Anime Dimension 0: Zero Invasion

Episode 4: Shirley

Dimension 0 <Zero>: Abandoned storehouse in City of Kikorowa:

"We should be safe here for now" said Keima as he peeked out the door to make sure no other soldiers were after them.

"Are you serious that you don't know me?" Rain asked.

"Y-Yeah, at least I'm pretty sure I don't" Kirito replied, while trying as hard as he could to remember the girl.

"This can't be..." Rain looked away.

Lelouch walked up to the two, "I think I know the reason for this scenario"

"You do?" the two asked in sync.

"You are from the same dimension, yet you are from a parallel universe"

"That would make more sense..." Kirito agreed and looked back to Rain, "So anyway, you said you got separated with your sister Seven right?"

Rain nodded, "We got separated when a group of Requiem soldiers attacked us when we arrived"

"I'm sure one of our groups will find her and contact us once we reach our next base"

Lelouch looked back to the way to the Central Library, "I still want to know how the enemy found our base"

"That is true..." said CC.

Dimension 0 <Zero>: City of Kikorowa underground sewage base:

"How about I make us some tea while we're here waiting for the others"

"Yeah, thanks Shirley"

She smiled and headed over to the small kitchen set up on the far right side of the room.

Beep! Beep! Suzaku's communicator went off. He picked up the ear piece and placed it onto his ear.

"Suzaku, did you make it to the base?"

"Oh, it's Lelouch, I take it that you and the others made it out safely? Shirley and I made it to the base already"

"Roger that, we'll be there soon"

"Gotcha"

Just as Suzaku turned his communicator off, Shirley came back with the two cups of tea.

"Thank you Shirley" said Suzaku politely as she handed him the cup of tea.

After taking a sip of the tea, Suzaku assured Shirley that Lelouch and the others were safe.

"That's good to hear, thank god Lulu made it out alive" she clapped her hands together with a bright smile.

Dimension 0 <Zero>: Abandoned storehouse in City of Kikorowa:

Lelouch searched through his pockets and got out ten small, circular, black badges.

"Everyone please take one" said Lelouch as he placed out his hand with the badges.

Toru picked a badge up and stared at it with confusion, "These are...?"

"I know for some of you, not killing people is a hard job since you've been trained to kill. So I had Zero- no Saber, create a small dimension where souls and their bodies can be stored unconsciously until the crisis is over. If you wear this badge, you will send the soul and body of whomever you cut down. I just managed to finish them before Requiem assaulted us. I've already made arrangements so that the others will receive the badges soon too"

"I see, so we don't need to hold back if we wear these badges" said Arata as he pinned the badge onto his uniform.

"Just remember to take it off before we leave this dimension, the school doesn't allow things not a part of the school uniform alright?" said Lilith.

"Yeah, yeah..." Arata replied.

Dimension 0 <Zero>: Outside the Capital City Astroth:

"The guards have increased at the front gate, they are cautious of everyone that passes by" Tatsumi reported.

"Then how about we split up into smaller groups, enter at different sides of the City and meet up at the Eastern watch tower" Akame suggested.

"I'm fine with that plan" said Meliodas.

Everyone else too agreed and split up into their groups. Akame, Tatsumi, Mine and Esdeath in Group A. Lubba, Leone, Shelee and Suwo in Group B. Meliodas, Bulat, Gowther and Ban in Group C. Diane and King in Group D. Lastly Ciel, Sebastian and Merlin in Group E.

"I'm sorry Diane, but you'll need to slip in through the sewers, so King make sure you guard you with your life" Meliodas apologised.

"O-Of course I will" King answered loud and clear.

"I'll leave it to you then, King..." Diane gave him a wink with a sweet smile.

"L-Leave it to me!" he said as he placed his fist onto his chest.

They then began to execute the plan. They separated and circled around the wall to the City.

Dimension 0 <Zero>: Underground sewage in City of Kikorowa:

"We're almost there, take the next right and stop seven steps later" Lelouch directed.

Edward stopped at the designated position and looked around, "Where?"

Lelouch approached the wall on the right, beside Edward, "Here" he pushed a brick, activating the mechanic of the wall splitting it to two sides, revealing an elevator.

Lelouch led the group into the elevator and pushed the button leading further below the sewers. The doors opened, Leloush expected a cheerful greeting from Shirley. But, no one was present, the base was empty. Only two cups of tea were on the table.

"Suzaku? Shirley? Where are you?" lelouched looked left and right. The others began to search for the two as well but they were nowhere to be found.

Dimension 0 <Zero>: Castle in an unknown location:

Suzaku slowly opened his eyes, "W-Where am i...?"

He was chained up on the wall in a room of darkness, a dark figure approached him. The figure began to take shape as his eyes adjusted to the darkness in the room.

"Shirley?!" he exclaimed in surprise, "No... you're not Shirley"

"Yes, you are right" a werewolf like creature approached him.

"Who are you?" he asked.

"I believe you have heard of me, I am Vlad"

"Bastard what did you do to Shirley?!"

"She is right beside you" he pointed to Suzaku's left. To his left was a girl who was also chained to the wall.

"Then who is she?"

"She is my prized creation, an artificial life form" he introduced the girl, "She has a full replication of the subject's memories, allowing perfect infiltration"

"Then she is the one-"

"That gave me your base's location? Yes she was" Vlad finished of Suzaku's sentence.

Meanwhile in a different cell room...

A small, dark black haired girl was chained to the wall, by both her arms and legs, "I need you... Yuji..."
