Code Geass: The Black Lion of Britannia
Summary: Geass and the Code are something beyond human knowledge, much less the World of C. That is why when he, Lelouch vi Britannia, woke up five years old again he didn't question it. But he had to ask himself is it the same past he lived in or an alternate reality?
Author's Note: I don't whether or not I'm going to continue this mostly because I just wrote this because I just couldn't get it out of my head and I couldn't think of writing anything else.
Also some of the areas might be changed to fit my owns needs...as well as other stuff.

Chapter 1: Ascension
"All Hail Britannia!"
"All Hail Britannia!"
"ALL HAIL BRITANNIA!"
"ALL HAIL LELOUCH!"
Lelouch vi Britannia sat in his knightmare frame, a personalized gold on black color schemed Gloucester, and smirked at the scene before. Its black cape fluttered in the wind as his personal insignia moved along with the made. Of course the golden lined head on the Gloucester's chest was much more evident and fear inspiring.
The geass symbol with a line over it outlined in gold, the same symbol of the Black Knights in his previous life. He of course remade his personal army, the Black Knights, in the form of a Knightmare Corps. Despite the many protest of him including numbers his victory with the Black Knights should up those stupid protesters.
Before his KMF hundreds of war machines laid before him broken and defeated, 'so weak' Lelouch thought to himself as he laid his eyes upon the defeated army of South America.
'To think that South America a country that claimed to be just as strong as Britannia fall so easily. Well no matter, they are after all just a stepping stone for my goal' Lelouch thought as cheers of victory could still be heard around.
"It was overwhelming," one Britannian soldier serving under Lelouch vi Britannia's personal knightmare corps, the Black Knights, claimed. He said that if he ever once had doubt about his highness's abilities it was erased that day, the day that his highnesses claimed victory over Area 10 nearly two years ago.
Lelouch vi Britannia's military career started as when he was just nine year olds according to reliable sources. He was an observer at New Zealand, now area 9, however once the commanding officer died due to incoming fire his highness despite his young age had taken over the chain of command! What's more he had led his troops to victory all with only losing at most one percent casualty.
Since then his Highness's, the Black Lion of Britannia's, military career had jumped started. His majesty, Emperor Charles zi Britannia, has since then sent his son all over the world and to this day has never failed to claim victory even at the hands of defeat.
With his most recent and largest accomplishment of conquering Area 12 in one year no less, his imperial majesty has summoned Lelouch vi Britannia to Pendragon presumably to be awarded.
However not only is his highness Lelouch vi Britannia's commanding superior to most veterans or even some would argue Cornelia el Britannia, but his highness has obviously also inherited his late mother's, Marianne vi Britannia aka Marianne the Flash, knightmare piloting skills. Resulting in the above mentioned nickname; the Black Lion of Britannia who defeats all his foes without mercy on the battlefield.
Word has it that the Eleventh Prince is also merciful creating a government that insisted numbers treated equal as Britannians. It doesn't stop there as his highness also advocates that the motto of strength to protect the week, something that cause the Numbers and Britanians alike to love him.
Excerpt from Britannian Times
For information on Lady Monica Kruszewski please go to page 3
For information on the Black Knights please go to page 5
Lady Monica Kruszewski is his highness's, Lelouch vi Britannia, knight. Two years ago when Lady Kruszewski was first appointed his knight, there were many rumors of the eleventh prince's "impure" motives for such an act.
And why not? Lady Kruszewski a young lady of sixteen at the time now eighteen came from a low noble family, she had alluring pure and gentle looks that would prompt most men to court her and women to envy her.
But as the saying goes never judge a book by its cover. Since her ascension as Lelouch vi Britannia's knight, she has shown us all that she is not just a pretty face.
Her feats have even given her the moniker "Angel of Death". Lady Kruszewski's skills with the Knightmare Frames, a customized yellow green Gloucester, and gentle aura and demeanor has led others to call her a gentle maiden…until the she has stepped into a battle, then she becomes an maiden of death that is.
…
…
…
The Black Knights a recently created personal knightmare corps by his highness, Lelouch vi Britannia, is surprisingly composed of both Britannians and Numbers.
At first just like the ascension of Lady Monica Kruszewski, there were scandalous rumors coming about. One must wonder why a Britannian noble and a prince at that would associate themselves with such low life's.
But yet again, much like the rumors with Lady Kruszewski, they were once again crushed under the overwhelming power they displayed. Each and every one of those pilots has skills that rival elites in fact some are even higher like Lelouch vi Britannia and Monica Kruszewski.
Since their creation a year ago, they have proved themselves to be one of Britannia's best with their most recent accomplishment being the main force behind his victory over Area 10.
…
…
…
"Presenting his highness Lelouch vi Britannia, Eleventh prince of the empire and seventeenth in line for the throne!"
Lelouch walked in his official ceremonial clothing specially made for occasions like this. Each step he took he took with confidence. Each movement was graceful and fluid.
His eyes were gazing forward taking in only the sight of the emperor as if the other occupants of the room were insignificant and in a way they were insignificant to him.
As he made his way towards the emperor, Lelouch began to think of the first day that he awoken in this world.
The first time he opened his eyes in this world was when he was five years old, at first he was confused…but there was message ingrained into the core of his brain.
Second Chance
That was what it said, Lelouch couldn't understand before but then he understood. He didn't know how he came to the conclusion but he just understood that he was sent into the past…or an alternate universe to be given a second chance to live his life without the burdening himself.
But he couldn't just do that, he couldn't just let his father's Ragnarok Connection be completed and as for world peace…every time he saw Nunnally he couldn't bear not to create another kind and gentle world for her, he just couldn't.
That is why he decided he stop and destroy the Sword of Akasha and make a peaceful world, minus the dying part. Dying hurt…a lot and it was something Lelouch didn't want to go through again.
He still had his geass; it was in its pre-evolved state. He had decided to limit his use of it unless he wanted to have it run amok again.
The first sign that this past was different than his was the fact that everyone was surprised at his show of intellect when his private tutor came to teach him. Apparently this version of him was a muscle headed idiot. Lelouch didn't know whether to be happy to be called the same name he called Suzaku or horrified.
And this was just one among the other things that had changed but…it was nothing he couldn't adapt. Although it did throw away most of his pre-planned schemes out the windows, well it didn't matter anyways, he was Lelouch vi Britannia, the demon emperor, the destroyer of worlds, and the creator of worlds! Such a small hindrance won't stop him.
But his plans had drastically changed, unlike last time he would bide his power from within and win the support of the people. To that end he became a war hero starting at the age of nine and only rose from that point on. His achievements were to the point that no one could ignore him anymore.
Which was why this wasn't the first time he had been summoned by the emperor. He kneeled down before the emperor with his right hand to his heart.
"Your majesty." Lelouch said as he kneeled gracefully with his right hand over his heart.
"Presenting Lady Monica Kruszewski, knight of Lelouch vi Britannia!" The palace guardsman yelled out once more. Monica strode towards the emperor just as Lelouch had with her golden hair swaying as she walked. Her hair as mentioned earlier blond and reaching to her waist. Most of it was on her back with two ribbon tied strands of hair in front. With her gentle looking face made her quite beautiful however that beauty was undoubtedly dangerous.
She was dressed in a decorative Black Knight uniform, signifying her status as Lelouch's knight and the rank she held. She wore a skirt that nearly reached her knees and had side slits nearly to her hip that allowed her to move unimpeded by the restraining clothing. Her decorative sword swayed as she moved and kneeled before the emperor.
"Your majesty." Monica said just as Lelouch did.
"Rise." Charles zi Britannia said in his authoritative voice as he sat on his throne. Even sitting down, the emperor just radiated power and authority. A lesser man would have been cowed, hell even a great man would have used a lot of nerve to not be intimidated.
But Lelouch was greater than most man, after all he did conquer the world at age eighteen, he was the man that also commanded God before. Out of his peripheral vision he could see Monica tense, he couldn't blame her, he had been so intimidated before that he fell on his royal ass, granted he was ten but…
"I am pleased with you Lelouch, you are truly my son to show such might despite your young age." The emperor complemented. Let me say that explain the situation to you, this is the man who almost never compliments anyone…ever. In fact the number of people he did compliment could be counted on one hand.
Lelouch smirked; it was no big secret that he was one of emperor's favorite right now. Nobles that once thought of him as a nuisance were now starting to regret it, the consorts and princes and princess who bullied him would shiver whenever he looked at them.
He was stronger than them; the emperor favored him over them. Their position could be quickly lost if the emperor was displeased with them quite easily if they aggravated Lelouch now.
"However your rank and position does not do you justice," The emperor stood up as he said that, with his height at its tallest his aura was even more powerful but still Lelouch wasn't affected. "That is why by the power I have as the emperor of The Holy Empire of Britannia, I grant you, Lelouch vi Britannia, the rank and position of Knight of Five."
Silence
There was silence within the great hall. No prince or princess had ever gained a position among the Knight of the Rounds. Even Cornelia with her strength as the Witch of Britannia or even Schneizel el Britannia was not bestowed such a rank, although that could be argued that was because his position wasn't of militaristic background.
"Thank you, your majesty." Lelouch said still keeping the look of calm indifference and aloofness. However on the inside, it was better than he had hoped for. He had never expected to become one of the Rounds, hell he didn't even know that he could become one. Still it did worry him of what the emperor might want him to do.
"Monica Kruszewski, your accomplishments and skill although aren't on par with Lelouch's, but nevertheless you have shown the skills and strength needed. That is why by my power I grant you Monica Kruszewski the rank and position of Knight of Twelve."
Gasps were heard throughout the hall. Not only was a member of royalty granted the position among the rounds, there second person who was going to become a round in the same day.
"Thank you for kind words your majesty but-" Lelouch suddenly looked at his knight in confusion as Monica suddenly kneeled in front of emperor in a far more submissive state. "I am afraid I must decline."
Gasps once again were heard throughout the hall, it was unheard. Just as it was unheard for a prince to become a Round, no one rejected the offer. It could be said that the position as a round was among the highest of Britannia. It could even be said to be more than a prince or princess'.
"And why is that?" Charles asked. To Lelouch's surprise, his father didn't seem displeased, in fact it looked like he expected it.
"Your majesty, I have already given my loyalty to your son, Lelouch vi Britannia. I have already decided to not serve another person, even you, your majesty." Monica said with resolution, despite the fact that she was trembling and that her words can be taken as treason and be executed for it.
Lelouch for his part showed slight fear on his. Don't get him wrong, he was happy that Monica had such loyalty to him, but to openly say and die for it? Absolutely not!
In his previous life, he hadn't known her much, but in this life he had made her his knight. It showed how tremendously he trusted her. You could even say that she became one of the most important people in his life.
Quickly he also kneeled down. "Your majesty, please forgive my knight for her insolence, I will take full responsibility for her words."
Monica openly showed fear at her liege's word, she knew that he could be executed for her words at that moment, the emperor wasn't known to be kind after all.
"Your highness, please do not concern yourself! It was my decision! I take full responsibility for my own words, you don't need to risk yourself for me!" She said quite quickly fearing for her master's life.
"Shut up! I'm trying to save your life!" Lelouch spoke quite harshly to her in quietest whisper he could muster. He definitely did not foresee this coming, hell he was risking his whole plan for her!
To Lelouch's surprise he heard his mother giggle, "Charles it seems that I won our little."
'Bet?' Lelouch questioned in his mind.
"Mother what bet are you talking about?" Lelouch asked her. Although she would allowed Nunnally to be killed in order for the Ragnarok Connection, Lelouch knew that she really loved them and wholeheartedly believe that it was for the best. Not unlike himself in a sense he supposed. That was why he allowed himself to love her back, but…that didn't mean he wouldn't stop her if he had to.
"Oh, it's nothing my son, it's just a little bet concerning a knight's love for her master~" Marianne said as she winked at Monica, but of course Lelouch didn't see it and showed a confused look.
Monica on the other hand blushed heavily.
The emperor himself sighed, "It doesn't matter, whether your loyalty is to me or my son. Ultimately you will serve the empire, me!" he said.
Lelouch's eyes widened. His father had just basically had allowed a member whose loyalty wasn't to him join the Knight of the Rounds. Perhaps it was because the loyalty was to him? Maybe it was because his father thought he was serving the empire wholeheartedly? Or was that he didn't care as he thought in the end that the Ragnarok Connection would eventually make it trivial?
Whatever it was Lelouch made an internal sigh of relief as he and Monica thanked the emperor.
-Later-
"Monica don't do that again!" Lelouch scolded his knight, well the new Knight of Twelve, in a harsh tone as he and she made their way to the lounge where the other member of the Rounds where.
Both he and Monica were wearing their new Knight of the Round uniform. Although Lelouch's was a bit more elaborate with gold linings on his white uniform and black cape with the Britannia empire's symbol on it. It was probably because he was royalty that his uniform was more elaborate.
Monica too had also changed into her Rounds uniform. Unlike Lelouch's her was the standard variation with a lime green cape, although she had a skirt instead of pants.
On a side note, the fourteen year old Lelouch was half a head shorter than her, making his scolding of her quite funny.
"Your highness, I have already pledged my allegiance to you and only you. Even it is the emperor, even if I am to be executed, will only give my loyalty to you." Lelouch sighed. Generally she was quite obedient, but on matters like these or those concerning his life she would risk everything even her life to make sure his was safe.
Lelouch sighed, sometimes her loyalty was too limiting at times like this.
"I know, I know. It's just that you're important to me, I don't want you to die." Lelouch said as he kept walking and consequently didn't see Monica's grateful smile behind him.
'I know and that is why you have my eternal loyalty.'
"Thank you your highness-"
Pakan
The sound of the door opening alerted the other occupants of the room namely Bismarck Waldstein the Knight of One, Dorothea Ernst the Knight of Four, Nonette Enneagram the Knight of Nine, and finally Luciano Bradley the Knight of Ten.
"My, my, my… it's the little prince and his fangirl." Obviously Luciano said that in a mocking manner.
"How dare you Brad-" Monica started to argue, but Lelouch held his hand up and she quieted down.
"As expected for the little prince to be able to control his fangirl." Bradley continued to mock as he stood up directly facing Lelouch.
Lelouch for his part already knew of the Knight of Ten's less than stellar behavior from Suzaku, so he was already prepared for it that and he had some few...less than pleasant encounters with the man. That was why he started to walk towards Luciano only to pass by him without even looking as if he was an insignificant ant.
Luciano for his part looked shocked and insulted that Lelouch just ignored him, before his face adopted an irritated look. Without warning he threw one of his black assassination knives he was so fond of at Lelouch's back.
To his surprise the young prince just tilted his head out of the way and used his hand to catch. "Is this how far the Knight of the Rounds have fallen to allow a brute to join?" Lelouch asked in a calm voice. The Knight of Four had a glare on her for Lelouch's insult but couldn't really blame him, as she agreed that Luciano was just a brute.
"You have no idea who you're speaking to boy do you? Then let me enlighten you, I am the Vampire of Britannia, Luciano Bradley!" Luciano said as he took out three more knives all in the same hand.
"Really!?" Lelouch sounded surprise. "I thought you were a gay clown that came in here to entertain us."
Dorothea's, Monica's, and Bismarck's lips twitch as they held back their laughter, Nonette however wasn't so inclined to do so and openly laughed.
Luciano's irritated look became an angry scowl as he threw the knives in his hand at Lelouch. Lelouch for his part placed his left hand on his hip to reveal the sword hidden by his cape and drew the sword in one swift motion and blocked all three of the knives in one swing.
However once Lelouch had finish that swung he saw Luciano's hand with another knife within a foot of him. This prompted him to dodge by stepping back before he swung the sword up diagonally from right to left. Luciano of course used his knife to block it.
Or at least tried due to the unexpected strength behind the swing forcing the knife out of his hand; it was only Bradley's years of experience that saved him as he leaned back and avoided the blow..
Unfortunately once he leaned forward again his face was introduced to the full force of Lelouch's foot and was kicked off the ground and onto his back.
"You brat!" He said with gritted teeth as he stood up as soon as possible with another set of knives preparing to throw them again.
"Enough!" Everyone of the rounds turned their head to look at Bismarck. "Lord Bradley you disgraced yourself enough now calm down."
Luciano just made a "tch" sound as he stormed out the lounge.
"My apologizes Lord Waldstein, Lord Bradley just rubbed me the wrong way and I lost control of myself." Lelouch apologized to his superior, after all it wouldn't do him any good to make him seem like a real brat.
"Its fine your highness, no can blame you anyways especially with Lord Bradley's attitude." Bismarck said.
"Long time no see, right Lulu?" Nonette said as she wrapped one of her arms around Lelouch.
"Lady Enneagram please let go of his highness at once!" Monica cried out as she saw the Knight of Nine getting close to her master.
"Chill, Monica. It's not like I'm going to steal him from you~" Nonette said with a teasing voice as Monica's face turned to a bright shade of red.
"Nonette stop harassing Monica." Lelouch said with a sigh.
"Tch, you're no fun Lulu~" Nonette said although she still had her arm around Lelouch.
After that the knights made small talk with each, and soon each left as it was getting late.
"Monica go sleep in your own room." Lelouch who was now in his pajamas said to the female knight who was also in pajamas.
"But your highness I am still your knight and it is my duty to protect you." Monica argued.
"Monica I am not twelve anymore you don't have to protect me in my sleep anymore." Lelouch said as he argued back. "besides you're no longer my knight anymore, you're the Knight of Twelve now."
"I told you before your highness, my loyalty is for you and only you despite that I am a member of the rounds now, I still consider myself your knight!" Monica argued back with such ferocity that Lelouch knew that he wasn't going to win.
So he just gave up and said "Good night" as he climbed onto the bed, besides C.C. was far more intrusive than Monica was. And if Lelouch had to choose he would definitely choose Monica, who knows what that witch would do.
Monica smiled in triumph as she too climbed into bed. Two years ago when she became his knight, she had started to sleep on the same bed with him to protect him.
But as time went it was less and less about protecting him and more and more about just relishing feeling of being close to Lelouch. She wondered if she could be called a paedophile, but shrugged as her case wasn't as extreme as the one she had seen.
Monica let out a small smile as she doze off with the last sight her eyes saw being Lelouch's innocently sleeping face that was a great deal in contrast to when he was awake.
Click
Click
Click
Monica groaned as she heard clicking sounds disturbing her sleep, when suddenly it occurred to her that someone was in the same room and it couldn't be Lelouch as he never did anything remotely sounding like, well that and the fact that he slept in when he could.
"Who are you!" Monica cried as she flew the cover off and glared at the intruder…only to see Lelouch's mother, Marianne vi Britannia…with a freaking camera taking pictures.
"L-ll-lady M-marianne! I-it's not what it looks like!" Monica cried out with a full blush.
Marianne in response just made a teasing smile and said. "Sure whatever makes you feel better." As she continued to snap pictures.
Later Lelouch would wonder why Monica would blush whenever his mother looked at her, and why his mother kept giving him smirks.
"Lelouch how is your Babylon Project coming along?" Schneizel asked.
Lelouch was currently in his rounds uniform sitting in the lounge with several other members of the royal family including Carline among the many siblings, who had immediately started to like him once his military career had started off. Odysseus wasn't here as he had become the viceroy of Area Eleven after Cornelia had conquered it a few months before Lelouch conquered South America. Clovis although he wasn't at the lounge was probably at another place pursuing art; it appeared that since Lelouch and Nunnally was never lost in the invasion of Japan Clovis didn't have any reason to become viceroy.
Monica was behind him standing up, and refused to sit down no matter how many times it was okay.
As for where Nunnally was, Lelouch had managed to convince his mother to let her attend the newly built Ashford academy in Area Eleven with the excuse that it would her good to have friends like normal person instead of being spoiled sweet. In truth he had just wanted Nunnally to be away for awhile so that their mother wouldn't taint her with her ideals although it didn't look like his mother would, but Lelouch didn't want to risk it.
"Yes, the Babylon Project is coming along nicely." Lelouch said with an inwardly smug smirk as he thought of the technology his team had that could one-upped Schneizel. Ever since Lelouch had begun to rise up in the hierarchy he and Schneizel had a small rivalry.
"Lelouch!" Suddenly a thirteen year pink haired girl flung her arms around him, it was Euphemia li Britannia his half-sister.
"How have you been Euphy?" Lelouch asked as he gently pried her away from him. In this reality since he had stayed within the empire, his sister's affection was even greater for some absurd reason, and when he asked his mother who was pretty sure knew why but refused to tell him.
"How long are you staying Lulu?" Euphy asked as she reverted to her nickname for Lelouch.
"Not long, probably about a week." Lelouch answered Euphy as patted her head like he would do to Nunnally and now Euphy.
"Awww, but why?" Euphy asked as she made sad face in disappointment.
"I'm planning to go to Cambodia to visit Cornelia for a day or two to give her some prototype weapons, not to mention I needed to test the prototype sixth generation knightmare frames before I go to Area Eleven to see Nunnally."
"Oh, I see." The third princess of the empire said as she understood why now. Everyone knew that Lelouch adored Nunnally much like how Cornelia adored her. "can I come to?"
"Sure I don't see why not." Lelouch said with a smile.
Euphy made a happy face as she glomped Lelouch once more and gave him a peck on the cheek.
Off to the side, Monica's eye twitched as she saw how Princess Euphemia interacted with Lelouch. She was quite sure that wasn't how a sister should act towards her brother, even if it was a half-brother. She was sure despite being half-siblings Euphemia li Britannia was in love with Lelouch her master.
"Hmmm sixth generation? Impressive Lelouch, although my Camelot project has already begun building a seventh generation knightmare frame." Schneizel said, taking an invisible jab at Lelouch own project that was only building sixth generation.
"Well Schneizel, we are close to making a breakthrough to making a pilotable seventh knightmare frame although all of it is just currently plans, at least my knightmares can be piloted." Lelouch countered with courtesy.
It was true after all, despite Lloyd's genius, with no one to reign him in like in his past as the Demon Emperor, Lloyd 'new' assistant, Mariel Lubie, was going a good job no doubt, but it just wasn't up to par as how Cecile Croomy did hers.
Speaking of Cecile, he had tried to recruit Lloyd Asplund and even Rakshata Chawla to be on the staff of his Babylon Project. Sadly Schneizel had already taken Lloyd and Rakshata was nowhere to be found.
However this turned out to be a stroke of luck for him in the form of Cecile Croomy. Before he hadn't thought of her as anything more than Lloyd's assistant, but now…she was a genius nearly on par with Lloyd and Rakshata. The only thing that held her back was the fact that she wasn't a noble and that she stayed in Lloyd's shadow.
With her as the head researcher of the Babylon Project, things have progressed quite far. Unlike Lloyd who had refused any help from anyone and preferred to make it alone as much as possible -which consistently resulted in him making designs that were too far ahead of its time and as result the knightmare frames were unable to be piloted by normal KMF pilots Cecile actually worked with others and listened to their suggestion, which quicken the speed of the development. Of course he did give a few suggestions every now and then. Of course with Lelouch's limited knowledge on knightmare creation it wasn't something could help alot with but it did point the scientist into the right direction.
In fact she had already refined the float system enough to be installed onto an airship that he was ordering to be built. Well that was because he had told her to focus on the Float System first.
But this resulted in another treasure was her thesis on Energy Matter, in simple words the making of something physical with energy. It was a totally unheard of idea but one that was based off of the Blaze Luminous system. Although Lelouch would have preferred her to have finished the Energy Wing System-something would give him a major edge in battles- she was currently focusing making the Float System more energy efficient for knightmare frames and creating a system that would allow sakuradite to be scatter throughout the frame making it more powerful. Oh well he couldn't have everything.
"But Lelouch in the long run, the Camelot Project would be far more beneficial." Schneizel as he challenged Lelouch once more.
Lelouch smiled pleasantly on the outside. Oh how he wanted to place Schneizel under geass, but if he did his father would notice something and that was something he could not afford his father to know, especially about the fact he had geass.
Hell, Lelouch was wearing special contacts in case his geass got out of control and to protect him from other geasses, well ones that are based on eye contact. Speaking of none eye contact needed geasses, he needed to eliminate Mao.
"Oh, shush you two. Can you two not argue every single time we meet and hiding them behind polite words!?" Euphemia asked tired of the 'fight' that occurred between her two siblings.
Lelouch sat down in his commander's chair aboard the Vimana's bridge. The Vimana was the name that Lelouch gave to his personal airship that was recently just finished.
Of course as his private prototype warship ship, the Vimana was loaded with guns and missiles and last but not least four strategically placed Diffusion Structure Phase Transition Cannon or DSPT for short. Lelouch would've wanted the Blaze Luminous technology and Hadron Cannon technology readied by now, but he was happy with the progress as it was farther than in the alternate reality, and what's more it was his.
Monica was standing besides Lelouch as usual, but Euphy was by the windows of the bridge looking out in amazement. Since the float system was a new technology that was quite literally gravity defying.
The ship was like two black pyramids attached to each other with the head being longer. From the connecting points a triangular shaped black wing would sprout out horizontally. That was the float system at least the main part. And finally it was outlined in gold, Lelouch's personally color scheme you could say. It was this unique coloring scheme that struck fear into his enemies as well as gave courage to his allies.
Of course it would even be more fitting if the other feature of Blaze Luminous was finished. But alas it would have to do as the Black Luminous shielding itself wasn't finished.
"Destination Cambodia." Lelouch ordered.
"Yes your highness!" The crew of the bridge said as they started the engines and started to ascend vertically.
Cecile Croomy was at the center of the bridge making sure that everything was alright.
Thinking about her current position she couldn't help but smile at her luck. Meeting prince Lelouch now Knight of Five was the best thing that ever happened to her, at first she thought that she was going to be in Lloyd's shadow forever as it seemed to be the only way to get funding, but then prince Lelouch gave her an offered she could not refuse.
The chance to be recognized for her own genius.
Not as Lloyd's assistant, but as her own self with her own achievements.
Already because of working for prince Lelouch, she had completed the Float System faster than Lloyd and now she had finished a prototype of the float system for KMFs something that was actually her own work so it was something Lloyd didn't know. Although it was Rakshata who gave the idea, it was she who made it into reality.
Yep, Cecile loved her new position as the head scientist of the Babylon project. And to show her appreciation.
"Your highness, would you like to try my new recipe for a onigiri?" Cecile's smile widen as she heard her highness gasp, 'he must really be excited to try my new recipe.'
Good luck Lelouch, and we'll pray for you.
Author's Note: In my humble opinion if Luciano and Suzaku were ever to fight, Suzaku would kick his sorry ass halfway across the word, which is why I let Lelouch who has Suzaku level speed and strength to kick Luciano's ass in a way.
Btw a person with Suzaku's physical aptitude and Lelouch's intellect is scary and could easily take over the world wouldn't you say?
Anyways this is all I have written for now. Just a Code Geass fanfiction idea I had that I won't turn into a complete fanfic otherwise I would have added more detail.
