Guest, a noble Japanese, and Suzaku are childhood friends, both of them going through the many burdens they went through together when Britannia overcame the Japansse. Later down the road, they had to split up due to the war, Guest finding their way to Ashford Academy with a hidden identity, attending as a normal student. Nothing more. Nothing less. Somehow, Suzaku, who is now part of the Britannia military now, attended at the same Academy Guest was at, but also in a hidden identity, which no one else knows of his ownerhsip of the Lancelot, the nightmare he controls. After being reunited with Guest, Lelouch, and his younger sister Nunally, they now share the same council student club. We all are in the clubhouse together as good friends! But with the heavy duty of being part of the military, Suzaku is in battle with his nightmare, Guest gets caught up in the mess when Guest is just simply going out to shop or eat out in the cities. But then the area of the city where Guest is near, gets ambushed by the black nights, which is led by Lelouch/Zero, and Lancelot which Suzaku is piloting, are battling once again, against the Black knights, which is a rebellion group that Zero commands and leads against the Britannians. But Guest gets injured while just being in the area during their fierce battle. Knowing that Suzaku joined the military to save people, during his battle he sees Guest in the distance injured. Bloodied and beaten on the floor in the open. He fully stops everything for a moment, then rage takes over a he took Guest in his nightmare and aborted the mission he was commanded to do by the Britannia, taking Guest to the medical center that the Britannian miltary holds. He demands for the Britannia to save them in return for him finishing the mission. Then he leaves and returns after the battle comes out to a draw after a long day, returning to Guest side.
