It had been a couple of months since the battle with the Fallen and Area 11 was just back on its feet, NEST and the Autobots had been helping that process, as for the students of Ashford Academy it was a week out from graduation,
"I'm so excited finally the end is in sight" Shirley screamed excitedly
"Remember Shirley we still have two weeks left" Milly said signing a document
"but it was fun helping out in the battle" Rivalz said also doing some paperwork.
"Hey guys; where are the hero and his princess?" Suzaku asked
"Don't know" C.C. said munching on her pizza
"I thought we broke you of that bad only eating pizza habit" Milly said "You're joking; my sister eating something else besides Pizza?" Prima said wearing an Ashford Academy girl's uniform with a pair of knee length pants
"anyway back to those two" Nina said being held by her boyfriend Spike Weaving from NEST.
On the rooftops Lelouch and Kallen were watching the clouds float past
"So who do you think will be emperor?" Kallen asked
"I don't know the council and Cornelia have been keeping it tight lipped until coronation" Lelouch said
"So do you think Nunnally will keep being Empress or someone else will be emperor or Empress?" Kallen asked
"People loved Nunnally as Temporary Empress until she stepped down last week" Lelouch said
"I bet she's just glad to be back at Ashford, what with a governor as acting viceroy" Kallen said
"Yeah, she's glad to be back and I'm thankful your mother gave her, her legs back. I heard she's planning to take up soccer" Lelouch laughed
"Ah but remember Prima's healing powers helped" Kallen said.
Rivalz was cloud gazing
"Staring at the clouds again Rivalz?" Lelouch asked
"I've been wondering, what will happen when I go to college or university and Milly doesn't get in or goes to a different one?" he asked
"why worry about that now Rivalz, surely you will time to discuss these things with Milly" Lelouch said
"Thanks man I know I can always count on you" he said.
"Lulu!" Milly shouted
"Yeah?" Lelouch asked
"Cornelia's here she wants to see you" she said.
"Okay" Lelouch answered
"Why is she here?" Rivalz asked
"Knowing Cornelia its best not to ask" Lelouch said
"Ah Lelouch there you are" Cornelia said sipping a cup of tea in the meeting room of the Student Council chambers
"What do you want my dear sister?" Lelouch asked
"Quick to the point as per usual huh Lelouch" she said
"Very well the council and ourselves being your sisters and brother have chosen the next ruler" Lelouch said
"And you came here to inform me of this choice" Lelouch said
"Not quite I came here to inform you of the fact that you are now Emperor Lelouch" Cornelia said
"You...you want to run that by me again" Lelouch said unsure of what he heard,
"Of course I will Emperor Lelouch Vi Britannia" Cornelia said
"Me! You guys choose me out of all you guys" Lelouch said "The Council would have preferred me or Nunnally; but we changed their minds" Cornelia said
"Next question why me? The young Emperor asked "because you not only saved the world but you showed leadership while doing it" Cornelia explained
"When?" Lelouch asked
"A week after graduation however the day after it you must be in Pendragon" Cornelia said
"Of course standard protocol how could I forget, must I leave without saying goodbye to my friends" Lelouch shouted
"I understand I know you don't want to leave but" Cornelia said
"I must" Lelouch said
"Sorry" Cornelia said leaving.
A week past quickly and now it was graduation day and everyone was preparing their graduation robes. Lelouch was having trouble with his robe
"Now how does this do up?" he asked as various NEST soldiers snickered and laughed at their leader
"Men stop that at once" Euphemia said joining her were Brigadiers Prima and C.C.
"Thank you Euphie" Lelouch said lacing his cap on "Well?" he asked
"You look mature" C.C. said
"Way to go sis" Prima said
"Well he does look mature" C.C said
"All I know is that he is graduating, if only Lady Marianne was here to see this day" Euphie said
"I know" Lelouch said hugging his sister
"I'll see you tonight" she whispered.
Lelouch walked past the hangar area to see Optimus standing there
"Lelouch, we may not have been here for all of your life, but what I have seen you have grown into a fine gentleman and you will keep growing and expanding you abilities, but most importantly remember one thing" Optimus said
"Freedom is the right of all sentient beings" Lelouch said
"And now I congratulate you on your graduation, and I have assigned an escort for you" Optimus stated
"Thank you" Lelouch smiled
"Sideswipe" Optimus ordered
"Yes sir!" Sideswipe said.
"He will also be with you afterwards" Optimus said knowingly about what was going to happen to Lelouch soon.
"Thanks, well I don't want to be late" Lelocuh said.
Everyone had gathered for the graduation ceremony, members of NEST, parents, teachers and most importantly students showed up. The Dean Reuben Ashford opened the ceremony followed by the music club having a mini concert which covered the arrival of a late student who took his place with his student council peers.
"It's about time" Milly scolded him
"sorry I got caught up with Optimus" Lelouch said
"And now I present the vice President of the Ashford Academy Student council Lelouch Lamperouge to say a few words" Reuben said as the speaker was called up.
"What words could describe Ashford Academy; I ask myself that same question day after day. Is it the teachers guiding us, our friends learning next to us, could it be an atmosphere of calmness, the Student council's president and her outlandish festivals, Who knows; all I know is that coming here was an experience that will never be forgotten and I think I say that not only on my behalf but that of the graduating students here, who were once my friends and always be my friends" Lelouch said delivering his speech making the students tear up. "Also I would to thank the teachers, the dean and everyone who made Ashford Academy the place I called a home and a school" Lelouch finished earning a standing ovation.
"Thank you Lelouch, now onto the certificate ceremony" Reuben said smiling.
"Please join me as I say congratulations to our seniors" Reuben said as everyone clapped with tears in their eyes and smiles on their faces. The graduates threw their caps in the air. Soon afterwards everyone met up with family all except Lelouch who sat on the steps holding his cap in his hands twirling it around.
"Hey Lulu come on" Milly said grabbing the boy and bringing him to a group of friends,
"the council's last picture" Ohgi said smiling
"Okay graduates at the back" Prima said, the back row was Nina, Shirley Suzaku, Lelouch, Milly, Gino and Rivalz while the front row was Nunnally Anya and Rolo.
"Smile" the photographer said
"Graduation" The students said. After the picture was taken
"So we'll meet in the ballroom for the senior's farewell party!" Milly said.
After the Graudation ceremony Lelouch began to pack
"Hey" Kallen said entering
"Hey" he said kissing her
"So tonight's going to be something huh?" Kallen asked adjusting her knee length red boots
"Yeah it is" Lelouch said "Say Kallen, I want to ask you something"
"What is it?" Kallen asked. Lelouch knelt down
"Kallen Bara Kozuki will you marry me?" he asked
"Lelouch" she gasped "Yes, yes I will marry you" Kallen said jumping into his arms
"I love you" they said to each other,
"I will see you later my brave knight" Kallen said walking out,
"Not for a while, my beautiful rose" Lelouch said leaving a red rose next to a picture of them that was taken after the Cupid's day event.
That night outside the front gates of the academy Sideswipe waited for the new emperor.
"Let's roll" Lelouch said getting after placing his luggage in the trunk
"Not saying goodbye?" Sideswipe asked
"No I'm not going to for it would be too painful" he said as the Autobot drove off. An hour later Lelouch boarded the imperial plane that would take him to Britannia "am I making the right decision?" he asked the plane's other passengers the new Knight of One Gino Weinberg and Euphie
"Yes you did, after all you helped everyone when you defeated the Fallen and sent Megatron packing" Gino said
"I know it's just that did I do the right leaving without saying goodbye?" Lelouch asked
"Only you know that" Euphie said falling into a light sleep.
"Right idea, you should sleep too your highness" Gino said. They landed in Pendragon airspace the next morning
"I'm home after eight years I'm back in the country of my birth." Lelouch said.
Over the next week Lelouch was kept inside Pendragon palace with only Jeremiah Gino and his sisters for company. However the day of the coronation Lelouch snapped
"I'm not going out there" he exclaimed to Euphie who sighed
"Why not?" she asked
"Why not, why not because I look like an idiot no an emperor, seriously who designed this!" Lelouch said stepping out in his emperor's attire. It was a white suit with gold and red embroidery and navy accents;
"It looks fine" Euphie said helping him with his cape
"Easy for you to say" he grumbled
"Lelouch you can complain about looking good when you wear high heels all day" Euphie barked
"Well, I must admit the embroidery is nice, just not the colour, black maybe instead of white" Lelouch said as Euphie placed his hat on
"There we are, come on" Euphie said.
"Today we crown our new emperor and may he lead us into a new age of peace and harmony" Lelouch heard Cornelia say at the end of her speech
"Nice speech?" Lelouch asked
"Kind of, you can watch it later" Jeremiah said.
"I now present his majesty the 99th Emperor of Britannia Lelouch Vi Britannia!" Cornelia said as he joined Euphie's side as Lelouch held the imperial sword
"I Lelouch Vi Britannia, hereby announce I will rule this empire justly, honestly and above all else peacefully" Lelouch said the emperor's vows holding his sword before flourishing it
"Long Live Lelouch" came the cried from the crowd below him "Long live Lelouch, Long Live Lelouch!" the chant went.
In Japan the graduated Student council were in shock
"Lelouch is Emperor?" Shirley said "
That would make sense because the Emperor's identity must be hidden to the world until coronation" Suzaku said.
'That means I'm going to be Empress!' Kallen thought in shock.
"Okay so now what's he going to do?" Rivalz asked.
"He should've told us" Milly said
"Who cares he's emperor now and there is nothing we can do" Kallen said
"Three...two...one" Milly counted before poited to Kallen
"Until I get my hands on him and make him rule the day he scorned me!" Kallen said.
"Okay your highness, what is your first act as emperor?" Euphie asked
"Abolish the Area-Number system and introduce the Britannian Colony system, in other words give people their freedom and honour back, next have each colony select someone to act as a viceroy or Prime Minister except Japan, I have already worked that one out, after that hm...I'm not sure" Lelouch said
"Okay, but you do realise the royal council wants you to select a suitor" Euphie said
"I've already got an empress" Lelouch said
"Since when?" Euphie asked
"Graduation" Lelocuh said
"Oh, that's right I need someone to bring her over here. After that I think I'll create a new team of Knights of the rounds, which will include non-britannian elite pilots" Lelouch said
"Of course" Euphie said.
At NEST base Alpha Bumblebee, Ironhide, the Twins and Jazz received a communications from Euphie
"greetings Brigadier Britannia, or is that General Britannia now?" Jazz asked
"Hello, I need you to bring Kallen over here ASAP" Euphie said
"Any reason?" Ironhide asked
"Yes, you see I've sent you a data packet explaining the mission" Euphie said
"Understood, we'll be there soon" Jazz said
"Alright a mission" Skids said
"The only reason you two are being brought along is so I can keep an eye on you" Ironhide said
"Yes sir," Mudflap said
"Could Col. Kozuki please report to the hangar bay" Jazz said.
Ten minutes afterwards Kallen was lightly running across the hangar zipping up her Black Knight uniform.
"We've got a mission" Ironhide said transforming so Kallen could get in,
"How long until we get there?" Kallen asked
"We'll be travelling in Stratosphere" Ironhide driving out to the tarmac
"What are the objectives?" Kallen asked
"Escort a VIP" Jazz said
"Okay" Kallen said.
In the air ten hours later
"Kallen why don't you sleep in my cab, its 2:02 in the morning" Ironhide said as the redhead yawned
"Thanks just tint the windows so no light gets in" Kallen said curling up under her jacket
"Of course" Ironhide complying with her
"Ah Ironhide it's 3:09 in the morning" Bumblebee said
"Britannia's ahead of Japan" Ironhide said
"Okay" Bumblebee said falling into recharge.
"The twins are in front of me and recharging, get some shut eye Ironhide otherwise Prime and Ratchet will have my chassis" Jazz said
"Thanks, tell me when were about to touch down" Ironhide requested
"Acknowledged." Jazz said.
"Okay we're about to touch down, Ironhide how's the VIP?" Jazz asked
"Sleeping solidly" Ironhide said
"Good now remember the Knight of One will provide aerial escort and then head to the hangar bay where someone will take Kallen to the royal bedchamber" Jazz said
"Lelouch is up so he won't be disturbed" Bumblebee said
"Alright Autobots Rollout!" Jazz ordered as the five Autobots disembarked from the Stratosphere and out onto the streets of Pendragon.
"ETA ten minutes' Skids said
"Escort spotted" Mudflap said.
"A nice and warm sunny day, 28 degrees Celsius" Bumblebee recorded Temperature.
The team arrived four minutes earlier due to light traffic and saw the maid Sayako standing there
"In the back" Ironhide said opening the cab so Sayako could gently get teh girl out
"Thank you, his highness most appreciates this" Sayako said walking off
"Autobots stand down" Jazz ordered. "Mission accomplished"
In his study Lelouch made contact with Optimus
"I understand the team you sent is here with the VIP" LElouch said biting into his marmalade covered toast
"Yes they did" Optimus said as a knock sounded
"Enter!" the Emperor shouted
"she's here" Jeremiah said standing at attention
"Excellent I must go now Optimus we will continue this conversation later my friend" "I look forward to it Emperor Lelouch" teh pair farewelled.
Lelouch walked into his chambers to see his fiancé covered in the soft red material that made up the blankets wearing only a tank top or bra he couldn't tell because all he was seeing were the straps and probably her underwear and socks
"Sayako changed her into something a bit more regal" Jeremiah whispered
"Huh?" Lelouch asked
"She's wearing a red nightgown Lelouch" Jeremiah said leaving as Lelouch sat down on the bed and stroking her red hair.
"Goodnight my sweet rose" he whispered kissing her.
A while later Kallen woke up in an unfamiliar place
"Where am I?" she asked before seeing what she was wearing "What the heck am I wearing?" she asked
"That would be a nightgown and you are in the royal bedchambers" a voice said
"Lelouch?" Kallen asked surprised falling out of bed
"Are you okay?" The new Emperor asked his Empress
"Why am I, I'm the VIP Ironhide was escorting wasn't I?" Kallen asked
"Pretty much, look I'm sorry for not saying goodbye but protocol states I have to be hidden until the coronation and if I said goodbye that meant" Lelouch said before Kallen put a finger to his lips
"I understand, and now that I'm here we can have some us time, until your duties require you" Kallen said
"Sure" Lelouch agreed.
A month later Kallen was now Empress and helped Lelouch with the running of the Empire, Cornelia became the Britannian Prime Minister and every country that was dubbed an area was return to their original title, As for the others, they live happily into the end of their days.
SO like I said in my last note at chapter 13 TFG R2 is a mix of Revenegr of the fallen and Code Geass R2 which is why I used a good deal of scene and actual dialogue from the film in this set, I have to say it was really fun planning out how things would work with this series since again, no one had done anything like this before, in fact I think there may have been one or two other Code Geass Transformers fic
Now for the last part of this trilogy is Transformers Geass R3 Legends of new hero which switches from Lelouch to Nunnally as the main characterand is divided up into three story arc based around G1, Beast Wars and War for Cybertron since TF Prime wasn't around yet. Plus it will feature a timeskip
So until next time I'll catch you on the flipside
