Part 2

Suzaku : (panting) Nayuki!! Wait!!
Nayuki : (stopped)
Suzaku : Haa....haa.... What’s with you??
Nayuki : Colo-Knight is right.....
Suzaku : What do you mean??
Nayuki : If the princess is strong, then the family members will be strong. Once they’re strong, it will be hard to get her back.
Suzaku : So...??
Nayuki : Mirai.... Mirai!!! Where is she??
Suzaku : Mirai??
Nayuki : Mirai is one of the vampires maiden! If her followers got her, it’ll be hard to bring her back to our side!!
Suzaku : ..... Then, let’s go now.
Nayuki : eh?
Suzaku : Let’s go to Lelouch’s mansion first. We’ll find some information there.
Nayuki : (silent)


Suzaku grabbed Nayuki’s hands and ran to Lelouch’s mansion.

LAMPEROUGE MANSION


Suzaku : Lelouch??! Are you in here?? Lelouch!!
Nayuki : Looks like it’s empty....

Suzaku : Arisu-san!
Arisu : Sakurai-san!! Kururugi-san!! Why are you here??
Suzaku : We want to meet Lelouch. Is he home?
Arisu : (looks at Haruna) He’s here, but his mind is not here....
Nayuki : what do you mean? Dont tell me Mirai erased his memories again?
Haruna : Well, about the erasing memories is correct........
Nayuki : Whaa??!!
Haruna : But it wasn’t Mirai-sama! It was the intruders. The Alices!!
Nayuki : Alices???
Marianne : Hello, youngsters.
Nayuki : !!
Suzaku : !!!
Alice : Marianne-san!
Marianne : Are you the allies of Mirai?
Nayuki : Of course, who are you??
Marianne : I’m Marianne. Lylia’s mother’s sister.
Nayuki : That’s a long relationship.
Marianne : (laughs)
Lilith : Ah! Mirai’s bestfriend!
Nayuki : You know me?
Lilith : Of course!
Marianne : What’s your name, dear?
Nayuki : Sakurai Nayuki
Marianne : Sakurai?
Nayuki : ...yes....
Marianne : I see~
Nayuki : Ano!! May I know what happened here? And about Alices?
Marianne : Sure, come inside. Arisu, please tell her everything that happened that night.
Arisu : Hai!
Marianne : Haruna, please prepare tea for us.
Haruna : Hai!


IN THE LIVING ROOM


Nayuki : Mirai was kidnapped???!!! (shocked)
Arisu : Hai...... (depressed)
Nayuki : As I thought.......
Suzaku : So, Colo-Knight knows what happened....?
Nayuki : I think so....
Suzaku : You got the first message, I got the second message.
Nayuki : Eh?
Suzaku : he’s trying to say that “if you want any help, you can come and tell us”
Nayuki : (smiles) Sou da ne.
Suzaku : [She smiled]
Marianne : So, now. We---------- (stopped)


Lelouch : Suzaku?
Suzaku : Lelouch!!! (stood) Are you okay?
Lelouch : yeah, I’m fine. Why are you here? Aren’t you at Britannia?
Suzaku : [that’s right.... his memories were erased...] Well, I’ve come to visit here for a while.
Lelouch : I see. I’m missing Nunally, but I don’t know how to go back to Britannia....
Lilith : Dont worry, I’ll bring you back to Britannia.
Lelouch : Arigatou.... umm...
Lilith : I’m Lilith.
Lelouch : Arigatou, Lilith-san.
Nayuki : lelouch!
Lelouch : Do you know me?
Nayuki : (smiles) No, I heard about you a lot from Suzaku.
Lelouch : (turns to Suzaku) You know her?
Suzaku : Yeah.
Lelouch : Ah! Dont tell me you’re going out with her??


Both Suzaku and Nayuki blushed and shouted Lelouch in sync.


Suzaku & Nayuki : WE ARE NOT!!!!!!! (red cheeks)
Lelouch : Hai...hai..... ( a little terrified)
Marianne : Hohohoho~ Such energetic youngsters.
Lilith : (pushes Lelouch) Hai, hai! Let’s pack you things and return to Britannia.
Lelouch : (glance at Suzaku) See you there, Suzaku (smile)
Suzaku : (smile) Of course.
Nayuki : Are you sure to send his back to Britannia, Marianne-san?
Marianne : Saa desu ne.
Nayuki : Dont you think if he would meet Mirai for the second time, his memories would come back...?
Marianne : That’s the main problem...
Nayuki : ?
Marianne : If that girl is still Mirai. What if she’s not?
Nayuki : (looks down)
Marianne : [This girl is sharp. She easily understands indications]
Suzaku : But do you know where is Mirai right now?
Marianne : Maybe.
Arisu : Let’s head there, then!!
Suzaku : You’re following too?
Arisu : Hehe!
Haruna : Dont forget that we are Seishiki Guardians!
Suzaku : Sou ne.... (priceless face)
Nayuki : But before we head there, can I get someone to follow us too?
Marianne : Follow us? Why is that?
Nayuki : I think we need their help too (smile)
Marianne : If you say so (smile)
Nayuki : Arigatou gozaimassu!!
Marriane : [Those eyes which believes others, just like Uchiha Mikoto] If it’s like that, we’ll leave tomorrow morning.
All : Hai!!


AT NIGHT


Lelouch : (dazing on the balcony)
Suzaku : lelouch!
Lelouch : Ah, Suzaku! (smile)
Suzaku : have you packed your things?
Lelouch : Actually, I don’t even know my things. So Arisu-san and Haruna-san helped me.
Suzaku : I see. You’ve become a granpa, eh?
Lelouch : Haha! If I am one, then you should be one too, right?
Suzaku : I never age.
Lelouch : In your dreams. (laugh)
Suzaku : what are you dazing in the middle of the night??
Lelouch : I feel like I’m a empty shell, floating in the water, following the rhythm of the waves.....
Suzaku : ....why do feel like that?
Lelouch : I feel that someone is missing from my life. But.... I don’t know who....
Suzaku : ne, Lelouch......
Lelouch : ???
Suzaku : What if you follow us tomorrow? (stared deeply in the eyes)
Lelouch : Follow you guys.....?
Suzaku : Maybe you’ll find the answer of your unstable heart there (points to Lelouch’s heart)
Lelouch : (stares at Suzaku’s serious eyes) Br... Bring me with you!!


NEXT DAY


Marianne : What is the meaning of this, Kururugi-kun?
Suzaku : Sorry, but can he follow us??
Lelouch : Please, let me follow you. I wont be a burden.
Marianne : Fine, fine. (turns to Nayuki) How about your companions?
Nayuki : They’re here (smiles)


Honoyoshi : Sakurai-san!!
JunHao : Nihao, Sakurai-dono!
Vochello : Fuu~!! Colo-Knight-san asked me to come here~
Temari : (silent)
Nayuki : (disappointed) So you’re the Rain, Spring, Hail and Waterfall element.
Honoyoshi : Too bad you didn’t get the Snow element.
Nayuki : I wont play Choice Roulette anymore!!!
Suzaku : Why are you here too, Fukushima?
Shinichi : I wont let Hoshi go anywhere far from me.
Suzaku : I thought so.....
Marianne : Would you mind introduce yourself~? (smile)
Honoyoshi : Kiryuu Honoyoshi desu. Yoroshiku onegaishimassu.
Mariannne : My, my, what a polite youngster. I’m Marianne~

Marianne : It’s nice to meet you~
Temari : Sabaku Temari.
Marianne : What a lovely name~ And you? (turns to Shinichi)
Shinichi : (silent)
Honoyoshi : Ah! Gomen nasai! He’s Fukushima Shinichi.
Marianne : Sou desu ka. You must learn how to talk, young boy. (touches his chin)
Shinichi : (slapped Marianne’s hand) Dont touch me, woman!
Marianne : (shocked)
Nayuki : Gomen, gomen nasai, Marianne-san.
Marianne : It’s okay~ Dont worry
Honoyoshi : (smacked Shinichi’s head) Baka Ichiru!
Shinichi : Ittte!!
Arisu : Let’s go, Marianne-san~
Haruna : Here are the horses, Marianne-san.
Marianne : My, my. It’s not enough for everyone.
Nayuki : I’m fine walking.
Marianne : Are you sure, Nayuki-san? You’re a girl, you know.
Nayuki : I’m used to walk long distance. Lelouch might need the horse.
Marianne : Then, the others?
Honoyoshi : We are fine too. Dont worry.
Vochello : can we go now~? (sitting on his magic boost)
Honoyoshi : [on his magic boost.... no fair...]
Shinichi : Then, let’s not waste time.


They went on walking for a few minutes. Suddenly......


Vochello : Fou~!!!!! I cant stand anymore!!! Just where is the place!!!??
Marianne : It’s deep inside Miora Forest. And we haven’t arrive at the forest yet too...
Vochello : (stood) Miora Forest, right?


Vochello spread his hands above him. The Kagi that he hung on his neck grew flames, with a shape of an eagle’s wings, pure gold in colour. Flames appear around his magic boost and a big magic circle appears on the ground which covers everyone’s shadow. Vochello opened his eyes and chant.......


Vochello : Speed Enhance!!!


Everyone including Vochello disappeared from the current location. In split second, they were in a location surrounded with large trees. All were shocked.


Marianne : We are in the Miora Forest...??!!
Nayuki : Really?
Lilith : There’s no mistake. This location is half an hour travel from the Miora Forest’s entrance.
Vochello : (pout and sat on his magic boost) Mfuu!!
Honoyoshi : Here comes the impatience Vochello-kun.
Lelouch : (shocked to death)
Arisu : lelouch-sama!!! (shook his body)
Haruna : Ah!! His spirit is leaving his body!
Suzaku : Pfffft!!!
Marianne : What impressive powers! Who are you actually?
Honoyoshi : We are Harrier Brigade, the highest Brigade of Aves Family.
Marianne : Aves family......?
JunHao : It’s the first time that Riida is being proud of Harrier Brigade!! (happy)
Honoyoshi : No!!! It’s not!!!
Shinichi : Colo-Knight forced him to say that if he was asked who is he. He made him practise all night long right after the trial.
JunHao : Really?? (laughs~)
Honoyoshi : It’s not something that you should tell other, Ichiru!!!
Shinichi : Oh really? I find it very amusing indeed.
Honoyoshi : Ichiru no yaro......


The wind blows swiftly.


Marianne : Shh!


All became alert by the signal gave by Marianne. Suddenly, many people surrounded the group.


Arisu : we’ve got companies~ (on stance)
Haruna : It’s great to warm up first!
JunHao : Yoshi~!!! (jumps and took out her 3 sectional staff and swings it)
Marianne : be careful. It’s the Tricksters Alice.
Alice : Let me introduce myself. I’m----------


The edge of a long kwan dao pierced into the alice’s body and immediately the alice was turned to dust.


Temari : Fighters don’t introduce formally.
Honoyoshi : Is it really Sabaku Temari or.... Sabaku Fubuki possessed her....?
Alice : That girl..... killed her.....
Alice : How dare you! (chant)
Vochello : Urusai~ (knocked his magic staff on the alice’s head)


Alice turned to dust immediately.


Alice : Na..nani??
Alice : He killed her that easily....!
Vochello : My edge of my magic staff weighs 50 kilograms. (winks)
Alice : Im..impossible!! (attack)
Nayuki : Katon Gokakyuu no Jutsu


A ninjutsu was performed by Nayuki. Haruna attacked one of the Alices and it was turned to dust.


Marianne : I wonder why do they attacked us...
Nayuki : Marianne-san, are we near the place already??
Marianne : Let’s walk ahead.


Vochello : Fuu~! Isn’t this house like a mansion~
JunHao ; But it’s gloomy..... I dislike gloomy houses....
Marianne : We are here...
Nayuki : [Mirai..... I’m not going to let you return to your past self!!!!!! Never ever!!!!!!]
Suzaku : (slipped his hands into Nayuki’s palms)
Nayuki : (turns to Suzaku)
Suzaku : [She’s trembling....] (gripped her hand)
Nayuki : ....... (turns to the big mansion in front of her) [Mirai!!!]
Lelouch : ...... [my vision..... is blurrr.....]
