Chapter 16
Allos Universe
Area 11
Lelouch wearing casual clothes running through the rain to meet up Shirley for Orchestra theatre. It was raining for this universe so he used his umbrella to cover him. He finds Shirley holding an umbrella to be covered from the rain waiting for him though he finds her expression seem saddened. So he approached her and said to her.
Lelouch: Sorry for being late. I hope the concert has time to start the show.
Shirley: Yeah... I understand...
Her response sounded sad to him.
Lelouch: Shirley, is it okay?
Shirley: Yes. I'm fine.
Lelouch: You sure? I can tell by your expression...
Shirley: I SAID I'M FINE!
She shouted at him. Lelouch was flinched by her outburst.
Lelouch: Geez, Shirley. I know I was late, but there's no need to get angry.
Shirley: I... I'm sorry... It's just... something happened to my family. It's personal.
Lelouch: Oh...
He said. He goes to her as he puts her head on his shoulder and hugs her to calm down. She started to feel calm now.
Lelouch: Whatever happens to your family, you just have to do anything to help your family. Okay?
She gave him a nod. The reason she was upset is because her father had lied to her and her mother about his job as a mechanic, but in reality, he works as a scientist and does human experimentation for Prince Clovis. She needs to clear her mind off about what happened that day. She started to cheer up.
Shirley: You're right. Thank you, Lulu.
She embraced him once more. He stroked her hair for once. After that, Shirley grabbed his hand.
Shirley: Now come on! It's almost starting.
Lelouch: Okay, okay.
They rushed toward the orchestra theatre. In the far distance, two dark hooded figures are watching them going straight to the theatre. They showed their scary smiles on their faces and chuckled.
Anneliese: Looks like we found him.
Annika: I wonder when he realizes both ones he dearly loved have gone missing. Wouldn't you say, sis?
Anneliese: Indeed. Now come on.
They turned around and disappeared from the scene on the rainy day, waiting for Lelouch to return to Ashford Academy to find something shocking and tragic.
...
After they returned from Parallos universe, Taizo and Kaguya return to Mt. Fuji to tell to other members of Kyoto House. The Black Knights went to the base in Port Yokosuka as Lelouch or Zero ordered. Daniel and Milly, wearing casual clothes, headed back to Ashford academy when Daniel heard the phone ringing so he picked it up and said it on his smartphone.
Daniel: Yes?
Lelouch (on phone): Daniel! Come quickly to the Ashford academy!
Daniel: Lelouch? What's wrong?
Lelouch: Just come quick!
Daniel: Alright! Stay where you are!
Milly: Daniel, what's wrong?
Daniel: It's Lelouch. Something is happening in the academy. Let's go!
They both run towards the Ashford academy. They reached the academy and as they entered the academy to see Lelouch was very shocked and nervous.
Daniel: What's happening, Lelouch?
Lelouch: It's Nunnally and Sayoko! They're gone!
Milly: What!
They rushed into the room to find the furniture and objects were trashed, the windows were broken through, and the curtains were blowing to the direction where the window was.
Lelouch: When I come back here, I find this room was trashed and I can't find them.
Daniel: Someone comes here and kidnaps them.
Milly: No...
She places both of her hands to her mouth in shock of why someone wants to kidnap Nunnally and Sayoko. She feared that it was OSI who had done this. She fears that they will find her and take her into custody.
Daniel: Do you find something left behind?
Lelouch: I have this.
He shows them on a letter on his left hand while the other is a video tape on the right.
Lelouch: I found this on the table. This must belong to the kidnappers.
Daniel grabbed a letter from him as he read it.
" WE HAVE YOUR PRINCESS AND YOUR MAID. IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHERE THEY ARE, PLAY THIS VIDEO AND YOU WILL SEE. DON'T BE LATE OR THEY BOTH DIE."
Lelouch: I can't believe the OSI have found her. My sister is in trouble.
Daniel: This is not OSI work.
Lelouch: Huh?
Daniel: If they were OSI, Sayoko wouldn't have a problem taking care of them. Besides, she is a trained ninja maid so she can kill them within a minute. No, this must be working on something else. Something that happened to Kusakabe and Katase and his rest of officers who are turning into monsters for the unknown.
Lelouch: Daniel, please! You must help me find them. Nunnally, she...
Daniel: Don't worry, Lelouch. We will rescue them. Call Kallen to join us at the home base. Right now, let's see what this video tape contains.
Lelouch: Thank you.
He said. They ran out of the academy to reach the ULA home base. Milly, on the other hand, was nervous and sweating that Nunnally, who sees her as her little sister, has been kidnapped by someone who related what happened to Kusakabe, Katase, and other JLF officers in Narita. Not only that, Nunnally's maid, Sayoko, has also been kidnapped as well.
Milly: Nunnally, please hold on. We will save you.
...
Abandoned building, Shinjuku ghetto
Sayoko and Nunnally continue comforting each other until the door opens to see Anneliese and Annika, along with four lycans, enter the room with smiles on their faces.
Anneliese: Comfortable?
Sayoko glares at them as she stands up holding Nunnally in her arms. Nunnally was fearful toward them as she placed her head on her shoulder.
Sayoko: If you're planning to torture us, get on it. But I'm not let you touch Nunnally.
Annika: Well... about that. We come here to tell you that we found Lelouch.
They both gasped and they found Lelouch which made it worse for them worrying something would happen to him.
Anneliese: There's no need to worry. We didn't kill him... yet.
Nunnally: Big brother...
She muttered, hearing they have found Lelouch.
Annika: We come here to make it worse so we show it to him of how suffered he was. It will be priceless to see him in despair.
She said, laughing like a crazy maniac.
Sayoko: Don't you dare make Lelouch suffer just as you did to us!
Anneliese: Oh, we will. Besides, you two are going to have special treatment.
She said. They made evil chuckles as they slowly stepped forward to them.
Nunnally: Mommy!
She holds her surrogate mother's arms so tightly.
Sayoko: Don't worry, Nunnally. I will not allow them to harm you.
She said as she went up against the wall, protecting Nunnally with her life. Anneliese, Annika, and their lycans reached their hands toward them and it went dark.
...
Aiwi Apartment
Aiwi wearing pajamas just eating her dinner she brought it from Parallos universe. She's eating traditional Japanese food such as sushis, onigiris, and miso soup.
Aiwi: Mhmmm... It's too good to taste Japanese food so much.
After eating dinner, she went on the couch and turned on the TV to see what's going on in the Parallos universe. All she can see is commercial shows and Christmas deals in every store. She changed the channel and caught something amusing. She saw a Japanese game show called Brain Wall.
Aiwi: Brain wall? And it was made by Japan. Oh, I wonder what made this show entertaining.
She is watching Japanese game show as she sees a man wearing some sort of man as a player is trying to make a body to go through the hole, but it ultimately fails and falls into the water after the wall pushes him.
https://youtu.be/6DYJXSSgW08
This makes her laugh so much.
Aiwi: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! That guy wasn't able to fit the right hole. Ahahahahaha!!!
As she laughed while watching the show, she received a phone call on her smartphone so she picked it up and answered.
Aiwi: Yeah?
Daniel (on phone): This is an emergency situation. Come to the home base immediately.
Aiwi: Right away!
She said. She gets out the couch, turns off the TV, changes her clothes and leaves her apartment.
...
Daniel, Milly, and Aiwi become Patriot Knight, Justitia, and Jiyu as they have an emergency meeting. Lelouch and Kallen wearing casual clothes have come here as well.
Daniel: Alright, I managed to convert this video tape and transferred it to a holographic device so we can see what video shows us.
Milly: I hope what they want from us by kidnapping my sister and Sayoko.
Kallen: Wait. You consider Nunnally as your own sister?
Milly: Yes. And I will protect her with my own life.
Her words surprised Kallen that reminded his brother who was the leader of the resistance group to fight against Britannia colonial Area 11 before he was killed. She made a vow that her brother's legacy won't be in vain and she will fight until Japan has been liberated. They turned on the holographic screen to see Nunnally stripped naked on the chair and she has bruises all over her body. She looked exhausted after the beatens from the Witch Sisters. Everyone was shocked in horror to see her appearance like that.
Lelouch: Nunnally!
Milly: Oh my god!
She covered her mouth in horror.
Aiwi: What the hell those bastards do to her!
Then they heard a woman's voice in the background speaking to her.
Anneliese: Hey, speak up! Say it on the script.
Nunnally is unable to speak so they start to electrocute her as she screams in agonized pain.
Everyone was horrified to watch her being electrocuted by the kidnappers who are identified as women.
Lelouch: Nunnally!
Daniel: Those damn bitches!
Aiwi: Oh dear god!
Milly: Nunnally!!!
She shouted as she couldn't bear to watch her little sister figure being tortured. Kallen was speechless, but terrified to watch her being electrocuted in such horrible pain.
They stop electrocuting her as Nunnally starts to speak up by following the script.
Nunnally: I-I am Nunnally L-L-amperou-
Then she electrocuted again.
Annika: Your Real name.
Nunnally: N-N-Nunnally vi Britanna, f-f-former princess of B-Britannian Imperial family. This message comes f-f-from kidnappers. Y-You bring Lelouch Lamperouge t-t-to this location.
The screen changed to show a map location of Shinjuku ghetto and showed a pinpoint to the building. The screen changes back to Nunnally as she continues to speak.
Nunnally: Y-You must come to that location or both N-Nunnally a-a-and h-her maid will b-both d-d-d-die...
After she read the script, she was being electrocuted and they stopped. Nunnally coughs out the blood from her mouth and she weakly raises her head up to the camera.
Nunnally: L-Lelouch... H-Help me...
That was her last word before she passed out and the video has ended.
Lelouch was tear up as he collapsed on the floor seeing his sister being tortured. Milly was also crying and then she turned into anger as she clenched her fists and gritted her teeth for those responsible for hurting her.
Milly: I'm going to kill them for hurting Nunnally!
Daniel: We know. Right now, we're going to the location in Shinjuku ghetto. Since it seemed abandoned for quite some time since we rescued the people back then.
Kallen: I know every corner of the ghetto though we're not sure what they are waiting for us.
Aiwi: It could be a trap. Shall we send our special forces to rescue?
Daniel: No. This time, we will go there by ourselves. But to make sure they're not alone, we'll have a small team outside to observe and see anything suspicious. That's where you came, James Howarklodt.
James: Yes sir. I'll be in a sniper position in case they have a surprise while you guys do not notice.
Milly: In that case, we must go there now! Nunnally and Sayoko are at stake.
Kallen: If she wants to go there and rescue them, then count me in.
Aiwi: If they were just the thugs, we could easily beat them.
Daniel: Never underestimate them, Aiwi. Lelouch, are you ready to save your sister and your maid?
Lelouch calmed down as he stood up.
Lelouch: Yes. Let's save them.
He said with determination.
...
Shinjuku Ghetto
Lelouch, Patriot Knight, Kallen, Jiyu, and Justitia were teleported to the ghetto where it all began. The ghetto was abandoned and there are no people living here. They walked through the path until they reached the building where it was located. Without hesitation, they entered the building. They look around inside the building to find nothing, but empty darkness. They were just wandering inside the building when suddenly a voice spoke out of nowhere.
???: I see you brought new friends, Lelouch.
Kallen: What the- Is that?
Lelouch: Yeah... Where are they!
Jiyu: Show yourself unless you're a coward.
???: RIght I am.
They turned around to see Annika on the top stood there with sadistic smugness on her face.
Patriot Knight: There you are! You must be responsible for kidnapping Nunnally and her maid Sayoko.
Annika: Correct! One point for ULA leader. Although I must admit I am glad to meet you.
Justitia: Where are they! I swear, if they're dead I-
Annika: Whoa! Take it easy, girl. We didn't kill them... yet.
Jiyu: We? Are you saying you have others?
Kallen: It doesn't matter. We come here for them and then we kick your ass.
Annika laughed.
Annika: I like to see you try. Byt the way, it is so rude to introduce myself. I am Annika Sadistischerdiener. A pleasure to meet you all.
Lelouch: An Europian...
He muttered, clenching his fist.
Patriot Knight: What business are you in?
Annika: What business am I in? Oh, you have mistaken. I have not aligned with a weak so-called democratic nation. No, I belong to the people that have known everything in this world for several years.
Jiyu: I have a bad feeling about this. Saying she's with the people known to this world for several years makes it sound like they are no good.
Lelouch: Whatever! I want them back now!
Patriot Knight: If not, we're going to take them from you if you show hostility.
Annika: Oh? Okay.
She said as she grabbed something at the back and then she held Sayoko's neck. She was stripped naked and she has bruises all over it.
Lelouch: Oh no... Sayoko!
Justitia: Sayoko!
Annika: You can take this bitch back. We're done playing with her anyway.
She threw Sayoko to the ground as Kallen and Lelouch went to help her.
Lelouch: Sayoko, Sayoko, please answer me.
He said, worry about her. He can hear a bit of breathing from her. Her body was so weak that she couldn't speak to him.
Lelouch: What did you do to her!
Annika chuckled.
Annika: We're just playing... the same thing as your sister. Wouldn't you agree, Zero?
Lelouch shockingly gasped that she knew his identity.
Lelouch: You knew...
Annika: Yeah! But anyways, you want Nunnally? Then come and find her before we make her suffer more. Speaking of which, my boys will come and play with you. Do me a favor, try to survive, we just want to play with you.
SHe said as she turned around and walked away. Then, a large number of lycans appeared everywhere, surrounding them. Everyone is armed and ready to fight against those monsters.
Jiyu: Shit! It is a trap!
Justitia: Those monsters again... Do you think...?
Patriot Knight: Yeah. The people she refers to have to be responsible for what happened to Kusakabe, Katase, and other JLF officers in Narita.
Kallen: This is insane! How were they able to make monsters?
Patriot Knight: I don't know. But I have a resident evil vibe here.
Lelouch: What?
Justitia: What?
Jiyu: Eh?
Kallen: What?
Patriot Knight: Nothing. But we must kill them. Kallen, Lelouch, take Sayoko outside. Get her out of here.
Lelouch: R-Right. Come on.
He said. Lelouch and Kallen carried Sayoko outside the building. Patriot Knight and his others ready their weapons as one of lycans roared and they jumped off and went straight to them. Patriot Knight drew his energy katana and sliced off a few lycans to approach him. Justitia fired her dueling MR20-Alexanders at few lycans. Jiyu slashes every lycan trying to approach her. They continue fighting the monsters that popped out on all sides.
...
Lelouch and Kallen put Sayoko down on the ground. Lelouch went to her as he placed his hands on Sayoko's cheeks.
Lelouch: Sayoko, Sayoko, please wake up. Please...
He said starting a verge of tears. Then she coughs out as she slowly opens her eyes to see Lelouch here with her.
Sayoko: M-M-Master L-Lelouch...
Lelouch: Sayoko, you okay.
Sayoko: Nothing better...
She starts to move only to feel pain after being beaten.
Lelouch: Don't move. I brought help. It's gonna be alright.
Then she grabbed his collar as she said to him.
Sayoko: Lelouch! P-Please, save your s-sister. She's still with them.
Lelouch: Then where is she?
Sayoko: I... I don't know. They knock me out after they give us so long. S-She's suffering so much I can't...
She said, starting to cry. He put his hand on her hand.
Lelouch: I promise we will save her. I will save Nunnally.
He said to assure her he will save Nunnally. Sayoko showed him a weak smile. Then, a small group of ULA medics and soldiers arrived.
ULA medic: How bad is she?
Kallen: Really bad. Whatever they did to her, she was brutally beaten.
ULA medic: Alright. We'll take it from here.
The ULA medics put Sayoko on a spinal board and they carried her away until they teleported to a ULA location. Afterward, Lelouch and Kallen went inside the building to see Patriot Knight and his companions have killed every lycan judging on the number of dead lycans on the floor.
Patriot Knight: These guys are really a pain in my ass. Anyway, we must find them so we can find Nunnally.
Kallen: Then we're coming with you.
Jiyu: Not when you two have pistols. Here.
She gives Heckler SMG to Lelouch and M4A1 assault rifle to Kallen.
Jiyu: These should kill those things.
Kallen: Hell yeah! This weapon is very effective.
Lelouch: Wait! How come she has an assault rifle while I have this!
Jiyu: Get used to your gun, "your highness..."
Lelouch: Hey!
Justitia: Enough jokes. Let's save Nunnally.
Everyone nodded as they went up the stairs to the upper level. They go through the hallway when they encounter more lycan armed with melee weapons such as hatchets, machetes, and katanas.
Patriot Knight: Open fire!
He shouted. He drew an assault shotgun as they opened fire on the creatures. The lycans keep going forward until they take too much hit and they drop to the floor dead. They continue to pursue to save Nunnally from someone like Annika who is held captive. They continue to encounter more lycans appear in each room as they shoot them dead. Lelouch spotted two lycans coming out from the room so he fired at them and the lycans were shot dead. Jiyu slices her katana on the lycans as they are cut in half. Patriot Knight keeps shooting his assault shotgun on lycans when they get up close. Then he drew out his energy katana and instantly killed the lycans that approached him. Kallen fires an under barrel grenade as the explosion kills a small number of lycans.
Kallen: Hahaha! I love this American weapon.
Jiyu went beside her after she killed a lycan with her katana.
Jiyu: Um, it was also issued to the NAU.
Kallen: Then I love this NAU weapon.
Jiyu sighed as she shook her head and proceeded to kill monsters. Justitia uses an energy sword to kill a number of lycans. Afterward, they keep running through every floor level. Through each floor level they go to the room where the Witch Sisters tortured Nunnally and Sayoko here.
Patriot Knight: I'm guessing this is where Nunnally and Sayoko were tortured here.
Kallen: My god...
She said, horrified by what they did to Nunnally and Sayoko here. Lelouch found a video tape on the table.
Lelouch: What's this? A video tape?
He played it as he watched on the small tv screen to see the Witch Sisters are giving Nunnally so much tortured in her life. The others go up to him to see what he's watching. They saw in horror of what they did to Nunnally and Sayoko in such horrible way of torture. Then, they became shocked when they made Sayoko forcefully whip Nunnally on the back and they can tell her face she was tearing up in regret of hurting her. They are angry towards two women torturing them and they finish watching the video.
Lelouch: Those bastards!
He pounded on the table in anger.
Lelouch: I swear... I'm going to kill them slowly, painless, death. I'll make them suffer like they did to Nunnally and Sayoko. I'm going to kill them!
He said, gritted his teeth in anger. Kallen placed her hand on his shoulder and got his attention.
Kallen: We will make them pay. Right now, we have to save her.
Justitia: So do I. They hurt my sister, they're gonna pay.
She said, clenching her fist. They took the video taps on top of the table and went out of the room. They encounter more lycans equipped with melee weapons and they kill those monsters. Then, they encounter something different than the lycans. They encountered three varcolacs came out from both rooms.

Jiyu: Shit! There's more of them!
Kallen: Wait! They're the same creatures of what happened to Kusakabe!
They remembered back in Lake Kawaguchi when Kusakabe injected himself to believe to have some sort of superpower, but it turned himself into a monster and killed his own comrades. The varcolacs sneered at them as they slowly approached them.
Patriot Knight: Whoever they work for in the organization has made the worst thing in the world. Let's take them down.
He said. A varcolacs roared as they rushed towards them in speed. Lelouch and Kallen fired their weapons on one of varcolacs and they able to take it down. Jiyu and Justitia go in as varcolac jumps on them, but both girls slide down and then slice its limbs and give a final blow, killing a monster. Finally, Patriot Knight shoots an assault shotgun on a varcolac when it comes close, then he draws out energy katana and stabs on the head, killing it. They continued moving forward until they reached the larger size room. But then, they heard satisfaction chuckles echoed in the room.
Annika: So you made it here alive.
Anneliese: Very entertaining, indeed. We love to see you guys killing our monsters.
Jiyu: You've been watching us, huh? That's good for crazy psychopaths like you!
Justitia: Where is she!
Anneliese: Who?
Lelouch: My sister, Nunnally! Where is she now!
Anneliese: Oh? You want to see her?
She gave a nod to her sister as she turned around and left, then she returned holding Nunnally's hair. Everyone was horrified to see Nunnally in such bad conditions with blood and bruises because of torture they did to her.
Anneliese: Then here she is.
Lelouch: Nunnally!
Patriot Knight: Release her now!
Anneliese: I'm afraid not. You see, we are getting along. We play together, right Nunnally?
She said as Annika roughly dropped her on the floor and placed a foot on her hard so hard it hurts her.
Annika: I think she likes it.
Kallen: You psychopaths! What do you gain from this by hurting her!
Anneliese: Oh you really don't know? Lelouch and Nunnally were royal members of the Imperial Britannia Family of the Holy Britannian Empire!
She said, But they notice their expressions seeing they've already known their secret identities.
Anneliese: Hmm... Judging by your expressions, you already know them, don't you?
Kallen: Ah, yeah! We know them, and I don't care. I know Lelouch's reason they remain hidden from their own empire after what they did to them.
Annika: Ohh... They know, sis.
Anneliese: It doesn't matter. We continue playing with her forever and ever... UNTIL SHE IS FULL OF SUFFER AND WE WILL ENJOY CARVING HER OUT HER ENTIRE BODY, LIMBS BY LIMBS, WE WILL TASTE THIS FEMALE BLOOD AS OUR MEAL!!!
She insanely shouted and they both laughed like maniacs. They were disgusted by their words and they were really going to kill them. They stopped laughing as they said.
Anneliese: But until now, it's time to let go for today. So take this weak pathetic blindness crippled child with you. We're done anyway.
She grabs her hair and throws her to the stairs as she rolls down the stairs so roughly and hits the ground.
Lelouch & Justitia: Nunnally!
They rushed toward her. They both turn Nunnally around at them as she is slowly breathing in air exhausted from being tortured by the Witch Sisters. Milly removed her helmet, her eyes are tearing up seeing she is hurt so much. Lelouch is also crying as well for not being with her, to protect her from anyone who tries to harm her.
Lelouch: Nunnally. Please, say something!
Milly: Nunnally, please wake up! Don't leave us.
Her tears flowing on the cheek seeing Nunnally wasn't responded to due to her injuries.
Milly: Please...
Then the sisters were laughing as they went to two stairs on both sides climbing down. Patriot Knight, Kallen, and Jiyu focused their weapons on them as they went down the stairs.
Anneliese: Oh... We didn't expect that the student council president would be part of the ULA. Oh my, this is a surprising event.
Annika: But why should you worry about her? You're Britannian, right? And in Britannia, only the strong survive and live in this harsh world and the weak perish. You should be happy about it.
Lelouch: Happy? Happy! What happiness when the people who are lower-class citizens are being treated badly by high-class citizens!
Jiyu: What about the people from other countries being subjugated by the Holy Britannian Empire. The people considered Numbers were treated harshly and they struggled to survive. You think you'll bring happiness and joy to satisfy your ambitions by treating them like dirt!
Kallen: The Japanese have suffered enough under the rule of Britannia oppression! We will not some punks like you treated us like inferiors we are!
Annika: Well, it happens around the world so there's nothing you can do, not even the ULA tried to achieve it.
Patriot Knight: It will work. Don't test me.
He said, gripping his energy sword trying to hold his anger. Milly was silent for a moment as her tears flowed down her cheek until they made a wrong word to say.
Annika: You know, such pure innocence and kindness like her...
She pointed at Nunnally lying beside them.
Annika: Deserve to be left alone and being eaten by the wolves. Besides, it's better for her to be dead after we play roughly together.
She said, laugh it more. They reached the bottom floor and that's when she stood up and just said to them.
Milly: She's not dead...
She muttered.
Anneliese: Hm?
Milly: I said...
She immediately drew out her energy sword as she turned her head at them with angry glares with tears flowing down her cheek. Her gritted teeth makes her so angry for hurting Nunnally so much. So she shouted.
Milly: SHE'S NOT DEAD!
She sprints towards Annika to strike her, but her attack is blocked by Annika's spear.
Annika: So the student girl wants to fight? I like it!
She pushes her away as the Witch sisters ready their weapons out and start the battle. Patriot Knight and the others join her side. Patriot Knight said to Lelouch and Kallen.
Patriot Knight: Lelouch, Kallen, take Nunnally and get out of here!
Kallen: But- We want to help too!
Milly: Just go! Nunnally is priority one to be saved.
Lelouch: Milly...
Milly: GO!
She shouted. Lelouch and Kallen take Nunnally and go out of the building. The Witch Sisters keep their weapons ready as well as Patriot Knight and his companions as they are going to fight.
Anneliese: By the way, I haven't introduced myself. I am Anneliese Sadistischerdiener. You can say we're sisters.
Jiyu: Hmph. Good for you.
Milly: I'm gonna kill both of you for what you did to Nunnally and Sayoko!
She said angrily and rushed in first as she swung her energy sword, but Annika dodge it quickly avoiding getting hit. Anneliese went towards them using double Chokutō swords and she struck them. Both Patriot Knight and Jiyu dodge the attack from both sides and go separate ways to outflank her. Anneliese turns her eyes at Jiyu as she quickly turns and swings at her. Jiyu noticed the attack so she moved her head down, almost getting sliced and swung her katana at her. Patriot Knight switches it to an assault shotgun to aim at her, but Anneliese kicks his weapon and attacks him. Jiyu throws shuriken at Anneliese, then she notices her attack so she backs away and it almost hits Patriot Knight. Luckily, he was able to avoid it.
Jiyu: Sorry!
She apologized. Then she returns to fight Anneliese as she swings her swords at her.
Milly fired dueling MR20-Alexander guns at Annika as she ran away to dodge the bullets then she went straight to her. Milly swung an energy sword at her, but Annika slid down to avoid getting hit and then she swung her spear at her from the behind. When Milly blocked her attack with her energy sword, she was shocked when Annika's spear didn't cut through and they struggled with each other with their weapons clashing together. They back away from each other.
Milly: How?
Annika: Titanium. Impressive, isn't it?
Milly ignores her and continues to fight. They both clash with each other to fight to the death.
Anneliese keeps fighting both Patriot Knight and Jiyu in battle. Seeing them trying to outflank her, she decided to reveal her true power. Her eye pupils reveal green dark geass and conjunctiva turn colored black. Her both hands glows dark blue-green and smash on the floor causing a shockwave to push them away from her both sides.
Patriot Knight and Jiyu hit on the floor and they got up feeling something had pushed them away from Anneliese and found a source coming from her. She shows them a smirk seeing their reaction to her power.
Jiyu: What the hell?
Anneliese: Do you like it? We have... a special ability that we've been keeping for so long.
Patriot Knight sees her eye pupils different from original eyes and notices she has double geass symbols, but it's colored dark green.
Patriot Knight: Geass... You have Geass!
Anneliese: So you know Geass too? Now that's so wonderful for everyone to know about supernatural powers. But then again, we're going to kill you. But we're gonna stop this day and end this.
She said as she jumped far away from them. She called her sister.
Anneliese: Annika!
Annika hears her call so she uses her dark power fist to punch her away and goes to her. Patriot Knight and his elite guards come together to face them and the sisters just say to them.
Anneliese: Thank you for entertaining, ULA. But our fun has ended today.
Annika: And we bid to say goodbye. Hahahahaha!!!
She laughed. Anneliese pulls out a detonate trigger and presses it as the bombs start to detonate. Everyone feels the shaking as they hear the explosion.
Annika: I guess it's time for us to go.
Anneliese: Yep! Oh, by the way, here's something I like you to know... Beware the Black Sun.
She said. The Witch Sisters throw flashbangs to the ground to blind them and when they regain their eyesights they see them disappear. The building continues breaking apart as explosions destroy each floor level and there is no way for them to escape.
Milly: Shit! We need to get out of here!
Jiyu: How?
Patriot Knight: Follow me. I have a plan.
...
Viceroy Palace
Calares was chilling in his room when he heard a small explosion which almost fell from his chair so he stood up and checked out the window to see the smoke in the air coming from Shinjuku ghetto.
Calares: What the hell is going on there?
...
Lelouch and Kallen are shocked that the building exploded and Patriot Knight and the others were in there.
Lelouch: Milly! Daniel!
He shouted their names. Then suddenly, they saw Patriot Knight and others go through the window and fall to the ground. Luckily, Patriot Knight activates nanotechnology to make a jetpack on his back and hold both Milly and Jiyu on his arms to levitate down to the ground. They reached to the ground and they watched the building crumble down. They turned at Lelouch and Kallen as they said.
Kallen: You guys alright?
Lelouch: What happened there? Did you defeat them?
Jiyu: We are. But they escaped.
She said. They don't want to tell them about the sisters having dark powers. Milly goes to Nunnally as she starts to feel panicked about her condition.
Milly: Nunnally, sweetie. Please, wake up. Please...
She started to cry and place her head on her whimpering of her being tortured too much. Then they heard a voice.
Nunnally: M-M-Milly?
They gasped to hear Nunnally speak to them, but in a weak state.
Lelouch: Nunnally! Are you alright?
Nunnally: I... I...
Lelouch: Nunnally, I am so sorry for not being with you. I should've know what is going to happen I-
Nunnally stopped him as she said.
Nunnally: D-D-Don't say t-that...
She coughed two times.
Nunnally: It's not your fault... Big Brother... I-I know...
Milly: Shh... Don't talk. We get you to medical treatment.
She turned at him.
Milly: We need to get him to the medical center.
Patriot Knight nodded as he ordered the comms to teleport them to Sanctuary city, They teleported away, disappeared in the scene before Britannia police force came into the ghetto to investigate.

ULA Sanctuary City, Hospital
The doctors and nurses are taking Nunnally to the operation room. Daniel is still wearing a Patriot Knight suit and the others are accompanying her. He asked a doctor.
Daniel: What's her condition, doc?
ULA doctor: Her condition is worrisome. Judging the bruises and a bit of blood loss, she might be in critical condition, but she will be alright.
Lelouch and Milly held Nunnally both hands as they escorted her to the operation room then someone came along.
Euphemia: Nunnally!
She had heard of what was happening to Nunnally so she came to see her. She was horrified to see her sister was in very bad condition.
Euphemia: What happened to her!
Lelouch: She was being kidnapped by two psychopath women and they torture her.
She was more horrified that two kidnappers took Nunnally and torture so much to suffer her. They reach the end point where they take her to the operation room and a doctor stops them from getting in.
ULA doctor: I'm sorry. You all have to stay here while we do the procedure on a patient.
He said as he entered the room. Euphemia wants to go in to be with Nunnally, but her brother stops her and then they hug each other for comfort. Milly went up to Daniel and embraced him crying of what happened to Nunnally.
Milly: Daniel... Will she recover soon?
Daniel: Of course. She will recover. We just need to give hope for her.
He said, stroking her hair behind. She presses on his chest letting out tears worrying about Nunnally. Daniel, on the other hand, has something on his mind that Anneliese just said to her. He needs to find out what that means.
Daniel: Beware of the Black Sun. What does it mean?

Burgundy, Black Sun secret HQ
Albrecht was talking on the phone as he said to the Witch Sisters about their special assignment though it wasn't successful.
Albrecht: So you've failed to break Lelouch and were defeated by the ULA.
Anneliese (on phone): I'm sorry, mein reichsführer. But we could do it again, and kill them afterwards.
Albrecht: Nein. Nevermind about that anymore. Come back to Burgundy. I have a gift for you.
Anneliese (on phone): Aww... How sweet for you.
Albrecht: I meant for a new mechanized robot to withstand both knightmares and bellators! Now please come here right now.
Anneliese (on phone): Yes, mein reichsführer.
He ended the call and placed it on the floor. He calmed his mind down and then he asked a SS soldier beside him.
Albrecht: You! Can you bring him here please?
SS soldier: Yes, mein reichsführer!
He goes out of the room to get someone to him. He leaned back on the chair and closed his eyes remembering the past before this day of starting an invasion of this world.
Flashback
Antartica Base
Albrecht and the rest of the lords come to Antarctica from Burgundy after they made the entire Europe spark a WW1, they go up to Doctor Heisenberg on the machine attached to the portal gateway. He turned around and give him a Nazi salute.
Heisenberg: Heil Reichsführer!
Albrecht: Heil. Now tell me how's the portal coming up? Is it operational?
Heisenberg: Yes, mein Reichsführer. It is operational and ready to start up.
Albrecht: Good. Obergruppenherr Biohringer, has Kommando ready?
Biohringer: Yes, mein Reichsführer.
Cruger: Mein Reichsführer, may I ask? Why are you insisting on going back to our universe? We swore to never come back there after we were defeated.
Boucher: He's right. What's the reason to go back? We can rule the world by ourselves if we continue destabilizing the alternate world.
Albrecht: The reason is that we have concerns about taking something we cannot accomplish. Asia.
The Obergruppenherr except Biohringer look at each other faces of confusion.
Albrecht: While we take the west, it is impossible to take the entire Asian for ourselves. 85% of the people of Asia will use guerilla warfare and any strategies against us when occupied Asia and we never went there before. We will be vulnerable and everyone in this world may work together to take us out. So we need someone who knows alot about Asia and takes the entire Asia at the east while we take the west. Now.... Anyone want to ask more questions?
Anneliese & Annika: Nein!
Cruger: Nein.
Boucher: Pas de questions. (No questions).
Albrecht: Very well then... Turn on the machine.
He said to Heisenberg as he gave a nod and turned on a portal. Albrecht, Biohringer, and four kommandos entered the portal.
Japan, Parallos Universe
Aug. 6, 1945, after US dropped atomic bomb on Hiroshima
In the blossom forest, a portal appeared as Albrecht, Biohringer, and four kommandos stepped out, returning to their universe. Albrecht breathes in to smell fresh air.
Albrecht: Fresh air... Do you feel it?
Biohringer: Yes. It's the smell of our universe. I can't believe we came back here. We have no intention to return here.
Albrecht: We don't need to. Now come on, let's go find someone to join our cause.
Timeskip
Albrecht and Biohringer have a meeting with an old middle-aged IJA general named Akimitsu Sakurai at his home. Along with someone is his son, Kenshin Sakurai, a young man joining the Imperial Japanese Army to become an officer. He is a pride nationalistic person seeing non-Japanese in Asia consider barbarians and needs to be eliminated to expand territories for the empire. He was only in Japan, never taking action to the outside world and hoping that they'll pick him to take the fight against barbarians. Unfortunately, his wish didn't come true. He was too eager to fight, but he was disappointed that he was unable to be sent to the battlefield for the first time of his life. He became distrustful of Emperor Hirohito when the empire started to fall apart because the Allies had taken islands that belonged to Japanese Empire. After Albrecht explains everything to him, he just says to them.
Akimitsu: Let me guess, you want me to lead the remaining Imperial military group to go to an alternate world so together we will take over there as our own?
Albrecht: Yes, and that is why you'll take entire Asia to the east while we take to the west. I was hoping you'll join me and my cause for the new era of our new empires. Just come with us and we begin our destiny.
Akimitsu was silent for a moment and then he made his decision.
Akimitsu: I'm sorry. But I'm afraid I have to refuse your offer.
Biohringer: What! You dare-
Albrecht raises his hand at him to stop and Biohringer complies with him.
Albrecht: Why, general?
Akimitsu: Because I can't leave Japan, my home, to another universe just to create new empires where we have failed. The first bomb the American dropped in Hiroshima made me realize that there's no way we can accomplish it and I cannot leave my home. My loyalty lies to the emperor and his imperial family and I won't ever leave when our home is getting destroyed and our people will be in despair.
Kenshin: Our people, our empire, has already been in despair! That emperor is nothing but a weak and foolish leader leading us to humiliation!
Akimitsu: Son! Watch your mouth!
Kenshin: NO! I have enough of this! I have never gone to battle in my entire life! The leaders of the Imperial military never pick me to send to battle.
Akimitsu: It's because you are not ready.
Kenshin: What! I've been enrolled in the military, reaching to the ranks, and I am preparing to fight for the empire. But the emperor and prime minister have failed to create a greater co-prosperity sphere. I say we go to another universe, take Japan, and take everything in entire Asia to rule a new Japanese empire! I'm starting to think you are weak and pathetic old-
Then his face was slapped by his father in anger as he said to his son.
Akimitsu: HOW DARE YOU SPEAK TO THE EMPEROR! YOU SHOULD BE SHAME FOR YOURSELF! SAYING LIKE THAT WILL GET YOU TROUBLE! FOR YOUNG MAN LIKE YOU BEING OFFICER SHOULD ALWAYS RESPECT TO THE EM-
Then suddenly, he felt something on his stomach as he coughed up in blood. He looks down to see his son's blade stabs to his stomach. He looked up at him to the face seeing he is deadly serious and his son said to him.
Kenshin: You should've taken his offer, father. I'll rule my empire in another universe and I will make sure the name of the Ryukyu clan will be preserved in honor. Good bye...
He said, pulling out his katana blade and his father fell on the floor dead. Biohringer was shocked to see him killing his own father in front of him. Albrecht, on the other hand, smiled to see someone who was willing to do anything to accomplish his ambition. He stood up from his chair and approached him.
Albrecht: You did the right thing. Your father didn't make the right decision to take down my offer to give the Japanese a second chance for Japanese. Tell me, what's your name?
Kenshin: Kenshin. Warrant Officer Kenshin Sakurai. I am a descendant of the members of the Ryukyu clan before becoming a tributary state of Japanese Empire. I wish to join you only to make a new empire for myself.
Albrecht: Very nationalistic young man. I'm happy for someone like you worthy to be an emperor. Will you join us to start a new destiny?
Kenshin: Yes! Anything for building my empire.
Albrecht: Good. Now, go there and convince your friends to come with us to another universe. A new journey for the new emperor is waiting for you beyond.
Kenshin: Understood!
Timeskip
Kenshin brought 30 imperial officers, 102 IJA personnel, 23 IJAAS personnel, and 27 IJN personnel to blossom the forest. Albrecht opens the portal and everyone goes in.
...
Allos Universe, Antarctica Base
Albrecht and Biohringer returned with Imperial Japanese remnants to this alternate world. Albrecht told him everything in this universe so Kenshin made a strong speech to his people.
Kenshin: Everyone, today we will increase our number by recruiting the Japanese people of this universe. I made a promise when we leave our home, our universe, someday I will bring back glory to our new empire from our humiliation that our enemy brought us. But not anymore, today I'll be an emperor and I promise to you all, we will take every land of Asia from barbarian nations and kill everyone that stands in our way. I'm asking you this, will you acknowledge me as your new emperor to lead to glory once more?
An imperial officer stepped in and said to his new leader.
Imperial officer: We acknowledge you as our new emperor. We fight with you until the day we die!
All Imperial personnel: WE FIGHT FOR YOU, EMPEROR KENSHIN SAKURAI!!!
Kenshin: Yes! I promise, we will have Japan as our rule and take everything from the barbarians. But first, we must destabilize this earth to weaken them until they become vulnerable. The Eternality of the Ryukyu Empire will rule supreme and your emperor is immortal! Tenno Heika Banzai!
All Imperial personnel: Banzai! Banzai! Banzai! Banzai! Banzai!
They shouted in pride towards their new emperor. Albrecht and the Obergruppenherrs watched them, seeing it as intriguing to have their ally take the east. Albrecht smiled at Kenshin rally and his loyal men promised them to have glory when the time came.
Flashback Ended
Albrecht opened his eyes to see the door opened and a middle-aged man with a small moustache wearing an imperial Japanese emperor uniform with the cape hanging on him. It was none other than Kenshin Sakurai himself.

He approached him as he said.
Kenshin: Reichsführer Albrecht, I hope you have a reason to bring me here after I made a deal with Atsushi Sawasaki to promise to be my prime minister once we take Japan from those damn Britannian.
Albrecht: I want to ask you first, Your Majesty. How's the recruiting Japanese from this universe?
Kenshin: Perfect! I have many Japanese who were in the Anti-Britannian resistance group and splinter-group JLF who didn't join the others who are with the so-called ULA.
Albrecht: Good to hear. Now, sorry for not telling you while we are in this place, but I'm gonna to show you something shocking.
He shows him on the holographic screen of information that they able to stole it from UNSA Australia base for infiltration mission about their universe which is now becoming a futuristic utopia and what happened after WW2. After this, Emperor Kenshin became so worried, but he became very passionate and serious that he still accomplished his goal and he'll figure out to defeat them when that comes. Albrecht said to him.
Albrecht: I hope it didn't trouble you.
Kenshin: No. It's alright. But still, how could my old homeland side with them! Those disgraceful cowards!
He pounded his fist on the table in a loud sound in the room. He started to calm down from his anger.
Kenshin: Whatever. I'm still getting Japan, and no one, not even the UNSA and ULA, including the Black Knights will stop me from completing my goal. Tell me, is the preparation ready for starting the invasion?
Albrecht nodded.
Albrecht: We are prepared. But we must wait a little longer.
Kenshin: But we've been waiting long enough! My men are starving of lust towards barbarian women. I still remember some of them were part of the Nanking massacre. But I really don't care anyway, I won't deny it.
Albrecht: Still, we don't know when they will make their next move. I say we wait until they have one.
Kenshin: Oh? And what's that?
Albrecht leaned closer to him with an evil smile.
Albrecht: Reveal ourselves to this world.
This is a flag of Eternality of Ryukyu Empire
