The Demon and the Red Moon

Be sure to check after the chapter for some questions and updates! Love all of you!

"You understand the order," the prince told the emerald witch.

"I do, but I don't see why you need such an exotic plan," C commented.

Lelouch smiled in the dark and curled up next to Kallen's sleeping form.

"It's to fulfill my wishes."

Chapter 22

"We will capture Zero, or rather Lelouch, for Britannia," Villeta declared. "In exchange, Ohgi and I will receive exonerations, titles, and full Britannian citizenship for Ohgi."

Schneizel said nothing. Villeta must have known that it was indeed within Schneizel's power to reward these things. The Germanic prince glanced at Nunnally.

"Lelouch may be turning people to his cause, but that is not outside what many of my siblings, and even I, have done. And he is my brother. So admittedly I am emotionally compromised about this kind of decision."

"Brother Schneizel," came Nunnally's voice. Schneizel looked to his little sister and moved to kneel beside her, placing a hand on her arm.

"What is it, Nunnally?"

The blind princess didn't move her head to angle her face at Schneizel.

"If Lelouch formed the Black Knights it must have been for a good reason, and he's helped many people on both sides, both Eleven and Britannian." Schneizel frowned. Nunnally made a valid point, which Schneizel had already considered, but having it repeated out loud reaffirmed Schneizel's doubts.

"If you seek to capture Lelouch," Schneizel declared, standing straight again. "I have conditions. Lelouch must be captured with as little permanent harm as possible, and this point I must make adamant. Secondly, you will deliver him to me, and only me."

The next morning Kallen was awoken slowly by the feeling of kisses being placed on her bare shoulder. Lelouch was in bed behind her, clearly already awake, and apparently feeling rather feisty. The noble merely hummed and rolled over, bouncing on the bed to free her limbs from themselves and the sheets.

Kallen's cerulean eyes met Lelouch's amethyst with a sleepy smile on the fighter's part. Lelouch didn't smile back but obviously was in just a good a mood as Kallen.

"I've been up the last hour and 13 minutes, and spent most of that time trying to define the term for our relationship," Lelouch announced, clearly trying to outsource the problem of definition to Kallen. (That was lie, he'd barely slept an hour that night, but Kallen didn't need to know about his sleeplessness.)

"You're cute when you're dumb," Kallen replied, closing her heavy lids. Lelouch made a sound indicating his taking offense. Kallen smirked imagining his expression.

"Madam, I have never," Lelouch declared, correcting Kallen once and for all, "and will never, be classified by such a low and incorrect word as 'dumb'." Kallen made a thoughtful sound, feeling mischievous as she wracked her brain for adjectives.

"Moronic?" Kallen offered, teasing. "Witless? Vapid?"

"Seems someone looked at thesaurus," Lelouch replied, then added teasingly. "Once."

"Vacuous?" Kallen continued, beginning to giggle as she spoke, bemused at her own stubbornness actually affecting Lelouch. "Doltish? Bovine?"

"Are you quite done?" Lelouch asked, politely indignant.

"Gormless," Kallen finally added, smirking to herself.

Lelouch lunged.

His fingers were like talons when they his her exposed ribs.

Kallen bucked with a squeal.

Lelouch recoiled, shocked and ecstatic at this newest revelation.

Kallen was ticklish.

And now Lelouch knew it.

"No," Kallen warned, pointing a finger back at Lelouch, wary and knowing the content of his mind. Lelouch's smug grin became suddenly terrifying, as the darkness inside Lelouch's jewel-like eyes deepened with thought. "No!" Kallen's warnings were like as to scolding a child. Lelouch didn't drop his smirk. "No no no nononono."

Lelouch attacked, choosing a pincer attack. Kallen's free hand intercepted the higher up of his hands, the one that was most free since he wasn't laying on it. But Lelouch brought the remainder of his force behind, closing the distance between attacker and the defender.

His pinned arm snuck in and began to engage the targeted area. Kallen squealed again and bucked, trying to roll away from him, her legs kicking. Lelouch launched his torso up somewhat to press his elbow into the bed to support him to lean over Kallen.

Her strength in her free hand forgotten by the ambush, Lelouch's free hand was able to disengage and press the attack on the secondary target, adjacent to the first objective. Lelouch quickly ended the engagement however, reaching for her shoulder.

Kallen came back to not being tickled, and became aware when her eyes opened again that she was on her back and looking up into Lelouch's sheepish grin. The prince's breath was growing warmer against her, his smell was in her nostrils, his warm body was against her skin. He was close. He was-

Knock knock knock.

He was going to hold her back from murdering this interrupting mother fucker.

"Lelouch?" came Ohgi's voice. "I need to speak to you."

Kallen froze. Lelouch's face turned hard almost at the same time.

"Kallen," Lelouch said softly, almost a whisper. "If I have to kill him, will this compromise us, whatever we are?" Kallen frowned at Lelouch's question.

Kaname Ohgi had been Naoto's friend. Ohgi had helped Kallen come back from the pit of despair that Naoto's death had caused, and had acted as a surrogate older brother. Kallen had begged and pleaded to join Ohgi's, formerly Naoto's, resistance group to get revenge against Britannia. Killing Ohgi brought forth a swirl of emotions.

"Don't do it," Kallen whispered back. She thought for a few moments to add some kind of condition, like if Lelouch's life was in danger, or even her own, but then she thought that if Lelouch could manage to out think and maneuver Cornelia, then he could probably avoid killing Ohgi, even if his life was in danger.

Lelouch frowned thoughtfully and rolled over. Lelouch quickly pulled on some clothes. Kallen blushed at remembering last night and began to drag sheets to herself.

Lelouch didn't go to answer the door until he was fully clothed, and before he even did that, he pulled on his royal blue coat, and buttoned the pair of golden buttons around it. He also slipped a Britannian pistol into the coat.

Ohgi didn't seem surprised to see Lelouch dressed that way. Ohgi knew Lelouch was Britannian, or at the very least European, and nobility, so it was somewhat expected. Ohgi was dressed in a t-shirt and a worn but rugged coat, with a six-pointed star device sewed to the front.

"Hello again, Ohgi," Lelouch greeted, affecting a polite and light tone, trying to appear non-threatening, should Ohgi choose to attack.

"Can we talk outside?" the resistance leader asked.

"Of course," Lelouch declared, still smiling cordially.

"I know you're Zero," Ohgi declared once the pair were standing outside of the apartment building. Lelouch didn't seem surprised, merely watching Ohgi with an impassive expression. Ohgi's speech dropped off.

"I see," Lelouch replied, non committal. He wasn't ready to Geass Ohgi yet, nor to disable him or even kill him. Perhaps Ohgi still believed in the idea of Zero, if not the actual man, now.

"That's it?" Ohgi asked, not believing such a passive statement.

The prince didn't answer, still unsure of where he stood.

"Villeta clearly told you," Lelouch noted correctly, slightly urging Ohgi to continue his train of speech.

"More than that," Ohgi noted. "We met Orange-boy, or Jeremiah, or whatever his name was. Jeremiah knew Princess Euphemia, and Villeta knew you. So we went to the government building to meet Euphemia. But instead we met Schnizel." Ohgi's mispronunciation didn't faze Lelouch, who merely watched the rebel.

"Schneizel," Lelouch corrected softly. "He's the second prince of Britannia, probably the most powerful next to Charles. Most people never even see him, and you exchanged words with him I assume. If nothing else I've moved you up in the world, Ohgi." Ohgi blinked, stunned. He was a lowly Japanese, and had met the man who stood next to the Emperor of Britannia.

"He thanked us for the information, but we didn't have you, so clearly there was no real reward," Ohgi explained. Lelouch seemed to stiffen slightly, as if becoming alert. "You have to understand," Ohgi began. "I thought you were misguided, or swallowed by rage or a hypocrite. You attacked a school, full of children."

Lelouch winced. He'd put a sword through Kusakabe's stomach for much the same thing, though Lelouch's reasons were different.

"And you ordered me to do the same as you killed Kusakabe for. I was a teacher before the Invasion. Schools were like sacred ground to me. When you wanted to declare war on the JLF for Kusakabe's attack, I agreed with you without you even asking, and that was why." Lelouch paused as Ohgi spoke, and smiled slightly, gazing at Ohgi with a newfound respect.

Lelouch looked away, his attention drawn by the sound of Kallen slamming the door behind her and walking out to meet Lelouch and Ohgi.

"I'm gonna run by my Dad's house," she ace declared by way of explanation. "I gotta get some stuff from home, and I thought I'd head back to Asheford and check on the student council." Lelouch looked back to Ohgi, who seemed to be watching him.

"Good idea, Kallen," Lelouch declared, smiling.

"Yeah," Ohgi agreed, smiling genuinely at Kallen a moment.

(Are you sincere,) Lelouch pondered to himself, thinking on Ohgi. (Or do you want Kallen out of the way, or to protect her, when you move on me?)

"So what happened with Schneizel?" Lelouch asked, curious.

Ohgi's eyes whipped back to Lelouch.

"Villeta offered to attempt to capture you, with my help. But I betrayed my friend's safety and didn't get anything from that Prince. I said 'no, thank you,' and left." Ohgi waved a hand containing a folder.

All of what Ohgi said was possible. Villeta was ambitious, Lelouch had heard it from the woman's own lips. And Schneizel had seen that Lelouch was Zero during the Asheford incident. Hell, Milly and Rivalz and Nina and the whole school could have seen the incident. Ohgi and Villeta's news was old. There was no point to keeping Ohgi prisoner. Lelouch was the ultimate target most likely, according to Britannia. Without Zero, the Black Knights would fall apart and no longer be a great threat.

There was also the possibility that Ohgi was lying.

"What's in the folder?" Lelouch asked, faux curiosity in his voice. Ohgi looked down at the folder, as if surprised he had it, and offered it to Lelouch.

"A case for the Black Knights," Ohgi declared. "A Japanese serial killer."

"They have his name, why is he still free?" Lelouch's question was valid. The sheet was a police report, or wanted notice. A young adult named Light Yagami. There was a picture even, a young man with slightly reddish brown hair and dark eyes.

"They can't track him down. They caught him. There was a three minute police ride in the back of a jail car to the nearest precinct," Ohgi explained, as if in a mission briefing. "In that time, he convinced the second seat officer in the car to put his gun in his mouth, and the first one to free him, before also committing suicide."

"That's interesting, but still seems a matter for local police," Lelouch declared.

"He," Ohgi began, clearly uncomfortable mentioning something. "He also convinced the officer to shoot his wife, before committing suicide." Lelouch sensed there was more coming.

"And?" Lelouch asked, crest-fallen to hear more.

"And the only witnesses to Light's crime," Ohgi regretfully added. Lelouch exhaled, knowing that was not the final note.

"And?" Lelouch asked, feeling depressed.

"And the wife's and officer's kids, too." Lelouch winced.

"This guy needs to -ing die," Kallen declared, perturbed and angry. Lelouch made a sound of agreement.

"This isn't the sort of case that the Black Knight's are designed for, however. But since Ohgi is here, I propose," Lelouch looked back to up Ohgi. "You and I should investigate personally and undercover."

"You want me to come with?" Kallen's question turned Lelouch's head.

"No," Lelouch declared. "Go ahead with your own plans, Ohgi and I should be fine." Kallen leaned in and kissed Lelouch. Lelouch enjoyed the contact for as brief as it was till she broke the kiss and leaned into speak into his ear. Lelouch moved a light hand to lay on her hip.

"I'll get you back for earlier, your highness," she declared in a whisper. Lelouch gave a soft sniff of amusement and tapped her hip. "You take care of each other." With that parting she left.

(Let's hope only the way you're thinking of,) Lelouch noted uncomfortably. Then again this Light Yagami seemed more dangerous immediately.

"What's the deal with Lelouch?" Milly and Rivalz demanded, cornering Kallen.

"I don't know where Lelouch is," Kallen lied, acting disturbed by how her friends were behaving.

"Cut the crap, Kallen," Milly declared. "You've been lying to us for the past year, at least, all those fake illnesses. Hell, I saw you standing beside Zero wearing a shoddy mask." (Damn your fashion sense to hell, Lelouch,) Kallen cursed internally as Milly continued. "And you're way to active to pull it off anyway, and that text when you snuck in to Lelouch's room to take his virginity!"

"Wait, wha?" Rivalz interjected. Kallen was beet red at this point, eyes wide as saucers.

"Admit it," Milly ordered. "You made sweet love to him, sister, and you probably did it again judging by your glow!" ("Glow?") Kallen questioned to herself, completely WTF'd at this.

"Dafu..." Kallen trailed off, still afraid of the blonde student president.

"And Lelouch is a prince of Britannia, besides, and I saw him take off Zero's mask, and order that guy to kill himself. Now come clean before we call the cops!"

Kallen ripped her pink pouch from her back and stuck the knife to Milly's neck.

"Friends are killing friends now?" Milly accused, putting her hands on her hips, glaring daggers at Kallen. Kallen winced and pulled the knife back.

"How much do you actually know?" Kallen asked, pulling her knife back.

It turns out, after Milly had taken the three to a locked and emptry and soundproof, as a precaution, class room, that Milly knew quite a lot. Kallen and Milly wound up trading notes and informing Rivalz.

"Do you even know who Marianne was?" Milly had asked Kallen. When Kallen shook her head, Milly sighed and began to explain.

"Marianne wasn't born wealthy. She's solid middle-class, at best, what with her parent's being French immigrants to Japan. Back in those days, the Asheford Family owned a robotics buisness. If you know about the history of Knightmare Frames, you'll know that the earliest examples were walking escape pods for tanks. They put some guns on 'em for the later generations, but Asheford made the quantum leap with the Ganymede.

"Marianne wasn't even working for us back then," Milly added. "She signed up on a bulletin for a little extra cash. She was a plain student here, back when it was just a normal school for Europan people living in Japan. In a few years, she made the Ganymede and Ashefords popular and vogue. Even the mainland Britannian Imperial Family was talking about it.

"She was invited to Britannia along with a few Asheford family members to show off the device. This was during the Emblem of Blood."

"Wait," Rivalz interjected to ask, "What was the Emblem of Blood?"

Kallen frowned before deciding to answer.

"From what I know, Charles the current Emperor killed a lot of his family to ascend the throne, and in reality the war didn't end there. People were still seeking revenge on him and trying to kill him to get the throne even after he was married a few times." Rivalz just stared at Kallen, aghast at the idea.

"Some people in the nobility say it hasn't really ended, it's just a cold war now," Milly added. "And Charles has a lot of younger cousins still in line to the Throne behind his sons. When the Emperor dies, it might turn into a full civil war to claim the throne."

"Okay, but how does that involve Lelouch's mom?" Kallen frowned at the question, still curious herself.

"She saved Charles's life with the Ganymede," Milly asked. "Some idiots tried to assassinate him while he was admiring the Ganymede, or Marianne maybe, judging by the fact they had kids later. Marianne used the Knightmare to stop the attack. Charles made her a Knight of the Rounds on the spot after that attack was over. If she hadn't been there Britannian might not exist as it is today."

"Does anyone know a Lelouch?" came a shouting voice. The three student councilors turned their heads to the nearest window and flung it open to look outside.

"Does Lelouch vi Britannia have friends here?" Jeremiah Gottwald shouted, his voice demanding. He looked around the yard of Asheford Academy as students looked at him oddly. Normally he might have understood, but he was worried about other things.

"Does anyone know Lelouch?" He demanded again, scanning. No one seemed to want to come forward.

"Who's asking?" Jeremiah's head whipped to gaze at the blonde who'd shouted back.

"Milly, no!" Kallen hissed in Milly Asheford's ear. Jeremiah could hear it, all the way from where he stood, meters away.

"I'm Jeremiah Gottwald, a man who once served a woman named Marianne Lamperouge, who bore two children. Nunnally vi Britannia, and Lelouch vi Britannia, who you obviously know as Lelouch Lamperouge." Jeremiah could see the recognition flash in the blonde girl's eyes.

Jeremiah ignored the confused whispers of the students around him. 'Lelouch was a prince?' 'He knows Lelouch's mom?' 'No wonder they were so good looking!' he continued to step closer. A black haired student rushed Jeremiah.

"Rivalz don't!" Kallen shouted.

To Jeremiah Rivalz Candemonde was moving in slow motion.

"You won't get to Lelouch," Rivalz declared as a battlecry.

Gottwald merely pushed Rivalz aside, and the young noble was sent flying to land a meter away. The noble rolled and gripped his now broken shoulder.

"Where is Lelouch?" Jeremiah demanded, his face grim.

"I don't know where he is," Milly replied, crossing her arms and raising her face proudly. Jeremiah didn't respond, though he admitted he was impressed.

"If you're protecting Lelouch, then you and I have the same goal," Jeremiah declared.

"Light Yagami kills his victims with a chemical concoction. Causes a heart attack. He started by targeting criminals, but then he started killing those that suspected him, too." Ohgi's declaration to Lelouch provided the score as Ohgi led Lelouch to a small apartment in the Taito Ghetto.

"This is his old apartment," Ohgi announced, gesturing for Lelouch to enter.

Lelouch entered the apartment, and gazed around the small space.

"Writes the names of the victims down in a notebook," Ohgi added, closing the door behind him. Not quite, actually. The door was just slightly open, enough that someone could come in behind him.

Lelouch wasn't looking at him, scanning the room for clues. There were still a number of items in the apartment, though it seemed Light had abandoned it. A tennis racket, a baby crib, a jewelry box. Lelouch frowned and moved to the closet. There were a number of boy's clothes in the closet, along with a few dresses.

"What kind of person was this Light?" Lelouch asked, seeking more information from Ohgi. Ohgi blinked in surprise.

"Never knew him," Ohgi replied honestly.

"Well I expected that much," Lelouch declared, amused. "Look around the room, Ohgi. A man's belongings speak to his character." Ohgi made a surprised sound and made a confused one after as he examined the room.

"An active guy, judging from the tennis racket," Ohgi noted, stating the obvious. "Maybe takes in old stuff to repair, from the crib, or he was a family guy, or the tenant before left the stuff."

"I take it you read Manga," Lelouch commented. Ohgi blinked. "It's a medium that was created by the Japanese copying western drawing styles. Part of the cultural exchange that took place slowly as Japan tried to modernize before the Austria-Hungary War. They actually allied with Britannia in that war, against the Chinese."

"Yeah, I read some series," Ohgi confirmed.

"I found Death Note rather egotistical," Lelouch continued. "Kira tries to become a god by inspiring fear. But it was always interesting to see the game that occurred between he and L." Lelouch faced the wall, with his back to Ohgi.

"What?" Kallen asked the blue-haired cyborg.

"Lelouch has a traitor in his midst," Jeemiah repeated. "One of his allies, a Japanese man, is working with Villeta to capture Lelouch." Kallen remembered Villeta. She'd come into Kallen's apartment. She was-

Kallen had worn her uniform when she killed Clovis. Lelouch had already used his Geass on her. Kallen ripped her cell phone free and quickly dialed Lelouch.

"I'm slightly disappointed," Lelouch announced as Villeta entered the room. "Death Note was the best you could come up with to lure me away?" Lelouch almost spun to face the pair. "Do I look like L to you? Hello again, Villeta."

"No school girls this time, Lelouch?" Villeta asked, taunting. Lelouch just grinned sheepishly.

"What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger," Lelouch declared, bowing slightly. "I salute your impressive persistence, Miss Villeta." Lelouch's hands were at his side, one on his hip. "Tell me, did Schneizel request that you capture me alive?"

"He did," Villeta confirmed, before drawing a pistol. "But you'd be surprised what you can live through."

"Hardly," Lelouch declared. "Jeremiah survived being fried by the Guren's radiant wave, I lived through a dessicated warzone, carrying a cripple on my back. Even you, getting shot. The only that's surprised me lately, was your poor choice to bait me into such an obvious trap."

"Seemed effective enough," Villeta replied, raising her gun to aim it at Lelouch.

"True," Lelouch said, raising his hands and closing his eyes. "But you made a crucial mistake not giving Ohgi some glasses." His eye opened again.

"Disarm Villeta," Lelouch ordered. His Geass burned as it pulsed the command to Ohgi. He was moving as he spoke. Villeta fired the pistol as Ohgi's eyes glowed red.

Ohgi grabbed Villeta's gun hand and drove an elbow into Villeta's stomach. Villeta gave a cry of pain as she keeled over her ruined torso. Villeta's pistol came free, in Ohgi's hand. Lelouch's own gun was out by the time Ohgi's Geass command faded.

Lelouch acted quickly, putting a round in Ohgi's knee, then shoulder. Lelouch moved to Villeta and put a round in her knee for good measure.

The conspirators dropped to the floor in a pained grunt. Lelouch walked over and placed a foot over the gun in Ohgi's hand. The leader looked up at the prince aiming a pistol into his head.

"Just kill me," Ohgi growled, gritting his teeth at falling for the Prince's counter-trap.

The moment stretched for a long time.

Lelouch's cell suddenly began to emit a ringing sound.

"I could," Lelouch admitted. He took his hand from cupping his gun hand to pull the phone free and tossing it to Ohgi. Ohgi answered it.

'Lelouch,' Kallen called, her voice panicked. 'Ohgi's still working with Villeta!'

"Answer it," Lelouch replied to Ohgi.

"Kallen," Ohgi greeted, his voice filled with shame.

'Where's Lelouch?' Kallen demanded. 'Is he alive?'

"Yeah," Ohgi replied, almost glaring up at the prince in question.

"Bastard," Villeta hissed at Lelouch.

"No," Lelouch corrected. "My parents were quite married when I was born, actually. Give me back the phone, slowly." Ohgi returned the device. Lelouch didn't look away from the pair as he held the phone to his ear.

"I'm doing very well, Kallen," Lelouch said into the phone cheerily. "How is life at Asheford?"

'LELOUCH YOU PUNK, I'M GOING TO DECK YOU-' Milly's voice raged into Lelouch's ear. The prince stepped backwards from Ohg and Villeta.

"Milly, this is hardly the time to discuss it," Lelouch replied into the phone. "Kallen, your doctor friend has two patients." Ohgi blinked in surprise. Lelouch was sending them to a doctor?

"You're stupid enough to patch me back up?" Villeta's query was serious, though her tone was not.

"Don't bother," Ohgi declared. "The Black Knights will never trust me again after this."

"You're giving up too easily," Lelouch declared. Lelouch hung up the line of the cell phone and looked back to the pair, lowering the gun. "Japan is called Area Eleven now, because men gave up too easily."

"I drowned half a town in mud," Lelouch reminded. "Do you think I sleep well? Or at all? If I quit because the price is too high, I can just quit when I want to, when the blood is already spilled?"

Ohgi appeared to think about this.

"You feel guilty? You're nothing like your father, Lelouch," Villeta commented, bemused at the black prince.

"Thank you," Lelouch replied, smirking, taking the comment as a compliment. "So if you want to take me to Schneizel, put some effort forth."

Li Xingke waited in the captured building that served as a command and control center for the Chinese Army Group that had taken possession of Kyoto. As he waited for the meeting, Xingke ran through a checklist of the attack plans.

Battleships were standing off Hokkaido to bombard any forces that sought to move south to pincer Xingke's main force, supported by a aircraft and carriers.

"I can't believe you agreed to this meeting," Sawasaki declared, not for the first time.

Xingke didn't look at the Japanese minister. The man was a manipulator and coward who'd run and begged and pleaded with the High Eunuchs to be given a force to retake Japan. Xingke was being punished, clearly. His refusal to kowtow and support the Eunuchs in everything clearly was being punished with this command.

Invading a country that Xingke believed the Japan that China had no stake in. If the Empress was only a bit older. If Puyi, the old Emperor, still lived. Ifs, ifs, ifs.

"Zero has clearly shown that he has the support of the Japanese people," Xingke declared by way of explanation. "You should seek to ally yourself with him to receive a bit of that support yourself."

"People do not determine who rules them," Sawasaki argued.

"A claim that the Empress and the Mandate of Heaven, which has ruled China forever, do not agree with," Xingke rebutted. Unfortunately, Xingke was becoming far too aware that the Eunuchs did agree with Sawasaki.

(These modernists have been too influenced by Britannia,) Xingke lamented privately. It seemed to be why the Eunuchs had developed the new pod-like "Knightmare Frames" that Xingke had been issued. The machines seemed reliable but didn't have the versatility of the Britannian originals. Xingke knew that they should have accepted the Indian's Burais and Gekkas instead.

Finally, the masked man was escorted in.

Shorter than Li Xingke had expected.

"Prince Schneizel," Villeta greeted, smirking despite holding her bleeding leg. "We deliver to you, Prince Lelouch vi Britannia." With that she stepped aside as Ohgi dragged in the black haired prince.

To be continued...?

Before you go, as we are in the end game of the first arc of Lelouch and Kallen's Bizarre Adventure (not JoJo's, different thing) came to give you some updates and pose some questions? Firstly, the next step of The Demon and Red Moon will not be involving Lelouch, at first. Basically we're gonna bridge the 4-year time-skip (WHAT?) between r1 and r2. Why 4 years? Well, lots of stuff, all to be revealed as we go.

So my question to you is would you like to simply continue the story in the original story post, or make second fictions for the continuation?

Leave your answers in the reviews and thanks for reading so far!
