Ikebukuro Ghetto
Timestamp...Sometime After Narita. Who Cares About Specifics, It's Non-Canon

It was a dark time for the JLF. Their mountain fortress in the Narita Range had been destroyed, crushed under countless tons of rock and mud during the raging battle between the Black Knights and the Britannian Army, subsequently dug out and blown apart afterwards by the Army during Search And Rescue operations.

The commanding officers however, managed to escape due to the distraction in the battle caused by the involvement of Tohdoh of Miracles and his Four Holy Swords. This was both fortunate and unfortunate. Fortunate, because with their leaders alive, even with their operational center and materiel were crushed, thus removing them as a major contending faction in the war in Area Eleven, the spirit of the JLF remained intact. It was unfortunate, because this caused a cell of JLF in the ghetto of Ikebukuro to, instead of giving up or going to join the infinitely more prosperous and professional Black Knights, decided to stage a ghetto-wide revolt, drawing the irritated attention of Her Highness, the Imperial Princess of Britannia Cornelia Li Britannia, Witch of Britannia, Conqueror of Areas 13-18 and Viceroy of Area Eleven, who sent Jeremiah Gottwald, former Royal Guard, Former Purist and Devicer of the Seventh-Generation Frame Bors with a company of Sutherlands and a contingent of her personal Gloucester Guard to pacify the resistance.

The Black Knights heard of this, and delighted at the opportunity to destroy a significant portion of the Britannian Army's Knightmare Forces in the Area, crush Cornelia's vaunted Guard, and potentially eliminate or capture the Experimental Frame Bors and its Devicer. Zero, The Black Messiah, the Dark King, Lord of War and Strategy, was occupied with logistics and planning for further and more devastating operations against Britannia, and so sent his second-in-command Draco, the Samurai of Deception, the Lightning Marksmen and Devicer of the Black Dragon Frame Ryūō, to Ikebukuro with a select group of Burai and a team of the devastating Sakanade.

In accordance to the prophecy - er, as detailed by Zero's plan, the Black Knights' forces arrived in Ikebukuro mere minutes after hostilities erupted between the Britannian forces and the JLF cell, and engaged their distracted foe. It was mere seconds after the first shots when Tamaki, who the previous knight - er, night, had engaged in a drunken Call of Duty LAN Party, accidentally commented out loud on an open channel.

JLF 2: Alright, now I'm a little lost here. Who's fighting who?
JLF 1: Well, basically, we're a conquered native people whose former nation has been overthrown and occupied by the military forces of an imperialistic government situated elsewhere. That nation wishes to maintain this, and other, underlying colonies. This Area in particular has multiple resistance factions that occasionally work at cross-purposes but ultimately fight for an independent sovereign nation. Meanwhile, they fight to suppress our righteous resistance against their suppressive and discriminatory government. Therefore, and thusly, we are all stuck, in a giant, Team Deathmatch.
BORS (JEREMIAH) + DRACO:...

In an instant, the commanders set upon the JLF cell with fury and madness, destroying the few Burai and Glasgow the rebels had within minutes before going about their bloody work with the poor men on the ground. Explosions from rockets tore them apart limb from limb, gatling gun shells meant for use against tanks and Knightmare Frames shredded them into unrecognizable bits, and soon after, they were picked up and bodily thrown away, with force to make them splatter against the armored hulls of both factions' Knightmares, which stood still in shock at what their leaders did, war crimes the like of which would have had them strung up on the spot by their necks being committed without thought. Eventually, with blood, rubble and flame covering the small battlefield, both leaders Frames turned to the other, nodded, and led their horrified forces away.

- The Momentary Survivor -

About 15 minutes later

Sputtering, coughing up gobbets of blood, the sole JLF survivor, hands bloodied and torn from the tight grip on his control yokes during the fight, crawled out of his Burai's torn cockpit pod, rolling over the shoulder and dropping to the ground. Sitting for a moment, he reflected on the event of the day.

I knew that idiot would get us killed.

With a groan, he stood shakily and almost fell over, if not for the sudden support he found in front of him. Feeling around, he could feel it was a person.

"Thank Kami!" The survivor cried, using the person to steady himself. "Please! Help me! My friends and I, we were-" He cut himself off as he saw who he was talking to.

Bartender suit...sunglasses...blond hair...

"H-hhhh-Heiwajima Shizuo!" Just then, the survivor noticed the front of Shizuo's suit, smeared with the blood from his hands.

Before he could apologize, plead for his life, or pretty much even scream, the avatar of violence and rage hit the temporary survivor with an uppercut to the jaw, sending him rocketing straight up into the sky sans his outer clothing, which fluttered about before settling on top of the wrecked Burai's cockpit. Grabbing the Burai's finger, Shizuo wrenched its limb clean out of its shoulder, before turning and swinging the makeshift bat, hitting the JLF survivor as he fell back to Earth.

One hour, twelve minutes later, he landed in China, the Forbidden City to be specific, and the quarters of the Eunuchs to be even more specific, causing the roof to collapse upon them, pretty much killing them through crushed organs and bones.

- The Author -

Wow...that was so unoriginal...

("I'll say! And you didn't even have the guts to put: Copying off of: Code MENT")

What the- What are you doing here K'GoN!

("Hell, I'm bored! What do you expect? Killer's Realm basically bogged down, and I don't see you doing that Gundam 00 sequel fic anytime soon!")

Shut up! I'm about to explain that!

Ahem.

Alright, first off, I'm sorry I couldn't get a full story chapter out. I am working on it though, it's just a little tough to decide exactly how Shirley's going to react given the differing circumstances, and I'm a little unsure as to how to resolve the Learme/Ian conflict at this point, although I do have ideas.

There is other news however.

After much contemplation, I have decided I will not do a sequel to Gundam 00: The Meaning of Zero. Neither am I going to do a sequel for this story.

Partly because, to be honest, I see a lot of issues with The Meaning of Zero, and it was probably a bit of Early Installment Weirdness in some cases-

("Trope!")

...but the other reason is, I have decided that, instead of doing a story each for a season of Gundam 00 and Code Geass, I will instead write as if all the events of the series happened in a single, fifty episode show instead of the two twenty-five episode seasons we got due to Executive Meddling.

("Trope!")

And also, I'll probably do a lot of the stuff in The Meaning of Zero rewrite differently, using the same style I'm using right now for Killer's Realm and The Demon and The Dragon. Word of God.

("Trope!")

And now, I've been neglecting Review Replies, so I'll go ahead and do that.

Review Replies:

Raidentensho: It's nice to see such an avid reader. Thank you.
Eh, I'm not sure yet how the two are going to end up, but I'll certainly try and make Mao's fate satisfying on some level.
Neither can I.

ArmedRagnarok: Thanks!
...It does? Huh. I guess it does, kind of. Yeah, Crysis 2 was fun.
Well, I'm not going to let it die. That would make me a hypocrite.

Kojiro Kun: Yep.
Neither can I.

Thorfaxdragonkin: Hmmm...
I'm glad my story could help.

On a parting note, I don't suppose any of you guys could come and chat at my forums? Lord knows, I could use the help to get my literary neurons firing.
