Code Geass: The White Devil
Act 2: The Titans
Stage 8: The Devil of Yokosuka
Black Knights POV
The Black Knights had met with Katase on the tanker. Just a few hours before the Britannians could begin their Operation, which was Leaked to them by a Britannian who goes by the Name Diethard Reid, The man Zero saw at his rescue attempt with Suzaku Kururugi. The Black knights let him in. Nunnally; who had recently joined their Ranks was with them as well. When they met Katase, they were in the Cabins of the tanker.
"I want you to take Todoh and the 4 Holy swords with you in your ranks." Katase said.
Zero, Kallen, Naoto, and Nunnally were in complete shock.
"Wait, back up a second." Naoto replied. "Our my ears clogged?"
"You heard me right." Katase said. "Take the 4 Holy swords and Todoh with you into the Black Knights."
Zero looked at Nunnally, Naoto, and Kallen who were just as surprised as Zero was. They were not expecting something like this. Zero thought that they just wanted him to take the The Miracle Worker and his 4 Holy swords with him. Now that he knows that what Katase actually meant was to have Todoh and the 4 Holy Swords to intergrated into Black Knights was that big of a shock to him. Zero sighed and looked at the General.
"Don't you think this is a little one-sided?" Nunnally said. "I mean don't you think we should let them have that decision?"
"Yeah she's got a point." Kallen said. "I mean why would you have someone so loyal that they would even go to the depths of hell itself, to simply join the Black Knights without their consent?"
"Well I tried persuading him to join the Black Knights, He refused." Katase said.
"I don't think he likes the Idea of following anyone but you," Zero said.
"Well it's as if you know him well." Katase said. "Heck, it's almost as if the 2 of you met."
"Well it really is easy when you know someone with the mindset of Kyoshiro Todoh." Zero said.
"Hmph. Guess so." Katase said with a smile.
"But why? Why make that kind of request with us?" Nunnally asks.
"Because of my poor leadership, we suffered a huge loss at Narita." Katase says as he and the remnants of the JLF looked and felt ashamed.
"I lost my edge these past years, depending on Todoh and my men. That inevitably caused the JLF, the largest insurgency group in Area 11 to become nothing but potato chips to the Britannians. I failed as a leader when I let Kusakabe act on his own." Katase said.
"Well I've seen Tamaki walk out on me, but I know he won't pull a stunt like that. Not when he knows better not to." Naoto said. "Especially even if he pulls it off, he'd still get killed for it."
"Well now that I lost the will to fight Britannia, I'm fleeing to the Chinese Federation." Katase said. "I now know that full well that because of you, the Japanese have hope. Many of the resistance cells support you in almost every part of Japan itself, even some of the Britannians give you their support. You and the Black Knights definitely can take on Britannia head-on. You have the resistance cells and even other nations helping you and more and more are joining you." Katase said with amazement. "If there's anyone that can free Japan, It's you Zero. I'm sure Todoh and the 4 Holy Swords will come around eventually."
Kallen, Nunnally, and Naoto were amazed at what Katase said.
"We'll see what they think," Zero said. "I'll let him and the 4 Holy Swords decide on their own."
"Thank you. Be sure to tell Todoh. Please free Japan." Katase said.
Naoto's phone rang. He answered the phone.
"Yeah…. Ok….. Thanks for the Heads up." Naoto says as he puts his phone away.
"Its Ohgi." Naoto said. "Cornelia will be here any moment."
And after saying their goodbyes, the Black Knights leave the ship.
Shiro POV
I was at the docks, i was given orders to observe and gather what I could find, I had Isaac record the entire conversation.
"Done. got it all recorded." I heard my Partner said.
"Good. let's contact the Commander. Send the recording." I said to my partner as I get my communication device, "The Whistle" Huey called it. (AN: actually its the Codec from Metal Gear.)
The Whistle beeped 4 times.
"Good job. We have the recording, we'll send the Strike over along with a small force of Walkers and Engrams. Head to the marker on your partner's map." Wolfsheim said to me.
"Understood. Over and out." I say to the commander before the he hangs up.
"Well don't want to be late for tonight's show." my partner said as I head down to the waypoint on the map my partner has.
Britannia POV
The forces under Cornelia's command were already at their posts. Darlton was going to speak to Kururugi. They were in their pilot uniforms. Both were standing close to the ASEEC Trailer.
"The Viceroy may not like the use numbers as a way of getting help," Darlton said. "But I say 'we use every man we can get.' Even if he is the son of the Last Prime Minister."
Suzaku nodded.
"The target is none other than General Katase. We grab him, it's all over for the JLF. The Royal Marines will handle the capture, you will be covering their backs, only the target is allowed to live. The rest are to be eliminated." Darlton explains.
"Wait, that's it?" Suzaku said.
"I know it's not easy when it comes to fighting your own people, but remember you have a job to do. No one but the target is to live." Darlton said.
Suzaku didn't want to be reminded about that he thought joining the military was to save lives, not spilling the blood of his own fellow Japanese.
"Prove your loyalty to Britannia, Warrant Officer Kururugi," Darlton said with a smile. "This is your chance to move up in the world. Don't throw it away." Darlton said.
"Yes my lord." Suzaku responded.
Darlton left as Lloyd walked and stood next to Suzaku.
"Well now, will you prove your loyalty?" Lloyd said, "Show them you're not incompetent. This operation is testing you."
Suzaku clenched his fist and teeth.
Lelouch POV
"If Todoh-sensei joins us," I said as I thought back on the man who taught me. "That would be nice."
Kallen came in from the door. We had a long conversation on how I knew about Todoh. Oh how I missed those days.
"I see," Kallen said as she got a bit closer to me.
"Kallen?" I said.
"It's nothing really." she said as she averted her eyes. "After hearing what you and Nunnally went through, I admire you."
"Oh," I said as Kallen smiled again. "Thank you Kallen."
"Zero, everything's set." I heard Naoto's voice.
"Understood then we begin." I said. "The only thing that needs to get done is that the JLF and Katase escape."
Me and Kallen get to our Knightmares.
"I'm counting on you." I said to Kallen.
"I won't let you down." she said to me.
"I know you won't." I said.
"I'll wait for your signal in the Guren." she says to me.
Now it's time I make Cornelia suffer defeat again. For real this time.
Normal POV
The Royal Marines in their Portman Knightmare Frames were on standby waiting on Princess Cornelia's orders. Cornelia stood in front of her Knightmare Frame and Guilford and Darlton are with her.
"We are ready to begin, Your Highness." Darlton said.
"Alright then," Cornelia said as she raised her arm as a signal, "Begin the Operation!"
The Royal Marines headed out going underwater to attack the freighter. The Lancelot, the Club and some Sutherland Knightmare Frames moved out. The Portmans fired at the wall and kept advancing upon smashing right through it. They had no idea that they are walking into a trap.
The Lancelot, the Club and the Sutherland Knightmare Frames arrived at the marked waypoint. The Knightmares point their rifles at the Freighter.
"This is nothing but a slaughter." Suzaku said with a sad expression.
"I know," Rai said, "if only there was another time where we did not have to slaughter people."
"Warrant Officer Kururugi," Cecile contacted, "Warrant Officer Rai,"
"Yes," Rai said.
"Uh yes," Suzaku responded.
"I know this is unsettling," Cecile said, "but remember that you are a soldier. Please obey your orders. Even if they seem wrong."
"Yes ma'am, I understand." Suzaku said.
"Ok then." Rai said
There was nothing on the sensors. Just nothing.
"Either this is a trap, or they intend to fight the Marines inside the ship." one of the soldiers reported.
"I just assumed that no one was on the ship." another soldier said.
"Or they just don't want to go out and look as if they know we're here already." another soldier says.
"What if they were surrendering?" Suzaku said.
"Do YOU see a white flag?" Rai said.
The Freighter began to move.
"See? even if there was one, they tried to escape anyways." one of the other soldiers said.
"Quit questioning your orders, carry them out." The commanding officers said.
Meanwhile, Ohgi and Diethard are on the tower with their Binoculars.
"Freighter's moving. Nunnally, are you ready?" Ohgi said.
"Ready." Nunnally responded.
'I just hope Zero isn't an Idealist.' Diethard thought.
The Marines boarded the ship. The Blue Knights were also prepping to make a move. They were in a submersible landing craft.
"So when do we move?" one of the Blue Knights asked.
"As soon as CP gives the order, we move out." Shiro said.
The Marines looked for any sign of the crew on the deck.
"Guess we just waltz on in from here I guess." one of the Marines said.
Unknowingly to the Marines, the Blue Knights had men with Anti-Knightmare Rifles.
"Ready, Aim…." one of the leading Blue Knights said, "FIRE!"
Soon the Anti-Knightmare Rifles fired at the Marines. One of them got hit in the back.
"What the-?!" a Marine said before he got picked off by a Slash Harken and fell over board. 2 knightmare frames came out. It was the Guren MK.2 and Zero's Burai.
"Its….. The enemy!" one of the Marines said in shock.
"Wait who?" Rai said as a huge Landing craft came about. "Wait what's that?"
The Landing craft lands and Knightmares of the Blue Knights disembark, some of them being Walkers.
"Not these guys again." Rai said.
Another Landing Craft came about. This one had the Strike, Alphonse and Raikou. They disembark with the others.
Sooner or later, more landing craft showed up, it was the Black Knights.
"Zero?! Here and now?!" Cornelia said.
"Black Knights!" Zero shouts, "commence the attack! Save the JLF!"
"Naoto!" Nunnally said inside the Ganymede Nemo.
"Right!" Naoto said inside the Pre-Gekka Test type as it leaped out of the ship.
Another Freighter moved out and was out of site as Cornelia's forces our being occupied by the Blue and Black Knights.
AN: Got a lot of work ahead of me. oh and I would love some fan art if you would. I don't care what program you use, just as long as it looks good, I'll be pleased because now I have a Deviantart!
Walker: They're like the Liverpool, except they're 2 types. The smaller ones have 4 legs, the larger ones have 2 feet.
