[Imperial Military Base] (Hope this is a good enough response) It had been a bit since the air fortress Damocles had ascended into the sky, leaving Suzaku and the ground based forces to handle the sudden assault sent in by the Orochi faction. It seemed like the Lancelot Albion was doing what it was designed to be: a force that would shatter all other forces. If things continued as they are, the ground-based Britannian military forces would handle the threat soon enough that they could meet up with where the Damocles could be at. Their Emperor was up to something. ---- [The Empire's Borders] "Heh, don't underestimate the Tempest Winds of Britannia!" Corentine shouted, fully immersing herself in her nickname many of the military had given her. Living up to her name, she sped right towards Strax, smoothly and just barely evading the blast, and closed in with the attempt of getting some sword swipe at her opponent. The way she used her blades was almost lightning fast, but yet, she didn't dare use the high frequency effect of her blades for now. Meanwhile, the other Knightmares that were present for this battle would prepare to use their defensive features, which were also Blaze Luminous shields but were gradually weaker versions compared to the shielding used for the airships above. ---- [High above Eastern Britannian Coastline, Damocles] As the four Doctors had appeared right to them once again, CC was rather busy on keeping an eye out for the Decepticons for their arrival here via signal, due to the fact that they were not that far to begin with. The threat that the Doctors had wasn't exactly what they would want to happen right now, so Lelouch had to think of something. As if Lelouch had realized at what a tight spot he was in, well, before their soon-to-be allies would show up, he let out a fit of laughter. It was like he was realizing how things started to turn out for his Empire. "I must admit, you are very persistent on what you aim to do...not to realize what I really want to do. If it must be some option for you to try and kill me here, what will it accomplish exactly? Actually, let 's hold off the hostilies, I mean,"Lelouch spoke after his laughter, keeping up that confidence that the Emperor of Britannia, and in a quick swipe with his hands, he revealed his Geass in both eyes,"You shall listen to what I say." Lelouch was not aware on how Geass would work on people that weren't human, but maybe it would since it worked with the collective unconscious, or pretty much the 'gods' of his world. It all happened fast, so some eye contact as Lelouch spoke those words would have some effect on them. ---- [Outside Britannian Imperial Capitol] As the drones would venture out through the forest, there were a brigade of Knightmares that were stationed right at the gates that would lead into the imperial Capitol. Some of the Knightmare's Factsphere systems started to pick up unknown signals, getting most of them, including their present commander Jeremiah Gottwald, very nervous.
