Chapter 4: Mirror, Mirror on the Wall: Gino Learns to Knock

Suzaku groaned as she stared at her mirror. This was a complete and utter nightmare. Suzaku had just arrived in Area 11 and was set to return Ashford Academy in a couple of weeks after he got settled in a the base. Of course just after he had arrived they got a call that the Black Knights were spotted in the area of one of the Knightmare manufacturing plants. Unwilling to let a single change of letting Zero get away he had jumped into the Lancelot and raced to the location. After a short a battle in which he took out four of the Knights and two others retreated to protect their injured comrades Suzaku was left to fight against the Kallen and Zero.

Just when he was about to finish off Kallen and go after Zero a mysterious black field appeared out of nowhere and the last thing Suzaku remembered before passing out was his entire body felt like it was burning. Finally he woke up to find he had been turned into a she. If things couldn't get any worse Cecile had told him that Gino and Anya were on their way to Area 11 and there was zero chance of them not finding out about this. God he could only hope that Anya didn't show any of the pictures to the rest of the Knights of the Rounds.

And he couldn't even find out if Lelouch was affected or not because he and Rolo were on vacation for the next to two weeks because of spring break and were staying beach house somewhere. He couldn't even be sure if Lelouch was using this as chance to escape from the spies because it was something he had done before with Nunnally and plans for the trip were set up weeks before Zero had made his reappearance. Also Rolo had made several reports and so far all they had done was hang out at the beach and go out to eat. The two spies that had been sent to follow them had given similar reports.

Shaking the thoughts from her head Suzaku looked at the mirror again and began to study her new appearance. Her hair had grown several inches so it rested just passed her shoulders and she had lost several inches in height. Her stomach was flat and hips were small and her chest had grown c-cup breasts. Though she lacked the muscle she had once held as a man her body was still well sculpted and fit. Her face hadn't changed much other then her eyes becoming softer looking and her cheeks becoming less angular. A knock at the door of the bathroom forced her attention from mirror once more.

"Suzaku I found some clothes of mine that I think will fit," Cecile explained as she opened the door slightly to hand Suzaku the clothes.

"Thank you, Miss Cecile. I think I'm going to take a shower first. I should be out in about fifteen minutes," Suzaku stated as she grabbed the clothes.

"There is no rush Sir Gino and Lady Anya aren't set to arrive for a few hours so you have some time to prepare," Cecile explained, "Oh, and before I forget I want you come over later tonight. We don't know how long this could last before we can find a way to change you back. So I think it best that we go over so issues that you will probably have to deal with in the future just so you are ready."

Suzaku pulled face when she realized what kind issues Cecile was talking about and groaned, "Right."

"Don't worry Suzaku just think of it as special training for an undercover mission like when you were still a foot soldier," Cecile comforted before she tried turn the broken lock on the door, "We really need to get this lock fixed. Oh, well everyone knows it broken anyway and should knock."

Suzaku just signed as Cecile finally left and she got undressed and hopped into the shower.

A Little While Later

Lloyd held an ice pack to his groin as he studied the DNA sample that he had collected from Suzaku. It didn't make any sense. How could this bizarre transformation that basically changed Suzaku genetic code right down to the cellular leave even be possible. Even people who went through advance sex change operations and hormone therapy couldn't completely change their genetic make up completely from their original gender. If he wasn't a man of science he would say that the chance was almost supernatural. But while he may be a bit crazy he wouldn't believe in such nonsense unless give complete proof of it existence. Although, what had happen to Suzaku had definitely pushed him closer to the line of belief.

Suddenly a door slammed open and tall young man walked and shouted, "Hello Anyone Home!

Lloyd signed and turned around and said, "Ah Sir Gino, Lady Anya you have arrive early I see.

"Yeah, caught an earlier flight to surprise Suzaku right Anya!" Gino exclaimed loudly down at the petite pinkette.

"So noisy," Anya mumbled as she started taking pictures of the various machines.

Gino just shrugged at the girl's indifference and turned his attention back to Lloyd and asked, "Hey you got a bathroom we could use?"

"Right down the hall to your left. It the furthest door on the right side" Lloyd absent mindedly stated as he turned back to his computer.

"Thanks," Gino replied before heading down the hall with Anya right behind him.

Cecile walked into lab and asked, "What was all that noise just now?"

"Suzaku's little Knights of Rounds friends arrived earlier then expected it seems," Lloyd explained his attention still on the computer screen.

"Oh, well where are they now?" Cecile questioned when she didn't see either of the Knights.

"They just went to the restroom."

"What! But Suzaku is still-"

"AAAAHHHHH!" Suzaku scream echoed through out the Lab as Gino and Anya came running down the hall.

With his face beet red Gino mumbled, "Guess I should have knocked."

Anya nodded and said "Memory captured."
