Chapter 3: First Day Back to School, Ya!

Ashford Academy

In the earlier morning, barely five clocks and some sun had entered through the curtains into a room. We see the room was nicely set up and part of a housing complex that is connected to the Ashford Academy school grounds. The school was large and extravagant, having even its chapel, and run primary by the student body president (oftentimes by the vice student president), which she would be shown later.

We see on the bed, Kiryu who blinked his eyes a few times and saw it was 4:36 AM. He sighed and knows that yesterday wasn't a dream. He really has come to a new world and everything that happened yesterday was real. He wasn't complaining, or he wasn't, and saw this as a good thing a bit. He didn't have much back home nor many people that care about him if he was gone. A bit sad but he try to look into the positive and saw this new world might be one, might but a lot of work would come.

Kiryu then started to remember last night after leaving the ghetto and saw more changes in Japan, or what's called Area 11. It was very different. Lelouch was kind enough to give Kiryu and CC a room to stay in and tomorrow, he was going to talk with the school's headmaster to see if he come to school.

Kiryu was surprised and taken aback by that, Lelouch had explained that would be best to keep a low head for now. And who from the military goes to school to look for terrorists? The raven-haired exiled prince also knows the headmaster and believes he could get the brown-haired teen in school, to keep a better eye on each other. Something told him that it was wise on that and that both of them could cover for each other in future events.

Kiryu yawned a bit and figured to try to go back to sleep. He had about an hour or two before the alarm clock dose off and has to get ready for school. It seems no one can't escape the school and education to come. It's going to be a bit hard for our young knight.

Then all of a sudden, the teen felt hands around him, not his own, and caused his eye to widen as he felt something being pressed against him. He then became shocked as he raises up to see CC next to him, still in her clothes but they are pretty loose and had removed the heeled boots. Her clothes were loose and open enough to see her forms, such as her cleavage and bare hips, making the teen feel very embarrassed by this.

Kiryu was shocked, which was a normal reaction if any beauty sleeps next to him but also curious as to why CC was in his bed, not the one across from him.

The brown-haired became more shocked when he saw the green-haired woman start to wake and stare at him, like not even bother he was looking at her or sharing a bed.

"Is my presence so awful for you to react like this?" CC teased.

"Uhhh, no! I...I think you're beautiful and all. CC, why are you in my bed?" Kiryu asked, after fighting his blush and embarrassment.

"Because yours was closer and you were asleep, so I join in. We made a contract and should be familiar with each other, you know? Sometime in the afternoon, I would help you on figuring out your Geass abilities," CC informed.

"In order; okay, not sure about but to tried to fight about, and sounds good enough for me," Kiryu said, agreeing to some of those.

"Good...and you think I am beautiful huh?" CC teased with a vixen smirk forming on her face.

Kiryu blushed and was a bit lost for words, much more when CC then put him in a pretty tight position and cruddled. Her arms wrapped around his neck and her hands feel the soft hair and legs wrapped around his waist. He was very flushed but soon started to relax feeling safe and comfortable for some reason and he started to hug back.

"Problem now?" CC asked or teased.

"No, actually...I actually enjoy you being here," Kiryu admitted soon feeling tired and closed his eyes to go back to sleep, much to the amusement of the immortal witch as she pats and smooth the top of his head.

"Sleep well, Kiryu. School is going to be the less of your worries. You and Lelouch's next move comes very soon," CC whispered, knowing that the empire or some military group would use Clovis's death to their edge in the rising of power in this area.

It was only natural and the green-haired woman would have to see what the pair would do next.

Small Time Skip

A few hours later, it was about time for Kiryu to head to the main office and get signed up for Ashford Academy. His alarm clock was disabled due to a certain witch. Lelouch had asked the personal maid that watches over him and his little sister, and also a bodyguard. She was a young Japanese woman with figured that was agility and grace like a ninja while was a kindhearted person. She had short brown hair that had bangs swept to the left side and light brown eyes which showed kindness but also a hidden blade ready to strike.

Her attire was that of a maid uniform, blue and white in color. She also has black leggings on her legs with kunia knives hidden on her upper legs & hips underneath her skirt, and black dress shoes.

This was Sayoko Shinozaki, the personal maid that watches over the siblings and also a kunoichi in the making.

Sayoko was told by her master of the new guests that would be living with him and his sister for the time being. He also asked her if she could wake them up as the fellow teen has school to prepare for.

Sayoko opened the door after hearing nothing and know that the teen wasn't getting dressed.

"Good morning, Kiryu, CC," Sayoko greeted with a bow but stopped and soon became surprised at what she was seeing before her eyes.

The maid saw both Kiryu and CC cruddling against each other in the same. She was surprised by that sight and also curious about how it happened. She was also wondering if she should leave or not.

"Sayoko...I huh?" Kiryu said, after waking up and yawn escaped while becoming tense about the maid seeing this situation he was in.

"Mhmm, ahhhh. Good morning, Kiryu, Sayoko. I'm heading for the shower first, no peaking you two," CC said while teasing and had a vixen smirk on her face, leaving the pair in the room and heading to the bathroom to wash up.

Kiryu sighed deeply and rubbed his eyes, having a feeling that woman was going to be the death of him.

"Morning," Kiryu greeted with a bow, wanting to push what happened and the whole CC in his bed thing.

"Good morning, Kiryu. I trust you had...okay sleep," Sayoko said, choosing her words carefully.

"I did, nothing happened for the heads up," Kiryu quickly said.

"I know. You both were wearing clothes and nothing smells out of place," Sayoko informed.

Kiryu blinked a few times and thought it best to drop the whole morning subject for the best.

"Now then...I take it that Lelouch needs me soon?" Kiryu asked.

"Yes, Master Lelouch would show you around Ashford and meet the headmaster to sign up for school, once you are done with shower & breakfast," Sayoko replied.

"Good...," Kiryu said, taking that information in and just knowing his first day of school would be way different from one back in his old world. And has to learn a different history in total.

"Well that's just great," Kiryu thought with a groan, knowing his luck with the school would be different.

Time Skip

After checking in and getting signed up along with getting his books, we see Kiryu in his history class and studying very hard to catch up. He was lucky that the fall semester had just started a month ago and it seems that the classes have about one assignment per month. Not too bad and has a good number of classes but that is not the problem. The problem is rather something else.

Kiryu could hear some students talking behind his back and many were not good. Many were worried about him because of his Japanese or Eleven blood. Some and mostly from self-proclaim Student Self-Defense Force began to spread rumors that he was dangerous or a terrorist, trying to scare those that might consider getting closer to him. Haters are going to hate.

The brown-haired teen just ignore them and kept writing in his notebook, getting the notes down and catching up.

"Hey, Kiryu, how are you holding up?" Lelouch asked, causing some to be surprised that the so-called Ice Prince was talking with some eleven.

"Hm, doing good enough, catching up on some assignments and studying," Kiryu replied.

"That's good to hear. And welcome to Ashford Academy," Lelouch greeted, knowing that he can sure this kindness and help towards Kiryu, then maybe others would ease up a little.

It's a long shot but that won't stop the Student Self-Defense Force which they really just students trying to look cool and are basically bullies. So anything can happen.

Kiryu smirked and said, "Thanks, glad to be here."

"Exume, Mr. Stone, if it would be alright, I give Kiryu a tour of the school since he's new?" Lelouch asked the history teacher.

"Oh? I don't see why not. Sure," Mr. Stone agreed, seeing no harm in that as he didn't have a problem with the numbers. Only if you do a good job at school and get good grades, then that's good enough for him.

Lelouch nodded his head in thanks and was going to use the tour than just sightseeing. He and Kiryu would need to talk more about what they will do next. The raven-haired teen had a feeling that maybe his friends from the student council might try to be friendly with the brown-haired teen. He had a feeling that a certain girl with glasses, was a big no but maybe ease up, who knows?

After class and luck a good two-hour break, Lelouch took Kiryu on the tour around Ashford Academy which the brown-haired teen would admit has to be the biggest school he has ever been in.

"Huh, Ashford has to be the biggest school I have ever been in. I heard about academy schools being big but this top the cake," Kiryu commented.

"Well probably expect more like that, Kiryu. Still, though, we need to talk about future plans," Lelouch said as the pair enters the stairway and head up toward the roof.

"Hm, you mean like the outcome of what happened?" Kiryu guessed, knowing that killing the viceroy who just happens to be a prince would lead to some outcomes.

"Yes, I expected the military to release Clovis's death to the public soon but all they have been reporting was a gas leak in Shinjuku Ghetto," Lelouch informed.

"That's a lot of crap if I ever heard of. There was no gas, only smoke from a battle, an unwanted one that happened," Kiryu said, knowing the truth and was disguised by the coverup.

"You and I know that but in reality, the media is corrupted and under control by the military. I might have a few ideas about what's going on," Lelouch said, cupping his chin in thought.

"Hmmm, one pops to me but it's just a guess. Could a military branch try to use Clovis's death to boost their power within Japan?" Kiryu asked.

"A few, yes. But one branch could be likey choice. That is something I would look into that but moving on. I think you should start reading those files and blueprints we gain from the G-1 transport, and find a way to get some funding. I may have some side accounts but might not be enough," Lelouch explained, knowing that sooner or later, Kiryu would be targeted by students' families who are nobles and try to get him kicked out. And having founding for the future would be needed.

"The nobles huh? There's still gambling, right?" Kiryu questioned, having a few ideas on what he could and giving his Geass a first real test.

"Yes, there's one that can be a great way and no public knowledge on. The Babel Tower is one of the organized criminal casinos and anything can happen. I had rumors about that rotten place," Lelouch replied.

"If it is a criminal casino and would have to be run by a very greedy noble. Greed can be a powerful ally," Kiryu said, might have an idea of what he should do but would need more information on the said tower and who owns it.

"Indeed," Lelouch said, having a feeling that both himself and Kiryu would have to make a trip to Babel Tower when they can.

Might be his last place of gambling. Who knows?

The next move would take place very soon and news of Clovis's death would be made public but also lead to the rise of something new too. Two actually and would shake a lot of things. For better or worst? We will find out soon.
