Vampire!Fate, From Creation onwards to right now. The post doesn't like page breaks, so it may be a little hard to follow lol.
Spoiler for Vampire!Fate recap:
Nanoha
I looked at Fate with a mix between shock and awe. Her story was so sad that I really didn't know what to say. Having gone through all that and yet she's still here, smiling and laughing and doing whatever she wants. "It's in the past," she told me lightly, a small ironic grin on her face now. "It's like something bad happening in your life and years later you get over it. Don't be sad over my past, because my future is what's important."
"I see," I still felt bad for her, though.
"Ask."
"Huh?" I blinked and looked at her again.
"You're holding back. Go ahead and ask me. Better to get the bulk out of the way now so I won't be annoyed for the next month by questions every day. Go ahead." She took my hand when I hesitated.
"Okay, um..." I flushed. "No one has ever... bitten me, right?"
"Right."
"Why?"
"You're marked." Fate reached forward and traced a design on my neck. "When a vampire is strong enough they can infuse a little of their power into a person. You have a mark on you that only those with enhanced senses can see. Any vampire worth his salt will know that if they bite you, I would kill them."
"Fate-chan!" I stopped. I knew she's killed before but hearing it...
"Yes," She answered, meeting my eyes. "I still kill. Vampires. I don't hurt for the sake of hurting. I don't kill for the sake of killing. I am old, I am desensitized to it. I will kill in the future, and I will kill paladins as they engage me. I promise you this, though, I will never do it unless it's required."
I would have to accept that. "I trust you." It felt odd but I knew... her hands were too soft to be a mass murderer like the past... "Okay," I took a breath. "How do you turn people? Into Vampires, I mean."
She grimaced. "It sucks. They have to drink enough of my blood to overwrite their own. Just as I drink human's blood to create my own special type, a human can drink mine to taint their own. It's not much at first, but as they go their body starts to require the vampire cells to survive. Since you can't make your own, you have to drink blood to get what you need to create it. Want specifics?"
"No thanks... So just... That's a lot of blood isn't it?"
"For a small child it's not, but for an adult... yes it's a lot. A vampire can either do it all at once, which is easier on the human, or over the span of about a week, which is easier on the vampire."
I pondered this. "Explain?"
"For example, if they drank enough to fill their stomach, the human would have enough to convert their body into what's needed to create the cells from normal blood, and their body would start doing it. Once their blood is completely converted, then they will need an outside source because they no longer have normal blood. The vampire would be out of commission for several days because their blood is so low. It's enough to kill them if they're not careful."
"And the other way?" I didn't want her to go through that...
"Drink a little at a time. The human would be in a lot of pain over the course of a week, as their body battles it out with the new substance, but the vampire has time to recover, to refill their own blood and drink others."
"And a vampire... I never recall you telling me you got sick?"
"A vampire doesn't get sick," Fate cut herself off and stared at me. She knew what I was thinking now...
"Can you..."
"No." She glared. "I will not."
I felt hurt. "But, Fate-chan, you said-"
"No."
"WHY!?" I demanded, shocked as my own voice rose. I was confused now... if she told me her story, and wanted me to accept her... If she could take away this pain!
"You don't fully understand...." I she softened and I felt myself being pulled into a hug. "Nanoha...I'm sorry."
I sighed into her arms, still confused. Maybe it was something I was missing... but still... The thought that I could be cured still lingered in my mind.
Fate
My story lasted for most of the morning and Nanoha only had one more class left on this particular day so she decided to just ask one of her friends for their recordings to listen to later. She took to the store downstairs after a while and I watched her walk around with a dazed expression before I offered to buy her and Caro lunch. My trip lead me back to my apartment first to pick up Erio and then I swung by Zaxby's to get some chicken for everyone. Chicken is always happiness in my book.
As I drove, my mind wandered back to talking with Nanoha earlier. I still can't believe that she wanted to be turned into a vampire after hearing everything. Well, I could kind of get where she was coming from... Being turned could, actually, cure her... And judging from the countless bottles of pills in her cabinet and how coughing blood wasn't anything new to her...
"Fate?"Erio asked me curiously. "We going somewhere else?"
"Huh?" I blinked, realizing that I missed my turn. "Ah, no, sorry. Spaced out." I made the next right and flipped the block to park beside Nanoha's house. The girl really needed parking spaces...
As we walked back, I was shocked to find the store fairly packed. Granted, she seemed to always sell out but I guess with Caro pulling people in and having two people working there, business would pick up. Good, now I didn't have to worry about her starving.
"Here, I'll take over." I gave Nanoha the bags and shooed her back into her kitchen when she tried to protest. Erio took over for Caro without me even telling him to be a gentleman and offer, which made me proud. I guess Chrono was raising him well after all.
I kept a smile and rang people up as quickly and politely as I could, using it to try and distract myself from the lingering thoughts in the back of my head:
If I did turn Nanoha, we would be together for a long, long time.
I closed my eyes and gripped the counter tightly, trying to force the thought from me mind. No. I can't do that. I can't make her go through that, she's too nice, too kind... She wouldn't be able to hunt, and the pain involved would be too much for her to take...
I felt a hand on my back and turned to see Nanoha smiling up at me. "Go eat, before it gets cold," She told me gently. Her hands moved to mine and gave it a small squeeze. Whatever she thought about while eating had obviously calmed her down and made her spirits lift.
"Okay." I looked around the shop to make sure it was okay before moving to kiss her, but found her taking a step back.
"Parent's friends," She whispered, a little scared. "I can't risk it... "
"Right," I smirked, feeling playful again. "I'll kiss you later."
"Okay," She retorted on the spot, making me shocked a little. Her leg slid between mine slightly, hidden from view by the counter. "But, I'll be on top."
I felt my knees shake, amazed at how much this single human effected me. I had forgotten she was the dominating type.
God I loved the shy ones!
Nanoha
Once again I found myself with Fate, in my room studying. Erio and Caro were in my living room watching TV together after a hard day's work and a pleasant meal that Fate cooked up for everyone. Currently the blond was beside me, reading over a paper that I had to turn in, in a few days. Her ability to absorb information both astonished and annoyed me. She literally flipped through my entire chapter that it was on and remembered it all, even quizzing me and correcting two mistakes that I had made. It took me days to commit everything to memory and she did it in under an hour. But then again, this was Fate...
"You're staring." She told me, glancing up from my paper. "What are you thinking about?"
"What makes you think I'm thinking about you?" I flushed, realizing that she never mentioned that it was her I was pondering on. "Not a word."
"You said it, not me." She grinned and put the paper down. "How are you? I dropped quite a bomb earlier."
I moved to sit next to her on my bed and felt hr put an arm round my shoulders. "I don't want to bring it up if it upsets you but..." She looked at me with those clear blue eyes. "Fate-chan... Tell me why you won't help me?"
"I don't want to hurt you." She closed her eyes and pulled me into an embrace. "Living forever, seeing everyone you care about die, fighting just to survive, hunting and hurting people to keep going... I won't push that on to you."
I knew what she meant, having thought about that over lunch today, but still... "Okay," I sighed out. "But don't forget, I will be here for you to help you along, so... Please come to me if you are having problems. Okay?"
"Thank you," she whispered to me as she brought up a hand to stroke my cheek. We looked at each other for a few moments before she moved forward. We both licked out lips before they met, a soft, testing kiss. She pulled away from me and our eyes opened again. I looked into her eyes for a few moments before moving forward and kissing her again.
Fate fell back slowly as I urged her backwards, arms moving to loop around my body and hold me close. "Fate-chan," I whispered into her ear gently. "I don't know how you'll take this but... I'm in love with you."
I felt her grip me stronger briefly before I managed to rest my forehead against hers. Surprisingly, she was almost crying. Her hand went to touch my cheek again. "It's been... so long... since I've heard that."
"I'll tell you every day," I promised her, kissing again. In between our connection I heard her try and reply to me but I didn't have to hear the words. I could tell by her heartbeat, in her hands that touched me, and in her embrace that kept me warm.
We continued softly at first, then picking up when our hands started exploring. I felt her fingers touch my skin first, along my sides and under my shirt. In return, I testingly raised hers to touch her stomach. Her skin felt smooth under my touch and I placed both palms on her, rising her shirt up to reveal a red and black laced bra. My fingers worked before my mind did and I unclasped the front lock, moving the fabric and gazing at her body. She looked at me, a little shy but eyes clearly telling me that I was hers.
Slowly I leaned back down and kissed her, arms snaking around her back and pulling her close. "You... are very pretty." I whispered softly into her mouth. Her breath shook and I felt a finger slide up my spine, taking my shirt with it. My bra was unclasped and I gave her a surprised, happy gasp. My heart sped up and I felt suddenly warm as her hands slowly trailed to my front.
I gasped, her palm embraced me, we kissed, she panted... I touched her...
"Nanoha~" Caro's voice came up, making us instantly break apart and fix our shirts just intime for her to come in. "Can you show me how to work the DVD player?"
"Y-yeah..." I nodded, skin still tingling. "Be... be right there."
"Thank you!" She smiled and trotted off back to her friend.
I fell back against the wall and panted, looking over at Fate for a few moments before she started laughing.
"Mou..."
Fate
I grinned at Nanoha when she came into view and revved my bike several times to get her attention. I sat my helmet on my leg and grinned her when her eyes went wide. Several people were staring at me and I couldn't really blame them. Hot girl on a new bike, in a skirt and thigh high stockings... My white half jacket was the only thing innocent about me right now, and even it was part leather.
"Fate-chan," Nanoha whispered frantically when she was close enough. "Someone will see!"
"So?" I teased her, knowing full well why she was so shy.
"My parents," she hissed at me. "What if someone tells them!?"
"Helmet." I handed it to her. "No one will see."
Nanoha grabbed it and quickly put it on, tucking her hair inside of her shirt. "I can't believe you," Her voice floated into my ears thanks to the tiny speakers. "Fate-chan, you'll give me a heart attack one day..."
I chuckled and revved my bike, making her grab around my waist tightly before I sped off. "I need to tell you a few more things," I told her softly while pulling into the city.
"What?" She shifted to get comfortable and the death-grip around my waist loosened.
"Vampires," I told her seriously while stopping at a red light. "They are everywhere, Much like the lame movies and things you see on TV. Look there." I nodded to the side and Nanoha looked at the cafe right next to us. "That orangish red haired girl with the black ribbons with the crosses on them. She's a vampire."
"She's in one of my classes..." Nanoha breathed out. "And that blue haired girl she's with?"
"No." I drove again and Nanoha reclaimed her hold on me. "But like that, they are all around you. I marked you so you should be safer than before...but there are a few rebels. The new age of vampires who don't understand much. Be careful about those?"
"What do I do if one comes after me?"
I licked my lips. "I'll give you something once we're at my place."
"But my bakery!"
"Erio is helping Caro while we're not there. I need to give you the rundown now that you accepted me. Don't worry, it's nothing bad. I'm just being over protective."
"Really?" She asked softly.
"Really." I felt a small hug come from her and I smiled. Maybe I was being a little over protective.... but I didn't want to take any chances at all...
Her school was crawling with vampires.
And where there were vampires, there were paladins.
Nanoha
I realized that this would be the first time I ever entered Fate's apartment before. As we rode the elevator up, I felt a weird sensation in my stomach when the numbers kept getting higher and higher. Finally it reached the "P" button, which I assumed was "Penthouse."
We got off the ride and walked down a hallway before Fate unlocked and opened the left door. A cool gush of air greeted me and I looked around in apreciation of the fancy place. Although it was a loft style, it was clearly expensive. Hand-crafted furniture was everywhere, combined with art on the walls that I guessed cost more than what I made in a year. "Wow," I breathed out.
"It's home." Fate opened her refrigerator and offered me a Samuel Adams bottle. "Drink? Always a good decision."
"Um, sure." I took the opened bottle and looked at it curiously before taking a sip. The taste was weird but at the same time it wasn't bad so I took another. "So what did you need to give me?"
"A few things," Fate guided me over to what appeared to be a wall and pushed in a section of it before turning a small cut out circle in it that I never even noticed. The wall opened up like a door, leading into what I assumed had been a guest room before Fate changed it. "It's just a door with a hidden knob and reversed hinges," Fate explained after seeing my amazed look. "You have to press in and turn a certain area to unlock it."
"I see," walking into the room, I gasped when Fate turned on the lights. Several different types of weapons were placed on display shelves and lots of ammunition seemed to be on a bookcase on the wall, all neatly labeled. "I feel like I just stepped into a cheesy movie." I joked, trying to hide my shock and failing.
"A girl has to defend herself." Fate took my hand and guided me to a small section and picked up a few items from it. "These are really high tech. I have a few connections into the paladins as well. Pay them enough and they'll easily turn double agent for you."
"I thought they were nut jobs who lived just to hunt vampires?"
"Most are, but they still have scientist who only want money. Anyway," Fate held up a simple silver ring. "This is your first line of defense. See the tiny light bulb here?" She pointed at what I had oriinally thought to be a type of gem embedded into it. "This will activate if you twist the band competly. A button will pop out on the bottom. Point it at whoever is bothering you and press. It's small but you'd be amazed at the light it flashes at."
"It will blind them?"
"It's a super bright flashing light that does several different colors in the span of a second. It will send whoever looks into it into a seizure."
"That tiny thing!?"
"Nanoha, they are made to fight vampires who can punch through brick. They have to come up with things to help them."
"Okay..." I took the ring and slid it over my right ring finger. "This will protect me then?"
"Yes. this too." She handed me something that looked like a standard stun gun. " Press it against someone and pull the trigger. One spark of this and they won'y move for an hour."
"What if they're touching me? Won't I get shocked too?"
"Don't worry, you won't." She pointed to it. "Safety. Off. On. Off. When it's off, pull the trigger. Nanoha, be careful with this."
"Yes." I swallowed, feeling even more nervous when she picked up something else. "More!?"
"Last thing," Fate gave a small lopsided smile. "This, is my blood." She held up a small vial that was filled with what would be two swallows of something that could pass as oil. "I took it this morning." She showed me a faint scratch on her wrist.
"Fate-chan!" I took her hand and looked at it in shock. "does it hurt? are you okay!?"
"It will heal by tonight," She waved it off. "Anyway, this is special." Fate pressed it into my open palm and closed my fist around it. "The vial won't break even if you hit it with a hammer so don't worry about that. Take this with you everywhere. Everywhere." She repeated her word and I nodded. "Do everything you can to get away in case anyone tries to hurt you. If you can't, then drink this."
"Drink your blood!?"
"I blessed it." Fate informed me. "When you're as old as I am ou learn a few things... I was taught this by... well, you know." I nodded quickly. "This will make you able to defend yourself through me."
"Through you?"
"I can't really explain it. Just trust me. With this, you will always be safe. Always. Promise me you will never leave without it."
"I promise."
"In your pocket. Not your purse."
"Okay."
"Good." She sighed lightly in relief.
I never knew she was so worried about me... But right now, I could tell that she was trying to do everything she could to keep me safe. "Thank you, Fate-chan." I hugged the blonde tightly.
"Mm," She hugged me back and lead me out of the room. "Um, to be on a lighter note, want to see my home?"
"Sure!" I followed her up the stairs to the bedroom overlooking the living room and observed everything. "Where do you keep your clothes?"
"I fold them, in the drawer. My leather is hung up in the closet, but you have to go into the bathroom to get to them."
"Can I look?"
"go ahead," she seemed amused and I opened a drawer to see several differnt things, most of which were black.
"Pretty," I closed the drawer and opened the next, blushing when I realized it was her panty drawer. "Love black and purple?"
"Very."
I blushed more, but picked up and object and turned around, grinning. "I see." I twisted the bottom and laughed at Fate's slightly blushing cheeks. "Even this is black with purple lightning bolts. Cute."
"Stop playing with my sex toys unless you want to have sex." She grinned and crossed her legs knee-over-knee. "want to have sex?"
"Yes." She quickly got up to grab me but I held up a finger. "but I need to get back to my bakery."
"You... Mou!" Fate growled.
"Ne?" I closed her drawer and looked at the toy still in my hands. " Can I borrow this?"
"Can I watch you use it?"
"No."
"then no." She plucked it from my hands and replaced it, pulling me downstairs.
"You..." I faltered, blushing hard when I realized my joke had been turned around on me. "Mou!"
Fate
I felt it before I dropped Nanoha off at her bakery. I was being watched, and I didn't like it at all. My goodbye to my girlfriend was quick, not really wanting to stay with her any longer than I had to in case the person trailing me decided to pick a fight. I revved my bike and took off, popping my front end up for a few feet before landing again. Leaning forward, I narrowed my eyes and focused right in front of me. Cars were weaved in and out of quickly as I made my wayout of the more populated section of town and into the outskirts.
Finally, after almost ten minutes of a reckless chase, I realized that the person after me wasn't going to be lost so I instead pulled into an alleyway and cut off my bike. "So," I spoke up while taking off my helmet. The person parked next to me confidently and began taking theirs off as well. "What do I owe the pleasure?"
Orangish red hair was revealed and a girl with a pretty face looked at me. She had deep eyes and I could notice her fangs when she smirked at me. "No offense, but I'm here to kill you."
"I get that a lot." I placed my helmet down and swung my leg over the bike while my opponent did the same. She wasn't hasty, and that alone was enough to make me wonder. Most people just jumped and attacked, but this one seemed to be smarter than that. It was obvious she liked her bike, and if I wasn't about to kick her ass, I'd chat with her a while about it.
"Name's Tia." She spoke, stopping and setting her feet.
"Fate." I replied simply. "Why are you going to throw away your life, Tia?"
"Money talks." To my amazement, she pulled two objects that looked like playing cards from her pocket and flicked her wrist, makig them form into guns.
"How did you get a weapon like that? Only paladins have the technology to create those." I pulled Bardiche from between my breasts and flicked the gem, forming a staff that sucked lighting from my hand to activate.
"I am a paladin." Tia informed me with a smirk just before aiming and firing.
The bullets were faster than I expected, but still too slow to hit me. My body twisted down to avoid them and I darted forward, slashing out my scythe to cut her legs off. My swipe hit air and I had to roll several times to the side to avoid a hail of bullets that shattered the concrete beneath me where I once was.
I righted myself and slashed again, getting dodged by a straight bend backwards that quickly turned into a back flip kick. Grabbing her ankle, I slung her at the wall close by and narrowed my eyes when she flipped in the air and landed feet first, aiming once more.
Snarling, I ran forward into the rain, slashing my weapon to clear a streak through them. Tia was obviously shocked by my move and yelped when I grabbed her throat, shoving my weapon to her chest as she placed the gun against my temple. "What the hell are you?" I asked sternly, showing her clearly that I wasn't afraid if she fired or not.
"I am evolution," She replied simply, glancing down at her predicament. I used the chance to slip away and get behind her, twisting the scythe up to her neck and standing behind her. "I can ask you the same."
"I am the past," I snarled, pulling the scythe to slit her neck. Tia slipped under me by using a quick jerk to dislocate her shoulders to be able to get away from me before I killed her. Her body hit the ground and rolled, popping them both back into place and moving to shoot again.
My feet kicked from the ground to get closer but I found them snagged by string so small I didn't even notice it until they ripped clean through my leather boots and wrapped around my skin. Falling, I caught myself in time to roll to avoid several daggers that embedded into the ground. My throat was grabbed and Tia got on top of me.
Rapid gunfire rang out and I felt the energy rip into my body. Blood filled my mouth and I looked at the smirking girl in amazement. "Now," She spoke to me, voice confident. "I will drink my fill."
Are you really going to die here?
Tia flew from the alleyway, body hitting the asphalt and digging a trench in it. Two cars were hit and flipped over, sailing through the air as the limp body crashed into the building across the street and broke through the glass.
I gasped, white eyes slowly returning to normal as black feathers fell around me.
I gasped, mouth open and panting for air. My body shook, muscles ached, but I could still feel it deep inside. I cleared the road in a single leap, landing and shattering the sidewalk underneath me from the force. I straightened up and walked forward, still panting. Feathers were still falling, my mouth open in ragid gasps. My hands shook , fingernails growing...
I grabbed her and slowly pulled her face to mine. A long slow snarl came from my throat as she tried to regain her senses. She had hit her head when she landed, and I could smell the blood leaking in her hair.
"They never said..." Tia coughed out. "you were an ancient..."
"Who are 'they?'" I demanded, voice scratchy and deep.
"The people who hired me..." She was slowly coming to again fully. "They paid me to kill you, but they with held important information..."
I laughed at her stupidity. "Idiot. They wanted you dead, not me." I gripped her neck tighter. "You said you were a paladin. You lie."
"I didn't lie." She gripped my wrist and I could tell the fire was coming back into her eyes thanks to the small rest she was getting. "They trained me since I was created."
"You said created." I stated simply, my voice slowly turning more feminine as the devil was repressed.
Tia looked at me and I dropped her. She wouldn't attack me anymore, I could tell. "They injected my mother when she was pregnant. I was born a vampire but they kept me sated with pills. When I was old enough I was sent to kill others. I drank their blood to become more powerful and soon they gave me freedom to hunt and kill on my own."
"Why?"
"Hell if I know." Tia growled, now annoyed at my questions. "What's it to you?"
"Paladins hunting humans. Training Vampires to fight... Times are changing, and I don't like where it's going."
Tia twisted her neck with her hands, making it pop loudly. "I'm leaving."
"Not going to kill me?" My attitude was coming back as well.
"I can't kill you like that." Tia made her guns go back into cards. "A clean up crew will be here shortly."
My eyes glanced at the people standing around, staring in shock. When I looked again, Tia was gone and so was her bike.
I frowned.
~**~
So many questions. Who was Tia? Why was she a vampire but allied with Paladins? And if my gut feeling was right, why did they send her to die in a fight against me?
Nanoha's bakery came into view and I parked my bike in front of it. My body was sore and I was a little dizzy. Repressing...her... had drained me almost completely. I wanted nothing more than a cinnoman roll and a pint of warm blood to make me feel better.
The though of Nanoha's body curled against me, gasping in my ear as I drank, made me cheer up significantly. "Nanoha," I sang out to her as I entered the shop. She looked up at me along with someone else.
Who smelt like her.
"You!" I ran forward and grabbed the girl by the neck, lifting her up into the air.
"FATE-CHAN!" Nanoha cried out, running around to start pulling on my hand. "don't hurt her!"
"She's with her!" I revealed to my girlfriend, growling. "She tried to kill me!"
"She saved my life!"
I looked at Nanoha in confusion as she struggled to lower my arm by pulling on it. "What?"
"PLEASE!" She cried out.
I sat the girl down and she immediately started coughing and rasping for air. She allowed me to tilt her neck and I looked at the marking on it. This girl was a blood bank for Tia.
"Subaru-chan, are you okay?" Nanoha knelt by her and placed her arms on the girl's shoulders. "I'm sorry, she doesn't know yet."
"Know?" I asked, looking down a them. "Know what?"
Nanoha
"Subaru-chan, are you okay?" She nodded and took a steadying breath before exhaling slowly. I heard Caro start to ask a question when she came in from the kitchen so I cut her off before she could. "We're fine, Caro-chan, my friend just tripped over Fate-chan." She hummed and bought my small fib and retreated back with Erio.
"Explain," Fate stated a little firmly. Her red eyes were still gazinng at my brand new friend with distrust and I swallowed nervously.
"Um, well, you see..."
Subaru stood up and took over for me. "We were attacked by paladins. They sent my Meister to attack you because she was getting too strong to handle. They were going to kill me as well to erase the traces but we got away." She glared at Fate, a feature that didn't really suit her cute, playful appearance. "Now tell me if Tia is okay."
Fate crossed her arms and for a moment I thought that she might start another fight. Surprisingly, the blond simply walked away and snatched a cinnamon bun from the shelf. "Use the tongs!" I scolded out of habit, something I picked up over the years of children grabbing things. She looked at me curiously and I blushed darkly. "Um, sorry..."
"Tia is fine," Fate told Subaru as she walked over to me and reached into her pocket with her non-sticky hand to get some money. I tried to tell her this wasn't the time to worry about things like that but she shoved it in my chest and let go, making me scramble to grab it. "I beat her up pretty bad but she had enough energy to run away and get her bike while I wasn't looking. If she's as strong as you're implying then I doubt she'll be out for more than a few days."
Subaru nodded at Fate thankfully. "Good. I'll talk to her, this was a mis-understanding."
"No it wasn't." Fate corrected her around a mouthful. "She was paid to try and kill me. She tried to kill me. Your stupidity of accepting the job without doing your homework lead to you being turned against by the paladins. You should have never trusted them. It wasn't a mistake, it was planned."
Subaru looked offended for a moment but soon turned to shame. "Yeah..."
"Fate-chan!" I protested, annoyed at the harsh words. "Don't talk to her like that, she really helped me today!"
"Thank you." Fate said the words simply but I still stopped talking. "I owe you." Fate put her arm around me and I was pulled close to her. "In return, I won't attack Tia the next time I see her. Talk to your Meister and for the love the gods, don't go back to the paladins or we'll fight once more."
Subaru nodded at us and turned to leave my store. Once the blue haired girl was across the street I turned to look at Fate. "Are you okay?"
"It will take more than that to kill me." She looked down at me and I felt my cheeks color at the gentle look. "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine." I swallowed and sank back a little, embarrassed at how loving she was all of a sudden. "Some people came after Subaru-chan while we were talking. They... I think they saw my neck and one of them said to kidnap me."
"Che." She frowned but changed expressions quickly. "They're doing weird things..."
"It's okay." I looked up at her. "I chose this. I'm not going to run. Besides, even if I did, they still know me."
"You're strange."
"I think I have a rebellious streak in me."
Fate laughed lightly. "Private school, shy, church girl is rebellious? Who would have thought?"
"Hey..." I looked down and for the first time noticed that her clothes were ripped. "Fate-chan, your shirt..."
"Yeah, can I borrow something?"
"Yes, come on." I lead her back into the kitchen and told the two children to watch the store for me for a moment. Once we were in my bedroom I went to my closet and rooted through it. "All my things are rather simple and plain," I told her while listening to my girlfriend's clothes rustling. "I have a black shirt somewhere I think... Ah, here it is." I turned and dropped it, gasping. "Fate-chan, you're hurt!"
"This is nothing," She waved it off but I still ran forward. Under her bra, her entire stomach was stained with dried blood. "Really, Nanoha," She stopped protesting when I sat her down on the bed and ran to get a washcloth. "Oh here we go..." She fell onto her back and sighed.
I gently started dabbing away the blood with a dampened rag, looking for the wounds so I could treat them. More and more blood was cleaned and finally I had her entire front damp with water but seeing no wounds. "Where did you get hurt?"
"No where," Fate sat up and wiped her hand over her stomach. "I heal fast."
"But you lost that much blood..."
"Makes me a little thirsty." The way she said the words made me realize exactly what was going to be asked next. Her hands went to my shoulders and slowly pulled me forward.
"Fa...Fate-chan..." I was put in her lap, sitting with my legs over one of her thighs and back supported by one of her arms. Before I could say anything else. my lips were claimed. A soft kiss, a gentle urging of her tongue right away, and a warm feeling on my stomach as it was massaged. I lost myself against her, blushing as her trailing fingers went under my shirt.
"Nanoha..." Her words came against my mouth before small kisses trailed away. She grazed my bra with her hand and cupped my left breast fondly. Gasping softly, I closed my eyes and felt her tongue slide over my collarbone.
One hand went to her hair and I threaded my fingers into her hair. My bra came up over my breasts and I blushed hard as I was gently kneaded. Her fingers knew exactly where to touch, making me unable to stop her. The emotions came all at once and I didn't know how to deal with them other than to just lose myself in it.
I don't know how long we stayed like that, but all too soon her hand moved back to my stomach. My back was supported and her fingers slid down the front of my skirt easily. My eyes opened wide and a new rush came all at once, paired with gentle sucking on my neck. "Fate... -chan..." I was squirming, never experiencing anything quite like this.
I didn't want to push her away, but instead found myself trying to make it easier for her. I leaned my neck to the side and allowed one of my legs to move away from the other. Her fingers were gentle, making me gasp again. They were soft, touching just the right spots and pressing only hard enough for me to feel. My body was burning and my senses were lost in the raising desire.
A nip on my neck. A soothing, wet lick trailing. Another nip, a small kiss. I squirmed in her arms, gasped in the pleasure she was giving me. A small bite, another soothing lick. Warm, sticky from the cinnamon bun, intoxicating... I was pleading with my breathing now, begging for her to keep giving me this warm pleasure.
It didn't hurt like I thought it would. Instead, I felt her mouth suck on my neck once more, a burning feeling followed by a prick at the same time as my lower half erupted in pleasure. My breath caught, eyes wide. My hands shook, my legs quivered. The body blitz was so intense I felt as if I would pass out, and it heightened to an extreme that stole my voice when I felt a warm flow being sucked from my body.
And then it was over. Fate pulled back and looked at me. My vision was blurred, mind not comprehending anything other than a strange calming sensation as her fingers retreated. I watched her prick her finger with a fang and touched it to my neck, making it grow numb.
What confused me the most, however, was that she didn't even take enough to be considered more than a taste... and when my eyes started to see clearly again, I noticed an almost... disgusted look on her face.
"Rest," She whispered to me gently and I felt a tiredness come over me. I was tucked into bed slowly and my forehead was kissed. "I love you, Nanoha."
I couldn't answer yet but I knew she understood my look. My eyes fluttered cosed and I felt myself drift off. My body was warm, the sheets were comfortable, and I felt a peace inside me that I had never known before.
I love you too, Fate-chan.
I knew it all along, but for some reason I didn't believe it. Nanoha's skin was so smooth, so milky-white... She smelt like peaches and her flesh tasted so good... But I just ignored the fact that she was sick. The amount of foreign substances in her blood stream was enough to make me gag and want to throw up.
I was currently in the Roxbury, dancing on the floor while looking around with my eyes to find prey. I had to get rid of that taste, and drink enough to recharge myself. I did lose a lot of blood in that battle, but not enough to make me too terribly weak. I had wanted Nanoha to let me drink from her whenever I felt like it but... I guess sometimes life just hates you.
I never wanted to taste that again.
There! A vampire, the same one I saw when I first took Nanoha out. He was dancing as well, and from what I could tell he was interested in me. With a wry grin, I moved over to him and pressed my back against his front, getting a hand around my waist. I leaned back and whispered into his ear just loud enough to be heard over the music. "Let's not waste time, I want sex."
He laughed and I found myself being guided out of the club quickly. We ran a little while, me keeping my speed at a human's pace. The idiot couldn't even tell I was a vampire as well. Whoever was making these idiots around this town must be pretty stupid to not even teach them anything. The person pulled me into an alley and I grinned. There really was no limit to his idiocy.
I was pushed against a wall and almost laughed when he moved against me. I felt him against my stomach and briefly pondered what he could expect to please with something that small. "Ready, hot stuff?" He asked me.
"Oh yes." I gripped his neck and slipped out of his hold, smalling his forehead against the wall hard enough to make cracks appear. His body went slack in my arms and I sank to the ground, looking around before using my fingernail to sever the largest vein in his neck.
The taste wasn't bad, but wasn't the best. I was thirsty, however, so I drank heavily before he could recover. It didn't take too long for him to start groaning and I pressed him against the wall harder, sucking more. "You.. whore..."
I chose to ignore him, having been called many things before in my life. I wasn't dumb enough to stop drinking to have a verbal chit-chat with my food. His body grew weak and he hunched over, more dead than alive. My stomach was full and I had enough to recover from my earlier battle. I moved to his ear and spoke into it. "I'll let you live. Thanks for the drink." With that, I slammed his head into the wall again and moved away. He would wake later, and would go about his buisness. No mess to clean up, no news to worry about, and no witnesses to deal with...
Okay, maybe one.
I turned and looked at the girl standing in the alleyway. She wore an unbuttoned leather trench coat that was shockingly white. Her clothes were tight over her body, a black top with a golden zig-zag zipper going down the front. A black miniskirt covered her legs that was also accented in gold trim. In her right hands she held a staff with a cross on the end of it, completed by a golden circle hitting all the sides of it. I recognized her from before, as the leader of the group who saved Nanoha and the one who punched her to make her inhale the gas.
"Fate Testarossa." She spoke my current name as she started walking. I noticed she had on white moots that splashed with black and gold as well.
"I like your clothes," I stated, making her pause briefly.
"Ah, thank you?" She recovered and shook her head. "I'm here to kill you."
"Why?"
"Because you are a vampire."
"That's all?" I stood fully and walked towards her. She was a short little thing, and barely came to my breasts. "Why are you killing vampires if you don't know anything about them?"
She tilted her head back and looked up at me seriously. I couldn't detect a single bit of fear in her eyes, despite how cute and innocent looking she was. "You are an abomination. A plauge that needs to be wiped out before it spreads too far."
If she thought she could enrage me and make me lower my guard, she was wrong. "Why?" I asked her simply.
"...Because." She glared at me. "Attack!"
"Why?"
"BECAUSE!" She took a few steps back and held her staff at the ready. "That's what we do!"
"I don't want to fight."
She faltered. "But you're a vampire!"
"So?" I seem to be winning this game.
"So you hurt and kill people for your own gain!"
"No I don't." The girl gripped her staff harder. "Why did your group try and kill the girl who helped you?"
"What?" She blinked.
"Tia. Red head. Uses guns." I narrowed my eyes. "You sent her to kill me, so she would die. Then you went after her blood bank, and tried to kill her! A human!"
"N-no we didn't! Tia was sent on a long term mission in Germany!"
I stayed silent a moment before I realized what was going on. "Oh... I see."
"See? See what!?"
I smirked at her. "They lied to you so you wouldn't know that she was going to be killed. That way you wouldn't lose loyalty to your cause. Very, very clever." She took a step forward to try and threaten me but I stayed where I was standing. "What was your name?"
"Hayate."
"Hayate." I tasted it, liking the way it rolled off my tongue. "Thank you for protecting Nanoha before."
She finally let the tip of her staff fall and she looked at me curiously. "Why... aren't you attack me? Why did you not try and press the fight from before? They told me you were smart but..."
"They are lieing to you." I stated simply. "Not all of us are bad. Not all of us chose this. Not all of us are killers. I stay out of this war for a reason." I looked at her and stared into her eyes. She was...strangely innocent. "Hayate, you clearly don't understand everything of what you do."
"Yes I do!"
"Why then?"
"... BECAUSE!" She lifted her staff again and glared.
"Are you stupid!?" I ran forward the few steps between us and grabbed her staff, moving it away and getting in her face by leaning down. "I could have just killed you." She swallowed but held firm. I could see doubt in her eyes but fear was still not there. "I am going to let go of your weapon." She nodded at me and I did so. She didn't attack me so I smirked. "You're interesting." moved away from her and started walking the way she had come from.
"Hey!" She called out and I turned to look over my shoulder. "I... I didn't hurt her did I?"
I grinned, showing a fang. "Yes. Yes you did. I took care of her, though." She stayed silent a moment so I walked more.
"Fate!" I looked over my shoulder yet again at her. "I... like your outfit too."
I laughed and jumped up, backfliping onto a rooftop and running along it to leap to another. I had a really interesting night tonight.
I had originally wanted to surprise Nanoha at her college by taking her out to eat but I couldn't find the girl where we normally ran into each other. Not one to give up so easily, I revved my bike and took off to go visit her bakery instead.
I was greeted with the smell of freshly baked goods when I took off my helmet and waved to Caro easily when she looked up at the beeping tone made when I entered. "Hey squirt," I hailed her playfully, ruffling the small girl's hair. "Nanoha make it back yet?"
"She's asleep up stairs." Caro told me simply. "She's not feeling that well."
"Eh?" I moved past her, despite the request to let her rest, and jogged up the stairs to the apartment. Sure enough, the lights were off and I heard light snoring coming from the bedroom. The door was pushed open and I walked into the slightly cool room to look down at my girlfriend.
A light sheen of sweat was on her face and her mouth was set in a small frown of discomfort. I slowly sat on her bed, but despite trying to be careful, the snoring stopping and blue eyes sleepily opened. "Fate-chan..."
"I'm sorry," I moved forward to brush some hair away from her eyes and grimaced when I felt the heat she was putting off. "How are you...?"
"Cold," She snuggled under the covers more and actually had a body shiver. "I over slept."
"It's past three," I reasoned with her but only got a pout. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Nanoha sighed and rolled over to lay on her side. She stayed like that for a few moments before whimpering and moving out from under the covers.
"Nanoha?" I tried to touch her but she stumbled away from me and went to her bathroom. The girl attempted to close the door but didn't quite make it before collapsing by her toilet and throwing up. "Hey..." I knelt by her and stroked her back, then held her as she got a small break before going again.
I wasn't really good at taking care of others so I just sat with her until she tried to stand and then helped her to the sink so she could wash out her mouth. "Sorry," she managed out before slurping and spitting out a reddish brown liquid.
"Are you okay?" I asked again, frowning as the red lingered in what she was spitting out. "I should take you to the hospital..."
"No," She shook her head and reached for her cabinet to pilfer three different bottles after looking around a bit. "They won't do anything, I'd rather be home..." I watched her take all three pills at the same time and then drink some more water. "Ugh, back to bed..."
I watched her make the trip with concern. The girl literally fell onto her sheets and laid there, face down. Her body shivered and a groan came but it was obvious she didn't have the energy it would take to cover up. "Here..." I pulled the sheets from under her with a few jerks and then tucked her in, bringing a pillow under her head. "Better?" Nanoha simply panted heavily before she tried to lift herself again. My hands went to support her but she threw up and then fell back down on her bed, too weak to move.
Bravo Satashi, i love it, i am looking forward for it.
this fiction is getting more interset every chapter.
Pretty much Subaru and her unit and trying to get to a planet that is about to implode, but the portal takes a path that goes by the planet Fungala, she and her two female commrades end up on the planet, getting wounded in the fall.
Tia, because of her track record of completing the odd ball jobs, gets assigned to the rescue mission.
The annual Moon festival is going on at Fungala, which gives the inhabitants the ability to bond. The plot is pretty obvious from there, lolz.
This is more like a preface for some more interesting ideas though.
I found out you can get internet in the middle of the jungle on top of a mountain! Its all thanks to this nifty gadget I bought. Also, I have a question. What do you do when your mom starts crying? because my mom freaked out today (it's the day before the big anniversary party) and I had no idea what I was supposed to do. So... things I learned from this trip so far: Leeches suck (literally), the Portland (Maine) airport is unreliable, and that this thread is an addiction. You can't cut yourself off from it.
"Fate-chan...wait...up..."
The blond girl halted her steps and turned to face her friend (and possibly lover according to the current betting pool on base). "C'mon, Nanoha. You can do it."
To day the girls, and by girls it really means Fate, decided to try something different on their day off. With the weather predicted to be sunny and warm for the next few days, it was deemed an excellent time to head out of the base and commune with nature. It took some coaxing, but she managed to get Nanoha to come with her on a hike into woods. Both were dressed for the warm weather in comfortable boots, shorts, and t-shirts. Supplies for the hike, water, food, etc, were split between the two of them in their backpacks. Their trip began in the mid-morning so they would reach a resting spot before the hot afternoon rolled around.
"How much...farther...?"
"Just a little bit longer."
"That's what you...said before," Nanoha managed to wheeze out.
Fate sighed and shook her head. For someone who could fly circles at top speed for hours on end and engage in multiple mock battles throughout the day she got surprisingly tired merely walking a few miles. Her train of though was cut off by a slight squishing sound behind her. Turning, she spies her friend sitting down on the semi-moist ground trying to catch her breath. She had hoped to reach the spot she had found on previous runs which was in the open and probably dry after last night's light shower. However it seemed that Nanoha couldn't wait and just ignored the wet soil beneath her.
"Just give me a few minutes..."
"Fine, fine. We'll take a short break here."
She got no argument as Nanoha brought her knees up and rested her head on them. With nothing else better to do, Fate decided to look around their current location. The canopy above them wasn't overly dense, letting in a good amount of sunlight to illuminate the forest floor. Birds and other insects flew overhead, brining the forest to life. This was something they could never experience staying on base or in the city. Nature was such a wonderful thing and Fate loved it.
"Fate-chan!"
The blond whipped around, preparing herself for what startled her friend. "What is it, Nanoha?"
"Th-the ground is moving!"
Fate blinked and stared at the area Nanoha was transfixed on. It looked like regular dirt and leaves to her. Squinting to try and get a better look, she noticed some movement. It was probably some bugs as this was a forest. As she stepped closer, she noticed it wasn't really moving but swaying slowly out from under the cover of leaves.
"Oh, it's just a leech."
Nanoha turned to Fate, "A-a l-l-leech?"
"Yea. I saw a stream nearby here and the ground is still wet so it probably brought them out."
"D-don't they s-s-suck blood?"
"Um, yes?"
Before she could say anything else, Nanoha scrambled to her feet. Her blue eyes darted around, looking for any more of the worm-like creatures.
"Nanoha, calm down. They're not that dangerous. They just fall off after they're done."
"D-done?!"
Fate mentally slapped herself for even mentioning that. ""Let's just continue on, Nanoha. I'm sure-"
"There's one on my leg!!"
Looking down, there was definitely something on top of Nanoha's boot. It crawled along up the laces. "Nanoha, that's a millipede not a lee-"
"Raising Heart!"
Fate's eyes went wide, "No, Nanoha! Don't!"
"Starlight BReaker!"
Moments after the massive explosion cleared, Fate pulled herself free from the dirt. The forest around them for several meters was gone, a slight crater and barren dirt being replacing it. Her gazed shifted to her friend who was standing in the epicenter clutching her Device.
Apparently waking up at five o'clock in the morning and spending the next seven hours doing menial labour spawns my stupid train of thoughts...or at the very least amplifies them...
When 6x11 != 66...
Spoiler:
"Afternoon, ma'am. Here's your delivery, I just need you to sign -"
"You're late."
" - here...what? Your ordered two hours ago."
"Your ad guaranteed delivery in an hour, or the service was free."
"Ma'am, that guarantee only applies for deliveries in the municipality."
"I didn't see that anywhere."
"It's written right on the ad - "
"Are you giving me lip, girl?"
The your redhead shook her head in disbelief as the heavyset woman continued to berate her. It was bad enough she'd had to travel two districts to drop off some stupid package, but the customer had to be a complete bitch. She had half-a-mind to take her Riding Board and smack some sense into the blimp.
"In my days young folk like you wouldn't be allowed to mouth off. Nowadays you spoiled brats think you can run around, doing whatever you wa -"
'The customer is always right. The customer is always right. The customer is always right...'
"Are you listening to me young lady?"
'No, I was visualizing what your head would look like plastering everything in a 30 meter radius.' "Ma'am, I can't leave the package here until you sign the forms."
"Oh no, I'm not paying a cent for some shoddy delivery. I'm callin' your manager!"
'Aw hell, if you give him shit, he'll end up giving me shit, and that's the last thing I need.' "You'll still need to sign the forms, ma'am."
"Are you talking back to me, girl?"
---
"Madam shows 19."
"Hit me."
"Ace of diamonds, Madam shows 20."
"Stand."
The green haired girl smirked to herself as she discreetly adjusted her wig. Piece of cake, they wouldn't know what hit them.
"Dealer busts, Madam wins."
She pushed some more chips forward, palming the underside of the table as she did. IS: Deep Diver. Laughing silently, she watched as the cards were being dealt out again.
---
"Wendi, this is the fourth complaint we've had about you in a month."
"It wasn't my fault, sir - "
"As far as I see it, you're lucky we even let you work for us, given your history."
"Yes sir, I'm sorry sir." 'Violence is prohibited under any circumstance. Violence is prohibited under any circumstance. Violence...'
"This is your last warning, do I make myself clear?"
"Yes sir, perfectly clear, sir."
---
"I want to cash these chips in."
"Sure thing, just let me - hey, don't I know you from somewhere?"
"Uh...no...of course not. You probably mistook me for someone else."
"Hey, wait a minute! You're that -"
"Sorry, gotta go!"
---
Wendi collapsed face-first onto the soft bed, not even bothering to take off her uniform. She was completely exhausted, and just wanted to sleep for the next twelve hours straight. As she began to drift off, though, the front lock clicked, and Sein's energetic voice boomed out from the front door.
"Wendi, I'm home!
Her footsteps were heard through the hallways, wandering about until they finally closed in on the bedroom.
"So, looks like I'm banned from another casino - you alright there Wendi?"
Wendi barely moved as she grunted out in a muffled voice. Sein's lips drew up into a sly grin, before jumping onto the bed and glomping the girl.
"Someone's grumpy. I know just what you need!"
She lightly nipped at the redhead's neck, placing teasing kisses along her collar - before being interrupted by a heavy elbow to her head.
"Unh, not tonight...I'm tired."
Sein rubbed where she'd been hit, but leaned over again, trailing a hand over Wendi's back. She was stopped once again though, as Wendi reached up and roughly pushed her away.
"I said no."
"Yeesh, lighten up, would ya?"
Wendi finally got up, suddenly glaring at the green haired girl.
"Lighten up? I've been working this crap ass jobs for the last month while you've been goofing around all this time! Would it kill you to do some real work, for a change?!"
"Huh?! If you haven't noticed, I've been bringing home a lot more cash than your dead-end jobs ever could."
"Yeah?! Well, don't expect me to bail you out when the TSAB hear's you've been violating your agreement."
"I don't need any of this crap. Dieci never gave me shit."
"Then why don't you go running to her, then!"
"Maybe I will!"
"Fine, then do it!"
"Fine!"
Sein stormed out of the room, and Wendi collapsed back onto the bed, muttering angrily to herself, finally wide awake. As several minutes passed, though, and she started to cool off, she noticed how quiet the house sounded. She waiting awhile longer, but sat up when she didn't hear any noises.
"...Sein?"
When there was no answer, she called again. Starting to panic, she bolted to her feet, running to the bathroom and kitchen. With no sign of the other girl, Wendi realized that she might have actually left, and booked it toward the front hallway. Just as she was fiddling with the front latch, though, a firm hand gripped onto her ankle, and she looked back just in time to see Sein hop out of the floor. With a mischievous grin, the green haired girl wrapped her arms around the redhead.
"Hehee, I knew it, you couldn't live without me. Now, how about we kiss and apologize?"
"...Sein..." Wendi murmured, her voice low and threatening.
"Uh...y-yeah? What is it?"
"...Couch."
"W-what? But it was a joke, honest! No hard feelings, right?"
Since TSS is on Vacation for so long, and Backlog has been so plentiful lately.......I archived the shorts from now all the way back to TSS's original archive post. It took me...... *looks at watch* well, all day @_@;;;
Anyway, if you see any mistakes, let me know and I'll fix them!
"And...and then..." Fate smiled stupidly across the table at her friends before drinking the last of her amber drink clinging to the ice in the glass. "And then..."
Nanoha put her cheek against her palm and smiled at Fate. "It must be nice, having two days off in a row"
A giggle came beside her and Hayate looked at the drunken Fate try and speak. "Her tolerance really is zero."
Fate hiccuped before setting her glass down and standing. "Let's...go do something?"
"Like?" The two girls stood as well, helping the freshly promoted girl walk out of the bar after calling for it to be added to their tab.
"I dunno," Fate stumbled lightly and pumped her fist into the air. "But we're not going to sleep until the sun comes up!
~**~
Fate slowly opened her eyes and groaned, bringing a hand to cover the light flooding her bedroom. "Ugh... My head..." Slowly she sat up and shivered. "Why... am I naked?" Fate blushed darkly when she noticed that her bra was hanging off the side of her bed and her panties were on the lamp shade next to it.
Gingerly she swung her feet out of bed and rubbed her nose to try and collect her thoughts... "I remember... drinking... and Hayate said something..." Stumbling to her bathroom, she missed the several empty bags littering her floor, each bearing the logo "Cosplay Capital" on them.
"And... Nanoha..." Her hand knocked over an empty bottle of sex gel by her sink and missed it rolling off the counter and onto the floor and had several futa pills spilled over the rug. "Ugh my head..." Splashing her face did little to remove the migraine lingering in her head and the light as cut off so she wouldn't have to keep her eyes closed. As she left the bathroom, she missed the reflection in the mirror, showing full body butterfly wings tattooed on her back.
Going downstairs, she kept her eyes closed and stepped around empty plastic containers that once held...questionable contents from a place known as "Fantasy Land". As she got into the kitchen, she reached up to her cabinet to take out some headache medicine and gulped it down, ignoring the fact that her shirt and skirt were on the kitchen table.
Fate slowly walked back upstairs and sat on her bed gently. "Ugh, why are my thighs so sore...?" A hand went to her head as she fell back on the bed and looked up at her ceiling fan. "And... Why do I smell like sex?"
The blond girl halted her steps and turned to face her friend (and possibly lover according to the current betting pool on base). "C'mon, Nanoha. You can do it."
To day the girls, and by girls it really means Fate, decided to try something different on their day off.

"At least the leeches are gone, nyahaha..."
Nanoha is a threat to nature even. The people working at a forest protection department are probably going to have a looong day. Well, at least the leeches are gone!
---
Vampire Fate: I come out at night.
Vampire Fate: I like to bite you.
Vampire Fate: I suck your blood.
Vampire Fate: I leave bite marks when I'm done.
Vampire Fate: What am I?
Nanoha: A leech!
Vampire Fate: T_T

"Ace of diamonds, Madam shows 20."
"Stand."
The green haired girl smirked to herself as she discreetly adjusted her wig. Piece of cake, they wouldn't know what hit them.
"Dealer busts, Madam wins."
She pushed some more chips forward, palming the underside of the table as she did. IS: Deep Diver. Laughing silently, she watched as the cards were being dealt out again.

"Wendi, this is the fourth complaint we've had about you in a month."
"It wasn't my fault, sir - "
"As far as I see it, you're lucky we even let you work for us, given your history."
"Yes sir, I'm sorry sir." 'Violence is prohibited under any circumstance. Violence is prohibited under any circumstance. Violence...'
"This is your last warning, do I make myself clear?"
"Yes sir, perfectly clear, sir."
---
"I want to cash these chips in."
"Sure thing, just let me - hey, don't I know you from somewhere?"
"Uh...no...of course not. You probably mistook me for someone else."
"Hey, wait a minute! You're that -"
"Sorry, gotta go!"
---
Wendi collapsed face-first onto the soft bed, not even bothering to take off her uniform. She was completely exhausted, and just wanted to sleep for the next twelve hours straight. As she began to drift off, though, the front lock clicked, and Sein's energetic voice boomed out from the front door.
"Wendi, I'm home!
Her footsteps were heard through the hallways, wandering about until they finally closed in on the bedroom.
"So, looks like I'm banned from another casino - you alright there Wendi?"
Wendi barely moved as she grunted out in a muffled voice. Sein's lips drew up into a sly grin, before jumping onto the bed and glomping the girl.
"Someone's grumpy. I know just what you need!"
She lightly nipped at the redhead's neck, placing teasing kisses along her collar - before being interrupted by a heavy elbow to her head.
"Unh, not tonight...I'm tired."
Sein rubbed where she'd been hit, but leaned over again, trailing a hand over Wendi's back. She was stopped once again though, as Wendi reached up and roughly pushed her away.
"I said no."
"Yeesh, lighten up, would ya?"
Wendi finally got up, suddenly glaring at the green haired girl.
"Lighten up? I've been working this crap ass jobs for the last month while you've been goofing around all this time! Would it kill you to do some real work, for a change?!"
"Huh?! If you haven't noticed, I've been bringing home a lot more cash than your dead-end jobs ever could."
"Yeah?! Well, don't expect me to bail you out when the TSAB hear's you've been violating your agreement."
"I don't need any of this crap. Dieci never gave me shit."
"Then why don't you go running to her, then!"
"Maybe I will!"
"Fine, then do it!"
"Fine!"
Sein stormed out of the room, and Wendi collapsed back onto the bed, muttering angrily to herself, finally wide awake. As several minutes passed, though, and she started to cool off, she noticed how quiet the house sounded. She waiting awhile longer, but sat up when she didn't hear any noises.
"...Sein?"
When there was no answer, she called again. Starting to panic, she bolted to her feet, running to the bathroom and kitchen. With no sign of the other girl, Wendi realized that she might have actually left, and booked it toward the front hallway. Just as she was fiddling with the front latch, though, a firm hand gripped onto her ankle, and she looked back just in time to see Sein hop out of the floor. With a mischievous grin, the green haired girl wrapped her arms around the redhead.
"Hehee, I knew it, you couldn't live without me. Now, how about we kiss and apologize?"
"...Sein..." Wendi murmured, her voice low and threatening.
"Uh...y-yeah? What is it?"
"...Couch."
"W-what? But it was a joke, honest! No hard feelings, right?"
"Couch."
"Aw man, not again!"
With THEM we really don't get lots of stories. Nice ending.

A giggle came beside her and Hayate looked at the drunken Fate try and speak. "Her tolerance really is zero."
Fate hiccuped before setting her glass down and standing. "Let's...go do something?"
"Like?" The two girls stood as well, helping the freshly promoted girl walk out of the bar after calling for it to be added to their tab.
"I dunno," Fate stumbled lightly and pumped her fist into the air. "But we're not going to sleep until the sun comes up!
~**~
Fate slowly opened her eyes and groaned, bringing a hand to cover the light flooding her bedroom. "Ugh... My head..." Slowly she sat up and shivered. "Why... am I naked?" Fate blushed darkly when she noticed that her bra was hanging off the side of her bed and her panties were on the lamp shade next to it.
Gingerly she swung her feet out of bed and rubbed her nose to try and collect her thoughts... "I remember... drinking... and Hayate said something..." Stumbling to her bathroom, she missed the several empty bags littering her floor, each bearing the logo "Cosplay Capital" on them.
"And... Nanoha..." Her hand knocked over an empty bottle of sex gel by her sink and missed it rolling off the counter and onto the floor and had several futa pills spilled over the rug. "Ugh my head..." Splashing her face did little to remove the migraine lingering in her head and the light as cut off so she wouldn't have to keep her eyes closed. As she left the bathroom, she missed the reflection in the mirror, showing full body butterfly wings tattooed on her back.
Going downstairs, she kept her eyes closed and stepped around empty plastic containers that once held...questionable contents from a place known as "Fantasy Land". As she got into the kitchen, she reached up to her cabinet to take out some headache medicine and gulped it down, ignoring the fact that her shirt and skirt were on the kitchen table.
Fate slowly walked back upstairs and sat on her bed gently. "Ugh, why are my thighs so sore...?" A hand went to her head as she fell back on the bed and looked up at her ceiling fan. "And... Why do I smell like sex?"
It's funny how Fate is completely clueless about what happened.

anddddd....!!!!!!!!!! Arigatou Sheitarou posted a one-shot at ff.net!!!!!!!!!!! *o*
weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!
I haven't written for Nanoha in a little while, so I did some short and new. Yes, another series. SWAT!Fate will come back very soon, only my work is stranded back home. And Transitions will resurrect... sometime.
Spoiler for Start:
Fate sat up in bed, displacing silk sheets, yawned and stretched. She turned, arms still slightly raised, onto her side, and looked, bemused, at the still sleeping girl that lay beside her. Fate watched her, the rise and fall of her bare chest as she took shallow breaths, the wild, now untied brown hair that splayed across soft pillows, and her closed, smiling lips, which were still darkened by traces of Fate’s lipstick.
Slipping out of bed and wrapping herself in a black gown, Fate left the bedroom. She showered and dressed informally before descending a glass staircase to the rooms below.
Hayate greeted her. “You have a press conference in Shanghai today, two hours from now.”
Fate sighed. “Must I go?”
“Yes, you must. First, you can switch your clothes; I left out a new suit and trousers combination on your bed yesterday.”
Grinning sheepishly, Fate replied: “Ah, Hayate, that might be a little creased after last night.”
Hayate grimaced. “Then pick one of the ones in your wardrobe. Your jet leaves in twenty minutes.”
“Well, one would think my jet would wait for me.”
Five minutes later, a freshly suited Fate was ushered out of her mansion and into the back seat of the black limousine. Hayate handed a folder through the window as the car started off, and she yelled after it.
“The folder will tell you what the conference is about!”
Fate yawned, opened the folder, and stared for a moment at the dreary paperwork inside before throwing it onto the floor of the vehicle, scattering printed paper sheets everywhere.
Only two minutes late, having been delayed by a distracted male security guard whom had fumbled with Fate’s passport, Fate arrived next to her Learjet. She jumped out her car and hurried up the stairs into the passenger cabin.
“Who is flying with me today?” she called up to the cockpit, and two uniformed women turned around to look at her. “What’s our estimated flight time?”
“Two hours twenty minutes,” replied the captain.
“Get me there in under two hours and I’ll take you both out for dinner,” called Fate happily.
The pilots blushed, looked at one another for a second, and turned back to the plane’s controls.
Can you guess what Fate is (apart from the obvious)?

Look good, but is this an original story, or a retelling useing MGLN characters.
