Britannia Prime Minister office room

Prince Schneizel el Britannia, second prince of Holy Britannian Empire and prime minister, was on paperwork after he able to take over Spain as a result of his strategy skills. He was so happy to see his victory against EU when his assistant, Kanon Maldini, enter the room as he seem to be not happy about what he's going to bring news to him.

Kanon: Your Highness, I have urgent news.

Schneizel: Yes? What's with an urgent you come here.

Kanon: It's... It's the Damocles.

Schneizel: Yes?

Kaon swallowed his throat as he said to him.

Kanon: The Damocles has been damaged.

Schneizel: Damaged? What happened?

Kanon: It appears that someone have sabotage the Damocles and it was exploded. Nobody got huurt, but the Damocles is damaged and it takes another time to repair it.

Schneizel: Do you identify the saboteur?

Kanon: No, Your Highness. He has able to escape before the explosion.

Schneizel put his hand on his chin. He has a feeling like someone have send a saboteur to ruin the Damocles he was planning to build to deploy to the outside. he figures that there's a faction knows about project Damocles and they wanted to prevent it from happening. He won't worry about that as he still focusing on winning the war so he just said.

Schneizel: Repair the Damocles. I don't care how long it takes to be full repaired. I want it to be ready when needed.

Kanon: Yes, Your highness.

He said, and leave the room. He lean on the chair thinking what is going to do next from new faction planning to destroy the Britannia. He need some rest after a lot of work as prime minister.

Ashford Academy

Oscar and two boys are walking in the hallway headed to their classroom. They talking each other while they on the way to the classroom.

Keshly: You know, this academy ain't bad when you get used to it.

Danny: The girls are getting like me because I have these muscles.

He said as he showing off his muscle arms and he was smiling to the girls.

Oscar: This academy is like every school in the Installation I've studied there.

Keshly: So I guess we're like going back to school. This is like when you and I met each other.

Oscar: Yeah. I remember that one when you accidentally bumped into me.

Keshly: Hey, I was on the hurry okay.

Ling Lu came to join the group as she said.

Ling: You boys sure way ahead of me.

Danny: Ling, where have you been?

Ling: I was on my way there when two girls blocking me, probably they're noble bitches. They bullying me because I'm not Britannian and what do I give to them? Quickly removes their skirts and throws it away. They scream and run away.

They are surprised she handle the bullies that targeting her.

Keshly: Well, I'm sure that once it's over, maybe we could study here.

Oscar: But, we're no longer study here and we just graduated. Also, we're still in the military.

Keshly: Oh right...

He said with his frowning face. They made it to the classroom as they see Suzaku has arrived before them. They ignore him and decided to take some seat then they heard the students talking about him.

Female student 1: Is that a guy who killed Prince Clovis?

Male student 1: No. The evidence was false and the footage of what happened in Shinjuku ghetto seems to be true.

Male student 2: I heard there are Britannian decided to turn against the Empire since Voice of Truth shows the footage.

Female student 2: What! That's insane!

Female student 3: Never in my life they going to against their own homeland because of that footage.

Female student 4: Do you think he's a terrorist?

Kallen, who is part of this conversation with other student seems lost her words of what she's going to say to them.

Male student 3: Of course not. The school board knows it.

Nina: An Eleven here at school?

Rivalz: He is an Honorary Britannian.

Nina: I know... but still all the same.

Shirley: Well he doesn't look all that scary to me, why don't we just talk to him?

She said as she's going to talk to him when Rivalz stop her.

Rivalz: Hey, the guy just got here. Give him some space.

Ling look at Suzaku unknown he was being spying on, she said to them in quiet voice.

Ling: You know, this doesn't make sense.

Danny: Why is that?

Ling: Well, last night, I have hacked into the system and I just saw something interesting.

Oscar: And what's that?

Ling: Apparently, the reason he enrolled here is because it was signed by Princess Euphemia li Britannia, third princess of Holy Britannian Empire. She's the sub-viceroy of Area Eleven. Unlike her siblings, she is a kind-hearted person that respects everyone, especially they're not Britannian.

Keshly: Hmm... I did hear about her. She is kinda beautiful if you ask me.

Oscar: Yeah. But don't forget it, she's still on Britannia side and she's our enemy.

Danny: Really? How can she be an enemy if she didn't do anything harmful to others.

Oscar: Still, she is a member of Imperial Family Britannia raised by her mother and her father aka Emperor Charles zi Britannia.

Ling: As much as I agree with him, but she isn't an enemy. Just not yet.

Oscar: If you say so...

Lelouch stands up from his chair and walk out of the room as Suzaku get attention to him and follow him at behind.

Danny: He's leaving the room. Shall we follow him?

Oscar: No. We'll leave them alone. We got some lesson about Britannia stuff.

And then, Kallen came to them and she said to them.

Kallen: Hello, you four must be new students, correct?

Ling: Ah, yes. We are.

Oscar: You know us during introduction so we don't need to introduce ourselves.

She take a seat with them. Danny said to her.

Danny: So... What's your name?

Kallen: I'm Kallen Stadtfeld.

Keshly: Stadtfeld. So, uh, you look kinda sick. Do you need to go to the clinic?

Kallen: Oh no, I'm fine. I'm just tired of school stuff, that's all.

Ling: Oh, I see... Well then, I hope we can get to know each other in the future. Right now, I think we'll be here a minute before a teacher arrived.

Kallen: Oh, you're right. Well then, I'll be seat there. Thanks to talking to you.

She said as she head back to her desk. They know she was lying about being sick since the CIA have also brief the information about every people they know. They come closer together as they said.

Oscar: We know she's lying about being sick.

Danny: Yeah. That's Kallen Kōzuki. She's half-blooded Britannian and half-blooded Japanese. I don't blame her, she have rough time ever since her home was conquered by Britannia.

Keshly: The CIA sure loves to gather information from other people.

Ling: So what's the plan about her?

Oscar: We're not sure yet. Let's hope the CIA have something for us.

They agreed to him. A teacher arrives as Lelouch and Suzaku comes back and take their seats. They behave themselves as they about to start the class.

New Bambasa SRA military headquarter

A man named Howard James R. Watson was a five-star general control the military headquarter in New Bambasa. He was serving in the military since Britannia invaded Indochinese Peninsula. He was ranking to general to control New Bambasa military headquarter. A military personnel came to his office room as he report to him.

SRA military personnel: Sir, the Damocles has been sabotaged.

Howard: Excellent work. With their sky fortress stays on the ground, it won't be trouble on us in the future. Anyway, what are other reports from earth.

SRA military personnel: Yes sir. The report from Japan that Cornelia and her forces have taking out few of Japanese resistances, including the Blood of Samurai.

Howard: Hmm... For what I know, she was looking for Zero character. Anything else?

SRA military personnel: The entire EU territories in Africa are taken by Britannia. It becomes their property now.

Howard: Which gives us an opportunity to get rid of those Britannians and give them protection until they become independences. Anything else?

SRA military personnel: No, sir.

Howard: Then you're dismissed.

He saluted him and leaves the room. He takes a deep breaths as he lean back and look at the picture to see him holding Oscar as 9-years-old. Turns out, he adopted Oscar when he and his men bring any Britannians that doesn't want to live in their country. Oscar was an example when he tells him his parents were died by car accident and nobles and polices are spitting him on the street. He feel sympathy to his poor life so he decided to take him in and give him a new life then adopting him as his own son. He takes another breath as he remembers he and his friends are now undercover agents working for CIA and he's worried about him if something happen to them.

Howard: I hope you're alright there, Oscar...

...

Nighttime

Oscar and the others are behind the bushes at outside the building where Lelouch and Nunnally lives there. They see Suzaku coming to visit them. Ling deploy a drone bug and fly to the window. She look up on a laptop as they watched the camera footage and see Lelouch, Suzaku, and Nunnally are having a reunion conversation. They watched and hear everything from them. Once they done their reunion, Lelouch and Suzaku headed outside the building and then they heard them talking to each other.

Lelouch: You should come by again. Nunnally would enjoy it.

Suzaku: Sure. But...

Lelouch: Huh?

Suzaku: Lelouch, I... I don't think we should be seen together at school.

Lelouch: What do you mean?

Suzaku: Think, how would you explain it. Being friends with Honorary Britannian? You have to guard your secret. No one can know your royalty. And the same goes for Nunnally. I don't wanna cause you any trouble.

Lelouch: Doing it again, huh? Everyone's needs but your own.

Suzaku: Again?

He said in confusion. Lelouch let his word out of him so he said.

Lelouch: Forget it.

Suzaku went downstairs before he said to him.

Suzaku: I'm so glad, you know?

Lelouch: Huh?

Suzaku: I never thought we'd get another chance to talk like this.

He said as he went back to his dorm ready for tomorrow morning. After hearing from them, Oscar and the others head back to the room and contact to the CIA.

Steve was looking on every reports on holographic computer that was important on earth. The one report was interested is that Damocles built by Torona Agency owned by Prince Schneizel has sabotaged to prevent it to deploy on the battlefield in the future. He was smiling about it. Then, he goes to the files and see a picture who is something interesting to him for a reason.

He searching about him and he got more interesting. He read the info about him that he was very loyal to Lady Marianne before her death, then when he heard Marianne's children are dead in Japan soil, he joins the Pureblood to against Japanese for killing them. He's unaware Lelouch and Nunnally are still alive and stayed in Ashford Academy so he decided to do with him. He contacted CIA agency on communicator device.

Steve: Director, send your best agent. I have someone that is important task.

...

Next Morning

After the class ended, Oscar, Keshly, and Ling headed to Lelouch dorm. Danny, on other hand, went somewhere else around the academy for something else. Oscar and his team take a peek as Lelouch is leaving the room with his sister then they make a move. Ling and Keshly stay outside to stay on guard if Lelouch comes back. Oscar pulled out a pocket pistol suppressor and goes in the room to see CC is still here wearing prisoner outfit.

CC: Oh. I see that I have unexpected visitor here.

He closed behind the door and he said to her.

Oscar: Yeah. Now, time for answers.

CC: Answers? Who are you talking about, boy?

Oscar: Don't change a subject, CC.

He said as CC surprised he knows her name. He held on a pistol suppressor pointing at her.

CC: So you have found me. Are you gonna return to a capsule?

Oscar: Lady, do you think I'm from Britannia Code R group? I ain't know them until my superior brief me and my team.

CC: Then, there's more of you here. And what do you mean by that?

Oscar: Question first, then I answer yours.

Then he noticed a cat is wearing Zero's mask. A cat is about to leave until he grabbed a mask from a cat's head.

Oscar: Now tell me, why are you so important to Code R.

CC: Hmph...

She went to sit on the bed as she replied to him.

CC: Who knows. Prince Clovis, Gen. Bartley and other staff officers knows about me. They planning to take my blood and use it to transform his personal army into immortal soldiers.

Oscar: And that is because you're immortal.

CC: Correct. Hmm... I wonder how you people figure it out about me. Who are you?

Oscar: If you must know, I am Oscar Martinus. As you can tell, I'm a Britannian. But unlike other Britannians, I attended to end the war by crushing the Britannia itself.

CC: So you're a rebel. A revolutionary, perhaps?

Oscar: That doesn't concern you, CC. My superiors are the ones I work for to end the tyranny and corruption of my own country. Now then, me and my teams are looking for you, and here you are, staying in the academy with a boy named Lelouch protecting from everyone else. Tell me why you're still here.

CC lays on the bed lazily as she just said.

CC: Tell me, do you know anything. A Geass.

Oscar: Yes. They told me about that power.

CC: Then you must know, Lelouch, you're referring to, is my acquaintance and my part of a contact.

Oscar: Contract?

CC: Yes. You see, when someone is worthy to have Geass, a successor becomes a bond of contract. Mine is code bearer so my two abilities is be immortal and handed over Geass to someone is worthy to possess it. They are people possessed Geass are around the world, blend in plain sight from humans who unaware the power existence. But now I answer your questions, it's my turn to ask you. Where do you come from and what's your goal?

He feel that she isn't hostile so he lowered his gun, but be cautious about her as he said.

Oscar: Our goal is not something to share to people like you to understand it. But for one clear, is to end all wars on earth and we can have peace. We have enough army to ready for attack soon.

CC: Hm? Soon?

Oscar: The preparation is still on going, but we have largest numbers that no world have seen before, not even the Holy Britannian Empire can't stop those kind of numbers... CC, I do want to take you in to my superiors, but that will be another time. You can do anything you want around here, but don't think we just forget about you. Once we brought you to my superiors, they will talk to you privately and you'll answer to them. Do we get a deal?

CC is thinking on the mind of her decision to take his deal or not. After that, she said to him.

CC: Hm... It's not like I bite you or something. But sure, you have a deal.

Oscar: Good. I'm glad we talked peacefully without violence unless you're planning something bad. We'll leave you alone, for now.

He leave the room as he and his team goes somewhere from Lelouch dorm. As they walking in the hallway, Danny comes back as they running to them and they said to him.

Keshly: Danny, glad to see you man. Where have you been?

Danny: Oh, yeah. I just need to deal with those bullies targeting on Suzaku at the locker room. I threatened them to not spray paint on his PE t-shirt and they scream like girls as they ran out of the room in fear. Let's hope they will learn a lesson or they ended up dead.

Oscar: If they part of military. We don't kill civilians unless they consider as combatants. Now let's go, we got some class to do.

Everyone went to the classroom for next schedule of class lesson.

...

Area 11, Unknown alley

Jeremiah was walking in the alley wearing grey coat and a hat to cover himself from the public. He was released by Gottwald, however, he lost his position as leader of Pureblood faction and goes back as pilot. He was receiving anonymous letter to meet someone here for special information. He feel it's a trap but he wanted to know about a special information the letter was talking about it. He keep walking in the alley until a woman wearing dark tailor uniforms and a grey coat hanging on her. Jeremiah feel suspicious to her as he carefully not to gall into her game. He said to her.

Jeremiah: Alright, lady. What is this about?

That lady was none other than Adele T. Armstrong herself. She said to him with a smile on her face.

Adele: Jeremiah Gottwald, correct? I see that your reputation was... provoked due to failing to catch Zero on that night.

Jeremiah: Nevermind that, lady. What do you want to bring me here in this stinking place.

Adele: A good place to talk private between you and I. But first, let's have a drink.

Timeskip

They're in the bar as they receive drinks from a bartender. She drank a wine as she said to him.

Adele: You know, I heard that you were once a guard back in Pendragon palace and you admired by your idol, Marianne vi Britannia.

Jeremiah take a drink and said to him with serious expression on his face.

Jeremiah: True. I was a guard to protect her and her children. Until that day, she was killed by some terrorist infiltrate Ares Villa. I don't know how they get in, but they killed Lady Marianne. With my biggest failure to protect her, the imperial court removes me as a guard and cast me away with my failures. When her children, Prince Lelouch and Princess Nunnally, was killed in Japan, I was furious of those people killing the only ones I have served with for long time. So I went to Area 11 and join the Pureblood faction to take my rage against Elevens for they taking the children of Lady Marianne!

He said angrily as he still feel regret of not knowing Marianne's death and her children as well. He can feel his mind clouded in failure and regret. Adele said to him.

Adele: Well, how would you like if they still alive.

Jeremiah wide open his eyes as she knows they're still alive. She look at her with his shocking expression.

Jeremiah: What?

Adele: Jawohl. We have looked on former Japan for few years until we found them. And I have it right here.

She said as she pulled out a folder with classified on it. She shows it to him as he opens the folder to see few pictures of Lelouch and Nunnally wearing student uniforms.

His hands is shaking up on the folder as his tears flowing from his eyes happily to see them alive. He smiled that they still live after so long years since Japan invasion.

Jeremiah: T-They're... They're alive!

Adele: Oh, there's more.

Jeremiah: Huh?

Adele: The Zero you mentioned, well we found the identity and look who is a person under a mask.

She said. He look up on the folder to see a picture of Zero.

Shockingly, he can't believe Lelouch vi Britannia was Zero all this time. The Zero that Prince Clovis murdered was his own half-sibling who killed him. Nevertheless, he glad those two children of Marianne are still alive. Adele said to him.

Adele: They're in Ashford Academy where they live there as normal citizens. It won't be long until someone recognizes them and expose their identities. You can visit there to see them. But don't call the Emperor or anyone else except you.

Jeremiah: Y-Yes. Yes! Anything to see them again!

Adele: Good. It seems we're done here.

She said as she drank her last wine and place a money on the table. She stands up and leave the bar. Before that, she said to him.

Adele: Once you read on the file, shred it. You don't people to hunt them down like they were prey.

And so, she leaves the bar and disappeared from the scene. Jeremiah look down on the file with Lelouch and Nunnally pictures on it. He closed it as he stands up and head back to military headquarter.

Jeremiah: Lelouch, Nunnally, I don't worry, I'll protect you two from anyone dares to harm you, either Britannians or Elevens who considered as my enemy.
