"You damn Eleven!" Villetta shouted as she aims her gun toward Lelouch and Jack, then a Knightmare Frame slaps her firearms in the side. "Lord Jerimiah, why!?"

"I already told not to interfere," Jerimiah shouted angrily.

Then making use of this opportunity, Lelouch grabs Jack as they jumped below the bridge, below a skeletal Knightmare shoot a black like things to support their downfall that made them easily entered a vehicle.

"You insolent fool! You intend to escape from the security measures we put in place!?" A Sutherland attach in the wall shouted with scorn as he saw Eleven below them.

"Lord Kewell!" Jerimiah shouted as he pointed his gun toward him.

"Do you intend to go against my orders!?"

"Any more actions like these will be considered treasonous from this point on! Understand this, I will only say it once, with all your might. LET THEM PASS!"

Looking at Jerimiah state, Jack couldn't help but smug his lips seeing his craze state to make them escape. Lelouch noticed his expression but didn't say anything as leaving is their priority.

In the abandoned building of Shinkujo Ghetto, Lelouch looks at the dirt on Jack's face as he said. "It appears that they treated you quite poorly."

"Who are you and where is Suzaku?" Lelouch asked.

Jack look at Lelouch with a smile on his face. "Who I am is not important, and about Suzaku, you knew already, right?"

A frown appeared on Lelouch's face as he looks at Jack with ill intent as he took a gun then pointed it toward Jack. "Did you kill Suzaku."

Being pointed by a gun, Jack expression didn't change as he looks at Lelouch with his usual smile. "No, I didn't kill him."

"Oh." Lelouch exclaim but his vigilance toward him didn't lessen.

"Where did you get that power?"

"What power?" Jack pretended to be confused.

"You know what I mean, don't fool around!" Lelouch said with an irritated tone due to Suzaku death his emotion is in turmoil state.

"Still, do you think a gun can threaten me?" Jack said with interest.

"What do you mean?" Lelouch asked.

"Ehe, don't ever use a threat on me or else."

You won't know, how you even died." Jack silently appeared on Lelouch side as he quietly whispered to his ears.

"What!" Lelouch's hands tremble as he didn't see Jack move to his place.

"Is that your power?" Lelouch asked because the term Geass was still unfamiliar to him so calling it power is understandable.

Jack can teleport to appear on Lelouch side, but he didn't do that because it will be too shocking to Lelouch who live in a world of science, so Jack only used his Geass to create an illusion that he was still standing while silently approach his side. Then again Geass could not be explained by science, so shrugging his shoulder regarding his action, Jack looks at Lelouch as he said. "More or less, senpai."

"Senpai?"

"Ehe, didn't you get your Geass from the woman in Shinjuku?" Jack said with a smile on his face.

Lelouch faces change as he didn't expect this person to know that much. "So this power is called Geass."

"Yup, its called Geass."

Lelouch looks at Jack beside him as he silently thought how to deal with him. "That girl, did she live?"

"Yes, and beside you will meet her soon."

Jack knowing Lelouch thought, said. "Ehe, Geass won't have any effect on me."

Lelouch took a step back with pale expression. "Y-You can read mind?"

"Ehe." Jack only laugh and didn't answer that made Lelouch thought that his guess is right making him more horrified as he didn't know the objective of the other party.

"Don't worry I have nothing against you, but if you interfere with my business, I can simply kill you like this." Jack appeared on Lelouch side again as he made a cutting gesture on his neck that made him sweat profusely.

Jack laughs seemingly satisfied teasing him. "See you again, Sen...pai."

Looking at his departing back, he felt the pressure lighten, and realize his body drenched in sweat. After analyzing that going against him is impossible, Lelouch decided to avoid Jack as much as possible because his enemy is Britannia not him.

Jack didn't linger much on Lelouch side as he made his way toward Britannia's army after Lelouch claimed his murder to Clovis. Jack can now freely go to court-martial to judge his innocence, that his purpose in the first place waiting for Zero to arrive taking the blame for killing Clovis.

Now he can freely go to Britannia without worrying about his status, although siding with Lelouch will make his side run smoothly. Jack can't let that happen because his growth is necessary for the future, the maturer Lelouch become, the better the world.

After going to court-martial to claimed his innocence, the Britannia didn't make it hard for him then Lloyd and Cecile greeted him after the trial.

"Congratulation Suzaku," Lloyd said with a smile on his face because Jack can now pilot Lancelot without any worry. Although Jack status is that an Eleven, Lloyd with the help of Prince Schenezeil can ignore his Eleven Status to become a knight for Britannia, so his position in Britannia is now secured. Cecile also greeted Jack with a happy expression because of the news that Jack didn't kill Prince Clovis, a sigh of relief escape on her mouth as she already regarded Jack as a companion, so when Britannia declared that Jack was a criminal, her heart jump with anxiety.

Cecile itself also didn't know why would she want to help Jack so much, aware that her behavior seems to be a lover worrying about her husband making blush unconsciously.

Jack didn't know their thought as he was busy thinking for his next action. After Zero appeared, a lot of territories turned more rampant due to that incident occasionally happen that made the citizen of Britannia worry about their life, so they silently curse Zero who made this terrorist like this.

Also because of that Incident, Deputy Governor-General Jerimiah lost his leadership position that made him hate Zero to the bone as he swears to capture him with his own hands.

"I'm home." A black haired teen said with an exhausted voice after the door open.

"Welcome home, Lelouch." A woman with light green hair and golden eyes wearing white straitjacket as she greeted Lelouch.

Startled, Lelouch looks at C.C and her younger sister. "Welcome back, brother."

"It appears you've already eaten dinner," C.C said as she folded a paper to make a Crane.

"I was worried, I thought that you might have been caught up in the chaos that Zero people caused," Nunnally said her worry toward Lelouch.

"Brother?"

"C.C came all the way here to see you..."

"C.C?" Lelouch looks at her with doubt.

"What a strange friend, using only her initials." Seeing Lelouch reaction, Nunnally releases a slight laugh.

"Yeah."

"Could it be that she's your girlfriend?"

"Huh?"

C.C look at confused Lelouch and said. "We made a vow to share the future, didn't we?"

"By future, do you mean marriage?" Nunnally said with surprised as she didn't expect that his brother

"No! no, it's not like that."

"She's, um, she's joking."

"I hate those," C.C said.

Lelouch pulled C.C on his room after interrupting Nunnally talking further, then push her toward the bed as he asks. "Who are you?"

"I already told you that I'm C.C..."

"That not what I mean..."

"Suppose to be dead?" C.C said.

"Do you like the power I gave you."

"Then you also gave that power to him?"

"Are Y... Him?" C.C look at Lelouch with a startled expression.

"Jack."

"Oh, did you already met him?" C.C said with interest.
