It's the seventh day of the week, and I'm standing to a giant obstacle course on the island.

"Now, Sylvia, this is going to test what you've learn the entire week," Tusk instructed.

This day is my ultimate test.

"When I blow the whistle, complete your test," he said. "Ready, set..."

As soon as he blows the whistle, I started running. The first part is stealth, so I hide when I saw Sayoko is looking for me. Good thing I got a can to throw to the other side to distract her. I went past her and I take cover by the bush to see Jeremiah. I waited for him to approach near the bush, so I can grab him and knock him down.

For the second part of the course, I'm taking a written test to understand what I've studied so far. I'm sure I got a perfect score.

The third part is balance, so I calmly put my arms sideways and pass the log without looking down.

Next, it's the combat test, and I wield my sword. Lelouch starts his match with me. We exchange blows for about five minutes before I managed to land a scratch to let him go of his sword. Also, I am holding a gun and I start shooting at images of DRAGONs. It is lucky I didn't shoot at the image of my sister.

The final test is about leadership and operating the mecha. Inside the Shinkiro, I gave commands to Akiho and Maki to take down the large DRAGONs while the rest of my squad shoots down the rest of the pink DRAGONs.

My test is complete.

"Not bad, Sylvia. Not bad," Lelouch is grading my performance. "For the first part, you got an A-. The second part... B+. Your balance is A+. Your combat is A-; your leadership is B+, and your operation of my Knightmare is about B+."

"Does that mean I pass the test?" I asked.

"Yes, you did," he smiled.

With those words, I run up to him for a hug.

"Lelouch, thank you," I said sadly. In fact, I was starting to cry with tears coming out of my eyes.

"What are you thanking me for?" he asked with wonder as he hugged me back.

"For everything. You... you're the only family I had left," I replied. Mother and Father are just going to sit this one out, and I betrayed my sister and brother, respectively.

"Don't worry, Sylvia," Lelouch starts wiping the tears off my eyes. "Once you helped Ange enough as Zero, I'm sure she'll forgive you. This is about regaining her trust."

As we let go of the hug, I was in his headquarters which is an aircraft carrier. In fact, he is holding a party to welcome me to his rebellion.

"Now, introducing the new member of my rebellion: Sylvia Ikaruga Misurugi!" he introduced me.

His team all cheered for my welcome and I smiled at this.

I just hope I could help Ange as Zero long enough to regain her trust and forgive me for my betrayal.
