absolute Magnetism, Absolute Telekinesis, Absolute Adrenaline, Absolute Visualization, Absolute Maneuverability, Absolute Conduction, we lost all of them because of V.V." Novaloches said clenching his fist.
"After the attack, only five of us remained." Novaloches said grimly.
"Five?" Lellouch asked.
"Yes, your familiar with the fifith one, his name is Mao." Novaloches said as he turned to face Lelouch.
"M-Mao." Lelouch exclaimed as he remembered the demented telepath.
"Yes, the King with the Power of Absolute Telepathy. He left us shortly after V.V's attack when he heard of C.C. I heard that you took care of him, no matter he was coming to a point where we would have been forced to kill him anyway." Novaloches said as he turned back to the sky.
"Tell me Lelouch, what is the Power of Kings?" Novaloches asked.
"It's...a power...of the mind." Lelouch answered unsurely.
"Well, the more technical definition is that it's an employment of extremely complex science, far beyond anything humans can even begin to comprehend." Novaloches said as the grass below them slid and the sanctuary began to to spin.
When it stopped, Lelouch had fallen to the floor while Novaloches remained untouched.
Lelouch looked around and realized that he was no longer in the grassy plain.
"Where are we?" Lelouch asked.
"This is the foundation of Geass." Novaloches explained as he stared at a giant three with strange birds flying around it.
Lelouch instantly noticed the birds, it was the symbol of Geass.
"These are the Geass' of humanity, they are a powerful lifeform created by Gaia that exist on a different plain of existence from the world of the living."
"Each are gifted by a powerful ability. When Geass users activate their Geass, they summon the Geass to use their powers. When the user dies, the Geass it made a contract with is also supposedly trapped in the dimmension between here and the human realm." Novaloches told Lelouch.
Just then a giant Geass bird landed on the tree and roared, sending Lelouch and Novaloches back a few steps.
"What's that?" Lelouch asked as he attempted to get up.
"Well, that is Mother Geass. This is only the second time I have ever seen it." Novaloches said as he looked at the great bird.
"This Geass is unlike all others, this Geass is said to have no flaws nor limitations to it's power." Novaloches said as he stared wide-eyed at the bird.
"So...what power does it grant you?" Lelouch asked.
"No one knows. Some say it grants you all the powers of Geass." he paused before continuing.
"Personally I believe that the user of this Geass will recieve omniponence or nigh-omniponence." he said in a low voice.
"So is this why you brought me here then?" Lelouch asked Novaloches.
Novaloches nodded and looked at Lelouch.
"I wanted to show you the true nature of Geass, but there is still one thing I must show you." Novaloches said as he and Lelouch started going back to the sanctuary.
Amazingly Lelouch held his own against the rush of air and the twisting sanctuary this time around.
They arrived at a cemetary of some sort and unlike the others, this place was nearing sunset.
Novaloches started walking to the middle of the cemetary with Lelouch closely behind.
"This is the Graveyard of Geass, every dead Geass users' unconciousness is sealed within the coffins." Novaloches said as he stopped in front of a giant tablet.
"And this...this is the Prophecy of Kings." Novaloches said as he placed a hand on the tablet.
"Say Lelouch, do you know of the Numerals?" Novaloches asked Lelouch.
There was a long silence before Lelouch finally answered.
"Yes, they were an empire that rivaled the Romans long ago." Lelouch said.
Novaloches' eyes widened as he turned to face Lelouch with a look demanding to know how Lelouch knew this.
"During my time as emperor, I explored the temples and shrines of my ancestors. On the wall were scripted the stories of Romans battling against an unknown enemy that was erased from history, they were called the Numerals." Lelouch explained.
Novaloches closed his eyes and returned to facing the tablet.
"Yes, the Romans were a powerful empire that was unrivaled at the time in terms of military power. The Roman Empire is what evolved into Brittania as we know it today. However the secret behind their unfathomable power was the secrets they learned from the Numerals." Novaloches explained and Lelouch tilted his head slightly.
"The Numerals were few in number, less than a hundred people lived in the empire, but their power was Geass." Novaloches explained.
"However, one of the Numerals within their inner circle, one of the eight immortals within their society desired power. He made a deal with Emperor Didius Julianus, in exchange for the military might of Rome he would give them the power of Geass."
"With the power of Geass the Romans evolved their empire far beyond anything that the other empires could have gained, but they never kept their promise to the Numerals. Septimius Severus, the emperor after Didius tricked the Inner Circle to give up their immortality."
"With Severus and his seven most trusted advisors as immortals, they gave their Geass to over 500 soldiers and attacked the Numerals. Powerful as the Numerals were, they were no match for the Romans and so their empire crumbled to the ground."
"Severus however became paranoid that one of the other immortals would attempt to overthrow him. So he did the only thing he could do, he ordered his men to slash the immortals into hundreds of pieces and burned them all. He buried the ashes in the ground at different locations around the world. Not even an immortal can survive punishment as hellish as that." Novaloches finished.
Lelouch who had been silent the whole time spoke.
"Trouve, the man that V.V killed, his name was Aprilius Trouve wasn't it. He was the former emperor before my father, he was my grandfather wasn't he." Lelouch said with a voice that sounded like an assasin's.
"Yes, he was. Now you know Lelouch, that the Geass is a plague that has infected humanity since the beginning of time, there are traces of it spread throughout history."
Novaloches looked at Lelouch with sorrow in his eyes.
"Lelouch, I'm sorry. It's hard for a single person to take in all this information at once, but there is still one last important thing I must show you." Novaloches said as Lelouch nodded.
Novaloches faced the tablet and felt the engravings.
"One of the Numerals named Kara, possesed the power of Absolute Clairvoyance. She predicted a prophecy about a Geass user that escaped eternal isolation." he said as Lelouch stared at the tablet.
"I believe that the person she speaks of is you." Novaloches said without looking at the wide-eyed Lelouch.
"When shadow comes to claim our world,"
"One must rise, the light of hope."
"Name in stone, spirit of legend."
"Deeds unknown, yet never forgotten."
"This is our saviour."
"The king who shall destroy our world"
"And recreate it."
"When the world is at it's knees,"
"He shall come in our darkest hour."
"That is what the prophecy states." Novaloches said.
"Then..back when you revived me, the one who you said escaped eternal isolation was...was me?" Lelouch asked.
"However at that time, I didn't know if you were the shadow or the saviour, now I'm certain that you are the saviour." Novaloches said as he faced Lelouch.
"You know Lelouch, your father wasn't always like that." Novaloches said.
"Y-you knew my father?" Lelouch asked and Novaloches nodded.
"He and V.V used to be best friends of mine. Charles used to talk about what he wanted to do in the future all the time and V.V wanted to look into the future and never turn back into their tragic past." Novaloches explained.
"But then something changed in them, all of a sudden they wanted to destroy all lies in the world. The two of them who fought so hard to escape their past suddenly wanted to trap the world in it." Novaloches said as he clenched his teeth.
"Lelouch, there is someone behind this all, someone pulling the strings here."
"The shadow." Lelouch muttered and Novaloches nodded.
"This person, this shadow is not someone to be taken lightly Lelouch." he said as he gripped Lelouch's shoulders.
"He is a man who has been toying with the world, a man who has spilled countless amounts of blood and laugh. Such a person can't possibly be human, no this shadow is a monster who enjoys the pain of others." Novaloches said as he gripped Lelouch's shoulders so tightly.
"W-what did the shadow do to you?" Lelouch asked as he winced in pain.
"The shadow is responsible for the death of my entire family and for the blindness of my eye." Novaloches said as he let go of Lelouch.
"I refuse to let a monster roam freely around this world. If this shadow takes control of the world, the world as we know it will truly be hell." Novaloches said as he looked at Lelouch straight in the eyes.
"Lelouch, I don't have long left to live. Geass has taken it's toll on me, I'm at the footsteps of death, clinging on to life by a thread. The final chapter of my life will soon come to and end." he said and walked back one step.
Just then Magellan, Rollo and Seragenato appeared in the sanctuary and walked beside Novaloches. They all kneeled down before Lelouch.
"If you are truly the only hope this world has, then we shall dedicate our lives to protect and support you against the shadow. If you accept then we will valiantly stand with you against the shadow." Novaloches said as they all placed their hands on their heart.
"If this is your wish then I shall do what I can to prevent appocalypse and bring light to this dying world." Leloluch said and flung his arm to his side.
"Now then, rise my Knights of the Elements!" Lelouch declared.
"Yes, your majesty!" they saluted.
Unknown Location
"Master, Lord Waldstein has returned." a man hidden in the darknes said.
"Excellent, with this the UFN shall fall into chaos and we shall rise into power." said a crippled voice from a man sitting on a throne in the shadows.
"Where is Luciano?" the voice asked.
"He has gone off somewhere without permission, shall we locate him?" the man asked.
"Yes, contact him and tell him to wreck havok and create mass chaos." the voice said and laughed maliciously.
Okay, that was the longest chapter I've created so far.
Now then here are a few things :
1) Omniponence means supreme power or infinite power.
2) Nigh-Omniponence means near omniponent power.
3) The voice at the end of the chapter sounds like Lord Voldemorte in his weaknened state at the beginning of the 4th Harry Potter movie.
4) Happy Easter!
Please R&R, I'll accept any tips or advice.
Until next time.
