Sorry for not updating, my brother accidentally hurt my dog, so I had to spend last weekend giving her some TLC and then taking her to the vet and animal hospital.

Underground Lab
Area 18, previously Saudi Arabia, was taken over by 2nd Princess Cornelia Li Britannia in the year 2017 A.T.B. Now with Eighteens and Britanians living in peace, the Area has started to live peacefully towards its original path.
"That's the propaganda record they send to other countries to prevent them from feeling too sympathetic towards conquered countries" said the white-haired Earl Lloyd Asplund.
"Yes, Area 18, unlike Area 11, is a broken horse; a beaten dog that has tasted the club of Britannia and become a shell of its former glory. Out of all Areas, this one has the perfect environment for our 'research'. That's why we need you Earl Asplund" said a lavender-haired teenager.
"I'm more of the Knightmare Frame guy than secret project guy; Cecile would be more suited towards the task"
"That lab assistant of yours… we brought her here with you"
"Lloyd, where are you?" said Cecile.
"If you don't help us, I can't guarantee this girl's safety" said the teen.
"…may I know the name of my 'partner'?"
"Just call me A.A."
Desert
"So, we're looking for the Code Dictorate somewhere in this sea of sand, right?" asked Shirley.
"Yes, we need to find it and destroy it to complete our mission" said Lelouch.
"Unfortunately, our Knightmares' float systems aren't accommodated to the atmosphere and can't fly in these conditions, so we need to search by land" said Suzaku, piloting a reconstructed Lancelot Club.
"I'm surprised that hunk of junk still works since it was made for a backup for the original Lancelot Conquista" said Lelouch.
"I'm surprised that those two witches know how to make a Knightmare" said Suzaku.
"I wonder where they learned so much?" thought Shirley out loud.
Soon their conversation was disrupted by a trembling sound coming from underneath the sand.
"What was that?" asked Shirley.
"I don't know, but I think it came from underground, maybe we found the Code Dictorate" said Lelouch.
Then, a robotic worm made of three elongated Siegfrieds came up from under the sand.
"They're Siegfrieds!" said Suzaku.
Lancelot Club then started speeding towards the front of the monster and drew its MVS's, attempting to cut through straight forward, but the Siegfried Tri-Terra proved too powerful to be hurt that easily. It then separated into three separate Siegfrieds and battled Lancelot Club, Shinkiro, and Ganymede.
Lelouch's Fight
Shinkiro had blocked the initial surprise attack and retaliated by firing Hadron blasts, but each one missed as the Siegfried burrowed underground to hide from fire, and then re-emerge from underneath Shinkiro. Lelouch then thought of a plan to smoke out Shinkiro. He fired again at Siegfried, but used the Prism rather than the Hadron blasts. After the Siegfried re-emerged, Shinkiro used its ADT to hold it off, and then force it into the air. Lelouch then fired the Chest Laser into the Prism, to refract it, and hit the Siegfried in its back; its weak point, the Siegfried then started falling towards Shinkiro, and was destroyed by the Hadron blasts.
The resulting explosion had unearthed a metal hatch
Shirley's Fight
Ganymede was able to evade the Siegfried's constant surprise attacks underground, but the fight was getting nowhere. Shirley attempted to try a direct attack, but the Siegfried's shields were too powerful to make a direct hit. The Hadron cannon were also too slow to hit it either. Shirley then got the idea to destroy it. She fired the Hadron Cannon at the Siegfried, but immediately dashed towards the Siegfried to prevent it from moving, then used it as a shield for the Ganymede's own attack.
The metal hatch then opened
Suzaku's Fight
Suzaku wasn't fairing so well, the Lancelot Club was a sixth generation knock-off of the Lancelot Conquista, and was having trouble keeping up with the Siegfried. No matter how hard Suzaku tried, he just wasn't fast enough to react to the Siegfried's underground fighting style. The Club was suffering heavy damage, with its left arm severed and the midsection damaged by the Siegfried. The Siegfried then fired an electrical charge at the Club, and it fell into the hatch opened by Shinkiro and Ganymede.
"Lord Kururugi, I see you're hopeless in a Knightmare without us" said Lloyd.
"Lloyd, you're here?"
"Yeah, Cecile and I were captured by this guy named A.A. and forced to be scientist for the creepy experiments in this place"
"Cecile is here too?"
"Suzaku, you're here" said Cecile.
"Ms. Cecile, I'm glad you're okay"
"Hey Cecile, it's the Lancelot Club. I thought that he would never need to use it, but it turns out he was stupid enough to go toe-to-toe with that Guren. Well, it looks like, we'll have to help you" said Lloyd.
"What?"
"We had brought the parts for Lancelot Albion with us when we were kidnapped, it's going to be a tough job, but we might be able to give you a fighting chance" said Cecile.
Back on surface
"Lulu, where's Suzaku?" asked Shirley.
"He fell down that metal hatch and was chased by the Siegfried, let's follow"
The two Knightmares also went down the hatch and entered a dark room.
"Hello Lelouch" said a mysterious voice.
A Gefjun disturber then crippled the Ganymede and Shinkiro, Shirley and Lelouch promptly exited.
"Where'd you get a Gefjun Disturber?" asked Lelouch.
"We salvaged it from the Gawain after the Black Knights had their fill" replied the teen.
"That explains why this place remained off the map for such a long time"
"Yes"
"You're foolish to have forced me out of my Knightmare alone"
Lelouch then removed the contact from his eyes.
"I command you…Die"
"…that doesn't work on me"
The teen then turned around and lifted up his shirt, revealing the red Code mark on his back.
"My name is A.A., and you're the one who's alone"
A.A. snapped his fingers and five Siegfrieds illuminated the room, which was a Knightmare garage. The Siegfried's aimed their Cone Harkens at the couple and fired-
-all the Cone Harkens were stopped by a glowing green Blaze Luminous shield.
"Lancelot Albion online" said Suzaku.
"What, that Knightmare is completely immune to the Gefjun Disturber, even the Siegfrieds are at least somewhat affected" said A.A.
"Guys, leave the Knightmares to me, you take care of A.A." said Suzaku.
"Right"
The Lancelot Albion then activated its float system and broke through the ceiling with the Siegfrieds in tow. The Lancelot fired its Slash Harkens to tangle one Siegfried and send it flying into another; it then drew its MVS and sliced through the back of one, instantly destroying it. The second Siegfried tried to force the battle onto the ground, but was shot by the VARIS when it left its back exposed. The three remaining Siegfrieds started to connect and fuse to form the Siegfried Tri-Terra. Its shield was so strong, no even the VARIS could pierce it. The Siegfried then fired its Cone Harkens and hit the Lancelot Albion's Float System, and it fell. However, Lloyd and Cecile had gotten the Energy Wing System, hijacked a destroyed Siegfried, and fired the Wings at the Lancelot. The Wings docked and spread.
"Whoa, these are the same wings used on the Guren" said Suzaku.
Too bad, the Wings took their toll on the Lancelot, and Suzaku found out that he couldn't use his weapons and fly at the same time.
"I've got to fight and destroy my enemy, I've got to live for my friends
LIVE!!
The Geass command had activated.
"What, Suzaku's synch ratio has reached 100" said Lloyd.
The Lancelot Albion then used its final attack, Wing Spear; it fired dozens of spears of green energy from its wings, and destroyed Siegfried Tri-Terra.
"Suzaku, we won"

It's a bit Suzaku-centric. Just thought of an idea to introduce Lancelot Albion and the use of his Geass command as a weapon, next issue will have LelouchxShirley fluff. And I'm thinking of either SuzakuxCecile, or SuzakuxNunally. Review please, and decide which.
