Well, this is my first Geass fanfic posted here, so I hope you guys like it. D:
This is what happens when I speculate about the end of Geass and have my emo-music track playing.
Title: All He Ever Wanted
Genre: Drama/Angst
Pairing: Lelouch/Suzaku (friendship-ish, not really romance-esque)
Hope you enjoy.
All He Ever Wanted
At last…At last…
Lelouch vi Britannia sat on his bloodstained throne, the scepter of the Emperor of Britannia in his hand. At last, he had done it all; thrown down the Britannian Empire, avenged his mother’s death, killed the father he despised…
At last, the Black Prince had achieved all that he had ever wanted.
And now, has he sat upon the throne that he forcefully took from his father, no one was there to share in his triumph.
All was quiet in the dark hall, as he knew the results of his success.
Japan had been liberated—but at great cost. War had torn the country apart once again. The Black Knights were all but destroyed; the small force that had liberated their home country could not stand up to a full scale international war. Even now, the EU and Chinese Federation still marched on the lands that once belonged to Britannia, determined to conquer the shattered remnants of the fallen Empire.
Everything had been given for this one moment. Kallen was dead. Rolo was missing. C.C. had disappeared, never to return. And he did not want to know the fates of his old friends in the Ashford Student council—innocent lives that had to be spilled for this accomplishment.
And Nunnally…Nunnally! That one innocent life he had sworn to protect, the reason he began his crusade and started all of this—
Her pure heart was now lost, destroyed in the chaos of war.
She was not dead; no, she could neverdie! But…she would never be the same again. When her eyes were finally opened and she saw the pain, the horror, and the cruelty of this world around her, when she realized what it was that her brother had done in her name—she couldn’t handle it.
Nunnally vi Britannia would never recognize another human again, lost in her own perfect world of her mind’s own creation.
A small, sad smile came to Lelouch’s face. Perhaps, it was all for the best. He wanted only for Nunnally’s happiness. Though she would never recognize her brother again, in this world her mind made for her, to shield her from the pain, she was happy. She found an escape, and was as happy as she ever could be.
And that’s all he ever wanted.
That was the last time he saw Suzaku as well. Suzaku, the first friend he ever had, the one life that seemed constantly tied to his own—the only person beside himself that he had ever been fully honest with. Suzaku knew of his motives, his wishes…perhaps better than he knew them himself.
“Is this what you wanted?” he had yelled at him, after Nunnally’s condition had been revealed. “Your lies and your destruction have even harmed Nunnally! Are you going to continue with this, Lelouch? To harm and curse everyone with yourself until you achieve your end? To die alone, with no one around you, from a faceless assassin’s bullet? Is that what you want, Lelouch?”
He had only turned away, back towards his path as Zero the Destroyer, with the words, “If that is what I am destined for.”
For Nunnally, he had to continue. There was no other option. It had always been for her, or at least, it began for her. And now that she was out of his reach forever...
Here, in this place he had won, Lelouch felt the muzzle of a gun pressed against his temple. At last…
The faceless assassin had come.
Turning for a moment, his left eye glowing red with the curse of Geass, Lelouch found himself staring down at the mask of Zero, the mask he had discarded when he revealed to his enemies that it was indeed Lelouch vi Britannia who had come to judge them.
Ever since the murder of Clovis, no, perhaps even earlier—back to the day of his mother’s murder—he had been ready for this. When he donned the mask of Zero, he knew this was his fate. No matter the result, there was one thing he must do—one thing he was born to do—destroy Britannia.
Everything, not just Britannia was destroyed. The Black Prince had walked the path of carnage; had obliterated everything in his path to overturning Britannia. His hands, so stained with blood, could never re-build what he worked so hard to tear down.
And so...At last...
“Even if you did not understand, you always knew exactly what I was wishing for,” Lelouch spoke, to the man behind the mask.
“Of course,” With one hand, the assassin reached up, and removed the mask that Lelouch had worn for so long. “After all,” Suzaku told him quietly, “We are friends, aren’t we?”
And, for what seemed the first time in years, Lelouch smiled.
Then the sound of a gunshot filled the room.
This is what happens when I speculate about the end of Geass and have my emo-music track playing.

No More Sorrow, huh? Is it strange that the song reminds me oddly of C.C.?(no subject)
Probably because of this amazing AMV:

I'd like to think that Rolo is alive somewhere, going through an emo phase after his big brother rejected him, or something. D:
(no subject)
This is also one of the many variations of possible endings Geass could have that has played out in my head. To be honest, I would be satisfied with this.
Very nicely done.

This is a end I'll like if the end of code geass would be like that, really.
However, I'm a little sad for Lelouch, but... This is very well writen.
You must write more code geass fanfiction =)
