Dranstrain, capital of Britannia
"This world shall burn! And from the ashes, I shall create a new empire! A new world! Why scream in agony, my people?
There is no happiness without sorrow. And you must all learn sorrow to know true happiness!"
My body is numb. The screams of citizens echo inside my cockpit. It has been cracked and all I can see are rubble and dust.
My Guren was buried under debris of a building. Everything is chaotic. Madness has consumed that man who locked away all his hatred and now unleashes it upon the world. He rants and sermons on his palace the new world. It was sickening. But I can't move, All I can do is watch from here as the city around me is filled with death and pandemonium. All of a sudden, my communicator began to ring.
"Commander Kallen? Do you copy? We're surrou-"
An explosion. Men are being slaughtered in his name. His followers will taint Britannia, and soon, the rest of the world. I have lost so many people I care about because of this madness. I can't take it anymore. I wanted my body to feel the pain it deserves. Becoming numb irritates me. I deserve to punished for not being able to save the people I love.
"From now on, I will be the judge, jury, and executioner! I am God!"
Is this the fate that befalls mankind? The peace we enjoyed for years has been destroyed in a matter of hours. Lelouch's sacrifice for the world is being poisoned by this man's vengeance and his new found greed. And yet, I can do nothing about it. The thought of dying here sounds like a good idea right now. I'm wounded, depressed and betrayed. Is there still purpose for me to live? I'm nothing but a failure. All I can do is look up and talk to him.
"What should I do now, Lelouch?"
Part II - Eternity's End PREVIEW/PROLOGUE
The prologue is based on the ending part of the story, its just in narrative form. I became rather fond of backtracking
after re-watching Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban :DD
What are your expectations for Part II?
Note:
Release of each chapter will have a 2-day interval.
Thanks for the support guys! I'll publish Chapter 1 soon :D
