In this world some things were never meant to be, if certain tragedies did not happen and the world continued from there. How would the world be today? Would the world be better off in the end because of that tragedy or would it worse? The timeline is full of secrets and skeletons in the closet that people refuse to acknowledge.

Act 5

Chapter 2: Legacy Part 1

The nightmare comes down the street as quickly as possible with the cargo on its back, "I'm running low on energy where are you guys?!" The pilot said while being chased by the military. They began to rain bullets down on him like rain as 2 others go in the way of the fire.

"Ohgi! Get going before it's too late!" Tamaki says trying to buy him so time, "Hurry up!"

"Thanks!" Ohgi says making his way toward the Shinjuku Ghetto Ohgi looks behind him to see Tamaki's nightmare explode. "Damn it, Tamaki!"

"You don't have time to worry about it, don't let his death be for nothing, get that thing here right away before it's too late. Do you understand Kaname?"

"Yes sir…" Ohgi gets away to the Ghetto. He gets into the Hideout where they close the entrance before the Britannian Military come looking.

"I'm glad to see you in one piece Ohgi…" Kallen meets him outside of the nightmare, her facial expression telling the story she wished she could have gone, she was faster so Tamaki wouldn't have had to sacrifice himself.

"He has never steered us wrong before… Tamaki's death won't have been for nothing. We got what he wanted us to get," Ohgi looked up at the giant ball they had on the back of the nightmare.

Cornelia's troops fly into battle destroying the fleets quickly, "This low-born scum has no right to raise their swords to a Princess. The battlefield is mine and mine alone, surrender now and we'll let you live."

"Down with Britannia!" All of them yell as they begin to fire with all of their nightmare's, Cornelia just grins as she flies right through their bullets and rips through their nightmare's like they were wet paper. Cornelia had fallen right into their trap; they had an electromagnetic shield covering making her nightmare freeze before reaching the General.

"Let your Emperor feel our wrath!" He presses a button as the cannon is about to fire and take out Cornelia just as a plasma cannon comes from the sky destroying the General's flagship and the rest of his base with it.

"Gilford was that you?"

"N-No your highness it came from above." Gilford said out of relief as they looked up to see the Siegfried coming down from the sky.

"Your highness, I'm very glad to see I came in time for assistance." Jeremiah said as humbly as he knew how.

"Jeremiah?" Cornelia said, "If you're here then that means… Lelouch?" Another air ship comes down from the clouds and video chat opens. "I see my Night came at the perfect moment."

Cornelia placed her hand on her cheek, "Lelouch you know you're too young to be out on the battlefield already."

"Dear sister, I took both areas 14 and 15 with Schnizel, I think I can handle being your back up."

"You know I mean Nunnaly, she worries about you out here." She gave him a smile.

"She shouldn't worry so much about me, and neither should you Cornelia."

"I'm just trying to look out for you Lelouch, it's my job."

"Your job was to guard my mother, it isn't anymore Cornelia."

"Not as a Child of the Britannian Emperor, but as your sister Lelouch."

Lelouch caught off guard almost blushes from embarrassment, "Area 17 has been established, I'll be heading back to the Homeland."

(Aries Villa)

Rai opens his door, he looks to the right to see Cecile hit the ground. "I'm so sorry your sir…"

The nobleman looks at her with a worthless smug, "You're lucky I don't have you killed for stepping upon my noble feet scum." He walks off not speaking to Rai, and Cecile begins picking up the clothes she dropped which were Rai's whom she was the personal servant for.

Rai picks a few up, "Oh my God! I'm so sorry!" She says afraid she would hit him for dropping his clothes.

"Relax, that guy should really ease up on you. But that's like telling Britannia to stop growing; it's going to engulf the world." He offers his hand and she slowly takes it as he helps her up.

"It's a nice day, you work for me so take the day off I'll be busy the whole day and if I make a mistake I'll handle it myself."

"…Are you certain your highness?"

"Yes, enjoy yourself I insist." Rai begins to walk away.

"Um…"

"Yes Cecile?"

She smiles, "Happy Birthday."

"Thank you," Rai says as he walks down toward the garden.

As Rai begins to be greeted by the other nobles in the house around the corner 2 girls sat and talked, "I'm sure he'll love it! Give it to him." Nunnaly says.

Anya looks at the perfectly grown rose in her hand she had raised perfectly from a seed as if taken right from a magazine. "It's just a plant… what if he laughs at me?"

"He wouldn't do that," Nunnaly said still trying to convince Anya to go speak to him and give it to him as a present.

(Later that day Air Ship)

"Is that so?" Lelouch says he can't help but laugh.

"What is it?" Sitting next to him a white and gold outfit similar to what she would wear in the black knights, C2 asks Lelouch who was wearing his white and gold empire attire.

"Clovis was killed."

"You don't seem at all upset," C2 says.

"His arrogance was to get him killed one day, he's challenging me… that man."

"Challenging you?"

"I killed Kyoshiro Tohdoh who was close with that man; he killed my brother to challenge me."

"Really? So what will we do now?"

"Well we won't have much happy times until he is gone; we're going to Area 11 before Cornelia does, to face him head on."

"Hm…" C2 holds her stuffed toy closely, "I suppose we'll be postponing the wedding again eh Lelouch?"

"I'll have let you know," He says.

(Area 11) (Shinjuku Ghetto)

"You killed Prince Clovis… Do you have any idea what the Britannians will do to find his killer?!" Kallen yells.

"That's what I'm counting on," The man in the shadows says.

"Are you out of your mind?!" Kallen screams.

"Kallen!"

She straightens up, "Yes..?"

"I wouldn't do this if it weren't for the benefit of Japan and its people, we will take out the children one by one with their own weapon… Then force the Emperor to come and take us head on. We kill him then overthrow Britannia from under his feet."

"Are you sure..?"

"Of?"

"Can you do it… Can we defeat Britannia with you?!"

"Yes," He walks out of the shadows, "I am the son of the Genbu, The Prime Minister of Japan and the Student of the Great Kyoshiro Tohdoh…" He wore a black Japanese Kimono with a red dragon around it. "The Greatest Enemy of Britannia I am… Suzaku Kururugi."

Can one event change a person's life and alter it to the point that they would be unable to become the person fate chose them to be? Would it be better for the world if that person went from believing in one thing to another for the world or just for a certain people? Can innocence be taken in a moment because of the actions of others? Yes.
