Disclaimer: Fan of Fanfics21 does not own Code Geass or its spin-offs. OCs and ideas are mine however.

Also, my concept of Cyphers is something I did in my other works involving Naruto and decided to try out my favorite anti-hero Lelouch instead of Naruto because All Hail Lelouch right? So expect Lelouch to get strong but not godlike. I'm trying to show that he's still new with his powers and such that he's bound to face consiquences of his actions doing so. Expect some changes to the canon Code Geass whilst doing so!

To know more about Cyphers, I wrote 'files' that contain lore on Cyphers in Cipher Origins: The Dragon Wars at the start of my chapters so you can understand their background a bit more and how certain characters become strong as they are.

There was a theory of something that exists beyond the world we live in. A myriad of other worlds with different rules and concepts that the world could not have in its own. It is called parallel worlds, alternate realities and the multiverse. It could not be proven in your world, but to those who do exist in these hypothetical worlds and have powers that no human should even wield, and even the existence of divine beings that can't be comprehended.

To some, it is a use in fictional entertainment but I assure you, oh reader mine, that these places exist. Now, let me tell you a tale of how a guardian of the multiverse was born, of a Cypher by the name of Lelouch who had lost so much and endured what could break lesser souls face the impossible and become legend. This my dear reader is the legend of Cypher Lelouch, the Black Knight of Rebellion and how I played a role in awakening his full potential.

The young boy ran in the pitch blackness of the unknown, looking left and right for any clues to where he was. There was nothing here and even though he wasn't physically fit, he was capable of running without feeling even an ounce of exhaustion, something that the boy took heavy notice of as he did not even feel physically right. He stopped and looked around carefully before speaking up. "Whoever is there, show yourself!" he demanded.

"Lelouch vi Britannia, seventeenth in line for his kingdom's throne. Born child to an emperor and a commoner woman...I've been waiting for you."

The voice echoed out in the darkness and it soothed Lelouch; it was old and gentle, akin to his grandfather from his mother's side when he first met him. But even now, he was wary of this unknown voice as Lelouch tried to figure out the source of the voice as it chuckled.

"Worry not child, you are currently dreaming and I've come with an offer...only if you're interested in it."

"An offer?" Lelouch inquired, his mind suddenly alert and cautious as he acted like a clueless child.

"A great calamity threatens mankind as a whole, a prophecy of ruin and for that reason me and other great powers seek humans worthy to wield our powers. I've seen your story, and offer you this pact to become more than what you will become. You do not need to decide now but keep this possible path as an optional choice. Remember...will you remain who you are now or will you fight for the justice you believe in and fight for it to the end?"

Lelouch paused at the question as he pondered what could possibly happen in the future. He was given time to think this over and the world that was once dark was now being filled with light. But no matter what happened afterwards, Lelouch had kept the memory of this dream in mind and refused to let it go. This one dream would be the catalyst of a great change in this world's timeline as a new path was forged.

*Japan-2010 a.t.b.*

Japan had lost.

Buildings were ruined, corpses littered the streets and the ones living grieved for those that had departed. It was hell on earth and the cause of this was that of Britannia's doing as they bombed Japan and unleashed their new weapons the Knightmare Frame unto the small nation. Defeat was the inevitable outcome to the juggernaut empire as Lelouch at the age of ten carried his blind and crippled younger sister Nunnally vi Britannia through this nightmare through grit and willpower along with Suzaku Kururugi, a boy born in Japan and Lelouch's only true friend to reach a safe haven for them.

The fruits of their labors paid off as Lelouch and Nunnally would head towards where the Ashfords were currently residing in while Suzaku would go back with his remaining family, but that sunset was the vow that set their destiny in motion-one that too would be altered by the dream the boy had long ago.

"So help me Suzaku I swear...one day I will...Obliterate Britannia!" Lelouch vowed with his eyes blazing with righteous fury. It was in that exact moment in the back recess of his mind, the ancient voice laughed in delight at the resolve the ten year old boy had.

On that very night as Lelouch went to sleep, the same dream from long ago returned and with it the voice from before.

"So child, you seek power yes? Be warned that power is not given, but earned. All I am doing is giving your dormant power the initial spark. Prove yourself worthy as my Cypher, then you will be able to wield my power as you see fit. But the question is, what will you fight for in this path of infinite possibilites?"

Lelouch closed his eyes for a bit and began thinking on what the voice told him. It was almost out of those superhero shows he watched here in Japan before the invasion of where a 'chosen one' would be given something to help save the world from a great evil. But this is reality and he knew that one day he will have to make choices he might not like. Was it wrong to be weak? Is it might that makes right?

No.

He refused to accept that, because what would become of Nunally then? What kind of twisted justice is that? He refused to bend to this Social Darwinism that his father and all of Britannia preached and tear down that wretched system once and for all. His eyes have opened to the truth, he will cling to his ideals of justice even if it means being chained to the very depths of hell itself.

He will grow stronger and prove his father wrong on what is right and then change this world for the better. He looked to the 'sky' of this dream and made his decision.

"I accept this path of a Cypher, I will defeat Britannia, liberate Japan and create a better world for Nunnally!" he declared with a fierce resolve that showed no backing down as silence filled the air.

"Very well then child. I shall awaken your dormant power, King of the Void and my heir as Lord of Rebellion. Hone yourself in not just the mind, but of the body and you will be able to truly make your desires reality, oh champion mine."

Glowing tendrils of light slowly manifested as they gently wrapped themselves around Lelouch and craddled him in the air, the boy hearing a hymn echoing around him as a vast whiteness enveloped his sight.

"Lelouch! Hurry up and wake up! We need to get moving!" shouted one Milly Ashford, a young girl whom was reunited with her childhood friend from the homeland as Lelouch stirred from his slumber. What she saw next startled her-Lelouch's eyes were different as the pupil and limbal ring were glowing white.
