Hi, again…. Would appreciate it if you guys would review more often.
Anyway try this one. (Revised)
Chapter 14
Kallen is in her room lying on her bed with her face in a pillow.
Her heart was racing, echoes of what Lelouch said rang through her mind.
"I'll tell you when you're ready….." Those words rang the most. When was she going to be ready? When her geass matured, but still what then? Why couldn't Lelouch tell her now? More importantly how was he going to defeat Cipher?
"UGH!" Kallen yelled into her pillow. Kallen's mom must of heard it because she knocked on the door.
"Kallen, are you alright?" She asked, with a motherly tone.
"Yeah, mom." Kallen sighed. But her mom didn't think so and came in.
"Tell me what's wrong." She started with the look that said I'm not going to leave until you tell me.
Kallen sighed as she sat up. "It's about this boy."
"A BOY? WHO, DID HE BREAK YOUR HEART? ARE YOU PREGNANT?" Her mom said, tensing up.
"NO! I've known him for a while, and we're dating." Kallen replied. "We sort of made this promise."
"Promise?" Kallen's mom asked, confused.
"Well nothing you should worry about." Kallen said. "But I have to fulfill his one wish."
"What is it?" Her mom asked suspiciously.
"Well he said he wouldn't tell me until he thinks it's the right time." Kallen said. Her mom smiled at that.
"I see, then I agree with him." She said.
"Wait, huh? What do you mean?" Kallen asked, she was the confused one now.
"Seems like the boy is trustable though." Kallen's mom said as she walked out.
"Huh?" Kallen said. Did her mom know what the wish might be? She wondered about it for hours until she finally fell asleep.
Lelouch sat in a chair in Zero's office.
"So Lelouch how's this going to work?" Suzaku said, "Cipher has geass, this is obvious."
"Yes, I know." Lelouch replied, "That must mean he also knows about the code."
"What does that have to do with anything?" Suzaku asked.
"It doesn't yet." Lelouch explained, "But, Cipher will most likely spend his resources on finding the pilot of Ion."
"You mean you." Suzaku replied.
"Yes, and when he does, he will recognize me." Lelouch continued, "If he's smart, then he'll figure out that I have a code and will do anything to destroy me."
"For example?" Suzaku asked.
"He could reveal to the world that the great mysterious pilot is the Demon Emperor Lelouch." Lelouch answered.
"But no one will believe that." Suzaku laughed.
"I know it's quite impossible." Lelouch smirked, then pointed out, "But in the last year, a lot of impossible events occurred, like a 17 year old exiled prince taking over Britannia."
"Good point." Suzaku said, "Then what can we do?"
"I believe that Cipher will eventually find that I'm alive." Lelouch sighed, "So we can only prepare to fight him every now and then, but we must prepare for the world's reaction if he announces it to the world."
"So how are you going to do that?" Suzaku asked.
"Well I can start with the Black Knight leaders." Lelouch said, hesitantly.
Suzaku started to laugh, "Lelouch this is one of the stupidest moves I've ever heard of."
"But, since it's coming from you, I've got no choice to believe in it."
"Alright, gather them tomorrow, I'll also bring Kallen to soften the blow." Lelouch said as he stood up.
"Good luck tomorrow." Suzaku said.
"Thanks, I'm going to need a whole hell lot of it." Lelouch replied as he left.
"KALLEN! Wake up!" Kallen's mom yelled.
"AH!" Kallen screamed as she fell from her bed.
"HURRY! THERE'S SOMEONE HERE FOR YOU!" her mom yelled again.
Kallen scrambled towards the shower. She turned on the water undressed and got in.
"AH!" Kallen screamed from the cold water. She quickly washed her body and got out. She got dressed and burst out of her room.
"Okay, I'm out who's here?-" Kallen said as she came into the kitchen and saw Lelouch sitting at the table. She froze.
"Hey there." Lelouch said, smiling. Her mom was smiling in a very interesting way.
"Uh… Mom this is-" Kallen started.
"Oh he's already introduced himself." She interrupted.
"Well you guys better get to school." She said suddenly and handed Kallen a piece of toast. "Bye!~"
"Wait a-" Kallen tried to say as her mom pushed Lelouch and her out instead and the door closed on her face.
"Come on Kallen." Lelouch smirked as he grabbed her hand. They started walking.
"Did my mom say anything to you while I was getting ready?" Kallen asked, quite suddenly.
"No not really." Lelouch said innocently.
(Flashback)
"Hi, I'm Lucas." He said as Kallen's mom opened the door.
"Hello… Who are you?" She asked, trying to not make it sound rude.
"Oh, I think Kallen has mentioned me before?" He replied. This put a smile on her face.
"Come in." She said, "KALLEN! Wake up!" There was a thud, this made Lelouch smile.
"Well, Lucas. Are you here to walk my daughter to school?" She asked.
"Yes, also I wanted to meet you and ask you something." Lelouch smiled.
"HURRY! THERE'S SOMEONE HERE FOR YOU!" She suddenly screamed then looked at Lelouch again.
"What is it?" She asked.
"Well has she told you about a promise?" Lelouch started.
"Yes, I think I know what you're up to." She smiled. Lelouch smiled back, he pulled out something from his pocket.
"Did you have an idea about this?" Lelouch asked. She nodded approvingly.
"I can tell you're a nice boy, but please promise me you'll take care of her." She said with a serious face.
"Of course." Lelouch immediately replied.
(End Flashback)
"Are you sure?" Kallen asked suspiciously.
"Yes." Lelouch smiled. Kallen was definitely not convinced but they arrived and walked into class. Kallen didn't ask about his wish and didn't talk about anything before class began. The teacher came in and took roll, "Ah, Lucas and Kallen you're here." Then he proceeded in teaching the class.
During lunch, Lelouch and Kallen sat and ate together. They made small talk, then Lelouch came out with a more serious topic, "Today we have to go see the Black Knights."
"Why?" Kallen asked, stuffing her mouth with a sandwich.
"I plan on telling them that I'm alive." Lelouch answered. Kallen almost choked on her food.
"What?" She asked. "Why?"
"Cipher will found out who I am, I'm quite sure of it." Lelouch explained, "We need to prepare the world for the truth carefully." Kallen frowned, she was afraid that the Black Knights would shoot him the moment he told them that he was alive.
"But Lelouch-" Kallen tried to reason.
"No this is the only thing I could think of that would be the easiest." Lelouch interrupted, "I need you to be with me on this, okay?"
"Okay, Lelouch." Kallen whispered as she finished her sandwich. Lelouch kissed her slightly, "Thanks."
Sorry I haven't been writing as much, but I didn't really feel like it. (Revised)
