AN: Now before we begin, I got Questions to answer.
Q-1: So is Guilford going to be like Ein? and if Naze and Teiwaz are there, then are Lafter and the others in this story as well?
If you mean Guilford is going to say stuff that comes close to "CRANK-NII!" Or "Kudelia Aina Burnstein!"? Probably. Being literary his own Gundam? Yes. As for everyone else? I'll try. I'll find a way. You'll see.
Q-2: The Samurai Jack thing you did with Suzaku was Genius! A few minutes ago i was just thinking of that same thing but with Lelouch starting the Zero Requiem
Now that I think about it, it actually is making more sense to me. I never knew just how this would be applied at all.
Alright let's get going…...
Code Geass: Black-Blooded Orphans
Stage 10: Kyoto and Teiwaz
Viceroy's Palace
There was a conference going on concerning the aftermath of the failed operation at Narita and Zero. Cornelia was at the head of the table while Euphemia was on the right side of the table.
"It would seem that the operation was a failure, but as a consolation, some of the JLF members were separated. We are hunting them down one by one." The Vice Minister said.
"Consolation? I think not." Cornelia said, "Not only did Lord Guilford died in battle, we had our entire army in nothing but shambles after that entire fiasco and the people are still panicking."
The men looked shocked.
"If there was anyone that I'd find responsible for all of this is the administration that was established ever since we conquered Area 11." Cornelia said.
"Well your highness—"
"Don't give me even so much as an excuse. You did nothing about the mining railways and subways, giving every Resistance group a place to strike from and retreat to." Cornelia said, "You didn't even do anything about the Refrain trafficking here as well."
"Well we didn't have the budget. We can't fill them all in. Not only that, we never knew anything about—"
"And that's not all gentlemen. I think you also forgot about the Tekkadan Resistance Cell." Cornelia said.
The men were surprised. They realized that they forgot about that small resistance cell. They dismissed it as nothing but a group of vigilantes.
"Every time they made an appearance, you failed to stop them time and time again. Back then they only had crummy C6 Knightwalkers, but now they've grown into the Black Knights lead by Zero and have Knightmares!" Cornelia said, "Isn't that right, Vice Minister?"
The Vice minister was sweating. He tried to think of something.
"Well, they weren't a threat as we thought they were, besides—"
"Then what about Shinjuku?" Cornelia asked.
The vice minister was silent.
"Not only that, I had suspicions about the NAC backing resistance groups everywhere. Except all the evidence and everything that was suppose to prove their connections to those suspicions being true were destroyed along with the list of collaborators! And it's all your fault gentlemen!" Cornelia said.
"B-But what about that disk?" The Vice Minister asked.
"We looked into the disk gave us and found a list of everyone involved with the program. He was among the people on that list." Euphemia said.
"So even if he was in the project, he already cut ties with the project. He's not even a problem now." Cornelia said, "You are all incompetent. Now get out of my sight."
Mount Fuji
The 6 Houses of Kyoto were having a meeting concerning the Black Knights after Narita.
"What do you mean we shouldn't support the Black Knights? They saved most of the JLF, shouldn't we give them a chance at making Japan's liberation a reality?" A man asked.
"Why should we trust them? They killed Kusakabe. Just because they managed to take the lives of both of Cornelia's Royal Guardsmen, they're just would be robin hoods." A second man said.
"Not only that, they are made up of small resistance groups like the Tekkadan Resistance led by Naoto Kozuki and the Yamato Alliance led by Keitaro Heiwajima." A third man said.
"No, they managed to do the impossible, I say we help them." A fourth man said.
"Enough!" A fifth man said as he tapped his staff on the ground.
"Lord Kirihara…." The men said.
"We must agree unanimously, it's either we give the Black Knights support or not." Kirihara said.
"Well maybe we should." A girl said.
"Lady Kaguya?" The first man said.
"We gave them the Guren MK.2 and the Gekka, and they used it excellently. I suggest we back them up." Kaguya said.
"But should we?" The second man asked.
"Just call it a woman's intuition." Kaguya said.
Teiwaz HQ
Zero was being taken to the HQ of Teiwaz in the Pacific Ocean. The helicopter approached a huge rig with several structures far from the main structure. The helicopter lands. The door opens as Zero stepped out. Zero was being escorted to the office of Teiwaz's CEO. The door opens to reveal a man with black hair with a mustache wearing a hat. It was Mcmurdo Bastion, CEO of Teiwaz. He runs the organization like a mafia.
"Mcmurdo I presume?" Zero asked.
"The one and only." Mcmurdo said.
"So you invited me here, why is that?" Zero asked.
"I want you to be a part of this organization. Don't get me wrong, I won't hassle you or anything should you accept, and I won't rat you out at all either. I can give you money, fire power, and all the resources you need for this rebellion of yours." Mcmurdo said.
He hands him a cup of tea. Mcmurdo gets another cup of tea.
"A tradition?" Zero asked.
"That's right, We both drink this, and were buddies. It's that simple, well except you may need to change the appropriate clothes, I'm already in a kimono, now just go get yours on. And no need to worry, there ain't no camera's in here." Mcmurdo said.
Zero went and puts the Kimono on. They sat in a familiar sitting position. Zero takes off the mask.
"Well, you look quite young. That might explain why you look a tad bit smaller than I imagined." Mcmurdo said.
"Well I can't blame you? Who else would have known that I'm not as tall as they think I am?" Lelouch said.
They both take a drink.
"Well, guess that settles things. Take this here certificate, it'll prove you're with Teiwaz." Mcmurdo said as Lelouch got his Zero Costume back on.
"Anything that I need to know before I leave?" Lelouch asked as he puts in his mask.
"Naze's little girl, Alice is attending your school." Mcmurdo said.
'Nunnally's new friend?' Lelouch thought.
"Now get on outta here old sport. Don't think we have time to chit-chat for long anyway. There's a sub that will take you back home." Mcmurdo said.
Zero left Teiwaz HQ and made it back to Area 11.
Black Knights Mobile Trailer
"You mean we're—"
"That's right, we official now have Teiwaz backing us up." Zero said as he held up a certificate stating that the Black Knights are a part of Teiwaz.
The Black Knights celebrated in joy.
'Were being backed by mobsters just by simply being a subsidiary in their conglomerate.' Todoh thought.
"If that's not enough, were being invited by Kyoto!" Naoto said.
"K-Kyoto?!" Chiba exclaimed.
"You were saying about how they wouldn't support us?" Asahina said.
"S-Shut it!" Chiba said as she walked Asahina with a pillow.
'Probably Kaguya begging Lelouch to be her husband.' Nunnally thought.
"Now our financial troubles are over!" Tamaki said.
"TAMAKI NO!" Ohgi, Sugiyama, Naoto, Yoshida, Keitaro, and Gin said.
'Oh no crap!' Tamaki thought.
"Tamaki…" Zero said in a menacing voice.
"Um….. Uh…. How do I put it?" Tamaki said.
'Oh my god….. Damnit Tamaki, why can't you just clam up for once?' Naoto thought.
Zero grabbed Tamaki and threw him out of the trailer.
Tamaki count: 2
"Well anyway it's best just to prepare for the worst." Zero said.
Ashford Academy
Shirley just got two tickets to a concert. She had imagined her and Lelouch going there. She had always wanted to go somewhere with Lelouch once in her life with no one else but her and the boy she loved.
'Thank you papa.' Shirley thought.
Suzaku and Rai were on the roof looking at the sky.
"So Suzaku, have you ever had a girlfriend before?" Rai asked.
"No, why do you ask?" Suzaku asked.
"Well I just want to know….. Do you have a crush on Euphemia?" Rai asked.
Suzaku's face suddenly turns red as he got up. Steam had came out of his ears.
"N-No! What do you— I guess I kinda do but— No! NO! It's not like that at all!" Suzaku said all flustered.
"So you do like her. Are you afraid about Cornelia if she found out?" Rai asked.
"Rai…. No more… I don't want to….. I would never… Just no." Suzaku said as his face blushed.
'Come on man admit it! Admit the fact you have a boner for her damnit!' Rai thought.
"Rai, why are doing this?" Suzaku asked.
"I was wondering if you hard on for her." Rai said.
"RAI WHAT THE—"
"Later." Rai said as he left the roof down the stairs.
Suzaku was left confused by the recents events that happened. Meanwhile, Lelouch and Nunnally packed up for the trip to Kyoto.
"Hey Lelouch, does Kaguya still have a thing for you?" Nunnally asked.
"I'm afraid she does, is their a problem?" Lelouch asked.
"When are you going to give into her?" Nunnally asked.
"Nunnally… You know what will happen if I given to her." Lelouch said.
"So what if she starts a harem with her along with CC and the others?" Nunnally asked.
"Nunnally, copulating more than one woman is something a man can't simply pull off." Lelouch said.
"Father did it." Nunnally said.
"That's because his lust knows no bounds." Lelouch said.
"Or maybe unlike you, he actually exercises." Nunnally said.
Lelouch was speechless at that point.
"You really got to be more daring, like me." Nunnally said.
Suddenly, Marianne possesses her daughter as Nunnally's eyes glow with red rings.
"Actually, do you want me?" Marianne said.
'Damn you mother! Damn you and your ability to possess people!' Lelouch thought.
He had already found out about Nunnally having to harbor Marianne's soul as Nunnally said something about Marianne protecting Nunnally from within the Ganymede.
"Forget it mother. There's no way I'm falling for one of your advances." Lelouch said.
"But don't you love me?" Marianne asked.
"Yes, but as your son, not a lover." Lelouch said.
"Oh, but I will have my way with you soon enough my son." Marianne said.
Nunnally quickly got control of her body again.
'Oh thank god Nunnally has control of herself again.' Lelouch thought.
Mount Fuji
Zero and the members of the Tekkadan Resistance Cell were riding in a limousine that was going in a tunnel. The limo stops as an elevator below the limo rose upward.
'We're going up?' Kallen thought.
The elevator stops and the two men opened the doors. The Black Knights exit the limo. They couldn't believe where they were right now.
"Are we actually in the Fuji mines?" Tamaki asked.
"This has to be the place." Ohgi said.
"We're actually standing on the Sakuradite." Minami said.
"You know what they do to intruders? Execute them." Tamaki said.
"The Kyoto Group is amazing…" Ohgi said.
"It's repulsive." A voice came.
The group turns to see an old man masked by a curtain with two guards.
"This is nothing but hideous violation of what Japan has become. Mount Fuji, a place known for its sacred beauty and tranquil waters is now bent to the Empire's will." The old man said.
Burais came from the left and the right.
"Zero, though it is rude for me to do this, you will show me your face." The old man said.
"Alright then." Zero said.
He reached for his mask and took it off.
'No….. It can't be….' The old man thought.
"Hello there, Kirihara." Lelouch said.
"Lelouch?" Kirihara muttered.
"LELOUCH!" A voice came as a girl suddenly flung herself at Lelouch, tackling him from the curtains.
It was Kaguya. She had suddenly felt excited to see her "future husband" after all this time.
"Kaguya?!" Lelouch said.
"Oh Lelouch! I knew you were Zero! I knew it because of my love for you." Kaguya said, "So will you be my future husband now?"
"F-fine…" Lelouch said grumpily.
She squealed in joy.
'I feel like I'm going to regret.' Lelouch thought.
Kirihara laughed as he came out from the curtains.
"So you finally give in to the girl's request. She couldn't stop talking about you for a week ever since your debut as Zero." Kirihara said, "If you want support from me then I will help you as best as I can."
"I'm grateful Kirihara. I thank you." Lelouch said.
The Black Knights take their leave from the mountain.
'Teiwaz must be supporting you Lelouch. If that's the case, then I think you've grown to have become a great leader who is supported from far and wide.' Kirihara thought, 'Go forth, masked knight of Justice.'
Tokyo Settlement
Lelouch and Shirley were at the concert. They were enjoying it. After the concert was over, the couple left and went back home. Meanwhile in his room Suzaku looked in sorrow.
'Every opportunity to try to make things better and it comes down and I'm to blame for it.' Suzaku thought.
"No it isn't." A voice came.
Suzaku turned to see a younger version of him. This was another figment of his mind long before the Second Pacific War came. It was much more cheerful than the harsh and sorrowful Suzaku that wanted it to end.
"What do you want?" Suzaku asked the younger version of him.
"Just stay positive." The younger Suzaku said.
"Right, stay positive." Suzaku said as he laid his head down, "What good I'll that do?"
"It'll make you feel better." The younger Suzaku said.
'I must be losing it right now, first one part of my mind almost put me on the border of suicide and now this munchkin wants me to wear a fake smile.' Suzaku thought.
"It's not like that." The younger Suzaku said.
"Then what is it?" Suzaku asked.
"Don't you have a reason to be here? A reason to be who you want to be? A dream perhaps?" The younger Suzaku asked.
"What of it? After all I did, I shouldn't live at all." Suzaku said, "I'm only doing it just to redeem myself."
"But do you have to die for that work?" The younger Suzaku asked.
"What would you want me to do?" Suzaku asked.
"Well…. Euphie's a nice person….. Maybe you two could…" The younger Suzaku said as he fidgeted his fingers.
"There's nothing you could do for me. Just leave me alone." Suzaku said.
The younger Suzaku faded away.
'I will be forever alone, will I?' Suzaku thought.
Alice opens the door because she thought she heard Suzaku talking to himself.
"Hey Baka, I heard you talking to yourself, are you—"
She found him asleep and closed the door and went to the girls dorms.
The Next Day…
Lelouch couldn't tell if he was in hell. That was because Kaguya of all people found out where he was and enrolled at Ashford just for the sake of being with her 'future husband'. Right now, she is in the Student council room, alone with Lelouch.
'Oh no….' Lelouch thought.
"So how are we, my 'future husband'?" Kaguya asked as she held in to his arm and snuggled it.
"F-fine…" Lelouch said.
"Lelouch, are you in love with another girl?" Kaguya asked, "Because if so, we can have a harem."
She snuggled the boy in her arms.
'If I do start a harem, what are the odds I'll— No! Stop it Lelouch! You're a man! Don't let these petty limits bind you!' Lelouch thought, "It's complicated."
"Well then, if that's the case, will you let me be your first—"
Kaguya stopped to see Nunnally just making that blank expression. The moment she saw it was a sign to get away. She lets go and leaves.
'Wait, I thought I was having a moment.' Lelouch thought.
Next Day…
Cornelia had found something in the Code R disk. She saw things relating to cybernetic reconstruction and the possibility of cybernetic soldiers given an NLS Whisker. She had hope in herself again thinking that the Code R team had stumbled upon Guilford's body and took it to use for their cybernetic studies. Camera's saw a truck leaving a storage house. Two people came out. One of them was Madd. Apparently, he was on the phone concerning the team itself. Cornelia had no idea what the call was, but it must have something to do with the team being relocated. She had the police go and check things out in the harbor. The police found a giant Gloucester in a warehouse. The cockpit was sealed and locked, there was no way to open it without causing harm to the pilot.
A few minutes afterwards, she had found out that some resistance groups were coming together. She discovered signs of remnants of the JLF were actually trying to flee to China. This was her chance to capture the and use them as an example. She had her forces mobilize to port Yokosuka. Her movements were reported by Diethard Ried. Diethard had joined the Black Knights with little concern from Chiba herself. The information was accurate, so Zero ordered a operation at the port to capture Cornelia once again.
In a Warehouse
The Ganymede was being modified by some technicians from Teiwaz. The Ganymede was given a Kaiten Blade that looked like a Nodachi and a Smoothbore cannon that is held via a manipulator arm. The Ganymede was also getting forearm mounted hand cannons. Todoh had trained Nunnally the way of the Nodachi with kendo practice, so she should use it well. The Rei was also going to use the Ganymede's old mace. It was still big, so it's usable. The Siegfried was being modified so the Raikou's EMC or Electromagnetic Cannon would serve as the barrel for its new S-Particle Cannon that Nina designed using the various formulas from the Siegfried's data. Alice's Burai was sent from Teiwaz as she was a voluntary member of the Black Knights. The Gusion was being remodeled. Once finished, it will be the Gusion Rebake. The Gusion Rebake would look more like the Ganymede.
'So this is the Black Knights…. Incredible.' Alice thought.
"So, you're here." Nunnally said.
"Oh, Nunnally." Alice said, "How's your brother doing?"
"He's doing fine actually." Nunnally said.
The Burai Kais were being tuned up by Rivalz and the technicians. The Gekka's 3 pronged claw was being replaced with a replica of the Guren's claw. A new batch of C6s came in.
'With this much in our hands, the Black Knights won't lose.' Lelouch thought.
At Noon
Port Yokosuka
The ASEEC Corps was being put into the operation because Cornelia knew she could not take any other chances at this point. She needed the Lancelot and the Club to get rid of the Black Knights somehow. Euphie and Nonette were at the Government Bureau working some things out.
The Royal Marines in their Portmans were on standby. They will storm the ship as forces on the coast began laying down support fire from the shores. All they had to do was capture the leader of the escaping remnants.
Fenette Residence
Joseph was about to leave the house as he got his jacket on. He knew Madd was after him, he needed to put a stop to Madd before he could harm Joseph's family. He left the house.
Susan was worried about her husband, thinking he might get hurt.
'Oh Joseph, be careful out there.' She thought.
Unknown to Joseph, he was being followed by Viletta Nu.
