Nothing or Forever

Chapter 0.5: A completely different story.


A/N: Okay! Sorry for the wait and don't hate me...this is a prolog again to set up the ripple effect. Please don't kill me.

*Duck underneath rotten vegetable thrown at me*

Chrono Clock Work is next!

*Booo! Post another Code Geass fanfic already!*

Disclaimer: I own nothing or else I'll do an alternate reality Code Geass instead...not R3...unless R3 turn out to be good.


I ask myself every day. What would happen if Nunnally live? If Suzaku and I gone our separate ways. How will the JSDF or in this case the JLF react to the son of the Prime Minister being killed by him?

What butterfly effect did I cause?

For starter, the late Prime Minister was herald as a martyr and the killer has a bounty on his head...her head. The entire government stature was in disarray, but his death kept Japan fighting. At first, Britannia was winning most of the battle as their Knightmare lead blitzkrieg wipe out most major military installations. Spar Narita, which was well hidden. Then, once they pushed inland, that when everything came to a screeching halt.

The Britannian has become far too arrogant in their KMFs capability that they're no longer supported by infantry or other heavy armor, leaving them open for attacks. It turns out, the fearsome frames are fragile to 50 cals. and explosive. The old Glasgow's have trouble maneuvering around rugged terrain, limited range, and the newfound tactics against them.

Ambush after ambush, entire squadrons of Glasgow's is eliminated with the expected strategy of the Miracle Worker. Then the military finally snap to their senses and have air support and infantry to defend their new weapons. It was too late when a cargo full of Knightmares were captured during a daring operation to seize a transport vessel. The JSDF didn't have the resource to reverse engineer it. Thus the logical conclusion is to send it to an ally of convenience, The Chinese Federation.

The Eunuchs knew if Japan falls, Britannia will control 70% of the world Sakuradite supply. Those greedy pigs were at a stalemate on how to handle the situation and only funded the crumbling army of Japan with arms and armament. Then when a nice bargaining chip in the form of Glasgow's and a proposal reach their shores.

Once the decision was made, China mobilize their forces just as the last remnant of the Japanese military and large conglomeration of civilians turn militias were on its last leg, pushed to the western shores, low on ammo and manpower, yet highly motivated as brave men and women attacked the Britannian in banzai charges. In one of these charges, Josui Kusakabe, a high ranking officer met his end in a hail of gunfire as he brandishes his katana, yelling Nippon Banzai.

Behind the scene, Atsushi Sawazaki, self-proclaimed, replacement Prime Minister promise Japan and its resources to China.

Thus end the conquers of Japan and transition into the China-Britannian war, the war was a bloody affair and lasted two years until a ceasefire was called. A war that took more lives of innocents then soldiers. It was estimated that 10 of millions were killed and the scar of war scared the country to this very day. Both side seesaw from left to right, ranging from destructive naval battle, skies filled with the clashes of fighter jets, and ground battle as intense as the last World War. At one point, Chinese and Japanese forces fraught floor to floor, room to room against Britannian forces in the outskirt of Tokyo and Kyoto.

I remember a year into the war, China unveils its line of Knightmares from the Gun-Ru and reproduction of the Glasgow called, Zhànshì(Warrior). IT help even out the battlefield as inexpensive Gun-Ru its firepower kept the enemies surpass and the Zhànshì race ahead to take the unfortunate unit by surprise.

So much have happened within the two years over a single island, it will take me a long time to explain all the details. For example, Li Xingke, an up and coming general was able to push past and besiege Tokyo until the 2nd prince forces him to retreat.

The Chinese Federation by the end of the war was able to secure southern Japan, from Kyushu and up to the Hida Mts. Mt. Fuji was in striking distance of the artillery. They were also able to hold half of Hokkaido with the Hidika ranges and Kitami Mts. separating China and Britannia claim. The rest belong to the Britannia Empire. To this day, the boundary between the two factions is heavily defended and tense. No one is allowed to cross without permission.

My dear onii-chan, Clovis was sent to control, no he force his way to being Viceroy of Area 11 with Tokyo being the Capital. The area under 'Japan's' control is run by the new Prime Minister, Atsushi Sawazaki with its capital in Nagasaki.

Japan was divided and the Chinese Federation once saw as a savior, eventually became as authoritative and cruel as the slave driver in Britannia held territory. Sawazaki, not surprisingly, didn't care about his people, he cared for power and wealth. The corrupt bastard handed Japan to the Eunuch to control as he sits in his newly built mansion in Beijing.

A leader who isn't in his own country and isn't thinking of it people wellbeing. What would I give to kill him myself. At least Clovis put in the effort to act like he cares.

The differences between China held territory and Britannia is that the China still allow religious practices and Japanese culture, along with allowing Japanese to still call themselves Japanese instead of Elevens. On the other hand, the condition is far worse in Chinese territory then Britannia. Since Britannia want to make its homeland as a whole wealthier while China higher up want to drain the money and resources to benefit themselves. Britannia let numbers take care of their own people while China takes absolute control. It very hard to find which one the lesser of two evils.

The turn of event causes a third faction to rise up. Angry at the betrayal, many civilian and soldiers turn their guns on both the Chinese Federation and Japanese loyal to the other Empire across the ocean. Along with Britannia and those that join the Honorary Britannian system are treated just the same.

The 3rd faction is the rebels, insurgents, freedom fighters, nationalists who like nothing more but to see the soil free of foreign power. Odds are insurmountable when they're resisting not one but two superpowers.

The JLF, the Blood of the Samurai and various other terrorist cells are fighting a hopeless struggle. It will take a miracle to win against such unfair odds. Then again, when is anything ever fair?

I lost Nunnally, but that doesn't mean I'll give up. It means I won't hold back. As long as my white knight stands by me, I will stand by her ideas and my method. I will tear both Empire to pieces once I crave out my army, my nation to remake this world.

Yes, This is my vow to you, little sister. I hope you're happy with our mother. I will destroy the world and from the ashes is the world you envision but never live to see.

Well then, shall we begin?


A/N: The reason why I took so long was because I scrapped chapter 1 and did world building. What I mean by that is I originally going to drop a timeline for you to read then lead up to what Lulu and Suzaku are up to at Ashford. Then I realize how boring timelines are so I have Luluko narrate the butterfly effect.

I will reveal more of what happened in the Chinese-Britannian War as the fanfic progress. A lot of things will be different and alter because of 3 major events.

So leave a review because like Alternate Rebellion, I'm changing the stories right off the bat!

Make you wonder how much of a canon change Time Zero going to be over at Demon Child.

And this is my personal best! Wrote all this in one day from start to editing! I'm so proud of myself. That why it so damn short.

Review or death! No really, favs, follows, and reviews.
