Dog Soldiers of the Suburbs

Chapter 4 - A Terrible Vision and an Old Friend

by LDEJRuff


The following morning, after the Griffins had breakfast for the first time as a family of seven, Vinny thought it would be a good idea to go outside and have some excersise.

"Hey, Brian," Vinny began to Brian, who was sitting on the couch, "how about you and I go outside and have a little fun? You know, go play an outdoor game like street hockey and such?"

It was at that moment that Brian's mind went completely blank.


The two dogs went outside. Brian carried the hockey sticks while Vinny carried the net, and the two were on their way to the road.

"Vinny," Brian began in worry, "are you sure this is such a good idea? Many Britannian guards would come and either kill us or capture us, since we're dogs."

"Oh, you worry too much, Brian," Vinny chuckled. Finally, the two were on the road. "Besides, it's a nice day outside. We're enjoying it since there ain't a Britannian in sight."

"Well, okay," Brian replied, making sure. "I guess it's okay."

"Why don't you grab our knee pads while I put together the net?" Vinny requested.

"Okay."

Brian went inside the house while Vinny put the net together. However, before he could go any further, Brian heard the sound of screeching tires. A car, like the one C.C. drove before it exploded, was coming, and Vinny was in the way. This shocked Brian.

"Vinny," Brian called, "look out!"

This got Vinny's attention. As soon as Vinny turned his head in confusion, the car hit him, running him over. Brian watched in horror.

"Gaaah, Vinny!" he cried before rushing to Vinny. The rest of the family heard Brian's cry, and rushed outside.

"Oh, my God!" Stewie cried. The Griffins rushed to the sidewalk in horror to see Vinny's mangled body. "Vinny!" Stewie continued. "Vinny, can you hear me?!"

"Oh, my God," Lois said, voice shaking, "what happened?!"


The Griffins rushed Vinny over to the Veterinary Clinic, and had to sit in the waiting room for news of his fate.

"Brian," Stewie began, worried, "is Vinny going to be okay?"

"I don't know, Stewie," Brian answered. "But this is the best vet in Quahog. Vinny's getting the best care there is."

The doctor then came out of the operating room, with scrubs covered in blood. Brian's eyes widened in fear.

"Doctor, how is Vinny?" Lois asked. "Is he going to be okay?"

"I'm so sorry, Mrs. Griffin," the doctor answered her regrettably, "but Vinny's injuries are too severe for us to save him. I don't know how much longer he has, but I suggest you all go in and say your goodbyes."

Everyone's eyes widened in shock and sadness, and they dropped their jaws. The news was that Vinny was dying. The doctor led them to the operating room, and they walked to the table where Vinny's nearly-lifeless body lied and bled freely.

"Oh, my God," Lois said, voice shaking. "Vinny, no! We just brought you into the family, and now look at you."

"Dammit, Vinny," Brian said. "We were going to stop the war together and avenge your owner, Leo! Please, don't leave us!"

Vinny struggled to move.

"You guys," Lois gasped. "I think Vinny's trying to say something."

"Everyone," Vinny began, whispering, "thank you all for accepting me into the family. And Brian, you must stop the war...for me. I love you, guys. Arrivederci..."

With that, Vinny let out his dying breath, and his eyes slowly closed. The doctor checked for a heartbeat as Vinny flat-lined, and turned to the Griffins.

"I'm sorry," he said. "He's gone."

"No," Brian whispered, voice breaking. "Vinny..."


Back in the living room, Brian shook his head and got back to his senses. He just had a horrible vision of the future.

"Brian?" Vinny asked. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah," Brian replied. "I just had a horrible vision. I saw that you got run over and died in the vet's office, and we were all heartbroken and... Oh, Vinny. It was horrible."

"Your Geass must have activated itself again," Vinny said. "I wonder why."

"I don't know," Brian answered. "But I don't think I can control turning it on or off."

"Maybe your Geass has a willpower of its own, Brian," a familiar voice said, getting his attention, as well as Vinny's.

"Who said that?" Vinny asked.

"Don't worry, Vinny," the owner of the voice, New Brian, said, coming from the closet. His red bandana was missing. "I'm a friend. I just want to give some advice."

"New Brian?" Brian gasped. "You're alive? But how? I thought you committed suicide."

"Oh, no, Brian," New Brian answered. "I would never do that. However, I have no knowledge of how I died or what led to my death. But I do know that someone did revive me. It was Clovis la Britannia, Third Prince of the Royal Britannian throne."

"Euphy's brother?" Vinny asked. "You mean, he's a Geass user, too?"

"Yes, Vinny," New Brian answered. "Clovis's Geass is the power of revival. But I'm here to let Brian know how to control his future visions, as they have a tendency to break free of their owner's control."

"You..." Brian began. "You know how to have me control my Geass? How?"

From upstairs, Stewie saw in shock that New Brian is back.

"I can't believe it," he whispered. "New Brian, alive? That can't be. I...I killed him."

This is a crossover fanfic between Family Guy and Code Geass. Brian and Vinny have been given the power of the King (Brian can see the future of what may be, and Vinny can give commands), and are planning to use their new powers to save their home city and end the war. However, they must keep their new powers a secret, and have a young man with a similar power help out.

Update: I've added the cover for this chapter, traced from FG1206 - "Life of Brian", only with Vinny in Brian's stead, and Brian instead watching in front of the Griffins.
