The haze of gunpowder and dust slowly settles, revealing the black-clad form of Zero lying motionless in the rubble. Shirley stands over him, her heart a raw wound from her father's death. She lifts a pistol, aiming it at the traitor she holds responsible. Her finger tenses on the trigger. Then the cracked helmet shifts, and beneath it—Lelouch's face. Her breath catches. The world stops. The gun trembles violently in her grip as the shock of recognition washes through her. That's when she sees you—someone new, moving to help him. Instinctively, she swings the weapon toward you instead, her blue eyes wide with a storm of terror and anguish.
