Twisted Reality - Book 1

Ch.5 White vs. Black

A smirk crept up to my lips as I had chess pieces that I had found surrounding me. "Let's get started."

I grabbed the communicator and dialed the code for everyone as I spoke into it. "D1, do you read me?"

"Loud and clear. You were right about that attack, by the way."

"There's no time for thank you's. Let's get this started. P1, P4, P7, move 100 meters to the right and Fire your slash harken a towards 3 o'clock. B5, ready? R2, fire anchor. B7, use inordinates. N group, you will continue your advance." As I gave the orders, I pushed each piece into place around me. "Now the enemy had five options, their move."

I watched my map with my targets around it, smirking. Clovis had ordered them to break formation as I had used the Glasco as my decoy. "That's a more stupid move than I expected."

Grabbing my communicator, I spoke into it. "You, Q1, do you have an area map?"

"Yeah, but it doesn't have any current landmarks."

"It'll do." I said. But this isn't over yet. Now time for mission three. Is everything prepared?"

"Yes." Kallen answered.

"Excellent, head to your mark now." I smirked, putting the device down before grabbing my King and setting it down. "With this, I call Check."

Watching my map, my cheek rested on my slightly closed fist. I saw the maroon color for right in the center as Clovis' men crowded around it, but jut as they approached it, the mark disappeared. As I waited, I knew Kallen would fire her slash harken up underneath the tunnel she was in with a few other men. Suddenly, I watched as all the men around in that circle disappeared. I let out a maniacal laugh of sheer joy.

"It worked! My plan worked!" I laughed again, louder. "This is going better than I expected!"

Suddenly, I heard static from my radio. Some one was yelling before it cut out, in which I gasped. No. Not him... Lancelot... I'll destroy that toy! I looked back at my map, spotting Lelouch's unit as I growled, putting it into drive as I took off towards him. I quickly contacted Lelouch on my communicator. "Lelouch!!"

"What's wrong, Scarlett?" He asked.

"Get out of there now!" I looked at my map to see Suzaku closing in on him as I gasped.

"Scarlett, I don't--"

"--I can't explain. Consider it a thank you. Now go!"

No! I was too late! Suzaku got to him as Kallen tried to protect him, but she had to eject. Before Suzaku could strike Lelouch, I blocked the attack with the steel blade on the side of the Knightmare.

(A\N: Changed my mind! Sorry!)

"What the--!?" Suzaku exclaimed.

"Go, now!!" I shouted and Lelouch took off. "You damn bastard... Now I don't feel bad you got shot! You cocky, backstabbing jackass!" I smirked. "Looks like I've got a new toy to play with!"

"Are you the one in charge?" Suzaku asked.

I just growled and slashed my sword, getting him off of me before jumping out of the building. Lancelot charged at me, but I held up my sword to block him before firing my slash harken. Lancelot dodged it as I growled before he shot at me. I quickly dodged the bullets with my shield. From my knowledge both the Lancelot and whatever this thing is called are evenly matched. Looking around the chamber, I noticed strange wording. I got up close and read the small lettering.

"Doomsday... Doomsday?" I smirked. "So that's your name, huh? Well then, Doomsday, we've got a Lancelot to take down!"

Back and forth, we fought continuously, neither one of us giving up the fight. But it was then I heard screaming. Lancelot dashed over to a falling woman with her child as he caught her. "Stopping to save someone in the midst of of battle? Nevertheless, we'll consider this a draw, but the Knightmare is coming with me." A low chuckle left my lips before I disappeared, heading to meet up with Lelouch.
