Chapter 6: Jeremiah Gottwald

Far away from Lelouch and his allies began planning their defense, two people were just waking up from their own coma. One of them wore a black school uniform and had brown hair with brown eyes, his name was Suzaku Kururugi. The other wore a blue military outfit and had green hair with one orange eye and a Geass canceler on his other. This was Suzaku's commanding officer, Lord Jeremiah Gottwald.

"Commander. Are you alright?", asked Suzaku

"Yes, Kururugi. I'm fine.", answered Jeremiah as began looking around, "Where are we?"

The two observe their surroundings. They were right next to a freshwater pond. Behind them, there was a massive grass field with no one in sight. As they were about to start moving, Suzaku noticed a woman walking their way. She was a pink/white royal robe and had long, purple hair.

"Sir, I think that's Princess Cornelia?", assumed Suzaku

Jeremiah saw the woman and immediately smiled.

"Cornelia!", he exclaimed as he ran towards her

As he got close to her, she suddenly kicked him in the stomach, sending him flying back.

"Commander!", shouted Suzaku

Jeremiah got up slowly, shock at this action.

"Why, sweet lavender princess?", he asked

"Don't act like you don't know!", Cornelia spat out with a scowl

"What?", asked Jeremiah

"You and your protégé have allied yourselves with the criminal mastermind, Zero.", stated Cornelia, "You have betrayed your nation and my father. You'll pay with your life!"

"Your father, King Charles, is a monster from the pits of Hell! I did what was best for Britannia and her people!", exclaimed Jeremiah

Result: Jeremiah Wins

"Forgive me, your highness.", said Jeremiah somberly

"Sir, we need to leave! My tracking watch just picked several negative lifeforms heading this way.", announced Suzaku

"Right. Come on, Suzaku!", ordered Jeremiah

The soldiers quickly began running through the grassy field, hoping to make it to the trees. Suddenly, a missile hit not far away from them. The impact knocked them both away from each other. Jeremiah got up and saw what looked like a metallic, blue hedgehog on two legs flying towards him.

"Pathetic human, now you will die.", declared Metal Sonic

He launched another missile which Jeremiah managed to dodge.

"Don't bother resisting. It will only prolong your inevitable demise.", gloated Metal Sonic

Fight 2: Jeremiah Gottwald vs. Metal Sonic

Result: Jeremiah Wins

"I know my demise is inevitable, just not today machine.", stated Jeremiah

He quickly dodged a kick from behind. He saw his attacker was bald, had a thick, brown mustache, and was wearing goggles on his eyes and his head. He wore a red and yellow long-sleeved shirt, white gloves, and black pants w/boots.

"Who are you, interloper?", Jeremiah demanded

"My name is Doctor Ivo Robotnik, but everyone calls me Doctor Eggman.", the man introduced himself

"What is your issue involving me, Doctor Eggman?", asked Jeremiah

"Simple.", said Eggman, "You attacked my allies. Therefore, you are my enemy. Now, I will destroy you and help King Charles take over the universe!"

Fight 3: Jeremiah Gottwald vs. Boom Eggman

Result: Jeremiah Wins

"The universe is meant to be ruled by no one!", shouted Jeremiah

"Sir, they're retreating.", said Suzaku, "Let's get out of here while we can!"

The two quickly escaped into the trees and out of view.

"That was close.", sighed Suzaku

After a few minutes rest, they began their trek through the woods. After about an hour, they came across a strange object. It was a giant glowing emerald, that was about the size of a table.

"What is this, Commander?", asked Suzaku

"I don't know.", answered Jeremiah, "But it's clearly important. I say we keep watch over this thing to ensure none of the people we encountered earlier try to take it."

"Yessir.", replied Suzaku

Later that night, after they had set up camp near the emerald, both Jeremiah and Suzaku were fast asleep. What they didn't know was that something was above them, waiting to attack.

"I will not let you take the Master Emerald!", the creature snarled

When morning came, both Suzaku and Jeremiah were getting ready to be on the move. As Jeremiah went to use one of his devices to help carry the emerald, the creature struck.

"GET AWAY FROM THAT!", It shouted

Jeremiah barely avoided a massive punch that caused smoke to cover the area. When it died down, standing in the middle was something that Jeremiah's jaw dropped. It was a red echidna on two legs, wearing green/white shoes, and white gloves in its hands.

"What is your problem?!", yelled Suzaku

"I am Knuckles, protector of the Master Emerald.", declared the echidna, "I absolutely despise anyone who thinks that they can just take it."

Knuckles went for another attack. Jeremiah snapped out of his trance and dodged the punch.

"I understand for your concern.", he stated, "But we are not trying to take this."

"Pfft, that's what they all say.", scoffed Knuckles

"Well then, I guess I must convince you by force.", retorted Jeremiah

Fight 4: Jeremiah Gottwald vs. Knuckles the Echidna

Result: Jeremiah Wins

"Are you calmed down now?", asked Jeremiah

Knuckles got up and swept his shoulders off.

"Sorry.", he commented, "I've never been in this world before. So, seeing someone I've never met near the Master Emerald, just set me off."

"Apology accepted.", said Jeremiah, "I am Commander Jeremiah Gottwald. This is my second-in-command Suzaku Kururugi."

"Hello.", greeted Suzaku, "We had just escaped some enemies when we found this 'Master Emerald'. We kept watch over it to make sure no one would try to steal it.

"I see.", replied Knuckles, "Well, thank you. But I need to find my friends and protect this gem."

"We'll help.", answered Jeremiah, "This device I have can shrink and unshrink anything when I press this red button. Watch."

He then pushed on the device. It shone a ray on the Master Emerald, causing to shrink far enough to fit in one's hand. Knuckles then walked over and picked it up.

"Thank you.", he said with a smile, "Perhaps it would be better to stick with you guys. You were heading in the same direction."

"Very well then.", stated Jeremiah

The three then took off the direction that was heading directly towards Lelouch's fortress.
