Chapter 2: The Reverse Rebellion
"It's been a week since your little Declaration Lelouch, and you only have 1,000 people joining your cause." C.C. says disappointed.
"I know C.C. But that is partly due to the fact that since then, they haven't let many Brittanians enter Japan, out of fear they would join my Leagues." Lelouch replies.
"Although it's partly because, however short your rule was, even many Brittanians would have rather a different emperor anyways."
"I will only require a small task force anyways, with the KnightCrawlers we assembled over the last year, it shouldn't be much trouble to accomplish my goal."
"I'm not sure how a new rebellion will destroy Geass though. you are immortal after all."
"That man died, even with the code, did he not? I will simply have to find different ways of doing so."
"True, the Thought Elevator was completely destroyed back then wasn't it? So going back and demanding death isn't an option." C.C. says and then Lelouch's cell phone rings.
"Hello?" Lelouch answers.
"Infinite correct?" The person on the other end asks.
"Yes, who am I speaking to right now?" Lelouch wonders who would have called this number expecting Infinite when he only told people once they joined him. Not including those who believed him to be dead.
"Then you really are alive," The man says with a sense of relief and joy; also startling Lelouch. "It is I, Jeremiah, Lord Lelouch." This announcement and use of his name completely baffles him.
"Je-Jeremiah?" C.C. straitens up at hearing the name.
They were both aware that, although in willing League with Lelouch, the Royal family did not charge Jeremiah and kill him on the condition he removed the Geass Lelouch had used on many to fallow him and he acted as a normal citizen. But this call was still surprising.
"Yes Lord Lelouch, and I wish to join you, to serve you once again." Jeremiah pronounces with pride.
Lelouch takes a moment to reply out of shier shock. "I would very much appreciate your assistance in my quest Jeremiah, you must come to me at once. I actually have a KnightCrawler all prepared you could use as well." Lelouch says.
"This is great news to me Lord Lelouch, I shall meet you at once, just name where." Jeremiah answers, and listens carefully to Lelouch's fallowing instructions.
That night Jeremiah made for an old cellar near the government building of Japan and entered, although no one was inside this cellar, not even Lelouch, but Jeremiah was told he would not be there, because he had assumed Jeremiah would be put under surveillance after this feed, being Lelouch's main supporter one year ago. However he also knew that they would not be able to enter the Cellar until they confirmed his meeting with someone. And in fact they were; Anya, A knight of Rounds, was fallowing him since Infinite appeared, and, using a heat vision machine, she was ready with her Knightmare to storm the place if another person walked in, just outside.
Inside Jeremiah had his cue, he found a switch on the ground and clicked it, activating Gefjun Disturbers positioned on the ends of the cellar Lelouch placed earlier that day. Once they were activated, Anya's Knightmare shut off, and she couldn't use anything and all other technology within 30 yards was shut down. How Jeremiah was part robotic, Lelouch had positioned the Gefjun Disturbers so he would not be affected by them as long as he stayed on the route planed out for him, and he charged, for in only 30 seconds was given before the power returned. And he must be off Anya's radar range by then or the plan went off in smoke.
Inside the cellar a secret tunnel just big enough for an average adult, like him, to stand up in, and he ran through the tunnel with extreme speed and urgency. With extra speed given by his robotic legs, he was more than 60 yards away by the time the Gefjun Disturbers de-activated, and far out of range of Anya's radar.
In less than half an hour, Jeremiah reaches the end of the underground tunnel and sees a metal plate above him. He already knew this wasn't a door, it was the floor of the building above him, He was told he would have to use his robotic blades embedded in his arms to carve through the floor, this would ensure no one else could get in through this path. He did so and jumped up into the room where in was C.C. and the masked Infinite.
"Jeremiah, I am glad to see you are well preserved after a year of being a simple citizen." Lelouch says, keeping his mask on in case someone else were to enter the room.
"Of course, Infinite, I am here to serve you, as I once did Lelouch in his time." Jeremiah replies, pretending as instructed know Lelouch's identity. "C.C. I am pleased to see you to have taken part in this affair."
"For what reason do I have not to?" She sarcastically replies.
"Well then Jeremiah, you have done great work fallowing my instructions to get here, and you will be promptly rewarded, with a position in the Strike Division Force, second strongest group of forces, not far behind the Infinite Arsenal."
"If I am the Strike Division Captain, who is Captain of the Infinite Arsenal?"
"None other than I, who else is worthy?" C.C. asks.
"Very true C.C."
""Now then," Lelouch speaks again, louder, "Let me show you the KnightCrawler you shall use to revive Emperor Lelouch's name; In the Reverse Rebellion!" He shouts as lights in the hall behind Lelouch flicker on as a KnightCrawler is lifted up. This machine was a black version of his former Knightmare, Siegfried, as were all the KnightCrawlers held in the hall, yet the uniforms of those standing around were white, in an invert of Zero's outfit. they members of the Reverse Knights now shouting...
"In-fin-ite, In-fin-ite, In-fin-ite!"
