Lelouch's POV

Looks like my attempt to have an alliance with Jill is a success. I got to know the crew, and they get to know my crew. Even Hilda; speaking of her, I manage to keep little Hilda from the other one by having her under the care of my Geassed crew which is Ange's former classmates. It's best for her not to find out that her mother volunteered to cast her own Norma daughter away on my command just so to give her a little motivation to keep on fighting and never look back on the past. Also, I won't tell Ange that I saved her parents from their deaths.

At least not yet. Until the war, I'll reveal it all.

Now that everything is in order, it's time I make my move. I went to my room and sit on my desk to order someone to do something for me.

"Momoka," I speak to the ninja maid by the radio as I gave her an errand.

"Yes, Lelouch?" she said.

"I want you to send these invitations around the country. Those invitations contain information that those Mana using bastards are so going to be surprised of."

"Oh, okay."

"Be sure to not get seen."

"Okay, I'll remember that."

As I put my radio down, I thought about my little mission for her. What Jill doesn't know is that I'm making my own recruitment, and that is Mana users, but only those who would fight for the Norma like Momoka. Speaking of her, how loyalty she has on Ange despite she's a Norma. I wonder if there are any other people like her who are willing to fight for the Norma. There's also Misty. Too bad Ange's former classmates don't count since they were under my Geass.

I hope my recruitment is quite a success.

As I thought about Jill, she is like me. Commanders capable of making harsh decisions when necessary. Good thing I'm prepared in case she goes crazy or something. That's why I'm secretly recruiting some Mana users that are willing to fight for the Norma and stand against their own to expand my own army.

Now I wait for Momoka to see how many Mana users will agree on my invitation.

Author's Note: Short, I know. What do you think of Lelouch making a recruitment of good Mana users to serve him just in case Jill...? If you watch Cross Ange episode 18, you'd know the reason.

Also, with Ange and Sylvia in the DRAGONs world, there will be chapters of him that took place in the end of episodes 14 - 16.
