Here's chapter fourteen. Anyway I don't own code geass or any of the characters just the OC.

14. Geass vs Geass.

As Soul and Suzaku fought R.R lead the rest of the Blac Knights against the rest of Cornelia's forces, while the main forces were fighting each other, R.R was facing Darlton and Guilford at the same time.

"Damn, two on one sure is rough," R.R said.

"Do you really think you can just show up and interfere?" Darlton said.

"You would have been wise to stay out of this," Guilford, "you would have enjoyed you small time of freedom,"

"And there it is, that right there is why I can't stand you two, that annoying arrogance," R.R said annoyed, "especially you Guilford, you'd think losing before would teach you some humility,"

Guilford clenched his teeth as he felt frustrated at being reminded of his defeat.

"Slience!" Guilford yelled, "this time I'll kill you without fail,"

"Hmph, go ahead and try, if you think you can," R.R said confidently.

Guilford in his Gloucester charged at him with his Jousting Lance.

"Guilford wait!" Darlton called out, "don't go in alone!"

As Guilford was now in close range, R.R activated his Geass and froze him and Darlton, then drew his Assault Rifle and open fired at Guilford, then deactivated his Geass.

"What? how did you-" Guilford tried so say, but is cockpit ejected as his Gloucester was gunned down.

R.R smiled at being able to get rid of Guilford thanks to his strategy, 'Make him made, make him stupid, it's his own fault for falling for such a simple taunt,' R.R thought.

"Bastard," Darlton said, "what did you just do?"

"I'm under no obligation to answer you," R.R simply replied.

"Fine, then I'll force the answer out of you," Darlton said as he charged at R.R.

At a different part of the port, the Black Knights finish destroying a group of Portman.

"Good, with this we've taken out all the Royal Marines," Yoshida said.

"Okay, I'll contact Zero," Minami said.

Back with Zero, Kallen and Cornelia, Cornelia's Gloucester was damaged in several places and missing an arm.

"Damn you," Cornelia said.

"Okay, MK II finish it," Zero ordered.

"Yes sir," Kallen replied.

"Zero, do you copy?" Minami contacted.

"Minami, what the statis?" Zero asked.

"We've taken out the Royal Marines, all the Portmans have been destroyed, and R.R took out Guilford," Minami reported.

"Excellent," Zero said with a smirk.

Cornelia then takes out a Chaos Mine and throws it at the Guren releasing a wave of sharpnel, the Guren quickly dodges the sharpnel, and Cornelia uses this chance to drive away while her Gloucester releases chaff smoke to cover her escape. after the wave of sharpnel ended Kallen sees Cornelia is gone.

"She got away?" Kallen said, "Zero, do we go after her?"

"No, let her go," Zero instructed, 'this was good enough I suppose,'

With Cornelia as she was esxaping she tried contating Guilford but he didn't responded so she contacted Darlton.

"Darlton, come in," Cornelia said.

"Your Highness, I'm here," Darlton responded.

"Good you picked up, where's Guilford?" Cornelia asked.

"I'm afraid he's ejected," Darlton informed.

Cornelia clenched her teeth at that news, then ordered, "Darlton order all forces to retreat, there's no point in dragging this out any longer," Cornelia said.

"Understood," Darlton replied.

Back with Suzaku and Soul, they both were still fighting, and both their Knightmares had small damage. Before they could continue, they were both contacted by someone.

"Warrant officer Kururugi," Darlton contacted Suzaku, "retreat, the Viceroy has ordered all forces to retreat, cease any futher actions and fall back,"

"Soul, this is Zero," Zero contacted Soul, "we're retreating, Cornelia has flead the battlefield, there's no point in stay, get to our asigned escape point,"

They both stopped and stared at each others Knightmares after hearing those words and felt annoyed at having to leave before the fight could end.

'Soul/Suzaku, next time,' they both thought at the same time before driving away the meet up with their allies.


(Ashford Academy)

Shirley was in her room thinking about what happened the other day.

(Flashback)

Near the entrance gate of Ashford Academy, Shirley was sitting in a car with Villetta and was shocked at what Villetta told her.

"Two of my classmates?" Shirley asked.

"Yes, there is reason to believe that two of you classmates are collaborating with the Black Knights," Villetta said, "have you noticed anything suspicious about them?"

"No, I haven't," Shirley answered.

"Nothing at all?" Villetta asked again.

"Yes, I sure," Shirley replied.

"Okay, in that case, I could use your help," Villetta said.

"My help?" Shirley asked.

"Yes, I believe you could help me find a connection between these two and the Black Knights, and maybe even to Zero and Soul," Villetta said.

"But I don't get it, how could I help with that?" Shirley asked.

"You're close friends with both of them right?" Villetta said, "just keep a close eye on both of them, and if you see something then find out in detail, that should get you a lead,"

Shirley felt a wave of dread at what Villetta asked her to do.

(Flashback End)

'Lulu and Logan could be members of the Black Knights?' Shirley thought, 'It can't be, but then again what do I really know about them,'

Shirley then felt upset with herself for suspecting her friends, 'I'm sorry you two, I shouldn't be doubting you two like this, but...'


(The Next Day)

Members of the Student Council as well as the two honorary members were hanging out in the Student Council Room.

"You want to meet Princess Euphemia?" Suzaku asked.

"To thank her." Nina responded, "I just wanted to thank her."

"She risked her life to protect Nina during the hotel jacking. She stood right up and said "I'm Euphemia!" Right?" Milly said.

Nina smiled and blushed thinking back to how Euphie saved her.

"Really? I want to meet her, too!" Rivalz said happily.

"And too Rivalz?" Logan asked.

"Why is that?" Milly asked.

"She's a real princess!" Rivalz said with glee, "I could marry into royalty!"

"Your kidding right," Logan said.

"I'm sure that you will never meet her with such impure motives." Nunnally said.

"You can say that again," Rolo said with a smile.

"Impure? That's a little harsh, isn't it, Nunnally?" Rivalz responded with his feeling hurt, "You're on my side, aren't you, Lelouch?"

"Sorry Rivalz, not this time," Lelouch said with a grin, "I'm pretty sure we can all see right through you, you not slick.

"Ahhh, come on would ya," Rivalz replied as he slumped.

"Anyway, I'd like to meet Princess Euphemia, too, if I could." Nunnally said.

Suzaku looked surprised at hearing that, but then saw Lelouch gesturing him to play along.

"Uh, It's just she's a member of the royal family and…" Suzaku replied when suddenly Arthur jumped on him and started scracthing him.

"Suzaku!" Shirley said going over to help.

"Not this again," Logan said annoyed.

"Err, hey, Arthur, ow ow!" Suzaku said in pain.


(Area 11 Government Bureau)

Cornelia was discussing things with Darlton and Guilford. Euphie was also there as well and they were both sitting on thrones.

"Being defeated in Saitama," Cornelia said, "then in Narita, and now in Port Yokosuka," Cornelia shook her hand as she was upset, "we,ve suffered such humiliating loses at the hands of Zero and Soul, and the Black Knights, and too many lives of our soldiers have been lost, including my Royal Guard and now the Royal Marines as well. If this keeps up, I can only imagine that I'll be removed as Viceroy."

Both Guilford and Darlton felt dread and wanted to do something about the situation as they each blamed themselves for what was happening.

"It seems that in this last operation," Darlton said, "as well as Narita and Saitama, the Black Knights came specifically for the reason."

"Yes it seems everytime they make a move whether it's going against us or any raids they participate to stump out criminal activity and corruption, they overall goal always leads to one desire," Guilford said.

"And that you Your Highness," Darlton pointed out, "In this last operation and also at Narita, they were specifically targeting you,"

"Eliminating the leader is a standard tactic." Cornelia replied.

"They also eliminated Prince Clovis." Guilford pointed out.

"Zero and Soul are not merely fighting Britannia." Darlton said, "they have a deep hatred for the royal family, and they want blood."

Euphie was silent and thought back to her meeting with Zero and Soul back at Lake Kawaguchi

(Flashback: Lake Kawaguchi Hotel)

"Euphemia, you were willing to sacrifice yourself for the commoners." Zero said, "You haven't changed."

Euphie was surprised by his words.

(Flashback End)

Euphie was deep in thought and believed she had a theory that she might know who was behind Zero's mask, but didn't know how to confirm her theory.

Cornelia looked over the Euphie and stood up from her throne.

"Careful, Euphie." Cornelia said.

"Huh?" Euphie responded looking at her sister.

Cornelia placed her hand on Euphie's cheek.

"I don't want another crisis like that at the hotel." Cornelia said.

"Why not assign a knight to her?" Guilford suggested.

"A knight?" Euphie responded and Cornelia looked at Guilford.

"Yes, if we assign one knight as a permanent sentinel," Guilford said, "then we can build a complete royal guard unit around him. As sub viceroy, Princess Euphemia has the right to a personal champion."

Euphie thought about Guilford idea.


(A.S.E.E.C. Knightmare Hanger)

Lloyd wastyping on a computer and looking over the data he got from the battle at Port Yokosuka. Cecile came in and looked at the computer screen.

"I'm really worried about Suzaku," Cecile said.

"Really?," Lloyd replied, "I suppose that would be the case with what happened last night, I must admit the Black Knights really outwitted us,"

"Suzaku was quiet upset he with how he could stop Soul when they fought last night," Cecile said.

"Yes, but unlike the last time he fought Soul and the Agravaine," Lloyd said, "he didn't lose this time,"

"Yes, but he didn't win either I think he's upset that their fight was unfinished," Cecile said, "I'm worried about his state of mind,"

"His state of mind you say?" Lloyd replied as he stopped typing and looked at Cecile.

"This thing about saving people's lives… at first I thought he was just, you know, sensitive, but now, I mean it's more like an obsession, isn't it?" Cecile said with worry.

"His performance data is still solid, right?" Lloyd said with a smile, "Is this a good time to put that new thing to a test with him?"

"But we're still fine-tuning." Cecile said, "What I'm saying is treating Suzaku like he's just another part of the machine could have serious consequences. We'd better deal with the human issue here first."

"Pardon me," Lloyd said with a smile, "but really aren't you taking care of him in place of someone else?"

Cecile flinched a bit and was taken aback.

"I'm not sure about that, but…" Cecile said.

"Hmmm?" Lloyd spoke with curiosity.

"You're quick to catch on the something silly, aren't you?" Cecile said in a chearful tone.

"I'm the boss, so you're stuck with me." Lloyd said amused.


(Tokyo Settlement)

Lelouch was walking down the street in the shopping area, without noticing Shirley who had seen him and started to follow him.

'Lulu, where are you going?' Shirley wondered as she followed him.

Then she saw Lelouch walk inot a shore and then she walking inside to. When she entered she saw it was an antic store with a old man behind the counter and surprisingly to her Lelouch was know where to be seen.

"Yes, can I help you," the old man asked.

"Oh, ahh no thank you," Shirley said before leaving.

Unbeknownst to Shirley to man's eyes had glowing red shine around his pupils indicating that he was under the control of Lelouch's Geass.


(Black Knights Mobile Base)

The core members of the Black Knights were sitting on the coach and relaxing.

"Man, it was so close! We had her right there!" Tamaki said.

"Next time, we'll definity get Cornelia." Kallen said.

"Ah, don't sweat it." Tamaki said waving his hand.

"Yeah, Tamaki got thrashed in the first minute." Sugiyama joked and all of them laughed expect Ohgi who was looking down.

"The JLF warship…" Ohgi said upset.

"Hm?" Kallen spoke.

"Why did it blow up?" Ohgi asked.

"It self-destructed." Tamaki answered simply.

"We did contact them and say we would help, right?" Ohgi pointed out.

"Yo, that's why Zero and Soul took action. I know. They wanted to see their faces!" Tamaki said before laughing again.

"You're not doubting Zero and Soul again, are you?" Kallen asked Ohgi.

"Well, it's just that…" Ohgi spoke.

"Yes, it's just that the timing was too convenient, right?" Diethard interjected coming down the stairs. "So what are you going to do, if you find out Zero and Soul were behind it?"

"What are you trying to say?!" Kallen said standing up.

"Yeah, Diethard! I heard you got wussy and ran away! A gutless Brit's got a lot of cojones talking trash to his superiors like that!" Tamaki said in a condesending tone.

"I was making an assessment, that's my new job here." Diethard said with a smile, "Ohgi, you agreed to it, too, didn't you?"

"Oh, huh?" Kallen spoke now turning to Ohgi.

"Ah, that's right. And Zero and Soul approve it." Ohgi said.

"By the way, what did Soul want to talk to you about before the mission last night?" Yoshida asked.

"They wanted me to help make this," Diethard said opening his laptop.

"Huh? what is that?" Kallen asked.

"It's a speically made virus, it's one cability of hacking into the Area 11 Government Bureau and taking down to buildings entire security system." Diethard explained.

The other were shocked and surprised that Diethard made such a virus.

"No way, how'd you make something like that?" Tamaki asked.

"I didn't make it alone," Diethard said closing the laptop, "I was able to make it thanks to the data provided by me from R.R,"

"Wha? but where did he get that?" Sugiyama asked.

"Actually Zero told me about that," Ohgi pointed out, "back at Narita, the reason R.R didn't take part in the battle was because he and Sayoko sneaked into the G-1 and lost the data from it's main computer,"

"Oh, that explains it," Tamaki said, "still crazy that they pulled it of without being seen,"

"R.R, the only times he's not with Zero or Soul is when he's doing something important," Kallen said.

"That's true, wonder where they found someone like him," Ohgi said.


(Narita)

Rolo was walking to the ruined streets of Narita. While there he noticed the military was still around.

"It's just like Lelouch said, even though a bit of time has past, the military won't leave Narita intil all the damage done by the landslide is gone." Rolo said.

Rolo then took out phone and started to call Lelouch.

"Lelouch said to see if the military found any evidence connecting the JLF with Kyoto from the wreckage by now, but since they haven't found anything then things should be fine,"

"Oh I wouldn't say things are fine," A male voice said, "at least not for you anyway Rolo Raymond,"

Rolo flinched and turned around to see someone standing behind him and it was the silver haired man from last night.

"Who are..." Rolo began to ask but before he could released some kind of from his sleeve which made Rolo fall to the ground.

"Err, what? nerve gas?" Rolo asked.

"That's right, sorry but I could risk you using your Geass on me." The man said with a grin.

Rolo was shocked by what he said.

"Surprised aren't you," The man said with a laugh, "lets see, your Geass can freeze people's sense of time for a few seconds and needs a cool down time just a long, you mainly use it for sneaking around but it also comes in handy for battle, but it's not very useful if youself can't move,"

"How do you know all that?" Rolo asked still unable to move.

"I know everything, like how your a member of the Black Knights, your code name is R.R, not very creative if you ask me, and how Lelouch and Logan are Zero and Soul," The man said shocking Rolo again.

"Don't worry, I was going to kill you, but then I thought of a better idea," The man said walking closer and removing his shades, showing both his eyes had Geass.


(Black Knights Mobile Base)

Lelouch was inside one of his private rooms, it was a narrow room with dim red lighting, a mini bar and a large TV, Lelouch was wearing his Zero costume without the mask. C.C was also there cutting up a Pizza. C.C then turned on the TV.

"The Black Knights sure have grown haven't they." C.C commented.

"Yeah," Lelouch said picking up a dart and aims it at a dart board, "The Britannian rule will be overthrown by Zero, Soul and the Black Knights, so naturally we need to expand," Lelouch throws the dart and it hits it's mark.

"Now you've got the resistance calling themselves Knights." C.C then cut herself a slice of pizza and took a bite, "I was wondering what you were planning when you annihilated the JLF."

"Annihilated?" Lelouch said with a smile as he threw another dart, "please, you're exaggerating, we just got rid of people who were hiding in the Indian Military District."

"Along with the Britannian Navy?" C.C asked.

Lelouch was preparing to throw another dart, "As they say, kill two birds with one stone."

"You seem keen on destroying other resistance groups," C.C said looking at the TV.

"The Black Knights are heroes." Lelouch replied, "To us, Britannia and the other resistance groups are anything but heroic," Lelouch them threw the dart and then picked up another one. "That said, if we find something or someone we can use, we will. No one can say no."

"Your Geass power of absolute obedience deforms people's will," C.C said, "you do realize it may rob people of their principles or their will to live."

"I know," Lelouch said, "But creating a world in which Nunnally can be happy is my number one priority, I'll gladly dirty my hands for her." Lelouch prepared to throw another dart.

"Dirty your hands? Then tell me, whose clean hands will be there to wipe away her tears?" C.C asked.

Then question broke Lelouch's concentration, and made him miss his mark. Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"What is it?" Lelouch asked.

"Zero," Ohgi said through the door, "there's a group from Hiroshima who wants to join us."

"I see," Lelouch said putting on his Zero mask, "Let them join if they want to work under me."

The door opens and Ohgi, Kallen and Minami are there, "Also Diethard said he finished the assignment he asked him to do," Minami said.

"That's good, I'll speak with him later." Zero said.

Kallen then turns to C.C. "And C.C, was it? you need to learn how to use a Knightmare Frame..."

"I'm in the middle of brunch." C.C interjected.

Kallen was surprised by that answer and clenched her teeth in frustration and C.C just took another bite of her pizza and sent her a grin.

Then suddenly Zero's phone started ringing, he then checks.

"Oh, a message from R.R?" Zero then checks the message, 'Come to Narita, there's a problem,' "A problem?"

Zero then turned to the others, "Forgive something important has come up, ask Soul the meet the group in Hiroshima,"

"Uhh, Alright then." Ohgi said as Zero left.


(Narita)

Lelouch was now in his casual clothes and got of the train that arrived at Narita, Lelouch then left the train station and arrived in the area within Narita where work was still being done due to the rockslide. Then his phone started ringing again. He looked at the caller ID and saw it had Rolo's name and he answered the phone.

"I'm here. Where are you calling from?" Lelouch asked.

"Haha, where indeed?" the man from before said over the phone.

Lelouch was shocked to hear a voice he didn't recognize.

"Who are you?!" Lelouch asked as he narrowed his eyes, "You scum! What have you done with Rolo?"

"Ooh, temper, temper," the man taunted, "you should calm down, you don't want Rolo to suffer do you."

"What the hell did you do with him?!" Lelouch relied angrily.

"You want to know?" the man said, then Lelouch turned around and saw that he was right behind him, "Then you'll have to accept my challenge. You specialize in this, don't you?" he showed Lelouch a white chess piece.


(Port Yokosuka)

The sun was setting in Area 11 and Ohgiwas stood by the pear at Port Yokosuka and looked out at the sea thinking back to last night.

"Zero… You weren't yourself yesterday." Ohgi said, "Why do I have this feeling?"

Ohgi then looks down and sees an passed out Villetta lying in a pile of wreckage, still alive and passed out due to blood lose, Ohgi then goes over to her.

"Are you all right?" Ohgi called out, "Talk to me, hey, come on." Ohgi then checked her pluse, "You're alive."

"So, it's you, Zero…! Soul...!" Villetta said while passed out before becaming quiet and Ohgi was shocked.


(Narita)

Lelouch followed the silver haired man into a railcar that was going up. They sat in their seats and there was a chess board with chess pieces set up. Lelouch looked and was worried about Rolo and his well-being. Lelouch looked at the chess board and deduced that this was a distraction as he figured that it was to lure him away from the sight of other people. His opponent just looked at him and smiled.

"You know I've never actually played this game before, don't you?" He said.

Lelouch was trying to figure what he was trying to do and he was still worried about Rolo and wondered where he was. Lelouch was trying to figure out what this guy's angle was since he knew he was Zero. He wondered what he was going to do.

"There's an opening you can use?" He said suddenly.

Lelouch was suddenly out of his thoughts and looked at the chess board.

"Shouldn't you be thinking about the game a bit more?" He said as he moved one of his pieces, "You could lose."

Lelouch looked at the chess board then back to his opponent. "You liar, you have played this game before!"


(Black Knights Mobile Base)

Soul, Kallen and Minami were in the mobile base and Soul just finished meeting with the group from Hiroshima.

"The meeting was successful," Soul said, "now we have another group on our side,"

"Yeah, and that means the Black Knights will expand futher," Minami said.

"Correct, by the way, where's Zero?" Soul asked, "I assumed he would be at the meeting?"

"Oh, Zero want to Narita to meet with R.R," Kallen informed, "he said there was something important that came up,"

"Something important?" Soul asked.


(Narita)

Lelouch was shocked at what he was seeing and what he was looking at was that he was actually being beaten in this chess match.

'Impossible…' Lelouch said in his head, 'He's got me trapped?!'

Lelouch's opponent made his next move and grinned as he was satisfied with what he was doing.

"So, can we just call it my game, hmm?" He said.

The railcar stopped at the station and the impact knocked over all the chess pieces. Lelouch was shocked as he couldn't believe that he had lost.

'How could he predict every move I made?' Lelouch said in his head, 'Who is this guy?!'

"Didn't C.C tell you about me?" He said.

Lelouch was surprised that he mention C.C and looked at him.

He clapped having read Lelouch's mind. "Well done! In one lightning moment, you came up with 14 possible identities for me." He said taking over his shades and revealing his Geass in both his eyes, "And one of them is precisely correct. I am Mao."

'He has Geass, too!' Lelouch thought activating his Geass.

"Let's see now. For your Geass, you have to look directly into someone's eyes." Mao said, "Oh, I know all the rules for your little gift."

"You can read minds!" Lelouch deduced.

"You could call my Geass mind-reading." Mao said.

"What the hell did you do to Rolo?!" Lelouch demanded, "Tell me! What did you do, kill him?!"

"Of course not! He's right there," Mao said pointed behind Lelouch.

Lelouch turned around and saw through the window on top of the stair of the station was Rolo tied to a chair.

"It's Rolo!" Lelouch said.

"His Geass is pretty useful, but if he can't move then it's useless. So now then, let the vital punishment games begin." Mao said.

Lelouch rushed out of the railcar and ran to reach Rolo.

"Rolo! are you all right?" Lelouch asked but before he could reach him Mao fired a gun and the bullet passed Lelouch which made him stop.

"No, no, I didn't say you could untie him yet." Mao said in a playful tone.

"You bastard." Lelouch said angrily.

"Sorry Lelouch, I didn't see him coming." Rolo said, "I didn't think anyone but us had Geass,"

"Hahahahaha, that's funny because I always knew there were others besides me," Mao said with a laugh.

"It's not your fault Rolo," Lelouch reassured, "none of us could have predicted that this would happen,"

"That's true and that's why this was so easy," Mao mocked, "I could have grabbed either of you, but I choose him cause it was more fun,"

'Can he read any thoughts, or only those on the surface?' Lelouch said in his head, 'Are there conditions to his Geass, a time lag, time limit? And what's he after? If he plans to kill me, then…'

"Keep thinking about it." Mao taunted, That's your strong point, right?Thoughts spinning round and round and round…"

"Shut up!" Lelouch interjected with hatred towards Mao, "You're going to pay for this,"

"Really, and will you do that?" Mao asked, "Your mind is your strongest tool and I can read it, that means you can't do anything I won't see caming."

Lelouch clenched his teeth. "Why did you capture Rolo in the first place?" Lelouch asked.

"Simple, I'm going to torture you a bit, after all just killing you won't be any fun," Mao replied.

"What?" Lelouch spoke.

"First I'm going to kill him since his Geass can be quite troublesome, and then I'm going to enjoy seeing you in despair at watching him get killed," Mao said in a sadistic tone, "and then having to explain to your best friend that you let his brother die, and then both of you will be in complete disarray and taking you out will be easy,"

"You're insane," Rolo said with hatred.

'I see.' Lelouch said in his head, 'He reads minds and that makes it easy for him to confuse and control others!'

"Yes, that's right." Mao said outloud.

Mao then pointed his gun at them.

"Now it's time to end this!" Mao declared.

Lelouch looked wide eyed and tried to quickly think off something, Rolo looked worried for his life and braced himself. But then someone suddenly shot a bullet and it knocked the gun out of Mao's hands. Lelouch, Rolo, and Mao were all shocked and they wondered what happened.

"Who did that?" Mao asked surprised. "Why didn't I sense them there?" Mao guessed why and realized. "It couldn't be!"

"That's enough Mao," A female voice said.

Mao looked and was surprised to see someone he had not seen in years and Lelouch and Rolo were also shocked to see her as well. It was C.C who had her long green hair tied to twin ponytails and wore a lavender dress with black boots with white socks and wore a brown belt around her waist. C.C held a gun towards Mao and Mao was ecstatic to see C.C again.

"I just knew it!" Mao said happily, "We finally meet again. It's you! It's really you!"

C.C had a sad expression as she looked at Mao.

"You look beautiful," Mao continued happily, "C.C.! I love that new look!"

"Mao..." C.C said.

Suddenly Sayoko appeared and charged at Mao and punched him in the jaw hard and sent him stumbling back into the railcar. The door closed and the railcar started to move again and went downwards. Mao went to the window and his earphones fell off.

Mao's earphones were playing recording of C.C voice.

"Are you awake, Mao?"

"Forgive me, Mao."

"That's the way. See, Mao? You can do it!"

"Thank you, Mao."

"C.C., I'll come to see you as soon as I can! I promise! I promise!" Mao called out as the railcar was leaving.

"Mao… I never thought you would come out among people." C.C said watching him leave.

Lelouch saw him leave and then calmed down and ran to untie Rolo.

"Rolo! hang on," Lelouch said reaching him.

"Master Lelouch," Sayoko said approaching him and handing him a Kunai.

"Sayoko," Lelouch said taking the Kunai, "why are you here, and C.C as well for that matter?"

"Master Logan sent me." Sayoko answered.

"Big brother did?" Rolo asked.

"That's right, after he had heard that master Lelouch went to Narita saying there was a problem he remembered that you wher supposed to be at Narita as well," Sayoko explained, "but when he tried calling you you didn't pick up he sent me to find out what was going on."

"I see," Lelouch said freeing Rolo.

"Well, we're lucky you came," Rolo said standing up, "for a second there, I thought I was a goner."

"Yeah, that was way closer then I would have liked," Lelouch said.

C.C then approached and stopped in front of them.

"Are you both all right?" C.C asked.

"C.C, that reminds me, Logan sent Sayoko but why are you here?" Lelouch asked.

"While I was on my way to Narita, Miss C.C was already on her way here and I simply tagged along, it was as if she knew you'd be here," Sayoko informed.

"What?" Rolo said surprised, "C.C how is that possible?"

"When I make a contract with someone, I can more or less sense where they are, and if they're still alive or not." C.C replied.

"And this Mao? what the story on him?" Lelouch asked.

"I know, I should have explained this sooner, let's go back I'll tell youon the way," C.C said.

They all made their way back to the train station and boarded the train to leave Narita and back to the Tokyo Settlement.

To Be Continued

And that's the chapter, and theres the end of the battle of Port Yokosuka and the beginning of Mao, though to be honest I'll planning the finish Mao in the next chapter. I don't really care for him and I just want to get on with it. Anyway with this we've gotten closer to the next big event and I'm glad at how much progress I've made in a short amount of time I was expecting it to take longer. And I'm looking forward to the next battle that will take place after dealing with Mao, though just to let you know it will be pretty similar to how it goes in the original with a few differences, I could have made something different but I don't care enough about Mao to try.

So see you next time, hope you enjoyed, and have awesome day.
