Stage 4: The Green Witch
Lelouch was coming home exhausted after saving Suzaku. After rescuing him he hid the bike away. He opens the door expecting to be greeted by Nunnally or Sayako but…
"Welcome home, Lelouch." The same green haired girl from Shinjuku said. Lelouch was surprised and speechless. The girl was folding origami cranes with Nunnally.
"Oh thank goodness your home! I was so worried." Nunnally said.
"I assume you ate out tonight judging by your appearance." The girl said plainly.
"I thought you would be caught up in the uproar by that man, Eternal. I tried calling you but you wouldn't answer also Miss CC was waiting for you."
"CC?" Lelouch said looking at the girl. Nunnally nodded.
"She has such an unusual name, only her initials. I have to ask is CC your girlfriend?"
"He made a promise about our future, right?" CC asked placing Lelouch back in reality.
"As in marriage?" It was Lelouch's turn to speak.
"No! She's just kidding!"
"No I'm not."
"Well I suppose it depends on the type of person after all…" While Nunnally was speaking Lelouch grabbed a tea cup and threw it on the ground, leaving only pieces.
"Oh look CC, you got yourself wet! Let's go find you a change of clothes." Lelouch grabbed CC's arm and dragged her to his room. "Don't worry Nunnally I'll get that cleaned up. Oh and what she said is just joke." When the two entered he let go. "Who are you?"
"Didn't you hear her? She said my name, CC."
"Not that, aren't you-?"
"Supposed to be dead?" Lelouch just looked at her. "So, how do you like the power I gave you?"
"So it was you."
"Dissatisfied?" CC then moved towards the bed but sat up.
"I'm grateful actually it was one of the few things that sped up my schedule."
"Your schedule?"
"To destroy Britannia. I don't intend to rely on it too much due to my Option A but it's good to have a B." CC then went in her pocket and grabbed something that Lelouch didn't expect.
"I assume 'Option A' is something like this?" In her hand was a USB flash drive. It was green and had the letter C which was made up of wind gusts. She pressed on it.
"CYCLONE!"
"GaiaMemory!? Where did you find this?" Lelouch was about to take it but CC's arm quickly moved away.
"I found it in a pile of rubble shortly after you left me. Now, time to answer my question; what is a GaiaMemory?" Lelouch just looked at her.
"You won't answer my question, why should I answer yours?"
"I could just throw it away or hide it seeing how it is important to you." Lelouch growled but went in his pocket and pulled out his and pressed on his for emphasis.
"ETERNAL!"
"GaiaMemories are device containing the power and knowledge of a certain aspect of Earth itself." CC examined hers with interest.
"Interesting ,how many are there?"
"In this world, 26, one for each alphabet."
"This world?" Lelouch began to explain where the T2 memories came from but left a few details out. He also told her about how the GaiaMemories are sentient and that they choose their users. CC was surprised but her face remained passive as she examined hers. "So I've been lucky enough to be picked one?"
"Yes, now give it here." Lelouch made another attempt to grab it but failed.
"Not so fast. It's mine after all me finding it must mean that I'm one that's been chosen." CC then looked at her arm and found a USB entry port. Out of curiosity, CC was about to stick it in but was immediately stopped by Lelouch.
"You don't want to do that."
"Why?"
"When a GaiaMemory is plugged into a human, they transform into superhumans called Dopants. The users won't be in control and will lose control due to their raw power."
"Aren't you one?"
"No, I'm a Kamen Rider, completely different."
"How so?" Lelouch grabbed out his LostDriver and CC looked a little intrigued.
"I use a Driver, devices that filter the raw power but give the user the power without losing control. Mine is called a LostDriver, a Driver that doesn't transform me into a Dopant but gives me armor with powers relating to my Memory. The LostDriver is also the key to Rider System." Lelouch explained and CC nodded understanding.
"Can I use it? I'm curious what my rider form looks like?" Lelouch quickly placed it back in his coat.
"Sorry but I only developed one working Driver and the failed prototypes are mostly destroyed and salvaged." CC then looked to her right.
"Then what's that?" CC asked pointing to her right. Lelouch looked and saw an incomplete LostDriver on his workbench.
"Dammit! I forgot about that." Lelouch looked at CC who was giving him a plain look waiting for an answer.
"I began working on a spare in case anything happened to mine."
"So I could use it?"
"Why should I let you?"
"Because I can't let you get yourself killed due to our contract and won't you need all the help you need considering you're trying to take down an empire?" CC got him that time. Lelouch did need more Riders but then he thought about what she said.
"Speaking of which, what is the deal with that contract?" CC just gave looked at him.
"Nothing you need to worry about for now. All you need to do is live."
"What about the military? Aren't they looking for you?"
"Not all of them, just a small fraction so it shouldn't be hard to hide. I can make due here." Lelouch's eyes as CC took off her clothes and placed herself in the blanket of the bed. She still had the Cyclone Memory in her hand. "A gentleman would sleep on the floor."
"Don't be ridiculous, this is my problem I don't need you involved."
"Ok, so I'll let them find me…along with the GaiaMemory." Lelouch growled and picked up her clothes.
"How did you live like this? What are you going to do with Cyclone Memory? Also what's the deal with the contract?"
"Goodnight, Lelouch." Lelouch growled again and realizes it's impossible to get the Memory now or for her to leave. To get his mind off this he went back to his workbench and resumed constructing the second Driver.
In the morning while Lelouch was changing into his uniform, CC was wearing one of his shirts while looking eating pizza and looking at a news article about Eternal.
"So how did you find the Eternal Memory?" Lelouch just looked at her.
"For someone who doesn't answer my questions you do a fine job making them."
"You don't have to answer my questions just as vice versa." Lelouch sighed.
"I didn't find mine, it found me." CC looked at him confused.
"What do you mean?"
"Exactly what I said."
"What about the LostDriver's construction? They were a piece of technology from another world. How did you create yours?"
"That's actually a long story…one I doubt you would believe."
"Try me."
"Either way I don't think enough time to answer it." CC gave a disappointed sigh and looked at the article.
"Because of you the world is in an uproar and people are looking for you, is this what you wanted?"
"No, this is only a side effect. After all, I intend to plunge the world into a deeper hell." As Lelouch got out his phone and pressed a few buttons on it. It transformed to a mechanical stag beetle. Lelouch opened the window and let it fly.
"What was that?"
"A scout." Lelouch learned to create Memory Gadgets from the Eternal Memory. He didn't just learned about the LostDriver but devices that will work well for him in his endeavor. He created his STAG phone out of pieces from the failed Driver prototypes. He then got out and left the witch.
Suzaku just left after his trial. They said that due to Eternal's confession and lack of evidence Suzaku was free to go. He was thinking about Eternal and what he said last night.
"Who was he? Was he the one that nearly killed me at Shinjuku?"
He then heard a female voice…from above.
"Out of the way please…LOOK OUT BELOW!"
Suzaku caught her and looked at her appearance. She had pale skin, light violet eyes, long pink hair. The girl looked at him.
"I'm sorry I didn't think there was anyone below me when I jumped."
"It's alright I wasn't expecting a girl to fall from the sky into my arms." The girl looked at Suzaku before saying something.
"Oh my…"
"What is it?"
"Well some bad guys were chasing me so please consider the circumstances, could you help me?"
"Uh…sure."
At Camelot base, Lloyd was trying to repair the Lancelot and trying to find ways it can stand up to that pilot from Shinjuku. Strangely, at the same time he was daydreaming about the technological advances Eternal had and applying it towards the Lancelot. Lloyd and Cecile watched Eternal's debut. Cecile was worried while Lloyd wanted to know how Eternal took down the Pureblood Sutherlands with only a combat knife. Cecile came in with a board.
"Lloyd!"
"Hm?"
"We just got a reply, they're sending it tonight. Look." Cecile gave Lloyd the board and behind him was a stag beetle. The beetle looked at it for a few seconds before flying away.
"Oh good! It might not be as good as the Lancelot but it's something to start with at least." Lloyd placed the board away and he and Cecile placed the mostly repaired Lancelot in the trunk of their truck. Cecile took the driver's seat while Lloyd stayed in the back to resume making repairs.
The school day is over and Lelouch was on the roof with CC after making sure that Kallen didn't see her. Lelouch was discussing with CC about his Geass and CC was reminding him that they're partners from now on until the STAG beetle flew into his hand. It transformed and displayed the data it found. He was hoping for a GaiaMemory signature but he found the next best thing on the monitor.
"Perfect, looks like I'll be busy tonight."
"What was it?"
"Oh just something I need to pick up, later." Lelouch placed his phone away. CC then asked him.
"How much longer do I have to wait until my Driver is complete?" Lelouch just looked at her with an annoyed look.
"First, it's not yours to begin with considering I'm the one constructing it. And second, it's almost done just a few more adjustments it should be completed in two days. The only reason why I'll let you use it is because I need help, that's all."
"You never told me where you learned to create the Driver. School is over and there's nothing in your way now." Lelouch sighed and started explaining his meeting with the original Eternal but excluded a few things.
Suzaku and the girl known as Euphie were at a make-shift cemetery for what happened at Shinjuku a few days ago.
"Shinjuku…completely destroyed. And the residents just came back." Suzaku said sadly while Euphie looked at all the grave markers. The two paid their respect until two high school students interrupted them.
The students were taking pictures until the local residents tried to stop them.
"Get out of here, you damn Brits!"
"How dare an Eleven speak!"
"I'm JAPANESE, not Eleven!" Suzaku can see the violence escalating and decided to intervene.
"Hey! Don't hurt them!" Tamaki pushed Suzaku.
"Stay out of this!" Suzaku's sunglasses fell revealing himself.
"Aren't you Suzaku Kururugi, the one that killed Clovis?"
"No, that was Eternal, remember?"
"Doesn't matter now you're an Honorary Britannian, sell-out, a traitor! And, you're supposed to be Japanese!"
"You're wrong."
"Bullshit!" Tamaki was about to punch him but Suzaku quickly grabbed his fist and flipped him over.
"Please, I have military training I don't want to fight my own people."
"Like hell we're your people." One of Tamaki's friends helped him up.
"C'mon let's go they're not worth it."
"Lousy traitor." Was all Tamaki said before he and the others left. Suzaku and Euphie checked on the students.
"Are you ok?"
"I'm fine!" Before Suzaku can say something a man appeared. He was in his 20s and clearly Japanese.
"Who are you?"
"Who cares! What about my camera?" one of the students said. The man pulled out a USB it was dark green and had the letter U with a unicorn at the head.
"UNICORN!"
The man pressed it in his skin before transforming. He was bigger, had armor, and a Unicorn head. He punched the ground which sent an electric current and shocked the two students.
"How could you!?" Euphie said.
"It's THEIR fault because of them we're reduced to nothing but trash!" The Unicorn Dopant said. He then faced Suzaku.
"You are their slave and I will liberate you."
Lelouch was continuing his work on the LostDriver until the STAG phone let out a ring. He looked at it and his eyes widened. He quickly changed into his Black Knight outfit and got out. On the way he sees CC holding a pizza box. Before she can ask he said.
"I have to take care of something." Lelouch exited his room and went into the basement. He pulled a lever revealing a concealed door. He went in and ran downstairs. There he sees his Rider bike, a few weapons, a few computers, a large tank like vehicle, and an empty space designed for a Knightmare. He got on the bike and pressed a few buttons on the phone, a road was revealed. Lelouch placed his helmet on and took a silenced pistol. He took out his LostDriver and placed it on along with the Eternal Memory.
"ETERNAL!"
"Henshin!"
"ETERNAL!"
Lelouch became Kamen Rider Eternal and drove away. When he was gone all that's left was a surprised and interested CC.
Suzaku and Euphy were running from the Unicorn Dopant who was firing electricity at them. Cecile and Lloyd see them and decided to help. Cecile got out and drew her gun and started shooting at the Dopant while it was no use.
"Your Highness, we have to get you and Suzaku out of here." Suzaku looked at Euphie in surprise, that his new friend turned out to be Princess Euphemia Li Britannia.
"Euphie?"
"Well...I…" Before Euphy can finish a bolt of lightning struck near them. They see the Unicorn Dopant in front of them and Cecile was out of bullets. Lloyd was about to suggest using the Lancelot but just remembered it still needed repairs.
"Now, time for-." Before he can finish he and the others hear a motorcycle. They all turned to see someone they didn't expect.
"Eternal!?" Eternal got off his motorcycle while driving and it rammed into the Dopant. Eternal quickly got on his phone and sent the bike into a different direction.
"Eternal! What do you want with me?" The Unicorn Dopant asked.
"You have something I want and it's out of your control." The Dopant realizes what he's referring to. Eternal quickly drew out his blade and attacked. He landed a few hits before the Dopant said.
"Like hell I would just give this up! Not after I saw what it can do!" Eternal just looked at him and shook his head.
"It would've been quick but now…I'm going to make it painful." Eternal then charged. While they were fighting everyone was amazed and Lloyd was recording all this.
"This is great! Devices that turn people into monsters while Eternal is properly combating them with the proper equipment."
"Lloyd this is hardy…why do I even bother?" Meanwhile a news team, headed by Diethard, was recording all of this. Originally they were supposed to do a piece on Shinjuku but instead they see the mysterious Kamen Rider Eternal fighting a monster.
"If only we were here sooner."
"Tom, are you getting this?"
"Yup, and Bob is on a higher position recording as well."
"Good work, everyone! Can't wait to see this on the news." Diethard said happily.
The Unicorn Dopant charged up his horn and fired lightning. In response, Eternal drew the Eternal Edge in front of him and the lightning deflected off of it and hit an empty building. Eternal charged and slashed at the Dopant again. The Dopant roared before charging its fists with lightning. It sent a punch to Eternal which threw him a couple of inches into the air but he landed on his feet. He looked up to see the Unicorn Dopant was about to punch again. Eternal dodged and stabbed him in the back. The Unicorn Dopant roared in pain before Eternal took out his Memory.
"Alright, let's end this." He placed it in the black slot to the right of his belt and pressed it.
"ETERNAL! MAXIMUM DRIVE!"
Eternal's foot started to go on fire and jumped into the air. He aimed his fiery foot at the Dopant and when he landed on his chest red flames spiraled around him. He jumped off before turning around and saying.
"Saa, jigoku o tanoshimina." Eternal gave a thumbs down just before the Dopant exploded. Suzaku, Cecile, and Lloyd realized now that Eternal was the pilot at Shinjuku. Eternal walked over to where the Unicorn Dopant was. He sees the user trying to get up but failed. Eternal picked up the Unicorn Memory and made his way towards his bike.
"Wait, Eternal!" Eternal got on the seat and turned to see Suzaku and the others.
"Kururugi, I didn't expect to see you here of all places. I see that you got out of court today."
"Eternal, what was that thing?"
"Nothing you should concern yourself with." Lloyd then approached him and got on his knees.
"Please sir! You must tell me how you did all that?" Eternal was surprised that one of Britannia's brilliant minds became a somewhat fan of his work specifically the Memories and the Driver. Before Eternal can reply he sees Diethard with a camera.
"Eternal! Any words for our viewers?" Eternal nodded.
"Britannia, your hell has just arrived." Eternal gave a thumbs down and drove away. Everyone looked at him and wondered about his intentions. To Euphie she felt that he was someone familiar.
It was night time and Eternal has just arrived at the docks. Eternal undid his transformation leaving only a hooded Lelouch in his Black Knight outfit, the one similar to Katsumi's. Lelouch got on his STAG Phone and used it to send the bike away. Lelouch drew his silenced pistol and jumped over the gate. He stopped at the end of a cargo box to see two Britannian soldiers on guard.
"Jesus, it's so late! What time do you think it is?" one of them asked.
"I don't know, pretty late." The other replied.
"It has to be somewhere around midnight, right?"
"I guess."
"You know who doesn't have patrol in the middle of the night? Jenkins!"
"Uh-huh."
"I bet he's in the ship right now. On the bed with his big freaking melon head on a soft pillow." As much as Lelouch would love to watch he had something to do. He carefully walked past the guards.
"Hey do you hear something?"
"Probably the sound of you being an idiot."
"Yeah, you're probably right…dick."
Lelouch kept moving until he saw a warehouse. In it he sees guards, a cargo truck, and a desk in the warehouse. If what he saw was right then the cargo in the truck is what he's after but he needs the key. He sees the patrol near the warehouse moving away and Lelouch used the opportunity to his advantage. He slipped through the back but saw a soldier. Lelouch used his Geass to make him ignore him. When he got in he saw a high military official looking at the truck while he's on the phone.
"Earl Asplund, it's here. We're about to send it out in a few minutes." While talking Lelouch activated his Geass and got closer and closer. "Don't worry I have the key to it with me."
"You just saved me two minutes of work." Lelouch thought as he got closer. He then stood up.
"Excuse me?" The military official turned around but before he can say something Lelouch ordered him. "Give me the key to the cargo along with the truck. Tell the others that the cargo is being moved ahead schedule. Do everything in your power to let me leave with the cargo. Also forget that I was ever here after I leave."
"Yes sir." The official gave him the keys and called the others while Lelouch got in the truck. "The code is 01NHXIG29." He drove out while whistling.
"Too easy."
Lelouch just arrived at a different warehouse and turned to the truck off. He closely examined it before removing the tracking beacons. He opened the cargo and looked at it with a smile. It was a Knightmare, it looked like the Lancelot but it was blue and had other different features specifically in the upper body and was even equipped with its' MVSs. It was the Lancelot Club.
"Now then let's see what I can do about your tracking system before giving you your makeover." Lelouch said as he brought out some tools.
Lelouch placed the Lancelot Club in his hideout where the empty space was. Lelouch got out of the cockpit and saw a very impatient CC.
"Where were you?"
"I told you, I had to pick up something." Lelouch said as he took off his hood.
"How come you never told me about this place?"
"It never came up and also just because we're partners doesn't mean I can't keep a few minor secrets."
"So was the Knightmare the reason why you left?" Lelouch shook his head and brought out the Unicorn Memory and pressed on it.
"UNICORN!"
"So you found another one?"
"Yes three down and only twenty three more to go." Lelouch said putting the Unicorn Memory away.
"Any idea where the rest may be?"
"Only one, when I used my Geass on Kallen she told me her brother stole one from Britannia. Unfortunately he hid it and died without giving a hint at its location."
"Look at it this way; at least you have some." Lelouch nodded and went upstairs. Lelouch went into Nunnally's room to see her asleep. He kissed her forehead before leaving to his own room and to see CC in his bed. Sighing out of frustration he decided to sleep on the floor, again.
The next day at Camelot Base, Lloyd screamed when he found out that his second child, the Lancelot Club, was stolen last night. They couldn't track it from the truck or from the Club itself since both tracking beacons were destroyed. Lloyd hoped that at least it was stolen by Eternal so he would modify making it more powerful than any Knightmare. Lloyd sighed and resumed his repairs on the Lancelot.
At class everyone was talking about the news. They were saying how Eternal was fighting the Unicorn Dopant and how he defeated it. Lelouch smiled inwardly knowing that his Eternal identity is getting some renown. Just then the teacher appeared and started speaking.
"Alright class, we have a new student today, joining us at Ashford Academy." The teacher started. "Please treat him with the same respect as you do yourselves. You may come in now."
When he entered Lelouch's eyes widened as he saw Suzaku in school uniform walking in and facing the class.
"Hello my name is Suzaku Kururugi and I look forward to learning with you."
AN: There's my latest chapter! I hope you all enjoyed it. I decided to give Lelouch a few gadgets seeing how most Riders use their own. And I thought stealing the Club would be like "F##k you, Britannia!" also I thought "Why not?"
Stardrago: I am planning for some of the OVA characters to have their own GaiaMemories but not until later.
MM Browsing: Britannia will make certain attempts but CC will not sell Lelouch out. Also some MEmories are in Japan, a few in the China, a couple in the EU, but none in Britannia itself.
Zero: You'll see soon.
Kamen Rider ooo: Yes.
