LeAwesomeOne IX: Copycat! But... The shameless promotion worked! XD I suddenly had a few person who follow/favorite/review all of my stories in less than an hour. Suzaku is a genius. Of course bathing together is gonna save time! Why are you resisting it, Lulu? Ah... The tension around Schneizel and Lelouch... Are you planning on making them have a bromance? As in an overprotective elder brother (which does not include romance). I'd like that. UPDATE QUICK!
Reply: LeAwesome! I think something happened to SailorKickass! She doesn't answer my PMs and she hasn't updated either! Something smells fishy! Btw, of course Suzaku is a genius! Well…maybe not a "genius" genius but smart enough to know that taking a bath all together would be much faster! L.L. just likes to make things harder for Suzie-chan! Nope! No bromance! More like "I-love-you-L.L.-and-I-want-you-to-love-me-but-I'm-in-a-masochistic-mood-right-now-and-I'll-just-watch-from-afar-while-wanting-Suzaku-Kururugi-to-be-either-six-feet-under-or-mysteriously-missing!" I wonder if you'll like this more. I sometimes feel like an overprotective Schneizel has been done too many times. Oh well, here's your update!
crazy anko: You already updated. And I missed 3 chapters! Thanks for the update. :)
Reply: What!? Where the hell have you been!? Well good thing you'll read this chapter…because a bunch of shit goes down in the next XD.

The Princess and the Student
"Another victory. The rebellion in Area 18 has been quelled." The purple haired woman smirked as she said this while watching the fire around her grow and spread; tilting her head to the side when she heard a voice through her monitors and such.
"My Lady, about our next course of action…" The women then turned back towards the monitors directly in front of her and saw the man that was speaking to her.
"I'm sorry to have you clean up after my foolish younger brother." The violet eyed woman stared back at a wolfish face that had a scar running across it with an apologetic look on her face.
"Please, don't apologize, My Lady. We live to serve, and our place is with you." At his response, the woman smirked.
"Heh, do you think that Area 11 needs our usual treatment?"
"Yes, My Lady."
The woman nodded, "Good."
I'll drive you into the open Infinite! Clovis will be avenged!
…
"So do you like the power I gave you?" Schneizel watched as the friend he hadn't seen in a long time sat on his bed and looked around the room. The blonde eighteen year old felt the power surge through him before it dissipated.
"As I thought," he sat down in the desk chair and watched as Kanon made himself feel comfortable. "It was you." He sighed before looking back again, "Either way, I'm actually grateful. It allows me to speed up my schedule tremendously; which is a huge help."
Kanon fell backwards on the bed with a small smile on his face and his hair spread messily around his head. "You're actually going to follow that silly little plan of yours? When you first talked to me about it, you were ten and I thought you were joking." There was silence between the two friends. Schneizel was then reminded of something.
"What will you do now? I'm sure the military is after you."
Kanon scrunched up his nose, almost as if he tasted something bitter. "Oh, how kind of you to worry about me, especially since you left me behind at the Sumeragi estate during Britannia's invasion seven years ago." Schneizel rolled his eyes before getting up to go towards his wardrobe closet.
After some silence, the blue eyed immortal let his facial features soften. "…not the entire military, only a small faction; so it shouldn't be difficult to find a hiding place." Then, almost just to spite the blonde Britannian, the peach haired immortal began to take off his straightjacket and bury himself in Schneizel's blankets. The purple eyed boy quickly stopped putting on his pajama shirt and turned towards the blue eyed male; leaving his broad muscled chest bare for the world to see.
"What!? You expect to stay here!?"
Kanon stared back at his blonde friend with an emotionless face. "A gentleman would sleep on the floor." Schneizel hardened his gaze into a glare.
"Don't joke around, Kanon." At this, Kanon smirked up at Schneizel who began to approach the bed at a steady pace.
"My being caught would cause trouble for you, too." When the schoolboy reached the bed, he put one clothed leg on it and placed both hands on either side of Kanon's head.
"It's dangerous to stay together." Even though Kanon felt his heart jumped a little, his face betrayed no emotion that would show such a thing.
"If I wander the streets, they'll find me." Schneizel's glare softened a bit, but still remained firm.
"This isn't about you. It's my situation." Kanon then turned on his side and closed his eyes.
"You know I hate stubbornness, Schneizel." Schneizel then removed himself from the peach haired immortal's person space and sat on the floor.
"How you have managed to survive before all this, I may never know. Though I have to ask, what were you doing before we were reunited? And what is the deal with your contract?"
"Good night, Schneizel." The blonde Britannian then remembered why he had left Kanon back at the Sumeragi estate seven years ago.
…
It was early in the morning when Lloyd and Cecile watched as some scientists loaded the Lancelot onto a large transport vehicle.
"Koshima, Kohchi, Hiroshima; this has been the seventh occurrence since that man named Infinite raised his head." Lloyd sighed before he looked off to the side, away from all the action.
"It seems that all the other groups are following his lead and putting up a valiant fight." The blue haired assistant frowned before she sat and looked at one of the monitors that was still on.
"And now, suspicions about that 'Orange' thing have caused Margrave Jeremiah his command." The light purple haired scientist walked over to his assistant and looked over her shoulder with a bored expression.
"Maybe he wasn't good enough. Thanks to him, connections between the police and the administration are screwed up. It's made a fine mess for us as well. Oh well!" Lloyd fell into the seat beside Cecile's.
"Let's just focus on picking up Suzaku for now." The blue haired assistant nodded her agreement before shutting off the monitor.
…
The sunlight streamed into Schneizel's room. The blonde schoolboy was nearly dressed for school while his friend merely sat on the undone bed in a large, white button down shirt.
"Everyone on Earth is looking for you. Because of you, the world is going through an upheaval. So" Kanon smirked before he continued. "Is this it? Is this what you wanted?" As the blonde haired schoolboy put on his school uniform, he shook his head.
"No, this is simply a means to an end." Schneizel then turned partially, leaving his arm up so that the only part visible to the immortal was his eyes. "The world is destined to descend into greater chaos."
Silence ensued and then "You look like a wannabe vampire."
…
"Case number 107, Private Suzaku Kururugi, Area 11 Military Forces. In the murder of His Highness, Prince Clovis, you are no longer a suspect and hereby set free due to lack of evidence."
Those words rang in Suzaku's head as he walked down the sidewalk while carrying a sack full of his small amount of things. He felt didn't feel particularly cold but had simply decided to wear his blue trench coat over his earthy yellow colored long sleeve shirt.
"What happened?" the Japanese boy asked himself as he continued to walk while staring down at the floor. "I'm free," he added in slight disbelief. Suzaku then looked up when he heard a feminine voice calling out.
"Out of the way please! Look out below!" When he saw a pink haired girl coming down towards him while holding down her skirt, Suzaku quickly let go of his sack bag and held out his arms. The girl's weight and the force of the fall caused Suzaku to nearly lose balance so he ended up in a crouch while still holding the girl. Almost comically, her long, pink hair fell down just a few seconds after she had landed; making it look like a curtain of oink.
"Uh, are you alright?" Suzaku asked hesitantly. The girl quickly looked up, her eyes filled with regret and a bit of fear.
"I'm sorry! I wasn't aware that you were down here until I had leaped." Suzaku felt a small smile trying to work its way onto his lips but he fought it down (and failed) as he replied to the violet eyed girl.
"Well…don't worry! I wasn't expecting a girl to come falling out of the sky and into my arms, either!" (A/N: okay, sorry to interrupt, but does anyone feel like Suzaku just tried flirting with Euphie just right now!? Argh! I feel like strangling him! Okay, continue!) The girl looked at Suzaku with surprised violet eyes; looking slightly terrified for a moment.
"Oh, my," Suzaku looked down at the girl and let the small smile fall from his face.
"Huh? Is there something wrong?" The pink haired girl looked down at the ground for a moment before raising her head and smiling a bright smile at the brunette.
"Yes, there is something wrong!"
"Huuh!?" Suzaku couldn't really understand why the girl was smiling when there was something wrong.
"The truth is bad guys are chasing me, so considering the circumstances, could you help me, please?"
…
"We haven't introduced ourselves have we?" Suzaku then realized that they hadn't even though they had been walking for ta good fifteen minutes now. Though, instead of answering, Suzaku continued to look ahead and watch the world through his (rather cool) sunglasses *A/N: one has to admit, Suzaku has some badass sunglasses!*.
"My name is…Euphie!" Suzaku noted the slight hesitation before he turned towards the girl.
"Euphie?" Euphie then turned to look ahead with a slight blush crawling onto her face.
"Yes." Suzaku then took off his glasses when they stopped and turned fully towards the pinkette.
"My name's-"
"Don't tell me~!" Suzaku then gave her a confused look at the sudden interruption.
"Huh?"
Euphie smiled before saying, "It's because I already know it. You're a celebrity! Son of Prime Minister Genbu Kururugi; Private Suzaku Kururugi." At this, Suzaku turned away with a small but noticeable frown while feeling slightly betrayed.
"Hm…you lied before. There's no one chasing you at all, right?" He turned around when Euphie didn't answer.
He saw her a few feet away…talking to a cat.
"Meow? Meow, meow. Does the kitty's paw hurt?" She was on her knees and the cat hissed at her, but she didn't back away.
"Meow, meow, meow!" when she held out a finger, the cat sniffed it carefully; almost like it expected the appendage to bite him or something. After some meowing, Euphie was able to pick up the cat. The violet eyed Britannian then held the cat out to Suzaku. The green eyed boy smiled before holding out his finger. Without any hesitation, the dark gray cat bit the brunette.
"Ack!"
"Oh my!"
…
Lloyd drove the giant metal transport around while Cecile looked for any sign of Suzaku.
"We're running late. I hope he's still waiting for us," Lloyd said as he stopped the car and waited for the light to go green.
"Considering the charge, did they really release him?" The blue haired assistant asked. Lloyd turned to Cecile and gave her a closed eyed smile.
"Yes, they had no evidence. I'm sure they put him through the third degree because of that Infinite incident-huh?" Lloyd then stared out his window and saw a very familiar brunette with a rather familiar pinkette. "What? Why is he…?" Cecile widened her eyes as she came to a not-so-bad conclusion.
Could that possibly be L.L. or C.C. with him? Is he…on a date!?
…
Euphie tied up the cat's wounded leg in a small makeshift bandage. Afterwards, while the yellow eyed cat began to groom itself, Euphie turned back to Suzaku.
"Do you have trouble with cats?" At this Suzaku smiled and reached back for the injured cat.
"Heh, I like them just fine. However-" The gray cat immediately stopped grooming himself in order to hiss at the poor boy. Suzaku quickly withdrew his arm and smiled.
"The attraction isn't mutual."
Euphie then gave Suzaku a bright comforting smile. "I think unrequited love is the sign of a kind person. Oh!" The rather anti-Suzaku cat suddenly got and ran away from the two. As the two watched the cat go off, the private then remembered a question he had from earlier.
"Euphie…why did you tell me that lie when we met?" Euphie looked at him with a tilt to her head.
"Do you ask because you because your concerned about me?" Suzaku turned to look back at the sweet pink haired girl.
"Um, yeah, of course." Euphie then quickly got up and took Suzaku's arm.
"Good! Then you can accompany me some more!" the violet eyed girl pulled Suzaku to his feet and began to lead him towards nowhere in particular
"Come on it'll be fun!"
And with that the Britannian girl took off with the Japanese boy.
…
Suzaku and Euphie spent hours together, practically taking a tour of the Tokyo Settlement. It was about five o'clock in the afternoon when they began to slow down; not really realizing that Lloyd and Cecile had been following them the entire time.
"Suzaku, would you mind taking me to one more place, please?" Suzaku, with a smile on his face, quickly dropped his sack and bowed before Euphie.
"Your wish is my command, Milady. Where to?"
"Take me to Shinjuku." The Japanese boy felt his eyes widen at Euphie's request. Memories of the rundown orphanage that he had lived in for three years flew through Suzaku's mind.
With a firm look on her face Euphie said "Suzaku Kururugi, please escort me there."
…
L.L. was walking towards the library when a sight caught hold of his attention. He didn't know why he felt the need to look out the window but he did and was quite surprised. It looked like an average day, what with the students either leaving the school or going to their extracurricular activities. What had actually caught L.L.'s attention was a blonde Britannian boy. And not just any blonde Britannian boy; it was the blonde Britannian boy that served as the second Vice President of Ashford Academy. And he was kissing the redhead. Schneizel Raffiniert was kissing Kallen Stadtfeld; sucking her face seemed more like it. What also caught L.L.'s eye was that, a yard or two away from Schneizel and Miss. Stadtfeld was the crazy guy from back in Shinjuku. Alive and…dancing? He watched as the peach haired boy ran away from his line of sight and then L.L. realized that he was wearing Schneizel's clothes.
…
Schneizel wore an irritated look on his face as he dragged Kanon up onto one of the roofs of the school. When they were out of view from anyone who might decide to look up, the blonde haired Britannian swung up the immortal to face him.
"Are you insane? You can't go walking around!" Kanon gave an annoyed huff before walking towards one of the railings of the roof.
"Don't act strict with me. Or have you forgotten that I practically raised you? I never leave the school grounds so it's fine." The purple eyed boy lightly glared at Kanon's back.
"It's not fine. You can't do as you like; you don't belong here."
The blue eyed immortal stopped and tilted his head back to stare at the sky. "I don't belong anywhere." When Schneizel didn't say anything, Kanon merely smirked in triumph and continued to walk until he met with the railing. He then noticed a blue haired schoolgirl carve a plus sign into the brick wall. "What's wrong with her?" The still irritated Britannian then walked over to confirm his guess.
"I had ordered her to mark that wall every day. I want to see how long my Geass will last." Kanon tilted his head to the side.
"So…your Geass is to make anyone follow your command?" Schneizel nodded.
"Yes, but I can only use it once per person; I will just have to make sure not to waste my chance." The blonde boy didn't notice Kanon's hesitation until he heard him say that it was weird.
"Why would my Geass be weird?" The immortal merely shook his head.
"Don't listen to the ramblings of an old man. I am merely stating what I think, nothing that you should be worried about." Schneizel continued to stare at his immortal accomplice with a gaze that was trying to penetrate Kanon's deepest secrets. Too bad his Geass didn't work that way.
…
They were surrounded by little grave markers. Some had children's toys on them while others had food. There were even pictures of Japanese people taped to broken walls. Flowers and still burning candles littered the ground. Some people had carved Japanese characters on the ground, walls, and even candles; all wishing the dead luck on their journey to where ever the dead go. Euphie stared at her surroundings with sad eyes while Suzaku's face remained stoic.
"The Shinjuku Ghetto…ruined again. The residents were starting to return, too." The wind began to blow after Suzaku had said that; bringing with it the feeling of sad emptiness. Or at least that was the case until a rather snobbish voice floated towards the two.
"Man, they didn't use RG on the Elevens. I figured they wouldn't." When they looked up they saw two Britannian schoolboys taking pictures in front of a broken, Japanese statue.
"Hey, look! Those are marks from Hummer rounds! Get a clear shot of them!"
"Say 'cheese'! Got it. Okay, me next!" Then, suddenly, three Japanese men came running from behind some rubble. An especially loud one knocked the camera out of the overweight Britannian's hand.
"Get out of here, you damn Britannian bastards!" Euphie gasped lightly while Suzaku dropped his bag and ran towards the two groups.
"Stay here, Euphie."
Anyone could see that the schoolboys were frightened. "How dare a lowly Eleven speak like that-" The schoolboy didn't get far before the loudmouthed Japanese man yelled at him again.
"Don't call me an 'Eleven'! I'm Japanese!" Then the skinny, dorky schoolboy spoke up, though there was fear in his voice.
"Wrong! Y-you seem to forget that you people lost! You're nothing but a beaten dog!" The brown haired Japanese man then turned to the blue haired Britannian with a slight growl to his voice and clenched fist rising from his sides.
"You racist pig!" Just before the angry man could say or do anything else, Suzaku came running up to them.
"Stop! Please! No violence!" just when he was close enough, the main Japanese man swung his arm around, smacking Suzaku on his face and knocking the sunglasses off. Everyone at least lightly gasped when they recognized Suzaku for who he was.
"Are you Suzaku…Kururugi…? The guy who killed Clovis?"
"No, idiot; it was Infinite who killed him!"
"Che, this guy's nothing more than a slave. Big deal! You're an Honorary Britannian! Nobody cares. You sold your pride, your people, your soul, yet you call yourself Japanese!?" At this, Suzaku began to speak back.
"No! You're wrong! I-"
"I am not wrong!" the angry man yelled back; rudely interrupting Suzaku. "You stinking Britannian lapdog!" The man rushed towards Suzaku with his fist in the air. The Honorary Britannian felt his military training kick in and dodged the fist while grabbing the clenched hand. He then grabbed a fist full of the man's shirt and using the weight of the Japanese man's body to flip him over. Suzaku let his right leg rise into the air, trying to balance the force that he had just used and watched as the angry man landed a good five feet away and on his back. The other onlookers, both Japanese and Britannian, watched with open mouths; knowing that they could probably never do that.
"Stop, please!" The man that Suzaku just threw grunted in pain from his landing as he slowly got up. "I warned you. I've been trained for military combat. Don't make me fight against my own people." At this, the aching man snarled.
"Like hell we're your people!" then, one of the other Japanese men rolled his eyes and started to walk away.
"Come on! Just let it go." The other man followed behind the first and soon even the loudmouth left; but not before a few parting words.
"Lousy traitor." Suzaku didn't say anything; he merely continued to stare down at the ground with a stoic face. The only reason he looked up was when he heard his name being called. At first he thought it was L.L.'s exasperated yet worried voice but when he looked up, Suzaku realized that it was just Euphie. She was carrying his sack which he quickly unburdened her of.
"Oh my, are you okay?" Suzaku smiled as positioned the bag over his shoulder.
"Yeah, I'm fine."
"Well I'm not okay!" The two turned to look back towards the Britannian schoolboys; one was actually picking up the remains of his camera. "Just look at my Prime G and my LX4!" the other Britannian also turned on Suzaku.
"Why did you wait!? Damn it! Some Honorary Citizen you are!" Suzaku said nothing and just stared at them with wide eyes.
"Why'd you let 'em go!? You should've killed 'em! What are a few dead Elevens to a guy like you!? Who do you think's been taking care of you all these years, anyway!?" Before the verbal assault could go any further, Euphie stepped around Suzaku and slapped the shit out of the fat schoolboy.
"I'll not allow you to insult this man any longer, you oaf!" Suzaku and the other schoolboys stared at the pinkette in surprise.
…
"Don't you think that your opponent is too strong to beat with just Geass?"
Schneizel stared out the window of his room. He watched as L.L. and C.C. had a small picnic on the green lawn while he felt Kanon's gaze on his back.
"Is it good to be strong?" Schneizel replied.
…
Suzaku looked off into the distance, imagining that L.L. and C.C. were smiling at him.
"Is it bad to be weak? Back then…when I was ten…the world seemed like a terribly sad place. A world without any hope at all. Starvation…disease…filth…decay…racism…constant war and terrorism…living in a never ending cycle of hate. The cycle must be broken. Somebody has to do it." Suzaku turned his gaze away from the two smiling images and instead stared at the ground. "Of course it's doubtful that the one who does do it will make all the bad things go away.
…
Schneizel watched as L.L. and C.C. began to pack their things; Sayoko walking out to help them.
"I'm not so arrogant as to think that I can solve all the world's problems, and so…"
…
Suzaku glared at the ground.
"No one should lose more of the people they love. At least a world without war." Euphie stared at Suzaku in awe.
"And how would you do it?"
…
When Schneizel made sure that both L.L. and C.C. had made it inside, he turned to the chess board that had been given to him as a gift from L.L. "It's simple. When somebody wins, the fighting will end." Kanon tilted his head as he continued to stare at Schneizel. ****
"Somebody?"
…
"I don't know how you would do it…but if I stopped trying, then my father's death would have been in vain." Suzaku raised the broken watch; also remembering that the locket was still around his neck, holding L.L. and C.C. close to his heart.
"The prime minister's death?" Euphie asked cautiously.
When Suzaku spoke, his voice was laced in anger. "My own father died, because he had to sacrifice his life in that war!" Before anymore could be said, an explosion rocked the ground that the two stood on. When they turned, they saw that the stadium that was a mile or two away had smoke rising from within it. Before Suzaku could even twitch, a large metal transport vehicle screeched to a halt near them. Cecile opened the door with a wham!
"Suzaku!" Both Suzaku and Euphie ran towards the vehicle.
"Miss. Cecile!" Suzaku could clearly see Lloyd who sat with Cecile trying to get past him; his signature smirk already on his face.
"It's dangerous here, get in!"
"The Pure Bloods are having a silly squabble; better get out of here," Lloyd rolled his eyes over the fact that the Pure Bloods were acting like children before he smirked. "Oh and by the way, what a shame about your requital, because now you'll have to work for me, again~!" Before Lloyd could go back inside, Suzaku quickly caught his attention.
"Wait! Please! Isn't this an opportunity to gather battle data for the Lancelot?" Cecile gave a light gasp while Lloyd turned back towards Suzaku with an interested look on his face. Euphie then walked closer and lightly touched Suzaku's arm.
"Suzaku?"
"I'm sorry, Euphie. We have to say good-bye here." The pinkette's eyes widened in surprise. "I need to do this. I think I can stop them with the Lancelot. I have to try; I must!"
For L.L. and C.C…
…
Suzaku quickly shot a Slash Harken into the ground before the leading Sutherland.
"Stop it! You're all Britannian soldiers!" As the green eyed boy drew in the Slash Harken, he heard the downed Knightmare say something along the lines of "advance weapon" and "Lancelot". Suzaku sat and listened as the lead, attacking Sutherland pilot began to talk.
"What business does the Special Core have here? Interlopers will die!" Suzaku activated his MVS Swords before shouting "No!"
"I can't stand by and ignore this senseless battle!" Suzaku jumped when he saw the oncoming Slash Harkens. "We're on the same side!" When he saw more coming, the Honorary Britannian started doing some acrobatic moves; dodging the Slash Harkens while making sure to cut them off so they wouldn't be useable again. When he landed, Suzaku blocked an attack from one of the Sutherland's lance like weapon and dropped the actual Sutherland to the floor when he kicked its legs out from under it using the Lancelot's land spinners. When another came at him, Suzaku used an MVS sword to slice the lance in half and cut the entire arm of the Sutherland completely off. When he disengaged from that Knightmare, Suzaku maneuvered the Lancelot towards the downed Knightmare frame and noticed that there was another Sutherland but instead of trying to kill him, it stood by and protected the targeted Knightmare.
"Still wanna fight?" Suzaku watched as the Knightmares stepped away except for one. Suzaku felt hope for this situation. "You understand then!" his hopes were dashed, though, when the opposing Sutherland told them that he was using a Chaos Mine. Just as Kewell, the man piloting the Sutherland, threw the mine into the air, Suzaku heard a familiar voice.
"No! Stop it now!" Suzaku, barely thinking, moved the Lancelot in front of Euphie and activated his Blaze Luminous Shields. And just in time too. The bullets jumped off the shields and protected Euphie, and the two other Sutherlands from harm. When the mine was out of ammo and fell to the ground, Suzaku was surprised to see Euphie striding out from behind him.
"Everyone! Lower your weapons at once! In my name, I command you!" Before Suzaku could ask what Euphie was talking about, she answered his unspoken question.
"I am Euphemia li Britannia of the Empire and the Third Princess of the Royal Family." Suzaku felt as if he had been slapped and softly whispered "Euphie" under his breath.
"I am assuming command here, now fall back!" Almost immediately, all of the Sutherlands bent to one knee and raised an arm over their chest.
"We are truly sorry, Your Highness!" Suzaku watched as Euphemia turned towards him as he used the tow line to get down to ground level. He quickly ran forward and yelled "My Lady!" When he was right before her, Suzaku stared at the ground.
"I had no idea who you were, please forgive me Princess." Euphemia gave Suzaku a firm gaze before replying.
"Suzaku, you and I bare similar deep pain. You have lost your father as I have lost my brother. Will you let me help you on your quest to ensure that no one ever again has to suffer the loss of a loved one on the battlefield?" Realizing what she was asking, Suzaku too dropped to one knee and placed an arm over his chest.
"Yes, I'm…unworthy of your kindness." Though Suzaku couldn't see it, Euphemia's face fell a little at his response about being unworthy.
…
Cecile watched with wide eyes as Princess Euphemia was led out and away from where the small skirmish took place.
Huh…I guess I was wrong about thinking that she was either L.L. or C.C. But…was Suzaku on a date or not?
…
"I heard what you did, Euphemia. You shouldn't be so reckless." Euphie let her head fall a little in embarrassment.
"I know, sister. Forgive me, but-"
"You will address me as Viceroy here, Sub-Viceroy Euphemia. Because we are sisters, we must follow a stricter protocol," Viceroy Cornelia said, cutting Euphemia off.
"Yes, I understand." Cornelia smiled towards her younger sister before turning to an assistant that stood off to the side.
"Now then, give me your report." The man put his right hand over his heart before answering.
"Yes. My Lady, the first order of business is a welcome party we have arranged for Your Highness and then-" The man immediately stopped when the Viceroy of Area 11 pulled out her gun and aimed it at his head.
"Sloppy, senile, corrupt…WHERE IS INFINITE!? I WANT THE ENEMY OF THE EMPIRE CAUGHT! GET INFINITE!"**
…
L.L. and C.C. both raised their heads and stared at the front of the class; both their eyes were wide in surprise, awe, and happiness. They didn't realize that there were some people that were staring at the student up in front of the class while others were staring right at them. Namely Schneizel Raffiniert.
"I'll be joining the student body here at Ashford Academy, starting today. My name is Suzaku Kururugi. It's a pleasure to meet you."
Su…za...ku…?

Comments:
Yes I know you all love me so much that you want to strangle me for leaving it right there but! Just to clear things up! I am dead tired! And I still need to start the next chapter of Code: Cat and work on chapter two of Code: Wolf and re-read Code: Genie before the New Year! I want to post them on the thirtieth or the thirty first. Right now it's the thirtieth…ugh… the things I do for yaoi!
****Okay, this scene is very symbolic! I never really noticed it before but, in the episode, Lelouch knocks down the black king with the white knight…THAT'S SO FREAKING WEIRD! Considering the ending of R1 and R2, it's like Lulu's physic and doesn't even realize it!
**At this scene, Cornelia looked completely batshit insane. No lie.
NEXT TIME! L.L., C.C. and the whole School's reaction to Suzaku!
REVIEW POR FAVOR!
