Author's Note: Welcome to the first bonus chapter for Lelouch of the Talk Show! This will actually be AU to my story. It is something that, at the moment, have no idea what it will fully entail. Though it is also an idea I've been playing with for a little while. None of these extra chapters will be very long. Just putting that out there now. At this moment there is going be anywhere between two and four of them.
What I will say is one that is guaranteed will be focusing on when Charles woke up in the story. The problem in all honesty though is I have no idea what to do for that. Yet anyway. I don't want to make it too silly, but I will certainly take advantage of innate hilarity of the situation for some, hopefully, good laughs. As such the I don't know when the second bonus will be written and subsequently uploaded. Especially as I will be moving very soon. So my aim is to have this Special be uploaded before that so you have something from me.
Fear not though. I have plans. One such plan is that I will be writing an SAO one-shot. Since I haven't seen season 2 it will involve season 1. After the last episode. First I need to rewatch the show though as it has been several months since I first did so.
Inspiration: This story is the first fanfiction I've written that was inspired by a different one. Late Night Rebellion with Zero by nanoman79. Check it out if you want to see it the story that gave me an idea. Though it does get kind of nuts.
Disclaimer: I do not own Code Geass to any extent. At all.
"Zero found himself relieved that the news broke in the evening when he was with his Black Knights. He was quite certain gleeful laughter would be frowned upon for a Britannian student. Especially when the cause is the announcement that the Emperor was in an accident and had fallen into a coma." —Turn 01, Lelouch of the Talk Show
Turn 01.5
Bad Timing
Lelouch had a foreboding feeling as he pushed Nunnally towards the auditorium. He wasn't sure why, but this announcement from Britannia was coming on the heels of Euphemia's own announcement of the Specially Administrated Zone. Despite his conflicting feelings towards the idea, and by extension the princess herself, he knew she meant no harm by it. The fallen prince was worried about her.
To his annoyance he, and subsequently his sister, got there too early and were forced to sit in the front row. His friends, as they came with the siblings, were in the same situation. Lelouch tapped his fingers on the armrest impatiently. Ready for this to be over already so he can leave for the meeting with the Black Knights. Nunnally turned her head towards him and gently placed her hand on his arm. "Relax big brother. I'm sure Euphie will be okay."
The raven-haired teen smiled at his sister and forced himself to relax. He nodded, "I hope so." The blind girl smiled brilliantly before slipping her hand down his arm and into his grip. Trying to keep him calm in her own small way as she turned back to the front. He noticed the questioning looks from his friends that didn't know their connection to the royal family, but just shrugged it off. Hoping they would put the nickname down to his sister being unbearably cute as per usual.
He stared straight ahead as the broadcast began, but was surprised to not see the emperor. Though it certainly wasn't a bad thing in his mind. The amethyst-eyed prince straightened and began to pay closer attention as their half brother, rather than their father, started to speak. "Greetings. I am Schneizel el Britannia and the second prince of the Holy Britannian Empire."
As far as Lelouch could tell the White Prince was cool and collected though he knew something unexpected had to of happened. Something that happened to the emperor. The teen narrowed his eyes as the blonde man continued, "In light of recent events the empire has had no choice but to make an emergency statement." Most were expecting it involve Princess Euphemia's announcement, but were soon caught by surprise. "Last night the 98th Emperor, Charles zi Britannia, was in an unfortunate accident."
It took more willpower than he was willing to admit to refrain from smirking even as those around him gasped. "It was soon made clear that our Emperor was not going to wake up and has fallen into a coma. While he is recovering Odysseus eu Britannia, the first prince of the Empire, will act as temporary Emperor and I will continue on as the Prime Minister." His pale blue eyes showed the first sign of annoyance at that fact. Though it was impressively hidden from most everyone watching.
Lelouch's face was stony and revealed nothing even as his fellow students began to talk around him. His sister squeezed his hand, in worry over the emotions she could feel from him, and Milly watched him carefully. She knew full well what his opinion of the emperor was. "Have no fear. Our emperor is strong and will be back on his feet soon. All hail Britannia!" The chant exuded from the broadcast before it shut off.
The raven-haired terrorist thought he might just be in the clear. That he might successfully hold his thoughts back until they were in private. Lelouch could not have been more wrong than he was in that moment. It was a pair of students he didn't remember ever seeing before, who were sitting just behind him, that did it. "The emperor probably fell into the coma out of shock and outrage because of the ridiculous announcement from the Sub-Viceroy."
His friend nodded in agreement, "What else should we have expected from a Number lover?"
Something about their disgusting racism and Suzaku's glare towards them made the tight grasp on his emotions slip. A soft chuckle escaped him as he desperately tried to hold it back. Milly's widened eyes showed her panic, but, before she could try to stop it, his chuckle erupted into full-blown laughter. Everyone froze as the Ice Prince of Ashford laughed. It wasn't a laugh that would make the girls fall even harder for him or the boys jealous of him.
This laughter should only have been coming from a psychopath. Not the student council's vice-president. Lelouch's chilling laugh sent shivers down the spines of the entirety of the student body. He managed to choke out, "Pathetic! How dare he call Nunnally a weakling!" His laughter reached new gleeful heights even as some students began, quite hurriedly at that, to leave. To get away from him.
The blue-eyed girl quickly stood in front of him and shook his shoulders. "Be quiet Lelouch! I don't care how you feel about him! Stop before you ruin everything!" He continued to laugh for several moments more before her words registered. It took some effort, but he finally stopped even as he noticed his friends staring at him. Shirley, Nina and Rivalz were clearly horrified and had no idea what to think of what had just occurred.
Milly and Suzaku were both looking at him with understanding, knowing about his hatred of his father, and concern. His sister just held his hand tighter and frowned in worry. The prince coughed and shifted awkwardly, "This . . . is going to be difficult to explain." Kallen was studying him, partially in confusion, as she tried to fit this in with her view of the who he is.
The usually perverted blonde raised an stared at him unimpressed, "More than difficult Lelouch." Sighing she pinched the bridge of her nose, "Come on. Let's go to the student council room before you suddenly lose control, again mind you, and tell the room more things that you shouldn't." Milly motioned for the other members to follow her.
They began to exit through the backstage area so as to slip away from the regular students faster. At least those who were frozen in shock to their seats and could hear them talking. What knocked them out of it though was a surprise outburst from the sickly Kallen. Even as they left through the back entrance a loud yell pierced the tense silence in the room. "What the hell was that?!"
Lelouch didn't answer, much to her rising anger, until there was no one else around as he pushed Nunnally along. He looked in her direction, "Shouldn't that be obvious?" His eyes sharpened at the fiery red-head and his voice took on a commanding tone. One that sounded far too familiar for her to be comfortable with the idea of it coming from him. Then, as though it was normal as the blue sky, the raven-haired prince answered with a smile. "I hate Britannia and its most of its upper echelon. Though I, especially so, despise the Emperor and his Social Darwinism."
"Though you and I both know that you are quite aware of how I feel about the Empire. Do you not Q-1?"
Author's Note 2: I'm pretty sure I could have continued on, but I feel like that was a good place to do so. For one it was a good "WTF" moment for Kallen. Two? If I did continue on I could see this being longer than I really intended for it to be. This is AU for a reason. In fact this would likely go in a fairly different direction than it did originally when it comes down to it.
Not to mention the fact that it most certainly leaves you with questions and ideas that might just make you think. Think and wonder how it would continue forward despite the fact I won't do anything more with it. Though honestly if you feel up for it I won't stop you from making your own story based off this bonus. In fact I encourage it. I'll even check it out if you send me a link to it.
To be honest I wanted this bonus to be funny, but I had nothing. Oh well. Still interesting to write. Quick too. Wrote all of it last night. Except for the first AN. The I had this chapter ready to be started. So I wrote all of it from the first word of the actual chapter last night.
