Gundam 00: The Meaning of Zero

Somewhat-Past-Halfway-Point Omake

K'GoN, the Beginning of Suzaku's Prank War, and the End of Zero's Prank War

It was horrifying. The progeny of two separate universes, the monstrosity could barely be tolerated. It had the body of a Gundam (Exia, to be specific) and the limbs of a Knightmare Frame (Shinkiro). Upon its back, just above the GN Drive, was the Shinkiro's Float system, the X-shaped wings jutting out and emitting horrid black-red GN Particles. The worst part, its head, would've nauseated any respectable anime mechanic. It was the standard Gundam shape, but instead of the V-fin, it had Shinkiro's unique purple orb surrounded by gold, and in place of the faceplate was an enormous maw filled with fangs. Aside from the mouth, there was one other original characteristic of this mechanical Frankenstein. It was three inches tall.

"I will devour your soul!!!" the beastly thing roared (from its perspective), charging forward and attacking.

"er....Suzaku? Why is that thing gnawing at your boot?" asked Lelouch Vi Brittania, still dressed in the white robes in which he'd been slain, blood staining the chest.

"I dunno. It said something about my soles." Suzaku replied, clad in the famous Zero outfit, left side of the helmet/mask smeared with blood, and wielding the bloodstained sword with which he'd stabbed his best friend.

"FEAR ME!!!! For I am K'GoN, lord and master of all! BRING ME A SHRUBBERY!!" with that, the little abomination cackled, his high-pitched laughter giving everyone within hearing distance a headache. It was mercifully cut short when Suzaku's boot lashed out, smashing the tiny robot against the wall of the theater.

"Let's go." sighed Lelouch, the novelty of the small thing gone. The two went, sitting in the front row of the movie theater. Around them sat people, friends, enemies, and worthless eye-candy. Next to Lelouch sat Kallen, C.C, Rolo and Nunnally. Next to Suzaku were seated Gino, Anya, Lloyd and Cecile. Behind them were the students from Ashford Academy. In the section to the left moped the horridly maimed, emotionally scarred and otherwise harmed Brittanian Royals, with some others from the military. Among them were Charles Zi Brittania, Euphemia and Cornelia Li Brittania, Clovis La Brittania, and Schneizel El Brittania. To the right were the traitorous Black Knights and the United Federation of Nations, counting among their number Todoh, Li Xingke, The Four Holy Swords, Oghi, Tamaki, and Kaguya Sumeragi.

"Start the film." Lelouch ordered, turning in his seat and Geassing the man in the booth.

"GAAH!!" screamed Suzaku Kururugi, youngest ace ever in the Union Military. He'd had a terrifying and depressing nightmare. "Just a nightmare....just a nightmare." the ace tried to convince himself, attempting to eliminate the image of his friends splattered all over some unnamed battlefield from his mind. Then, he noticed something different. "Why are the sheets wet?" he lifted the covers, grimaced, and looked down to the floor next to his nightstand. He saw a bucket, around which pooled warm water. "GRAAAHHHAAAMM!!!!! BIIILLLLYYYY!!!!"

Outside, the two grinned, retreating down the hall, resetting numerous traps in their wake.

"See, I knew the old warm water prank would work!" Graham told Billy. Laughing, the two hid inside a closet, ears pressed to the door waiting for Suzaku to come out and trigger all the delicious prank traps. Neither knew exactly what they were getting into.

The four dangled above a pit, hung by their ankles with a dangerously thin loop of rope.

"I told you it was a bad idea to use the warm water prank!! I TOLD YOU!!!!" Tieria screamed at the top of his lungs.

"HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW THEY'D TAKE IT SO SERIOUSLY?!" Lockon cried, tears falling upside down from his face. Three of the Meisters were trapped there, along with the Strategic Commander. Above them, on a balcony, minds snapped by the embarrassing and humiliating pranks they'd been forced to endure, Zero and Setsuna stood. The Krugis boy was grinning, for the first and hopefully last time in this fanfiction. It crossed from ear to ear, stretching taught the skin of his head against his skull. He was dressed in a long, hooded black robe, wielding a large and excruciatingly sharp scythe. Zero, on the other hand, was seated in an expensive leather chair, wearing a classy business suit, and petting a large black cat lying on his lap.

"Please, man, FORGIVE US!!!" sobbed Hallelujah, Allelujah having retreated into the depths of his mind from the sheer horror of what was in the pit.

"You seem really remorseful." the now mad-man commented. "Very well, all is forgiven." At this, Sumeragi perked up, hopeful.

"Really?"

"Sure. You just have to go into the pit." The four began to cry, sob, laugh nervously and whatnot. Zero watched and listened for a moment, then turned to Setsuna. "Cut the rope." The teenagers horrid grin widened, and he swung the scythe with deadly accuracy. The quartet of clowns screamed, falling into the pit, some deciding to get it over with and already descending into insanity. The two counterattacking pranksters, leaned over the edge of the balcony, watching as the four dealt with the horrors inside. After a moment, they stood, Setsuna saying:

"I'm hungry."

"Well then, lets go get lunch. I'm sure we could convince the kitchen staff to whip us up something special." Zero suggested, he and Setsuna stripping off their costumes to the regular clothing worn under them.

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

In the theater, the broken and dejected corpse of K'GoN laid, refusing to be swept up by the broom. Unseen by anyone, the mechanical monstrosity's eyes glinted, malevolence in them.

Le Fin......for now.

A/N: Why isn't this an actual chapter, and/or file? I'll tell you. I've been getting overworked, and I needed something to appease the angry mob forming on my street. Oh, and if you're wondering whats in the pit......I have no idea. Ask Zero.

Animefan29: You're welcome. Yeah, I don't think it'd fit their operating methods either.

Infinite Freedom: Thank you. I can't comment on the rest, federal secret.

Velshard: 1: Yeah, I used your suggestion. Thank you, by the way. 2: Next chapter, I may use that. 3: Actually, I was thinking of the whole, "Saji with CB" thing. But that angle works too. In all actuality, there seems to be only five true GN Drives, as Fereshte used O Gundam's drive. 4: I will not reveal my plans for the Dylandy brothers yet. 5: there are several reasons I won't use this design. First, I hate G Gundam. Second, there is no way I'm gonna use a Gundam that uses that many beam weapons when it's destined for Tau GN Drives. Otherwise, I like it.
