A/N: Like the title? It matches perfectly what's going to happen in this chapter. Yep, you guessed it, a battle scene's going to occur! Now, I don't have the best battle scene writing, so if you can help perfect it, then AWESOME. TEACH ME BRO! XD
Now then, without further ado, let's get going. Z02-Z Avalon Lance MKII Albion, now launching! (That's Kyon's Knightmare Frame.) (I'm still referring Kyon as Kyon instead of Michael, because Haruhi refuses to believe he's someone else. Until later XD)
"No, it's on the couch. I managed to trick you. Oh, hey, come on, it's just a small joke!" He tried to defend himself, but I'm going to kill him. When I was just about to hit his head, his earpiece rang a ringtone. Mikuru jumped up and said, "That's Eye's Wing, by Access, used in Code Geass R1's last 2 episodes!" How did she know that...? =_='
Kyon raised his eyebrows, and then said, "Report." Apparently, he was talking to people with the earpiece. His look turned worried after a few minutes. "A squadron? Coming here? Alright, prepare yourselves, and meet them in the sky. I'll get the Goddess her Knightmare Frame. Buy me some time, would you? Thanks." He then pressed a button. He said, "Looks like another fight is going to happen. Haruhi, you can come with me. I need to get you your Knightmare. Now come on!" He grabbed his tie, putted on his cape, and grabbed my hand, which made me blush a little, and went outside with me.
A few minutes later, I was on the plane again, speeding towards Mount Fuji. He soon stopped. Kyon exited the plane last, turning it into its mobile mode. "We have to proceed on foot now." He said. "We don't have much time, so let's hurry!" He started to run. So did I. By the way, he runs a bit faster than me now. I guess he DID train hard. Not that I was saying he wasn't! I mean, he looks pretty strong now.
We soon arrived at a pair of iron doors. There was a panel which Kyon was tapping keys on. Soon, the doors opened. He waved his hand, and gestured to go in. I ran in straight. I looked behind me to see him charging past me, and suddenly stopping. I arrived to him moments later, out of breath when he was breathing normally. He said, "There it is...The Athena Blaze." I looked in his direction, and widened my eyes.
It was a robot similar to Kyon's, except it was sliver with bits of blue, along with a different head, and the chest. He walked towards it with me, hand by hand, which again made me blush. Why does he do that all the time? He said, "Even if your memories haven't returned, The Knightmare Frame...Well, you should know how to pilot it. The moment you see the cockpit, and touch it, you'll see." I walked faster to there. I was admiring my choice, or the old me's choice. It looked pretty new and really clean. Kyon walked towards a panel and started to tap keys on it, muttering, "Luminous Core is 100 % functional...no systems are malfunctioning...weaponry systems are full and functional...energy wings are charged...all systems are in standby." He then turned to me, and handed me a weird key shaped like a USB. "There will be a password, but this is your key to turn it on. Here," Kyon handed me the key. He then went and pressed a button. Suddenly, the cockpit open, and the Knightmare, turned its cockpit entrance to me. I then opened a gate, jumped into the seat, which pulled back toward the Knightmare. The lights then turned on. I was a little panicky, but Kyon's voice came in a speaker. "Don't worry, I can help. Now insert the key at the jack-in." I saw a place where the key could go in, above a handle. I inserted it, and an interface lit up, saying, "X-50 Athena Blaze MKII Nine Elements: For Britannia." Then a password screen came up. Now what password would I use...Ah!
I typed in, "AlESPTT", standing for Aliens, Esper, and Time Travelers. Sure enough, it logged on. Then, it was loading. After a moment or two, two more interfaces came up, one being radar, another being the status of the Knightmare, and the one already on turned into a targeting screen with weaponry stats. I'm guessing those are weapons? Interesting...a claw that uses radiation surges, a giant spear-axe which edge uses the one Kyon's swords use, and a shield that's formed from energy. Oh, and energy wings. Cool.
"Are you done?" I asked through the mike. "Not quite. I need to attach the energy filler and secure and turn on the cockpit ejection system. But, you can test your claw while it happens." Then, a bunch of metal dummies popped out of nowhere. I assumed my left hand controlled the claw. I rotated the orb, and pressed down on the button on the handle. I managed to fire off a...small round of radiation toward a dummy, but it missed. I grimaced. This is going to take some time...
"Wow, that's certainly surprising. 104 Dummies destroyed?"
Kyon was somewhat surprised at the score I got for killing the dummies with the rounds. I now know how to use a Slash Harken, which was that triangular thingy Kyon shoots to kill or disable an enemy Knightmare Frame. I can also use different shapes of rounds with the claw when shooting, and grabbing a dummy with it to burst it to flames, and end with a bang. My polearm, which was what Kyon called it, was much easier to control than the claw, as you rotated both buttons to swing, rotate one left and other in front to dash and spin, etc. The energy wings are going to be tested now, as everything is complete. Kyon's Knightmare, the Avalon Lance, came too, waiting. Apparently, the battle's getting worse. He's now inserting brand new energy filler into both mine and his Knightmare.
"Alright then, energy filler placed. All systems are normal, rejection signal weak, human-machine synchronization is on, interface at 100 % capacity, Weaponry systems are full and loaded. All systems are prepared. Now then, Haruhi," Kyon said, looking up. "Go first, I'll be there. Test the energy wings. Don't fly too far. Ready?"
I gulped. This was it. The first time I would fly the machine. So many things can go wrong...No, Haruhi! You're a Knight of Rounds, a commander at that. You can do this. I inhaled, and then exhaled. I then said, "I'm...ready." Kyon smiled. "Athena Blaze T.B.H.K Nine Elements, prepared to launch."
"Activating M.E. Boost. Athena, NOW LAUNCH!" The wheels at the bottom started to move, and we started to move. Now, it was fly or die. I increased speed, and prepared to activate wings. In 3, 2, 1...GO!
I pushed the ignition lever to max, and wings of red energy flew out of some sockets. I blinked, and then smiled. I'm flying! But, it was sort of floating, too...Oh well. Now then...I increased altitude. I suddenly rushed up to the sky. Then, I saw another weapon functioning. Energy Wing Bolt? Let's see...I rotated the buttons in opposite direction, and clicked.
My wings spread out, and started to shoot small shards of energy. It looked...pretty badass. I wonder what happens if I..."Whatcha thinkin' about, Princess?" The Knightmare suddenly said. I jumped. Wait, this Knightmare can talk? "Of course I can! Of course, you did forget, so I can't blame you. My name's Athena. Hey, which do you prefer, Haruhi or Syra?" I blinked. "Well..." I said, mulling the thought over. "I guess you can call me both if you want, but I would prefer Haruhi." Athena replied happily - at least, it sounded like she was - "Okay! So, you ready?" I put my game face on. It's time to bring it to them!
"Hey, aren't forgetting someone here?" Kyon said suddenly. I turned my Knightmare back towards the mountain to see Kyon's Knightmare, the Avalon Lance, come out. He spreads his energy wings, and in a second, he was here. "Now then, let's go. Avalon, commence operation!" I nodded. "Athena, Commence Operation." Athena said, "Roger that! All systems are prepared. M.E. Boost, and Energy Wing system, prepared. Launch?" Suddenly, it felt like me and Kyon synced, and said it at the same time: "LAUNCH."
In a few moments, we came in sight of the battle zone. It looked like it was in air only. That's a good thing. Now then..."Increase energy wing speed by 10%." "Understood." Athena said. I got faster Kyon now, but he still flew faster. "We're almost there; don't rush." I pouted, and then suddenly, I got a perfect idea. "Hey Kyon, listen..."
"Got it? It's perfect, right?" I finished telling him my plan. He sighed, "Yes, you're right. It will work perfectly, but that means perfect timing is required." I then said, "That's not necessary. I just need to be able to destroy half of them, and then it'll still work. "He paused for a minute."Alright, that works too. Well then, you ready?" I smiled. "No shit, Sherlock. 3...2...1...GO!"
We then separated from each other, I heading straight into the enemy, while Kyon took another route there. I increased the speed to maximum, and rushed forward. The enemy Knightmare saw me in just a few minutes. "What the-" was all they managed to say before I burnt them to a crisp. I then proceed upwards, then preparing my Radiant Surge Cannon. I targeted the enemy, and destroyed them. Perfect. Nearly half was gone with one shot. "Kyon, now!" I said. I heard a grunt, before he turned off communications. Soon, I heard this outside. "HEAR ME, MILLEFORE!"
"I AM MICHAEL VI BRITANNIA, 1ST PRINCE TO BRITANNIA, AND THE BOSS OF VONGOLA PHLEXUS. SINCE YOU HAVE TRIED TO ATTACK US WITH MALICE, THEN YOU ALL SHALL DIE! ALL HAIL BRITANNIA!" Then everyone cheered, "All hail Britannia!" repeatedly. His Knightmare was in position. "Now then...your divine punishment...IS DEATH. NOW DIE!" and fire his cannon, the VARIS MKII Cannon, which was a specially designed cannon, built to destroy enemy Knightmare Frames in one blow. At least, looking at the battlefield, that's what it did. Kyon then proceeded to say, "All Knights! Charge forward and destroy every single one of them! Leave no Knightmare unscathed!" They all immediately replied, "Yes, Your Highness!" and charged forward, swords and Slash Harkens ready to fire, along with any long-range weapon. He then asked for me to communicate in a private channel. I accepted, and smiled. "So? How did I do for a first time?" He slightly inclined his head."Better than most, but that's because this isn't your first time piloting. So I can't really judge you." I "Hmph"ed. I guess that's fine for a compliment. "Now then, ready for the finale?" I grinned. Oh, I can't wait.
Then, Kyon and I dashed towards the mothership of the enemy. We prepared for this finale. We then raised our Knightmare's arms imperiously, and fired the Hadron Cannon II, a new model based on Kyon's father's first Knightmare, the Gawain. We managed to obliterate the rest of the remaining forces with devastating power. Of course, the Knights of The Round helped out too, dashing each enemy quickly before going to the next one. Very efficient, but not fast enough. Soon, we gathered together. Kyon then went to an open channel. "Now then, everyone done well in defend the area. Thank you for your efforts, all is dismissed. Please repair your Knightmare if needed, understand? Thank you." and said to me, "Come, Princess." and got ready to fly forward, towards our house. I smiled. "Right. Now then, Z02-Z Avalon Lance MKII Albion, prepare for launch."
He then said, "Athena Blaze T.B.H.K Nine Elements, preparing to launch." We then said simultaneously, "ACTIVATING M.E. BOOST. KNIGHTMARES, LAUNCH!"
We all then sped towards our respective places, except me, because I was following Kyon. We soon were there, descending onto the road with the wheels put down. We technically "drove" there, in other words. Once we reached it, he got out, and said, "I need to configure Athena to be able to turn into Mobile Mode. Come out." I nodded. He turned Avalon into an earpiece while I got out of the Knightmare. He then jumped up, and went inside my Knightmare. A few minutes later, he was done. He said, "Say "Athena, Mobile Mode" when you want it to park. It's an earpiece, like mine. But you can turn it into another form later. For now let's go." I nodded. I did exactly what he said, which was to turn it into Mobile Mode. Once I did, I followed Kyon to his house again.
Once I entered his house, I suddenly started. It was as if someone else completely took over my body and mind, and bent it to her...wait, her? While I was mulling over this, I didn't notice Kyon smirk, then sip his tea in content. However, I did notice what he muttered: "Syra, that's not the best way to come back." I blinked. "Huh?" I asked him. Syra...the "other" me? "What do you mean?" He looked at me, a sparkle in his eyes. "Exactly what I mean, though you'll just have to figure out the meaning yourself." He said, mysteriously and cryptically. I sighed. "You've changed...so much over 3 years..."
He just chuckled. "I didn't change. Knowledge changed."
A/N: Now, there's probably another type of Fanfic I want to write, so I'll try my best to keep both Fanfic ongoing. As for people who AAed me, my IS Fanfic's going to take a break; I need some ideas as to how to get the time travel in. Now then, my next chapter should take a week. Thanks to school, I'm kept relatively busy. Until then, cya! This is Michael vi Britannia, signing off!
(DON'T FORGET TO CLICK THAT MAGIC BLUE BUTTON OF AWESOMENEZZ! XD)
