Chapter 9 preparation for the end
Lelouch once again end up in the hospital (medical wing of the repaired/rebuild Ikaruga) after his power grows more uncontrollable each second. But to his surprise when he see a dark figure standing in the corner of the room. "So I see that your finally awake." The dark figure ask. Lelouch was about to say something when flashes of memories hit him, (like in the last episode of R1) memories of the first geass user, about King Arthur the first true king. "Father, you seen the memories didn't you?" Lucius voice snaps lelouch back to reality as he looks at the mysterious stranger as he smirks "so 'King Arthur' I presume?" "Ah so what I have heard of you are true, your deducing skill is much more skilled then I thought." "Maybe, maybe not but what you just showed me and what I heard in C's world, I just put two and two together." "Yes well looks like a new evil have shown its ugly face and he wants to destroy the world, so I have decided to help the only one with the power of stopping him." "But won't you the one who went insane because of the power?" Lucius ask worrying for his father's sanity. "Yes well if your rage goes beyond control your power will as well….the reason why I lose control during my time as king is because…..traitors from my higher arcs attack my family and well….they killed my wife and kids…and with their deaths came the insanity of my blood rage. Only the deaths of the ones you love will the power go full power with a blood red anger." Both lelouch and Lucius are absorbing the information as lelouch and Lucius finally understand what happened to both of them. "So I lose control of my geass with my sisters were threaten while father lose control of his geass when suzaku told father that his sister was the one who made the first move." (he said in a bit of a joking fashion) finishing his sentence, Lucius than thought he should have keep his mouth shut as lelouch stare at him with a 'I going to ground you for life' look. "In a way your right but you haven't seen me mad yet." Lelouch said still staring at Lucius
After about 5 minutes or so in silence as both father and son disgust everything they learned so far, lelouch finally remembers the last thing he heard before he passed out 'Ragnarök' "damn it how could I been so blind!" lelouch said with a forgotten rage boiling inside him "you just figured it out huh lelouch, yes neo is planning on using Ragnarök connection to fulfill him plan of world destruction." "but how father destroyed the sword of Akasha and made sure that 'god' does not stop the march of time." "yes lelouch did do that but…he has rebuild it and he going to rework it so that it will destroy the world as that was what he wanted after he found out he was just an experiment."
After about an hour of discussing information C.C enters the room. "So we are you two talking about and how are you feeling lelouch." (FLASHBACK) "Lelouch you must remember one thing only absolution user will see me, you and your son are included but your daughters can feel my presence."
About 4 hours later
Lelouch (and company) goes to the knightmare hanger "so Ohgi are we meeting the 2 special E.U units W-0?" "Yes zero they are in their E.U knightmare frames Alexander, their names are Leila Malkal and Akito Hyuga plus their team in the next hanger." As Leila and akito get out of their knightmares lelouch is greeted with a stare off with akito while Leila exchange glances at C.C
"So zero I took it?" akito ask lelouch "ah Hannibal's ghost I take it, you and the W-0 squad were one of the few fraction we defeated Britannia during knightmare combat, the say that you are beyond human but the truth is that you got geass when you were just a boy." This last comment pretty much shocked everyone there as only the members of W-0 know of akito past, this may have shock akito a bit that zero knows his past but quickly returns to he's normal calm look. "How did you know?" "Easy I have geass too and I can see thorough your memories." lelouch said quietly (so only C.C akito and Leila can hear the conversation). There was a pause as akito thinks on what zero just said "so you know my past, what else you know?" "I know that you got geass by you big brother, Shin Hyuga Shing and that he's geass is like mine but a bit more…..deadly, and by the way C.C you should let me know about your past contacts because I never knew you gave geass to a blonde haired Britannian during the time you looked after me." Leila looks at C.C as memories flow back into here from the time on the lake as her geass flashes (I taking this from images from the wiki)
Ohgi noticing this standoff (he just guided lelouch and C.C to them and then left) and quickly goes to zero "so are you guys joining the fight?" "Yes the W-0 squad will aid the holy Britannia army and black knights." "Alright then you and your team meet us up in the bridge we and the some of the top members of the black knights need to be there Ohgi."
As lelouch reached the bridge (with suzaku in his knight of zero suit) "so suzaku has people given you shit for being a fake for about 10 years now?" "Not really they handled it pretty while I guess." Just at that moment Cornelia enter the bridge from behind lelouch and suzaku with Nunnally. Lelouch smile at Nunnally who smile back at him and suzaku while Cornelia just stares at lelouch. "Zero we need to have a chat in private." "Alright then I will see you later Nunnally, suzaku."
Lelouch expecting the worst from Cornelia after killing euphy. After they left the bridge to a private area of the ship Cornelia immediately punch lelouch in the gut "that was for euphy! Even though you didn't do it by choice I still won't forgive you not yet at least." "Yes I understand Cornelia I really do I will carry that sin for all eternity."
Lelouch and Cornelia return back up to the bridge (separately) "hello zero." Kaguya said happily "hello kaguya." Lelouch said, seeing C.C and family are on the bridge he decided that now is a good time to tell everyone (that was not present during the meeting) who he was, as Arthur him and says "the power of the kings will always blame for thing he can't made real, the true power will only reveal itself when the people you care most dies (FORESHADOWING)."
Lelouch takes off the zero mask and shows his face to everyone with his eyes glowing "I, lelouch vi Britannia command you all follow my orders!"
