A One Girl Revolution
Chapter Three: Not The Traditional Girl
Nina held no knowledge that her friend Ryuen was in this same world until a guard came running in;
"Saihitei-sama! Word has it on the street that Koutu has their Miko as well, and it's not the traditional girl; it's a young man!"
Nina's mind eye turned instantly to Ryuen and to his cheeky smile and his deep gray green eyes.
"No! It can't be! He can't be here! I need to see for myself if he's here!"
"He, who?" Hotohori-sama asked.
"My best friend, I don't want him here, he shouldn't be here! Please I NEED to go to Koutu to see if it's him!"
"Nina-san I don't think it's a good idea that you go anywhere alone. You are the Suzaku no Miko remember?"
"Your Majesty, with all due respect I'll go with Nina to see her friend."
"Lady Kourin! Thank you so mu-"
"It's Nuriko." A brief flash of red light left Hotohori and Nina standing there with mouths wide open. Nuriko laughed at the two because they looked so funny; mouths wide open and all. (A/N: well I thought it was funny)
Nina recovered first and exclaimed, "Alright two down and five to go!" When nobody seemed to share her enthusiasm she blushed and broke the awkward silence by thanking Nuriko, "Thank you, Nuriko for coming with me!"
Nina looked over at Hotohori and grinned; "Can I go see my friend now that Nuriko is coming with me?" Nina stuck out her tongue to let him know that she was just teasing.
"Well as long as Nuriko is going to go with you then you should be fine." Hotohori said giving her a meaniful look.
"I'll be fine, trust me." Nina said giving Hotohori a warm smile.
"Well, then don't you think we should go get ready for the trip Nee- chan?" Nuriko said breaking up the love stare fest.
"Yeah sure Kouri-cha- I mean Nuriko."
"You can still call me Kouri-chan if you want Nee. It doesn't matter to me. Sorry Hotohori-sama, but we have to go get ready for the trip."
"But it can wait until tomorrow, can't it?" Hotohori said as his eyes were glued to Nina's blue green ones.
"No, it has to be NOW Hotohori-sama," Nuriko said ushering Nina out of the room.
*************************************************
After bidding Hotohori farewell Nuriko and Nina set off for Koutu's palace. Their plan was to pretend to want to be concubines for the 'handsome new miko' they've been hearing about and gain access to the palace and Ryuen.
On one of their overnight stops under the stars they practiced what they would say to the guards.
"We were wondering if the miko could use our services, " Nina said from behind her fan, trying to keep a straight face. It wasn't helping that Nuriko was making faces and laughing. Nina did a clumsy twirl and fell on her ass and giggled. Nurkio held out her hand to Nina to help her up.
"There's something you should know Nina." Nuriko said looking in earnestly into her eyes.
Nina instantly sobered up and looked up at Nuriko; her eyes filled with concern; "What is it, Kouri-chan?"
"Before you spend the night with me, I just want you to know..that I'm a male. I dress up in drag because it helps me to keep my sister's memory alive in my heart."
Nuriko turned away from Nina, expecting hate and misunderstanding, but he(she?) got the complete opposite. Nina put her arms around Nuriko and hugged him(her?) from behind. "I think that's sweet; how did you end up here in the emperor's harlem?"
"My family banished me from ever coming back. So the only place for me to go, other than the street was here." Nuriko pulled away from Nina's embrace on him(her?) and started getting ready for sleep. Nina fell silent and followed Nuriko's lead.
**********************************
The next morning Nuriko was all smiles as he(she?) helped Nina with her costume; tying her sash and applying her makeup. Nuriko was already made up and dressed. As Nuriko finished lining Nina's lips he(she?) asked; "Fans ready?" Nina smiled and opened hers, hiding her face, smiling coyly. Nuriko took that as a yes. They packed up their camp and were on their way.
************************************
By about midafternoon the women had reached the palace gates. "Remember to act coy." Nuriko whispered to Nina as they approached the dozing guard.
"Hey handsome, how are you today?" Nuriko asked in between a coo and a purr. The guard jumped up and looked around nervously.
"There ain't nobody here but us." Nina smiled coyly; getting into the act. Nuriko sent Nina a wink over the top of her fan.
"We heard that the Miko was lonely and could use our services."
The guard stammered and moved out of their way; "G-g-oo down this hall and to the right."
The girls blew the guard a kiss and walked calmly away until out of sight. Then they dropped the fans and started running towards Ryuen's room.
***************************************
In another part of the palace, Nakago was pacing around in his room. He suddenly stopped and he muttered "Suzaku." He started towards the door and swiftly walked towards Ryuen's room.
*************************************
The girls walked past an open room with clothes strewn everywhere. Nina saw it out of the corner of her eye. "This has got to be his room; he's the messiest guy I know;" she shook her head in thought of his room. Nina had taken one step into Ryuen's room when a cold voice said; "Looking for this?"
Nina and Nuriko turned to see a blue-eyed, blonde hair man holding Ryuen by the neck.
"Ryu-" Nina gasped, but Nakago sent the first chi-blast towards Nina. ******************************************
