Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Yeah, the two girls. I have a wrong feeling about it. Very wrong."

Shiki looked back at Lucille, noting that she couldn't actually see what he was doing since she was looking at the floor. "I don't know what you're talking about, Lucille..." He moved to slowly reach behind the chair. "Everyone knows that Geass is onl--"

Koma victorious cry cut him off as she leapt through the air, knife in hand. "Traitor!" She moved to slash at him before suddenly coming into contact with a hard object, a metallic ringing echoing through the room as her knife flew and embedded itself in a nearby wall. She looked up to find the tip of a sword pointed down at her.

Ioan barely even looked at the Eleven at his feet, snarling. "Lucille!" His other hand held his pistol perfectly steady. "What is the meaning of this?"

Ioan snarled through clenched teeth. "You are attacking a fellow Knight of the Round, one whom you intiated in the first place." He glared down the length of his sword, unmoving. "And you come charging through here with a gun and this...dirty Eleven terrorist, and you have teh audacity to ask me what's going on?"

Shiki moved to pull out the gun from behind his chair. "Actually, I'd like to know what this is all about as well." He moved to a safe distance. "I distinctly recall assigning you to infiltrate the Black Knights and to shoot this woman, the one who is currently masquerading as Zero."

Ioan twitched, livid. "You...brought...who? Lucille, this is the highest form of treason!"

"Oh shut up, both of you!" she yelled at both of them and ignored Fillan falling in.

"Ioan, you know you shouldn't talk like that in front of your superior. What do you know of this.... ELVEN? Whom with my help miraculously rose to a once legendary title---the knight of Zero."

"...and shiki, don't think I'm this stupid to face you without a strategy?"
She threw a pistol at Koma. From her pocket she took out a small Cd and walked to the nearest monitor before she continued.
"Ioan, I have proof that that man you are aiding is none other than Zero himself."
She placed the small Cd inside the monitor and played a small but lethal clip that would uncover zero's mask.

The clip was a little blurry but it featured Zero taking his mask off and showing his real face--- Shiki Kazehime.

Shiki watched the clip before shaking his head. "I'm afraid you're sadly mistaken Lucille. This is nothing more than blur," he fired his gun, sending it ripping through the player and smashing the CD. "And static."

Koma rose to her feet, clutching the gun as she aimed it at Shiki. "She'll obviously have more, Shiki. You can't hope to win this. It's checkmate. You lose."

Shiki smirked. "Do I now?" He quickly moved to grab Lucille by the hair, twisting her around to act as a shield between himself and Koma. "Lucille Vonrouge, I'm arresting you in the name of the Britannian Empire." He turned and fired again, catching Ioan in the back of his left shoulder.

Ioan moved to place his hand over his wound before realizing he could move. Snarling, he moved to slash at Koma before turning back to Fillian and Reiku. "Eleven scum!" He charged, his sword flashing through the air.

Koma fell forward, cursing as the gun clattered away from her. She looked up to see Shiki making his way out of the control room, Lucille in hand. And for a brief moment she could have sworn he winked at her.

Ioan stopped in mid-swing, his eyes glowing red for a moment before he dropped the sword to the ground, saluting. "Yes, sir."

Koma grabbed at Fillian as he made his way towards the door, getting to her feet. "I don't suppose you can use Geass on someone who's already under someone else's control can you?" She murmured through gritted teeth.

"Ioan vi Britannia, Knight of Three." Came the blunt reply, Ioan standing perfectly straight.

Fillian murmured to Koma: "No, that's indeed impossoble. Shall I try to Cancel the Geass?"
