V.V. stared into Nunnally's ringed eyes and took step back as a chill went through his spine which was unusual. After all he was immortal, the only thing that could kill him would be a person with a fully evolved Geass that could take away the Code that made him immortal. He remembered Charles mentioning seeing something similar to those eyes back in C's World and every time it happened the Sword was damaged more and more. It was at this point that if something was not done it would take years to repair the Sword.
V.V. heard a sound turned around, seeing a woman dressed as maid close the doors and she had the same eyes as Nunnally. "Who are you?"
"I am Sayoko Sonozaki of the Sonozaki clan and servant to Lady Nunnally." The woman answered stoically.
V.V. would have said something if not for the fact that just as Sayoko finished speaking a fist slammed into his face and knocked him down onto the floor. V.V. cried out in pain as the blow nearly disconnected his jaw and looked up to see Nunnally standing over him.
"I remember what happened that night, Uncle. I know it was you who killed my mother and it was my father who blinded and crippled me." Nunnally cracked her knuckles. "Even before I remember I shared the same hate my brother had for our bastard father for abandoning us and leaving us here in the middle of a warzone but then when I remembered…" Nunnally looked down at V.V. with a scary glare that was only enhanced by the ringed eyes that seemed to glow with a purplish light. "I was more than angry… I… Was….Pissed!"
What happened next could only be described as the fury of a woman scorned as Nunnally, the little sister who was thought to be weak and defenceless let loose seven years of anger from all the pain she had gone through on her immortal uncle, using the lessons she had learned from Naruto, C.C. and Sayoko to beat the little bastard within an inch of his immortal life and more. He was immortal now so Nunnally didn't have to pull her punches, which she enhanced with chakra and made them even more powerful against V.V.'s childlike body that broke instant under her blows but regenerated instantly because of his Code.
In this case immortality was the worst thing imaginable for V.V. as Nunnally continued to let out all her hate, anger, and rage against monster that had made her life Hell all because of his childish jealousy towards her mother.
Sayoko had made sure to put a barrier that blocked the sounds of V.V. screaming. It wouldn't be good for any Black Knights to come in and see a little Britannian girl beating the snot out of a younger boy. Plus this was her lady's vengeance and thus Sayoko would ensure that Lady Nunnally would have her ten pound of flesh. It took over ten minutes before Nunnally finally let up but those ten minutes felt like an eternity to V.V. who screamed, cried and blacked out through those ten minutes, perhaps even dying but Nunnally made sure he was wide awake through it all and the Code kept him from truly dying.
"This is for my mother!" Nunnally slammed V.V.'s head into the floor.
"This is for my brother!" Nunnally grabbed V.V. by the collar and punched him so hard his head was nearly launched right off his neck and into the wall.
"This is for my legs!" Nunnally enhanced her foot with chakra as she kicked him in the chest, breaking all of his ribs in one hit.
"And this is for my eyes!" Nunnally brought both hands together and slammed them right into V.V.'s eyes seemingly splattering them and most of V.V.'s head as he hit the ground.
The Code regenerated them but the pain lingered enough for V.V. to go into shock from the sheer intensity of it.
"Don't think this is over, uncle. You still have yet to pay me back for the seven years of the pain of being a weakling that you and my bastard father did to me and my brother. Seven years of me being blind and immobile, a constant burden to my brother as he went through Hell to keep me safe and happy. Only after understanding all of my pain will you have paid back your debt." Nunnally pulled V.V. up by the collar until his face was mere inches from hers as something large appeared behind her. "Then you have my permission to die."
And once she was done with her uncle Nunnally would see to it that her father would understand how she felt after what he had done to her.
He would pay back his debt to her and Lelouch and it would be paid in blood.
'Damn, Nunnally. You really did take our training like a sponge.' Naruto thought, now a little scared of Nunnally for the beating he put V.V. through.
If not for being a selfish little bastard Naruto would felt sorry for him.
C.C. on the other hand grinned. "It's about time someone gave that little shit the beating Charles should have given him years ago."
Cornelia grunted as she climbed out of her destroyed Gloucester, her left arm possibly broken from the fall while her uniform was bloody and tattered. She watched as the Arashikage stood before and the cockpit opened up.
Her eyes spotted Zero with his mask under his arm, allowing her to see his face. "I see… So you were Zero the entire time."
Lelouch stepped onto the ground and stood before her with his left hand over his left eye.
"Darlton was right. He said it was someone with a grudge against the Britannian Imperial family. Zero's knight, the pilot known as Seizan said you knew what happened to my brother and sister here during the war and he was right." Cornelia muttered, staring at his face. "The answer was staring at me in the face the whole time and I didn't make the connection. You… You did this for Nunnally?"
"Correct." Her long lost brother, Lelouch vi Britannia answered. "I will demolish the present world and build a new and better one in its place."
"You did all this for the sake of that madness? You killed Clovis. Does Euphie know about this?" Cornelia said tearfully.
"Clovis died by his own actions and Euphie knew of my identity from our time on the island. It was directly connected to her reason for the Special Zone. The zone that went against Britannia's agenda and thus they betrayed her like they did me. Along with my mother who you idolized." Lelouch replied calmly.
Cornelia grunted as she sat up straight. "It would seem talking to you any further would be utterly pointless."
"Indeed then. Well there is only one last thing." Lelouch said, already knowing the truth about his mother's death. "You can look forward to seeing Euphie again as a prisoner of the Black Knights."
Lelouch would have said more when there was blast on the far end of the building.
"ALL HAIL BRITANNIA!"
"What the hell?!" Naruto grunted as a massive machine rose up into the sky. "A Knightmare that big that can fly?"
It looked like a fortress, a massive machine that was roughly shaped like an egg with slash harkens shaped like spikes. The pilot was at the very top of the machine, wearing pieces of metal over his body with large wired attached to his back.
'And it's orange too.' Naruto noted thoughtfully.
"Mister Zero? Can it really be? What? Oh what luck! What fate!" The pilot said, his voice very familiar. "What evil fortune!"
"Is that you, Orange Boy?" Lelouch asked, putting his mask back as he ran back into the Arashikage's cockpit.
Jeremiah Gottwald let out a loud yell, then surprisingly calmed down as he put his hands together as if to prey. "I beseech you! I beg of you. Please die."
"Orange Knightmare and Orange boy." Naruto commented thoughtfully. "I am seeing a bit of a trend here."
"Can you please focus?" C.C. asked, not sounding at all annoyed or irritated.
"I'm just saying-"
The massive machine slammed into the Arashikage as Lelouch tried to grab Cornelia who finally feinted because of her injuries, both of them flying off the roof.
"Zero I," Jeremiah said as he elevated down into the cockpit. "I must rid the world of the Empire's enemies! And so… ALL HAIL BRITANNIA!"
"Damn it." Naruto quickly created a Shadow Clone who rushed over to Cornelia, picking her up and jumped off the building, taking her somewhere safe. "The guy's become a total loony! Who goes crazy over the color orange?"
' Is that a trick question? ' Kurama could not help but laugh.
General Bartley looked down on the ground with a clenched fist. "It's a damn disgrace. If we report to the Prince what happened here…"
"It's only his emotions running wild. His behavior is too hard to predict right now."
"I wish we could communicate with him. Get through to him somehow!" Bartley grunted.
"Get out of the way!"Lelouch fired the Elemental cannons, setting them to Bolt mode but the giant Knightmare Jeremiah was piloting dodged and fired a slash harken that would have pierced the Arashikage if the Seizan hadn't flown in and pushed the Arashikage out of the way.
"ZERO!"
C.C. fired her own harkens from her fans but the giant Knightmare moved with such speed and used flight patterns so random that even Naruto and C.C. were having trouble figuring out where he was going to be. Then it began spinning at an impossible speed, creating some sort of spinning shield.
'They invented Kaiten!' Naruto thought as the Knightmare fired its harkens at them. 'Oh if the Hyuga clan saw this they would be pissed!'
They managed to dodge but it was a close call as the giant Knightmare fortress called back its weapons so fast and quickly attacked again.
"This Knightmare, only the Geass Order could have created something so advanced." C.C. mumbled as she dodged another harken.
"We need to take this fight away from anyone else and take it out. This is one opponent we can't hold back against." Naruto said, looking at the Arashikage.
"Understood. I'll be the decoy." Lelouch nodded, projecting a map of the city. "Just be ready to take it out when you're ready."
"ZERO!" Jeremiah shouted as the Arashikage turned and shot away. "DO YOU THINK YOU CAN RUN AWAY FROM ME?!"
Naruto and C.C. glanced at each other through their Knightmares and each made a hand sign before sinking into the ground. Lelouch sped down the street with Jeremiah hot on his trail, the latter screaming through the speakers as he got closer and closer.
"Have you lost all your arrogant bravado, Zero? Do you fear me, Jeremiah Gottwald?!" Jeremiah shouted.
Lelouch spun around and fired his Element Cannons, this time they were set to Ice Mode and soon enough the entire street and even Jeremiah's Knightmare were covered in ice. However the Knightmare fortress began spinning and instantly the ice broke off.
"Is that it, Zero?! Is that all you have against me?!" Jeremiah shouted, his voice becoming more maniacal.
Lelouch grunted but smirked. "Come and see for yourself."
"ZERO!" Jeremiah shouted and lunged forward.
Jeremiah was just on top of him when he spotted a pair of arms reach up and grab the Arashikage's legs, pulling all the down into the ground. At the same time the buildings around the Knightmare fortress began shake and collapse right on top of it.
"YOU COWARD! YOU ATTACK FROM BEHIND!?"
"Be crushed to death you relic." Lelouch stated, watching as the buildings fell.
"ZEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Jeremiah screamed as he and his Knightmare were buried under the frozen rubble.
He tried to escape but the weight of all the rubble falling on him was too much even for his large Knightmare fortress and soon enough was left buried in the former street, now a field of rubble. The three Knightmares of the leaders of the Black Knights emerged from the Earth, staring down at the rubble pile before them. Even if he could escape eventually Naruto and C.C. had come prepared for that. While Naruto grabbed the Arashikage C.C. had touched the Knightmare fortress as it was buried and attached Shinyroku to the machine with the power of the Asura Path.
C.C. then called upon the power of the Preta Path to drain the machine of its energy, connecting herself to her Knightmare and thus was able to drain the Knightmare's power until it was completely drained and its energy channeled into Shinyroku as extra power.
Not that it needed extra power.
Thus a possibly dangerous threat was eliminated before it could cause any real problems. Lelouch's strategy was sound but against a Knightmare that advanced it would have taken more than dumping an entire building on it to keep it down. Still it would make a good research project for Rakshata once they fished it out of the rubble. She wouldn't dare pass up a chance to study a machine this advanced and see what she could do with it.
"That was easier than I thought." Naruto remarked, having been ready to go all out against the massive Knightmare.
"He might still do that. Let's just be grateful Jeremiah's obsessiveness towards me distracted him and made him vulnerable." Lelouch replied. "With Jeremiah and Cornelia down we can now win this battle. The enemy will be in complete disarray without their leaders to keep them assembled."
"There is still the matter of the Guilford and Nonnette. They are high ranked officers and both could still rally a counter-attack." C.C. noted. "The battle's not completely over."
Lelouch nodded. "You're right, of course. Still with the government bureau under out control we have won the first battle."
"Why did you try to stop him?"
Lloyd sat against the wall, allowing Cecile the privacy she needed as she slipped out of her uniform and into a modified pilot suit. "I'm a military contractor."
"You didn't want him killed did you?" Cecile asked as she slipped the custom black and yellow pilot suit on.
"Why should I care?" Cecile looked over her shoulder as Lloyd answered. "You know as well as I do the biggest humans parts are a bit fragile in our bodies, our hearts, and our relationships with each other."
Cecile stepped out of the room as she put a head set into her ear. "Nevertheless you can't bend the world or people in any which you want."
Lloyd looked down. "I want every part of my mechanisms to function exactly as I wish. If we lose Kururugi we'll just have to find another devicer."
Rakshata frowned as the large torch cutter was activated. "Be careful please. Any Knightmare entering the field will be immediately shut down."
"Understood." The Knightmare slowly out the cutter to the Lancelot, ready to cut the pilot out.
Inside Suzaku gritted his teeth, looking for a way to escape but couldn't do anything with the Lancelot powered down. However it seemed for the moment luck was on his side as the torch cutter failed to burn through the hatch.
"Damn that's a thick hatch." Tamaki commented from the ground, acting as part of the ground unit guarding the Lancelot. "I wish we had the sword with the rotating blade or Kallen's lightning sword."
"Tamaki." The red head turned to the right, seeing three Britannian students brought to him at gunpoint. "Should we lock them up with the other students?"
"Call Zero!" Shirley said suddenly. "I guarantee that Zero wants us to be safe. If not, something's wrong. He's trying to guard us!"
"Ah shut up!" Tamaki grunted. "Zero and me are tight and I know the man better than anybody. And he's not going to hesitate to shoot anyone at a time like this!"
"Tamaki!" Rakshata shouted, earning everyone's attention. "You will not shoot anyone this close to the field. Take them to other students."
"Huh?" Tamaki looked surprised by Rakshata's orders.
"Do not think you believe you know what Zero would do if he was here. His orders were that no students, teachers, or workers be killed unless there was no choice. And considering these three are unharmed I say that the need to shoot them is unnecessary." Rakshata stated sternly. "Now either do as you are told or would you like to take your chance that Zero won't be mad at you for wasting bullets."
Before Tamaki could answer a light shined down from above and annoying voice echoed across the school grounds. " Good evening everyone! "
Rakshata looked up, her Rinnegan eyes activating on instinct at the voice. "Earl of Pudding. You actually came onto the front lines to get your precious toy." She smirked. "I am almost impressed."
On the bridge of the airship Lloyd narrowed his eyes when he spotted Rakshata smirking, presumable at him. 'Rakshata, I knew you would have something do with this. You've been a busy girl these last months but you're not getting my Lancelot.'
A Knightmare equipped with a flying unit along with the Lancelot Club flew down from the massive ship, firing down on the enemy guarding the Lancelot.
"Retreat! Retreat!" Tamaki shouted as they all scattered.
"Come on!" Milly shouted as she along with Rivalz and Shirley ran back into the bushes.
Tamaki turned around, spotting the students fleeing but was stopped as the new Knightmare landed in front of him. In surprise he shot at it but the Knightmare was armed with the same kind of shields, the Blaze Luminous as the Lancelot.
" Well Miss Cecile how are the test parts working? "
"They're ready to practically be applied." Cecile answered calmly as the air ship fired down on the new surrounding the Lancelot, causing its systems to reactivate.
"It's back on!" Suzaku said in relief.
Cecile appeared on the main screen. " Unlock your fuel hatch. We'll replace your energy filter. "
"Right. Why did you out here too, Miss Cecile?" Suzaku asked as the hatch opened.
" Good question. Why did we Lloyd? " Cecile asked.
" Why else? To recover the Lancelot. "
" We'll handle things here. You and Rai go after Zero. " Cecile stated once the Lancelot was fully powered.
Suzaku nodded. "Yes, I will. Please protect everyone here at Ashford Academy."
" Why of course. " Lloyd replied in a seemingly happy tone. " After all my fiancé lives here. "
Suzaku and Rai lifted off the ground and took off into the air, flying back into the battle for Japan.
Naruto's eyes shot open. "Oh crap."
Lelouch heard Naruto's irritated voice on the radio. "Naruto, what is it?"
"Suzaku escaped the trap and is on his way here with Rai. An airship, likely the same one that attack us on the island is hovering over Ashford" C.C. answered calmly.
"What?!" Lelouch gritted his teeth. "We still have take down Guilford and Nonnette who are leading the counter attack and those two are right behind us? They even have Ashford now."
"Looks like it." Naruto looked in the direction the two were coming from. "Talk about arriving at the last moment. I thought I did those things."
"We got to move!" Lelouch said urgently, worried about his sister.
"Calm down, Lelouch. The academy won't be harmed so as long as no one shoots. We have problems of our own." C.C. retorted as the Lancelot and the Club came into view. "Let's take those two out before they become an even bigger problem."
Lelouch grudgingly nodded. "Very well. Take them out of the battle by whatever means necessary. Just don't-"
"Kill them." Naruto finished. "You go with the others and take that building."
"ZERO!" Suzaku shouted as Lelouch took off to take control of the battle for the government bureau. "You can't escape!"
"Time to go all out on these guys." Naruto said, a grin appearing on his face that C.C. matched with her own.
As one Seizan and Shinryoku activated their energy wings and shot up, moving at high speed and meeting the Lancelot and the Club in the air.
"Seizan." Suzaku gritted his teeth, glaring at the two Knightmares that had been the largest causes for all the chaos that had been happening since day one.
"Suzaku, you sure are one hell of a stubborn guy and from me that's saying something." Naruto commented, his Knightmare holding its nodachi and kunai in its hands, ready for battle. "Seriously, you just keep coming back every time."
"You will not get away with this. Today is the day I make you and Zero pay for all the destruction you have caused!" Suzaku snapped, unsheathing his MVS swords. "Here is where I finally defeat you!"
"Someone has a bruised ego." Naruto commented, scowling. "It's over, Suzaku. Cornelia has been captured, the defenses around the bureau are falling and you don't have any reinforcements to come help you. The Japanese are taking back their country that was stolen from them by Britannia when they invaded without provocation or reason seven years ago."
"I will not allow it! This is not the way! A country built on the blood of innocence is not a country at all!" Suzaki shouted.
"And what do you call Area Eleven or the other Areas? You saying they weren't built on someone's blood?" Naruto growled. "Don't preach that crap to me, Suzaku! I know you don't believe it! This isn't about Japan or Zero it's about you and your father!"
Suzaku's eyes widened in shock.
"You killed your father and you've been guilty about it ever since! You believe the only way to repent is act like a good boy while secretly hoping you'll die in battle and somehow find redemption! Only you've been looking for your so-called redemption at the blood and expense of your own people because in your eyes resisting Britannia is what your father wanted and he died because you didn't believe it that way. You've built your believes around the idea that if everyone follows the rules they get rewarded and any other way is unacceptable." Naruto said, pointing a finger at the Lancelot. "You've destroyed the lives and dreams of others for your own goals to keep your morals clean and believing if you obey you will be rewarded… You are a traitor, Suzaku. And those who betray their friends, families, and people are lower than trash."
Suzaku gritted his teeth to the point they might actually start to break as he seemingly lost control. "SHUT UP! You think you have the right to lecture me?! You who would rather make war than peace?! You and Zero who use everyone around you for your own selfish lust for power!?"
"Then I guess you can call me a God of War because this what happens when people don't like the views of people like Britannia who treat them as slave and you who would see them in chains to satisfy your own conscious. And for the record I don't need power, especially against someone like you. So you can take that selfish bullshit and shove it up your hypocritical ass." Naruto retorted. "You ran away and abandoned your people and into the arms of the very people who invaded this country on the day you killed your father, abandoning your friends in the process and for what? Just to bow your head and hope and pray for some sort of change if you make yourself a useful scapegoat. You are pathetic Suzaku Kururugi and I for one have no idea what Princess Euphemia, an honorable woman ever saw in you."
"SHUT UP!" Suzaku shouted as the Lancelot shot at Seizan. "DON'T EVER SPEAK OF PRINCESS EUPHEMIA! YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO SPEAK OF HER!"
Naruto however dodged each and every slash, every kick, every punch, and every form of attack that Suzaku sent his way. "And you do?"
Suzaku had completely lost all form of emotional control, his attacks becoming sloppy, easy to counter, and easy to dodge.
"Suzaku…" Rai whispered in shock, seeing the White Knight attack like a raging berserker.
Naruto spun Siezan through the air as he evaded every one of Suzaku's attacks, easily seeing through them since Suzaku had abandoned any form of coordinated planning. The energy wings made Seizan faster than the Lancelot and Naruto had been fighting ever since he was young.
"STAND STILL AND FIGHT YOU COWARD! YOU, ZERO, YOUR LIVES ARE A BLIGHT ON THE WORLD!" Suzaku roared, slashing wildly.
"A lot of people could say the same for you and Britannia!" Naruto retorted, finally blocking with his nodachi and fired his kunai.
The kunai flew past the Lancelot's head but Naruto whipped the cable line, causing it wrap around the Lancelot's shoulder and Naruto flew down, pulling the Lancelot with him.
"Suzaku!" Rai shouted, angling the Club fly after them but C.C. flew up in front of him.
"Sorry, Rai." C.C. whispered, blocking the Club and ready to fight. "This is not a fight you can win."
Rai grunted and aimed his VARIS rifle at her but C.C. was ready.
" Wind Style: Wind Blades. " C.C. swung Shinryoku's arms wide open, releasing concentrated wind in the form of blades that cut through the rifle and move of the Club, cutting the arms and legs off.
The Club would have fallen to the ground below and the height would have killed Rai in impact but C.C. grabbed the Club by the back, keeping it in the air.
"Lucky for you I actually am a bit of a softie on the inside." C.C. mumbled. "Thanks to a certain blond in my life."
"SEIZAN!" Suzaku screamed as he tried to break free but Naruto kept pulling him down. "YOU WON'T GET AWAY WITH THIS! YOU AND ZERO WILL BE STOPPED!"
"Not by you, Suzaku." Naruto replied and somersaulted Seizan up, delivering a kick to the torso, releasing the Lancelot and sending it shooting down to the street below.
The whole time Suzaku screamed out before hitting the ground hard enough to kick up dust and crack the road open. Naruto landed on the ground and watched as the dust cleared, looking at a badly damaged Lancelot and could tell Suzaku was alive but he was injured.
"You cannot change a system that does not care for the people who serve it." Naruto remarked, looking up and watching as the defenses around the government bureau finally fell.
The battle would soon be over after that.
Rakshata laughed as she watched Naruto and C.C. defeat the Lancelot and the Club from inside the academy. "All too easy, Earl of Pudding!"
Meanwhile in the airship Lloyd growled as the readings on the Lancelot and the Club all read as critical. "What's happening?! Has something happened to my Club and Lancelot?!"
" Lloyd, what is going on? " Cecile asked over the radio.
"The Lancelot and Club have suffered extensive damage! What have those two done?!" Lloyd banged the console.
" Having a rough day, Earl of Pudding? "
Lloyd's eyes shot up as Rakshata's voice came from the radio. "Rakshata…"
" Sounds like your second rate toys were dismantled. If you need confirmation I can gladly upload you an image. " Rakshata laughed.
"Second-rate?! SECOND RATE?!" Lloyd screamed out, his face becoming manic and just plain scary to the bridge crew. "MY LANCELOT IS NOT SECOND RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE!"
Needless to say Lloyd had effectively deafened the entire school with his loud scream since he had left the radio on.
Milly actually sweat-dropped from where she was hiding. "Seriously, this is the guy my parents are trying to hook me up with?"
"I see." Kaguya said before hanging up and looked at Euphemia. "Suzaku Kururugi and Rai were just defeated moments ago by Zero's knights."
"I see…" Euphemia trailed.
Kaguya smiled. "Don't worry, they are still alive. Zero wouldn't order them killed but they will have to be captured."
Euphemia offered a saddened smile as she nodded. "Of course."
"Damn it!" Tamaki swore as he and the others traded fire with Cecile who showed surprising skill in her Knightmare but having Blaze Luminous and a flight unit helped greatly. "Can't we at least hold this place?"
" It will only be until all the students have boarded the ship. Hang in there. " Lloyd advised.
"Yes I will." Cecile complied, keeping the Black Knights back long enough to evacuate the school. Her scanners picked up something and spotted an opening in the ground. "Why am I reading a thermal reaction in there?"
An elevator came up with a Knightmare, the Ganymede with something attached to the chest.
"The Ganymede? What in the world is that antique doing active?" Rakshata wondered.
Milly, Shirley and Rivalz watched as the Knightmare came up with Milly recognizing it instantly. "Can it be… NINA!"
She wasn't the only to realize something was wrong as Lloyd spotted the device and actually became concerned. "Oh hell! Cease fire! That goes for you too, Black Knights!"
Rakshata activated her Rinnegan and saw a large amount of energy in the device. "What is this?"
"Call a temporary truce! We can't fire on that!" Lloyd exclaimed.
"Listen everyone! Do as he says! Hold your fire!" Rakshata quickly ordered. 'If it's got Lloyd that panicked then…'
Lloyd sighed in relief and looked at the Knightmare. "Nina, did you complete it?"
In the cockpit Nina looked absolutely determined. "There wasn't enough time to test. I don't know if it will explode. Though I'll try to…"
Milly rushed forward. "Nina, what did you mean by explode?"
"Stay back!" Cecile landed in front of the Ashford Heiress.
"If her theory is correct that thing may destroy the entire Tokyo Settlement." Lloyd explained.
"But that isn't possible." Tamaki denied.
"Believe it! She's been using Sakuradite!" Cecile replied, causing even Tamaki to stop and realize how serious it was.
"Where is Zero holding her? Where is he hiding her? Tell me so I can save Princess Euphemia!" Nina shouted, her hands around the trigger shaking.
Luckily for everyone Nina suddenly lost consciousness and collapsed, dropping the trigger.
"Quickly, someone deactivate that device!" Lloyd shouted.
"I'm on it." Cecile came up to the Ganymede and stepped out of the cockpit. "She must have feinted from the stress."
As Cecile worked on disarming the device Nunnally watched a nearby window with Sayako appearing next to her in a puff of smoke. "Good work, Sayoko."
"Thank you, Lady Nunnally. It was fortunate our eyes spotted the energy from the device." Sayoko bowed to her lady.
Nunnally nodded and closed her eyes. "The battle is ending. My brother has pushed back the defenses around the government bureau and with Cornelia captured the battle will soon end."
"What will you do when it is over, my lady?" Sayoko asked.
Nunnally opened her eyes. "I will wait for when the time is right. As Zero leads the revolution as head of the Black Knights, Infinity will watch from the shadows and plot the downfall of the Emperor and his secret order. Is V.V. secured?"
"Yes, my lady. My animals are keeping a close watch on him and should he try anything they know what to do." Sayoko nodded.
Nunnally smiled and looked more like her brother in that moment than ever before. "Good. Then for now… Let's watch as a new nation is born."
