Epilogue: It's Only the Beginning
Hey everyone! It's me sakuraphoenix, and I'm back with the final chapter! To the guy who reviewed, it's called 'I didn't finish the story yet', so of course that part would be as bad as the ending! Don't worry; hang onto your seats, because this last chapter will answer some of your questions.

Enjoy!
I was standing in front of the grave that Nunnally and I placed for Lelouch on the only spot untouched by Britannian hands. A small lake stood below the hill I was on as I placed a white lily on Lelouch's grave. Even though I saw him die in front of me, a part of me can't accept that he's gone and is still alive. Its wishful thinking, but it's a wish I wish could come true. The world has gotten a lot better since that eventful day. Kallen returned to being a student, while I was forced to drop out of Ashford, but I still took my senior exams, so I have my high school diploma. The money once spend for war has now been focused on solving poverty and world hunger, and a lot of bad things have been blamed on us, mostly you though, maybe it's because people find it easier to blame someone with a name rather than a piece of technology named 'Damocles'. After I denied my claims to the throne, Nunnally became the empress of Britannia, under the watchful eye of Suzaku and whoever wears the mask of the Black Rose now. C.C. returned my costume, thinking that I would one day need it, but I don't see that day happening soon. Whatever the case, the world is free of the past, and is able to move forward into the future. I wonder if you're laughing that everything went according to plan. Nevertheless, there are still problems we have to work out ourselves. Suddenly, I found myself at a cart with someone at the reigns. It can't be, can it?
"I said that Geass was the power of the king which would condemn you to a life of solitude. I think maybe that's not quite correct. Right, Lelouch?" asked C.C.
The man on the cart smirked, and I know that smirk anywhere! Lelouch! You're really alive! You're like C.C. now, aren't you? An immortal with a Geass Code. I guess that makes me one of the last ones with a Geass power. I heard the sound of a duel runner approaching, and when I turned, I saw Kiryu park his runner.
"You know, I stand corrected. I think blue is your color." Kalin said as he complemented me on my outfit
"Arigato, Kiryu-kun." I said
"You don't have to be so formal, and you're looking cheerful for someone who's visiting a grave. Out with it, what's wrong?" asked Kalin
"It's Lelouch. I just peeked into his mind. He's happy now." I said
"Well, I'm glad to hear that." Said Kalin
"There has to be a reason why you're here. You don't just follow a girl onto Mount Fuji after you've placed a tracking device on their runner." I said
"How did you know?" asked Kalin
"If you're as paranoid as I am, you'll know why." I said
"Yeah, good point. Sakura, I came to ask you something." Said Kalin
"Hmm?" I wondered
He pulled out a small ring box, and opened it up. Inside was a beautiful ring with a pink diamond heart. How did he afford it?
"Kiryu, how…" I started
"Lelouch gave this to me before he died. He said that it belonged to his mom. I didn't know why he gave it to me, but I think I know now. Sakura, I know we haven't known each other for long, but… will you marry me?" asked Kalin
"You call two years not long? You know me better than anyone else on this planet, so I think you know my answer." I said
"I do?" asked Kalin
"It's yes, yes, yes, a thousand times yes!" I exclaimed
Kiryu, with the brightest smile on the face of the earth, held my right hand, and slid the ring on my right ring finger.
"Sakura, I promise, we'll meet back here on our wedding day. Would you like that?" asked Kalin
"I would." I said
"I'm glad to hear that. I have to take care of some things first before then." Said Kalin
"Well, you know where to find me." I said
"Yeah, I know. I'll see you soon Your Highness." Said Kalin
"Don't call me that. My name is Sakura… Kururugi." I said
He lowered the visor on his helmet and drove away. When I couldn't see his duel runner anymore, I looked at my hand and smiled as the ring glinted in the sunlight.
"I'll be waiting… Kiryu." I said
And that's a wrap! I hope you liked the story until the very end. Please review, and until another day, I'm sakuraphoenix, saying I heart you, signing off. Kan dao ni!
