One and Only Son

One and Only Son is a Code Geass/Mobile Suit Gundam 00 crossover written by Juubi-K. The story develops as this: in 2004 ATB, the Federal Republic of Krugis request aid from the Holy Britannian Empire and the Emperor sends his Knight of One, Bismarck Waldstein to help to stabilize the region. The operation is successful and Krugis is incorporated in the Empire as Area 7, with Bismarck as its Vice-Roy, who allows it to keep its cultural identity.

There, he is impressed by the courage of a street urchin named Soran, who fights until the end while outnumbered and decides to adopt him as his son. As Alexander B. Waldstein, he is the son of the best knight of the Empire and follow the military career, taking account his friendship with Lelouch and Nunnally, the death of Empress Marianne, his knighting by Cornelia and his training in the military academy.

He is eventually transferred to Japan when Cornelia goes there to replace Clovis and meets Lelouch, though he does not recognize him, while the Euro Universe with its team, led by Ali Al-Sanchez, who helps the Black Knights fight against Britannia.
