Lelouch sighs as he enters his home, knowing what to expect as he enters the dining room, his chest tightening as he sees his sister, happily making cranes with the green haired witch.
"Ah, Lelouch your home, is everything alright? You werent answering my calls, so I got worryed you got tangled up in that Zero nonsense" Worry obvious in her voice and on her face, "Ah, and miss C.C. was waiting here for you as well, right miss?"
"Yes, but I believe i'm in the way right now," C.C. stands up, patting the troubled prince in hiding as she walks past "Enjoy some time with her okay? I'll be in the other room if you need anything, talk to you later Nunnally"
Lelouch walks over taking a seat in the chair previously occupied, gently taking his sisters hand, a pained look going over his face as those final moments roll through, all the things he had her do to stop him, "Nunnally, I-I'm so sorry... all the things I did, the thing I-I made you do, all of it, i'm so sorry..."
At first, she raised her eyebrow in confusion, then her mouth dropped as tears started streaming down her cheek, slowly she opened her eyes as she cupped her troubled brothers cheek, "I forgive you, Lelouch..."
His facade crumbled as he embraced his sister, tears streaming down both their cheeks, "Nunnally..."
She smiled as she comforted him, "Shhh, relax, we've got a couple years to talk about now don't we, Lelouch?"
He nodded into her small shoulder, as they calmed down, taking the time to talk over everything that had happened after his 'murder'.
PB
Lelouch tucked his sister into bed, a warm smile on both their faces, a calm silence over the room as they had finished talking about the future.
"You wont leave again will you?" asked the small frail girl, a look of concern over her face, "You wont go through with that again will you?"
He nodded, "I won't, I promise"
She held out her pinky, "If your lying you know the consequences."
He hooked his around hers, "And I sure dont want any needles in my eyes."
She smiled as she took it away, "At least, I know every secret you could have now"
Lelouch's lips curved into a sly grin, "Oh do you now?"
Nunnally smiled back in her usual fashion, "I personally would have prefered C.C. or Shirley"
Lelouch's smile quickly turns into a frown, a small click coming from his mouth, "When did you get so perceptive..."
"When I saw Kallen visiting your grave, and how she was treated in confinement before our 'execution'."
Lelouch took a step back at that one, "I-I wasn't actually going to go through with it you know that right?"
She smiled her normal smile, "You'll repay me later, after all, that is no way to treat an Empress."
He sighed as he patted her head, "Yeah yeah, goodnight."
She nodded back, her smile unfaltering as she quickly went to sleep, the Demon Emperor using this chance to escape.
PB
C.C. was waiting in the living room, her trusted pizza hut menu and stamp in hand, her eyes gazing over the menu as Lelouch walked in.
"Dont you ever get tired of pizza?"
"Do I ever get tired of you?"
He smirks, "Your still here arent you?"
She remained unfazed, "But the love of my life isnt so I plan to change that"
He sighs before cracking a small smile, going over and patting her on the head, "Never change C.C., I'd be lonely without my confidant and accomplice"
"I guess I have no choice, since your paying anyways."
This earned another sigh from the noirette, "Just dont use everything..."
She smiled, setting down the stamp before picking up a phone, "I also dont need your card anymore I still have it memorized"
Another sigh came right as there was a ring from the main room, "I'll get it, wouldnt want to interrupt the love birds in here" The prince said, cracking a smile as he left.
"At least someone in this house is getting laid tonight!" shouted the witch after him.

-Your Majesty, oh how good it is to be able to speak with you again-
The former emperor sighed and his brows furrowed, "I'm assuming you know your role?"
-Affimitive, I shall act koi and continue with the old timeline to help boost Kururugi's chance at become the Princesses Knight-
"Good, looks like that end should be covered, though it truly is a shame we dont have your eye anymore, it would significantly increase my power..."
-If Your Majesty request it, then I shall go as far as to conquer the Gates of Hell and bring back a trophy- The Margrave exclaimed, adding a smile to his masters face.
"But you mustn't lose, you are after all one of my most trusted knights, and it'd sadden me greatly if you were to be injured" The princes smile ever widening, "So you know what must be done right?"
-Yes,Your Majesty, I shall have them ready by Thursday around 1930-
"Good, you may go, and Jeremiah..."
-Yes, Your Majesty?-
"It's nice to hear from you again..."
-You as well, Your Majesty-
PB
Suzaku quickly left the courthouse, making sure not to try to miss the biggest event in his lifeAfter about 10 minutes of constantly checking his watch and a small amount of pacing as he tried to plan what to say when they meet again, he heard a cry above him, his cheeks turning a little red as he dove underneath the falling princess.
"Are you okay?" The gentle face of the woman he loved close to his, his heart rate increasing every second.
"Y-yes, are you hurt at all anywhere?" A small amount of panick on his face as he tried to squelch these long lost emotions, "It'd be a shame for some as beautiful as you to be covered with bandages" His voice sincere with every fiber in his heart.
This got an unexpected result as the pink haired girl's face turned a deep red, "W-what are you saying, a-and to someone you just meat?"
Suzaku smiled and laughed lightly, "My apologies, but i couldnt help myself, anyways are you being chased by some bad people right now?"
Her blush spread a bit more before she nodded and got off of her would be Knight, her hands going up to cover her mouth.
He took her hand as they began to run, the Kururugi boy trying his best to act like they had just meet, leading her along the route he fondly remembered they had gone through, showing her all the ins and out of the places they visited.
PB
Jeremiah smirked inside his knightmare, his three subordinates staring him down in their own. Now how shall I handle this, I cant just crush them, thatd be better than they deserve.
-/- Jeremiah! For dishonoring our purist, you shallshall die! but dont worry, well make it quick!-/-
Jeremiah sighed heavily into his mic, -/- The three of you babes couldnt kill me even with knightmares three generations ahead! but nows not the time for talk, nows the time for action!-/-
He charged the nearest knightmare, his stun tonfa crushing his Factsphere, his laughter going through his speakers.
The two other knightmares turned and began to open fire once their comrade ejected from his knightmare, The knight using the Knightmare corpse as a shiled as he returned fire, aiming to disable the chaos mines that his past allys have on them
PB
Suzaku stood there with his jaw slack, as he watched Jeremiah handle his coworkers with ease, almost treating them like children.
He sighed thinking hed be unable to help now due to the Knight of Orange's overwhelming tenacity over those weak spined britannians, The princess thought otherwise, "Suzaku, can you help me stop them?!" He smirked and nodded, offering a slight bow.
"If that is what you wish then I shall follow through with whatever My Princess request," as her face heats up he takes out the Lancelots key and begins to walk towards where the good doctor hide it for him, "Do not worry Princess, no one shall be harmed if I have anything to do about it!"
She smiled, her cheeks still rosy as she made her way down a bit to try to stall.
PB
Jeremiah knew that the boy was coming already, he just needed to play the act of the bad guy a bit longer, and let him prove his skill even over someone as good as he is. Though to make it convincing enough to trick that battle maniac is going to take some serious effort.
He sighed again, as he smashed the head off of Kewell's southerland, a smile growing as he sees the Knight of Zero slide down the hill, moving rapidly towards him, Now how will I handle you?, He backs up leaving the last frame crippled by blowing off his leg.
He hit a few buttons by his communicator, imputing the Lancelots code, Suzaku picking up immediately, "My apologies, I was suppose to put up a good fight for you to help, but I got a bit carried away."
Suzaku smiled as they fought half heartedly but still convincingly, "Your fine, im assuming our mutual friend woke you up as well?"
"Oh how im glad he had done so, so I may serve him throughout this entire endevor, regardless the path he takes"
The brown haired boy sighed as he knocked his fellow knight to the ground, his swosword aimed at the cockpit, finishing their battle with decisive finess, "Hopefully he chooses a bit of a better one..."
Jeremiah nods and relents the fight to his superior, a small chuckle coming from them both before the communication was cut off.
Sorry everyone for taking a while with the new chapter, been a bit busy then all my previous 'work' was gone so... im back?
