Also i haven't been getting any reviews (only got 1 for chapter 4) so do try to give me some feedback cause without it i really don't feel like writing that much.....
A New Ally
Nobody moved. The room was silent until the knocking continued at which point Diethard motioned for the low level soldier closest to the door to open it. The door creaked open and everyone held their breath as a young man walked into the room.
He had messy black hair and circles under his eyes. He appeared to be in his early twenties and wore a long sleeved white shirt and blue jeans and surprisingly no shoes or socks. His back was hunched over as he walked into the room.
He didn't get far as three of the soldiers pointed their guns at him, this didn't seem to surprise him however he merely raised his hands in a gesture of peace. Everyone in the room was surprised however none as much as Light and Misa since they knew exactly who this strange young man was.
"….L???" Light managed to mutter as he stumbled backwards. How is he alive? Light thought to himself. Is it possible that he was brought back too just like me and Misa? But that would mean that the people in this dimension could pull people from any point in time, the question is does L know who me and Misa are?
"L? But Light I thought we kil-"Misa's sentence was cut off by Light shoving his hand over Misa's mouth just in time. However it looked like L had heard her.
"Hello Light, Misa." Everyone turned their heads to the pair then back to the newcomer.
"Who are you and what do you want? How did you find this place?" Diethard demanded of L.
"I am L; I am here to speak to Light Yagami." L said pointing at Light; this however did nothing to reassure the soldiers who kept their guns pointed.
"It's okay; I'll talk to him outside." Light said walking towards L. Light squeezed past the soldiers and motioned for L to follow as everyone else just looked confused. It was still late morning and Light walked over to a nearby tree determined to find out why L had somehow found his way back to life.
"Thank you for being so civil Light, but you're probably wondering why I'm here much less alive."
"Yes, I'm going to assume you were pulled from our dimension into this one the same way I was." L nodded in agreement, not surprised at all how quickly Light caught on.
"I seemed to have been pulled moments before the heart attack induced by Misa's death note would have killed me." Lights eyebrows raised for a moment as he realized L now knew everything about him being Kira. L continued, "When I came to I was in the apartment of a man named Suzaku. He seems to hate your partner, Lelouch quite a lot but after listening to him rant for a while I came to the conclusion that he is insane. "
"He told me some of what's going on in this world and I picked the rest up off the internet when he was gone and realized I had been enlisted for the wrong side in this conflict. Light I am asking you to put aside our differences and work together this once; I believe I can be of use in overthrowing the Brittanian government."
Light was appalled; L had come here to join his side? Back when he lost his memories he and L had been a formidable team, surely together nothing could stop them! But for now Light had to play it cool.
"How did you find us?"
"I was able to track his Knightmare via a monitor in his apartment, from there I knew you would be escaping and was able to pinpoint the most likely escape route. From there I took some of Suzaku's money and called a cab." Light nodded, L truly was a formidable foe, and now ally, but one question remained in Light's mind.
"Alright L, but what is it you want? Surely you have a catch?"
"That is correct, you may be content to stay in this world Light, but I want to get back to my own. I help you overthrow Brittania, and you help me get back to my world."
"Agreed, for now we are allies." Light indicated they should go inside so they edged back into the silent building. Upon reentering the building Light explained to the Black Knights that L was a friend of theirs that could be very useful, he purposely left out his connection to Suzaku to avoid suspicion.
Before anything else could be decided upon one of the Black Knights had found an old TV and managed to hook it up. The escapees turned the news on and learned that Zero had been captured and was being detained at the capital with the rest of the captured knights. Kaguya and the rest were shocked and unsure of what to do with this new turn of events.
While the rest of the Black Knights were debating L motioned for Light and Misa to follow him into the other room. He pulled a folded piece of paper out of his pants pocket and handed it over to Light.
"This is a list of some names of high up people in Brittania and their pictures, including the emperor and even Suzaku. But before you write their names in your death note you should listen to my plan." Light raised an eyebrow in disbelief.
"You want me to kill them off with my death note? But weren't you the one who called me a mere murderer for using it? Isn't that a bit unlike you L?"
"Normally in our world yes, however someone such as the emperor would never be put to trial and the probability of our success without you killing them is quite low," L said with a shrug.
"Alright then, what is your plan?"
"First you're going to need your friends in the other room to acquire some more Knightmares before we can start." Light merely nodded, according to what Diethard had mentioned the Black Knights had a few friends so getting a few Knightmares wouldn't be too hard.
"The next part of the plan involves Suzaku, from listening to his insane ranting I've concluded that he won't be satisfied unless he gets to kill Lelouch himself, and since the TV broadcast said he'll be publically executed it's very unlikely he'll get his wish." Light leaned against the wall and nodded; he already knew where L was going but let him continue anyway.
"My plan is we get a small band of Knightmares then have you kill off the people on that list," L motioned towards the paper in Light's hand. "Suzaku will probably use the confusion to attempt to free Lelouch so he can kill him himself, then while everyone's distracted by that we free the rest of the Black Knights and their Knightmares. Once their free we can help Lelouch and go from there."
Light and Misa agreed to the plan with some minor changes and went back to the other room. Deithard and Kaguya were still arguing when Light told them of the plan. L came back from the kitchen with a lollipop and noticed Light had left out the part involving the death note, instead assuring them of a secret weapon hidden in the Brittanian capital.
The rest of the Black Knights quickly agreed to the plan and they all boarded the hidden plane headed for the base in the Chinese federation. Their plan set but their goal seemed to very far away.
In a high security prison on Brittanian Soil
Zero's plan of escaping using his Geass was stopped when his Knightmare was hit with sleeping gas before he could even look anyone in the eye. He awoke chained up with a blindfold over his eyes. He had no idea where he was or how long he'd been there. "HEY! Where am I? C.C.?" Zero screamed out but no one answered him, he assumed he had been separated from C.C. and was now alone in a cell somewhere.
How am I going to manage to get someone under my control if I can't even see anyone? I'm completely at their mercy, for now I'll have to wait until an opportunity presents itself. Hopefully that bastard Light will use that brain and rescue me! Zero's thoughts were interrupted when he heard a door open somewhere to his left.
"You've managed to fail again Lelouch." The voice was male, harsh and uncaring. He recognized it as the voice of his father, the emperor.
"It was inevitable, the weak are not equal to the strong, and your goal itself was ridiculous. You are too much trouble to keep alive and have no more use now that I've captured C.C. You will be publically executed to put an end to your rebellion." Lelouch could hear the low chuckle of his father's laughter as he turned and left the room.
