"I know it's for welfare but why waste it on the elevens."
"That's why I'm selling it to you my friend. The eleven populations could use a little thinning out if you ask me." A chubby looking Britannian said with a smirk. "Your payment will be transferred to your wife's account."
"Why of course. There's no need to get paranoid anyway; Princess Cornelia is a warrior, these sorts of things are beneath her notice."
The smugglers conversation was abruptly halted as the light suddenly switched off before a hail of gunshots were heard on the upper part of the warehouse. The smugglers below dived down to protect themselves from stray bullets.
"Somebody, switch on the lights." One of the smugglers ordered with a shaky and terrified voice. One of their subordinates instantly ran to switch on the lights. When the lights came back on, the smugglers and their subordinates could only gape in fear at the sight of the masked face of Zero and his Black Knights.
"We are the Order of the Black Knights!" Zero announced with a proud voice, drowning out the smugglers shouts of panic. "I am going to give you two a choice, surrender to us and face justice or fight and die."
Terrified and cornered, the smugglers lost every ounce of organization that they had. "Shoot them," One of the leaders shouted but before a shot could be fired by the smugglers, C.C., dress as Magician, grabbed the grenade from her hip and threw the grenade on the cowering smugglers. The grenade landed on the ground and instantly dispersed a white gas that enveloped the area.
The Black Knights from the higher ground instantly wore gas mask over their visor as they heard several thuds from below. "Magician, what kind of grenade did you use?" Kallen asked curiously.
"A chemical grenade filled with highly concentrated knock-out gas." C.C. said while using the voice scrambler so she could sound like Lelouch.
"Well that's convenient." Tamaki muttered as the group waited for the gas to disperse.
"I compensate my lack of strength with my brains, that's the least I can do." C.C. stated and Lelouch, dress as Zero, scowl beneath his mask. She still couldn't resist taunting him.
As the smoke dispersed, the Black Knights hurriedly went down and checked on the smugglers. They were all unconscious. "Minami, Yoshida checked on the crates." Zero ordered as he stood behind his knights.
The two instantly boarded the truck and break open one of the crates. "Zero, there are some medicines here."
"And some food as well."
Zero nodded the same as before just as he expected. "Good, Ohgi divide the supplies, thirty percent goes to us while the rest goes to the Japanese in the Ghettos." Ohgi nodded as he approached the truck. "The rest of you drag the bodies and dispose of them. Garbage like them shouldn't be allowed to live." Zero ordered coldly.
Those who he had ordered grimaced a bit but followed regardless. As much as it disturbed them to kill those who are defenseless, they are currently at war and they must do acts that they normally would not do. That and they were Britannians that were about to smuggle supplies that were rightfully theirs; thus, they were in the process of unintentionally killing their fellow Japanese, something that they will not allow.
"Make sure it's as quick and painless as humanly possible. They may be scum but even they do not deserve a slow death." Zero added as his subordinates nodded.
As they dragged the bodies to a single area, Kallen could not help but voice her opinion. "Isn't it better for us to just give them to the authorities?"
"That would be our first option if it weren't for the police being in the back pocket of some of the gangs here in Tokyo." Zero exclaimed with a blunt tone. "There has not been a true police force since the Britannians took over. They are either swayed by money or by the pleasure of the flesh, a pity that Cornelia can't even clean up such meager trouble." Zero commented with a disappointing sigh.
"Cornelia is more of a warrior than a politician." C.C. stated with a drawled voice. "She will not last long in the royal court." C.C. exclaimed remembering her time in the Britannian royal court when she was an ally of Charles and Marianne. She was still cursing Marianne for forcing her to actually be a member of her court; she wasted a lot of her valuable time listening to some Political propaganda that she did not actually care about. 'Well me corrupting her son and screwing him every night seem to be a fitting revenge.'
"But that doesn't change the fact that she could be a real pain in the future." Kallen commented while the two merely looked at her.
"Against you my dear, she will not be that troublesome." C.C. stated, making sure her voice was as soothing as possible.
"There could only be one Goddess of Victory and that is you Kallen." Zero stated with a gentle tone. "You will put that fake to her place someday and you will engrave into her the fear that the true Goddess of War has finally grace the battlefield." Zero exclaimed confidently while Kallen was a bit flattered by the praise and a bit confused if she was going to be honest with herself.
They have only seen her pilot a Knightmare Frame a total of three times but by the way they spoke about her piloting skills was like they've seen her pilot a Knightmare countless times with skills that would make the Knight of One jealous. Unknown to her, they've already witness her piloting skills in the past, figuratively speaking, and she does possess skills that would make the Knight of One gawk in awe.
Their conversation was interrupted when Ohgi came up to them. "Zero, I'm done dividing the supplies." Ohgi reported as the three heads of the Black Knights spared him a glance.
"Exceptional work Ohgi, we just wait for our comrades to clean up the bodies then we can all go home, knowing that tonight, the Black Knights has served justice." Zero said passionately.
(Scene Change)
Kallen lay face down on her bed, completely naked with the exception of her panties, exhausted but was quite satisfied with the outcome of the mission last night. Things were picking up since their debut two weeks ago. They were doing some minor raids and quite a few missions to boost their popularity among the populace of Japan. From helping those who were bullied by Britannian Military Populace, to liberating Japanese women force to serve as prostitutes for the Britannian nobles and military, all the way to stopping smugglers from shipping products that were rightfully theirs. Truthfully, most of them were confused on why they were doing such heroic acts but Lelouch had explained to them that they need to live up to their names as Knights of Justice and they also need to build their reputation for the future when they take over Japan. According to him, what's the use of them freeing Japan if they can't establish a government that the Japanese can trust? After that, they were more eager to do those heroic acts.
'Lelouch,' Kallen thought with a small blush as her hand suddenly travelled south. He was a walking contradiction and she like that trait of him. At first glance, Lelouch Lamperouge was laid back to the point of apathy; he treats those who don't know him depending on how they act with a blank expression adorning his face. On the other hand, he treats his friends and allies with respect and care with the exception of three very special women.
He has this deep devotion to his sister Nunnally that she will openly admit that she was jealous of her; Lelouch would practically do anything for her. Cecelia or C.C., as Lelouch called her, was like an annoying mistress to him, and the fact that Lelouch allowed himself to be manipulated by that girl truly annoyed her. She still couldn't believe that she hadn't throttle that girl for kissing, caressing (more like molesting if you ask Shirley and Kallen), and flirting with her Lelouch.
'My Lelouch? Where did that thought come from?' Kallen wondered as she slowly rubbed her labia with her fingers causing her to let out a soft moan of pleasure. She didn't know why but Lelouch had been extra nice to her since they've met, he openly flirts with her, much to the shock of her so called friends whom thought that Lelouch was dating Constantine, he always finds a reason to either caress her hair or just touch her, he treats her accordingly even with her act, and they've even shared a kiss on a few occasions. Sure those kisses that they've shared were initiated by Lelouch and he always pulled back before she could return the kiss much to her disappointment but the pleasure that she receives with every kiss with him was quite blissful.
'Lelouch,' Kallen thought once more as a vivid image of him suddenly flashed before her eyes causing her insert one finger inside her, she had to bite back a moan. 'Why does he affect me like this?'Kallen wondered vividly as she began pleasuring herself at the very thought of him. The way he smiles, the way he talks, the sweet melody of his voice when he refers to her as a queen, those were all imprinted in her head and as she recalled her few moments with him, there was something inside of her saying that he knew her in a way that would make her love him and frankly it both frightened and excited her a bit.
"Lelouch," Kallen moaned as she felt her liquids slowly dampening her panties as she inserted the second finger and began moving it in and out of her. She began moaning silently yet wildly and would have continued that way when a loud crash from outside interrupted her 'personal time'.
She cursed silently as she threw her dressing gown and opened the door and looked out into the hall. She had almost yelled in frustration when an unwelcome figure met her gaze, and below that unwelcome figure was a broken chandelier. Kallen instantly knew that she broke it.
The 'unwelcome figure' was a bit startled and disappointment at her handiwork as she looked up from her handiwork only to her 'mistress'. "Kallen…I mean Miss, forgive me, I didn't wish to wake you." The figure said as a small smile slowly made its way to her lips.
"Again," Kallen whispered, trying to fight back the irate tone in her voice.
"Sorry, it was the step ladder this time, it broke." The figure explained sadly.
"Well just clean it up and be quick about it. I have to go to school soon." Kallen dismissively, the sooner she was out of her sight, the better.
The maid perked up at that as the smile on her lips broaden a bit. "Mistress, you've been attending school quite a bit lately, making any friends?"
Kallen gazed harden a bit. "I don't suppose that's any of your business." Kallen was about to go back to her room when a familiar figure suddenly met her view.
"Don't you think that's a bit harsh?" Lelouch inquired suddenly appearing beside the maid that Kallen just scolded.
"Lelouch, what are you doing here?" Kallen asked in surprised, instantly forgetting the frustration and irritation that she felt at the sight of her mother. She also let go of the front fabric of her dressing gown, giving Lelouch a good view of her body.
Lelouch smile a bit as he pointed the maid besides him. "She let me in." Lelouch answered which instantly cause Kallen to glare at her but before she could reprimand her, Lelouch approach Kallen, startling her a bit. She was further startled when he suddenly knelt before her.
"You should cover this body of yours." Lelouch commented as he slowly closed the gown with its fabric belt. The gown was slowly showing of her body to him and as much as he liked the view of her breasts and her greenish-blue panties, he was a gentleman first and foremost. "There are a lot of perverts that would pay big time just to see a glimpse of your body and I don't like that." Lelouch added as he tied the fabric belt over Kallen's waist.
All the blood was hastily rushing in Kallen's head as Lelouch knelt before her and close her dressing gown. Did he just saw her naked?
"Le-Le-Le-Lelouch, why are you here?" Kallen managed to ask as Lelouch stood before her and gave her a small kiss on the forehead, causing her to lose every ounce of composure that she was able to regain.
"I came to pick you up." Lelouch said with a smirk. "I was a bit worried that you might be late for school after 'our date' last night so I took the liberty of picking you up." Lelouch explained, winking when he said date to avoid getting any suspicion from the made behind them. The said maid was now secretly grinning.
Kallen coughed in embarrassment as she nodded. "I see, okay then, just let me get dress and we can be on our way." Kallen exclaimed as she entered her room before gently shutting the door in front of Lelouch.
Lelouch chuckled slightly before approaching the maid that gave him access in their house before kneeling before her respectfully and helping her pick up the shards of glass. "You have such a beautiful and amazing daughter." Lelouch stated sincerely.
"Thank you,"
"Don't thank me, Lady Kozuki, I should be thanking you." Lelouch said with as his violet eyes gazed at her blue eyes. "Lady Kozuki, Kallen inherited your eyes, your beauty, and your strength and because of you, one of the most beautiful women I know graces this earth and I greatly appreciate that." Lelouch then bowed his head to her.
"Lady Kozuki, I thank you from the bottom of my heart, thank you for being Kallen's mother and for being with her at all times."

"The EU is starting an offensive along the LMNA front. We can't go on dragging our feet around here. I want to solidify domestic affairs; its high time Area Eleven was made a satellite nation. For that to happen we need to eradicate terrorism of course but another major problem is the rampant abuse or refrain amongst the eleven. Productivity is plummeting. It's coming in the Chinese Federations Kyushu route; we have to put an end to it." Cornelia explained to her sister as several trains arrived from their supply line.
"Yes but be careful." Euphemia said, genuinely worried about her sister going off to another mission.
"You as well, I don't want you leaving the settlement." Cornelia said, still a bit paranoid after her sister's involvement in that hostage taking drama two weeks ago.
"Cornelia, what about the Black Knights and Zero?" Euphemia asked curiously. After that chase Zero lured her sister in, Cornelia was hell bent in killing the mask vigilante.
Cornelia had to resist the urge of growling at that. "I'll let him and his group to roam free for a while; I owe that conniving bastard that much for saving those hostages." Cornelia's gazed then softens as her hand caressed the cheeks of her beloved sister. "However, upon my return. Once I clean up this area, I'll entrust it to you. Try to stay out of harm's way from now on, alright Euphy." Cornelia said with a gentle smile.
Euphemia found solace in Cornelia's touch but still, there was something bothering her. 'Lelouch, Nunnally, why didn't you two return to us?'Euphemia wondered as the memory of her brother saving him from those terrorist. 'I need answers and Suzaku will help me get those answers.' Euphemia thought, remembering where to find Suzaku at this time and where her brother live, her only problem now is how she could lose the bodyguards that her sister assigned to protect her.
(Scene Change)
Nina was busying herself in front of her computer, doing what she does best; she knew that her research was finally going to pay off, just a little bit more time. It was a free day in Ashford and the event two weeks before was still fresh from everyone's mind, including hers. For the last two weeks, they have been pestered and annoyed by their classmates; they were persistently asking them questions about the traumatic the hostage taking incidents. In class, in the showers, heck she, Milly, and Shirley weren't able to leave campus without them being swarm by journalist and media wanting to have an inside scoop at their expense. If it weren't for Lelouch showing them a secret exit in the form of an underground passage, she doubt if they could have left the academy without being annoyed by some random journalist.
Although, Milly and Shirley instantly scolded Lelouch for knowing such a place, Shirley accused him of using the said secret passage to sneak out of school to gamble and Milly hit him in the head for not informing her of such valuable Intel about her school. She on the other merely thanked him for providing them an exit, which he answered by a smile of appreciation. At least somebody appreciated his charity, was his exact words to her.
"Lelouch," Nina whispered as the violet eyed teen flooded her mind once again, halting her typing in her laptop. The memory of him saving her from those filthy terrorist once again flash before her mind.
"Sorry if you have to see that but it's either those two or you, and I choose them."Were the words of Lelouch right after he killed those Elevens that were about to kill her.
'I haven't properly thanked him yet.'Nina thought as she remembered the small conversation she had with Lelouch in the past two weeks. A lot of things have change between them, normally, Nina will only speak with Lelouch if it necessary or if there was something interesting that she and him would debate on it, after that incident, Nina had took every opportunity to talk to him. Lelouch had been a gentleman and converse with her every time she approached him, much to her relief.
Her musing was interrupted when the door of the Student Council Office opened. "Is there anyone here?" A familiar voice called instantly snapping Nina's attention to the source of the voice.
"Lelouch," Nina called as the said person entered the room.
Lelouch smiled as the bespectacled girl, this was unexpected but welcome. "Hello there Nina, fancy meeting you here." Lelouch greeted with a curt nod causing Nina to blush lightly.
"Vice-President, what are you doing here?" Nina asked curiously as he approached her and glanced at the computer screen.
"What do we have here?" Lelouch wondered as he looked at the screen with interest adorning his face as he leant over her shoulder, pretending to ignore the flush as he brushed past her ear "Hmm…this looks like it could be something big…what is it?"
"A Uranium isotope." Nina admitted, sounding increasingly more confident as she looked back at the screen "If you can get it to absorb active neutrons, it should speed into high speed neutrons and atomic nuclei."
"It sounds dangerously complex." Lelouch admitted with a hint of nervousness, though internally he was breaking out in a cold sweat as he recognized the precursor for one of the deadliest weapons known to man. Time to run prevent a disaster or run damage control. "A big explosion or an infinite power source, such interesting work your doing." Lelouch complimented igniting a bigger blush from Nina.
"You think so, Vice President?" Nina murmured with delight as her 'knight' took interest in her work.
Lelouch chuckled as he tried to formulate a plan to prevent her from creating that demonic bomb. "Hey Nina, how long have you been working on this thing?" Lelouch asked curiously as he took a chair and sat beside Nina. "This thing is so complex that even I have a problem understanding it."
"I've been working on this for quite a while now, probably three years, give or take a couple of months." Nina answered nervously as she felt Lelouch's arm brushing of hers.
Lelouch took the liberty of reading and understanding the data in front of him before taking a USB from his pocket and attaching it to the computer. "Hey Nina, can you give me a favor and check on something I've been working?" Lelouch asked with a pleading expression. "It's not as complex as your work but I would really want an expert like you to look at it. It's still in theory but I have already made a draft of the final product." Lelouch requested politely as he opened to files from the said USB. If all goes well, then she might actually help her develop his ace.
Nina diverted her attention from Lelouch to the screen once again and analyzed the two works that he presented to her. It only took Nina a minute or so before she was completely mesmerized by the data on the screen. Lelouch slowly inch away from Nina when he heard her murmuring something under her breath. After twenty minutes, Nina looked at Lelouch with a smile so bright that it almost blinded him.
"Vice-President, this is ingenious, both of them are." Nina commented as she once again glanced at the screen. "This N-Jammer of yours is incredible, suppressing nuclear fission reactions by blocking the movement of free neutrons, I never thought its possible but this theory of yours it could make that plausible. Even the side effect is wonderful, disruption of radio waves, amazing." Nina commented as she diverted her attention to the technological breakthrough that Lelouch was working on.
"You've even created a countermeasure for this." Nina stated, her smile broadening. "Neutron Jammer Canceller, this is more interesting than the former. Cancellation of the N-Jammers plus providing a limitless power source, this is such tremendous work." Nina said, in awe at Lelouch's piece of work.
Lelouch had to smile shyly at that. If he was to be truthful, he just reversed engineered F.L.E.I.J.A… "Thanks Nina, that means a lot." Lelouch said as he came near her again. "Truth be told, those two are just a prelude of what I'm truly planning." Lelouch admitted as he opened another file from his USB.
"Before my mother's death, she was once a Knightmare Pilot, a good one at that." Lelouch said, while trying to remember that good times he spend with his mother before discovering that she was in the league of his father. "I want to honor her memories by creating Knightmares but not just an ordinary Knightmare, a Knightmare that has endless fighting endurance coupled with state of the art weaponry." Lelouch explained as he showed her a Knightmare design that has been giving him trouble.
"I've already perfected two designs but this one has been giving me problems." Lelouch said as he allowed Nina to look at one of his designs.
Again, Nina was awestruck. "Lelouch, you're a genius." Nina exclaimed as she quickly understood the genius of the design. "The problem of this design is the vector of the main weapon…." Before Nina could finish her statement, Lelouch put a finger on her lips, preventing her from speaking.
"You know Nina; you don't have to settle with just a computer to finish your work." Lelouch said, seeing that he finally got her attention. "What would you say about a deal, help me finish the design of ZX03-Aria and I'll give you the means to finish your research work." Lelouch offered. If her told her to stop her life's work, that will be too cruel even for him so he just decided to at least have her remodel F.L.E.I.J.A. as a power source for Knightmares, heck, she might be able to help him finish the Jammers.
(Scene Change)
Kallen was descending on a fleet of stairs as her mother, real mother, had called her, saying that she has visitors.
"Mistress Kallen, Mistress Kallen," Her Mother called as both Milly and Lelouch stood outside of her family's mansion.
"Lelouch, Madam President," Kallen exclaimed loudly as two familiar figures met her gaze.
Lelouch gave her a slight nod while Milly merely smile at her direction. "We just dropped by to give you something." Milly said as the maid turn around and glanced at Kallen.
"Where would you like me to show them to, the parlor perhaps pr maybe…." The maid trailed off as Kallen interrupted her as she narrowed her gazed.
"We'll be in my room." Kallen coldly exclaimed.
"As you wish." The maid replied with a feeble tone.
"Oh, I heard you had friends down here." An irritating, feminine voice caught their attentions. A blonde woman wearing elegant clothes and jewelry suddenly appeared on the top of the stairs, her eyes a narrowed. "So is this the boy that has been taking you out all night." The woman asked as her gazed fell on Lelouch. "Out all night and missing school, not to mention all your visits to the Ghetto, you're lucky your father is back in the homeland." The woman then sneered at the maid besides Lelouch. "No fighting one's blood, is there?" The maid instantly looked at her feet as she slowly inch away from the visitors.
"You're the one who's enjoying dad not being around here, aren't you?" Kallen yelled as she glared at her step-mother with disdain.
Lelouch instantly hated the attitude of Kallen's step-mother, those were the nobles that he had once eradicated and will eradicate in the near future. Lelouch silently grabbed the maid's wrist in order to avoid the vase being knocked over.
"Watch your step, Lady Kozuki," Lelouch advised her as he gave her a comforting smile. "Just bare with this treatment a little bit more, things will get better, I assure you." Lelouch exclaimed softly so that she was the only who could hear him.
Lelouch then let go of her wrist and followed Kallen to her room, looks like he has an errand to run after this visit.
(In Kallen's room)
In Kallen's room, Kallen and Milly were seated in a table, with Lelouch waiting outside. Lelouch said that it was improper for a boy entering a girl's room, something that Milly agreed on.
"So what was it you wanted to give me?" Kallen asked, reverting to her sickly persona.
"Grandfather asked me to pass this on." Milly said as she searched for something from her purse.
"You mean the Principal?"
"Your transcript since Middle School," Milly said as she slid an envelope with the Ashford's insignia on it towards Kallen. Kallen visibly flinch at this. "I thought I better give them to you off of school grounds."
"So my secret is out then, isn't it? That I'm actually an Eleven-Britannian half-breed." Kallen said, feeling a bit disgusted at referring to her Japanese heritage as a number.
Kallen then opened the envelope and read what's inside of it. "That was my step-mother down there; my mother was a clouded maid." Kallen explained as she took a pen and sign on the dotted line.
"And your father is he the head of the Stadtfeld family?" Milly asked softly, knowing that this is a sensitive subject for her.
Kallen looked down in order to hide her sorrow filled eyes. "My mother is such a fool. In the end she winded up as a servant." Kallen whispered bitterly. "She doesn't have any real skills, no matter who's ridiculing her; all she can do is laugh like it was nothing." Kallen clench her hands, refusing to shed a tear for her mother. "She doesn't have to choose to stay in this house, you know. She's just clinging to some old lover who jilted her."
"You really hate your mother, don't you?" Milly asked softly, a sad expression adorning her face. She actually pitied Kallen's real mother.
"I just find her depressing." Kallen answered as she reaches for tea.
"Well this is getting heavy." Milly then looked outside, reflecting on her own predicament. "Imagine the wife, and the daughter and the other woman, all living together."
"Could be worse, three square meals and a roof, right?" Kallen then offered her tea. "I mean, it's not unbearable, most of the time anyway." Kallen whispered with a small frown.
"That's good, still." A sad smile adorned Milly's features as she looked outside. "Something's in life we can bear on our own but, when you add them all up, they eventually break you." Kallen perked up at that as she stared at the normally upbeat president.
"Oh, don't worry, I won't lie, I'm always hungry for secrets but I never talk about something like this." Milly assured her as she took a sip on the tea offered to her.
Outside Kallen's room, two figures were listening to their conversation.
"Just say the word Lady Kozuki, and I'll provide you and Kallen with a decent home with a decent income." Lelouch said as the two girls in the room feel into silence. Lelouch was leaning behind the door while Kallen's mother was in front of him, a sad smile adorning her features.
"Call me Hina, dear." Kallen's mother said as she looked at Lelouch. "And don't bother with me dear, just make Kallen happy." Hina said with a teary voice.
Lelouch sighed deeply as he took a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to her. "The wisest woman I know once told me, a false tear brings pain to the ones around you, but a false smile brings pain to one self." Lelouch told her as he wiped the lone tear that fell from her eyes. "Lady Kozuki, Kallen may not show it but she loves you, she loves you so much that it pains her to see you being ridiculed. She loves you so much that she treats you poorly with hopes that you leave this hell hole." Lelouch said with a gentle tone as she remembered the way Kallen reacted with regards to her mother in his last lifetime.
"Kallen loves you, hang on that belief and don't allow yourself to break." Lelouch said firmly as he squeezes her shoulders. "Your human too, if you want to cry, just cry. No one will fault you for that." Lelouch stated with gentle eyes as the woman before her was on the verge on breaking down.
"Thank you," Hina whispered lowly as she finally allowed herself to sob her sadness away.
Lelouch smiled at her as he patted her on the head. "Kallen is lucky for having a mother like you." Lelouch complimented, actually feeling a bit jealous.
(Scene Change)
Suzaku was sweating nervously under the gaze of Princess Euphemia, the reason was simple, he knew what the subject of this conversation will be. "Milady, how can I be of service to you today?" Suzaku asked nervously while the pink princess frowns a bit.
"Suzaku, please just call me Euphy." Euphemia requested with a cute pout that melts heart at close proximity. "Suzaku, I want you to be my escort and bodyguard tomorrow for my trip." Euphemia stated with a stern voice.
Suzaku was taken aback by that. "Princess,"
"My brother, Lelouch, seems to hold you in high regards and you two seem to be so close." Euphemia said with a gentle smile. "I want to see him and Nunnally again."
Suzaku sighed at this, he had seen this coming. "Princess Euphemia, there is a reason why Lelouch has been hiding all this years." Suzaku said with downtrodden voice.
Euphemia look sadden at that. "He hates us for abandoning him and Nunnally."
"No Princess." Suzaku cut her off with a gentle tone. "He has nothing but good opinions for you and your sister but you need to understand, Lelouch hates Britannia in general and he hates his father with a burning passion." Suzaku informed her as he remembered the oath the Lelouch gave him all those years ago. "Seven years ago, he gave me an oath, an oath that he would destroy Britannia. I joined the Britannian Military to change the system from within to avoid him actually going through with that oath." Suzaku added as he shudders, Lelouch would die if he actually went through with that oath.
Euphemia looked completely depressed at that. "He never forgave father for the death of Lady Marianne, and exiling them in a foreign country, poor Lelouch." Euphemia commented before glancing back at Suzaku. "I beg you Suzaku, lead me to where my dear siblings are. What I ask of you will not be as a princess of Britannia, nor as your superior officer but as a sister who misses her brother and sister very much." Euphemia spoke, gazing at Suzaku's eyes like she was able to see his very soul.
Suzaku wanted to groaned, those eyes, he cannot resist those eyes.
'Lelouch, forgive me for this.'Suzaku thought as he conceded to the Princess wish. Unknown to them, the entire room that they were conversing in were filled with recording devices that led to the room of one Margrave Jeremiah Gottwald.
(Scene Change)
He didn't know why but Lelouch felt a bit nervous today. Why you ask? It may involve Kallen, Shirley, and Nina glaring at his direction as C.C. once again sat in her favorite chair, his lap, it may involve Milly grinning at him like a maniac and promised him great pain and suffering, it may involve Rivlaz starring at him like he was the luckiest man on earth, but no, those reason where not the reason why he feels nervous. The nervous feeling that he was feeling was similar to the feeling he felt right before the completion? of Zero Requiem.
'Why am I feeling like something life changing is going to happen today?' Lelouch wondered as C.C. started stroking his cheeks, much to the annoyance of three-fourths of the female in the room. Nunnally was present but she was blind so she did not know what was happening to her brother, fortunately.
"Calm down will you, you look like you're expecting to die soon." C.C. commented as the expression on Lelouch's face mirrored the face he had the day before he died.
"Yeah Lulu, stop fidgeting." Milly agreed as the smile on Milly's face was like of that of a mischievous cat. "Just enjoy having Cecelia sit on your lap or would you like to see more flesh." Milly inquired perversely.
"MADAM PRESIDENT," Shirley shouted at that indecent statement.
"I can arrange that." C.C. said as she removed her tie and began loosening her blazer. Before things got out of hand, meaning before Rivalz died via nose bleed, Kallen forcibly closed Cecelia's already opened blazer before she unveiled any flesh in front of Lelouch.
"Do you have any decency woman?" Kallen inquired as she began buttoning Cecelia's blazer.
"I know how to act decent, what about you?" C.C. asked with a coy smile that had cause Lelouch misery in his past life time. Lelouch already know what she was going to do and merely sat back and enjoy the view as C.C.'s hand suddenly grabbed Kallen's hand on her blazer. "You're the one who has been shamelessly touching my breast." C.C. said as she moved Kallen's hand so that she was massaging one of her covered breast.
Kallen looked mortified at that as she tried to remove her hand over Cecelia's breast only for her to grab her free hand put it over her other breast. "Kallen, I thought you like Lelouch but I never would have thought you to be interested in me too." C.C. commented coyly as Kallen blush at the feeling of two handfuls C.C.'s breast on her hands.
Milly, not wanting to be outdone by Cecelia, cupped Shirley's breast with her own hands and began kneading it, much to the Orange hair girl's discomfort. "MISS PRESIDENT, LET GO OF ME." Shirley all but demanded as she with a huge blush while the president lewdly touches her breast.
"Hey Kallen, what's Cecelia's bust size?" Milly asked as she began to grope Shirley's breast, much to the discomfort of Shirley. "I think Shirley is a D."
"I thing I'm an F-cup, Milly but if you want to be really sure, ask Lelouch. After all, he has seen me under without my clothes countless of times." C.C. stated with a perversely suggestive tone much to Lelouch's annoyance.
'I got to hand it to C.C. giving them hints about our sex life.'Lelouch thought grimly as the room froze at the mention of that. The smile on Milly's face now reminisced of a devil as she slowly approach Lelouch, her hips swaying seductively as cold sweat began to form on his forehead.
'Hey Gods, I saved you from my parents, please save me from this devil.' Lelouch all but begged and for the first time, the universe came to his rescue as his phone suddenly rang. Lelouch answered the phone as he felt a bit relieve when Milly stopped from her tracks.
"Hello," Lelouch greeted as he recognized the caller. "Yes, I'm in Ashford, is there something wrong?" Lelouch asked as Jeremiah suddenly told him a news that made his blood run cold.
"WHAT?" Lelouch roared, startling everyone, including C.C. as she removed herself from his lap as Lelouch stood up. "You serious… Suzaku with her… Couldn't you stop them? No….Damn it." Lelouch exclaimed loudly as he shut his phone off.
Lelouch groaned loudly as a single thought dominated his thoughts. "This is an unforeseen annoyance." Lelouch muttered as everyone in the room looked at him funny.
"Lelouch," Kallen called as she finally removed her hands from C.C.'s breast. "What's the matter, is it an emergency or something?" Kallen grimly, thinking of who the caller was for making Lelouch act like this.
"Brother is there something bothering you." Nunnally asked worriedly as she felt the discomfort in her brother's voice.
Lelouch took a deep breath as he glance outside. "Sayoko, please come out." Lelouch requested as the ninja maid suddenly appeared behind Nunnally's wheelchair. "All of you follow me." Lelouch said as he stepped on a bookshelf before removing a book from the upper corner of the bookshelf. Much to everyone's surprise, with the exception of C.C. and Nunnally, the bookshelf suddenly descended to the ground, revealing a metallic. Lelouch then put his hand over a scanner and with a quick confirmation; the door opened revealing an elevator. The members of the Student were shock at that, especially Milly who did not know that something like that existed in her school.
(Scene Change)
"Make yourself comfortable, we're going to be here for a while." Lelouch told them as the group entered a large underground room. The room was the same size as their office complete with a large screen on the middle of the room and the room was also filled with several military devices and gadgets used especially in surveillance. In front of the computer was a throne like chair and behind it was a comfy sofa in front of an elegant, Italian style glass table. There was also a fridge, a microwave, a single bed in the farthest corner of the room.
"Lelouch, why didn't you tell me that this place existed?" Milly demanded as she watched Lelouch sat on the makeshift throne.
"This place existed since only a week ago." Lelouch answered as he flexes his shoulder. "A lot of nobles owe me a ton of money and some of them paid me with the gadgets you see around you, seeing that I accumulated a lot of surveillance devices, I kind of created this room for school surveillance sake." He modeled the room base on secret room that the Britannian Secret Intelligence Service built had on Ashford in his last lifetime.
Lelouch press a button on the throne and suddenly, a large keyboard rose up from the ground, surprising them a bit. With great grace, Lelouch press multiple keys in the keyboard, similar to how a pianist plays a piano, causing the screen to come to life. Several different parts of Ashford Academy appeared on the screen, showing them the students mingling with each other.
The student council, with the exception of C.C. and Nunnally, because she was blind, was at awe at the secret room that Lelouch build under Milly and her family's nose.
"Did you plant cameras in the campus?" Kallen asked rather curiously as she made herself comfortable in the sofa.
"Yes, every inch of Ashford Academy can now be seen in this little room of mine." Lelouch answered as he continued to press keys with incredible speed, trying to find his favorite knight in shining armor and his pink haired sister. The screen was flashing images so fast that it was almost un-viewable, that was until Lelouch stop on a particular video feed that showed Suzaku and a pink haired figure. C.C., Nina and Milly instantly recognize her while the rest was a bit confused.
"Hey, is that Suzaku?" Rivalz question as the video feed of Suzaku was now the lone video feed in the large screen.
"Lulu, is that?" Milly trailed as she saw the deep frown on Lelouch's face.
"I know," Lelouch mumbled as an idea cross his mind. "I can't believe I'm doing this." Lelouch groaned as he press a specific key on the keyboard. "Guys, I'm going to say this in advance, I'm sorry." Lelouch told them with a faint smile as he cleared his throat.
"Hello Ashford Academy," Lelouch with forced cheerfulness. The Members of the Student Council was a bit stunned when the students in the screen halted their tracks. "This is you're Student Council Vice President, Lelouch Lamperouge speaking. Japanese Hunt everybody! Anyone who catches our resident Japanese, Suzaku Kururugi and his little guest gets their clubs budget tripled and WHOEVER brings him to me gets a kiss from a student council member of their choice. Hurry up everyone; this is only a one time deal and Suzaku…" Lelouch smile dementedly as he watched Suzaku and Euphemia panicked a bit. "… This is for not contacting me before hand, I'm sorry but revenge is a bitch." Lelouch then press a button and took solace as he witness everyone running frantically in search for Suzaku and Euphemia, he even crack a smile when he saw the equestrian club in horseback galloping out of the tracks into the school grounds.
"You got the PA system attach to this room too." Milly exclaimed, excited at her new 'office'.
"Everything that is run by a computer in Ashford is connected to this room, meaning that we can control Ashford Academy in this very room." Lelouch exclaimed nonchalant as Kallen put a painful headlock on him.
"You freaking pervert, I don't want to kiss anybody!" Kallen sneered as she tried to choke the life out of Lelouch.
"Me either!" Shirley complained, agreeing with Kallen on that matter.
"Chill guys," Lelouch breathed as he tried to remove Kallen's arm off her neck, keyword try, seeing that he was failing miserably. "Let me just watch Suzaku squirm for a bit before bailing his ass." Lelouch said with grin so evil that it made both C.C. and Milly proud.
(Scene Change)
"Damn it Lelouch," Suzaku cursed as he grabbed Euphemia's hand and run like devil himself was chasing after him, considering that he was being chased by the equestrian club, it was a wise choice and a close equivalent.
"Lelouch seems to know how to lighten up." Eephemia chuckled as they ran into the gardens and jumped over the hedges like hurtles but the equestrian club was close behind them. The horses jumping over the rows of hedges like they had been trained to do by their riders, they continued the chase not realizing that their prize was no longer in front of them. Suzaku was able to maneuver himself and Euphemia and gotten themselves hidden into bush of roses.
Once he felt the coast was clear, Suzaku moved to get a look and grimaced when he noticed several girls searching for him. "I gonna get you for this, Lelouch." Suzaku mumbled under his breath as he once again grabbed Euphemia's hand and used a stealth technique Todoh thought him when he was a kid.
"Suzaku, where are we going?" Euphemia asked, a bit curious on where Suzaku was leading her.
"The Student Council Office," Suzaku answered with a growl.
Their attention was suddenly diverted when they hear Lelouch's voice over the PA system. "Everyone near the garden, turn your heads sixty degrees to the left, and Suzaku squirm for me will you?" The announcement ended at that.
"HEY THERE THEY ARE!" Suzaku groaned loudly as he carried Euphemia bridal style and then too off at full sprint behind a nearby building. He quickly scanned the area they were in for a hiding place and spotted a tree. Using a technique taught to by Todoh, he quickly run up the tree before the girls even have the chance to spot them.
"Hey where did they go?" the first to arrive in their location asked.
"Are you sure you saw them run back here?" asked another.
"Look around, they could be hiding" said a third. So the girls poked around the bushes, checked out the nearby ditch and looked around the far corner of the building. One of them even looked up the tree both Euphemia and Suzaku were hiding in but fortunately they were high enough up it to be obscured by the foliage.
Eventually the girls gave it up as a bad job and went to look elsewhere, and Euphemia and Suzaku breathed a sigh of relief. "What do we do now Suzaku?" Euphemia asked, her hands wrapped around Suzaku's head while she was seated on his lap.
"Let's wait before this commotion is over." Suzaku said before his phone rang. Suzaku grabbed his phone, careful to not let go Euphemia before answering it. "Hello,"
"How's my favorite Honorary Britannian, having fun yet?" Lelouch asked on the other line, his voice clearly amused.
Suzaku growl after hearing the voice of his friend. "Is this your form of a sick joke, Lelouch? Because I am not laughing!"
"I know but I am and look, Milly has been laughing since this whole chase began." Truth be told, he could hear Milly's laughter in the other line. "But I did have my fun so it's time for me to bail you out, I mean the only girls that I have ever kiss would kill me if some random girl kiss me." Lelouch commented with a chuckle.
"The irrigation stream fifty yards away from the tree your hiding in; there are doors underneath the foot bridges for the maintenance staff. Take the one on the right corner that will lead you to the clubhouse." Lelouch instructed humorously.
"You know this, how?" Suzaku asked curiously as he went down the tree, Euphemia's embrace tightening a bit.
"I have cameras planted all over campus, seeing you squirm is quite entertaining watching it in over twenty different vantage point." Lelouch said with a laugh as Suzaku shook his head at his friend's behavior. "That and this how Rivalz and I would sneak off campus to go gambling and oh yeah, one more thing." Lelouch hang up as his voice once again came over the PA system.
"Rugby Club and Football club, Suzaku is seventy yards and Ninety yards respectively to your right better get them quick if you want the prize. And let me give you some extra motivation, Kallen's lips taste like strawberries and Shirley doesn't look half bad herself." Lelouch voice echoed across the campus as Suzaku run as fast as possible. "Good luck Suzaku, you're going to need it big time, and keep your hands to yourself if you know what's good for you."
(Scene Change)
"Lelouch, you devious bastard." Milly commented with a laugh as Sayoko stopped the two girls from throttling Lelouch.
"I never thought watching Suzaku squirm could be this entertaining." Lelouch stated with an amused smile.
"That's mean, big brother." Nunnally scolded him as she pinched his arm.
Lelouch ignored the pain as he watched the two entered the clubhouse and stood in the middle of the room. Lelouch chuckled once again as a press a certain key causing the surface that they were standing on to disappear and plummet to a bottomless pit. "You have the clubhouse rigged too?" Rivalz commented in surprise.
"Yup and Rivalz, Nina get the hell off the sofa." Lelouch ordered as the group heard a loud yell from above them.
"LELOUCH," A male and female voice yelled as both Rivalz and Nina jumped of the sofa as two familiar figures, for him, landed on the middle of the couch.
"Hey Princess Euphemia, I hope you enjoyed you first visit here in Ashford." Lelouch greeted as the group, with an exception of a few, were surprise at the sight of an imperial princess.
"LULU, THAT WAS MEAN OF YOU." Euphemia scolded with a pout.
"I'll get you for this Lelouch." Suzaku almost snarled as he glared at his best friend.
"Euphy, is that really you?" Nunnally asked with a bright smile as she turned her wheelchair around at the direction where she heard Euphemia's voice.
"Nunna," Euphemia smiled brightly at the sight of her favorite half-sister, tears building in her eyes.
Lelouch shook his head before gazing at Sayoko. "Sayoko, who was sitting there?" Lelouch asked as he pointed at the landing sight of Suzaku.
"I think it was Kallen, my lord." Sayoko answered as the said girl looked confused for a bit.
Lelouch nodded as he pushed the bottom that was connected on the school's PA system. "Attention Ashford Students, we have a winner! Both Suzaku and his guest have been turned in by none other than our student council member Kallen Stadtfeld. Better luck next time." Lelouch announced as he turned off the PA system and stood up. "Sayoko, let go of Kallen." Lelouch ordered, noticing the both Kallen and Shirley were being held down by Sayoko.
Sayoko nodded as she removed the hold she put on Kallen causing her to stumble on Lelouch's direction. Lelouch used her momentum to spin her around into his arm, bending her back a bit before leaning in to capture her lips into a kiss. Everyone in the room froze, including Kallen who was once again being kiss by Lelouch and by God; he was now using some tongue.
Like all those kisses that Lelouch stole from her, he pulled back before she had the chance to return the kiss. "Just like strawberries and wine." Lelouch commented before glancing at the shellshock Euphemia. "Let's have a proper reunion at my house, shall we." Lelouch offered casually as the room fell into silence as he pushed Nunnally's wheelchair to the exit that leads to their house.
"Big brother, why is it suddenly quiet?" Nunnally asked in a clueless tone, not seeing what her brother just did.
"It's nothing Nunnally; I just kiss a girl in front of everyone." Lelouch answered bluntly like it was not something out of the ordinary.
"I see," Nunnally giggled at her brother's boldness. "Was she pretty?"
"She is very elegant and rather tasty too." Lelouch answered casually, ignoring the loud thud that signified the fainting of Shirley.
(Scene Change)
Lelouch led Kallen to his room while Euphemia and Suzaku were with Nunnally in the dining hall. He was quite fortunate that Milly decided to remodel his, I mean, the Student Council's surveillance room, saying that the room was to gloomy for her taste. "Sorry for the kiss but I needed something to distract Suzaku from seeing the code that I sent you." Lelouch apologized while Kallen merely blush lightly.
"Forget about it but next time, can you use a more subtle way on passing messages to me." Kallen requested in a whisper but it was still loud enough for Lelouch to hear.
"I'll try but no promises." Lelouch said with a chuckle. "I can't resist those lips of yours, you know that." Lelouch exclaimed as Kallen scoffed a bit.
"I never thought of you as a pervert." Kallen commented with a slightly irate tone.
"My perversion is reserve for you and C.C… I am not interested on the rest if I can have the women that already have a grasp on my heart. That and you guys are that damn gorgeous." Lelouch commented as he opened the door to his room and push Kallen in. He sat Kallen on his bed before turning his TV on, revealing the dining hall with his guest and Nunnally on the screen. "Kallen, you are going to listen in to my reunion with Princess Euphemia." Lelouch exclaimed as he took Kallen's katana out from under his bed.
"Why would I care to what a royal brat would say?" Kallen inquired, confused on Lelouch's request and a bit curious on what his past relationship with the pink haired princess.
Lelouch sighed sadly as he handed the Katana on his hands to Kallen. "Lelouch Lamperouge is nothing but an elaborated alias." Lelouch admitted as he put the handgun on Kallen's hand. "In this conversation, you are going to discover who I am, my heritage, my dark past, everything I used to be, you're going to find out who the hell I really am and trust me, it's not going to be pretty." Lelouch stopped speaking as he took a deep breath before lightly pressing his forehead against hers.
"There are four people in this world that I would gladly allow myself to be killed, four people who can kill me and I will not hold it against them and I will probably allow them to anyway. Nunnally, Suzaku, C.C., and you, you four can kill me with your bare hands and I will smile knowing that I die in the hands of the four people I trust with my being." Lelouch then gave Kallen a chaste kiss to snap her back to reality. "After this reunion, if I lose your trust, I'm giving you the permission to kill me but spare Nunnally that is all I ask." Lelouch exclaimed as he exited the room before Kallen could voice her question.
As he closed the door behind him, the sight of C.C. glaring at him met his view. "You're risking a lot in this gamble." C.C. stated sternly.
"I know but she is worth it." Lelouch answered calmly as C.C. wrapped her arms around his neck before capturing his lips in a brief kiss.
"If you die, I'll follow you to the abyss." C.C. whispered in a passionate tone.
"You can't, you are an immortal, remember." Lelouch commented with a soft smile.
"Mao has his uses." C.C. retorted as she let go of Lelouch and allowed him to walk pass her.
Lelouch knew as he went down to the dining hall that this may create a rift in his relationship with Kallen but it was worth it, he cannot lie to her and he needed something to create an opportunity for him to give her the memories she had in his last lifetime. Sure, she'll probably kill him for what happened in the past but he'll survive, whatever is left of him that is.
Lelouch stopped in front of the entrance of the dining hall and took a deep breath. "I hope this is the only time ripple I made in changing the future." Lelouch whispered as he entered the dining hall and smile when Euphemia's eyes landed on him. "It's been a while, Euphemia." Lelouch greeted as Euphemia launched herself into Lelouch's arms.
"Lulu, I miss you." Euphemia said in bliss as she was now, officially, reunited with his favorite siblings, half-sibling.
"I miss you too, Euphemia." Lelouch had to fight back tears as he remembered the time he was force to kill her, it was an ultimate failure in his part and it literally tore his heart out. "I know you have a lot of questions to ask me and I'm willing to answer it to the best of my abilities." Lelouch said has he removed himself from the embraced of her half-sibling and sat besides Nunnally. Euphemia nodded with a smile as she sat besides Suzaku and silence suddenly envelop the room as Lelouch gave a signal to Sayoko to take Nunnally away.
"Brother, I want to be with sister Euphemia some more." Nunnally insisted but Lelouch merely patted her on the head.
"I know sis but I need to discuss something with Euphemia. This wouldn't take long, I promise." Lelouch exclaimed gently as Nunnally nod in understanding. Sayoko gently took Nunnally out of the dining hall, leaving the three teens to converse among themselves. "Ask your questions now, Euphemia."
Euphemia nodded as the smiled on her face was replaced with a stern expression. "Why didn't you return to Britannia after Japan was brought to the fold? Do you have any idea how dishearten I was when the news of yours and Nunnally's apparent death reached me?" Euphemia asked, trying to hold back her tears.
Lelouch actually sighed sadly at that as he glanced out the window, a far off look expression on his face. "I can only imagine what you felt, you were after all our closest sibling but Euphy, you need to understand the situation that me and Nunnally were in." Lelouch exclaimed with an angry tone. "Our father, Charles zi Britannia banished me together with Nunnally to Japan. Why because I dare question him about my mother's assassination and his lack of action to bring justice to her death." Lelouch's eyes harden a bit.
"Do you have any idea the feeling of being abandoned in a foreign country with your crippled sister?" Lelouch inquired critically. "Trust me Euphemia, it was hell on earth. Everything that we have was suddenly ripped away from us before we were discarded like trash."
"That still doesn't answer my question, Lelouch." Euphemia exclaimed, feeling a bit unnerved about Lelouch's rant.
Lelouch took a deep breath before a grim smile grace his features. "Eight years ago, the Eleventh Prince and Seventeenth Princess of the Holy Britannian Empire were brought to Japan as political hostages, seven years ago Japan was invaded and the news of the death of the Eleventh Prince and Seventeenth Princess spread throughout Britannia. My and Nunnaly's death, it truly happened, Lelouch and Nunnally vi Britannia are dead, Lelouch and Nunnally Lamperouge exist today in their stead." Lelouch stated indignantly.
"I hate our family Euphemia, with the exception of you and Cornelia; I hate every single one of them. I hate what our family stands for, I hate what our family has done to this world, I hate what our family's belief, I hate the world that our dear old father wants to create, I hate our family period." Lelouch added firmly.
"But Lelouch, your family isn't that bad, is it?" Suzaku questioned, a bit dishearten at what Lelouch was saying.
"Suzaku, have you seen my family?" Lelouch inquired with an indignant expression. "Odysseus is a mediocre Prince, Guinevere is a money wasting fool, Clovis is a flamboyant bastard, Schneizel is a conniving little weasel, Carine is a sadistic little brat, Cornelia, as much as I like her, she is a temperamental soldier, heck if I go through the rest of my family, we are going to be here for more than a month." Lelouch stated with a shudder. "What I am trying to tell you is that my family is screw up beyond salvage, heck the only members of my family that are sane is Nunnally and you, Euphemia." Lelouch added as he shook his head.
"Is that truly you reason, Lelouch?" Euphemia asked quietly while Lelouch shook his head.
"No, I am not that shallow Euphemia." Lelouch answered with a bitter chuckle. "The reason I didn't return to Pendragon when Japan was conquered, the real reason why Nunnally and I fake our death is because I am sick and tired of it all and I do not want my dear sister to suffer that kind of life." Lelouch said slowly as a look of disgust cross his face.
"What do you mean, Lelouch?" Suzaku asked, a bit confused at where Lelouch is going.
Lelouch glanced at Suzaku with weary eyes. "When Japan was in the brink of defeat seven years ago, your father planned an all out and an unending resistance against Britannia, a plan so homicidal that it would end up wiping every single Japanese residing in Japan." Suzaku paled at those words while Euphemia gasped in disgust. "I knew his plan because I was there, listening to him while he made that plan with his parliament. I thank the person who kill that psycho and spare this country her lifeblood. That plan of his will cause the extinction of the Japanese people and that includes one half-Japanese person that is near and dear to my heart. So who ever that guy, I thank him." Lelouch stopped when the color from Suzaku's face was drained.
"When I heard that plan, I got the thinking. Why would a man like him, the Prime Minister of Japan himself create a genocide plan like that, it doesn't make sense to me, not until I saw what Britannia did to this country." Lelouch said, his face was now emotionless. "Britannia had raped countless countries, stripping it of everything, its name, its flag, its culture, its dignity and I had witness how Britannia raped Japan in my seven years stay here after the war. I am not going to elaborate because it is quite sickening but if there was a hell, then Japan after Britannia conquered is a good equivalent of it. I think what your father was planning is that it's better for the Japanese to disappear than to be enslave by Britannia." Suzaku stood up, furious and red in anger.
"THAT WILL NOT RESOLVE ANYTHING." Suzaku shouted in outrage.
"And I agree with you." Lelouch said as Euphemia tried to calm Suzaku down. "But that is not my point Suzaku, my point is I'd witness how dark Britannia is and it disgusts me. The reason why Nunnally and I didn't return is simple; I don't want Nunnally to be connected to such a dark family or country. True, we are Britannians, true, the blood of the emperor runs through my veins, true, I cannot change the fact that my father is the emperor and that I am actually a prince. What I can change is whether I choose to be a part of that family and you guys already know what I'll choose, I refuse to be a member of the royal family, never again." Lelouch stated firmly.
Euphemia sighed sadly at hearing that. "So asking you to return to Pendragon is out of the question?"
"There is only one way for me to return to Britannia and that is if you become Empress, Euphemia." Lelouch stated with a smile as Euphemia was a bit startled by that. "The members of the Royal family, mostly our siblings will one day fight for the throne, I would prefer it if you become the 99th Empress of the Holy Britannian Empire." Lelouch exclaimed with a gentle tone. He then took hold of her hand before giving him pain-filled smile.
"Our family, our country had committed so many sins, so many atrocities that it's going to take us decades to repent them all but in order for our country, for our family to be truly forgiven, we will need a leader with a pure heart, pure soul, and pure intentions and the only ones in our family that has those traits are you and Nunnally and seeing that we are dead, you're the only one, the one who can lead Britannia to a peaceful age." Lelouch told her in a sage like way when he utters a premonition.
(Scene Change)
Euphemia stayed with her favorite half-siblings and had lunch with them, she cannot believe that Lelouch was a good cook and made a mental note to have him teach her how to cook that well in the near future. Nunnally was ecstatic when Euphemia said that she was going to visit them again real soon and bade her sister farewell with a kiss. Nunnally had gotten worn out with all the excitement so Sayoko took her to her room so she could take an afternoon nap. That left Lelouch showing Suzaku and Euphemia to the door.
"Promise me Euphy that you won't tell anyone, not even Cornelia that Nunnally and I are still alive." Lelouch stated as he eyed his sister firmly.
"I promise," Euphemia assured him with a smile. "But I'll be dropping by once in a while."
"Of course," Lelouch smiled a bit before glancing at Suzaku. "Suzaku, give me a favor and protect my sister will you." Lelouch requested with a brotherly expression.
Suzaku nodded before smiling. "Don't worry Lelouch, I'll protect her." Suzaku said but Lelouch was not satisfy with that.
Lelouch approach the two and grabbed their individual hands. "Suzaku, you don't understand how important Euphemia is but let me enlighten you." Lelouch said as he stared at Suzaku like he staring at his soul. "I know your beliefs Suzaku and I'll tell you right now, as righteous as they are, it's very foolish of you to believe in them. The world will not change; you cannot change the world without dirtying your hands. Justice, freedom, and peace is paid with rivers of blood, history has proven that again and again and Japan will attain their liberty by endless bloodshed." Lelouch stated with a firm tone.
The two was about to argue but Lelouch interrupted them. "I know you disagree with me but what I said is a fact but it is not a necessary fact." Lelouch added as he glanced at Suzaku. "Suzaku, Euphemia is the only way for Japan to gain its independence without anymore unnecessary bloodshed; she is the key for Britannia to reach the Golden age of peace. Protect her with your life until she finds a way for that to happen. A lot of people, including members of our family, will bring her harm in the near future and you are the only one who I can trust that could protect her." He then glanced at Euphemia. "Euphemia, if there was more like you in this world, there will be no need for the likes of Zero. This current world that we are living in is shrouded with hatred, as far as I can see, there are two ways in bringing in a peaceful world, we either use a weapon so destructive, so powerful that the world will forcibly be at peace because of the fear they have on that weapon, or we conquer the world into one banner, each of those ways will result to a world being flooded by blood. The third way, I leave it to you to find your own answer." Lelouch finished as he put their hands together.
"You and Zero, its either Zero will usher in the world of peace through a minimum amount of bloodshed or you will with your peaceful ways. Either way, I have my money on Zero but, you two are free to surprise me." And with that said, he retreated back to his house and close the door, leaving two very stun people behind him.
"What just happen, Princess?" Suzaku asked as the two unconsciously held hands.
"I think my brother just entrusted me with his dreams of a peaceful world." Euphemia muttered as a beautiful smile graced her features as her gazed fell on Suzaku. "You're going to help me to ensure that the peaceful world that I and my siblings dream off come to pass, right Suzaku?" Euphemia asked as the two stared at each other, eyes swirling with emotions
"I promised my best friend and your brother that I'll protect and I will do just that until you find your answer and even after that, I shall stand besides you." Suzaku stated passionately and before the two could get overly comfortable with each other, the door was suddenly opened, surprising the two as Euphemia jumped on Suzaku's arms.
"I almost forgot, Suzaku, I know Euphy is extremely beautiful but keep your hands and your eyes and your imagination to yourself." Lelouch warned with a very threatening voice. "Or else you will find out why Cornelia, in all of her infinite beauty don't have suitors and after she's done with you, I will personally remove the very thing that defines you as a man and shoved it down your throat." Lelouch warned as Suzaku merely nods as he slammed the door on his face.
"That was fun now; I just need to deal with my Queen." Lelouch then took a breath spray and sprayed it into his mouth to eliminate his bad breath. With a deep sighed, he walked up to his room to face his Kallen and her reaction after that conversation that he had with Euphemia.
As he opened the door and entered the room, he was not that all surprise when he found a sword pointing at his neck. "Your reaction is extreme but understandable." Lelouch started as he and Kallen stood in the middle of the room.
"Does Zero know about this damn heritage of yours?" Kallen asked passively as her hands shiver a bit. She cannot believe her crush was a member of the Royal Family that she hates so much.
"Zero, C.C. and Milly those are the three that are aware of my heritage." Lelouch answered truthfully, at flinching at the cold blade that was inches away from beheading him.
Kallen was a bit surprised at that but her gaze didn't falter as she hardens her gaze a bit. I guess this whole thing is just a power game, then," she snarled, the sword was now touching his neck. "Just using the Japanese people to claw your way up to the throne, huh? And to think that I ever let you—"
"No." The flat finality of Lelouch's statement halted Kallen's budding rant. "Why, then?" she asked, still poised to stabbed the sword through his neck. "I should have thought a prince of all people would want to see Britannia succeed. Why help us?"
"I want to redeem the sins of my family by helping the country that cradled me and my sister for years and to put an Empress that can change the world for the better." Lelouch said gently. "But that is not all; I have another reason why I am helping you and Zero."
"Then what, what is your damn story?"
Lelouch made a sharp gesture for quiet as he drew himself up to his full height. His poise and expression shifted subtly. And it was no longer Lelouch Lamperouge standing before Kallen—it was something stronger, something enigmatic. "My mother was murdered before my eyes," Lelouch told Kallen with a frighteningly calm voice. "My sister was crippled in the same attack. And that quickly, she was thrown aside like garbage. An innocent victim of the infighting and scheming over who will succeed to the throne. All driven by my bastard of a father. "Lelouch exclaimed with a calm tone that made Kallen flinch a bit. She could feel the hatred oozing in his person.
"My father destroyed countries and lives for a foolish conquest, my family will kill their own blood just to get the crown, and my country is so dark that it is sickening, how can you expect me to be part of that or to let Nunnally take part of that?" Lelouch inquired, his voice so intense that Kallen's hold on her sword falter for a moment. "Your right, I could have choose an easy life, return to Britannia, reclaim my title and live a life of luxury but I refuse to for that will mean that I bowed and conceded to my father's wishes and expectations and I refused to be use again and I will not let that man use my sister again." Lelouch then step forward as Kallen step backward.
"I cannot stomach the thought of my sister being use by my scum of a father. Do you know what she'll do to her; he'll probably marry Nunnally off to a pig of a Britannian Noble or some influential bastard halfway across the world and trust me, I would rather die and rot in hell than condemn my sister to that life." Lelouch scowled a bit as he took a deep breath to calm himself down. "If you don't trust me anymore, then kill me, kill me now, I don't mind if I die in your arms." Lelouch finished as he waited for Kallen and her verdict.
The room fell to silence as Kallen was taken back a bit by the amount of venom and hatred that came from Lelouch's words as he spoke of Britannia and of his family. She cannot find any signs of deceit in his words and she was now sure that the man in front of her held much more hatred to their enemies than anyone in Japan combined. With no hesitation, she threw the sword to her side and look down on the floor. "I still trust you." Kallen exclaimed and that was all Lelouch wanted to hear.
"Thank you and because of your honesty, I am going to be honest with you as well. There is one ulterior motive, one selfish reason why I'm helping your group right now." Lelouch informed her as Kallen perked up bit.
"And that reason is?" Kallen asked curiously, expecting something evil or demented. Instead, Lelouch grabbed hold of her hands, surprising her a bit, and gently push her to his bed. Kallen grunted softly as she open her eyes, only to see Lelouch on top of him, gazing at her with hungry and lust filled eyes. Those eyes made her shiver in fear and anticipation.
Lelouch was positioned on top of Kallen in a way that he could practically do anything to her. Lelouch looks deep into her eyes, his eyes filled with lust, hunger, and passion. He moves in his face closer to hers and caressed her cheeks. Then he moves in to close in the gap, finally kissing her.
He now holds both of her hands with his hands and each pinned them to her sides. Kallen is getting a bit scared at this. "No... please...Lelouch..." Kallen murmured from the kiss, trembling from fear and uncertainty, until she relaxed into the kiss. She starts to calm down and then finds herself kissing back, for time, Lelouch held the kiss long enough for her to return it. His grip lightens a little and her hands come to cup his cheeks and pull him in, deepening the kiss, only a few seconds later that their kiss intensifies.
A minute or so later, the need for air finally force the two to break the kiss as Lelouch leaned on her ear, his breath sending a delightful shiver down her spine. "There are two women in my life that I would like to have, I already have C.C., and now I want you." Lelouch whispered as he licks her earlobe causing Kallen to shudder a bit. "My one and only ulterior motive for helping you guys, is quite simple, it will make it easy for me to seduce you to love me." Lelouch exclaimed sexually.
Kallen was startled at that proclamation. "I never thought of you as a playboy." Those were all Kallen could say as Lelouch lightly press his forehead on hers.
"My father has over 108 consorts, I'll settle for two." Lelouch said with a seductive smile.
"You arrogant punk." Kallen hissed as she tried to calm the beating of her heart. She could have easily push Lelouch off her but something was making her weak to his lust filled gaze. "You think I'll allow myself to be your woman." Kallen said with an indignant expression as she struggled to remove her hands from Lelouch's gripped but he didn't falter and merely held her hands in place.
Lelouch chuckled at that as he gave her a chaste kiss on the lips. "You didn't understand me my dear; I was not giving you any choice in that matter." And with that said, he captured her lips into another heated kiss. Kallen struggled for a moment as Lelouch forcibly invade her lips with his. Kallen tried to move away from Lelouch, but his lips pursued her. He then put his hand on the back of her head to force her stay. The former demon emperor continued suckling and kissing Kallen. He then slowly opened his mouth as his tongue snaked its way to her closed lips, trying to pry it open for him to get his prize.
Kallen's eyes instantly snapped open from the act. She couldn't believe what was happening to her, she was allowing someone to have their way with her and she was enjoying it. The bliss that she was receiving from a simple kiss was mindboggling.
Lelouch dared to snake his tongue out again, this time he was seeking access into her mouth. He ran his tongue along the side of Kallen's lips, his tongue licking her again waiting to see if she would allow him.
After a few seconds, Kallen decided to just concede and go with the flow as her lips parted and accepted his offer. She gently started to kiss him back, then soon with a little more intensity, her mouth sucking and licking his lips as he did to her. Finally, Lelouch let go of her hands as she brought her arms around his waist, holding him tight against her body. Lelouch mentally grinned at that, it worked.
In minutes both Kallen and Lelouch's tongues danced feverishly in each other's mouths. Both sucking... licking...tasting each other's saliva. Lelouch ran his fingers through his Kallen's crimson hair as she ran her hands through his.
"GOD…" Kallen unconsciously purred, seconds later when they broke off their exchange. Lelouch smiled mischievously as he grabbed hold of her hands and pinned them over her head once again. He then positioned himself on top of her so that he has clear access to her delicate neck. His tongue licked along the sides of her cheek and continuing to move down her sleek neck. Kallen unconsciously tilted her head back while Lelouch proceeded with his kisses. As he came to one particular area, he felt her whole body shutter. A smirk formed on the young man's face. It seemed he found one of the hot spots on his Kallen's body. Finding the area again, Lelouch sucked harder with his lips. "AAAAAAAAAhhhhh..." Kallen cried, her hands breaking free from Lelouch's hold and clutched onto him hard, as if she were afraid to be robbed of the joyous feeling. Lelouch continued to nibble on the area that seemed to bring his Kallen so much pleasure, his hands finding their way inside her blazer to her breasts as his hands gently squeezing the satiny flesh through her bra. Lelouch again sucked on the special area and again his Kallen let out a fitful cry. Her breaths seemed to be heavier with every passing second. Lelouch then diverted his attention back to her lips as he once again captures them with his into another passionate kiss. The kiss lasted for a while before he stood up and fixed his blazer to look a bit presentable, leaving a blushing and panting Kallen on the bed, her eyes dazed.
"Let's go Kallen; we're going to be late for class." Lelouch said casually like nothing extraordinary happened.
Kallen was able to tilt her head to gaze at Lelouch. "Just like that, you're going to leave, just like that?" Kallen asked with a breathless tone.
Lelouch chuckled softly as he gazed back at her with loving eyes. "I don't want this to be casual. I don't want to force you into something I know you're not ready to do" Lelouch told her with a gentle tone before it evolves into a predatory like smirk. "I am going to continue to seduce you like this, corner you like this so I could taste my future prize, I'm going to do this to you until you crave my touch, and when you offer yourself to me, body, mind, and soul, then I will take you right there and then." Lelouch stated as he walked towards the door and open it.
Before exiting his room, he had one more thing to say to her. "I already have my White Witch, the only thing missing now it my Crimson Queen and I'll have her no matter what." Lelouch then slowly close the door, his eyes not leaving her frail form on his bed. "I'll have you Kallen, I'll have you offer yourself to me and when that day comes, I'll make you moan my name in ecstasy and that my dear is nonnegotiable." And with that, Lelouch left Kallen in his room, just in time for her to throw a pillow on the door.
"You bastard, you arrogant, punk ass, playboy," Kallen whispered as she reached to her panties, finding herself quite wet from the experience. "Incredibly tempting, extremely cute, amazingly tasty seductive bastard of a Casanova," Kallen muttered as she wondered how long her will and body will last against him and his seducing ways.
Outside Lelouch's room, Lelouch had C.C. pinned on the door frame, making out with her as his hands roamed over her delicate form. "Thanks for those seduction techniques you thought me." Lelouch said in a hoarse tone as he took her stiff right nipple into his mouth, flicking at it in gentle yet firm licks.
"You're welcome," C.C. breathed out as she tried to contain her moans of pleasure.
Man, what a lucky bastard he is.
(Scene Change)
"What the hell is Zero thinking?" Tamaki grumbled as he and the rest of the Black Knights waited for the signal from their leader. Strangely, a white Sutherland was besides Kallen's crimson Gloucester, something that caused the rebels to feel a bit nervous. They do(did) not know who the pilot was seeing that Zero took the lead in order for him to open the path and Lelouch had told them that he won't be able to attend the raid for he was giving a weapon that he was developing the finishing touch.
"After all this talk about taking down Britannia. He just got us running around helping the police." Tamaki complained as he gazed at the warehouse that they were supposed to raid.
The rest of rebels roll their eyes at that. "Did you forget Lelouch's explanation on why we're doing this?" Inoue asked with an annoyed tone.
"Remember, we are not just fighting to take Japan back but we are also fighting to keep it." Yoshida reminded the brash rebel sternly.
"And it's pretty good to have the will of the people behind us." Ohgi added solemnly.
"Yeah he's right, we are totally heroes." Ishida stated silently.
"And it helps us recruit others to fight our cause." Yoshida exclaimed, remembering the influx of recruits that wants to be part of their organization.
Tamaki groaned at that, all of his arguments were shot down. Kallen on the other hand was still out of it, the passionate exchange that Lelouch force on her still fresh in her mind. 'A Britannian Prince touched me.' Kallen thought with a blush on her cheeks as her fingers touched her lips. What happened to her the past afternoon was something that still haunted her, the taste of Lelouch's lips still fresh in her lips, the way he touched her was still remembered by her body.
As much as she wanted to beat the hell out of him, she couldn't and not because they were allies but because she liked the way he touched her, it sent shivers of pleasure through her, something that she had yet to experience. Kallen tried to shake those memories off as she focused on their mission.
"Hey Kallen," Inoue called as that effectively snapped Kallen from her musing. "Do you know who's piloting this Sutherland over here? It looks like it was heavily modified like your Gloucester." Inoue commented and truth be told, it was heavily modified. A shield like Gatling gun was mounted on its right arm while a large cannon was mounted on its left hand, and two missile launchers were mounted on its shoulders. The Sutherland was modified for heavy artillery battles.
"No idea but this has Lelouch's engineering written all over it." Kallen commented as she gazed at the modified Sutherland. She was starting to believe that Lelouch was Jesus incarnated, the guy could practically do anything.
"So who's going to pilot it?" Tamaki asked with an excited smile. "I would sure like to pilot that."
To the surprise of the rebels, a feminine voice boomed from the speakers of the Knightmare frame. "You piloting this frame would cause colossal damage to both sides, mostly to ours. I am surprised my brother allowed you to hold a rifle." A mocking voiced echoed from the Knightmare causing the group to jump in surprised while Kallen almost fell from her Knightmare frame, she knows that voice.
Before anyone could ask who she was, Kallen beat them to it. "Cecelia, is that you?" Kallen asked as the cockpit of the Sutherland opened and a beautiful green haired girl appeared before them.
"Hello Queeny, how are you doing in this fine day?" C.C. asked coyly as she stood on top of her Sutherland. She was wearing the white pilot suit she wore when she was piloting the Gawain with Lelouch.
"What are you doing here?" Kallen asked with a startled tone.
"Isn't it obvious? I'm covering for Lelouch and helping my brother." C.C. stated coyly as Kallen glared at her.
"I thought you didn't want to help your brother and Lelouch with their revolution." Kallen said while glaring at her.
C.C. chuckled a bit before gazing at Kallen with an amuse expression. "Your right, I don't want to help but Lelouch promised me proper compensation if I do and when I say proper compensation I mean him and me on a bed, doing things you can only see in an X-rated movie." C.C. stated and that implication alone was enough for every male in the vicinity to have a nosebleed. "By the way, you're free to join us by the way." C.C. added with a seductive smile as she entered her Sutherland.
Before anything else could happen, Inoue saw the signal and informed her comrades. C.C. was the first to spring to action as she took her Sutherland and moved out.
"Kallen, who's that?" Ohgi asked with a confused tone.
"That," Kallen hissed as she entered her Gloucester. "Is Zero's younger and annoying sister." Kallen stated as she moved as well, the landspinner of her frame accelerating her frame to incredible speed.
(Scene Change)
Inside of the warehouse, countless workers were moving crates of drugs from their containers and preparing them for transport. "Is the shipment for the Nagoya ready?" The Leader of the smugglers asked.
"It's nice and safe in the settlement, huh." The person beside him commented as he said those words, a hail of bullets suddenly tore through the front door, startling everyone in the warehouse causing them all to panic.
Tamaki then kicked the large metal door open as they pointed their rifles at everyone present. "The Black Knights have arrived." With that said, they began to open fire. Some of the smugglers were able to return fire but that change when a red Gloucester and a white Sutherland stormed into the warehouse. The Gloucester let loose a hail of bullets with its rifle while the Sutherland unleashed a storm of bullets with its Gatling gun.
"Knightmares,"
"Screw this," The sight of two heavily arm Knightmares cause even more panic as they hightail it out of there to avoid being killed by the two monstrous machines.
The rain of bullets had hit a couple of crates causing crimson liquid to flow from them. "These Knightmares really are amazing, each one are an army onto itself." Kallen commented as the two Knightmares rode in tandem.
"Yes but it's quite boring shooting at non-moving targets." C.C. stated but regardless, kept on firing her Gatling gun on the smugglers, gunning them down.
Kallen could not help but agree but orders are orders. She then changes her direction and broke through a closing, metallic door, what she saw their made her sick to the stomach.
"I did it! I'm studying abroad!"
"I can't believe it! I'm getting married next week!"
"I got promoted! I don't believe it!"
"Japan...oh, the country is so beautiful this time of year!"
Refrain was a horrible thing in many ways. A psychoactive narcotic that induced flashes of happier times from memory, building up an emotional addiction rather than a physiological one. And worse still, the body grew immune to it quickly, slowly forcing the user to up the dosage to achieve the same effects, locking its victims into a descending spiral that would end without exception in death from overdose, or suicide.
"Refrain," Kallen muttered with disgust. She stood there, baring witness as her countrymen acting like fools, reliving their most cherish moments of the lives. Her eyes soften a bit when she saw the vendor that she saved from those thugs earlier on. "When you add them all up, it eventually breaks you." Kallen said, quoting the very words that Milly said to her. She growled in anger. "That's right, that's the reason why I'm here." Kallen stated this is why she was fighting; she was fighting so that her countrymen could be freed from their oppressors.
"Careful, it's dangerous to run like that." A familiar voice caused her to flinch as her screen suddenly focuses on a familiar woman, her mother.
"Mother," Kallen mumbled as she caught her mother with the hands of her Gloucester when she was about to fall down. She then brought her up as her screen focus solely on her.
"Really Naoto, please I need you to look after your little sister." Hina said to practically no one, her mind a hallucinating her eldest.
Kallen fought back the tears as her heart was almost torn at the sight of her mother. "My God, how weak of a woman are you mother? First you give in to Britannia, then to a man, and now this. My brother is gone forever, let him go." Kallen shouted as a hail of bullets suddenly brought her back to reality as she jerked on her cockpit as the limb that was holding her shield was blown off.
She shifted her gazed and noticed a Knightmare, a Knightpolice. "The Knightpolice?" Kallen shouted as she moved her frame to avoid it getting damaged by the Knightpolice's Machine Pistol.
"Isn't that a police unit?" Yoshida inquired, surprised that the police was actually in cahoots with the smugglers.
"They're in with this deal, TAMAKI." Ohgi shouted as he glared at the man who was to supposed to scout the area.
"Don't look at me, when I check it out, there wasn't any cops involved." Tamaki defended himself while Zero stood there, unresponsive.
The only thing Kallen could do at the moment was dodge; even with one arm, her frame could and would have easily taken her down her opponent with no problem at all but she feared, even though unconsciously. She cannot return fire for that might cause her mother to be caught in the cross fire.
The pilot of the Knightpolice wasn't that good of an aim but because her movements were limited, some of the bullets were hitting her frame and at that moment, she thanked Lelouch for fortifying the armor of her Gloucester.
Kallen frowned as her gazed was fixed to the prone form of her mother. "You're in the way." Kallen yelled as she pushed several controls from her controls. She was about to throw her away but something in her, something that in her heart prevented her from doing so. "Damn it! I don't need you, I don't want you." Kallen shouted as she tried so hard to throw her away but something was preventing her. It was so easy but something, something was preventing her from doing so.
She was so distracted that she wasn't able to avoid the shot that was aimed to her Landspinner propulsion system, causing her Gloucester to fumble and skid to the ground. Kallen grunted as her gazed fell on her mother once again.
"Kallen, Naoto," Her mother whispered tenderly.
Kallen's eyes softened a bit until she was forced back to reality as she shielded her mother from the hail of bullets that came from the Machine Pistol. Kallen shouted in her sheer helplessness, it was all that woman's fault.
"Go on, run." Kallen exclaimed loudly as she once again gazed at her mother. "Get moving you idiot." Kallen shouted in frustration as her mother stood up and gazed at the large Gloucester that was protecting her.
"I'm here for you." That caused Kallen to flinch. "I'm here for you, Kallen. I'm here as I always have been." Her mother with a loving tone and with a gentle and loving smile.
Kallen suddenly relieved those moments where her mother, regardless if she was being treated like dirt by her, smile to her lovingly. Those memories caused her heart to clench in pain. "Then that's... That's why you stayed in his house? You stayed there for me? You fool! ...Or maybe I'm the fool." Kallen mumbled in sorrow as she remembers those cryptic words that Zero told her in Shinjuku Ghetto.
'…treat your mother well; she has her reasons for staying.' Those words echoed in her mind as the Knightmare behind her slowly walks towards her fallen Gloucester, an Anti-Knightmare Frame Combat Knife on its hands.
Its movements were halted when a missile suddenly hits its leg, enveloping it in a block of ice.
"Eat Liquid Nitrogen, you corrupted filth." Lelouch shouted as he appeared from nowhere, an anti-Knightmare Bazooka mounted on his shoulder. He took aim once again and fired another shot, this one hitting the Knightmare on the cockpit, enveloping the cockpit into solid ice, freezing the pilot to death in the process. "Liquid Nitrogen missiles, functional, I just hope that works as well." Lelouch mumbled, as he threw the bazooka to the ground and run towards Kallen's fallen Gloucester and her mother.
(Scene Change)
"You okay there?" Lelouch asked as he approached the disheartened Kallen. The Black Knights have gathered everyone in the warehouse affected by the Refrain drugged and have them treated by their doctors. It was lucky that Lelouch was able to recruit a few doctors and nurses to assist them. The victims were now resting on the Black Knights personal Infirmary.
"I'm fine, don't worry." Kallen answered as she sat near her mother's bed. "Thanks for the save."
"Don't mention it and I was given the opportunity to test my Liquid Nitrogen Missiles. It was more effective than our anti-Knightmare missiles and I think I can attach some of it to the armaments of our Knightmares." Lelouch informed her before gazing back at her mother. "She is a strong woman." Lelouch complimented as he put an arm around Kallen's shoulder.
"I don't understand her; she suffered all that pain, for me." Kallen muttered with a pain filled voice as tears slowly fell down her eyes.
"A mother will do anything to be with their children; they can suffer through hell, walk through flames, and slay armies just to protect their children. Your mother is the epitome of that." Lelouch exclaimed softly as he caress her hair gently. "...You shouldn't take her for granted, Kallen." Lelouch advised softly, as Kallen stared at him. "You never know what you have...until one day...it's gone..." At this, Lelouch had to fight back the memories that threaten to overwhelm him.
"I was horrible to her all these years… I thought she was stupid and weak for staying… and now that I finally find out why she stayed…" Kallen broke down again, quiet sobs shaking her body.
Lelouch shook his head as he enveloped her in an embrace. "She'll be okay, Kallen, she'll recover. She is strong Kallen, she is just like you." Lelouch whispered gently. "You two will live happily again, I'll make sure of it and so will you." Lelouch stated with an assuring tone.
Kallen was a bit unnerved at that as her eyes met his. "How could you be so sure that were going to win against Britannia, against your damn family?" Kallen asked, hoping, craving for an answer.
Lelouch could only smile bitterly as he fought back the nightmares that haunted him in his past lifetime. "We succeeded in the past." Lelouch whispered, loud enough for her to hear. "We defeated Britannia before but there were so many sacrifices, most of them unnecessary that it haunts me to this day." Lelouch said as Kallen stared at him confusedly.
Lelouch ignored her stare as he suddenly looked up. "Fate gave me a second chance to redeem myself and I'm taking it. My revolution shall be right this time, no more mistakes, no more unnecessary deaths or sacrifices." Lelouch added as he gazed at Kallen.
"What are you talking about Lelouch?" Kallen asked, confused. The way Lelouch talk was like he had done this before and it unnerved her. His voice was like the voice of a harden General who had won countless and had lost everything in the process.
Lelouch could only smile sadly at her as he removed his contacts, causing his right Geass to flash before her. "Forgive me Kallen." And with that, Kallen was once again put under the effects of a Geass. Memories flooded her mind, memories that belong to her in her past lifetime.
Her eyes could only widen as her body slowly adapt at the memories that she was slowly receiving.
(Scene Change)
"So you came after all." Lelouch said with a low tone as he stared at Kallen while sitting on his bed. Kallen was wearing a crimson robe while she stared at Lelouch passively. "If you're here to kill me then I understand." Lelouch exclaimed as Kallen took a step forward while locking the door behind her. They were currently in Lelouch's personal quarters in the base.
"I want answers." Kallen said firmly.
"Ask away then." Lelouch exclaimed as he awaited Kallen's verdict. "But if you want to ask why we're reliving the Black Rebellion, you're asking the wrong demon."
"I don't care about that, not yet." Kallen countered as took another step. "I have a lot of questions but I don't care about them right now. I'll force an explanation out of you in the future." Kallen scoffed as she glared at Lelouch. "You lied to us, you used…."
"Do I have a choice for that matter?" Lelouch interrupted her with a glare. "You certainly don't understand my dear, in a war, especially against the very country that governs over one-third of the world; you must do things that are against your morals. Did I feel sorry for some of my decisions, yes I did, and did I regret it, no because it brought us victories and that is all that matters." Lelouch stated solemnly.
"Then was I just another pawn for you, was I just another soldier for you, answer me?" Kallen demanded, tears building in the corner of her eyes as she remember those words that Lelouch uttered to her when they betrayed him.
"You were never a pawn, you were too good, too important to be just a pawn, and you weren't even a chess piece to me." Lelouch exclaimed truthfully. "You are the one person aside from C.C. and Nunnally that I can't afford to lose. C.C. was my left hand, you were my right, you two are the only ones that will break me internally if I lose even one or both of you and trust me, once I fight with nothing to lose, I will become worse than Satan himself." Lelouch stated firmly with an expression that can be equivalent to cold fury.
Kallen wasn't fazed by that but internally, it was a different story. She quickly closes the distance between her and Lelouch and stood in front of him a couple of inches away, her emotionless face caused Lelouch's heart to beat faster by the second. "Tell me, and you better answer this honestly, when we betrayed you, when you said those things to me, why, why did you tell me to live on? What do I truly mean to you?" Kallen asked as trailed of tears fell from her eyes.
"How long have you been hanging on that silly question girl?" Lelouch asked, earning him a hard glare from her. "And would you even believe if I say the truth?" Lelouch asked once again as he stared at Kallen right in the eye.
Kallen stared was like she was burning a hole right through his soul. "Try me," Kallen challenged as Lelouch stood up and gazed at her with eyes filled with emotions.
"At that point in the way, I lost a lot of things, Shirley, Euphemia, and I even thought I lost Nunnally at that point, you think I can afford to lose another person close to my heart, especially a person that I love." Those words made Kallen flinch as her expression falters a bit. "And even though I hurt you, even though I broke your heart, it's not as bad as it would be if I had told you back then… and honestly Why did I tell you to live on? It was because I loved you Kallen. You needed to survive and live a happy life. You couldn't do that with me. I was too deep into my sins, and I never deserved someone like you."Kallen slapped him at that.
"YOU BLOODY IDIOT.I LOVE YOU TOO, AND I DIDN'T CARE ABOUT YOUR SINS, I WOULD HAVE LOVED EITHER WAY." Kallen shouted as she slapped him again. "I was supposed to be your Knight of Zero, not Suzaku, I was better than him. Why did you choose him, not me, am I not good enough for you?" Kallen asked, and this time, tears were now falling from her eyes uncontrollably.
"Your right, you are better than Suzaku but I cannot kill you like I did Suzaku. I put a Geass on him when I died and that Geass is this, 'This is punishment for you too. You'll continue to wear the mask as an ally of justice. You will no longer live your life as Suzaku Kururugi. You shall sacrifice the ordinary pleasures of your life for the benefit of the world for eternity.'You think I can die with a smile on my face like last time knowing that I put that curse onto you, no I can't." Lelouch said with a tone that betrays all emotions.
A moment of silence fell on the two as they merely stood in front of each other. After a while, Kallen asked her last question. "Why are you seducing me, if you already have C.C., why do you want to have me?" Kallen asked, this time with a blush.
Lelouch chuckled a bit; she was cute when she blushes. "Honestly, I already gave my life for the world once, am I not allowed to be a little selfish. I don't want a country, I don't want money I just want the two women who own my heart." Lelouch answered sincerely as a ghost of a smile graced Kallen's lips.
"Is that all?"
"That and, seeing how beautiful you are, I figured you got married and I was seducing you so you can forget whoever your husband was in my last life time." Lelouch admitted, albeit begrudgingly.
"I see," Kallen mumbled as she began to undo her fabric belt. "You are allowed to be selfish, I guess but I can't believe I have to share you with C.C. but the hell with it, at least I'll have you." Kallen said as she dropped the robe around her to the ground.
Lelouch was torn from either grinning lecherously or from blushing like crazy at the sight before him. In front of him was Kallen, her naked body was displayed in all of its glory in front of him. From her graceful neck, plump breasts, slender waist, and shapely legs, Lelouch could see that there was nothing girlish about her; she was all womanly curves. "You said that the time when I am willingly able to offer my body to you, you will take me right there and then." Kallen said as she refused to look at him in the eye, a small blush adorning her face. "Here and now, I'm offering my heart, body, and soul to you. Do as you wish but take responsibility afterwards." Lelouch nodded as he put a hand over her shoulder.
(Lemon Time)
"I'll make this as enjoyable for you as possible." Lelouch said as he closed the distance between them and capture her lips in a passionate kiss once again. Without breaking the kiss, Lelouch slowly laid Kallen to his bed before stripping all off his clothing; it was quite unfair if she was the only one naked. Kallen gasped a bit as she got a look at his throbbing member; Lelouch took her state of shock as a sign of approval. Lelouch then nuzzled his lips against her jaw line, planting soft kisses down her neckline, momentarily stopping on that pleasure spot that she found last afternoon, nibbling on it for a while eliciting an involuntary moan from Kallen. His light kisses trailed down her collarbone and moved towards her ripe breasts.
In a matter of seconds, the two were tangled with each other's bodies. Lelouch started licking and sucking on Kallen's breasts, wanting to taste her sanity flesh since the moment he saw her naked. He licked through the valley of her breasts and then up again, circling her left nipple. He clamped his mouth down on her nipple and sucked lightly, flicking the nipple with his tongue, Kallen moaned in delight at this. He then ran his tongue along her nipples, his tongue circling around her brown aureoles and licking her teat. He then closed his mouth around one of her nipples and sucked on it hard. Kallen's whimpering cries echoed through the room as she was enjoying her lover's attention to her breasts.
He put his hand on her other breast and began to slowly caressing and kneading it gently causing her to tremble in pleasure. He then runs his free hand down her thighs, occasionally caressing her silk like skin until he reached the entrance of her womanhood. Parting her legs slightly, he slowly pushed one finger in and inwardly smirked with satisfaction when he heard her gasp.
His lips slowly left her breast and moved to nibble on her ear playfully as he slowly placed another finger inside of her, as if he were trying to prepare her for what was to come. "My Queen, you're getting so wet; you really want it don't you?" Lelouch teased playfully.
"You're good," Kallen was able to gasp as she felt his gentle hands moving inside of her, pumping in and out of her causing her to moan in pleasure and bliss.
"I was corrupted by the best." Lelouch admitted with a chuckled and before she could reply, Lelouch brought his lips to hers again as they fiercely French kissed each other. Lelouch took her hand from her lower regions as he grinded his body against hers; his harden penis nudging against her pelvis. He knew what Kallen wanted and he would give it to her, but not now, not yet. She has to beg for it first.
He kissed her long and deeply before breaking free of her mouth and starting to nibble on her neck before flicking her earlobe with his tongue. He started making his way down, his tongue trailing over her skin and it made her shiver while letting out a low guttural moan. He lingered on her breasts for a moment, passing each nipple and giving each a thorough lick. He ventured further down, lapping across her belly which made her giggle before he arrived at her crotch.
Lelouch spread Kallen's legs apart and held on firmly when she reflexively tried to close it. He stared at Kallen's womanhood, her delicate soft pink petals flared wide with arousal and glistening with wetness, her prominent clitoris easily seen. Lelouch licked his lips in hunger and lust as he plunged his hot tongue into Kallen's most sacred Region. The sharp, indrawn breath she gave as he spread her outer lips with his tongue was replace by loud moans of pleasure as he gently lapped at the sweat nectar that flowed from her delicate petals. He truly found her taste absolutely delicious, a taste of sweet strawberry with a hint of red wine, it was quite a delicacy.
Kallen arch her back as Lelouch sucked on her clitoris, his tongue circling around her clit, occasionally licking it. He grazed his teeth at the highly-sensitive organ before biting it and that was all Kallen could take as she climax for the first time tonight, her essences flowing forth. Kallen laid still onto the bed, tingling from her orgasm, her body covered in a shiny sheen of her own sweat.
Lelouch lifted his face from between Kallen's legs before plunging his tongue, cleaning her nectar off her nether lips. Kallen cried out, her body stiffening once again as Lelouch cleaned her crotch with his tongue, lapping on her nectar greedily. She whimpered and moaned as his tongue explored her, savoring her. He lapped up and down first, and then briefly closed his mouth over her clit and sucking on it lightly. She was brought back to the brink of orgasm by his skillful tongue but he did not allow her to release.
His face came up and he looked at her, his expression one of love and affection. She let out a moan of regret; she hadn't wanted him to stop.
Lelouch crawl up Kallen's body to position himself above her, his tool at the entrance of her womanhood and felt her hitch in anticipation. "Tell me you love me…" Looking up at him, her eyes glazed with desire, Kallen whimpered.
"You know I do…"
"Yes I do but I want to hear you say it." Lelouch purred as he teased her entrance by slowly and torturously rubbing his manhood on her nether lips. Kallen groaned in pleasure at that as Lelouch teased the most delicate part of her body.
"Don't tease me like that, I beg of you." Kallen said in a defeated tone.
"Tell me you love me and I'll give you your release, beg for my touch and I shall make you moan in ecstasy." Bound and determined to conquer her with passion's sword, he was pleased to see Kallen like this; it gave him great pleasure knowing that he can melt the fierce heart of his captive Queen.
With her will broken, Kallen conceded as she craved for Lelouch to be one with her. "I love you, Lelouch", she whispered brokenly, "And I need you…more then you could ever know… Take me and make me yours in body, heart and soul, my emperor, my love, my savior." Kallen begged and at that moment, Lelouch's heart sore to the heavens. He had claimed his knight.
Lelouch, knowing that this would hurt, leaned over her and kissed her deeply. The moment their mouths opened and their tongues met in a fierce dance, he slowly started entering her. He had his eyes closed but hers were wide open as the sensation registered to her. She made no sound but grabbed his head with both hands, locking him in place as she kissed him back with everything she had, trying to muffle the screams of pain as her hymen was broken.
He took his time to enter her completely. He knew she was a virgin, so he was being careful with her to avoid any necessary pain. He didn't wish any pain upon her; he had caused her enough in his last lifetime. When he was completely inside her, he broke the kiss. He drew back and looked at her face before kissing the tears that fell from her eyes.
"Are you okay?"
"Please be gentle." Kallen all but begged as Lelouch nodded with a smile as he started making love with her, giving her time to adjust to his length being inside of her. Kallen moaned rigorously as the pain slowly receded and was replace by a pleasure like she had never felt before, joining his right hand with her left, he started to gradually build up speed and in no time at all, he was now pumping his meat into her like there was no tomorrow.
"Oh SHIT LELOUCH!" Kallen cried as he continued to piston in and out of her cunt. In his life that sweet voice of hers was music to his ears, it delighted him that he could make the women he loved feel good.
Lelouch continued to thrust deeper and deeper into her. He wanted to give Kallen everything he had. Kallen then turned to her side as Lelouch continued to side fuck her. How long this went on, they did not know. They lost all sense of time as the world around them seemed to fade away; the only thing they could see, hear, and feel was each other.
She couldn't take this much longer. She knew she was going to cum. And she was going to cum hard.
"LLLLEEELLLLOOOUUCCCHHH...MMMM...MY EMPEROR...I'M GOING TO..." She took a breath then she felt it. She screamed her lover's name as she finally reached the peak of her orgasm. Lelouch could feel the dripping wetness of Kallen's cum covering his manhood. He tried to ignore the sensation, but he could feel he was close too. "Kallen I'm close!" Lelouch moaned as he sped up his thrusts into her.
"Oh Lelouch...don't hold bag!" Kallen pleaded. "RELEASE IT INSIDE ME PLEASE!" she screamed while clamping her legs around his waist. She wanted every last drop from Lelouch to be inside of her."OH Kallen! AAAAAAAAAhhhh!" He shouted as he felt his manhood throb. He then unleashed his warm seeds into her womb. After a few seconds he dropped back onto the bed to catch his breath.
Although she was breathing heavily, a fair smile crossed Kallen's lips while she started to recover from their love making. She ran her delicate hands over Lelouch's chest. This is what she wanted, this is what she craved. "Thank you Lelouch...You don't know how long I've waited for that." She whispered as she gave a lick on his cheeks Lelouch didn't answer her as he took her lips once more for another kiss, this one more desperate than before.
"We are not done yet..."Lelouch warned as he took her hand and brought it over to his dick. It was still hard, almost as if nothing happened. "My body still craves you." Lelouch whispered lovingly and huskily.
"Oh my!" Kallen answered. She was quite surprise, Lelouch, the Lelouch that she knew was not known for his stamina or strength for that matter. How could he still be up for one more round was beyond her? The woman started to look almost fearful when she noticed that the look of hunger did not die on Lelouch's face.
Lelouch then leaned over and placed a deep kiss on her rosy lips, his mouth moving along her delicate body, planting flowery kisses along her glistening skin, his hands then gently guiding her to turn over onto her stomach. He then kissed up and down her back, occasionally licking her spine, sending shivers down her body. His hands touched her everywhere from hips, to her breast before groping her shapely ass, lips continuing to move south. Licks and kisses flowed down the bend of her lower back. His tongue made a trail of saliva along the edge of her rump and still he continued till finally...
Kallen gulped deeply. This feeling was amazingly pleasurable that it was slowly driving her to insanity. She didn't know what Lelouch was doing, but she would rather die than have him stop. Then the woman buried herself deep into the bed. Her body shivered as she felt Lelouch use his tongue on... "OOH LLLELOUCH!"
Lelouch continued to lick out her anus. In other's point of view, what he was doing would have been disgusting but she had learn from his love making with C.C. that every body of a woman is pure and delicacy of the own. Lelouch licked all around Kallen's rectum, his thick hot tongue swirling around the rim. He then plunged his tongue deeper into her and whirled it along the sides.
"LELOUCH, YOUR GONNA….!" Kallen cried. She accidently raised her ass into the air, unconsciously taunting him. Lelouch's violet eyes shifted as his next target came into sight and cannot help himself but grin with hunger. The young man withdrew his lips from her ass, as he prompt up her butt into the air.
Kallen was about to question why he stopped, but from the look in his eyes it only took her a few seconds to put the pieces together before a frightful expression cross her face. "Lelouch, please don't, I don't think you can fit that... AAAAAHHhhhhhh!" She screamed as she felt Lelouch's throbbing member pierce her anal.
Lelouch continued to pound his dick in and out of Kallen's ass. "Lelouch...Go slower...Please. It hurts..." Kallen pleaded with him. But Lelouch had no intention of slowing down. Kallen's ass felt much better than being in her womanhood. Her asshole put a tight clamp on his cock and the heat that he was receiving was amazing, so he knew he wouldn't be able to last long.
After a few minutes of steady fucking, Kallen let out her own mixture of whimpers and moans. Although it did hurt at first, she was starting to relish the feeling of Lelouch exploring her ass with his cock. Her breasts swayed back and forth as he continued to fuck her doggie style. Her nipples rubbing up against the cum and sweat soaked sheets. Lelouch continued to drill into Kallen when an idea hit him. He then leaned back and pulled his queen back on top of him, her back was now resting on his chest so now her ass was riding his cock. He continued to thrust upwards into her, digging his pole deeper into her anus. His hands then moved up and groped her breast and began to knead it roughly, her nipples being pinched with his fingers while her soft flesh was being squeeze. Kallen was beginning to think that Lelouch was trying to milk her breasts.
Kallen cried loudly as she felt her ass nearly being ripped open and Lelouch's harsh treatment on her breast didn't help. She closed her eyes and started to endure the pleasant yet still painful feeling, the wild pleasure ride that Lelouch was giving her. 'Oh my God, I'm gonna climax again...' Kallen realized as she felt Lelouch thrusting into her become even wilder. She then leaned up against him, as she felt Lelouch starting to finger her crotch.
"Kallen don't hold back..." Lelouch whispered into her ear before he started to lick her ear. "God, your body is so amazing." He chanted while toying with the petals of her drenched vagina.
"Stop teasing me, damn it." She answered back. She then leaned back and kissed him deeply. Just that instant Lelouch pinched her clit, which sent her over the edge.
She screamed loudly as she experienced a very powerful orgasm that surged through her body. The woman's body tensed up for several seconds, and then she was limp in his arms. Lelouch only got a few more thrusts off before he came. When he came his whole body erupted, his rod pumping sticky white seed all into Kallen's ass. His cock head spurted a few times as it emptied itself. Lelouch leaned on the wall behind him as Kallen rested on his chest, both of them panting heavily.
"Wow that was, wow." Lelouch breathed heavily as a ghost of a smile graced Kallen's lips.
"I'm not going to walk straight tomorrow." Kallen whispered as she felt Lelouch's hand playing on her right breast.
"We are not going to leave this room period." Lelouch whispered to her and before Kallen could ask why, the door of Lelouch's bathroom suddenly open as C.C. stepped out. She too was naked and her womanhood was glistening with cum thanks to her constant masturbating.
"C.C.," Kallen mumbled as the smile on C.C.'s face actually scared her.
"Cera," C.C. corrected her. "Cera Celeste, that's my name and as my lover, you will call me by that, in private of course." C.C. said seductively as she approached Kallen and Lelouch.
Kallen was about to say something but was stopped when Lelouch once again thrust his still harden cock up her ass while her hands resume the harsh caressing of her breasts. Kallen moan loudly as she has yet to recover from her orgasm making both her ass and womanhood extremely sensitive.
C.C. didn't care as she leaned over Kallen's prone body, capturing Kallen's lips into a kiss as she slid two fingers in her vagina. She began to move her hips to thrusts her fingers in tandem with Lelouch's cock while her thump rubs Kallen's clit. C.C.'s tongued overwhelmed Kallen's as she invade her mouth with hers while the constant movement of Lelouch's hand were causing her breast to numb in pleasure.
All throughout the night, the blissful moans from Kallen echoed and flooded the room as the emperor and witch merely focus on driving Kallen into a blissful ecstasy, making sure that she would be addicted to the two of them after the day after tomorrow comes. In short, they drove her to sexual frenzy.
