Author's Note: Alright. Do bear in mind that this is my first time so if possible, give a review to see how I can improve.
P.S. I like seeing some of the less popular pairings like this one.

Holy Britannian Empire Mainland - Pendragon
"Presenting Knight of Twelve, Lady Monica Krushevsky!"
The doors opened to reveal what one would call a beauty. A blonde in her teens with a stunning figure. Wearing the Knight of Rounds uniform, Monica walks towards a man sitting on a throne and kneels. The man is none other than the 98th Emperor of The Holy Britannian Empire, Charles zi Britannia.
"Hail Your Majesty! I have come in response to your summons."
"Rise Knight of Twelve. What do you think of our newest territory to the Empire so far?"
"Area 11, formerly known as Japan, is the latest addition for the Empire. It possesses strategic value as it can serve as a base of operations against the Chinese Federation, and is the leading supplier of Sakuradite. While of great importance, management and security is clearly inadequate as there are currently large activities regarding both terrorism and corruption."
"I see. Knight of Twelve, I have a task for you of great importance."
'Great importance? If so, why not a Knight much more skilled than I?' Monica wondered, now standing upright.
"As of tomorrow, you are to be permanently assigned in Area 11's Tokyo Settlement. You are to investigate and eliminate all who threatens Britannian assets in the area, disposing and intimidating both terrorist forces and the incompetent swine they call the nobility. And since you will be there permanently, it is recommended that you will also attend an educational facility in Area 11 as it might help you in the long run. Perhaps you might find some allies you can count on. Go Knight of Twelve, and do not fail."
"Of course Your Majesty." Monica then walked back to her private quarters, contemplating on the emperor's task. 'Counter-terrorism? Has the situation become so bad that they need a Knight of Round to fix it? I know Prince Clovis is a bad administrator but I never thought he would be this terrible.'
"Hey, Monica!" Monica then turned her attention to the source of the call. Knight of Nine, Nonette Enneagram.
"Is there something you need Nonette? I really need to start packing my belongings. I'm being transferred to Area 11. Permanently."
"Permanently? Such a shame. I'll miss you quite a lot when you'll not be here. Well, I better help you pack then."
"Thank you Nonette."
The pair then entered Monica's room. It is quite plain with hints of Slavic touch. On her desk is a Matryoshka doll, hanging on the wall is a painting of Warsaw, and there is a samovar on another table.
The packing took four hours but the two are nearly done. While finishing the room, Nonette gets a hold of a box full of letters. She opens it, reads a few papers and smirks. 'She is still in love.'
"Hey Monica~, these letters..." This gets Monica's attention and upon seeing what Nonette was reading, she then gets quite a red face.
"H-hey! Those are private! Give it back!"
"Saved letters of Prince Lelouch? Adorable. To think you still love him." Nonette grinned upon seeing her colleague's reaction.
"I-it's not like that at all. Those are... are... are part of my prince..." Monica murmured the last part.
"What was that?" Nonette was just teasing at this point.
"Just give them back Nonette."
" Ooh, this is a good one. Dear Monica, the beauty of the flowers here in Aries Villa can only be matched by yours. I often think about our times together and when we first met. I wish we can spend some time together this weekend. You know what? That's what I'm gonna do. Expect me to come to visit you next Saturday. Yours only, Lelouch. This is some good stuff. I've gotta share this with the rest." Nonette then proceeds to run, looking for the rest of the KoR.
"Nonette! You better give those back!" Monica shouted as she ran after her, only to meet a locked door where Nonette and most of the KoR are resting. She then managed to enter the room only because Nonette finished reading the letter to Gino, Anya, and Luciano.
"Nonette you little-"
"Oh, did little Ms Prince Lover get angry?" Luciano Bradley, Knight of Ten, mocked.
"Who knew that she is still in love with the dead prince? Sounds kinda necrophiliac to me." Gino Weinberg, Knight of Three, laughed.
"Recorded." Anya Alstreim, Knight of Six, said as she took a picture of the flustered blonde.
"Come on now Monica. This might be the last time we will see you. Why not have some fun?" Nonette said. She finally returned the letter.
"Fine. It was nice having with you guys, save for Bradley." Bradley looked like he had sudden chest pain from that. "Now I must get going. My plane for Tokyo is gonna leave soon. Goodbye." Monica then walked back to her room to get her items. Her face filled with embarrassment from the fact that most of the KoR now know her crush for the long thought dead prince.
"Godspeed Monica." Gino said as he starts wiping his tears. He then gets a bottle of whiskey to drown his sorrow.
"I am looking forward to her exploits." Luciano smiled.
"Do write us a letter some time!" Nonette called.
"I suppose it will be quite lonely without her." Anya remarked, still not showing any signs of emotion.
Monica then finished packing her things and went to the airport. As she stares at the sky in the aeroplane she was in, she wonders. 'I wonder if you are still alive Lelouch. And if you are, why didn't you come back?'
Area 11 - Ashford Academy
A certain raven-haired person is currently half asleep in class. His purple eyes barely holding on. Only to finally be awake when the professor called for the class' attention.
"Alright, class. We have a new student joining in today. And she is quite, um, significant so please don't trouble her too much. You can come in now Ms Krushevsky."
A blonde in the usual Ashford uniform enters the room. Lelouch's eyes widened as he did not hear that name in years. The name of his childhood friend.
"Good day fellow students. My name is Monica Krushevsky. Knight of Twelve and currently a student of Ashford Academy. Please treat me like any normal student here. I don't really like any special favours as I am here as a student, not as a Knight."
'Monica... Still a beauty like before... Wait... I need to get out of here quick before she sees me.'
"Quite an eyecatcher isn't she Lelouch? Lelouch? Where are you going?" Rivalz, Lelouch's friend, asked.
The whole class started talking amongst themselves. Why on earth is a Knight of Round here in Ashford Academy? Where on earth is Lelouch going?
Monica then turns her head to see a certain purple-eyed student rushing down for the door. To say she was shocked is an understatement.
'Oh fuck. She saw me.'
"L-Lelouch? Is that you? You're alive!" Monica, overjoyed by her childhood friend/love in the flesh, began rushing towards Lelouch. Just as Lelouch was gonna dash for the exit, Monica pulled him over for a deep hug. The class is silent, stunned that the Prince of Ashford is known by the Knight of Twelve.
"Professor, may I have a talk with Ms Krushevsky in private?"
"But Lamprouge, class is about to start."
"Professor, I insist. I know I often skip classes, but this time it is for business."
"If you insist. I'll excuse you two for the hour."
"Thank you, professor." Said both Monica and Lelouch at the same time.
Ashford Academy - Student Council Office
The two made their way to the Student Council office, both not realizing they were holding hands. When the two finally entered the room and closed the door, Lelouch was met with another hug from Monica.
"You're alive. It's you, isn't it? This isn't a dream, right? Do you have any idea how much I've missed you? Why didn't you come back?" Tears of joy fell from Monica's eyes. The sight of the man she loved ever since childhood made her mind spin.
"Calm down Monica. Calm down. Take a deep breath." Lelouch sighed from thinking of the sudden stressful events that might happen in the future now that Monica knows he is alive. "What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be somewhere else? Maybe in Euro-Britannia or something."
Monica took a deep breath and calmed down. "I was permanently sent here under orders of the emperor for counter-terrorism and anti-corruption duties. I thought I was gonna kick some ass and not confessing my childhood crush."
"Childhood what?" Lelouch, being the kind of guy who really inexperienced in terms of romance, questioned Monica's statement.
"Are you really that dense? I said childhood crush! Y-you are the one I love, e-even in death." Monica stammered the last part when she realized what she was saying.
"Quite bold of you to confess to me, Monica. I can still remember you having second thoughts of offering me flowers years ago." This caused Monica to flush tremendously. Who wouldn't blush when confessing to one's crush after all? "Yet after years of hiding from Britannia, you know who I thought of when someone says the word 'beautiful' or 'love'? That person is you." Lelouch maintained his cool look on the outside, but he was screaming internally about how that was such a terrible try on being smooth.
Lelouch expected a laugh from Monica for his pathetic excuse of a flirt. What he was met with instead is a tackle from her with his lips pressing against hers. They are on the floor, Lelouch's back against the wall. Reminiscing the joyful past that made both of them smile inside. As they were having a heated makeout session, the doors opened to reveal four students. The Ashford Student Council.
"I'm telling you, Nina! Lady Krushevsky knows Lelouch!" Rivalz insisted.
"Oh stop lying Rivalz. Even Shirley wouldn't believe that! Isn't that right?" Nina scoffed. The genius isn't one for gossip.
"Huh? What? Did you say something? Hey Milly, is it true that Lulu knows the Knight of Twelve?" Shirley asked. She was daydreaming about Lelouch.
"I don't know. Come on we've got work to do." Milly then opens the office's door only to have the entire council see Lelouch being dominated by A Knight of Round.
Shirley fainted.
Milly grinned.
Rivalz jaw dropped.
Nina took a picture intending to send it to Twotter.
Lelouch and Monica, upon seeing the council, immediately chased towards Nina.
"Delete that photo or you will face the wrath of Monica Krushevsky!" Monica shouted as she tackled Nina. Her phone sent flying into the air only to be caught by Lelouch. Monica let out a sigh of relief 'Thank goodness Lelouch caught it.' But his expressions showed immense fear and anxiety.
"Oh shit."
"Oh shit what Lelouch?"
"My finger pressed the post button..."
And thus starts the hectic events that will come for both Lelouch vi Britannia, Eleventh Prince of the Holy Britannian Empire, and Monica Krushevsky, Knight of Twelve.
Author's Note: And that is a wrap. Since this is my first time writing fanfiction, this isn't of the best quality so leave a review if you want to.
See you in the next chapter.
