Tokyo Settlement, Old Subway station
The explosion soared skyward and blew a hole to the surface. Sun and Jaune took this moment to race away from the Royal Guard and carry the strange woman to safety. The Britannian military had started to mobilize after the Royal Guard failed. Viceroy Black was furious. He contacted the Captain of the Royal Guard and screamed. "You Idiots! You let her get away?! If knowledge of her gets out I'll be ruined. Continue the search and eliminate any witnesses." The Captain saluted and switched off the communicator. Marcus turned to General Tinn and said, "The plan has changed. Tell the Homeland that we're carrying out a planned urban renewal here. I, Marcus Black, Viceroy of Area Eleven, command you! Destroy Shinjuku Ghetto! Leave no one alive!" General Tinn saluted, "Yes, my lord!" Tinn turned toward the communication computer and informed the foot soldiers. The purge of Shinjuku had begun.
Tokyo Settlement, Shinjuku Ghetto
Yang was trying to get civilians out of harm's way. She piloted the Glasgow flawlessly and met up with the rest of Coco's unit. She jumped out and was tackled by her sister. "Oh my Gosh! It's so good to see you, did you miss me? Did you miss me?" Yang couldn't help but smile at Ruby's antics but they had bigger problems at the moment. She kissed her sister on the head and said, "Sis, the military is wiping out the Ghetto. They need you to save them. You are our ace." Ruby got a serious expression on her face and jumped into the Glasgow. She raced off to be the hero she always tried to be. Coco turned to Yang and asked, "Where's Lark?" Yang just looked down in despair. Coco steeled her nerves and said, "So be it. We will avenge him and all the fallen Japanese. We will set up ambushes and clear out the foot soldiers. Try and get as many civilians to safety as you can. Our people are counting on us, let's move out." She heard a resounding war cry and her unit went to carry out her orders.
Jaune was carrying the woman while Sun acted as a lookout. They continued through the winding tunnels until they came upon a warehouse. They thought about backtracking but they heard the marching of Britannian soldiers behind them. With no other choice, they continued into the warehouse and prayed no one would find them. Sun kept an eye on the tunnel they came from while Jaune untied the woman's hands and removed her gag. He knelt down and asked, "Are you alright?" The woman pointed at her throat and shook her head no. She then signed, "I am mute. Thank you for saving me." Jaune smiled and signed back, "No problem, my name is Jaune. What's your name?" The woman smiled and signed "N.P." Jaune smirked and said, "N.P., you are safe now. I give you my word to help fulfill this dream you talked about." N.P. smiled and had a tear in her eye. She was moving to hug Jaune when there was the sound of automatic gunfire.
Some of the Japanese people tried to rush into the warehouse but they were gunned down. The Royal Guard came through the door and raised their guns. The Captain said, "Well, look what we have here. The same rats who escaped. This is an appropriate place for a terrorist to meet his end." Sun ran at the Captain screaming "You Scum!" The Guard members dogpiled him and wrestled him to the ground. The Captain smirked at Jaune "You did well for a student, but that's to be expected. You're a Britannian. Unfortunately, my clever young friend, you have no future." He raised his pistol and pointed it at Jaune's heart. Time slowed as the Captain pulled the trigger. With unnatural speed, N.P. jumped in front of the bullet. It struck her in the head, killing her instantly. Jaune held her body in his hands and wept. The Captain just laughed and said, "Our orders were to bring her back alive if possible. Oh well, nothing can be done about it now. We'll tell our superiors that the Royal Guard found the terrorist hideout and killed them all. Regrettably, the female hostage had already been tortured to death. What do you think, schoolboy?" Jaune had a murderous look plastered on his face, His emotions were a mix of sorrow and rage. He wouldn't be able to keep his promise to his sister Jade.
Suddenly he heard the voice of N.P. in his head again and he saw what looked like the galaxy. "You don't want to perish here, do you? You still have a reason to live. I will grant you a special power. If I grant you power, could you go on? I propose a deal. In exchange for this power, you must agree to make my one wish come true. Accept this contract and you accept its conditions, while living in the world of humans, you will live unlike any other. A different providence, a different time, a different life. The power of the king will condemn you to a life of pain. Are you prepared for this?" Jaune saw images of The Empress of Britannia. He saw most of his family wiped out. He saw a swirling dagger rise into the heavens. Jaune shouted out, "Yes, I hereby accept the terms of your contract!" There was a swirling light and a crane symbol appeared before Jaune. It let out a shriek before it flew into his eye.
With a grunt, Jaune found himself back in the warehouse. His emotions stabilized and suddenly he knew what he had to do. He rose up and said, "How should a Britannian who detests his own country live his life?" The Royal guard just laughed as they pushed Sun's face into the dirt. The Captain asked, "What are you, a radical?" Jaune smiled and replied, "What's wrong? Why not shoot? Your opponent is just a schoolboy. Or have you finally realized? The only ones who should kill are those who are prepared to be killed. I, Jaune Arc, Command you, Die!" A pink crane appeared in Jaune's left eye and flew into the entire Royal Guard's eyes. They all smiled and stood up robotically. With a salute they all said, "Happily your highness." They pulled out their weapons and proceeded to commit suicide. Sun jumped up in shock and asked, "Jaune, What the fuck just happened?" Jaune smirked and said this is the power of the king and this is the key to bringing down Britannia." Sun grinned and said, "That's amazing dude but let's not linger. There's still a battle going on. Jaune nodded and leaned down to pick up N.P. She was partially awake and Jaune signed, "I will get you out of here. I give you my word." N.P. smiled at her savior and drifted off into unconsciousness.
Jaune and Sun were about to leave the warehouse when the doors were knocked off the hinge by a Knightmare. It was an electric purple Sutherland. The pilot was a woman by the name of Leslie. She was a sergeant and member of the Purist Faction. She looked around at the dead Royal Guard members and pointed her gun at the students. She used her Knightmare speakers "What happened here?" Jaune tried to use his Geass and instructed her to "Come here." Leslie scoffed and said, "You dare command me?" Jaune instantly knew that she couldn't clearly see his eye, thus his power was useless. He called out, "My name is Alan Spencer, My father is a Duke. These two are my attendants. My Identification is in my breast pocket. After you confirm my identity, I will request your protection." Leslie raised an eyebrow but got out of her Knightmare anyway. Once on the ground, she walked toward Jaune and pointed her pistol at him. "Don't make any sudden moves until I verify your identity." Jaune smirked before activating his Geass and saying, "Give me your Knightmare." Leslie stopped moving and threw Jaune the keys. She then told him the code. Sun caught the keys and went behind Leslie. He didn't know if she would be a problem later so he snapped her neck. He was no stranger to violence after all. He jumped into the Knightmare and checked the systems. Jaune slowly made his way over and set N.P. into Sun's lap. Jaune got into the main pilot seat and deactivated the IFF signal. He couldn't have the enemy tracking him after all. He zoomed out of the warehouse and used his slash harkens to ascend into an abandoned building with good cover. He smiled because he could see the whole battlefield from here. This next move was going to be fun.
