Unknown Requiem

010

The night was quiet in the Fante castle,even C2 had fallen into a deep slumber. After dealing with Empress Lucia and her constant fears of her son hating her;C2 was finally able to gain some we rested sleep. But even as C2 slept she felt a heavy sense of dread,almost as if she knew something was about to happen. Something that would constantly worry her to no end. But what was it? Yet this feeling didn't just worry C2 but it also worried Castiel. Who currently was unable to sleep,he felt restless. And felt he had an obligation to watch over the castle. And most importantly his mother. As the young prince roamed the long cooridor he felt as if he was being watched. Slowly Castiel turned around,his right hand resting firmly on the hilt of his blade. Fully prepared to strike his enemy down at any moment.

Yet as Castiel turned he was only met by the evident darkness of the castle. He figured that maybe he was imagining things. Maybe he was just on edge after finding out the tons of secrets about his mother and his father. But something told him that wasn't it. Something told him it was something more and that he should not ignore this feeling. And he didnt. Gathering his courage to follow his instincts and continue to explore the castle. All the while;while elsewhere in the castle beginning her mission. One of the "Order " Geass User's entered the castle.

After effortlessly knocking out the guards unconcious,the young woman fluently made her way through the castle searching for her target. And she finally found her. Enjoying a peaceful dreamland was none other than Empress Lucia. Her beautiful silver hair glistening in the moonlight,while strands of her hair were spread across the pillow around her. Giving her hair the appearence of millions of tiny ribbons. She was a sight to behold. So beautiful in fact that the young woman who was sent to end her life couldn't help but to stare in awe. Was this really her target? This beautiful woman?

Was this woman,this "Immortal Queen " truly such a threat to the world? The young woman shook her head free of these distracting thoughts before slowly pulling out what appeared to a hilt of a blade. Yet the blade itself was nowhere to be seen. The hilt itself was very beautiful,fashioned from rare metals with intricate drawings of "Geass " inbedded within it. Surprisingly the weight of the hilt was heavy,but the burden of using it was even heavier. In the woman's eyes she was an innocent. A casualty that the "Order " desperately needed.

The young Geass User's grip on he hilt lessened so much she almost dropped the hilt. But she ignored it,tightening her grip on the hilt. She would end this quickly,praying to "God " that her sins would be forgiven. The woman lifted the hilt over her head,aiming it directly over the sleeping Empress's heart. Seeking to end this sin as soon as possible. "Forgive me."The young woman closed her eyes concentrating as she felt the rush of power spread throughout her entire body. The power seemed to center itself at the bladless blade. In that moment in a burst of azure light a glowing dark blue blade materialized at the hilt.

The blade itself was short giving the appearence of a daggar,which could easily be concealed when necessary. The young woman opened her eyes revealing in her left eye. A glowing symbol of geass she bore in her lovely blue eyes. It was a symbol she knew all too well. The symbol of an assasin, which was what she was. The woman took one last final glance at her target before swiftly bringing the blade down towards the unsuspecting target. And that was when it happened. Before the young woman could blink she was roughly tackled to the ground in the midst of darkness.

The young woman thrashed around,with the strange blade in her grip. Attempting not to end an unnecessary life,but it appeared things could not be avoided. Hearing the commotion Empress Lucia shot up from her bed releasing a loud scream and calling out a name that the attacker had only heard rumors of. Castiel. 'Castiel? As in the Prince who became a Knight?'The woman thought to herself before the light in the once dark room,turned on revealing a face that stopped the woman in her tracks.

He was simply handsome,almost as if he was hand chizziled by God himself. From his raven and snow kissed tipped hair,to his startling eyes. Where one was a calm lavander hue while the other was a striking amber. But in the amber eye was a symbol the woman knew all too well. Geass. He had geass. The Prince of the Fante Kingdom had geass? The attacker kicked and punched at Castiel,knowing if she was over powered by him then she would fail her mission. And overall he life would be over. If she failed her mission her allies would not hesitate to end her life. And this the young woman wouldn't allow. "Who are you? Why'd you attack the Queen?"Castiel questioned angrily,his grip tightening around the suspicious woman's wrist. Causing her to gasp at the painful grip.

The young woman remained silent refusing to answer the handsome yet deadly Prince. Not daring to make eye contact with him,afraid she would fall victim to his geass. With all the strength she had the young woman used her legs to push Castiel off her frail form. Forcing him a few feet away,and that's when she saw her opportunity. The woman charged towards Empress Lucia who called out for her guards only to be silenced as the strange glowing azure blade now protruded through her chest. "Mom!"Castiel screamed as the attacker slowly pulled the blade from Lucia's chest.

Immediately Lucia's amber eyes seemed to dull greatly,her body felt heavy and sluggish. And she soon found herself falling backwards onto the bed,barely able to breathe on her own. But this was only occupied with an unimaginable pain which felt like liquid fire which seemed to course through her veins. Empress Lucia began to convulse horribly as she released a blood curdling scream into the night air. Alerting everyone in the castle, as already The attacker could hear the many footsteps of guards coming her way. She needed to leave now.

Castiel ran towards his mother,holding her convulsing body in his arms. As he spoke to her soothingly hoping his voice would reach his mother. He then turned his gaze towards the attacker. Glaring towards her as he screamed at her "Die!"He screamed as his geass became active and like a bird the power soared through the air. Tryin fb it's best to enter the attackers subconscious, but to his disbelief it didn't work. His geass was canceled by the mere gaze of the attacker. Who slowly uncovered her eyes so that they were the only part of her vissible. Revealing her bright azure blue eyes with the symbol of geass in her irises.

"Your geass won't work on me. But mine will."The woman breathed before making eye contact with the young prince who stood frozen in place as her voice seemed to haunt his very thoughts to no end. "Tell me. What are you afraid of?"She whispered before her geass made contact with Castiel,who's eyes widened in fear as he began to live his worst nightmare. Being alone. Castiel gripped onto his head as he too screamed at the top of his lungs before passing out in pain.

It was then the young women took her leave of the castle, with her strange blade in tow she made her getaway. Leaving a broken family behind.
