Location: In the Netherrealm, thinking who to betray next...
Chapter 46
Vatican Knights
Spoiler for Evil beasts:
Abomination was laughing, holding by their skin the 3 Belceboos who were jelling and inpacient for attack us, I pulled out my gun, but then I saw that the canon was broken, probably by the fall I had, I throued it away
"Karil, pass me your gun!"
"I... I don't reach it..."
"Dam..." I grabed my axe, Okay Vivio, 3 Belceboos, you can deal with them I thouhg
"Ha, ah!!! Feest on their flesh my dears!" Abomination said at the time he released the undead dogs, the belceboos ran at me, I swinged my axe anddecapitated one, the other jumped over me, I launched it away, the other was going to beat my leg but I quickly put my Axe in his way
I jumped away, the 2 Belceboos who still reamined looked at me, then they charged again, I kicked one away and impale my axe in the head of the other, two down, one left
The last Belcebbo loked quite furius, he charged again against me, I jumped against him and kicked her head, breaking his neck, I must confess, that feeled good
"Got it!" Karil finally cutted therope who was holding her neck, she falled and I ran at here
"Are you allright?" I asked
"Well.... cats always land over their feets, I landed over my butt" I helped her to got up
"AGHHHHHH!!!!" Abomination screamed seing that I had defeated his "pets", then he looked at us and charged swinging the blades attached to his arms
I blocked his hits with my Axe, and grabed Karil by her hand
"RUN!!!" I told her, we started to run away from Abomination, he was chasing us, I meerly was able to see in those dark corridors, pulling Karil from her hand, I keeped runing, unaware of wath was in front of me
In our run, I founded a glass bottle of Alchol, well, that trick worked for me against the son of Beatriz and against Ella, I grabbed it and with a pice of my dress, I imporobisated again a bomb, I turned it on with a match and launched it agains Abomination
The demon was envolved by a ball of fire, I though I had killed him, but by my surprise, he jumped out of the ball of fire withouth a scratch, seing that that not worked, we keeped our run
We gone upstairs until we reached the secon floor, in this floor I founded an open room, without thinking it twice we gone in and closed the door behind us, we heared that Abomination passed still going up, thinking that we were still going upstairs
"I think we lost him" I said
"Holly.... Vivio!!!" Karil screamed me pointing at the back of the room, when I turned, we saw a man traped in some kind of Machine who was electrocutating him
"A---A---A---U---U---G---H---" He was screaming, I inmediatly ran at him and tried to release him from the machine, but when I touched the artifact, I feelt that it Burned my hand, I jumped back, at this point I saw the number marked in the forehead of the man "18" He was the gosth of Nanoha's victim 18
I raised my head and saw in the other side of the machine little Nanoha, she was looking at the window, I spoke to her but she didn't respond and only pointed at the window
"Z-Z-Z-A-A-A-A-----K-K-KID?----T-T-T-THAT'S-----NOT---A--A-KID----THAT'S----T---T---TH----W---W--WHI---WHITE---DEVIL!!!" The man was meerly able to said that after disapearing and little Nanoha with him, I aproached to the window and saw what Little Nanoha was pointing.... the edifice of Pediatry
I can't really see the angsting/afair working myself, though that is mostly because I refuse to see it. After all, not only is Chrono married, but he also has two kids. Him leaving Amy means him abandoning his kids, which draws huge red flaring signs of Does Not Compute! with me.
Well, no, under normal circumstances, it definitely does NOT compute but if people absolutely wanted to force a situation... (And what I am saying... I'm supposed to be a ChronoxAmy fan!)
Random: And his kids are cute. (At least, they SEEM to be... From what little we know of them... )

She was late.
The thought came over my head mind again, looking at the clock. My hands were almost shaking, a feel of adrenaline coursing through me. My head was filled with doubts and a small fear that I couldn't place.
I was worried about her.
It started small at first, a weird feeling in the top of my spine. It grew quickly, though, and soon I was pacing. Was it my mark? That first night we met... I decided not to bite her but instead drew a symbol on her neck with my own blood... A mark, a warning to others, a tracer that allowed me to find her.
That was it!
"Erio, I'm going for a walk." I shouted to the boy I was taking care of. He waved over his shoulder, eyes focused on the at-home studies he was currently doing.
I left my loft quickly, running down the small hallway and to the elevator. I have only marked a few people in my life, but they never lasted long. It was more of a "I can't drink now so I'll find you later" and a one-time- only deal. To have Nanoha make me this nervous could only mean that she was currently having a small panic attack.
The doors opened and I ran through the lobby. The sidewalk hit my boots and I stopped holding back. My speed was something that I never took for granted. I was fast, very fast.
Jumping up, I landed on top of a building and leapt a few more times to start making a bee-line for the scent of myself placed on Nanoha. It was close...
I saw her. Back pressed against the wall, sitting down with wide eyes and gasping breath. She was scared, and I felt every panicked thump of her heart pulsate through me. My mark was in danger, my donor was threatened.
My girlfriend was in trouble.
I jumped down quickly, landing on a lower building and eyes going wide as a girl knelt in front of Nanoha, speaking to her. An oxygen mask was placed over my friend's mouth and white mist filled it.
Then the girl struck Nanoha hard in the stomach, making her inhale it.
The ground cracked as I landed, the alleyway illuminating as my eyes glowed yellow. Nanoha's body slumped forward slowly and I ignited my scythe.
Four females and a wolf turned to look at me as I exhaled slowly, fangs exposed and snarling.
"Kill her." The one who punched Nanoha said softly...
...And they lunged for me as I shot forward, ready to strike.

Blood of the Mother, Chapter One: “First Contact”
Interdimensional Space, TSAB Warship Claudia, December 28th, 1340 Mid-Childian Time
Enforcer Fate T. Harlaown frowned at her monitor’s output screen and tried to figure out where her calculations were going wrong. As the ship’s only (and newly assigned) enforcer, she was responsible for keeping careful track of all the magical energy readings that the ship gathered on its journey across the universe. So far, this had been the most boring aspect of her job, as nothing had ever really come from these readings, but now, however, she could not get her math to add up. Sighing loudly, Fate keyed in the commands that would restart the calculation process, careful to control for any and all known variables that would possibly upset her data collection process.
She pushed her chair backwards and away from her workstation and stretched, her blond hair falling down her back and almost touching the floor as she did so. She checked her motion just before it touched, however, she didn’t want to waste more of the warship’s water on another shower so soon after a mission.
The monitor beeped, a new set of data appearing on the screen and a mechanical voice cut through the room, “Sir, are you sure that there is no error on your part with these calculations?”
Fate leaned forwards once more, clicking through several screens of data, “No, Bardiche. Nothing is off. We have a genuine power spike.” She spoke quietly, as though she was not truly accustomed to using her voice for anything other than giving orders. “Trace the power source; see if you can get a trace on the magical energy signature?”
Bardiche beeped and soon Fate’s monitor screen was filled with readouts. Her eyes widened as she looked at the data. “Precia… Testarossa?”

Although I kinda like it...
Spoiler for Vampire!Fate pt.5b:
The first clash of weapons sent a small wave through my hands from the force of it. The smallest of the fighters, who didn't appear to be older than twelve, was holding a large battle hammer that was quickly melting under the pulsating heat of my scythe. I powered Bardiche more, feeling the surge from my grip on the handle extend into the large yellow gem on my weapon's head. My blade pulsed, heaing the hammer blocking my strike to the point where molten metal dripped down it. The little girl jumped back and dropped her weapon, glaring at her seared hands.
I spun around to avoid a lash from their attack wolf and used my speed to grab it's neck and quickly pull upwards to bring it's body into an arch and slam it's skull onto the ground, sending small cracks out in the dirt. I was going to rip it's throat out but I had to move to avoid a blast of a type of energy I didn't know.
With a flip of my body I landed feet first against one of the walls of the alley and buried my fist into the brick, clinging onto it and glaring fiercely. Nanoha's body was below me, motionless, and I felt another surge of rage come from my chest.
She was so innocent, not even I could bite her without having her permission... and they dare to strike her!? "She's a human!" I yelled, ignoring the rasp in my voice as the inner demon in me started escaping my control. "She has nothing to do with this!"
The girl who hit her was still standing still, watching. "I heard rumors about you, but they said you were smarter than this." I narrowed my eyes at her, lips curling up and salaiva dripping own my teeth. "Look around you."
My eyes hit each of them in turn before I allowed myself to dart my eyes. At least six bodies were scattered around the alley that I hadn't noticed before. The one closest had his mouth open, fangs exposed. "we saved her," The woman with bright pink hair stated sternly at me. "You know the regulations, anyone who sees a paladin act must have their memory blurred. That's all we did."
Releasing the hold on my wall, I fell and crouched around Nanoha's body to inspect her. No bites, no bruises. I swallowed the feeling in my throat and repressed the voice whispering in my mind. "You struck her."
"She wouldn't inhale," The leader, I now realized, told me calmly. "I would never hurt a-"
"You have been!" I stood and yelled, my voice my own again. I brought up Bardiche and glared. "I thank you for saving her... but if you so much as touch this female again, I will skin you alive."
"Hayate." The pink one spoke again and the leader nodded. The female walked to one of the bodies and took out something that looked like a stake. With a thurst, she jammed it into the fallen man's chest and I watched the body explode into ashes.
"The hell is that?" I asked, watching the others dispose of the vampires.
"You don't need to know that," The small one spoke, finishing off another.
When the pink haired girl got close to me to kill the one I inspected earlier I flashed at her, sliding along the ground, and ripping the stake from her hand. Without stopping, I pushed up and ran to the side to run along the wall. The bricks cracked under my feet and I arrived at Nanoha again before anything could be done to her.
But I blocked an attack that came from my side.
"Signum," Hayate warned softly.
"My apologies, Leader." Signum sheathed her sword. The attack came so fast I was honestly amazed by it. Sniffing, I realized that I had a light sheen of gas misted on my side and I noticed that small sparks came from the blade when Signum sheathed it.
The smell of fire was strong and I noticed that some areas around me had recently been burned.
Burning straw, smoke filling my lungs, rope tearing into my bloody wrist, people yelling.
I bit back the memory and spat to rid my mouth of the flavor of gas that I inhaled. "Leave."
"Let's go, Vita, Shamal, Zafira." Signum turned her back and started walking. Although I could strike, I held back. I wasn't one to press a needless battle.
When I no longer sensed danger I crouched down to inspect Nanoha again. She seemed to have trouble breathing but I couldn't do anything about that. Gently I picked her up into my arms and looked at her face. A light ring was around her nose and mouth where the mask was pressed up against her and her skin was a little darker than the rest of her face.
I was infuriated again for a brief moment before calming down. I needed to get her home and into bed. I knew how the paladin gas worked. It would make her almost drunk and everything she did in the past few hours would be nothing but a foggy haze in her mind.
Her house wasn't too far away and I managed to get in after fishing keys from Nanoha's recovered backpack. I walked through her store and up the stairs to her bedroom.
Laying her on the bed, I noticed that her face was starting to get even redder, almost as if a rash had formed. To inspect further, I opened her mouth and looked down her throat. Her breathing was almost not there and her heartbeat was slowing. 'She's suffocating!'
I went into her backpack quickly, looking around to confirm my suspicions. I found what I was after and looked at Nanoha briefly before gripping the emergency needle container and slamming it on the girl's thigh. She flinched in her sleep but didn't move any further as the medicine seeped into her body.
'She's allergic to somethings... I guess the gas was too much for her.' To insure that she would be alright, I pricked my finger with one of my fangs and held it over her mouth to let a few drops fall.
Vampire blood was by means a miracle cure, in fact there were some diseases -like cancer- that it only made worse. However, I knew enough about it to know exactly what it was. My old master was right for hte most part: The things that make up a vampire's blood contain a highly reactive substance that speeds up the healing process and fights off anything not supposed to be there. I could heal woulds in a matter of hours, as well as fight off infections. Nanoha would be fine with this headstart.
Once she was taken care of I went into her bathroom to look for a medicine cabinet. I needed to replace her emergency care item that I just used in case she got in trouble later. I was a big believer in privacy so I felt a twinge of guilt in my heart when I started opening her drawers.
I did, however, find interesting things. She apparently waxed instead of shaving, and also uses an enamel building toothpaste. She preferred spray deodorant and two-in-one shampoo/conditioner. That stuff always made my head itch.
About to give up, I looked around and spotted a floating cabinet with a single door. The handle stuck lightly and in my annoyed state, I jerked it a little too hard and made some of the contents fall over and roll out onto the counter.
I stared for a long time, eyes scanning over the many different bottles of pills. Some I knew while others boggled my mind. Slowly I picked the bottles up and replaced them, not knowing what to think. The girl had problems.
I stopped by her bed after replacing the stolen item in her bag and kneeled over her. Already she was breathing normally and the rash was almost not even there anymore. Slowly I brushed some hair from her face and went still when she slowly reached up to grip two of my fingers.
"Sleep," I whispered gently to her. She went still again and I departed, taking her phone with me and turning it on silent before calling it with my own. Her voice mail answered after a few rings and I spoke into it. "Nanoha, I know you're studying hard, but if you can't come over, at least tell me? I worry about you. Call me okay? Thanks."
I set her phone down on the coffee table and left as quietly as I could so she could rest.
-giggles and prods Satashi's halo- Don't leave them hanging.

The girl who hit her was still standing still, watching. "I heard rumors about you, but they said you were smarter than this." I narrowed my eyes at her, lips curling up and salaiva dripping own my teeth. "Look around you."
My eyes hit each of them in turn before I allowed myself to dart my eyes. At least six bodies were scattered around the alley that I hadn't noticed before. The one closest had his mouth open, fangs exposed. "we saved her," The woman with bright pink hair stated sternly at me. "You know the regulations, anyone who sees a paladin act must have their memory blurred. That's all we did."
Releasing the hold on my wall, I fell and crouched around Nanoha's body to inspect her. No bites, no bruises. I swallowed the feeling in my throat and repressed the voice whispering in my mind. "You struck her."
"She wouldn't inhale," The leader, I now realized, told me calmly. "I would never hurt a-"
"You have been!" I stood and yelled, my voice my own again. I brought up Bardiche and glared. "I thank you for saving her... but if you so much as touch this female again, I will skin you alive."
"Hayate." The pink one spoke again and the leader nodded. The female walked to one of the bodies and took out something that looked like a stake. With a thurst, she jammed it into the fallen man's chest and I watched the body explode into ashes.
"The hell is that?" I asked, watching the others dispose of the vampires.
"You don't need to know that," The small one spoke, finishing off another.
When the pink haired girl got close to me to kill the one I inspected earlier I flashed at her, sliding along the ground, and ripping the stake from her hand. Without stopping, I pushed up and ran to the side to run along the wall. The bricks cracked under my feet and I arrived at Nanoha again before anything could be done to her.
But I blocked an attack that came from my side.
"Signum," Hayate warned softly.
"My apologies, Leader." Signum sheathed her sword. The attack came so fast I was honestly amazed by it. Sniffing, I realized that I had a light sheen of gas misted on my side and I noticed that small sparks came from the blade when Signum sheathed it.
The smell of fire was strong and I noticed that some areas around me had recently been burned.
Burning straw, smoke filling my lungs, rope tearing into my bloody wrist, people yelling.
I bit back the memory and spat to rid my mouth of the flavor of gas that I inhaled. "Leave."
"Let's go, Vita, Shamal, Zafira." Signum turned her back and started walking. Although I could strike, I held back. I wasn't one to press a needless battle.
When I no longer sensed danger I crouched down to inspect Nanoha again. She seemed to have trouble breathing but I couldn't do anything about that. Gently I picked her up into my arms and looked at her face. A light ring was around her nose and mouth where the mask was pressed up against her and her skin was a little darker than the rest of her face.
I was infuriated again for a brief moment before calming down. I needed to get her home and into bed. I knew how the paladin gas worked. It would make her almost drunk and everything she did in the past few hours would be nothing but a foggy haze in her mind.
Her house wasn't too far away and I managed to get in after fishing keys from Nanoha's recovered backpack. I walked through her store and up the stairs to her bedroom.
Laying her on the bed, I noticed that her face was starting to get even redder, almost as if a rash had formed. To inspect further, I opened her mouth and looked down her throat. Her breathing was almost not there and her heartbeat was slowing. 'She's suffocating!'
I went into her backpack quickly, looking around to confirm my suspicions. I found what I was after and looked at Nanoha briefly before gripping the emergency needle container and slamming it on the girl's thigh. She flinched in her sleep but didn't move any further as the medicine seeped into her body.
'She's allergic to somethings... I guess the gas was too much for her.' To insure that she would be alright, I pricked my finger with one of my fangs and held it over her mouth to let a few drops fall.
Vampire blood was by means a miracle cure, in fact there were some diseases -like cancer- that it only made worse. However, I knew enough about it to know exactly what it was. My old master was right for hte most part: The things that make up a vampire's blood contain a highly reactive substance that speeds up the healing process and fights off anything not supposed to be there. I could heal woulds in a matter of hours, as well as fight off infections. Nanoha would be fine with this headstart.
Once she was taken care of I went into her bathroom to look for a medicine cabinet. I needed to replace her emergency care item that I just used in case she got in trouble later. I was a big believer in privacy so I felt a twinge of guilt in my heart when I started opening her drawers.
I did, however, find interesting things. She apparently waxed instead of shaving, and also uses an enamel building toothpaste. She preferred spray deodorant and two-in-one shampoo/conditioner. That stuff always made my head itch.
About to give up, I looked around and spotted a floating cabinet with a single door. The handle stuck lightly and in my annoyed state, I jerked it a little too hard and made some of the contents fall over and roll out onto the counter.
I stared for a long time, eyes scanning over the many different bottles of pills. Some I knew while others boggled my mind. Slowly I picked the bottles up and replaced them, not knowing what to think. The girl had problems.
I stopped by her bed after replacing the stolen item in her bag and kneeled over her. Already she was breathing normally and the rash was almost not even there anymore. Slowly I brushed some hair from her face and went still when she slowly reached up to grip two of my fingers.
"Sleep," I whispered gently to her. She went still again and I departed, taking her phone with me and turning it on silent before calling it with my own. Her voice mail answered after a few rings and I spoke into it. "Nanoha, I know you're studying hard, but if you can't come over, at least tell me? I worry about you. Call me okay? Thanks."
I set her phone down on the coffee table and left as quietly as I could so she could rest.
A.)Nanoha
B.)Fate
A
yeah, Paladin's appearing
only Yunno is missing and a recruiting of Nanoha
*wonders what it's with that amount of pills*
To say Vivio was happy would be like calling Starlight Breaker a peashooter. She had only read about the kinds of things that went on at this convention. The numerous reviews and blog entries combined with her 'hobby' only increased her desire to be a part of it all. It seemed like forever until she turned 18 and would be able to attend what she considered THE yaoi event of all time. And now here she was, sitting amongst several hundred like minded people with a stage full of bishies in various states of undress. It was all so exciting and so much better than she could have ever imagined. The screaming continued on as another bishie lost his pants, revealing the pink and lacy piece underneath. She was pretty sure that she was also screaming and squealing with the rest of the girls in the room. How couldn't she? Everything was almost like a really, really good dream. In a way it was since it would all be over Sunday evening. So she had better make the best of it.
Bingo soon came to an end. Attendees flocked to the stage to get pictures as all the bishies had tossed off what they had remaining after the last round. Vivio looked up and as much as she wanted to, she made her way out of the room rather than fight her way through the crowd. Walking over to the elevators with her prizes, she glanced at her watch. It was nearly midnight which meant her mothers were probably back by now.
The metal doors parted with a ding, allowing her entrance. As the doors closed, she leaned against the wall and giggled. If they knew what she had just done, she would probably get Full Powered Starlight Breakered back to Mid-Childa. It was a good thing they went out into the city.
Before opening the door, she made sure to stuff the shirt into her bag. That would only bring up questions she really didn't feel like answering. She swiped her card, allowing her entrance to the hotel room. The lights were on, meaning she was right about them being back already. It also meant they were up. While she was hoping they would have been asleep, she knew that they would have most likely stayed up to make sure she got back safely. Sometime sit irritated her. She was 18 after all, not some little child anymore.
"Mama, I'm back."
"Ah, welcome back, Vivio."
Vivio paused for a moment. That was fate-mama. Usually Nanoha-mama greets her when she comes back, too. The only times she doesn't is when she has to...talk to her about something. It could also be that she was sleeping. Yes, that was it. She was asleep. Walking past the bathroom, she froze in her tracks. Nanoha was sitting on the edge of the bed with a neural expression on her face. Out of the corner of her eye she could see Fate sitting on the desk chair, looking a little nervous. That definitely wasn't a good sign. Not to mention they were all sharing the same hotel room which meant she had no place to run. There was the bathroom, but she really didn't want to have to explain any damages to the hotel.
"H-hi, Nanoha-mama."
Blue eyes met red and green, "Having a good time, Vivio?"
They couldn't have been at Bingo, could they? "Un, I've been having a lot of fun."
"So what do you have there?"
Vivio glanced down at the poster she was holding. "Oh, I...won this at a game." That wasn't exactly a lie. It was a game after all.
"Did you win anything else?"
There was no way they could have been at Bingo. "No, this was all..."
Nanoha crossed her arms over her chest. "Oh?"
By now Vivio was sure she was sweating. Maybe she was over thinking things. Yea, that had to be it. "This was all."
"So nothing else? Like...oh, clothing perhaps?"
Oh...crap. They did know. If she wasn't sweating before, she definitely sure was now. She knew she should have filled out a will before coming, "Erm...ah..."
Her mother's gaze didn't waver, "Well?"
They knew. This was very, very bad. Not only did she know, she wanted her to tell her about it. Mothers must be sadists or something doing this to their children. "U-um..."
"Nanoha, stop torturing the poor girl."
All eyes turned to the third member in the room. "She should have told us. This not something I want my daughter to involve herself with."
"You're right in that she should have told us. But she's responsible. You of all people should know that. Besides, it's not like it's anything illegal. Someones you just have to let loose."
Vivio sighed in slight relief. She was really glad Fate had decided to come along. If there was anyone who could talk to Nanoha, it was her.
"But did you see what those guys were doing up there? She tore a shirt off a guy!"
"And it looked like they were all having fun. Honestly, I really don't think they were all blackmailed into doing those things. It was all in fun, Nanoha."
"Hmph. Well it doesn't matter since we are goi..."
She didn't get to finish. "If I remember correctly, there was this teenage girl I knew who I caught reading some stories online once..."
Vivio blinked. Nanoha blinked. "Th-that's besides the point! And they weren't even mine! I happened upon them and got curious, that's all."
Fate giggled, "So they also accidentally ended up on Raising Heart so you could read it in school?"
Somehow the person of interest had changed from Vivio to Nanoha. It wasn't that she minded, but this new information was quite a shocker to the young adult. "You mean...Mama read...yaoi?"
"Oh yes. I believe her favorite pairing was..."
"Fate-chan!" The blond stopped with a grin on her face. "That was a long time ago. It was just a phase!"
"And that's no different than Vivio right now. Come on, Nanoha. Just let her have her fun. It's not like there's any harm in it. You did go to those strip clubs before."
That got a blush from the Ace of Aces. "It wasn't by choice! They dragged me there!"
Now Vivio knew a lot more about her mother than she ever wanted to know. "Um...s-so can we stay?"
"Fine. We can stay. But! No more taking clothes of people, understand?"
It was answered with a quick nod. Bingo was only for one night anyway so keeping the promise was easy. Besides, the only big event left was the auction. She wouldn't be taking any of their clothes off, but that does mean they couldn't do it themselves.
*rubs head* I thought you was the masochistic one? T_T
see? See what I go through? She abuses me T_T
Although I kinda like it...
Spoiler for Vampire!Fate pt.5b:
The first clash of weapons sent a small wave through my hands from the force of it. The smallest of the fighters, who didn't appear to be older than twelve, was holding a large battle hammer that was quickly melting under the pulsating heat of my scythe. I powered Bardiche more, feeling the surge from my grip on the handle extend into the large yellow gem on my weapon's head. My blade pulsed, heaing the hammer blocking my strike to the point where molten metal dripped down it. The little girl jumped back and dropped her weapon, glaring at her seared hands.
I spun around to avoid a lash from their attack wolf and used my speed to grab it's neck and quickly pull upwards to bring it's body into an arch and slam it's skull onto the ground, sending small cracks out in the dirt. I was going to rip it's throat out but I had to move to avoid a blast of a type of energy I didn't know.
With a flip of my body I landed feet first against one of the walls of the alley and buried my fist into the brick, clinging onto it and glaring fiercely. Nanoha's body was below me, motionless, and I felt another surge of rage come from my chest.
