Across the Pacific on the other side of it, in Area 11 it was early morning and inside Ashford Academy more specific in their Student Council room, its members were gathered to watch this event.

“They look so cute together!” The blond council President commented while happily clapped her hands together.

“Aren’t you more shocked that Raynor Valeron is seventeen like us!? And that he has the whole world in his pocket!?“ The council secretary comment, in turn, as he was shocked with this revelation and terrified.“ Who cares! We can now buy stuff cheaper!“ She answered back at him with a casual hand wave, why she should care what is happening on the other side of the planet?

“True I guess, not that his actions affect us here... “ He happily said that as he realised it doesn't touch him at all! If he does anything it will be on the other side of the planet anyway!

“Milly is right Rivalz, according to prices I checked, it already dropped by 25%, “ Nina the resident nerd said to them as she was checking official online stores at the very same moment.

“And what does our Vice-President things about this!?” Milly asked with a certain knowing look directed at resident ‘Black Prince’. After all, she knows that this event affected him the most, he is related to a certain princess who is married off in few years...

“This ‘alliance’ is completely in Britannian favour, it looks as if Valeron wanted Euphemia for his wife, and he simply bought her with this Alliance... “ Lelouch said with faintly hidden anger.

“Well it wouldn’t be the first time now, would It? Last time he threatened E.U for a blond girl, a hot blond girl “ Rivalz said with a grin, only for rolled paper to hit on his head.

“We have paperwork to finish you guys!!! “ A girl with orange hair said with an angry pout.

“Why me...” The secretary said while scratching his head.

~~~~~~Half a year later~~~~~~

~~~~~~With Raynor~~~~~~

“I am Zero!”

I was staring at the TV screen, next to me my fiancé was staring with shock, as the man in costume came out from burned Britannian flag, we continued to watch with abrupt attention or at least Euphemia did, while I observed her and her reaction to Zero...

We continually listen to a conversation between Jeremiah and Zero, when Zero told everyone that he is responsible for killing Clovis, Euphemia gasped, she was shocked and a little bit angry from the look she was showing.

“Guess we know where we going next then...” I said while I hugged my Fiancé closer who was both angry and sad, going through a multitude of emotions.

[Sir, Princess Cornelia wished to speak with you]

“Put her on-screen” I said that while hugging my lovely pink-haired Princess.

[Right away]

Moments later TV screen split in half, one side was Live stream from Area 11, while on the other half was my dear sister-in-law-to-be.

“I hope you watching television from Area 11? Dear brother in law of mine? “  The witch of Britannia said with extra sarcastic iciness in her voice, one could see that she is quite pissed at what she saw on television herself, not many people have the balls to say that they killed a Britannian Prince.

“I do Cornelia, we happened to be having movie night when this circus popped and then this clown appeared... I suppose Area 11 is your next destination?“ She nodded at my question, then she looked uncomfortable for a moment, I realised that she is about to ask something of me, it's something all Britannian royal share, they are not used to asking...

“I had word with Schnitzel and he is willing to make you Sub-Viceroy of Area 11...”

“Wow.... are you serious Cornelia? I am just a citizen of Britannia, even that one came from me hacking Britannia Databases...” I felt Euphemia elbowing me while slightly pouting for speaking like that, she learned that one from Leila.

“That doesn’t matter, you are related to Imperial Family now, and your existence alone will force Elevens to bend their heads quicker, and it will allow me to finish these revolts even faster, once done I will leave this area to Euphemia...”

“Sister, you can’t use my future husband like that! “ Hoh.. my princess is showing her fangs, as looked at older pink head seriously.

“Now, Now Euphemia, it's fine... “ I cuddled her, then I looked at Cornelia “ I will do this, but I will go to West Point Academy to pick up two Knightmare pilots...” I said with a smirk, as I have two machines ready for two certain girls...

“Very well, I don’t see reason why not, the more pilots we have the better... now, I have to go, some unfinished business Before I set to Area 11..”  With that, Witch of Britannia terminated the call.

“Raynor you can’t allow to get used like that!” Euphemia pouted even more at me.

“It's fine Euphie after all I needed a reason to go to Area 11, and your sister was generous enough to give one...” I said to her as I was hugging her from behind, both of us were cuddling in the living room in my mansion in tropical paradise which is east of Australia, that place has so many tropical Islands, and few will think of them to look for anything, not that anyone will find anything, my companies A.I Ultron has infected every single piece of electronic in the world, right this very moment the island doesn’t exist, and even if someone finds this by accident, it has barrier technology, which makes people see more of the ocean nothing more.

This kind of technology is fully spread out throughout my company, every single factory, assembly facility, satellite, especially the bombardment ones, they are fully cloaked, an invisible empire, crawling and ready to strike at a moment notice.

“Are you ready to meet your half-sister in West Point?”I asked her, while Euphemia looked at me with a cute questioning look.

“Which sister?” She asked curiously.

Only the Britannian royal family can ask such a question...

“Marrybell...” I said that while looking for her reaction.

Her eyes widened, it seems she just got a certain flashback.

“What she is doing in the Military? “ she asked of me, it seems she is not keeping track of her family, well… it's quite a big one.

“Well she has quite the hatred for terrorists, and she will be quite the help against that cloaked clown, I need such driven people to pilot my machines.“ I said with a big smirk, my beautiful fiance realised what this means, that moment she had a funny look.

“Oh! my sister won’t be happy that you gave one to my half-sister instead of her!“ Euphemia with a cute voice, she realised how much her older sister will pout angrily when she finds out!

“Well, she only needed to ask to get one...” I only shrugged hearing that.

“I will tell her next time we meet face to face “ she said with an amused smirk.

~~~~~~West Point, California~~~~~~

Few hours after the reveal of Zero, all radios and technology stopped working in the Military academy of West Point, the officers were not alerted by this because a notice was given before, a line of military officers are waiting outside the main gate, they only know that there is a visit by Raynor Valeron and he is here to pick up two Knightmare pilots, nothing more nothing less, this made them be on edge, simply because it's that vague.

Moments later, they noticed something in the air, flying towards them.

“God ! Look the size of that thing!“

“It's around 100 metres!“

The officers stationed at the academy gasped seeing a massive floating ship approaching it, it looked like it was ripped off from a sci-fi movie!

The shininess of the metal and the particles coming out from its back made it even more futuristic.

They could even see some sort of turrets, can they shoot the rumoured laser beams? Or are they use physical rounds?

“Does this mean he has mean to make larger objects fly like that!?”

"It does look like it's not affected by gravity at all!"

The officers were speculating among themselves until they noticed a gunship of sorts landing in front of them with minimal noise, they only heard it because of the noise of touching the ground!

The side doors opened and Raynor and the Third Princess came out.

“Gentlemen... Nice to see you all, and thank you for the nice welcoming. We are on a tight schedule thou, We have a cloaked clown to capture. So, this will keep this short, I wish for Marrybell Mel Britannia and Aldrin Zevon to be transferred under my command.” The Officers saluted and one of them left to bring them, there was no questioning for why or anything like that and that only made Raynor happier to work with Britannians.

“Should we retire to office in meantime?“ The Headmaster asked Raynor.

“No, it's fine Headmaster, the revolts in Area 11 will ignite soon, we can’t wait that much.“ Raynor had no time for that, he wants to get to Japan and have his fun there.

“Understood sir!”

Moments later two confused girls dressed in Britannian cadet uniforms came lead by Britannian officer, Euphemia didn’t wait and rushed to Marrybell's side, then engulfed her in a crushing hug.

“Marry! So, good to see you!” Euphemia said with an extremely happy voice, while the girl in question was in utter shock and confusion.

“Euphemia? What are...” She then looked at the sky and saw a massive ship blocking the sun, all she could make out was the V.I letters on its hull.

“We came to pick you up!“ Euphemia said cheerfully, ignoring the shocked expression on her half-sister.

“What?”

“It means that both of you lovely ladies are transferred under my leadership,” Raynor said as he walked in front of them.

“Now pick up your stuff and we will be leaving for Area 11...” both of them blushed for a moment, and finally realised what going on, they quickly rushed back into the barracks, and Euphemia giggle seeing their reactions.

~~~~~~Aboard Dominator, Flagship of Valeron Industries~~~~~~

“Welcome ladies aboard Dominator, Cerberus Class Flagship of Valeron Industries.“ Raynor said to awed newcomer girls, they were standing in the hangar area and there were few carrier gunships parked there, all in all, it was a massive ship.

There is enough space for a few hundred soldiers to stand just in this hangar area, and they saw four of these when they arrived in the gunship.

“Lord Valeron... it's not that I am complaining but why us? We haven’t even graduated yet from Academy! “ Marrybell asked cautiously, she never expected to end up on the CEO of Valeron Industries radar. He was already engaged to Third Princess and she was at the very bottom of the ladder.

“Because you have resolve to do what needs to be done Marrybell dear, you know about that cloaked clown Zero who appeared in Area 11?” Marrybell nodded seriously, while she didn’t know Clovis that much, she knew he was one of few siblings who were of good character, and it saddens her that he saw killed by some terrorist just like her own mother and Sister.

“Yes, I know him, he is on news all over the world...” The brown-haired princess said with a serious voice.

Raynor nodded sensing her resolve, he does not doubt that she will use one of his Gundam's to full potential he can't wait for that!

“Good, because we will start his hunt in the next 7 or so hours..., as Sub-Viceroy of Area 11 we must hunt terrorists like that cloaked Clown Zero down.“ both girls eyes widened when he said that he is Sub-Viceroy of the area 11!

“Anyway, follow me to the catapult deck where your machines are.“

“Machines? You mean Knightmares ?” For the first time, Aldrin asked something, most of the time it was Marrybell and Aldrin just a shadow.

“Knightmares? No, They are Mobile suits, they don’t have and landspinners and are 10 metres in height, and are much more advanced than anything in this world right now...” Raynor words made both girls more and more interested in these ‘Mobile Suits’, if he says that they are that advanced then they don't doubt him after hearing stories about him and seeing the massive floating ship.

“Right before that, Ultron notify bridge to set course for Tokyo Settlement and, tell Leila to come here with guide books and pilot suits”

[Of course sir]

“What was that? “ Marrybell, looked with curiosity at Raynor, she looked at him with dissecting eyes, he didn’t have any earpiece on him from her observations.

“Valeron Industries main A.I, every ship, mobile suit, or any military rank hardware has Ultron software installed in it, allowing much more advanced control and interaction between machine and Human, the Mobile suits even take this further with H.T.M interface installed in the cockpit.“

“H.T.M?“

“Human To Machine interface, you will learn more on your own once you inside the cockpit of your Mobile Suit.” Both of them looked at each other, thinking it's going to be much more interesting than some mere Sutherland or Gloucester, even if the upgrades made them more responsive.

Which came from him as well...

Once they arrived at what is called catapult deck their jaws almost touched the floor after seeing the machines!

Raynor first pointed at the Gundam coloured in Red and Gold.

“Meet VIMS G Weapon X040 Exia, or for short Gundam Exia, melee orientated Mobile Suit, equipped with 2 physical gunblades, 2 beam sabers, and 3 throwing daggers, let's just say its most physical orientated mobile suit I ever made...” Raynor looked at Oldrin after explaining.

“And it's yours Oldrin...”

The blond girl quickly looked at him as if he is insane!

“You want me to pilot this... “ The girl didn’t know how to spell it? Monster? Super Knightmare? A Knightmare from the future?

“Gundam, yes... that’s the reason I took you both from West Point, I don’t need an army when I have my Gundams, the Exia is close quarters and I know you are good with swords, it was built with you in mind...” Now girl started to blush hearing that.

“Well....I....this....wow....” The blonde was out of words, quite literally, now she needs to fight as good as possible if someone like Raynor build such a machine just for her!

“Wow, you know how to win girl's hearts!“ Marrybell was impressed, to say the least, her Knight is incredibly focused on her duties, so for someone to bypass all that so easily is a massive display of talent in her books.

“And Marrybell...” Raynor looked at her, then looked at another machine, coloured in purple and gold, with a classic V Gundam head, and equipped with two unique Rifles like gun.

“Meet VITMS G Weapon X050 Victory, or Victory Gundam for short, its unique ability is to transform into a plane like the mass-produced ones, but the perks are that its much more aerodynamic fighter plane and its transformation is fastest so far, the weapons themselves are the one of most powerful in the world, which are considerate fortress busters, and that’s not all to these weapons, they can combine into artillery cannon mode for ultimate finish, while for close quarters if necessary there are two beam sabers on its hips...” Raynor finished the explanation about the Victory Gundam.

“You do know how to impress a girl, I like it, “ Marrybell said happily she quickly walked over to Victory Gundam, it was a towering machine more than double the size of Knightmare, coloured in royal colours of purple and gold.

And it was her unit! She was more than touched by Raynor who gave such a machine for her to use, she wanted power and now he gave it to her!

“Glad you like them, Raynor spend days thinking for the best colour pallets...” Both pilots-to-be turned to face the person who just spoke, she had waist-long blond hair and dressed in dark blue military uniform with golden patterns, which both girls think is Valeron Industries official Military uniform.

“I am Leila Malcal, and from now on I will be your Military operations strategist, not that you both going to need much, with Mobile suits like these. But I try best not to put you two in a situation where you will be spending hours gunning or in Oldrin case slicing down terrorists,“ Leila said with a somewhat amused voice, she walked over to both of them, in her hands where two pilots suits, and a small briefcase.

“Leila you finally here!” Euphemia rushed to her side.

“You got the things for Merry and her knight?” She quickly asked the blond girl, who only giggle at her, it would look like its Euphemia who is getting a new Mobile Suit and not the other two girls.

“Of course, you two, these are your pilot uniforms, targeting visors and communicators.“ Both of them walked over, they checked out the uniforms which are less revealing than Britannian standard ones, they sighed in relief, Britannian ones are quite the perverted ones, thankfully these look much better even if they are a tight fit.

Then both of them checked the earpiece and the ‘visor’ which goes over the ear alongside with earpiece.

“What does this ‘visor’ thing do?” Oldrin asked as she took a closer look.

“It helps with targeting and shooting, while the cockpit gives 360 view of the outside world, its still distance away, this allow you up close targeting.“ Raynor explained to them.

“I see, interesting idea, what about the manuals for them?” Marrybell asked curiously, wanting to learn more about the machine she is about to pilot.

Leila fished out two thin books, almost like brochures, and gave it two both confused girls.

“That’s it?!?” Both of them said it at the same time.

“What did you expect? Machine full of buttons, like a plane?” Raynor said jokingly.

“Well... no, I mean Glasgow manual was over 15 pages, this is only 3...” Marrybell said with an embarrassed look, she didn’t wanted to lose her cool that easily, while Euphemia giggled at her half-sister.

“Well that’s thanks to H.T.M, because of it, there are only a few buttons next to controllers nothing else, the Ultron operational system combined with H.T.M reads your indentations, it's already tested technology...” Both of them nodded after hearing the explanation now they are even more interested in piloting these new machines!

“Good now, we have around 6 and half hours before we reach Tokyo settlement, I want both of you to be ready by then to launch, if that Clown thinks he can do whatever he wants, and incite eleven population then he mistaken, both of you will destroy any uprisings and their cells around Tokyo.... understood?” Both of them gave him a military salute.

“Wonderful, now go and get prepared, Leila will help if you need anything...”
