Trouble Brewing

Charles had just given his live address from Pendragon regarding Euphemia's status and the regards of the Special Administrative Zone and the loud chants hailing Britannia continued in the great hall by many Britannian citizens as Charles raised his fist in the air with determination. Afterwards, Charles left the podium and went on his way and someone appeared and accompanied him and it was Bismarck Waldstein, the Knight of One and who was the strongest knight of the Holy Britannian Empire. There were a few government officials who met with Charles and sang praises to the 98th Britannian Emperor. Charles gave the expression that was uninterested and went on his way ignoring them with Bismarck following him.

"Bismarck, regarding that report from our collaborator," Charles said.

"Yes Your Majesty," Bismarck said, "the Black Knights have indeed gone and are currently on the island where Peace Mark has made their headquarters."

"So they have arrived just as we expected," Charles said.

"Yes and there's no doubt that they plan to make their way to the Chinese Federation," Bismarck said.

"Very well," Charles said with a grin, "just as I expected. I'll have them deal with them on that island."

"Very good Your Majesty," Bismarck said with a nod and smile, "Would you like to have me go there as well and lead the operation against them?"

"There's no need," Charles said, "despite their incompetence and their foolish behavior in Area 11, they are at least capable of handling this particular assignment."

"Very good Sire," Bismarck said, "I'll contact Master VV at once."

"Perfect," Charles said and then he grinned again as he was pleased, "now then Lelouch, Nunnally, how will you two handle what comes to you?"

Area 11

People in the Area 11 that was formerly Japan were talking about Charles's address and many had their feelings and reactions on the things that Charles had said. Most people in Area 11 as well as other places in the world were surprised about Euphemia's status as Imperial Princess being revoked and that she no longer had a claim to the throne. A group of people were surprised at the outcome while another group of people were also surprised but were also actually pleased at the fact that Euphemia was no longer a Princess of Britannia along with the fact that the 98th Emperor basically condemned the Special Administrative Zone and all those that support it along with Euphemia. It was going to be quite a topic in regards of Euphemia and the Special Zone and there were people who were worried how things were going to be moving forwards after that live address from the Emperor Charles zi Britannia. In the box office within the Special Administrative Zone in the surrounding area of Mt. Fuji, Euphie, Marrybell, and Jeremiah had their concerns with what was going on.

"This is deliberate," Marrybell said.

"Marry?" Euphie spoke.

"It's like Father is provoking people to take action against the zone," Marrybell said upset, "if not more than they have already."

Jeremiah looked on as well and then he thought about Lelouch and Nunnally.

"I'm sure that even they wouldn't have expected this from their father," Jeremiah said in his head.

"I expected this," Euphie said, "I expected that Father would announce my action of giving up my claim to the throne. I expected him to actually say that I'm a disgrace. I can handle that… it would not be the first time… but for him to condemn everyone else, everyone who has helped me make it happen to condemn all those who have signed up and taking part of the zone… that is just unfair," Euphie had her head down, "I'm so stupid."

"Your Highness," Jeremiah said as he and Marrybell were concerned.

"I'm so naïve and stupid," Euphie said berating herself, "I really didn't think things through and now because of this… everyone else is going to be troubled."

"Sister," Marrybell said.

"I can't let this go down," Euphie said determination, "no matter what."

Meanwhile in the ASSEC Hanger, Suzaku, Lloyd, Cecile and other members of the group had watched the live address of the Emperor of Britannia and Suzaku was taking it hard in what the Emperor had said in his address while Cecile and the other members of the Special Corp were surprised to learn about Euphie's status.

"Princess Euphemia is no longer a princess?" Cecile asked.

"That seems to be the case," Lloyd said, "quite frankly, this doesn't surprise me."

"Lloyd," Cecile said.

"No matter how you look at it, there was no way that she was going to be able to do what she was doing without paying a steep price for it," Lloyd said.

"But even so…" Cecile said with a sad tone.

"Isn't that right Suzaku?" Lloyd said looking at Suzaku, "I'm sure you knew about this beforehand."

"…Yeah I did," Suzaku said, "but still for His Majesty the Emperor to say that in the way he did and for him to put down the zone."

"Are you surprised Suzaku?" Lloyd asked.

"Yes I'm surprised," Suzaku said, "Wasn't the Special Zone established because Britannia finally recognized Japan? I don't understand."

"Oh dear, you still don't get it, do you?" Lloyd said.

Suzaku flinched and looked at Lloyd.

"Suzaku," Cecile said with a sad expression, "it is true that zone was approved by the Second Prince and Prime Minster of Britannia himself but it was never discussed and looked over by His Majesty himself and even if it was, it was not going to be looked at favorably by the emperor and he wouldn't care much about it as he would he probably see it as an annoyance of why it was brought to his attention in the first place. For him, it generally goes against what Britannia stands for, for what's it's meant to be."

"So in the end no matter what, Japan will never truly be accepted in Britannian structure," Suzaku said upset as he was clenching his fist.

"I said this before Suzaku," Cecile said, "if it was the case, then the Honorary Britannian System would be pointless."

"Miss Cecile," Suzaku said.

"I know it's unfair," Cecile said, "and I agree that it's unfair. Right now, I think the best that you can do right now is to continue to support and be the sword and shield for Princess Euphemia."

"Y-Yeah, you're right," Suzaku said.

"Quite a way of things are going to go right now," Lloyd said.

Meanwhile within the Viceroy Palace, Cornelia was sitting on her throne and had her thought after her father's live address with Guilford and Darlton standing in attention.

"It was just as I expected from him," Cornelia said.

"Your Highness," Guilford said.

"There's going to be trouble," Cornelia said with dread, "and my sister is going to get caught in the crossfire," Cornelia stood up from her throne, "I can't stand by. No matter what, Euphie is my precious sister and I will protect her no matter what may come."

Guilford and Darlton looked at each other and then back to Cornelia.

"Your Highness, we know and I know that I have said this before," Guilford said, "but I want to say that my place is with you. I am your knight and therefore I will follow you and support any decision that you make. That is my promise when you made me your knight."

"I will also follow and support your decision as well Princess," Darlton said, "our place is with you and that will never change."

"I see," Cornelia said feeling glad, "thank you both of you."

Meanwhile the flagship was taking off and was leaving Area 11. In the hanger within the flagship, Nonette was looking at the Morgause and was frowning and it was the live address that the emperor had made.

"I should have known that it was going to be this way," Nonette said, "but still that fact that Euphie no longer has a claim to the throne. Did she knew about this and still went along with what she wanted to do? All for the sake of…" Nonette thought about Zero and Void and she shook her head and she also thought about Suzaku, "if that was the case, then Euphie sacrificing her claim for the throne was wasted and there's nothing I can do to help her… or Nelly for that matter since I have a good sense of what she might do," Nonette sighed, "this is so frustrated… and Lulu and Nunna had to be so damn selfish."

Nonette was agitated remembering what Zero and Void had announced what they would do at the ceremony. Meanwhile elsewhere in Area 11, the Clan Leaders of Kyoto were riding an elevator that was taking them somewhere underground and they all had their thoughts about the Charles's address.

"So this is the stance that Charles zi Britannia has brought forth regarding the zone," Yoshio said.

"Are any of us really surprised?" Munakata asked.

"No of course not," Osakabe said.

"But now we have to be prepared," Kubouin said, "We know what's going to happen next."

"Hmm, yes," Kirihara said.

Kaguya was just thinking and had a sad expression.

"I can't help but feel sorry for Euphemia," Kaguya said.

"Yes, I feel the same way," Kirihara said.

"It certainly won't bode well for her," Osakabe said.

"Not only that, we have our own problems to deal with," Kubouin said.

The old men sighed as they were feeling the pressure.

"Things are just going to get harder," Kirihara said, "will we be able to making through or will we fail miserably in the process?"

Meanwhile in Ashford Academy, the students within the campus were talking about the things that the emperor said in his live address. In the Student Council Room, Nina was typing on her computer. She stopped and had a worried expression.

"Princess Euphemia," Nina said, "this wouldn't have happened if she had not tried to help the Elevens but… she brought it on herself," Nina clenched her fists on her keyboard, "I thought she would be my goddess but she's not who I thought she was."

Meanwhile Rivalz was sitting on his motorbike and looked at a picture. It was picture of him and the rest of the Student Council which included Lelouch, Rai, and Kallen and Rivalz had a sad expression.

"I don't know what's going on anymore," Rivalz said, "You think you know someone," Rivalz closed his eyes and then opened with a look of determination, "I won't stop until I know the truth."

Uncharted Island

The Black Knights had watched the live address and they all had their thoughts. Lelouch sighed and turned the television off.

"Well that happened," Diethard said.

"The words of the Britannian Emperor," Keitaro said.

"Well that man certainly doesn't shy away on his stance and enjoys reminding everyone that Britannia is strong," Rakshata said, "honestly it seems like he just enjoys hearing his own voice when he makes those speeches."

"We all knew this was going to happen," Diethard said.

"Yeah," Naoto said but has a worried expression, "but still…"

Lelouch and Nunnally looked on as they were taking in their father's speech and they both frowned. Later on, the Black Knights went on their way to prepare things for the next phase of the plan while members were having their discussions of things and what they were going to do from here on out.

Geass Order Headquarters

VV was sitting on his throne and was pleased as he received a message from Bismarck with a few cloaked members with him.

"So Charles wants us to go and attack that island," VV said with a grin, "well looks like things are going to turn to our favor sooner than I expected. No, what it really is that Lelouch and Nunnally don't realize that they were in our grasp from the start."

"Of course Master VV," One of the cloaked members said.

VV stood up from his throne and was pleased.

"Call Castor and Pollux," VV said, "tell them that I want to see them."

"Yes Director," One of the cloaked members said.

"This will also be an open window to… give a spark in Area 11 that will give the conflict," VV said.

"Master VV?" Another cloaked member responded as he and the others were surprised.

"It won't be a problem to try again in Area 11," VV said, "and the Black Knights won't be able to go there and help the people there since they'll be too busy trying and failing to stay alive by our assault and not only that, the preparations there are already set. Let's get started."

Uncharted Island

Within the island, the Black Knights and members of Peace Mark were working together making preparations for the next stages of the plans. Lelouch as Zero was in a room and they had a monitor with them. The monitor turned on and Xingke was seen along with Katase.

"Hello Xingke," Zero said, "General Katase."

"Zero, so good to see you," Xingke said.

"Zero," Katase said with a nod.

"General Katase, I'm sure that you have questions and concerns," Zero said.

"Yes I do," Katase said, "I know you and the others will be coming here in the Chinese Federation. But what I do want to know is this… Zero, have you given up freeing Japan?"

"Of course not," Zero said, "an unexpected obstacle had occurred but freeing Japan is still one of our goals as the Black Knights."

"I see," Katase said, "then that's good enough for me."

Meanwhile Keitaro was directing a group of Black Knights who were members of Yamato Alliance piloting Knightmare Frames. They got their Knightmares at a Knightmare Hanger within the island. Afterwards, the Yamato Alliance met up taking a break as they all relaxed.

"Great work guys," Keitaro said.

The members of the Yamato Alliance responded positively but had looks of concern.

"Hmm, is something wrong guys?" Keitaro asked concerned for his subordinates.

"Well…" Gen said as he looked at the others and then looked at Keitaro, "it's our leader."

"His Geass, right?" Keitaro deduced.

"Yeah," Gen said.

"I see," Keitaro said as he looked at the others, "you guys have your concerns about our leader's Geass."

Meanwhile Diethard was in the bridge of the submarine and typing on his laptop and was in a pleasant mood.

"You seem to be in a good mood," A female voice said.

"Oh," Diethard said as he turned around and saw Rakshata who was smoking her pipe, "hello Rakshata. Well that is because I am in such a good mood."

"Hmm, I take it it's about learning about Lelouch's Geass," Rakshata said.

"It's not just about the Geass that our young leader has," Diethard said, "it's the fact that he was willing to tell us the information and learning about Rai as well as Alice and learning about CC and Jinta."

"Hmm, I would have thought that you would have concerns," Rakshata said.

"Do you have concerns Rakshata?" Diethard asked.

"Not really," Rakshata said, "he's been honest with us, been honest with me and if I'm being honest to myself," Rakshata smiled, "I'm actually curious about this Geass power that he has and would be interested in studying a bit of his Geass."

"Interesting although you could just ask CC or Jinta about Geass," Diethard said.

"Mm, true," Rakshata said, "so about what we discussed earlier."

"Right…" Diethard said.

Meanwhile Naoto was sitting on a hill within the island, and looked at the ocean.

"It's one thing after another," Naoto said.

"Hey Naoto," Ohgi spoke.

Naoto turned and saw Ohgi, Minami, Sugiyama, Tamaki, Yoshida, and Inoue.

"Oh hey guys," Naoto said.

"We've taken care of the supplies and Keitaro and the others have finished up on the rest on their end," Yoshida said.

"Great," Naoto said with a nod.

The others sat with Naoto and looked out at the ocean as well.

"Man, crazy about what we learned," Tamaki said.

"Yeah no kidding," Minami said.

"I can't decide what's more crazy," Sugiyama said, "this power that Lelouch confessed that he has, the fact that Jinta and CC are both immortals and can give Geass power, learning about Rai and Alice's pasts… or learning about the Britannian Emperor having Geass and this Geass Order."

"It's too much," Yoshida said, "didn't think that we would get so much when we decided to join him.

"Yeah I agree," Minami said, "it's… well it's so much."

"I have to wonder," Inoue said as she felt concern, "can we really continue?"

"Huh, what do you mean?" Ohgi asked as he and the others looked her.

"This whole thing seems it's so much bigger than any of us could have imagined," Inoue said, "it feels like it's bigger than any of us."

"Yeah it's crazy," Tamaki said, "it's nuts… but regardless, I'm going to still stick with them."

"Even after learning all of this?" Inoue asked.

"Yeah," Tamaki said, "regardless I'm going to have their back because I'm grateful to them for what they've done."

"I feel the same way," Minami said.

"Yeah me too," Sugiyama said.

"The whole things is a lot to take in and we have concerns regarding the power and what they would use it for," Yoshida said, "but the fact that we have these concerns and there are no gaps in our memories for the whole time we stuck with them, it shows that Lelouch really didn't use his Geass on us and really values our free wills."

"Yeah," Naoto said with a smile, "it's great that we have concern and bits of apprehensions and I know that Lelouch prefers it as it shows that he wants us to decide for ourselves."

"Yeah that's how it is," Ohgi said with a smile.

"I understand that and that's fine and all," Inoue said, "but still…

The men looked at each other and nodded in agreement. Meanwhile Zero was speaking to Katase and Xingke on the monitor.

"I'm glad to hear that you have not gave up on freeing Japan," Katase said, "I'm just wondering, was there no other way?"

"Not that I could think of," Zero said, "stay and take part of it, we would lose the right to bear arms and would have been swallowed up but go against it, make the claims against it, the people would have immediately turn on us and we would be looked at as those against peace… although I suspect even with the route we took, we may have lost some support already."

"Understandable what you mean," Katase said, "I imagine there are some people that feel betrayed and angry that the Black Knights left."

"But it could be the same people that already hated the Black Knights for things like killing some of your own subordinates like Kusakabe," Xingke said.

"Hmm, true," Katase replied, "and there are also some fellow Japanese who support Britannia and were pleased that the Black Knights left."

"Just as they are some that resent us for not helping other resistance cells as they were being decimated as well as those who were part of the Kyushu resistance cell who resent us for not helping them and Sawasaki," Zero said, "Well in any case, we'll be making our way to the Chinese Federation and from there, we'll continue on our objectives."

"Of course and we'll be there to aid you just like you'll be aiding us on an important matter," Xingke said.

"Yes the one we spoke about before," Zero said.

"We'll see you when you get here Zero," Katase said.

"Yes looking forward to it," Zero said with a nod.

Zero then turned off the monitor as he was finish with his conversation with Xingke and Katase. There was a knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Zero asked.

"It's me," CC's voice answered.

"Come in CC," Zero said as he removed his mask.

The door opened and CC arrived and entered in the room and closed the door.

"CC," Lelouch said as he sat in a chair.

"Got through your conversation?" CC asked.

"Yes," Lelouch said as he placed his mask on the small table beside him.

"So you actually did it," CC said as she folded her arms, "you seriously went and told them."

"I take it that you're not pleased," Lelouch replied.

"I'd be lying if I said that it was not true," CC said, "I know that we talked about this before but still I don't think it was the right course."

Lelouch looked at CC and sighed.

"I sincerely hope that this doesn't come back to bite you… and me for that matter," CC said.

"I had my reason to do what I did," Lelouch said.

"I know you did especially with what we will be dealing with," CC said, "but still like I said, I hope that this doesn't come back to bite you. But regardless I will stand with you whatever you may face."

"Thanks CC," Lelouch said and then he smiled, "I know that I'm being a pain."

"Don't worry about it," CC assured with a smile, "I was quite a pain myself so I won't complain."

"I really appreciate you sticking with me," Lelouch said, "and sticking with the Black Knights."

"Hmm, you're welcome," CC said with a smile, "we'll get through this."

"Yes," Lelouch said with a smile and nod.

Geass Order

Within the order, Castor and Pollux looked at VV and they were surprised and then pleased as they grinned with what VV had informed them.

"So we actually know where they are," Pollux said.

"Yes," VV said with a smile, "this is your chance. You two are actually going to lead the attack against the island."

"I'm curious," Castor said, "how did we get the information of where they were?"

"Well that's because we actually have a collaborator within," VV said.

"Oh really?" Castor replied as he and his twin brother was intrigued, "and who is it?"

"Well…" VV said in glee.

Uncharted Island

In the room where CC and Lelouch were in, CC nodded with a smile and turned to leave. CC opened the door and was surprised to find Kallen who was about to knock on the door.

"Oh Kallen," Lelouch said.

"Well, I'm going to head out," CC said, "I'll help get things prepared."

"Thanks CC," Lelouch said.

"Sure," CC said with a smile.

CC left and Kallen looked at CC as she was leaving and had her thoughts.

"Kallen?" Lelouch spoke.

"Oh Lelouch," Kallen replied as she turned her attention to Lelouch.

"Did you need something?" Lelouch asked, "Or wanted to talk to me about something?"

"Um, yes I wanted to talk to you about something," Kallen said.

"Sure, come in," Lelouch said.

Kallen nodded and then let herself in and closed the door. Meanwhile Todoh was outside looking at the ocean and had his thoughts. Four people came by it was Urabe, Chiba, Senba, and Asahina.

"Sir," Asahina said.

Todoh turned to them and nodded.

"We'll be heading to the Chinese Federation," Senba said as he and the others stood with Todoh.

"Yes," Todoh said as he was in his thoughts.

"What are you thinking about sir?" Urabe asked.

"Several things," Todoh said.

"Would one of them being about Geass?" Asahina asked.

The four individuals loyal to Todoh looked at Todoh and Todoh himself closed his eyes.

"It is one of the things," Todoh said, "but I'm not worried. It is like I said in that meeting room, I have faith in Lelouch and I know that he wouldn't use his power on us to control us for his own means."

The others looked at each other and nodded.

"It seems that there is more going on based on what our leader said," Urabe said.

"Indeed," Senba said, "the thing is that are we really up to it to really go against what is truly lurking within Britannia?"

"We can," Urabe said determined.

"You seem sure about it Urabe," Asahina said.

"I believe that we can do whatever it takes to face and go against Britannia," Urabe said, "and with the guide of those that lead us."

"We'll have to be careful and be prepared," Todoh said, "and I have faith in them. They have proven that over and over."

Meanwhile in the control room within the base, Orpheus and Ze Dien along with several members of Peace Mark and one of them were typing something on the large console with the large monitor showing static. The static stopped and a masked man appeared.

"It's good to see you again," Orpheus said.

"Of course," The masked man said with a nod, "How is having the Black Knights fairing?"

"Just fine," Ze Dien said, "the Black Knights are working with us and they are preparing to go to the Chinese Federation."

"So everything is going accordingly," The masked man said and he nodded, "That is excellent. Anyway, I have the next supplies and equipment sent to you."

"Thank you so much," Orpheus said, "we really appreciate everything you have done for us."

"It's my pleasure," The masked man.

The monitor turned off.

"The Wizard really has been a real help to us and our organization," Ze Dien said.

"Yeah," Orpheus said and then had a concern expression.

"Hmm, Orpheus, is something wrong?" Ze Dien asked.

"Oh um… no, it's nothing," Orpheus said.

Orpheus turned and smiled as he waved Ze Dien and the other members as he left the room. As Orpheus left, he thought about two people he saw back in Area 11. It was Marrybell mel Britannia and then he saw girl who was actually his twin sister.

"I haven't seen her in years," Orpheus said and then he sighed sadly.

Orpheus then went on his way. Meanwhile Kallen was rubbing her left arm with her right hand and was shifting her eyes feeling nervous.

"Kallen, what is it?" Lelouch said with a gentle tone.

"Lelouch, you dropped some revelations on us showing that you believe in us," Kallen said, "and I want you know I believe in you and I will always support you."

"Oh, thank you Kallen," Lelouch said with a smile, "I'm happy to hear you say that."

"Yeah," Kallen said, "um Lelouch, I need to ask."

"Yes?" Lelouch replied.

"I know you said that you never used your Geass on any of us and I believe you as I feel it in my heart that you would not control any of us, not control me but I wonder…" Kallen spoke.

"Kallen?" Lelouch replied.

"You mentioned that your father, the Britannian Emperor has his own Geass," Kallen said, "and that his own allows him to alter people's memory."

"Yeah, I did mention that," Lelouch said.

"It's a scary thought of what would happen if any of us were capture," Kallen said, "and brought before your father and he would…"

Kallen stiffed up a bit and looked away and Lelouch nodded as he knew what Kallen was getting at.

"I know what you mean Kallen," Lelouch said, "the thought of it disturbed me as well. Ever since I found out about it from CC, I thought about what would happen. My father is the kind of man that would control the memories and use people for his own gains and his children, including me and Nunnally are no exceptions. That's the kind of man that he is."

"Don't worry Lelouch," Kallen said determined.

Lelouch looked at Kallen and her determined expression.

"Kallen," Lelouch said.

"No matter what," Kallen said, "I'm with you and I will do whatever it takes to protect you. That the promise that I make to you as your Captain of the Zero Squad and," Kallen smiled, "I know that the rest of us will do the same. You and Nunnally, you two are our light of hope and even though we left Japan, I still believe that you two are the hope that Japan needs and one day, we will liberate Japan and when that happens, we'll work hard to maintain it and we'll be right there with you as you have for the us."

Lelouch was touched and smiled and was happy to hear what Kallen had said.

"Kallen, thank you," Lelouch said, "and I want you to know that the same way for me and I am with all of you. I know Nunnally is the same way."

"Yeah," Kallen said happily.

Lelouch suddenly hugged Kallen much to her surprise as she blinked.

"Thank you Kallen," Lelouch said happily has he continued to hug Kallen, "I'm so glad to have you on my side."

"Lelouch," Kallen said as her cheeks were red and she was happy as she hugged Lelouch back, "thank you Lelouch," Kallen was feeling giddy internally with her thoughts, "I guess… I really am…"

Meanwhile somewhere in sky, there was a light blue flagship was soaring through the sky and in the bridge of the flagship, there were people operating the flagship and the twins Castor and Pollux were watching the screen within the bridge.

"We'll getting close to the island," One of the operators said.

"Excellent," Castor said.

"So this is it," Pollux said, "what's the saying again?" Pollux smiled, "Oh yes, killing two birds with one stone."

"Yes, we'll take down the Black Knights and Peace Mark," Castor said.

"They'll have nowhere to run," A male voice said.

Someone arrived and stood next to the princes and it was Kewell.

"Kewell, are you ready?" Castor asked.

"Yes Your Highness," Kewell said.

"We'll be ending them very soon and there's nothing they can do to stop this," Pollux said.

The light blue flagship continued to make its way and soon the island was in view and preparations were being made to attack the island.

Area 11

As people within the Special Zone were trying to live out their lives there have the rights to be called by their nationalities, the people standing facing the entrance of the Special Zone just looked on saying derogatory things about the zone, Japanese within the zone and Euphemia and all those who supported her and the zone. Britannian soldiers and especially those of the Glinda Knights were watching and keeping guards around the Special Zone but the tensions of the zone and those who were against were getting worse. Meanwhile elsewhere Gene and Martin were actually meeting with someone and they each were given something. Martin and Gene were surprised with not only given something but told what they can do with it that would result them taking certain actions.

"Wow, really?" Gene asked.

The person nodded and spoke and Gene and Martin looked on and they looked at each other and they were pleased and they looked at the items they held.

"Yeah, this will show them," Martin said.

Meanwhile Suzaku arrived in the Lancelot and got between the entrance and the people condemning the zone.

"Please everyone," Suzaku spoke, "there is no need for this. Special Zone has been officially recognized and established. It is not meant to stir problems and trouble."

"Well look at this," One of the protestors sneered, "the Eleven playing knight to someone who is no longer a princess."

"Nothing you say means anything Eleven!" Another protester said.

In the cockpit of the Lancelot, Suzaku clenched her teeth.

"That is enough!" A female voice said.

Suzaku looked and so did the others and it was Euphemia.

"You are causing trouble for no reason," Euphie said.

"Please, we just want to live our lives," One of the residents of the Special Zone said.

A group of Japanese people within the zone showed up trying to show that they were being peaceful.

"You're Elevens!" One of the protestors said, "You have no rights!"

The protestors cheers in response.

"That's enough," Euphie said, "please there is no need to be outraged."

"Ha, we just learned that you're no longer a princess," Another protestor pointed out, "that means words have no meaning."

The protestors screamed in agreement and Euphie looked around and was feeling frustrated as Jeremiah, Marrybell, and members of the Glinda Knights came to Euphie's defense and Suzaku moved the Lancelot to defend Euphie and the residents of the Special Zone. Meanwhile VV was watching things from a distance and was all smiles.

"I believe it's time to try again to shakes things up a bit," VV said.

That's it for this chapter. Next chapter: The island is attacked and an invasion led by Castor and Pollux while an attack sparks the trouble for the Special Zone that spreads like wildfire.
