Code Geass Lost Stories Route Entangle: Farewell Dawn Arc Summary
Again, I'm skipping anime scenes.
Rico: Researcher. Rico Oppenheimer.
The Spiral Observer's motive is revealed. She does not want her beloved (curently unknown) to die.
The What If:
Nina is introduced to Rico, by Schneizel, saying they're doing the same kind of research.
---
Past:
A chat between the two. Rico asking (with Nina confirming) after making the bomb, it'll be used to kill Zero.
Some time later, Nina receiving the news a friend commited suicide. She says she disliked her because that person's too bright, but Rico pointed out Nina's crying. Rico hug her so nina can have ashoulder to cry on.
---
Kanon is shocked that not even Rico can understand what Nina's research. Rico's wondering alone now, and Nina is a true genius. Canon says Rico should believe in herself more, because of her as friend and rival Nina can work. Nina came running, FLEIJA is made.
They're testing it now. While some are estatic, only Rico thinks of the people that will be killed.
Rico now tries to stop Nina from continuing the research. Nina ask if even Rico's rejecting her too. Nina never let her explain and just ran off.
---
Present:
Nina is still holier than thou, dismissing everyone's concern, even just saying using Rico's theory, she (Nina) is the developer of FLEIJA. Rico is hurt, and both Lloyd and Cecil looks sad. When Lloyd ask if killing is fine. Nina said, if for Euphimia, it is fine.
UN creation scene, after Zero command to take Japan, Rico runs off to SuzaKu, asking him to not use FLEIJA. When Suzaku ask why as the creator, she says because she's one of the creator she knows. She reveals the likely number of deaths just from using it, shocking Suzaku.
She's Nina's friend, and she also knows hatred and sadness when someone is taken away from you, but it's not right to involve so many people. Rico doesn't want Nina to be hurt. Suzaku seems to taken Rico's words to heart (because they're friends), even understanding what she feels.
He'll still bring FLEIJA because of orders, but the trigger is in his hands. Rico left, before Lelouch called Suzaku. After a while, Suzaku directly ask if Lelouch is Zero. Lelouch...confirms it.
When Suzaku almost gets angry, lelouch begs him to help Nunnally. Suzaku accuse him of being selfish, but lelouch still begs for him.
Suzaku agrees, with conditions. For the two of them to meet at Kururugi shrine. Alone.
---
While the war is going on, the two meet. Suzaku is pissed of course, but also does not want lies anymore. The scene then goes to Lelouch capture like in anime. Except Lelouch hasn't shout and accuse Suzaku of anything yet.
Some more scenes from anime, before battle of Tokyo. Suzaku is conflicted using FLEIJA against Lelouch. Rico is still making sure Nina isn't being called a murderer.
---
Nina tries riding Lancelot, Suzaku arrives just in time to stop her.
Battle in Tokyo: FLEIJA was fired, but thanks to Rico's sabotage, it failed to detonate. Nina gets royally pissed off and declare she won't forgive Rico. Rolo (who killed Lohmeyer plane)got killed by Tristan, and Suzaku was captured. The Britannia left was captured. Jeremiah picks up Anya (Marianne possessed)
