A hand fell upon his shoulder. Lelouch didn't turn around to see what it was. He didn't need to. He could see it in the reflection of the monitor in front of him. While he had been dealing with the other two, somehow the one representing Nunnally had been able to creep inside his Knightmare. Already he could see the surroundings begin to transform once again into that place in his past. He would have to live through it all over again, and maybe this time he might even be able to do something about it.

"You seem a little bit nervous as well Lelouch. Perhaps you were hoping to spend a little more time with Nunnally?"

"Nunnally," Lelouch whispered to himself as he felt the Geass effect take him. Yes. His sister. Would this hit her as well eventually? Would it reach Tokyo settlement? Would he ever see her again? "I'm so sorry…"

"Sorry about what?"

Lelouch stood upright from his chair (probably banging his head against the cockpit ceiling in the process, probably best not to think too much about that) and stared in bewilderment at his new surroundings. This wasn't Aries Villa. This wasn't the day his mother was killed and his sister -

His sister. She was sitting right in front of him. In her wheelchair. Staring at him with concern in her eyes. Her wide open eyes. A glimpse at the calendar in the corner told him the date, and his memories filled in the rest. The last full day he had spent with Nunnally.

"Is something wrong, big brother?" Nunnally asked. Lelouch flopped down into his seat and stared at her, mentally working it out. Just then, right at the end he had thought of his mother's words. Could it be that for that single moment in time his greatest regret had been changed? Changed to this. A chance to spend more time with his sister… "Are you feeling alright?"

It would be easy for him not to do anything, then. Right? All he would have to do is not change anything and then go back to that battlefield. Back to a battlefield where even one mistake would send him back to that day. Force him to relive it all over again while fighting the almost irresistible urge to make a meaningful change.

"No," he whispered, calculating every possibility. He couldn't beat it. This ability was too much for him. No Stand could attack it without succumbing to the effect, no Knightmare could inflict meaningful damage to it. This combination of a Stand and a Geass was too powerful to be beaten by those measures. "I'm not feeling alright."

"Would you like me to have Sayoko call the doctor?"

"That won't be necessary," Lelouch said. And if neither Stand nor Knightmare could defeat this enemy that left only one option available to him. Only one way to save the day. Even if it meant taking this risky approach. This was something he normally would never dream of doing, but the sight of his sister in front of him reinforced his determination. He had to enact this strategy and he had to do it now!

"I'm currently being attacked by a rogue Stand."
