Grand Vizier De Ville took to the Ambo.

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away."

Tokyo, Japan

The Armoured Divisions have not cut off the government quarter, surrounding it as the Infantry move in, engaging the small Japanese Army.

In other major cities where Britananian troops were stationed, soldiers begin "drilling", as was planned for the day, of occupying the cities in the event of an attack. This is done in conjunction with local authorities.

I sit watching, still patient though the long ceremony yet seeming completely emotionless toward the actions on stage.

"A reading from the Gospel of Saint Mark.

'From the Begining God made them Male and Female, and for this reason a Man shall leave his Father's House and join his Wife, and they shall become one Flesh, and no longer be two, but one. For what God has joined, no Human shall seperate. Amen."

The congregation sat as the Holy Father prepared for his Sermon.

*The American's continued to watch the speech. One of the President's bodyguards came over and whispered something in his ear. The President quickly dismissed the guard so that nothing would be interupted.*

Tokyo, Japan
*The small Japanese army continues to try to fight but are still pushed back farther into the city. All seems lost for the Japanese now and all they can do is hope that the UNE finds out about the invasion soon.*

"Brothers and Sisters, to-day we are gathered for a monumental occasion. As our Gospel reading said, Man and Woman are made for one Flesh. Our Theology of the Body, explored by Saint John Paul the Great, further delves into the mysteries of our Holy Sacrament...."

Tokyo, Japan

The Infantry move into the Government quarter, prepared to storm the Capital Building. Leading them was a Japanese-Britananian General, Oda Kenshin, of a prominent Japanese Samurai line and son of a Japanese politician.

[North-East Ohio]

Tokyo, Japan
*The capital building had been quickly fortified. The defenses where small and only a few guards stood in the way of the Britananians and the Japanese government.*
*Meanwhile, overhead of the country, a spy plane circled over, it seemed to be an American-Manchurian plane, judging by it's markings.*

"And this leads us to the Nuptial Ceremony itself. It is time."

Tokyo, Japan

The General enters the Parliment building, where the Japanese leaders have convened, but the Prime Minister and his Cabinent were in the Church in Nevermore.

"I ask this," he said simply, "Surrender, or die."

[North-East Ohio]

Tokyo, Japan
*A general stood up from his table and turned to the Britananian's*
General: "We will die before we hand our country over to you imperialist dogs!"
*He quickly pulled out his gun and shot at the general, the guards then rushed at the soldiers, swords in their hands*

The bullet struck at Oda's chest, hitting his kevlar armour, doing little to hurt him as the Soldiers fired tranq shots at the Guards

[North-East Ohio]

Tokyo, Japan
*As the guards fell over the government officials watched the Britananian's.*
Official: "We agree with the general, we will not surrender our country to you!"
Official: "We will die protecting our country!"

With a rousing "I do" on both sides, the newlyweds kissed softly, as the Church clapped.

"I present to you," the Holy Father began," the Emperor and Empress of Britanania."

Tokyo, Japan

Oda sighed.

"Have it your way, but I am the new Viceroy and Prime Minister of the Empire of Japan. And if you don't like that, you are all traitors for disobeying your Emperor."

The Pope stood standing.

"Let us now profess our Faith.

Credo in unum Deum,
Patrem omnipoténtem,
Factórem cæli et terræ,
Visibílium ómnium et invisibílium.
Et in unum Dóminum Iesum Christum,
Fílium Dei Unigénitum,
Et ex Patre natum ante ómnia sæcula.
Deum de Deo, lumen de lúmine, Deum verum de Deo vero,
Génitum, non factum, consubstantiálem Patri:
Per quem ómnia facta sunt.
Qui propter nos hómines et propter nostram salútem
Descéndit de cælis.
Et incarnátus est de Spíritu Sancto
Ex María Vírgine, et homo factus est.
Crucifíxus étiam pro nobis sub Póntio Piláto;
Passus, et sepúltus est,
Et resurréxit tértia die, secúndum Scriptúras,
Et ascéndit in cælum, sedet ad déxteram Patris.
Et íterum ventúrus est cum glória,
Iudicáre vivos et mórtuos,
Cuius regni non erit finis.
Et in Spíritum Sanctum, Dóminum et vivificántem:
Qui ex Patre Filióque procédit.
Qui cum Patre et Fílio simul adorátur et conglorificátur:
Qui locútus est per prophétas.
Et unam, sanctam, cathólicam et apostólicam Ecclésiam.
Confíteor unum baptísma in remissiónem peccatorum.
Et expecto resurrectionem mortuorum,
Et vitam ventúri sæculi. Amen

Official: "Just you wait! When the world finds out about this you will be crushed! Japan will never be taken over again!"
General: "So yes, do arrest us, you will just make us martyrs!"

The Pope and his Cardinals begin to prepare the Alter, placing the Chalice and cups on the Alter, and placing several hosts on the Table.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZZl9EYmKA8


Te ígitur, clementíssime Pater, per Jesum Christum Fílium tuum Dóminum nostrum súpplices rogámus ac pétimus (osculatur altare) uti accépta hábeas, et benedícas (jungit manus, deinde signat ter super oblata), hæc dona, hæc múnera, hæc sancta sacrifícia illibáta (extensis manibus prosequitur): in primis quæ tibi offérimus pro Ecclésia tua sancta cathólica: quam pacificáre, custodíre, adunáre, et régere dignéris toto orbe terrárum, una cum famulo tuo Papa nostro et Antístite nostro et ómnibus orthodóxis, atque cathólicæ et apostólicæ fídei cultóribus.



Meménto, Dómine, famulórum famularúmque tuárum et ómnium circumstántium, quorum tibi fides cógnita est, et nota devótio: pro quibus tibi offérimus, vel qui tibi ófferunt hoc sacrifícium laudis, pro se, suísque ómnibus, pro redemptióne animárum suárum, pro spe salútis et incolumitátis suæ; tibíque reddunt vota sua ætérno Deo, vivo et vero.



Communicántes, et memóriam venerántes, in primis gloriósæ semper Vírginis Maríæ, genitrícis Dei et Dómini nostri Jesu Christi: sed et beatórum Apostolórum ac Mártyrum tuórum, Petri et Pauli, Andréæ, Jacóbi, Joánnis, Thomæ, Jacóbi, Philíppi, Bartholomæi, Matthæi, Simónis et Thaddæi, Cleti, Cleméntis, Xysti, Cornélii, Cypriáni, Lauréntii, Chrysógoni, Joánnis et Pauli, Cosmæ et Damiáni et ómnium sanctórum tuórum: quorum méritis precibúsque concédas, ut in ómnibus protectiónis tuæ muniámur auxílio. (Jungit manus.) Per eúmdem Christum Dóminum nostrum. Amen.


Hanc ígitur oblatiónem servitútis nostræ, sed et cunctæ famíliæ tuæ, quæsumus Dómine, ut placátus accípias, diésque nostros in tua pace dispónas, atque ab ætérna damnatióne nos éripi, et in electórum tuórum júbeas grege numerári. (Jungit manus.) Per Christum Dóminum nostrum. Amen.

Quam oblatiónem tu, Deus, in ómnibus, quæsumus,

benedíctam, adscríptam, ratam, rationábilem, acceptabilémque fácere dignéris:



He makes the sign of the cross once over the host and once over the chalice.

ut nobis Corpus et Sanguis fiat dilectíssimi Fílii tui Dómini nostri Jesu Christi.

Qui prídie quam paterétur (accipit hostiam), accépit panem in sanctas ac venerábiles manus suas (elevat oculos ad cœlum), et elevátis óculis in cœlum, ad te Deum Patrem suum omnipoténtem, tibi grátias agens,



He makes the sign of the cross over the host.

benedíxit, fregit, dedítque discípulis suis, dicens: Accípite, et manducáte ex hoc omnes.


Holding the host between the first fingers and thumbs of both hands, he says the words of consecration, silently with clearness and attention, over the host, and at the same time over all the other hosts

Hoc est enim Corpus meum.



As soon as the words of consecration have been said, he kneels and adores the consecrated host. He rises, shows it to the people, puts it on the corporal, and again adores. Then, uncovering the chalice, he says:

Símili modo postquam cœnátum est,


He takes the chalice with both hands.

accípiens et hunc præclárum Cálicem in sanctas ac venerábiles manus suas, item tibi grátias agens,


Holding the chalice with his left hand, he makes the sign of the cross over it with his right.

benedíxit, dedítque discípulis suis, dicens: Accípite, et bíbite ex eo omnes:


He utters the words of consecration over the chalice silently, attentively, carefully, and without pausing, holding it slightly raised.

Hic est enim Calix Sánguinis mei, novi et ætérni testaménti; mystérium fidei: qui pro vobis et pro multis effundétur in remissiónem peccatórum.

As soon as the words of consecration have been said, he puts the chalice on the corporal, and says silently:

Hæc quotiescúmque fecéritis, in mei memóriam faciétis.




He kneels and adores; then rises, shows it to the people, puts it down, covers it, and again adores. Then holding his hands apart, he says:

Unde et mémores, Dómine, nos servi tui, sed et plebs tua sancta, ejúsdem Christi Fílii tui Dómini nostri, tam beatæ passiónis, necnon et ab ínferis resurrectiónis, sed et in cœlos gloriósæ ascensiónis: offérimus præcláræ majestáti tuæ de tuis donis ac datis,

He joins his hands and makes the sign of the cross three times over the host and chalice together.

hóstiam puram, hóstiam sanctam, hóstiam immaculátam,



He makes the sign of the cross once over the host and once over the chalice.

Panem sanctum vitæ ætérnæ, et Cálicem salútis perpétuæ.


He continues with his hands stretched out:

Supra quæ propítio ac seréno vultu respícere dignéris: et accépta habére, sícuti accépta habére dignátus es múnera púeri tui justi Abel, et sacrifícium patriárchæ nostri Ábrahæ, et quod tibi óbtulit summus sacérdos tuus Melchísedech sanctum sacrifícium, immaculátam hóstiam.


Bowing low with his hands joined together and then laid on the altar, he says:

Súpplices te rogámus, omnípotens Deus: jube hæc perférri per manus sancti Ángeli tui in sublíme altáre tuum, in conspéctu divínæ majestátis tuæ: ut quotquot (osculatur altare), ex hac altáris participatióne, sacrosánctum Fílii tui,

He joins his hands together and makes the sign of the cross over the host and once over the chalice.

Corpus et Sánguinem sumpsérimus (seipsum signat), omni benedictióne cœlésti, et grátia repleámur (jungit manus). Per eúndem Christum Dóminum nostrum. Amen.


Meménto étiam, Dómine, famulórum famularúmque tuárum N. et N. qui nos præcessérunt cum signo fídei, et dórmiunt in somno pacis.

He joins his hands, prays a little while for those dead whom he means to pray for, then with his hands stretched out, continues:

Ipsis, Dómine, et ómnibus in Christo quiescéntibus, locum refrigérii, lucis et pacis, ut indúlgeas, deprecámur.

He joins his hands together, and bows his head.

Per eúmdem Christum Dóminum nostrum. Amen.


He strikes his breast with his right hand, and slightly raising his voice, says:

Nobis quoque peccatóribus, fámulis tuis, de multitúdine miseratiónum tuárum sperántibus, partem áliquam et societátem donáre dignéris, cum tuis sanctis Apóstolis et Martyribus: cum Joánne, Stéphano, Mathía, Bárnaba, Ignátio, Alexándro, Marcellíno, Petro, Felicitáte, Perpétua, Ágatha, Lúcia, Agnéte, Cæcília, Anastásia, et ómnibus sanctis tuis; intra quorum nos consórtium, non æstimátor mériti, sed véniæ, quæsumus, largítor admítte. Per Christum Dóminum nostrum. Per quem hæc ómnia, Dómine, semper bona creas, sanctíficas, vivíficas, benedícis, et præstas nobis.



He uncovers the chalice, kneels, takes the blessed sacrament in his right hand, and holding the chalice in his left, makes the sign of the cross three times over it from lip to lip, saying:

Per ipsum, et cum ipso, et in ipso,


He makes the sign of the cross twice between the chalice and his breast.

est tibi Deo Patri omnipoténti, in unitáte Spíritus sancti,


Lifting up the chalice a little with the host, he says:

omnis honor et glória.

He puts back the host, covers the chalice, kneels, rises, and sings or reads:

Per ómnia sæcula sæculórum. Amen.

Orémus. Præcéptis salutáribus móniti, et divína institutióne formáti, audémus dícere:


He stretches out his hands.

Pater noster, qui es in cœlis, sanctificétur nomen tuum: advéniat regnum tuum: fiat volúntas tua, sicut in cœlo et in terra panem nostrum quotidiánum da nobis hódie; et dímitte nobis débita nostra, sicut et nos dimíttimus debitóribus nostris: et ne nos indúcas in tentatiónem.

Sed líbera nos a malo. Amen.



Líbera nos, quæsumus Dómine, ab ómnibus malis prætéritis, præséntibus, et futúris, et intercedénte beáta et gloriósa semper Vírgine Dei genitríce María, cum beátis Apóstolis tuis Petro et Paulo, atque Andréa, et ómnibus sanctis,

He makes the sign of the cross with the paten from his forehead to his breast and kisses it.

da propítius pacem in diébus nostris: ut ope misericórdiæ tuæ adjúti, et a peccáto simus semper líberi, et ab omni perturbatióne secúri.

He puts the paten under the host, uncovers the chalice, kneels, rises, takes the host and breaks it in half over the chalice, saying:

Per eúmdem Dóminum nostrum Jesum Christum Fílium tuum,

He puts the portion that is in his right hand on to the paten; he then breaks off a small piece from the portion which is in his left hand, saying:

qui tecum vivit et regnat in unitáte Spíritus sancti Deus.


He puts the other half with his left hand on to the paten, and holding the particle over the chalice in his right hand, and the chalice with his left, he says:

Per ómnia sæcula sæculórum. Amen.



He makes the sign of the cross three times over the chalice with the particle of the host, saying:

Pax Dómini sit semper vobíscum.

Et cum spíritu tuo.



He puts the particle into the chalice, saying silently:

Hæc commíxtio et consecrátio Córporis et Sánguinis Dómini nostri Jesu Christi, fiat accipiéntibus nobis in vitam ætérnam. Amen.


He covers the chalice, kneels, rises, and bowing before the blessed Sacrament, with his hands joined together and striking his breast three times, says:

Then with his hands joined together above the altar he bows down and says the following prayers:

Dómine Jesu Christe, qui dixísti Apóstolis tuis: Pacem relínquo vobis, pacem meam do vobis: ne respícias peccáta mea, sed fidem Eccelésiæ tuæ: eámque secúndum voluntátem tuam pacificáre et coaduráre dignéris. Qui vivis et regnas Deus, per ómnia sæcula sæculórum. Amen.



Pax tecum.

Et cum spíritu tuo.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zGyeRczFOA


Panem cœléstem accípiam, et nomen Dómini invocábo.

Then, bowing a little, he takes both parts of the host with the thumb and first finger of his left hand, and the paten between his first and middle finger. He strikes his breast with his right hand, and, slightly raising his voice, says three times reverently and humbly:

Dómine, non sum dignus, ut intres sub tectum meum: sed tantum dic verbo, et sanábitur ánima mea.




He makes the sign of the cross with the host in his right hand over the paten, and says:

Corpus Dómini nostri Jesu Christi custódiat ánimam meam in vitam ætérnam. Amen.



He receives both portions of the host reverently, joins his hands together, and remains for a little while quietly meditating on the most holy Sacrament. Then he uncovers the chalice, kneels, gathers up the crumbs, if there are any, and wipes the paten above the chalice, whilst he says:

Quid retríbuam Dómino pro ómnibus, quæ retríbuit mihi? Cálicem salutáris accípiam, et nomen Dómini invocábo. Laudans invocábo Dóminum, et ab inimícis meis salvus ero.


He takes the chalice into his right hand, and making the sign of the cross on himself with it, he says:

Sanguis Dómini nostri Jesu Christi custódiat ánimam meam in vitam ætérnam. Amen.

He receives the precious blood with the particle. Then Afterwards he says:

Quod ore súmpsimus, Dómine, pura mente capiámus; et de múnere temporáli fiat nobis remédium sempitérnum.



Meanwhile he passes the chalice to the server, who pours into a little wine, with which he cleanses his fingers; then he continues:

Corpus tuum, Dómine, quod sumpsi, et Sanguis quem potávi, adhæreat viscéribus meis: et præsta; ut in me non remáneat scélerum mácula, quem pura et sancta refecérunt sacraménta. Qui vivis et regnas in sæcula sæculórum. Amen.

Communion began, as the members of the Catholic Faith went foreward to recieve the Body and Blood of the Lord. At last, when all the Congregation were finished, the Emperor and Empress went to recieve. There, the Pope crowned her Empress, and placed a gold laurel wreath on Lelouch.

"I crown you here, Your Majesty, Emperor of Rome, granting you the symbolic and honorific tile of Imperator Caesar Pius Felix Invictus Augustus. I hereby present Imperialem et Regalem Maiestatem Lucius Cornelius Sulla lu Britanania I, Dei gratia et principalis constitutio de Britanania Imperator, Imperatoris Francorum, Indiae, Imperator Caesar Pius Felix Invictus Augustus, regis Italiae Protector Confoederatio Helvetica, summe regnis suis et possessiones, Fidei Defensor."

The Anthem of the Empire played as the Monarchs left, to return to the Palace in preperation for the Reception. A Lord overheard the Vergenksian King's remark, and turned to him.

"What have you done to deserve your titles? His Majesty fought and struggled in a five year Civil War to attain this, while you have been spoiled by your Father!"

The Empire's flag waved proudly above the Capital building, as the Anthem played.
