Code Geass: Painful Memories

Geass, the power bestowed upon humanity, it is a curse and a blessing. The Geass Order, a secretive society of researchers, study and harvest this power . . . bending history with its allure. Within the ranks of The Geass Order, there are many interesting men and women. One particular individual is Incognito, a alias as with other Order members; he held the title of Head of the Geass User Producing Facility. Incognito was a unrivaled scientific genius with a deep admiration for The Order's current leader, C.C. C.C however gave little notice to Incognito's many achievements and successes, and thus driving him to have a obsession of pleasing her. It was that obsession that led him to go beyond that of human rights and break the law of the Order. When it became time for his work to pay off, all that were present were shocked to see his creation- a human fused with the origin of Geass's power in its most pure state. These humanoid caricatures, deemed abominations of everything that is humane were executed and Incognito, after consideration was put in for his achievements, was banished, instead of execution like those under his direct command by the one person he had ever tried to impress, C.C.

However, rather than face execution, a researcher named Jiro and his love fled the Order and went into hiding. For seven years, they constantly feared that the might of the Order would come down on them, however even in such dark times their love for each other conquered that fear. Jiro's beloved gave birth to a newborn baby, however it was by cruel fate that the Order's top executioner squads surrounded their hideout. The executioners, told to kill all potential witnesses did just so until Jiro, gave himself up so that his lover and offspring could escape into the current war zone of Japan and the Britannian Army. The execution squad, by orders, did not follow them and the widow and her child escaped into the remains of Japan, days before their surrender.

After the 17th Prince of Britannia, Lelouch vi Britannia's mother Marianne vi Britannia was assassinated at her home, which caused his sister Nunnally vi Britannia to be both crippled and blind, confronted his father 98th Emperor of Britannia, Charles zi Britannia on his apparent ignorance of her death he and his sister were exiled to Japan as political prisoners prior to the invasion of Japan.

On a global scale, those events are minute and unimportant. The Holy Empire of Britannia, a empire in control of over 1/3 of the world and expanding, declares war on Japan in hopes of taking control of its massive sakuradite deposits in Mount Fuji. Sakuradite was used to enhance the empire's newest weapons, humanoid war machines, Knightmare Frames. These new generation weapon easily dominated Japan's defenses, leading to the surrender of the Japanese in one month. Japan was stripped of it's status as a nation, the citizens lost all of their rights and the nation was renamed Area 11.

The once prideful and respected nation of Japan, now Area 11, still fights back their oppressors. Throughout Japan there are pockets of resistant forces trying to take back Japan, all but futile efforts. Area 11 is in need of a miracle . . .
