3. Light

She was always his light; guiding him through the darkness


"Lelouch… why are you doing this?" C.C asked, lying on his bed, relaxed.

"Doing what?" he asked, planning out his attack on the Geass Order.

"Why are you killing off all the users of Geass? And why now, of all times? You could use them, manipulate them to do your bidding. And you're wasting them, all of them! Wouldn't it be better to have more pawns then a genocide?"

"An immortal witch shouldn't be concerned with my plans," he said gruffly, "Just sit and do as you're told."

"What are you planning to do Lelouch? I need to keep you alive. What do you have to gain from erasing the power of the king from existence?"

"If it's the power of the king than why must so many people have it?" Lelouch snapped back, "Only someone with the soul of a king can wield such a power with responsibility. Or else… there will be needless bloodshed." His voice cracked.

"You're just chocked up by that girl's death," she said, rolling around on the sofa, "You miss her. Well lover-boy, do what you want. This won't help you with your fight against Britannia. Just make sure not to die, okay?"

"Yeah. Got it." He said, preferring not to tell the witch about his plans. Soon, he will be released from the world, and the world wouldn't be happier.

"What was her name again? Shirley, was it? What a dreadful name for a girl," she smirked.

"DON'T TALK ABOUT HER LIKE THAT!" Lelouch shouted in fury, "You have nothing on her, at all! Geass was the reason why Shirley had to suffer so much! She, the last person who should be involved in this mess, was killed off by the very power that I hold! What kind of king would I be, to be without his queen?"

C.C raised an eyebrow, but changed the subject, "So is that the reason why you're planning to destroy the Geass Order? Revenge won't solve anything Lelouch, you know that. It won't bring that girl back nor will it erase her death from the world's surface. Really, I'd expect better from you."

"I don't need remarks from an immortal witch."

"Is that what I am to you? An immortal witch and nothing more? Tell me, who do you see me as?" At this, C.C went up to Lelouch, and kissed him fleetingly. "You know how I feel about you, Zero."

"We're accomplices. Nothing more. I thought we already discussed this." Lelouch's voice hit a deep monotone.

"And here I am thinking that we had so much more potential…" she sighed. "I'm going out to order more pizza."

C.C left without another word.

He turned back to his chessboard and continued planning, in total peace.
