DISCLAIMER: I do not own Naruto or Code Geass.
AN: Sorry it took so long to get this chapter out, I have recently made a HUGE move and money has been tight, so most of my time has been drawn to working my ass off. When I get home, I'm so tired I actually fall asleep at 8:00 then I wake up at 5 to do it all again. I finally actually have living arrangements and I'm currently uploading this from a Starbucks, so enjoy reading as much as I had writing.
Summary: During the final battle Naruto is thrown into far away universe where racism and oppression is rampant in the country known as Japan, or to Britannians, Area 11. Naruto, finding his resolve, sets out to create peace in this world. 6 years later, he sets his plans in motion, but there was a snag, as someone named Zero emerged.
"No!" Clovis denied, surprising Lelouch. "My brother and sister died in the invasion of Japan!" Clovis was frantic now. This is why he wished to be Viceroy of Area 11, to find them, but after 6 years of searching he gave up. "I just came to terms with their deaths and now you dare mock me with his face!" Tears began forcing themselves out of his eyes. "6 years, I searched for them! Hoping to find them alive! I will not have sully his name!" He began to march towards the imposter, only to stop at the reminder that he is being held at gunpoint.
Lelouch could not help but pity his half-brother before him. He had seen Clovis get emotional before, but never like this. Even if he was acting, it was too much, even for him. "When we were little, when I came close to beating you in chess you would either use Nunnally to make me go easy on you or you would simply flip the board." More proof that he was who he claimed to be. "And I would still win. You were always a terrible loser."
Clovis could not believe what he was hearing. Only people that were in the Aries Villa could know such a detail. Forgoing the thought of being held at gunpoint, he lunged forward and embraced his long lost brother, only to be pushed away and sat back down on the throne, now with the gun at his head. "Why? Why are you doing this?" he questioned.
"I have my reasons."
"Lelouch, please, put the gun down."
"Why? So you can convince me to be a tool in your bid to the throne? I don't think so. Now…" Lelouch's left eye glowed with a sigil of some sort. "Tell me what you know of my mother's murder."
Clovis' eyes grew dull and a red ring formed around his eyes. "The murderer," he started, "is unknown. Schneizel and Cornelia know the details better than I."
"They were at the heart of this?" His only response was a clenching of the teeth from Clovis. "That is all you know then?" He released the Geass he had on his brother.
Clovis was beginning to panic, not even noticing the lapse of memory. The last thing he saw was the barrel of the gun Lelouch was holding before everything went dark.
Chapter 4: Kurama, Japan's Ninja
Lelouch wiped Clovis' blood from his face. He just killed his brother, knowing that his sister would surely be sad when she heard of his death. But it had to be done. His half-brother had committed a major crime against humanity for the sake of covering his own ass. Even his father, the Emperor, would have punished Clovis harshly for this action.
He shakily placed the gun into the suit he was wearing. He felt like he needed to throw up. No matter how many times he told himself to get over it, he couldn't do it. Clovis was still a human. And not just any human. Despite his attitude, Clovis was still one of his favorite siblings. He was kind to anyone family and Lelouch enjoyed the times they spent together at the Aries Villa.
"What the hell did you do?!" a familiar voice yelled. Lelouch looked to the entrance of the G-1 mobile base to see Kurama standing there. Lelouch had enough noble training to know that Kurama's body language exuded anger. "He was not armed! And you killed him!" Kurama stomped over to Lelouch's face, him being too shocked to pull his gun again. "And he was your brother!"
Lelouch took a step back and raised his gun at the masked man, only for him to throw a knife right at the gun. This caused Lelouch to drop it and look at it in slight panic. The knife was imbedded in the barrel of the gun. He took another step back only to trip over his brother's corpse.
'Who is this man?' the thought ringing through Lelouch's head as he scrambled to get on his feet. "I command you to die!" he says, using his Geass for the fourth time today. He watched with satisfaction as the masked man took out his knife and stabbed himself in the neck. Only the satisfaction did not last as the whole body exploded into smoke. "What?"
"So that is how it works, huh?" said a voice he should not be hearing behind him. "It's a hypnotic spell that leaves no memory of when a person is under. What a dangerous power you have." Kurama emerged from the shadows behind the throne. "I should probably just kill you just for having that power… but I won't." Lelouch did not know why but he let out a breath of relief. "You have a very dangerous power, Lelouch vi Britannia. I advise you temper that power with humility, there is no way it is infallible."
His relief, however, was short lived as a realization came to him. He knew that he and Clovis were brothers. He KNEW what that represented!
"And why not?" Lelouch replied, still a little unnerved. If this man knew who he was, then he represented a danger to Nunnally. "If you know who I am, then I will certainly not hold back on any expenses hunting you down. How will I know that you will not turn me in, instead?" His blood was racing. The threat of being discovered didn't come close to the threat of what would happen to his sister. "I command you to die!" He ordered it again, only this time something different happened; nothing.
"Ah so it does have limitations," Kurama mused. "But is it that you cannot make the same order twice or that you cannot use your power on the same person twice." Those questions were certainly swimming through the former prince's head.
'But how did he-?'
"Survive in the first place?"
'Can he-?'
"Read my mind?" Kurama began to laugh out loud. It was dry and very sarcastic. "Now that would be interesting, now would it? No, your body language and facial expressions tell me all I need to know. To answer your first question is… a secret!"
For some reason, Lelouch felt the massive urge to fall over, but kept his composure.
"How do I know you won't tell anyone who I am?" Lelouch needed to know. He needed something that can be leveraged against this masked man.
"You don't." Kurama took a step forward and got down to face level with the former prince. "But I am a man of my word. If you don't believe me then believe this: tomorrow the news will likely run a story that favors the military and Britannia as a whole. Something along the lines as terrorists using "poison gas"." He threw up his fingers and did the quotations thing. "I will hack into all the news networks, and will reveal what truly happened, with video footage to back it up."
And with that, Kurama disappeared from Lelouch's sight. 'So,' Lelouch thought, 'just have to trust him? Trust is earned, and you have not earned it.' He clenched his hands into tight fists, 'And you know too much. My plan has no need for liabilities. But… what kind of person would I be if I didn't give you a chance. Ok. You have your chance.' Walking out of the G-1, there was one other thought that plagued his mind, how did he disappear like that?
Next Day
"Wake up!" Lelouch felt a roll of paper smacking against his head. When he opened his eyes, he sees his old friend Milly Ashford wielding said roll of paper. Looking down he noticed that he had fallen asleep working on the school club budget. "I saw your hand stop moving!"
"Well, you don't have to beat me up over it, do you?" Lelouch replied.
Rivalz had a smirk on his face as he looked onto the interaction. "HA! That's what you get for ditching me yesterday," he says as he leans back in his chair.
"Yeah, what was up with you yesterday?" Shirley Fenette, the auburn haired girl sitting next to the former prince, said.
Lelouch tried to come up with an answer but was quickly interrupted by another smack on the head. "That doesn't matter." Milly Ashford, the president of the student council at Ashford Academy. The blonde haired girl gave Lelouch another smack on the head for good measure. "We need to straighten out the club activites budget or else there won't be enough money for anything at all."
"And if it comes to that point," Nina Einstein, looked up from her computer to reply.
"Yeah and we don't want the equestrian club riding in on horseback," Rivalz chimed in.
"GUTS!" Milly yelled so loud that everyone rubbed their ears.
"You trying that guts spell of yours again, Madame President?" Rivalz quipped.
"Yeah, I want you people to start putting your all into this."
"I don't think your magic is working Milly," Lelouch said.
"Actually," Shirley spoke up, "it's gotten me going."
"Supple and willing, that's what I like," Milly said in a sultry tone.
"I train hard in the gymnastics club." Shirley, exuding a confident posture.
"That's not what I was getting at," Milly replied looking at Shirley with a look that made Shirley very uncomfortable. "You're a ten." Shirley looked at the President very confused. "From what I've seen in the girls' bathroom anyway, you've been filling out in all the right places, huh."
"What, what are you talking about, you perv?!"
While this was going on, Naruto and his clones were infiltrating the main hub that controls the TV stations. The emperor is notoriously a control freak. He needs for everything to run his way and no one else's. Even if it doesn't go his way, he is devious enough to make it work for him. Naruto held no illusions that what he was going to do would faze the emperor whatsoever. In fact, he fully suspected that the giant of a man to somehow spin his message towards justifying his quest to conquer the world.
Naruto had made many clones prior to this mission. However, he still needed someone to run his company. So he had one there. He needed to get ahead over what happened at Shinjuku. His company was the leader in medical science, even if he didn't have the leading scientists and doctors, so naturally, a heavy burden fell upon him to make sure that the people of the ghetto got medical supplies.
But back to him, he was currently under a transformation jutsu to navigate the broadcasting hub without interference. He came up to a white door with the sign above it flashing live. He quietly opened the door and shut it without making a sound. Releasing his jutsu revealed Naruto in his Kurama getup, with a white cloak and hood. A standard one that was worn by the captains of ANBU.
In front of him, everyone in the booth stopped working and turned around. "HELLO!" Naruto exclaimed and went into action. Naruto moved to the closest person and quickly knocked them out. Quickly following up, he attacked the remaining people in the sound room and cut the link of the current story being broadcasted. Naruto created some more clones after everyone was knocked out.
He had his clones take control of the station and began setting up with the picture of a nine-tailed fox on a banner behind the desk and taking off the lettering of the desk.
Back at Ashford Academy, the students' televisions cut off from the news, drawing Lelouch's attention.
(Play 'Madder Sky')'Is he doing it now?' Lelouch thought back to what Kurama had said yesterday, about the news.
A few seconds later, the channel blinked back. Only this was different. In the back was a red banner, with a nine-tailed fox on it, and the anchor's desk was crudely painted over with 'Kurama'.
"Hello, Britannia," Kurama began as he was sitting behind the desk. "This is currently being broadcasted over all channels, so do yourselves a favor and not try to change your channel." Sure enough, the student tried changing the channel, only for it to be the same thing. "See? I told you. Now to get to the point. Your government has been lying to you. It was not the terrorists that wiped out the Shinjuku ghetto. It was your army, under orders from Prince Clovis, who had committed this horrible and unjust act, all as a guise to hide the fact that he had created chemical weapons."
Kurama lifted his hand and a screen appeared on the TV and immediately an audio clip began playing. "If knowledge of this gets out, I'll be disinherited. Tell them back home we're carrying out a planned urban renewal here. As Clovis, third prince of the empire, I command you! Destroy Shinjuku Ghetto! Leave no one alive!" The audio ended and all the students present began to get in an uproar. That was Clovis' voice alright, he had given many speeches so it was very recognizable. "By the way, the following footage is unsuitable for children, or people in general, it's pretty gruesome."
The screen began playing footage of the Britannian soldiers mercilessly slaughtering innocent people in the ghetto. Children, women, and the elderly were not spared. "By now you have seen enough so I will spare your eyes. You have been revealed the truth. I know some of you will not believe but that is the unfortunate truth of the universe. There will always be naysayers." Kurama gave a sigh and shrugged his shoulders. "But onto other matters. My name is Kurama. I am trained in the ancient art of ninjutsu. Technically speaking, I am a ninja. But that is unimportant. My purpose here today is to inform you. To inform you of my future involvement in these affairs. My goal is to achieve peace. So anyone involved in the disruption of peace, be it terrorism or a corrupt politician will be met with swift justice. Which is why I am here to tell you that Prince Clovis has been murdered." Now this caused an uproar in the class. "Well murdered isn't a right term, executed more like it. He carried out an act of evil so that he wouldn't lose his social standing. This is inexcusable."
The TV began showing several pictures of various nobles and police officers. "These various people you see here are just the beginning. Police officers who take bribes from refrain dealers to nobles that bribe and cheat their way to the top. This is just the beginning." And the screen went blank.
And this is the long awaited chapter 4. I'm not gonna lie, I lost the will to continue this story, as it happens to me and a lot of other writers. But I'm gonna focus all my attention on this story and I look to have R1 completed by next year, I hope.
