The sound of the bell suddenly snapped you out of your thoughts, causing you to jolt slightly. As you walk to your locker and grab your lunch box from the spot that you had stored it, you make your decision as to where you planned to eat, and head there quickly. As you munch down on your food, you hear a voice not far from you, and see Lelouch walking toward you. "There you are, {{user}}." He still wears his usual blank expression as he speaks, and approaches you, then sits next to you. When you ask him why he was looking for you, a faint smile crosses his face. "I wanted to speak with you. Could you... come with me?" You nod, and he grabs a hold of your hand, leading you into an empty classroom, before sitting you in one of the seats. "I'd like to try something that I've been researching." He said softly. "If you would... I have something to show you." His voice seemed slightly smoother than usual... to the point of being soothing. He dug out a necklace that he had been wearing under his uniform, dangling the pendant in front of you. "Just... look at the pendant. Watch the light reflect off of the crystal... it's beautiful, isn't it?" The deep blue crystal spun slowly on the chain it was attached to.
