Chapter 5: "Zero"

Disclaimer: I do not own Fairy Tail or Code Geass!


It was a dark night at Ashford Academy.

Lucy finally returned and entered into her room. She walked in and saw Euphemia was already in deep sleep. Lucy tip toed to the desk and got a piece of paper out, she was writing a note to Euphemia.

Dear Euphemia,

I have to take care of some business and it's going to take me all night and all tomorrow.

Sincerely,

Lucy~

Lucy finished her letter and slowly walked out of the room. She closed the door and looked around to see if anyone was watching her. Nobody was and she started to leave Ashford Academy.

She was finally outside and remembered of what happened earlier.

"What can I do," she asked slowly with tears, "TO DESTROY BRITANNIA?" Lucy suddenly yelled loudly to Kallen.

Kallen smirked and spoke, "you can join the Black Knights," she offered.

Lucy stood still and remembered what happened yesterday. "No way, one of them tried to kidnap me!" while protesting to Kallen, something bothered her. "Hey…..are you part of that rebellion gang?"

Kallen made a wide grin and held out her rebellion head band, "you're correct! See, not all of us are that bad," Kallen exclaimed while wrapping her head band around her own forehead. Lucy sighed and felt like she lost to a war.

"You have a point…..I'll join!" Lucy finally accepted her offer.

Kallen handed her a map, "go here at 12:00 am! Our leader will be there waiting."


Lucy finally made it to the hide out.

She looked around and took a peak at her watch. The time was 12:00 am.

Suddenly, a masked man came out, gripping a gun in his hand. Lucy screamed in terror and was about to run away.

"Don't worry!" called out the masked man. Lucy immediately stopped screaming and stared at him for awhile.

"I'm not going to hurt you," said the man. Lucy calmed down and stood their patiently.

"Then why do you have a gun out?" Lucy questioned him.

The masked man tucked the gun in his pocket. "I just wanted to see if you brought any weapon with you," he exclaimed. Lucy pouted with an angry face.

"Lucy," he said calmly. "Do you really want to join the Black Knights?"

Lucy shook her head yes, "I want to join!"

The masked man sighed. "Then I'll accept your request."

Lucy smiled brightly, "so, what can I do first? Explode some buildings, or-"

"Lucy, I have to do something important," the masked man interrupted.

"What is it?" Lucy asked while blinking.

"Well, I want to show you my identity. So you won't be hurt in the future," he explained. Lucy looked confused and thought of something.

"Hey, I forgot to ask what your name is." Lucy exclaimed.

"Oh yeah, you never heard of me before. My name is Zero-"Lucy eyes widened. Zero had a bad feeling that she heard of his name before.

"Wait a minute…Zero was the man who killed Clovis! He also killed many innocent Britannias!" Lucy yelled with anger. Zero snapped from that comment.

"So what? The Britannia's killed many innocent Japanese! Neither side is the hero!" Lucy's face was now serious. Her eyes looked like a murder.

"I knew it was a bad idea coming here," as she started to walk away, an explosion happened in the hide out. It startled her and Zero.

"What was that?" Lucy asked in a surprised voice. Zero tightened his fist and ran into the hide out. Lucy just flipped her hair and walked back to Ashford Academy. Not caring about the explosion.

Zero entered into the Knightmare area and saw everything was destroyed.

Kallen was standing there in shock and her mouth dropped opened. "Everything is gone…"

Zero slammed his fist into the wall and looked straight at Ohgi. "Do you know who did this?"

Ohgi shrugged, "not a single clue."

C.C. then entered the room. "It was probably someone from the military, but we should really run away before we turn into corpse. Well, of course I won't," C.C. bragged about her immortality.

Zero listened to her and started to send a retreat throughout the hide out. "Everyone, get out of here! We will make a plan later to attack the army!" Lelouch ordered.

The Black Knights listened and stormed off outside.


It was finally the next day at Ashford Academy.

Lucy was in class looking out the window. She was worried that Black Knights might go after her since she angered them. But, then she decided to forget about it.

Lunch finally came and she headed out of class.

She entered into the Council Room and saw Milly, Nina, Suzaku, Shirley, and Rivalz. She wasn't surprised that Kallen wasn't going to be there, but where was Lelouch.

"Hey, where is Lelouch?" Lucy asked Suzaku, figured that he might know.

"He is probably ditching School again," Suzaku replied.

Lucy sighed and knew it that he became a delinquent over the years. Then, something popped into her mind.

"Well, I want to show you my identity. So you won't be hurt in the future."

She remembered what Zero had said to her. She wondered what he meant by that? And weird enough, he acted kind to her, instead of attacking. Lucy's stomach started to feel nervous when the thought of Lelouch not being at School today.

Could it be that Lelouch is Zero? Lucy thought to herself. It makes sense! Lelouch is a banished Prince and probably wants revenge. But, if that was true, then that means he killed Clovis, and the other innocent people.

Her eyes then started to look like a murder, once again. She couldn't believe that Lelouch was the cause of killing million civilians of Britannia. But, she wasn't exactly sure yet if he was Zero. Still, it's a good theory and she could try to find the truth out, with a little help from a pink headed friend and some Council members.

"Milly, can I join the Student Council?" Lucy asked with a fake smile, trying to hold in her anger.

"Sure, I love to have new recruits!" Milly exclaimed.

Lucy snickered, "good! I can't wait to tell Lelouch about this."
