Red Lamp UNDER Sapphire Moonlight

Trouble Brews

Night Black hair fell down her back, fading into gradient shades of blue coloured Elizabeth curls sitting below her waist past her posterior. They bounced every time she moved giving her a whimsical air about her. Her long-sleeved body suit covered her from shoulder to ankle, black Lycra with blue embroidery hugging every curve lovingly, covering every inch of honey brown skin leaving only her neck and face exposed to the air. Her black boots covered her feet, with slits for knives and a single ankle gun. Belts, holsters and pockets were sewn in over top of the Lycra allowing for all manner of weaponry she could hold, clinging to her thighs, hips and arms.

A white ballroom mask sat on her button nose, covering her crystalline sapphire blue eyes, with ink black pupils that had a white crescent moon wrapped around each, housing a single white star that gleamed when it caught the light. Long black lashes blinked as she adjusted to the darkness of the outdoors. Her lips pouted in a soft pink smirk. She wore simple sapphire earrings on her ears and a blue choker made of silk. Her leather gloves covered manicured hands. On her head sat a circlet, set with sapphires and diamonds.

She made her way up a tree and settled on a thick branch that overlooked a certain bedroom in the Ashford School's club house. She pulled down her binoculars and peeked into the room. The young man with ear length black hair was standing with his back to the window. His arms went up above his head as he stretched for a moment, then he began to remove his uniform jacket.

"After what happened to him today, I can't very well launch any kind of attack," She said to herself leaning back and allowing air to pass her lips in a sigh, "Plus my orders are to keep an eye on him and find out information to relay to father. So many better things I could be doing with my nights."

She pulled the binoculars from her eyes and placed them in her pocket. She could see him just fine as he turned around and shrugged his uniform jacket off his shoulders. Her mind was caught in her thoughts as the scene in the bedroom unfolded before her without her knowing. After going and hanging his jacket he began to unbutton his dress shirt that had a chunk of it torn off of the bottom of it.

"I could just kill him right now. Father obviously considers this man an enemy." she thought bringing a finger to her chin, "Then I can spend the rest of my trip doing what I really want to do and not tailing some bratty teenager." Her face furrowed, knitting her brow in disapproval of Lelouch and the potential danger he posed to her empire. She stared into the window and realized he had his shirt off and was currently undoing his belt buckle facing her. "Oh!" She covered her mouth to keep herself from crying out in surprise. She managed to get a look at his face. Strange sensations filled her body, she felt her cheeks heat up. His bright violet eyes were soft and kind as his features relaxed while he was alone. "He's quite a handsome young man though..." The girl noted but quickly regained composure as he started to move out of the window frame. "Crap," she winced, trying to push out the thoughts of what she had witnessed.

"I don't think I'm going to accomplish more tonight," She declared to herself, "But this mission is a mission based on slow progress. I don't like it but it's the only way to catch a rat like Lelouch Lamperouge."

Lelouch was fixated on the events of the day. The beautiful foreigner he was forced to spend his day with, with more complexities than anyone he had ever met. Saphire seemed like more of an enigma the more time that was spent with him. The smirk on Saphire's face as Lelouch had fallen backwards. He looked at his reflection in the mirror as he saw his face staring back at him. "Who are you?" he asked himself.

The hot water started to create steam in the bathroom. The mirror fogged up, Lelouch stepped into the shower and allowed the hot water to run over his head, soaking his black hair. He leaned on the tiles and closed his violet eyes. He could just see that smirk.
