Code Geass: Nunnally on the Insurrection

Chapter Nineteen: Nemo and the Black Knights Appreciation Day Two

Ohgi studied the documents, the older man doing his best not to burst out swearing. There were many advantages to the 'cell' structure that the Japanese resistance ha taken on since Nemo arrived. Their security was better, they had less concerns with possible betrayal and they could maintain what was called 'need to know.'

Sadly there were downsides too. The information Ohgi just got had been passed to a cell weeks ago, but it had taken a long, roundabout route to reach him. And now he had... days, maybe, to make a decision about what to do about a possible invasion of Japan. By China, of all people.

SUPPOSEDLY they were going to 'liberate' the country from Britannia, but Ohgi had his doubts about that. The Chinese Federation had always looked towards Japan longingly, and he really didn't think they'd let go once they had a hold of the country. And that was even assuming they could beat the occupying forces of Britannia.

Todo Kyoshiro scowled as the famous strategist stood by Ohgi's side, also studying the data. "If they had stood with Japan when we were invaded..." he muttered irritably.

"If wishes were horses," Ohgi shrugged, though he was sympathetic to the older man's frustration. If China had manned up in the first place, they might not be in this mess. He looked up at Todo as he asked, "Would it have a chance of working?"

Todo looked torn. "It... well, it would be a very slim chance," he conceded reluctantly. He thought about it, "The Chinese Federation would have to commit a significant number of their forces to assist us, which would weaken their boarders on Britannian controlled Areas."

"They'd have to count on Charles being distracted enough by our rebelling to not attack," Ohgi noted quietly.

"And even if Charles did not seize the chance, his sons and daughters would," Todo sighed, "and China would have to pull it's forces to reinforce it's boarders."

"Which would leave us hosed," Ohgi realized.

"I suspect the Chinese Federation is not serious in helping us free Japan," Todo admitted, "this is more a political move to embarrass and weaken Britannia."

"Which I would be all for backing if they weren't using us," Ohgi said dryly. "I'll run it by Nemo, but I suspect she'll also say no."

"I suspect you'll have problems contacting her today," Todo noted, looking amused for the first time since the conversation started.

"Huh?" Ogi blinked then realized what he meant. "Oh, the school festival thing. Yeah, I guess she's a bit distracted today isn't she?"

"Probably," Todo agreed.

"Well, it can wait for tomorrow, probably," Ohgi said.

There was something very very strange about walking across campus in a Black Knight uniform, Princess Euphemia found. Still, by letting her hair down then braiding it and adding the required sunglasses, she was able to go pretty much undercover. Well, other than the officer who was shadowing her, also in disguise.

"This is a very bad idea, ma'am," Villetta Nu noted as the silver/blue haired woman followed close behind. Like Euphemia she was wearing a Black Knight costume, though in her case it was unbuttoned on the front to show off her... assets.

"No, it isn't," Euphemia shook her head, "I'm surrounded by loyal Britannians, Villetta. In some ways this is safer than almost anywhere else in Area 11."

"Surrounded by fans of the rebel Nemo?" Villetta asked dryly.

"There is some irony there, yes," Euphemia conceded as they walked.

The campus was a riot of color as the 'Nemo festival' continued around them. There were hundreds of students all in the stylized black uniforms, balloons and decorations, stands selling everything from t-shirts to traditional foods and displays for various games and events. The clubs in the school were out in force, including some Euphemia had never head of.

"Male enticement club?" Euphemia read one banner bemusedly.

"Your sister, not to mention your parents, would be very upset if I let you go in there," Villetta decided as she steered Euphemia away.

"Awww," Euphemia pouted.

"Besides, with that pout you don't NEED help," Villetta muttered, probably not intending for Euphemia to hear her.

That made Euphemia smile a bit. They passed another group of students, the boys of which were obviously distracted by Villetta's plunging neckline. The girls were clearly annoyed at that, and started giving the boys a talking to as soon as they moved on.

Euphemia had to ask, "Why are you wearing your top like that?"

"A distraction," Villetta answered her promptly, "anyone looking will not remember my face or yours, ma'am."

"I...," Euphemia blinked as she realized she was probably right, "I hadn't thought of that."

"Let's get you something to eat, ma'am," Villetta suggested, "then if you wish we can look for your friends."

"Right," Euphemia agreed.

Euphemia was still trying to decide what to make of her new guard. Villetta had appeared not long after the Narita incident, assigned to her by Cornelia. Well, by Jeremiah, actually, but by her sister through him. She had assumed the older woman was some sort of spy, but she didn't act to restrain her at all. Instead she had quietly made suggestions helping Euphemia get out safely from her other guards, as well as taking steps to keep her safe.

They ended up in a Japanese style cafe, and ate a fast but filling lunch. She was a bit surprised to see Villetta scarf her food down, she didn't seem the type to rush eating. It was probably due to her being on bodyguard duty?

They went out of the tent just as a brown haired man in a Black Knight uniform hurried up. Villetta tensed for a moment, then seemed to recognize him. "Kururugi," she nodded curtly.

"Suzaku!" Euphemia beamed. She looked him over as she added, "I think black and silver flatters you."

Suzaku blushed charmingly, and Euphemia hid a smile. Despite having a background in politics and, in a way, being almost nobility in Japan, he was still charmingly shy. Teasing him was a pleasure, and she found herself liking him a lot.

"Euphemia," Suzaku said, "you look very nice." He hurried as he added, "Did you tell Nunnally that you were coming? She didn't tell me."

"It was sort of a impulse thing," Euphemia admitted, "once I heard about the event I had to come." She smiled and added, "Nemo did save my life, after all."

"At the JLF hostage taking, yeah," Suzaku conceded with a sigh.

Nearby Villetta was keeping a wary look out, watching the crowds and subtly warning people off. She was listening in too, probably, but not paying too much attention, knowing it was none of her business.

"Is Nunnally busy?" Euphemia asked curiously, "I wouldn't mind seeing her today too."

"She's pretty busy running things today," Suzaku admitted, "but I'm sure she'll make some time for you."

"Ah! Oh!" Nina Einstein moaned in pleasure as hands stroked her breasts through the uniform jacket, a wicked mouth nibbling at her neck. They were in a store room not far from the stage where the pizza making event was planned, and the dim light made it hard to see what was going on.

"Hmm," Milly Ashford purred as the taller, bosomy woman licked Nina's neck, gently tweaking hard nipples through the cloth. She enjoyed sneaking off for a bit of descrete making out, and she especially enjoyed doing it where she could get caught.

"Oh god Milly," Nina panted.

It was so kinky, doing it someplace like this where they could easily be caught. And, honestly, there was also something erotic about doing this dressed in the replica Black Knight uniforms too. She could almost imagine she was being ravaged by Nemo... or that she was the one ravaging Nemo. Either way, it was kinky and thrilling.

"I should pull down your panties and take you right now," Milly growled into Nina's ear, "I bet I could get you off before we're due out there..."

"Ah!" Nina nearly creamed her panties at the thought, but then her common sense had to intrude. "No, we can't," she said respectfully, pushing Milly away weakly.

Milly pulled away, sighing a bit as she admitted, "I nearly got carried away." She tidied Nina's uniform as she added thoughtfully, "You're such a good girl... I think that's why I like trying to make you lose control."

"Milly," Nina blushed as she tidied Milly's clothes too.

"Do I look okay?" Milly asked as they were about to leave the little room.

"You look wonderful," Nina said honestly.

Milly grinned, "Thank you. Now come on, we need to make sure nothing's gone wrong."

"Which it will," Nina agreed, knowing how most big events at this school went.

Milly stuck her tongue out at Nina then they hurried outside.

The school was jammed full of students and guests, something that was making Milly happy. The booths for different clubs were surrounded, the stages where events were going on were packed, and everyone looked like they were having a good time. It was a lively party, which Milly loved, but even better it was exposing Britannians to Japanese culture, mixed in with the Nemo celebration. She wasn't innocent enough to assume it would instantly end prejudice between the two groups, but she hoped it would help a bit.

"Milly!" Kallen complained as the redhead asked, "Where were you?"

"Having some quality time with my girlfriend," Milly shrugged.

Nina went bright red. "Milly!" she hissed.

Kallen just rolled her eyes. "Suzaku's on his way, he tells me, but he has a unexpected guest, so he may be a bit delayed," she said.

"I can stall if needed," Milly said. "Is the Knightmare Frame ready? I still want to see if we can use it to make the world's largest pizza."

"This is gonna go down in flames," Kallen predicted.

"Maybe but it'll be entertaining when it happens," Milly shrugged.
