A/N HAPPY (almost) STAR WARS DAY MOTHER FUCKERS! I had this awesome idea kicking around in my head for quite some time. But I was waiting for the opportune moment so to speak. Here we go!
"It's over Zero! We know about your geass!"
"How dare you use us like pawns!"
Kallen couldn't believe this was happening, just moments ago she realized her true feelings for the man behind the mask. She was always scared of admitting it, she had no idea what kind of person Lelouch really was, she pushed him away because she feared he wasn't who he made himself out to be. Yet he proved himself to be a great person, flawed as he was, cold, mistrusting, de-sensitized, and, more than likely, he was scared too. Almost everyone everyone he had ever Come to trust had either died or betrayed him in one way or another. He doesn't know who to trust, and she wasn't about to let him die like this.
She ran in front of him.
"Now hold on a second! Give him a chance to speak! He deserves at least that!"
"Get out of the way Kallen!"
She turned to Lelouch, she was pleading with him without even having to say anything.
"Please Lelouch, I'll stay by your side til the very end but I need to know what I mean to you."
"HAHAHAHAHA!"
She froze. And he took off his mask.
"It's about time you figured it out! P one, N one, Q one, those sound like chess designations don't they!?" He looked directly at Kallen. "You where my most useful piece! Like a well placed knight."
She could do nothing but turn and walk away, but something happened, she felt strange, her head hurt.
She then began to see visions.
C.C. was speaking while the past few moments replayed themselves.
"If you truly care about someone..."
He laughed and told her she was nothing but a chess piece, meaning the guns where no longer pointing at her.
"If you love them..."
A solitary tear slipped from his left eye, going un noticed by all except her.
"You will push them away, to keep them from harm."
She flashed back to the present.
"Ready!"
"Kallen." Lelouch whispered, but she heard it loud and clear.
"Aim!"
"You must live." He finished.
"Fire!"
She turned and screamed sprinting over to him in an effort to push him out of the way. "No!"
"Brother!"
The Shinkiro dropped from the ceiling, seemingly out of nowhere, blocking all of the bullets.
Lelouch turned to look at Kallen, he gave her a look that one would give when it was believed they would never see eachother again. The message was clear.
'I'm sorry.'
He climbed aboard the frame and it blasted it's way out of the hangar.
In the confusion she left the warehouse and went to the Guren, she activated it with the key and left the ship, following the other knightmare.
She lost them temporarily, just for a few minutes in the confusion, but in the end she found the frame on a familiar island.
She groaned. "I hate this place."
She followed the footsteps leading to an equally familiar cave. She got out of her Guren, and walked up to the stone wall with the geass symbol, something was telling her what to do, she placed her hand on the symbol and it glowed, her eyes, which she didn't realize she had closed, opened. She saw clouds, and some sort of strange monument in top of a large stair case, she could hear voices, what was even more confusing is that the planet Jupiter was hovering above them.
She shook her head and began to run for the platform ahead of her.
'Now isn't the time to get distracted Kallen.'
She reached the top after a minute of running, she wasn't tired for some reason but brushed it off for the time being.
Reaching the top she saw two people she never thought she'd ever actually meet, a dead woman and the emperor himself stood in front of someone she dearly hoped she could see again.
Lelouch turned to see Kallen.
"I knew you would be too stubborn to let me go." He gave a smirk. But just as suddenly he looked back at his parents.
"You don't have to worry anymore Lelouch, ragnarok is starting, when it finishes you can see Nunnally again." His mother spoke.
"You would destroy the future?"
"Ragnarok is the future."
"But what's the point? If you destroy god and it turn the very concept of life and death then what's the point of living? There isn't any, it's a bland, cold, meaningless existence. I would know, my entire life up until the day in Shinjuku was all meaningless, full of lies. Would you force that on the world?"
"It's better than what awaits you if Schneizel wins. Besides it's what Nunnally and Euphemia would want."
"How dare you!? They would never want this! They wanted a gentler world, a place that even strangers could be kind to eachother in! A world I have been fighting to create! Do you know why she smiled every day? It's because in the end she was greatful for what she still had and your destroying what's left!
"Those smiles where fake!"
"I WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO CALL THAT A LIE!"
Kallen walked up next to Lelouch. He continued to speak.
"I understand what I must do now, in order to create the peaceful world...
I reject you. And I reject everything you stand for."
"It doesn't matter, ragnarok is under way, and I am immune to your geass."
"Ah, but we aren't the only ones here, are we?"
"What do you mean?"
"This is C's world, the real of the collective subconscious, God himself is here."
"Fool! You cannot command god! No one can!"
"This isn't a command, it is a request! God... Collective subconscious-" He looked up at Jupiter. "Please, do not stop the flow of time!"
The gas giant above them received a bright red geass symbol. The sword of Akasha began to fade away into purple mist.
"YOU UNGRATEFUL LITTLE BRAT!" Charles ZI Britannia shot forward, even as his own faded, but he never reached Lelouch, Kallen, his ever faithful knight stepped in front of Lelouch and pushed the now weakened Emperor away. Lelouch put a hand on her shoulder and walked back in front, while Kallen stood directly behind him to his right.
"I grow tired of your existence old man!"
Lelouch's right eye turned pure black with but a pin prick of red in the middle, then a geass symbol blazed it's way into his second eye, claiming both.
"BE GONE!"
The man's body faded away along with a shocked Marriane. But the moment would not last, the sword began to crumble as the planet above began to pulsate with incredible, violent power.
"Kallen get out of here!"
"Only if you come with me!"
"No! I have to stop this! If I don't the entire world will suffer!"
"Then I'm staying!"
"Kallen you can't! I told you to live remember!"
"And I told you I would stay by your side to the very end!"
"I order you to leave!"
"No!"
"Kallen, you can't die, your all I've got left, please, I can't lose another that I care about..."
Kallen brought him into a hug.
"Were in this together Lelouch, we always where. I'm not going to abandon you."
"Kallen..."
She shut him up with a kiss. Lightning began to crack as the world began to fall apart. If they where going to die she would let him know how she felt.
The floor opened wide and the two where separated by the crack.
"Kallen!"
"Lelouch!"
They crawled forward a
Towards each other, their hands clasped together one last time before everything went black.
...
...
...
"-ord?..."
"My lord?"
Lelouch shot up with a start, he was sitting at a desk, he was wearing an odd outfit, a tight body suit and a robe that covered his entire body along with a pair of black boots, a hood covered everything down to his eyebrows and some sort of cloth went over the bridge of his nose, his violet eyes where the only things visible. Standing before him was a woman, or at least he thought the person was, dressed in bleach white armor with a black body suit underneath, helmet included, with a breathing device where the mouth would be and slits for the eyes covered by black visors.
"Um, yes? What is it?"
"Lord Vader has a new assignment for you sir."
A/N ok so this could either remain as a one shot or I could easily keep this going as a code geass/ star wars crossover AU! please review!
