Author's Note: Hey! Since it's been about a year or two since I've submitted something useful to , I decided to make an On A Roll series. It's made up of all the oneshots, crackshots, or anything else I've made this week for (Which is really little). Hope you enjoy! This is the fifth of the On A Roll series.

Disclaimer: I don't own any of these wonderful characters. They all belong to their respective owners whom I highly respect. I'm broke, so I obviously don't earn any profit from this.

Lelouch of the Condo 11

Chapter Twenty-one: Proposal

"Milly, will you marry me?"

Everyone stared at Rivalz, the navy blue haired boy who was standing on one knee, had a small velvet box open to reveal a shiny diamond (fake) ring, and had an extremely happy and flowery aura. It was blinding. It had even blinded Rivalz himself. Gino was proud. The woman he had been proposing to, simply blinked.

"Eh?"


A few minutes later, Gino was left to comfort poor Rivalz after he was "rejected".

"Don't worry, she probably just misunderstood it all!" Gino said.

That only made Rivalz cry even harder.

And by rejected, it meant that Rivalz's aura was so bright that he didn't realize that he was proposing to Cecile and NOT Milly.

Gino was nonetheless still proud.


"I propose a challenge!"

Kallen was in the middle of slurping her noodles. She looked awkward; chopsticks in one hand, other supporting a plastic bowl of instant ramen and noodles halfway in her mouth. Her brows were narrowed, and she stared at Suzaku.

"Wha-?"

Suzaku inhaled and stroke a heroic pose.

"I-must-win-this-challenge-against-the-other-knight-to-bring-pride-and-joy-to-the-kingdom-and-my-dear-lovely-princess-Euphemia!" he said in one breath. Kallen's noodles fell back into the bowl. She sat there, mouth agape this time.

"Excuse me?"


And that was how Kallen and Suzaku stood on seperate ends of the parking lot, wearing bulky suits of armor which looked like they were for cosplay, lances in hand, crowd cheering or face palming and causing a distressed Jeremiah to be even more distressed. ("Damsel in distress"?)

Rivalz still hadn't completely stopped sulking, but he clumsily managed to blow the trumpet Gino had magically produced from his pocket. Why the hell he had a trumpet in his pocket, no one knew. He didn't even know himself, actually.

And since no one knew what was there to say, Cornelia just glared with Guilford, Clovis clapped with a maniac grin on his face, Lloyd pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose, Milly smiled, Cecile watched with curiosity, Rivalz thought of what to say next while blowing his trumpet once more, Lulu face palmed, CC smirked, Nunna, Kaguya and Tianzi cheered, Gino flowered, Anya texted, Shirley sighed, Arthur meowed, Jeremiah fussed over the parking space they were wasting, Xingke's eye twitched, Euphie fantasized, Suzaku held himself up with a proud aura and Kallen was just plain confused.

"And let the battle between the two knights begin!"

Kallen immediately got into a fighting stance. Suzaku waved his lance in the air for a moment as Euphie cheered and then charged towards Kallen. The lances struck each other and broke. No one seemed to care as they produced swords out of nowhere.

Lulu continued face palming and CC munched on her pizza.

The fight raged on and every now and then the contenders managed to taunt each other or glare for a fraction of a second. Oh yes, because they could break the laws of the universe. They could bend time at their will, causing the world to slow down and then speed up again as blades clashed, sparks flew, hair splayed and teeth gritted.

One would strike, the other dodged, a blow was returned and then hits were narrowly avoided. Because one cannot hit another and give major injuries. Oh no, major injuries only kill you, and our story is not yet finished. Who wishes to die?

Oh yeah, and this is anime. Anime characters either live or die.

After an hour of fighting, Nunna, Kaguya and Tianzi started to get bored. Euphie stopped cheering and leaned her head on her palm. Rivalz stopped counting the time. Gino just swayed slightly every time someone dodged or hit, but he was silent.

And one more hour later, both knights had shed their armor, fighting only in their normal clothes underneath (Euphie and Gino had just pulled the armor over them, unexpectedly). They weren't even as fast anymore, but it became rhythmic. Aim. Slash. Dodge. Step. Hit. Aim. Slash. Dodge. Step. Hit.

"What was-" Kallen began, but dodged the point of Suzaku's sword narrowly. Oh yeah, and anime characters always dodge things narrowly.

"What is the point of this?"

Suzaku panted as he dodged Kallen's flying blade. He tried to land a kick but knew it was impossible. He had already failed several Suzacopters already, anyway.

"The point is-so that-I can-bring-joy-and pride-to-my-princess!"

"ARGH!"

Suzaku raised his sword above his head, Kallen on target below. She rolled out of the way and landed a kick on Suzaku's side, causing him to release his sword. She was about to slam hers down when Suzaku pulled her leg and made her slip and fall.

"GAH!"

"Urgh..."

Both respected knights were hardly recognizable anymore. They were both on the ground; Kallen was face flat on the floor, not bothering to get up while Suzaku lay sprawled on his back a few feet away.


"My knight?"

Suzaku looked up to the face of Euphie, pink hair covering her face like a curtain and small smile on her lips. She helped him stand up and as he looked around. Kallen and the others had gone.

"I'm sorry I failed you,"

Euphie giggled.

"No, I don't want my knight to offer his life just for an hour of my happiness."

They looked at each other.

"There are more important things you can do, Suzaku."

He smiled.

"Right!"

And they intertwined their fingers together.

"Shall I find you a new necklace, my princess?"

"Oh, I found a pretty one yesterday! I think it matched my hair,"

"Anything matches your beauty. But not all deserve to be seen with your lovely face,"

"Thank you! What kind words my knight gives me. Hearing them is a gift in itself,"

"...Alright."

"...But I still want that necklace,"

"...Okay!"

And they lived happily ever after...for the rest of that day.

I'm sorry this is late. As I said before, school's here so I can only update on weekends. I'm sorry if I don't update weekly anymore, and just blame school for it.

I tried to make this longer. Did I make it longer?

Now, now. Read and Review! Don't Read and Run, my lovelies. (And I repeat. Read and Review, mein freund. Read and Review) I love hearing/reading what you have to say/write/type!
