DISCLAIMER! : I own nothing besides this idea for the story. (pls don kill me)


{One week later}

Kaneki's POV:

"Lelouch, are you skipping class to go gamble again today?" I called as he ran out the door of the clubhouse.

"Yeah, why?"

"Be careful, something big is gonna happen today" I could sense danger from a mile away.

"How do you know that?" he paused.

"There's a weird feeling in the air" I called back.

"Speaking of you, you still have to tell me the rest of your story. I'm curious about how your hair turned white." he laughed. "Knowing you though, I'll wish I hadn't heard."

"You got that right, now get to class" Hide shouted from halfway across the building.

"Alright, alright." Lelouch laughed. "I'll see you both later then!"

I hope nothing bad happens. I wouldn't want the peaceful life I have here to be disturbed. I finally get to have peace here! I hope it lasts…


Lelouch's POV:

"Wow, Lelouch! I think you set a new record time in beating that guy" Rivalz cheered.

"It wasn't that hard," I replied, walking out of the building. "His time was limited too."

"People of Britannia, in the wake of the recent terrorist attacks, several of our own have died. Let us have a moment of silence in mourning their loss." Announced Clovis la Britannia, the third prince of the 'Holy' Britannian Empire.

The people around us all fell silent and bowed their heads.

"Hey, Rivalz," I stated calmly. "Let's head back to the school now."

"Alright, but shouldn't we take part in the whole 'moment of silence' thing?"

"You actually take those things seriously, Rivalz?"

"No, I think they're really embarrassing, but it seems appropriate, don'tcha think?"

"No, mourning doesn't bring the dead back to life." That was something I had learned long ago.

"That's kinda grim!" Rivalz laughed nervously.

"Just drive" I sighed as he started the bike and we began the drive back to school.

After a while of driving, Rivalz ended up cutting in front of a large vehicle, causing them to crash into a nearby building.

Rivalz stopped the bike, and I got out of the sidecar to survey the wreckage. Soon, a crowd began to gather, but not a one of them was doing a thing to help. In fact, most of them were laughing at the wreckage.

"Rivalz, hold on for a second" I called as I left my helmet and visor that I had been wearing in the side car.

"Lelouch, hold on a second!" Rivalz called as I ran over to the vehicle.

I called out to see if anyone was still in there, and if they needed help. Not hearing any responses, I climbed up a ladder on the side of the truck to see if I could get inside.

'Finally, I've found you' I heard a voice whisper, almost as if from inside my head, but that couldn't be right. Could it?

I looked around to try to pinpoint the source of the voice, but couldn't find it. 'Strange, where did it go?'

Just as I had gotten back to business, and was resuming my check for life inside the truck, I was thrown forward into the truck by it suddenly speeding backwards.

"Hey! Stop! I'm in here!" I called, to no avail.

After a quick look assured me that there wasn't a ladder on the inside, I sighed. 'I suppose Kaneki was right, something did happen today.'

Kaneki's POV:

"ACHOO!"

"Whoa, man, are you getting a cold or something?" Hide laughed.

"No, I don't think ghouls really get sick. Someone was probably just talking about me" I replied.

'It better not have been Tsukiyama. That man is too far in the trash bin as is.'

"Maybe something happened to Lelouch?" Hide seemed concerned now.

"That kid is smart," I replied. "He won't get into too much trouble."

"I suppose you're right, but what if something unexpected happens?" Hide persisted. "We both know he isn't athletic, like, at all."

"Adrenaline does wonderful things for the body, even if you aren't a ghoul" I calmly responded. "I should know, because I would have died many times over without it."

"That and your healing abilities are top notch, he doesn't have those."

"You make a fair point, but he'll be fine!" I was mainly reassuring myself at this point. "He knows how to stay out of those situations! Right?"


Lelouch's POV:

'No signal, we must be underground'

Where were these terrorists going anyway? And what was this container doing here? It seemed like something you'd see in a military lab.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, the side of the vehicle opened and the vehicle itself came to an abrupt stop, throwing me forward, next to the container. I looked up at the container, when I heard someone shout, "Stop right there, terrorist!"

Just as I turned to see who it was, a masked soldier ran up and spin-kicked me! Luckily, I blocked it with my arms just in time, but it still sent me flying.

"You're a Britannian school boy!" the soldier gasped. "But why are you here? Are you involved with these terrorists?"

"No, but say I was. Would you shoot me?"

"Yes. You would have caused the death of innocents" the soldier replied with a little hesitation. "And what meaning would results achieved the wrong way have?"

"Well then you're no better!" I exploded. "These people are attempting to make a change the only way they can!" I stepped into the light. "Britannia is no better than terrorists at that rate!"

"Lelouch?!" the soldier exclaimed. "Oh my gosh, I didn't realize it was you!" the soldier took of his helmet to reveal short, curly, brown hair and shining green eyes. "It's me! Suzaku"

"Suzaku?! But why are you-" I was cut off by the container making a loud whirring noise, and beginning to open.

Suzaku tackled me and covered my mouth with his gas mask, only for us to realize that there was nothing dangerous in the container, only a girl with long green hair in a prison suit.

"I was told it was poison gas…" Suzaku whispered incredulously.

"This girl? Poison gas?" I got up and hurried over to the girl's side. "Britannia really is corrupted."

Why would anyone chain up a girl like this? She looks like she wouldn't hurt a fly…


Kaneki's POV:

"OW!" I yelped.

"What's the matter?" Hide asked, walking over to me.

"My head…" I managed to spit out. "It feels like it's splitting open…"

"Is it the voices?"

"No… it's not Rize or Yamori. It's… someone else. Someone… more powerful than both of them."

"Can you make out what it's saying?"

"It's… asking for… a contract with someone?"

"Is it saying who?"

"No… I don't think she knows their name."

"Can you see what she looks like?"

"She has long green hair with bangs covering her forehead and golden eyes."

"Okay, can you see who she's talking to?"

"I… I think it's Lelouch!" I exclaimed. "But, why?"


(And I'll leave you guys on a cliff-hanger there.)

Shironeki: so, why am I a psychic now?

(Well, I figured that since you are a little insane, and have voices in your head of your own, maybe you could hear others' voices.)

Shironeki: I suppose that makes some sense at least.


((I am so tired right now, and I don't know why. IT IS 2PM I SHOULD NOT BE TIRED. :C))
