And now here's something I wrote on the same night I finished the above:

Spoiler for Party Time:

Hayate looked at her empty living room with a sense of satisfaction. All of her worldly possessions had been boxed up and sent off world to her new place of residence on Mid Childa.

It was not lightly that she made her decision to leave her home world behind. But her future did not belong in this place.

Clad in her middle school uniform, she made her final walk to school. After the graduation ceremony today she would be off to begin the first step in what she hoped would be a successful career as a full time member of the Time Space Administration Bureau.

"Hayate-chan!"

Outside the school gates she was greeted by her four best friends. After today she wouldn't be able to see them very often but they promised to mail each other every day. Nanoha, Fate, Suzuka, and Alisa still had high school ahead of them so all five of them were sure to be very busy in the coming years.

The ceremony finished on schedule and they were all middle school students no more. The gang decided to meet up behind the school before heading out.

"Are you sure you have to leave right away, Hayate-chan?" Nanoha asked. "There's still the party at the Midori-ya after this."

"I'm sure mom could delay your pick up," Fate said.

"Well..." Hayate said.

"You owe us that much for running off by yourself and leaving the rest of us behind," Alisa said with a playful jab of her elbow.

Hayate laughed. "Sounds like I don't have much of a choice."

"Before that, though..." Suzuka began to rummage through her school bag. "I want to do a charm with you guys."

"A charm?" Fate asked.

"You believe that kind of thing?" Alisa laughed. "Well, I suppose when you consider the company we keep..."

Suzuka continued. "This is a friendship charm that will make sure we'll always be friends no matter how far apart we are. It may only be Hayate right now but I'm sure Nanoha and Fate won't be far behind, so..."

"Sure, lets do it," Nanoha said. "I think we'd be fine even without it but why not?"

From her bag, Suzuka withdrew a piece of paper cut into the shape of a person.

"It's called Sachiko of Happiness!"

Raise your hand if you get it.

XD pull up all Nanoha characters xD
