I didn't like writing this chapter... Review!

So, the Emperor decided that a precession through the streets was good enough to show off the people he'd captured. It was their execution, and they were being paraded through the streets like white statues. They were lined up in two rows on two separate vehicles that travelled before his own; he sat atop of his throne, staring down at the people below with such a cold stare. My gaze was limited through the slit blinds that we hide behind. I stood silently next to Viletta who was staring down at the parade in shock as she noticed Ohgi amongst those waiting to be executed. I watched out of the corner of my eyes as she took a step back, ready to run out and save him, but Cornelia caught her arm. I turned my head slightly to at her, pointing toward Nunnally that sat chained to the part of the vehicle that the Emperor sat upon.

"You are not the only one." I murmured to her, "Just wait."

Viletta nodded hesitantly as she forced herself to stay where she stood, staring out and waiting for something to happen. Neither she nor I knew what Cornelia had planned, or if she had anything planned at all. We were both lost in that thought until the name was whispered.

"...Zero."

I glanced up, "It's Zero."

He stood silently at the arch in the road; the procession coming to a halt at the knightmare frames raised their heavy guns, every person in the room frozen as we watched with wide eyes. Zero, the one who had fought against the Britannian army for so long was now standing before the Emperor, ready to put a stop to Lelouch. Our hearts raced as we sure Zero launch forward, sword in hand. He jumped over the knightmare frames with ease, before avoiding Jeremiah who had rushed forward to try and stop him. The cries from the crowd whispering in shock drifted up into the clear sky. Lelouch had rose from his seat, pulling his gun out of his hand as the enemy approached. Lelouch's prisoners all gasped as Zero rushed past, he was their leader, and he was there to save them.

Everything went still has everyone watched the gun fly from the Emperor's hands and the sharp sword finding itself embedded deep into his flesh, his blood pulsing out to his feet as he fell limp onto Zero. I leaned forward, peering through the cracks of the blinds as I saw the blood, my heart jumping a beat as I saw Zero let Lelouch go, letting him fall down the ramp, a trail of think blood trailing behind him as he came to a rest beside Nunnally. My heart ached when I heard Nunnally scream, her cries echoing through the silence. Then the chants of Zero arose, blocking her screams, as Zero raised the bloody sword to the sky. I turned, without a breath, without a heart beat as I bolted from the room, the others following. The sunlight hit us, blinding us as Cornelia cried to the world.

"Lelouch the demon is dead! Free his prisoners!"

The cheers arose, cries of happiness, cries of sadness, it all mixed together, the sound empowering as I ran to Nunnally. My eyes stung from the tears that built up, threatening to spill as I heard her screams. She was clutching at her brother's bloody hand, holding it to her face as she cried out his name.

"Big brother!" she screamed over the volume of the cries from the crowds.

I jumped onto the float and fell to my knees beside her, "Nunnally..."

She pulled away from the body of her brother, her dress stained with blood, her pale cheeks too, as were her hands, and fell forward, grasping at my collar as she cried into my chest. I pulled her closer, wrapping my arms tightly around her as I rocked her gently back and forth, hushing her cries. The pain shot me through the heart with such force the tears of my own slipped down my face. I held her so close; the blood that stained her dress stained my white uniform. Not once did she stop crying.
