Code Geass: Demon Child
Chapter 14: False Flag and False Death.
A/N: Finally heading back to Liliana and she finally meet her father.
I took into consideration how much it strays from the fanfic main characters. So that will be the last time I will pull something like that. I actually want to scrap the last chapter and if I do, you would never notice because I realize it not very important, Liliana and canon characters not counting Wyvern Squad are the focus.
No more chapters like that. Sorry. On the bright side, I got reviews...
I need to speed it up so the time skip will happen more often with Liliana being age 12 by next chapter.
REEDITED:FIX A FEW MISTAKES.
RE-REEDIT:REWORKED THE CHAPTER AMD DELETED CHAPTER 14:BURNING SKIES.
REREREEDIT:Minor text fixes.
Also as a challenge to my writing skill. I rewrote this chapter on a fucking Leapfrog...a child Tablet. I'm not lying. It wasn't easy but as a writer, I'm prepare to use anything to get my fanfic out even on a flip phone.

Shirou Yuki
The Park
2 Month later
Liliana age 7
"H-how?",the middle age man stood up in shock, along with the small crowd who were impressed.
"I win! Again!",Liliana shouted happily. The little girl became a minor celebrity when one faithful day. She saw two people playing a game of Go. In her curiosity, she observes and eventually wants on the internet to figure out how to play. Then she decides it was time.
Liliana head to the park and challenge the first person she found...and lost. Then little girl refuse to be deterred, try again...and lost. Then third luck a charm and she won. It was honestly from the woman letting her win until she challenges old man Shinozaki. A Go legend who never hold back in training his student at the martial art school or more importantly, Go. He held the title of Jūdan for both his martial art school and the game. Everyone who knew the elderly head of the Shinozaki knows that. The look of shock on his and everyone else's when he lost the game to a little girl, who just started playing yesterday.
Once the shock wore off, he challenges her 3 times and lost all of them. Afterward, Liliana was accepted to the Martial Art school just on her intellect and that moment that how everyone especially Kallen learned how much of a prodigy Lily was. That victory causes her to challenge people decades older than her and actually beat them...for a whole month worth of undefeated streak until a mysterious stranger walks up to the park table after the most recent defeat.
"Make room everyone", his voice sounded young as he walked behind the visiting regional Go champion who heard of the child prodigy. A man who admitted defeat and shook hands with the child. Her legs dangling off the marble bench and eye level with the board.
"I sense great thing in you Liliana", he praised,"Maybe you will become a international champion."
She smiled brightly knowing that what she consider fun is odd to kids her age. But caring nonetheless.
Liliana wave at the next challenger as he took a seat,"Hi! What your name?"
"Jun Fukuyama", he spoke,"I heard you're a legend around here."
Liliana started clearing the board for the next game,"If we play I won't be going easy on you."
"I normally prefer chess. But it wouldn't be a problem today",the Japanese man explained as he observe Liliana,"You're welcome to make the first move."
"I won't be going easy on you Fukuyama-sama", Her eyes held determination.
"But I will hold back", The young man grinned,"I'll choose black as my color. Is that okay?"
"Um...sure", She hesitated,'Aw, I like black.'
"Let us begin…"
Aftermath
"I lost?"
"I told you...That was me holding back", Jin got up and walked away, as his daughter held her mouth open in shock. It wasn't even close. The man currently walking away, captured more of her stones by a massive margin.
As the crowd disperses, Lily shook her head and ran to the stranger.
"Mr. Fukuyama-san's!",She stood in front of the Japanese man,"How are you able to beat me? I'm unbeatable!"
"Liliana. Believe me when I tell you that they're always going to be someone better. Even a reigning champion can fall to arrogance's. It absolutely leads to their downfall. I'm no different either. I was just able to take advantage of both your overconfidence and lack of...skills."
He walked around her as she pouted, not believing it.
'Who was that guy?', the raven hair and red highlight girl couldn't shake the familiarity until an arm wrap around her neck and put her in a headlock.
"My best friend going to the same martial art school", Rin try sounding happy but came off as irritated,"What make you think you will survive the school? Did you not heard of the initiation and the rampant bullying? How the sensei's and staffs consider it a toughening program!"
"Rin, let go. You're choking her", a male voice commanded,"It true for most people. Matter of fact, the scars and bruises are from 3 things. My training at school, the fights I get into, and my mother."
On the last word, Hibiki eyes stare down in sadness, his finger temporary stop texting,'What am I thinking. She will return.'
Rin compiled as Liliana grasped for breath,"Unless you are me."
"Then you thrive. Pain and hardship built character and the students there wouldn't accept you until you prove you're strong. That when the bullying stops", the ninja pointed out, "Unfortunately...They will break you first. A sheep have no place amoung wolves."
"I swear I didn't want to join!",Lily panicked.
"Fine. I will protect you",he shook his head. It his duty to protect her nevertheless. It an oath he doesn't understand but as a Shinozaki must follow no matter the cost. It more then anything, the Bushido Code which is modify for modern society. A code of loyalty design to Shinobi's as oppose to Samurais.
"Here a hint", Rin glance at Liliana,"If you survive the first weeks and not drop out or 'break'. You'll be welcome to the family. The students are nice people once you get past the initiation."
"I'll give it a shot then."
"Exactly what did my great grandfather even said to you?",Hibiki commented.
"Well..."
FLASHBACK
Tour of the School
"For generations, the Shinozaki School of Martial Art has turn out some of the best fighters as well as upstanding civilians to the workforce. Pursuing varying careers as maids, butlers, farmers, priests, or more questionable matter. My students are trained to be strong in all human attribute of mind, body, and soul", Old man Shinozaki added,"I also install kinship among my students in order for everything to run smoothly. Its only fresh students that get the brunt of the suffering to prove themselves."
Liliana gulped in fear,"B-but I like a normal school."
"Hehe, It not too bad. So stop shaking.",he laughed," and my granddaughter going to fry me if harm to come to you. I just need you to help my school reach the top in the intellect competition. My middle school and high school club kept getting outsmarted by those Ashford rich kids and everyone else. It has been decades since we won an academic award or any kind."
'Beside, the whole reason why I even structure the martial art school is to teach my ideal system alongside the normal curriculum instead of it being an afterschool or summer time fling like most schools', he thought to himself,'And continue training sleepy shinobi.'
"I'm not that smart."
"I know a prodigy when I see one...what 125,358,445 X 856,215,360?"
10 seconds later.
"107,333,826,114,715,200."
The elder Shinozaki check the answer on his phone and gasped, taken by surprise that she answered it. It was a joke since he was certain she couldn't answer it. He calms himself and thought of another test,"Here a riddle. You will always find me in the past. I can be created in the present, But the future can never taint me. What am I?"
"History", She answers in under 2 seconds.
"The capital of Britannia, China, Japan, Britain, Germany, and Australia."
"Los Angeles, Beijing, Neo-Tokyo, London, Berlin, and Australia hasn't been fully colonizing. It still a hostile environment at the moment containing its native population."*
"I drift forever with the current down these long canals they've made, Tame, yet wild, I run elusive Multitasking to your aid. Before I came, the world was darker, colder, sometimes, rougher, true But though I might make living easy, I'm good at killing people too."
"Electricity."
"Good, I know you only have a brief glimpse at my credit card but what the numbers on them?",he took out his wallet and double check the hallway they're walking down is cleared.
"5529 4258 6006 2168", she recollected the brief moment where the old man took out his wallet for just a second to buy Liliana ice cream to sweeten the deal 30 minutes ago.
"What does this prove?"
"A certified genius, I pulled some strings and congrats. You are now in middle school."
"Huh?"
"I do control the town schools also",he chuckled.
End of Flashback
"I didn't know you were that smart?",Hibiki raises his brow.
"I didn't know either! I didn't think I was different from anyone else. Like you two are entering martial art championship above your age and weight level and winning", Liliana fidgeted,"I don't want to be anything special."
"Now who was that man?",the blue eye girl noted.
"I dunno...is it odd if I ask him if he's my dad?",the secret princess wonders.
"Yes, very weird", Hibiki nodded with the other girl in agreement.
5 minutes later
Jin Fukuyama was hurrying back to CC apartment and at that exact moment was about to remove his mask when the sound of tiny footsteps ran behind him.
"ARE YOU, MY FATHER!"
"Lily!",Hibiki and Rin yelled behind her as they were escorting her home when she decides to take a detour.
'Yes, I miss my daughter very much and I'm glad I found you', he thought to himself and turn towards the group,"No."
Liliana was saddened,"Worth a shot. But who are you really?"
The immortal underneath was going to repeat who he was until a certain witch came to him.
"He's my boyfriend", the immortal was beside the man and planted a kiss on his cheek before holding his hand.
"You have a boyfriend! Why didn't I hear of him?",Liliana cheered.
"He's from out of town and planning to move in", CC explained, ignoring the annoyance and rage coming from the man next to her,"If you want to see him again. He'll alway be at the apartment. Just knock anytime and never visit on weekends or late at night...especially late at night."
"That's fine. I just want to know how he beat me and if he can teach me how to surpass him!",she explained.
"The thing is-"
Cecilia nudges her elbow into Lelouch's ribs,"C'mon my love. It isn't fair to her or you. Does she need another trustworthy person and her mother been gone for weeks on her military duties? She got her grandparents but wouldn't it be wonderful if say, you train her and get to know Liliana? Train her to surpass you."
'It too early!', Lelouch couldn't wiggle out of his ordeal. Then again that mean the demon can finally speak with his daughter, influences her and hope either she will be the change to affect the past or if the peace hold. Liliana can grow up to be upstanding women...with questionable skill sets.
"You convince me. I will teach you, Liliana. I will teach you to defeat me", Lelouch accepted.
"Right alongside my life training", Cecilia felt proud of the progress she's making with the demon child.
"Pizza nanny taught me how to cook pizza, make a shiv, hotwire a car, and we're starting the basics on making a pipe bomb with wire trapline as an added bonus."
The Lamperouge knows that the skill set Liliana to describe would give any parents a heart attack. Except for him because that was the plan. Now if Kallen found out. There nowhere to run from a woman fury.
Elsewhere in Shirou Yuki, a 10-year-old boy dress in a winter coat and wearing a fedora smirked as his 'parents' unload the moving van. He looks down the street at the home of 3 of his targets.
"Liliana Kozuki, the Demon Child. How nice it is to have a family reunion", his grin widen knowing he wouldn't disappoint Shin. He adjust his fedora on his blonde hair and walk insid his house.
Nearby, a boy with a baseball cap and black hair his around the block.
"Faker",he uttered and deactivated his geass.*
Los Angeles
R&D Department
Zero walks down the long hallway to the hanger on the east wing of the royal palace. It was finally time for the symbol of peace to get back into the fight. To protect the world they sacifrice for.
The civil unrest reaches a boiling point recently when 3 factions, the bluecoats(Washington faction), patriots (Pax Britannia), and the doves(Harmony faction) protested and eventually turn into a violent riot and then a full-blown skirmish. A few radical member of the faction fire on each other. The enduring chaos resulted in members of a small terrorist cell taking action. The conclusion, They brought down a 9 story government building.
The responsible party was caught weeks later, every last one of them. But it was a wake-up call to the gravity of the situation. The peace is slowly crumbling.
All of this happened in New Orlean. A city under martial law as 100 people are killed and thousands injured.
"Zero!",Lloyd waved from a control console,"The overreach is ready."
The spacious hanger contain soldiers, engineers, and officer alike performing their own tasks.
"Great work Lloyd. I'm still amazed Rakshata agrees to work with the two of you."
"It wasn't hard when the well-being of peace is at stake! Besides, there no point in fighting nowadays", he then turns to the knightmare covered up in a white tarp.
"Where are the other two?"
"The pudding thief isn't allowed to smoke indoors and Cecilie in the other hanger modifying the Raiden. Poor girl, she has a heart attack when she says the condition it was in."
"Can I see my new knightmare?",Zero waited.
"Say ple~ase", he jeered.
Suzaku rolled his eyes and still wonder how he got into the military in the first place,"Please."
"Drop the tarp!",he signaled and with the light turn down except for the few which are directly on the frame,"I present...the Lancelot Overreach."
A thundering round of applause echo through the hanger.
Suzaku looks at the Knightmare before him and can't help but admire the handiwork Lloyd has done. It resembles a mix between the Shinkiro and Lancelot. All the hanger lights turn back on and everyone got back to work.
"Impressive", he then asked,"When can I use it?"
"When their propaganda available", Rakshata walk into the hanger from a door on the other end. She looked annoyed for being kicked out just because she want a smoke,"Zero shall be sent out as a moral boost as he slays the enemy of the world."
"So he'll be going to either take out a drug cartel base in South America, hunting Warlords in Africa, and if he's lucky, gain intel on where exactly the sneaky Light are hiding and putting a stop to them",the pudding addict listed,"there has been a flood of illegal Knightmares and military hardware lately in the Black Market. Perfect opportunity."
"Then my chances of using it is looking good", the second Zero wanted to pilot the overreach. But this time, the war he fights is far more defined. From the intel he learned, the Light and those attacking the Zero Requiem are anarchists or leftover poison who deserve to have righteous force brought upon them. Unlike the morally ambiguous side, he fought in.
"Indeed", the Indian engineer agrees.
Eastern France
Kallen PoV
Why am I even station all the way out here? Then it hit me...publicity. If I knew that instead of ripping a bunch of terror-oh wait...kidnapping, geass crazed fanatics,d**kless, assholes,c**t with a vendetta. I was out flying my Guren, for the sake of showing the world the legendary Red Ace is back in action. I would have said, 'Screw this! I have a daughter at home!'
All I did lately where interviews, autograph signings, and whatever getting famous entitled. The only real excitement I have was dueling that cyborg last month and easily wiping out a radical terrorist cell in Syria. Then again, that was military service. I'm glad I was transferred to REQUIEM.
So happy in fact, I was guarding a handful of archaeologists and soldiers investigating a strange site. It isn't a Thought Elevator, just a cave with Geass symbol and artifact dating back 50,000 years. The others are still out searching the globe for the Thought Elevators as well as securing other historically supernatural sites. Even if it's not affiliated with Geass. It's manageable compared to my time as a terrorist and a Black Knight.
What am I even thinking? Wondering why I'm not in the path of danger.
The answer is obvious. Even if Nunnally and Suzaku know I can handle myself, the real reason is because they want me to return home to Liliana. I miss her, my parents, and Lelouch. Wherever you are and whatever you're planning. I hope it to give the Light hell.
And can that stoic ass call me every now and then?! Just one phone call to know what you're up to!
I should've written down that number he called me from back at Ashford.
Every day and night, My daughter and I chat on the smartphone or laptop; not caring whether or not I'm using data or wifi. I'm there to tell her good morning even if the sun is setting behind me. I'm there to ask her about her day and bid her goodnight, reading bedtime stories from hundreds of miles away.
Another time, I surprise her by pulling a Lelouch, lying. I felt awful seeing her face as her bright and cheery smile turn into a frown as she squeezed her cheese-kun tightly knowing my flight home is going to be delayed indefinitely. Then when I open that door and gaining my little angel attention, NOT demon child. I will smite whoever say demon with radiant energy. But, The look on her face was worth it.
In a week, I will ask for another leave.
I have been traveling the world lately and the sites are beautiful. Just yesterday, I met a strange caravan with Britannians, Japanese, Gypsies, and Europeans. They were nice people.
I'm on my patrol/break in a nearby town looking for souvenirs to bring home. The site is now secure and fences off from the locals until further notice. The backup recently arrived and now I'm available to enjoy myself.
Maybe a nice beret, some special edition cheese-kun, or a snow globe would work.
The town was lively, the sun is out, and the air smell fresh with a light breeze. Men and women head to work and children to school. A few waving and saying hello to me in french. I normally have a guide or anyone who speak french, but a simple,'Je ne parle pas français' or 'bonjour' should work.
I wanted to stroll around town and clear my mind. How that working for me? Horrible.
My eyes keep playing tricks on me.
I saw a group of girls in their teen gossiping and my eyes fell on a particular girl. She remains silent and nodding to everything they say in a sickly manner. I have a brief deja vu as I saw myself as that girl...a sickly frail student who's secretly a rebel.
Then a little girl, same age as Liliana was pulling on her mother dress. She was pointing at a doll on a store window. Even in a completely different language, I understood the intention.
The breaking point was when for a second, time froze. I only saw raven hair and he was down the street.
I wanted to scream his name but I would look insane yelling the name of a dead man.
The only words that escape my lips was,"Lelouch."
Can't it be him? No! He wouldn't show himself in public.
I turn around and walk the other direction. My face remain stern even if it's a different story inside.
Why am I acting so weak? I fought and killed countless people, soldiers, and innocents. I walked the battlefields filled with fallen allies and enemies. I bombed civilian center to free Japan. I did it all without remorse.
Except when I betray Lelouch, not once but twice. Why was I sure a fool, I'm his Knight and I love him.
My heart nearly died when he pass. The only reason why it isn't completely gone is because of Liliana.
I felt as if I didn't deserve the punishment I desire. Lelouch never hated me for my actions and yet, I'm quick to snap at him. I'm such a hypocrite and a traitor.
I found an alleyway for me just to relax. I lean against the wall, calming myself.
That when my phone ring.
"Kozuki speaking", I answered.
"Q-1."
Impossible! Then again,"Le-"
I almost yelled his name in angry and joy, mostly the former.
"Sorry for the delay", he apologizes as if having a one night stand, getting himself killed the next day isn't a big deal. Followed by 6 years of moping, then seeing each for only one day. Then Lelouch have the audacity to not call me for what? 5 months to say, sorry for not calling! He better has a good reason! That why I moved further down the alleyway.
"YOU BETTER HAVE A GOOD REASON!",I screamed,"You can't leave me alone twice! With a child for years and expect a warm welcome! Her birthday was last month you jerk! And I was late for it! Unless you're in Shirou Yuki and hiding in plain sight! I'm going to slap the immortality right off your face!"
That should have been the first thing I said when I met him. I just so happen to be in a better mood and because my mother was there...then my father. Hell, I suspect he set everything up to was I wouldn't yell at him on sight.
"Would you still yell at me if I told you the exact locations and members of the Light organization to hand over to Zero. I was busy tracking them so Nunnally can get rid of them in one fell swoop. I just need you to pass the information on", Lelouch answers.
"Where are you?"
"I'm in the same town. My hideout is actually directly down the street from where you say that pretty man with raven hair",Lelouch spoke with fake jeolousy in his words, mocking me really.
"THAT WAS ACTUALLY YOU! My mind wasn't playing tricks on me", now that took me by surprise,"Why were you out in public like that?"
"Same hair different face Kallen. I thought you knew the routine?",he added sarcasm to the last sentences," You can't miss it. Look for Château Hôtel Rouge. You can't miss the red walls hotel. But it a red that doesn't match your...Beauté unique mon chevalier crédule. Just ask the attendant about a room in D-5"
"I have no clue what you said. But I'm on the way", I felt my cheek turn red and thought how Lelouch always has a way with words. Especially with the romances language like French. I just can't wait to meet him and from what he's telling me. I can get back at those bastards for kidnapping Liliana. If only I knew...
Shirou Yuki
Normal PoV
The next morning at the Park
Shirou Yuki tends to have cold or chilly weather because of its northern location like today. But it didn't deter a student and her sensei from their game. The game today isn't Go, but Chess. A game in the Sensei words "Shall teach you the finer point of strategy and tactics."
"Why do you move the king first?",she asked, rubbing her hands between her mittens.
"If the king does not lead, how can he expect his subordinates to follow", he answers.
"Did you got that from somewhere?",she asked.
"It's my maxim in life along with a few more principles I abide by", he put Liliana king into check with his queen.
Liliana covers her head on the table,"I give up."
She rationalizes that no matter what move she makes. Her sensei always a step ahead.
"It only the second day", Lelouch places a hand on Liliana's head,"I am training you to surpass me."
The girl looks up and notices a move she can do to turn the tide, her arm reach for her knight to take the queen while bringing Lelouch king in check.
"Check", she smiled.
"See", he congratulated,"Only a matter of time. There just one problem...don't underestimate any pieces on the board. They all carry equal obligation with unequal numbers and abilities...the obligation to win."
Liliana look back at the board and knew, she felt for the trap. He move his king away and she move her bishop to take the hit from a pawn of all things. It was useless as her own bishop trapped her with a few black pawns ending the game.
"Checkmate", and like that, Lelouch won. He wasn't trying too hard but he was surprised by the fight Liliana gave him. Maybe some day she'll surpass him. Until then, she's still learning the basics. His little girl lost because she ignored the pawns.
The game was over and it was the right moment for Lelouch to proposed important questions.
"Liliana, how do you feel about your mother leaving?"
"I miss her dearly. She is the best mom in the world", she frowned before a smile tugged at her face,"But I know she's a strong woman who can handle anything and anyone in her way. She is a legend inside a knightmare and number one mom in my heart."
"She sounds like a wonderful person. What about your father?"
"..."
"I'm sorry for prying. Did your mother ever talk about him?",Lelouch handled his word with care.
"All she told me that he was the greatest person to ever enter her life. She loves him and if I meet him; I would feel the same", Liliana felt tears trickled down.
"Lily."
It was the right time. He can't afford to wait any longer. Maybe he kept the act on for so long is because he's afraid of not being accepted. That she will look at him as a monster if she knew his true face. I can't show my true face, not yet.
"Only friends and family call me Lily."
"I'm a liar Liliana", he claimed with his mask not being able to hide the sorrow in his voice,"I lied yesterday."
"Huh?",the little girl uttered.
"Liliana Kozuki. I am your father."
The silence passed between the two. It felt like an eternity as the cold northern air and the occasional crippling of birds fell within the calm.
"D-Dad?"
Kallen PoV
The Day I left
Hotel Room
"Lelouch...", he was in a decent hotel room with not much in it. It seems like a cheap one-night rent sort of place. Lelouch was dress in white long sleeves and back pant with his ID mask on the bed.
"Kallen", he was right in front of me! And like any girl who hasn't seen the guy who ditches her twice. I walked up to him with emotionless faceface and slap him. Then I realized...I abandon him twice and he didn't hold any grudge against me. Then when he does the same...I'm an awful person.
"Sorry, Lelouch. But you abandoned me longer then I did", Great comeback to hid my shame.
He rubbed his red cheek and then violet eyes look into mines. He wrapped his arms around me and I did the same.
"I miss you Kallen", he uttered as my heart pound,"I'm sorry for being gone for too long. I needed to hunt down every last members of the Light. Victory is close and once this is over I'll return to you. I promise."
We held the embrace until I felt a sharp pain in my back?
"Huh?",he let go of me and my whole body fell forward. It as if invisible strings were cut from above and I collapse.
"What the h-hell? L-Lelouch! Why!",I try speaking but it only came in a soft whisper. Did Lelouch betray me? Why would he? That not possible! He wouldn't! He's not Lelouch!
"I'm sorry sweetheart", I could only see his shoes,"Let us send a message to your demons."
I felt myself get carried up and by consciousness fade to black. I can't help but feel I betrayed one more person...Sorry, Liliana. I'm not returning home.
Tai Julong PoV
Location:Unknown
"Welcome to the world of the living ", I found a chair in the heavily guarded hospital room,"Disappeared for 14 years from the burndown orphanage and now causing the destruction of an entire Japanese military base."
She was heavily injured from her massacre weeks ago. Granted, most of it wasn't her fault.
It took a lot just to retrieve her and if Japan found out. My title as General will be stripped along with the opportunity to save the world from itself. I killed a handful of Black Knight...fix that, all of the surviving knights on that island under a guise of Light operatives.
"W-what of it?",She has a tube running through her arms and handcuffs on her wrist. Her word coming off as very raspy and quiet.
"What of it?",I smiled,"Tell me everything and you'll live."
"..."
"Fine", I got up to the IV bag with a needle filled with 'Truth Serum',"This needle is filled with Sodium Amytal. Maybe you'll be more truthful."
Her eyes widened in surprise,"You bastard!"
"Now be cooperative", the needle hover over the valve to disperse the fluid,"How about you tell me what your motives are and I'll tell you mines. Help me to help you. If not? The world knows you're dead and no one is coming to rescue you. I'm free of the Geneva Convention as long as I don't get caught. And if you notice, Alice Halliburton died in the fire, tragic."
"..."
"Still nothing?",I shrugged and press the needle into-
"WAIT!"
"Smart move ", I put the needle away,"Let talk."
I couldn't believe it! The truth of Geass going to be revealed to me. A power I want to control.
After the interrogation
Hallway
"What did ya get?"Dave Anderson, the mercenary-sorry, private contractor, turn advisor and member of my imperial guard asked. For a guy who has been acting like an adult-baby when I met him. He turns out to be useful.
It was late when Alice spilled everything and I told her what I planned to do. And we came upon an alliance in order to accomplish our goals. Honestly, It was more of me telling her bit and pieces of my plan and what I know until she gives me one piece of information. Then slowly, the talk started cascading till we learned our goals can benefit each other.
"Everything I need", I smirked, knowing exactly what the Light trying to do,"Like I'll let my country get destroyed."

History/technical notes:
The Z-01/O Lancelot Overreach is the one of the latest of KMFs to bear the Lancelot name, and one that will be piloted by Kururugi Suzaku, aka the "new" Zero. The basic design of Lancelot Overreach stems from its predecessor, the Z-01Z Lancelot Albion, but thanks to cooperative work between Lloyd Asplund, his assistant Cécile Croomy, and Rakshata Chawla, it also incorporates some offensive and defensive capabilities of the 8th generation KMF Shinkirō. Like the Shinkirō, the Lancelot Overreach can fire off its Zero Beam from its chest-mounted cannon and its two Hadron Cannons, and form up Absolute Defense Territory energy shield barriers but with a minor distinction; the complex maintenance of plotting the trajectories of incoming projectiles and shifts the shields accordingly can optionally be done through an A.I. computer in the Druid System which frees up the pilot's hands to focus on the objective at hand. However, in adapting some of Shinkirō's main strengths, it has also adapted the Shinkirō's main weaknesses as well. Fortunately, it is a calculated risk that is balanced out by the Lancelot Overreach offensive capabilities at long to mid-range, such as firing off all its projectile weapons simultaneously or separately, and offensive maneuvers for close quarters combat with its four Slash Harkens and two Maser Vibration Swords. The pilot can manually fire off all or separately its projected weapons or leave it up to an A.I. computer in the Druid System to coordinating, tracking, and fire on targets.
Regular colors: white, black, and yellow.
A/N: Like I said.I felt awful about the last chapter and unlike chapter 8 with its 3 parts. I don't have a valid excuse.
Also, at this moment, things start going downhill and the reason for Liliana traveling back in time is completely valid.
And brace yourself, character deaths are coming.
Did anyone notice I used Lelouch Japanese VA name as a cover for him?
I feel cruel for tormenting Liliana with one heartbreak after another. But pain built character and by the time of Time Zero. She truly will be the Demon Child. Let see...CC experiences+Lelouch genius+Liliana genius+Piloting skills from 'Lady Marie'=One scary child.
I can say the same for Rin,Euphie(Cornelia tactics and piloting skills/Euphiemia kindness/Suzaku ideals),Hibiki(Anya+Jeremiah+Sayoko=Texting addicted 1000% loyal ninja), and Barlow(Leila genius+Akito piloting skills). Rei and Arthur also good and fill their own niche in the fic.
*Headcanon: Sorry if I offended any Australian.
Australia was never colonized or at least not as much with minimum success and resource. At the time of canon Code Geass, the world and Britannia were busy fighting each other to pay attention to what is viewed as a continent with no strategic or resource value. Now that the war is over, the continent recently became prime real estate for interested investors. I may have Australia be an area of interest based on the headcanon I made. The continent certainly has a lot of places to hide. The only problem is trying to survive in the uninhabitable region.
NEXT CHAPTER TITLE:All is Hell that end Well...
I got that off a song title from HDsounDi on youtube. It just sound like a awesome title and fit the tone of what going to happen when the world turn on you.
Read and Review everyone.
*-That was a fate/stay night reference. Why? For any Fate/Stay Night fan. Rei act like Gilgamesh and if you seen him in other spin off games, other then the atypical villian in Fate Stay/Night. That basically how he acts.
