Author's Note: Haha chapter 15 yehey! I can't believe that I can write something this long. Thanks for your continuous support!
The last chapter was not funny, I think... but I guess it will be significant to the story. But I'll make up for it…
My other notes are at the end, so for now, enjoy!
There would be no Mao terrorism, I promise
The couple survived their first night, now they have to survive their first day: It was exactly 12am when the twins started their pestering demand for food again, and also at 3am and eventually, 5:30am. Of course they wouldn't wake up at exactly the same time; but if one cries, the other cries as well, and if they cry, the couple will wake again.
But patience never left them; CC was always the one to wake up first for feeding, then Lelouch will get up shortly after to make them burp or change their diaper. They hardly talked to each other, except for "pas it to me" or "be gentler to them" statements; each was absorbed by one's own train of thoughts: when will these stop? How can I sleep? How about tomorrow?
It was 6am when Lelouch finally said something more significant "CC, I think the first think we should do tomorrow is to find a nanny and buy a bigger bed."
She nodded her head "I guess that's right, you still need to finish highschool don't you? But why a bigger bed? You slept for weeks on the couch before right?"
He got up and wore a shirt, opening his laptop he answered her "It is a big possibility that any of the two might fall off the bed, it would be best if they sleep between us. Cheese-kuns are not enough..." He began browsing through the internet "I have to find the other members of the Kyoto House and gain their support" changing the topic.
"You don't need to rush you know? You should not race against time when it's not your enemy." She played with the two's feet again "We should find a nanny first- Sayoko is not enough-how about one from the Black Knights?"
He continued his work and replied without facing her "That would be dangerous, if you live in the headquarters, the council and especially Suzaku will be suspicious, and if I bring one in this dorm, she may find out about my identity."
The cheese-kun's were being placed by CC around the babies "Lelouch, Kallen would be perfect but she is also a student, I think we have to consult Milly, maybe she knows one."
"Yeah, Milly knows the best maids…"
"Hey Lelouch, not to spoil the mood or anything, I'm just worried…speaking of the Black Knights, are you planning to attack once you gain the full support of the Kyoto group? I want to know because I have to prepare for that."
He chuckled "I won't make any move for now; an offense is disadvantageous for us. She is waiting for us to attack her at the headquarters where she concentrated her forces, and she already planned ahead. Also, she isn't calling for any reinforcements knowing that we'll attack them as soon as they arrive. .Since Zero is a counter attacker and uses guerilla tactics, she was not making any moves that will allow us to act against her… She is making Zero impatient…but that won't work to me."
"So… what are you planning?"
"Something long-term but will be effective, perfect for letting the two grow a little first…I'll explain it to the Black Knights soon."
So he told her his plan.
"Haha that's quite amusing…I'm sure Cornelia will go nuts when you do that."
"Yes, she surely will be" He yawned as he turned off his computer, it was 6;30 and he felt sleepy again after the brainwork. He then lay down on his couch, tucking himself in his blanket. He said facing her "CC, do you have any more concerns? This will be the best time to talk about everything, later I'll go school…but if there's none I'll sleep again…."
She looked at the children with a somewhat sad expression "Actually Lelouch…there is, and it's something I found troubling… I can't really explain it even to myself, Lelouch I…"

Nanny

The next morning Milly found that all the school staff and security dead, and all video cameras were disabled during the day when CC gave birth. Both the council and the investigators were baffled with this: How can a single man kill them all and attack CC? Many students and witnesses were interviewed but they offered no help, there was also no any other substantial evidence except the blood in Lelouch's bathroom that cannot identify the criminal either. Lelouch was very frustrated by failing to kill him and Suzaku was guilty, believing that he disposed of him perfectly, was also left wondering why that deranged man read his mind. Then he remembered; he last saw him in the infirmary…
They quickly headed there to find Mao. But he was not there…
Lelouch, upon realizing the grave danger his family may face…again, darted through the halls with a knife "Don't worry about me, you should just look for a way to the guy, I'm sure he's still weak by now.
Fear can be sensed from Kallen's voice "Milly, I think we should suspend the class for now…"
Of course, Milly has the power to suspend classes and even fire the principal, but she took the matter in her own hands "NO!! There would be classes!"
Rivalz shrugged "B-But-"
"Milly…"
The president stood up and picked up her walkie-talkie(which was actually connected to every part of the school) "EVERYONE, all club activities are suspended, find a-Suzaku, what did he looked like?"
"Ow, Arthur stop it!-what Milly? The looks? He has white hair and he looks… retarded-"
Milly continued her speech "BRING EVERYONE WITH WHITE HAIR AND LOOKS RETARDED IN THE COUNCIL'S ROOM!! The reward for every guy you bring is a kiss from…Lelouch Lamperouge!!" She turned the device off and pulled a thumbs-up to the council "This is the best way! I'm sure that killer is not far away, he's hurt right?" She defensively reasoned seeing haughty eyes.
…
So when Lelouch was halfway "home" (after a considerable amount of time), he was blocked by dozens of fangirls…and fanboys too, while the council room was being filled with dudes ranging from an elderly gardener to the school principal.
CC, Aurora, Eirian, Nunally!!
And he was buried under the squeals.
CC was cannot stop thinking about their conversation that morning, she just stepped out of the dorm with Nunally and Sayoko, who carried the sleeping twins, exposing them to the sun's warmth. Yet, an eerie feeling was creeping in her spine since she went out…
"Um…goodmorning.." A soft, kind voice greeted the girls.
But they froze in fear "CC, Sayoko…w-what's g-going on?" Nunally was also feeling weird.
The boy continued walking towards them, his shoulders were hunched, and his clothes were all bloody…
Looking at CC's eyes he said….
"Miss, I'm sorry if I startled you, but where I am now? What is this Ashford Academy?"
"M-Mao!" She stepped back and covered Sayoko, Nunally and the twins "What are you trying to pull!? Sayoko, Nunally, run with the twins inside! Call Lelouch!"
Sayoko nodded and followed her instruction, but deep inside she wanted to fight Mao too. Nunally kept asking Sayoko what happened as they closed the doors.
"YOU KNOW ME!?" The boy gasped and whimpered "Y-you know me? I-I thought that I was alone, I can't remember who I am…so please tell me-"
She hurriedly picked up the grass scissors and swung it to Mao's head but he luckily evaded after tripping. He cannot stand up in fear and he just peed in his pants. "Pl-please don't kill me!" He covered his face and cried "At least tell me who I am beforeI die!"
CC was shocked to hear those… but she still kicked him in the face and stepped on him. But she saw his eyes; they're full of innocence and sincerity, almost like when he was still a child, she believed him…
But she kicked his stomach; he shouted in pain….she could see suffering in his eyes…BUT she hit him again and again…just to make sure.
"Do you hear voices out of nowhere?" She asked him sternly.
"You mean my conscience?" He was groaning.
Just as I thought…the geass is only active if it's engrave in one's memory…
Then she offered her hand and helped him get up, smiling at him "Don't worry I won't kill you, I'll tell you what I know…Mao is your name, go to China, or Chinatown, or a Chinese restaurant because you're Chinese, that's it."
Happiness returned to his eyes, CC was confused. He was just like when she first met him; pure and simple-minded. She was supposed to hate him and end his existence for his own sake, but her feelings of being a mother flowed into her. "Is it really the best that I abandoned him? Can't he be forgiven?" she asked to herself again, after a hundred times asking the same question for years.
He caught her attention again "B-But how about my parents?"
She replied emotionlessly "They're dead, you killed them when you were six with a gallon and gasoline and a single match."
…
CC expected that he'll be rattled but he didn't: he cried and cried like a child "Mommy!! Daddy!! WAAAAAA!!"
She slapped him "Move on! Get out of here you're making me sick!!" He calmed down and his kind voice came back again "S-sorry miss…"
But he quickly hugged her legs and pleaded with such a poor face"Please take me in! I'll do ANYTHING without pay!! I can work; clean stuff, cook food, chop wood, catch mice, baby-sit-"
Did he say baby-sit? This...is a good way to at least save him…
"How do you know you can do those things?" She quickly asked him.
"I-I felt I might have done those before…" he responded politely.
I should tell this to Lelouch, I hope he'll understand
...
Mao can be our perfect slave hahahaha!!
She laughed a little to herself and her eyes shone like diamonds waving to an approaching boy…
Lelouch was breathing heavily as he ran towards her; he was still a bit far away, he was rather slow…As he was nearing, CC can see his half-buttoned shirt, messed hair and the kiss marks around his face. CC frowned.
He rested his hands, supporting his body, on his weak knees, facing the ground as sweat trickled down from his cheeks. His vision was blurred so he didn't recognize Mao right away.
"CC I'm glad you're safe- CC, DON'T THINK SOMETHING WRONG! Some girls chased me a-and I'm sure I DIDN'T LET A SINGLE GUY KISS ME!!"
CC cannot stop thinking about what they talked about last night:
She looked at the children with a somewhat sad expression "Actually Lelouch…there is, and it's something I found troubling… I can't really explain it even to myself, Lelouch I…I don't know how I'll feel for being a mother…"
"What do you mean?"
"I don't know if I'm still immortal, or if the two of them are also immortals, right now I can feel that they have something no other children possess, I just don't know it yet..."
"Of course they're special!" He reassured her with his usual proud tone "I'm their father and you're their mother. Who could expect something less? About being immortal, I guess I'll live long enough to know that. We don't have to know it now, we'll always keep them safe anyway."
"Yes, that's right… I'll make sure of it."
I hope you liked this chapter, Please REVIEW
You might have noticed that I barely used words like san, kun, oniisama , something like those…because the characters are not Japanese, that's it.
Those fan-girls... how dare they do that to our LULU!(well...I'm a fan-girl myself but I won't do something like that...I guess...) Haha Lulu was supposed to be the one to kiss them but they got the wrong interpretation haha
ALSO, HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY MAMA, I MISS YOU!! Happy mother's day to all mothers around the world, I'll pray for all of you, God Bless!!
Personal message:
I really thank you for the reviews; they help cheer me up, because I've been pretty sad lately due to personal problems and find it hard to write something funny
