Here's chapter five. Anyway, I don't own Code Geass or any of the characters just the OC.
5. The Princess And The Witch
In the desert, a group of Britannian forces were fighting a group of Middle Eastern Forces and they were fighting in their Knightmares called Bamides. It begins as a group of Bamides open fire upon Britannian tanks, The firing kept going on until a group of Knightmare frames called Gloucesters appeared and charged towards them, in the cockpits the Middle Eastern Forces were surprised.
"Gloucesters." One of the members said.
"They're supposed to be in Serupham." Another member said.
The commander was anger as the Gloucesters continued charging at the enemy forces.
"Shoddy oversized imitation Knightmares." Andreas Darlton commented.
"They would've been wise to surrender from the start." Gilbert G.P. Guilford added.
The Gloucesters were easily decimating the Bamides and the Middle Eastern Base that was being defended was quickly destroyed. The commander saw this and was shocked as he saw the only caped Gloucester that was standing with the flames engulfing behind it.
"That's Cornelia." The commander said surprised. "A single unit did this?"
The commander was then killed when his Bamides exploded and so did the rest. In the cockpit of the caped Gloucester, The second princess of the Holy Britannian Empire, Cornelia li Britannian nodded pleased at her work
"Another victory," Cornelia said. "Area 18 has been established."
"My Lady," Darlton contacted. "About our next course of action."
"Sorry to have you clean up after my foolish younger brother," Cornelia replied.
"Please don't apologize, my Lady," Darlton assures. "We live to serve and our place is with you."
"Humph. Do you think Area 11 needs our usual treatment?" Cornelia said with a smile
"Yes, my Lady," Darlton said.
"Good," Cornelia said then thought with resentment towards the ones who killed Clovis. "I'll drive you into the open, Zero and Soul. Clovis will be avenged."
(Ashford Academy)
Lelouch and Logan, now in their casual attire meet up with Rolo and now the three of them are having a conversation while walking to Lelouch's home.
"I see, so Suzaku Kururugi rejected your offer to join," Rolo said.
"Yes, it's definitely a shame, but it couldn't be helped," Lelouch said.
"Well it doesn't change much in the grand scheme of things, we'll just have move forward without Suzaku," Logan added.
"But does really plan to change Britannia from within?" Rolo questioned. "Honestly I don't see how he could."
"That's because he can't, Britannia won't change for him, they'll just swallow him up, he'll never survive there," Lelouch said with venom in his tone.
Logan places his hand on Lelouch's shoulder. "Lelouch, calm down," He told him.
"Sigh... Yeah sorry, it been a long day, let's check in on Nunnally and call it a night." Lelouch said, then seen walking into his residence at Ashford Academy.
"I'm back," Lelouch said walking into the room.
"Welcome home, Lelouch." Lelouch and Logan are then surprised to see the girl from the capsule in Shinjuku, who is now there with Nunnally.
"I'm so glad. I was worried." Nunnally greeted. "Oh? Logan and Rolo are you there too?"
"Uh. Yeah, we are" Logan said unsure of what's going on.
They had both been waiting for him and passed time by folding paper cranes.
"I'm assuming you three ate out tonight judging from your appearance." The girl said folding another crane.
"Thank goodness. I thought maybe you all got caught up in all the uproar caused by that man Zero. I tried calling you but you didn't answer your cellphone. I wanted to tell you Ms C.C's been waiting as well." Nunnally said.
"C.C?" Lelouch said surprised.
"Your friend goes by such an unusual name, only her initials," Nunnally said.
"Yeah," Lelouch said also unsure.
Nunnally then asks. "I was just wondering, is C.C your girlfriend?"
The three of them were surprised at that question.
"He made a promise about our future together. Right?" C.C said in a bored tone.
They were shocked again.
"A future together? You mean marriage?" Nunnally asked surprised.
Lelouch immediately replied "No! No, that isn't what she was talking about. It's like a... she's kidding around."
C.C immediately replied. "No, I'm not."
This annoyed Logan as he walked up to the table and picked up a teacup while Nunnally started talking.
"Well, you're certainly doing this sooner than most. But everyone's different, aren't they? So I suppose it isn't THAT strange. And if you feel like you're ready for..." Nunnally stopped talking when she heard glass breaking. "Oh."
"Oh, C.C Look what you've done, you're soaking wet. Come on guys, help me get her to the bathroom and into a dry change of clothes." Lelouch said in a calm voice.
"Sure thing Lelouch," Logan said playing along.
"Yeah, come on C.C let's go," Rolo said also playing along.
"Nunnally, stay here and I'll clean it up in a minute. And she was kidding before. Kidding. Just a dumb joke. That's all." Lelouch said as they all left the room.
(Lelouch's Room)
In Lelouch's room, he begins to question her as to who she really.
"Who are you?" Lelouch asks her
"She said my name. I'm C.C" C.C said brushing him off.
"That's not what I meant. Why aren't you..." Lelouch started to say but CC. cut him off.
"Supposed to be dead?" She said.
"No, Clovis said that your immortal and the fact that you're here proves that," Logan said.
"So you know that much, good that means I don't have to explain it," C.C said.
"You still need to explain, like how are you immortal?" Logan said annoyed by her laid back attitude.
"Yeah, also how you found this place and what you're doing here?" Rolo asked her.
"And why did you give me this power?" Lelouch questioned as well.
"So, you don't like the power that I gave you?" C.C said.
"As I thought, it was you," Lelouch said.
C.C then laid down on Lelouch's bed. "Dissatisfied?"
"On the contrary, I'm grateful. It allows me to speed up my schedule tremendously, which is a huge help." Lelouch said with a smirk.
"Your schedule?" C.C said.
"Yes. My schedule for obliterating Britania. We would've had to wait much longer before we could've made the initial move." Lelouch told her
"You believe you can destroy it simply by using that power?" C.C asked them.
"No not at all, the truth is we intended to do it without this power. But now that he has it, things can go easier than we planned." Logan said and Lelouch nodded.
C.C then looks up at the ceiling and says to herself. "I just knew that he'd turn out to be a fascinating guy."
"But what'll you do now? I'm sure the military is after you." Lelouch asked.
"Not the entire military, only a small Faction of it." C.C "So it shouldn't be difficult to find a hiding place. I can make do here." C.C started undressing.
"What? You expect to stay here?" Lelouch said surprised.
"A gentleman would sleep on the floor," C.C said covering herself with the bedsheet.
"Don't joke around," Lelouch tells her.
"My being caught would cause trouble for you too," C.C said.
"It's dangerous to stay together," Lelouch said.
"If I wander the streets, they'll find me," C.C said.
"This isn't about you. It's my situation." Lelouch said.
"Not to mention you still haven't answered any of our questions." Logan reminded her.
"I hate stubbornness," C.C said turning away from them.
"You sure take things casually, don't you? How did you manage to survive before this?" Logan asked.
"What did you do before now?" Rolo asked.
"And what's the deal with that so-called contract you spoke of..." Lelouch tried to ask but C.C cut him off.
"Good night, Lelouch." C.C abruptly says to Lelouch and ends the conversation.
"Sigh.." Lelouch then turns to Logan and Rolo. "You two can go, I'll deal with this," Lelouch tells them.
"Fine, but before we go," Logan then looks at C.C. "C.C That power you gave Lelouch, can you give it to other people as well?" Logan asked her.
"Yes, but it won't have the same ability as his," C.C tells him.
"Then what ability would they have?" Rolo asked her.
"Don't know, it's different with each person," C.C said.
"Oh sure, you can answer that." After saying that Logan and Rolo start to leave.
(A.S.E.E.C.s Knightmare Hanger)
Cecile and Lloyd Asplund are shown with Lancelot, discussing how the appearance of Zero has caused an uproar in other terrorist groups.
"Fukushima, Kouchi, Hiroshima," Cecile said. "This has been the seventh occurrence since those men named Zero and Soul raised his head.
"It seems the other groups are following their lead and putting up a valiant fight." Lloyd.
"And now, suspicions about that "Orange" thing have cost Margrave Jeremiah his command," Cecile said.
"Maybe he wasn't good enough. Thanks to him, connections between the police and the administration are screwed up. It's made a fine mess for us as well." Lloyd said.
(Base Of The Japan Liberation Front)
A brief dialogue is also held in the JLF headquarters as Kusakabe pleads with Todoh to help Zero and Soul, which Todoh refuses to do.
"Help them Todoh! Zero and Soul has thrown the Britannians into chaos. Now is the time for us in the Japan Liberation Front to make our stand!" Kusakabe said.
"Calm down. The information of Kyoto giving the Guren Mk-II to them hasn't been confirmed." Todoh told him. "If we pay too much attention to those two we may trip ourselves up."
(The Next Morning)
The following morning, Lelouch and C.C are talking in his room
"So, what did "Orange" turn out to be anyway?" C.C asked him.
Lelouch looks away from his laptop to talk to her. "You know for someone who isn't willing to answer any questions, you certainly do ask a lot of them," Lelouch said.
"If you don't want to answer my questions, you don't have to. Just as I don't." C.C said back.
"Humph." Lelouch then looks back at his laptop before answering. "There is no Orange. It's something I made up. But, the more they claim to be comrades of like-mind, the easier it is to divide them with the thorns of suspicion.
C.C is then seen looking at magazines and news articles talking about Zero and Soul.
"Everyone on earth is looking for you two. Because of you, the world is going through an upheaval. So, is this it? Is this what you wanted to see?"
"No. This uproar's simply a means to an end. The world is destined to descend into greater chaos." Lelouch tells her.
(Tokyo Settlement)
At the government bureau, a Britannian officer was informing Suzaku of the verdict.
"Case No.107 Private Suzaku Kururugi, Area 11 Military Forces." The officer spoke. "In the murder of His Highness Prince Clovis you are no longer a suspect and are hereby set free due to lack of evidence."
Suzaku was in his casual clothes and walking out the building with his bag. Suzaku was surprised with his verdict.
"What happened?" Suzaku spoke. "I'm free."
"Out of the way, please." A girl's voice called out. "Look out below!"
Then suddenly a pink-haired girl drops out of the sky and right into Suzaku's arms.
"Uh, are you all right?" Suzaku asked.
"I'm sorry. I wasn't aware you were down here until I had leapt." The girl said.
"Well, don't worry," Suzaku said. "I wasn't expecting a girl to come falling out of the sky and into my arms, either."
"Oh, my..." The girl said looking up the where she humped from.
"Huh? Is there something wrong?" Suzaku asked her.
"Yes! There is something wrong." The girl said with a smile which confused Suzaku.
"The truth is bad guys are chasing me." The girl said. "So considering the circumstances could you help me, please?"
Suzaku and the girl go for a stroll.
(Britannian Monitoring Room)
Meanwhile, a secret plot amongst the purebloods is being planned as they are watching Jeremiah through a monitor.
"We must get rid of this "Orange" character before Princess Cornelia assumes her new post," Kewell said.
"Now the loyalty of us Pure Bloods is being called into question." A Pure Bloods member said.
"Are the reports we've been hearing true? Lord Jeremiah was bribed?" A security guard said.
"Do you know what this "Orange" means?" A different Pure Bloods member asked.
"In any case, Lord Jeremiah is definitely hiding something." Another Pure Bloods member said.
"Saying he can't recall anything, Bartley offered the same excuse," Kewell said.
Meanwhile, Villeta in her Knightmare was watching Jeremiah on her monitor.
"Lord Jeremiah's memory is muddled." Villeta thought. "Exactly like those of the men in Shinjuku whose Sutherlands were stolen. And..."
(Back With Suzaku)
Suzaku and the girl, are still together and are now walking at a leisurely pace
"We haven't introduced ourselves yet, have we? My name is... Euphie." The girl introduced herself.
"Euphie?" Suzaku said then tried to introduce himself. "My name's—"
"Don't tell me." Euphie stopped him. "'Cause I already know it. You're a celebrity, son of Prime Minister Genbu Kururugi, Private Suzaku Kururugi."
"Humph. You lied before. There's no one chasing you at all, right?" Suzaku said, he then looked over to see Euphie meowing to a stray cat.
"Meow meow. Aww, does the kitty's paw hurt?" Euphie said to the cat. "Oh, meow meow meow!"
Euphie slowly brought her finger to the cat and the cat sniffed it before rubbing up against Euphie's finger and Euphie patted the cat. Suzaku walking up to Euphie and smiled as Euphie picked up the cat. Suzaku attempted to pet the cat but the cat then bit him.
"Oh, my..." Euphie said.
"Ow..." Suzaku said.
At the same moment, Lloyd and Cecile arrive in order to look for Suzaku to give Suzaku a ride.
"We're running late," Lloyd said. "I hope he's still waiting for us."
"Considering the charge, did they really release him?" Cecile asked.
"Yes. They had no evidence." Lloyd says. "I'm sure they put him through the third degree because of that Zero and Soul incident, uh-huh?"
Without Suzaku knowing, they see him walking with Euphie.
"What? Why is he..." Lloyd.
Euphie then puts a bandage around the cat's leg in the hope that it will help him heal.
"Do you have trouble with cats?" Euphie asks Suzaku.
"I like them fine. However..." Suzaku tries petting the cat again and it hisses at him. Suzaku moves his hand back. "The attraction isn't mutual."
"I think unrequited love is a mark of a kind person," Euphie said.
The cat then gets up and runs away from them.
"The kitty ran away," Euphie said disappointed.
"Euphie, why did you tell me that lie when we met?" Suzaku asked her.
"Do you ask because you're concerned about me?" Euphie asks back.
"Huh? Um... of course." Suzaku said.
"Good! Then you can accompany me some more." Euphie said with a smile.
Euphie then gets up pulled Suzaku's arm. Suzaku and Euphie spend the remainder of the day together visiting stores and being stalked by Lloyd.
"You know, being here is just like being in Britania. I feel right at home." Euphie commented.
"Are you from the homeland?" Suzaku asked.
"Uh-huh. I was a student there up until last week." Euphie answered.
"Last week? So what're you doing now? By student do you mean high school? You can go sightsee anytime, can't you?" Suzaku questioned.
"Heh-heh. You ask a lot of questions." Euphie tells him.
"Ah, sorry," Suzaku said.
"Oh! No, I don't mean it like that. You see... today is the last day of my vacation. I wanted to see as much of Area 11 as I could because I'd like to know what kinda place it is." Euphie said.
"Well, you didn't need me for that," Suzaku said.
"No, I'm glad I could see it with you," Euphie said.
"Is that right?" Suzaku asked.
"Suzaku, would you mind taking me to one more place, please?" Euphie asked.
"Your wish is my command, my Lady," Suzaku said with a bow. "Where to?"
"Take me to Shinjuku." Euphie said.
Suzaku was surprised by that request.
"Suzaku Kururugi, please escort me there," Euphie said seriously.
(Ashford Academy)
That same day, Lelouch and Logan were sitting on a bench, while Lelouch was looking over the internet with his laptop. He was suffering the net and reading up about Suzaku.
"Find anything," Logan asked.
"Nothing we didn't already know," Lelouch said.
Kallen Stadtfeld then approaches them
"Hey, Logan?" Kallen said.
Lelouch and Logan look up and see Kallen.
"Oh, hey there Kallen." Logan greeted her.
"Do you have a minute?" Kallen asks.
Logan stands up and answers. "Yeah sure. What is it?"
"About that phone call the other day, you know, when you and I were in the bathroom." Kallen she with a blush.
"I remember, what about it?" Logan asked her.
"Can you find out what the caller ID was? I want to contact that person again." Kallen asked.
Well actually I can't, it was a school phone, so I won't be able to... WAH!?"
Lelouch and Logan then notice behind Kallen's back, C.C, dressed in Lelouch's clothes, is twirling around and seems to be searching for something.
"I see. Make sense. I should have known." Kallen said not noticing her.
Logan then quickly runs past Kallen and grabs C.C.
Kallen wondering why he did that tries to look behind her "What? Is there something wrong...Woa?" Before Kallen can turn around and see C.C, Lelouch grabs her face with both hands and keeps her looking straight at him.
Unfortunately, Shirley sees Lelouch holding Kallen and to her, it looks like they are kissing. "Huh? No way." Shirley said.
"Excuse me. What are you doing?" Kallen is confused because it really looks like Lelouch is about to kiss her.
"Ah... what indeed." he simply lets her go.
Shortly thereafter, Lelouch confronts C.C. on the roof of the school. While Logan and Rolo are already there.
"Are you insane? You can't go walking around." Lelouch told her.
"That was way too close, Kallen almost saw you." Logan also told her.
"Don't act strict with me," C.C said walking past them. "I never leave the school ground so it's fine."
"It's not. You can't do as you like here, you don't belong." Lelouch said.
"I don't belong anywhere." As she turns and looks over the balcony an unnamed female student is making marks on the wall while under the influence of Geass. "Hmm? What's with her?"
Lelouch looks over to see "Oh, is she doing again today?"
"Again?" C.C asked.
"She is going to be marking the wall like that every day because I used my Geass on her to make her do it," Lelouch told her.
"Geass?" C.C said.
The name of the power I have. That's what I heard when we first made contact.
"You testing how long it lasts?" C.C said.
"I need to know the specs of my weapon, don't I?" Lelouch said.
"That's why I was here, I came to check if she would be here. After all, she always marks the wall at the same time each day." Rolo informed her.
"That's right, now behave or I'll try it on you," Lelouch warned her.
"Would it work on me?" C.C asked looking at the sky, surprising the others. "Oh relax, you and I are in this together, I won't do anything to endanger us or our unique partnership."
"About that, we want you to do something," Logan said.
"Oh, and what would that be?" C.C asked.
"You gave Lelouch a Geass, we want you to give us Geass as well," Logan said surprising C.C.
"You sure about that? I told you before that you won't get the same power." C.C told them.
"We know that but regardless, if it can help us in any way then it's better to have one," Rolo said.
C.C looked at them and then smirked. "Very well then, if that's what you want."
(In The Sky)
A plane was carrying general Bartley who was being sent back to the homeland as a prisoner with two-foot soldiers accompanying him,
"To think I'd be returning to the homeland like this. I wish I'd never gotten involved with that girl." Bartley thought.
(Shinjuku Ghetto)
Suzaku and Euphie arrive at the Shinjuku Ghetto that evening and they were at a memorial area for all the people that were killed. It was a depressing sight for both of them.
"The Shinjuku Ghetto... ruined again. The residents were starting to return too." Suzaku said looking at the graves.
They then noticed that two Britannian students were taking pictures of the battleground.
"Man, they didn't use RG on the Elevens. I figured they wouldn't." One of them said.
"Hey, look! Those are marks of Hummer rounds. Get a clear shot of it." The other one said.
"Say cheese! Got it. Okay, me next."
Meanwhile elsewhere, Jeremiah in his Knightmare heading towards his destination.
"This is accurate?" Jeremiah asked talking to someone on transmission. "This information about Zero and Soul?"
"Yes, sir." A soldier said on transmission. "Lord Kewell contacted me."
"Right. Set up a cordon around Shinjuku Ghetto Sector 4 at once." Jeremiah ordered.
(Monitor Room)
"Cordon Sector 4. Roger." The soldier then cut off the transmission. "Okay, ball's in your court now, Lord Kewell. Ugh!"
The blade of a sword appeared between them and they were surprised to see Villetta holding it. "I wanted to be put through to Lord Jeremiah. But it appears that you're too busy now." Villeta said.
(Shinjuku Ghetto)
It shifts yet again as Tamaki with Minami and Yoshida rush into the same area that Suzaku and Euphie are at. He knocks away their camera and begins to yell at the Britannian students.
"Get out of here, you damn Britanian bastards!" Tamaki angrily demanded.
Euphie and Suzaku heard them and Suzaku ran off to interfere. "Stay here." He tells Euphie.
"How dare a lowly Eleven speak like..." The Britannian student tries to say.
"Don't call me Eleven! I'm Japanese." Tamaki yelled.
"Wrong. You seem to forget you people lost. You're nothing but a beaten dog!" The other student said with fear in his voice.
"Grrr... you racist pig." Tamaki prepared to hit him.
A confrontation seems inevitable until Suzaku runs up and tries to calm everyone down.
"Stop," Suzaku said running between them. "Please no violence!"
"Stay out of this!" Tamaki knocks off Suzaku's sunglasses and everyone recognises him.
"You're that..." Yoshida said.
"Are you Suzaku Kururugi?" Minami asked.
"The guy who killed Clovis?" One of the students said.
"No, idiot... it was Zero and Soul who killed him." The other one said.
Tamaki was angry at seeing Suzaku. "This guy is nothing more than a slave," Tamaki commented. "Big deal. You're an honorary Britanian. Nobody cares." Tamaki continued glaring at Suzaku. "You sold your pride, your people, yourself, yet you call yourself Japanese?"
"No! You're wrong!" Suzaku replied.
"I am not wrong!" Tamaki interrupted. "You stinking Britanian lapdog Aaah..."
Tamaki charged at Suzaku wanting to punch him but Suzaku easily countered by grabbing Tamaki's arm and flipped him over. Tamaki hit the ground hard as the others were surprised and Euphie ran over and saw what was happening.
"Stop, please!" Suzaku pleaded, "I'll warn you I've been trained for military combat. Don't make me fight against my own people."
"Like hell your own people!" Tamaki said as he got up.
"Come on. Just let it go." Yoshida said.
Tamaki was seeing Minami and Yoshida walking away and decided to leave too and then looked back at Suzaku with hatred.
"Oof, lousy traitor." He said before leaving.
"Suzaku! Oh, my... Are you okay?" Euphie asked concerned for him.
"Yeah, I'm alright," Suzaku answered.
"Well, I'm not O.K." The student complained as he picked up his camera. "Just look at my prime-G and my elex-4."
"Why did you wait?" The other student asked glaring at Suzaku. "Damn it, some honorary citizen you are."
"Why'd you let 'em go? You should have killed 'em. What're a few dead elevens to a guy like you!" The student continued complaining. "Who do you think's taking care of you all these years anyway?"
Euphie finally steps in and defends Suzaku by slapping the complainer right in the face. "I'll not allow you to insult this man any longer you oaf."
(Ashford Academy)
At that same time, Lelouch and C.C. are still in his room as Lelouch explains the intricacies of his power.
"To use my Geass, I need to have direct eye contact with the subject. Transparent objects like eyeglasses present no problem. The effective range is approximately 270 meters. And a subject appears to have no memory of events before, during, or after the power is used. I think this is due to damage caused by the Geass interfering with the brain of the subject. Also if the signal's optical I can reflect it."
"In the short time you had it, you've learned a lot," C.C said.
"My opponent is an Empire that controls more than 1/3 of the entire world. There's no such thing as being too careful." Lelouch said.
At that moment Logan and Rolo walk into the room.
"Well have you two figured out how your Geass works?" Lelouch asks them.
"Yes, we finished testing them," Rolo said as a Geass appears in his left eye. "My Geass lets me freeze a person or more specifically it can freeze a person time, as long as they're in a close enough range. But only for a short amount of time, the maximum is 10 seconds and after it's been used it needs a cool down time equally to how long I used it." Rolo explained his Geass.
"I see, that can be a power Geass if used just right," Lelouch said. "And what does your Geass do?"
Logan activates his Geass. "My Geass lets me see if someone is lying."
Lelouch looked surprised at hearing that. "What?"
"When I use my Geass I can see some kind of aura around a person and when they tell the truth the aura is calm, but when they lie the aura flares up" Logan explained.
Lelouch smiled. "I see that great, the power to see through truth and lies is an excellent ability that will make things easier," Lelouch said.
"Now that we all have Geass we'll have a much greater chance at crushing Britannia."
"I'd understand if you were Elevens, but your Britannians, aren't you? This opponent may be too large and strong to fight with only Geass for a weapon." C.C told them.
There is then a moment where Suzaku, Lelouch and Logan are shown talking about the problems of the Britannian Empire.
"Is it good to be strong?" Lelouch asked.
"Is it bad to be weak?" Suzaku asked. "Back then when I was ten, the world seemed like such a terribly sad place. A world without any hope at all."
"Back then the world was a world filled with despair, and the people were filled with nothing but pain and sorrow," Logan said.
"Starvation," Lelouch said.
"Disease," Suzaku said.
"Rot," Logan said.
"Filth, decay," Lelouch said.
"Racism," Suzaku said.
"Emptiness, hardships," Logan said.
"Constant war and terrorism," Lelouch said.
"Living in a never-ending cycle of hate," Suzaku said.
"Trapped in an endless loop of eternal bloodshed," Logan said.
"Rats running in a wheel," Lelouch said.
"The cycle must be broken. Somebody has to do it." Suzaku said.
"And if no one does the cycle will never end," Logan said.
"How idealistic," C.C said.
"Of course, it's doubtful if the one who does it will make all the bad things go away," Suzaku said.
"I'm not that arrogant, and so..." Lelouch said.
"The only option is we do it ourselves," Logan said.
"No one should lose more of the people they love. At least, a world without war." Suzaku said.
"And to have this utopia you'd...?" C.C asked them.
"How would you do it?" Euphie asked.
"Do you have a solution?" Rolo asked.
"It's simple. When somebody wins, the fighting will end." Lelouch said picking up the Black King Chess piece.
"Somebody?" C.C said.
"I don't know how you would do it. But if I stop trying, then my father's death will have been in vain." Suzaku said.
"The Prime Minister's death?" Euphie asked.
"My own father died because he had to sacrifice his life in that war," Suzaku said.
They suddenly hear an explosion and they looked and saw it was coming from the old stadium.
(Shinjuku Old Stadium)
Within the old stadium, it was five Sutherlands piloted by Kewell and three other members of the Pure-Bloods holding jousting lances against one Sutherland piloted by Jeremiah it is discovered that the message Jeremiah received earlier was actually just the setup for a trap.
"Jeremiah. You are going to pay for letting Prince Clovis' murderer go free." Kewell declared.
"Kewell! You dirty coward." Jeremiah responded angrily. "That sighting of Zero and Soul was a lie, wasn't it?"
"We have to wipe away our disgrace before Princess Cornelia takes up her post here. This is how we keep our officials honest." Kewell said as they began to fight.
Back with Suzaku and Euphie, Lloyd and Cecile show up with the Lancelot.
"Suzaku!" Cecile called out.
"Miss Cecile," Suzaku responded as he approached them with Euphie following him.
"It's dangerous here, get in," Cecile tells him.
"The Pure Bloods are having a silly squabble," Lloyd said. "Let's get out of here. Oh, and by the way, what a shame about your acquittal. Because now you'll have to work for me again."
"Wait, please!" Suzaku said. "Isn't this an opportunity to gather battle data for the Lancelot?"
Cecile was surprised and Lloyd grinned happily to hear what Suzaku had just said.
Suzaku decides to get involved with the conflict and try to stop it.
"Suzaku..." Euphie said.
"I'm sorry, Euphie. We have to say goodbye here." Suzaku smiled and nodded. "I need to do this. I think I can stop them with the Lancelot. I have to try. I... I must!"
Back in the stadium, Jeremiah is getting beaten pretty badly.
"Damn, it's four against one." Jeremiah cursed. "Cowards!"
Jeremiah tried using his stun tonfas but Kewell stopped it with his jousting lance.
"Don't worry Jeremiah," Kewell said. "We'll say you died in battle. Your family's name won't be disgraced."
Jeremiah's Knightmare was struck from behind.
"You're serious then?" Jeremiah said angrily. "You actually intend to kill me?"
Jeremiah countered using one of his other stun tonfas.
"KEWELL!" Jeremiah roared loudly.
"Silence, Orange!" Kewell responded. "We serve the Imperial family. Why else would we be here?"
The four Sutherlands charged towards Jeremiah's with their jousting lances.
"All Hail Britannia!" Kewell and his cohorts said loudly.
A slash harken suddenly appeared stopping the four Sutherlands attack. They were surprised and looked as the slash harken retracted and it belonged to the Lancelot.
"Stop it!" Suzaku spoke loudly, "You're all Britannian soldiers!"
Jeremiah was surprised by who saved him.
"That's him, it's that Honorary Britannian," Jeremiah said. "The advanced weapon—Lancelot."
Kewell was not pleased with this interference.
"What business of the Special Corps want here?" Kewell said upset. "Interlopers will die."
"No!" Suzaku said as the Lancelot drew its two Master Vibration Swords from their sheathes. "I can't stand by and ignore this senseless battle."
Kewell was surprised. "Oh my God. They've perfected the MVS's." Kewell kept his resolve. "Too late, I won't back down."
Kewell and his cohorts shot their Slash-Harkens at the Lancelot and the Lancelot dodge their slash harken and cut the slash harkens.
"We're on the same side!" Suzaku said.
"Suzaku Kururugi... is saving me?" Jeremiah said with surprise.
Four of the Sutherlands went on the attack against the Lancelot, but the Lancelot was blocking, dodging and countering all their attacks.
"We can at least kill Orange." Kewell declared as he went on the attack against Jeremiah.
Kewell charged with his jousting lance and Jeremiah was able to block it with his stun tonfas and another Sutherland appeared pushing Kewell and protecting Jeremiah.
"Lord Jeremiah!" Villeta called out.
Jeremiah knew that voice. "Viletta! Thanks."
Kewell was pushed back and Villeta's Sutherland and Suzaku's Lancelot stood in front of Jeremiah's Sutherland.
"Still wanna fight?" Suzaku asked.
"Men, stand down," Kewell ordered.
"You... you understand then?" Suzaku asked.
"I'm using a chaos-mine," Kewell said.
"No, stop it now!" Euphie said as she ran up to the three Knightmares.
Suzaku was shocked to see Euphie and Jeremiah saw Euphie and was shocked. "What?"
Kewell throws a chaos mine in the air and it activates firing a wave of deadly shrapnel over the area the three Knightmares were. Fortunately, Suzaku's Lancelot has a blaze luminous shield that he uses to protect himself and Euphie. After he saves her, she steps into the middle of the fray.
"That Honorary Britannian. He risked his life for..." Villeta said surprised.
"Everyone, lower your weapons at once. In my name I command you." Euphie ordered.
"It... can't be." Kewell realizing who Euphie is.
"I am Euphemia li Britannia of the Empire. And the third princess of the royal family." Euphie declared strongly.
"Ah! Euphie." Suzaku said stunned.
"I'm assuming command here." Euphie declared, "Now fall back."
"It is her, it's the princess," Jeremiah said also surprised.
Lloyd and Cecile were also watching.
"Did you know it was her, Lloyd?" Cecile asked.
"Uh-huh, but she's been a student up until now and hasn't made her public debut yet," Lloyd said with a smile.
"We, we're truly...We're truly sorry, Your Highness!" Kewell said as he and the other Pure Bloods bowed to her.
Suzaku comes out of the Lancelot and also bows to her. "My Lady! I had no idea who you were. Please forgive me, Princess."
Euphie then had a downcast expression "Suzaku, you and I bear a similar deep pain. You have lost your father as I have lost my brother." Euphie then looked at Suzaku with determination, "Will you let me help you in your quest to ensure that no one ever again has to suffer the loss of a loved one on the battlefield.
"Suzaku lowered his head. "Yes, I'm unworthy of your kindness."
(Area 11 Government Bureau)
There were two file lines of soldiers standing in attention. Euphie having changed into her formal dress was walking between the two lines and stopped meeting her older sister Cornelia.
"I heard what you did, Euphemia," Cornelia said. "You shouldn't be so reckless."
"I know, Sister," Euphie responded. "Forgive me. But..."
Cornelia stopped her and said. "You will address me as Viceroy here, Sub-Viceroy Euphemia. Because we're sisters we need to follow a stricter protocol."
"Yes, I understand," Euphie said.
Cornelia then turned to a staff officer of the bureau. "Humph. Now then, give me your report."
"Yes, my Lady." The staff officer said with respect. "The first order of business is a welcome party we've arranged for your Highness and..."
The staff officer stooped himself when Cornelia pointed a gun at him.
"Sloppy, senile, corrupt," Cornelia said. "Where are Zero and Soul? I want the enemy of the Empire caught! Get Zero and Soul!"
(Ashford Academy)
The next day Suzaku in front of Lelouch's class, at Ashford Academy, announcing that he will be joining them as a student.
"I'll be joining the student body here at Ashford Academy beginning today. My name is Suzaku Kururugi. It's a pleasure to meet you." Suzaku introduced.
To Be Continued
And that's the chapter, and as you can see I give Logan and Rolo a Geass. I decided to give them Geass from the beginning. I gave Rolo the same Geass as canon because I think it fits him but I changed the after effects, instead of stopping his heart every time it's used it now has a time limit and cooldown time, so it won't kill him and he can't keep spamming it.
As for Logans Geass, I gave the kind of Geass that I thought would be useful because let's face a lie detecter would be really useful in Code Geass and their Geass will really help them out later.
So see you next time, hope you enjoyed, and have an awesome day.
