“How… how did you escape?” the guard was surprised. He had thought that it was a rat or something like that. Nanoha took this chance and, knowing that it was perhaps her last chance to save herself, instantly chanted.
“Holy light strike down my enemies… Lumino Moveou,” Once again an orb, this time smaller, came out from her hand. The orb just went in a straight line and hit the guard on the chest. “He is only unconscious right?” Nanoha got near the, now unconscious, guard and took his sword. “Now I don’t have to rely on magic.” The sounds of the footsteps of the other two guards coming down could be heard through the dungeon. Nanoha decided to hide in the blind part of the entrance, the wall near the door. Perhaps she could just run pass them when they went to check the body of their comrade. Or she could just kill them or knocked them out. Decisions, decisions.
As she saw how both guards passed right next to her, she got nervous at the thought of them looking at the side and discovering her. Thanks to the goddess, the other two guards just passed her and went to look on the other one.
“What is this idiot doing here?” One of them signaled the cell where Nanoha was minutes before. “Go and check on the cell if our prisoner is still in there.” The other nodded and moved to see if Nanoha was still in the cell.
Time for me to disappear from here.
Knowing that she would be discovered no matter what, Nanoha ran upstairs, ignoring the screams of the other two guards. Arriving at the end of the stairs, she closed the door and put a long wooden bar as the lock to buy her more time for escaping.
Now let me see… I need to find Raising Heart. It must be nearby. They always make the mistake of putting the cell and the treasure nearby of each other. Then I have to find the princess and rescue her. And finally find Lord Fate and leave this place. If I find a place with natural light… better for me worse for them.
Hearing the other two guards hitting the door with their swords in an attempt to break it down, Nanoha decided to run before they took down the door. As she left the room, she saw that she was in a long aisle, with no indications where could the treasure room be, or a place where there was light.
Ok no big deal, I just have to decide where to go… left or right. It should be easy right?
...blah... blah... blah... added tss rebels redux reloaded... that thing to the complication |
Since I think more light means more power then I think A is the best choice.

Fate bought two skewers of chicken yakitori and handed one to Nanoha. The women nibbled happily as they walked down the street.
"There's one thing I don't really get about this TSAB thing, Fate-chan," Nanoha said between bites.
"Considering that you're a captain in their air force, you probably shouldn't have too many questions," Fate replied, grinning.
"Actually, it's more of a Navy question. I mean, seriously, what kind of rank is Enforcer, anyway?"
Fate blinked.
"Excuse me?"
"Well, just listen to it. It sounds like the kind of title you'd hear for the chief troops of an evil overlord in an RPG or something. You know, like they'd wear these giant suits of armor, with just a little tinge of rust to hint at blood, covered in spikes and engravings of skeletons...or maybe just these cool, menacing black outfits that..."
Her voice trailed off as she glanced at Fate, noting her black uniform.
"W-well, anyway, you know, and they'd have some really evil-looking weapon, something designed to intimidate and strike fear instead of being efficient for combat. Like a giant spiked club, maybe, or an axe with a cruel-looking, twisty head, or maybe even a giant Grim Reaper's scythe or..."
She broke off again, thinking of Bardiche.
"Yes?" Fate asked, burgundy eyes the color of old blood glinting merrily.
"Fate-chan, you...never stopped being a bad guy, did...you...?"
"Nope!" Fate said cheerily. "After all, it's called 'befriending,' not 'begooding,' right, sweetie?" She leaned over and gave Nanoha a quick peck on the cheek. "But really, it's so cute of you to not notice!"
Heh, we won't even get into Chrono's outfit (though I know it's a nod to his Triangle Heart characterization...).  |
Fate's true allegience is revealed.

Syn grinned lightly when her knock on Vivio's door was answered almost at once. The smell of crab cakes came at once and her stomach growled rather loudly from it. "Um, hi." She greeted the blond, who was trying to repress a smile. "Something smells good."
"I thought it might be easier to talk over dinner." Vivio closed the door behind the girl and helped her take off her coat before hanging it up in the closet along with the long green scarf that followed.
"You love food don't you?" Syn went to the kitchen and inspected everything. "Every time we've gotten together lately it's been with something to eat."
Vivio hummed while thinking on it. "True, but you're the one who loves food, Miss Chef."
With a grin, the blue haired girl handed Vivio a spatula to flip the hamburger sized creations that were pan frying. "So, you sounded pretty eager to have me come over tonight to talk about things?"
"Mmmhmm, but it can wait for now. How was your day? I want to hear about this new job of yours. The... third one since we met?"
Syn blushed at the words. "Well, in my defense, I was only fired once. I quit my second job because I was scouted for this one."
"Scouted?" Vivio began to plate the finished food and offered one to Syn. "What do you mean?"
Taking the platter, the girl walked to the living room to sit on the floor across from each other at the coffee table. "Someone heard about the new menu at Wanyuu's and came to test it. They always scolded me for changing their recipes but it turned out good for me. I was offered a job right then and there. Now I make about double what I did before... It's nice, I actually have money to blow on things now."
"Congratulations." The proud tone made the blue haired girl avert her attention to the rapidly diminishing meal. "I'm proud."
"Thanks." Syn stuffed her mouth and was about to ask for a drink when Vivio sat back down with the glass offered to her. "I didn't even ask."
"I know. You're a weird person who eats first and then drinks."
"Anyway," Syn gulped down half of her drink at once and sighed out when done. "About you now?"
Reaching over, Vivio took their plates and placed them into the kitchen before sitting next to Syn when the couch was claimed. "What do you want to know about it?" When Syn looked hesitant, she gave a soft smile. "Just say it. Really, I know you're not trying to offend me... Right?" The girl felt a small bit of happiness at Syn's hesitance to speak before thinking.
"Right." Syn nodded. "Bluntly, how often do you have sex?"
"Depends. No, really," She waved off the look. "Sometimes I don't do it for an entire month and sometimes it's every day for almost two weeks. It just depends."
"You've been in that many scenes?"
"No, it's... how to explain... You see, it's not actual sex. It's acting, as in they shoot a section of it and if they don't like it, you re-do it."
"Why wouldn't they like it?"
"My hair gets in the way a lot. Or if my arm blocks the view of my breasts, sometimes they want me to moan more."
Syn blinked. "Seriously? They make you stop and re-shoot for that?"
"Oh yes. Sometimes it can take almost three hours to do one scene, and sometimes we do it multiple times to do different angles. My last DVD had four different angles in it, so in order to not have cameramen in the background I actually had to do the scene four different times. It took about two weeks."
"Why not do it all in one day?"
"You try having sex for more than three hours and lets see how eager you are to do it again." Vivio groaned. "It's work, Syn. Really. It doesn't feel good, sometimes it actually hurts to keep going. your joints get stiff from positions and let's not even get into oral scenes. You wouldn't believe how many times I had to stop for the day because I just couldn't go on."
Syn face palmed. "You know, I could have gone the rest of my life not knowing you get lockjaw from sucking too many-"
"Syn!" Vivio blushed darkly. "I'm trying to be serious here." Reaching over, she took both of the girl's hands. "Please. Look at it from my viewpoint. Can you see that it's work and not fun?"
"I... guess..." She sighed. "I just... I know that I will have to see it to fully understand it but I can't watch you like that..."
"Want to start smaller?" Vivio asked softly, getting a small nod. "Sit here..." She gave the hands a squeeze and went to her bedroom. After a few moments she came back and sat down with a flash drive. "Here..."
"What's on it?" Syn took the small device and looked it over. "One of your storage drives for work?"
"No, I keep those organized by month and for personal/home. That is... the backup of all my home recordings."
"What do you mean?"
Vivio gave a lopsided smile. "I have a webpage, and I record myself for them. A few of those...well a lot actually... are me with guys but there are a ton of me solo."
Syn looked at it. "What are you doing in them?"
"Name it."
"Seriously?" Syn blinked.
"Er, yeah... but." She retook Syn's hands. "I want you to see it. I want you to see what I do. See that I do it as a job, that I don't just go mindlessly..." She lowered her voice and said a word that started the letter "F", as if she was going to be scolded for saying it by someone. "So... watch some?"
Syn shifted in her seat. "I don't really know if I'll enjoy seeing you do this."
"I hope you do." She grinned, trying to make it less awkward. Getting a smile back, she leaned forward and hugged her. "Syn, please try to understand me. If you can get used to this-"
"I'll try." Syn hugged her back, pulling her closer. "I can't promise you anything but I'll look at some of these... But please understand that it might-"
"Push you farther away, I know." Vivio leaned away and smiled as best she could. "I want you to know that I'm waiting to sign a contract to farther my career."
"Why?"
"I'm hesitant."
"Why?"
"Because of you." Syn opened her mouth to respond but Vivio kept going. "I know, Syn, I know. But I can't help but hesitate. I want to do everything I can to try and make this work. I won't put all of this on your shoulders, I will work at it as well. I promise."
Syn felt a warmth seep into her and pulled Vivio to her once more. "Vivio?"
"Yes?"
"...Your hair smells really nice."
"...Thank you." Vivio closed her eyes and smiled.

Syn brought her knees up and wrapped her arms around them, placing her chin on the kneecaps while watching her laptop screen. She was on her bed, watching a video of her ex girlfriend with a mixed look of interest and something that she couldn't quite place. A small sigh escaped her lips as the video ended and started auto playing the next scene. 'It's so strange...' she thought to herself while the blond on the screen began an oral act on someone she didn't know. 'I'm not disgusted but at the same time...' She could feel that her face was blushing so much that even her ears felt hot. 'I'm not really MAD but...' Syn moved to lay on her stomach, cushioning her head onto her arms. 'I'm... a little bit aroused but... at the same time I'm not... Vivio doesn't... have that look in her eyes that I'm so used to seeing...'
A sudden ringing of her cell phone made the girl almost scream out, hastily closing her laptop down to cut off the loud sounds coming from it. After allowing herself a moment to settle down, she picked up the phone and flipped it open. "Hey Mom."
"Hey sweetie, how are you?" Her mother's voice came sweetly through the receiver.
"I'm... a little confused honestly."
"Oh, why is that?"
Syn fell onto her back and looked up at the ceiling. "Remember that girl I told you about?"
"The pornography actor?"
"Yes, her... Well... I kind of started talking to her again." Her mother stayed silent, seeing what would follow before she gave her advice. "You see... I'm..."
When her daughter seemed to be struggling, Elena spoke up. "You still like her?"
"No, yes, I don't know..." Syn looked at the closed laptop. "I'm... I feel... angry. Sad, but not like before. It's... I just don't know, I want to strangle everyone who looks at her."
"You're jealous." Syn stayed silent a moment so the mother went on. "Are you mad at Vivio or the profession she's in now?" Syn opened her mouth but closed it before licking her lips to clear her mind. "As sweet as you told me she was," Elena continued, "I would assume she keep her personal life away from her professional life. It is the same way in the military, fighting and killing and then coming home to hug your little girl."
Syn felt the connection in her mind click. "Yeah, but... People with her-"
"Syn-sweetie, are you mad at her or not?"
"I'm..." She looked down. "I'm not mad at her anymore... I don't think I've forgiven her just yet but..."
"So you like her as a person."
"...Yes, mom, I really like her. I wouldn't put myself through this if I didn't." A hand went to rub the bridge of her nose. "I just..."
"Can you separate her personal life from her job?"
"I honestly don't know."
"Have you ever heard 'Jump in cold turkey'?"
"What weird saying are you using now?" Syn rolled her eyes.
"It means to go in head first, to go all or broke."
"What are you telling me?"
Elena smiled. "See if you can deal with it before you go through all of this. If you get there, freak and spaz out, and can't do it, then you can call it quits. If you go through all this emotional stress and worry over it, only to accept her back but not be able to bear her profession, would you be happy?"
"...No."
"Then see what you can do. Find out what separates her from her job."
"... Thanks mom." Syn shook her head. "I'm sorry, I went off on my own problems, what are you calling for?"
Elena's voice suddenly got really happy. "I found the cutest dress and I wanted to see if you would wear it-"
"No. Goodbye mom." Syn smiled and flipped her phone shut as her mom laughed. "I swear, I'm not a dress up doll..." Her hand went back to the laptop before stopping to hover above it. 'Maybe... I should watch these with her. To see how comfortable we are about it.... Yeah, I'll do that.' Her phone was opened again and she pressed Vivio's speed dial, only to get her voice mail. 'I wonder where she is?' Her phone was closed without leaving a message. 'I'll go out and get dinner and then call again.'
Syn made her way to her door, grabbing a jacket and putting it on before stepping into the outside world. A small envelope in the mailbox next to her door made her stop briefly to pluck it out. 'What? It's from Vivio?' The letter was opened and she had to catch a large shining purple ticket that fell from it. Her vision went to it first, reading it in her mind. 'Special V.I.P. guest pass from Eyes.' She blinked and looked at the letter.
Syn,
I'm working on Watersday this week at a club known as Peaches. I'll be pole dancing and stripping as well as private shows in the champagne room. I was going to ask if you wanted to come watch me work but I thought asking in person might pressure you into saying yes so I mailed this. It would mean a lot to me if you came to see me. I want you to see my job and let you know what I do, how I work. This ticket will get you past the line at the door, just show it to the bouncer and you'll be brought to the stage side seating. Free drinks and even food, just show this ticket. It's at seven at night.
-Love,
Vivio/ Eyes
Syn re-read the letter and groaned. 'That's tonight, that stupid girl.' A look at her watch made her realize that Vivio's act would start within the next two hours. 'I don't even know how to get to that club.' The letter was re-folded but she stopped when she say a map drawn on the back of it. After staring at it for several long moments, she let out a pleased, amused smile. 'I'd need a GPS navigation system to understand this map...
Spoiler for PornStar!Vivio pt.42 (this one is very NSFW. STill AS safe, but NSFW.:
Almost two hours passed before Syn finally pulled into the parking lot of the strip club stationed a few towns over from the city they lived in. Despite a small flurry of snow lightly coating everything outside, a long line of people were standing next to the building waiting to get in. 'I've seen lines at clubs before but never strip clubs... But then again, most strip club I've seen from the outside were crappy little run down joints...' Following the line, she ignored the people staring at her and found the entrance where a large man who was almost twice the size of her was standing. "Excuse me?" Syn asked politely, getting glared at hard. "Ah... I was told to show you this?" She produced the brightly colored ticket and was quickly treated with much more respect. A person was called over to her and she was ushered inside the club.
Allowing her jacket to be taken to a special closet, she blinked at everything around her. Music was playing in the background but wasn't overpowering like most places. She was shown to a cushioned leather couch and before she could even say anything someone came to ask if she wanted a drink or something to eat. Although she was a little shocked by it, she still got a bottle of an alcoholic malt beverage brought to her by a topless girl wearing only a thong. "Whoa..." She took the bottle and the girl sat down next to her, fawning over the blue haired one. "Um, hi."
"Hey there sexy," She replied, getting closer. "So you're here for Eyes, huh? Sure you wouldn't want me to keep you company?" The girl grinned and put a hand on Syn's leg.
"Ah, well, haha..." For the first time she was actually at a loss for words. "I'd... rather see Vi,er, Eyes." She got a pout but a nod anyway. "She is about to be on stage." The girl smiled at her and winked. "If you want to have fun later, call for me."
Syn coughed and straightened her shirt, blushing as her eyes looked around to take in everything. Right in front of her was a long stage, complete with three poles. The main one was in the middle and two more were off to the side, one of which was only a few feet from her seat. Neon purple lights were everywhere, matched with other dim lights that gave enough room to see everything but still seemed to offer a little privacy from everyone around.
Despite the club being packed to the brim, Syn found herself comfortably alone on her side. A few others were nearby on their own love seats but had two girls on each of them, doing things that Syn wasn't sure about the legality of it all.
When the music suddenly got louder and lights focused on the stage, Syn felt her jaw drop at the sight of Vivio walking out. A voice came over the speakers introducing Eyes to the crowd- which was sudden flocking to the stage holding up bills. Allowing her eyes to take it in, Syn stared at her friend. Sparkling body glitter was barely applied to the girl, showing off the parts of skin that was exposed around the extremely short school girl uniform. A brown skirt with a white top covered by a vest was what was worn, completed by white thigh high stockings.
Vivio grinned at everyone and grabbed the main pole with her left hand, swaying her body around it to a loud beat of the song. Twirling, she put her back to it and wiggled her hips while sinking down with her legs parted. One hand went to the best and unbuttoned the top clasp, licking her lips as people started screaming louder. The second button was undone and the vest was discarded. Vivio took the pole in her hand again and held on as she bent backwards to flash her panties.
Syn swallowed thickly, eyes locked onto the girl and the slow removal of clothes. The shirt was ripped open when the song got louder and the lights started flashing to the beat. A white bra was revealed and the torn shirt was thrown on stage. The red and blue eyed girl felt her breath catch as Vivio jumped on the pole, looped one leg around it, and twirled down only to stop near the floor and go into the splits. Crawling slightly, she grinned at some of the people by the stage and took their money, slowly moving her body up to show them her bra as she undid the clasp. Now topless, Vivio moved back to her pole and swayed with the song's rhythm, dancing in perfect harmony despite the cries and pleading from the crowd.
After a moment, Syn finally got off the couch and walked to the empty section of the stage, by the secluded pole, and watched. Her friend was moving faster as the song sped up, now sporting several bills in her stockings and skirt falling to the floor. Syn reached into her pocket and pulled out a bill, folding it in half longways like everyone else, and took a breath. "Hey, Eyes!"
Vivio seemed to pick out the voice at once, looking over at Syn's area quickly. To the VIP's surprise, a sudden true smile came on the dancer's lips. Green and red eyes seemed to shine more as she swayed over to the side pole and swung around it. Her body moved to the beat while her vision stayed locked on her friend's face. The movements were made quicker now, mouth open in a happy smile and small laugh. Finally she moved over to Syn and leaned down, spinning in front of her and reaching for her panties, wiggling her rear right in front of her. Sparkling happy eyes looked back at her and she beamed as Syn slid the bill into her stockings. The panties were removed and tossed on Syn's head before she waved happily and moved back to the center stage, finishing her song with enthusiasm. Vivio slid around the pole, grabbing it and rocking her body against in an erotic manor. She made one more round around the crowd and plucked several more bills before looking at Syn one last time. She gave the girl one more pleased wink as she strutted off the stage.
Syn flushed and sat back down on the couch, looking at the innocent white lace in her hands. Despite herself, she couldn't help but smile. A small, lopsided grin paired with a chuckle. 'That was... rather funny actually.' She put them into her pocket and took a long drink from her bottle while waiting for her friend to come back to her.
Spoiler for PornStar!Vivio pt.43:
In the back room, Vivio hummed a small tune to herself as she put on the work uniform she had for the night. She kept her snow white stockings and garter but now had a matching lace pair of panties and bra covered with a sheer long sleeve material that floated around her whenever she moved. A matching garter belt clung around her stomach with clip going to to her legs to fasten to the fabric there. Her hair was quickly put up in a side ponytail to keep out of her way and she looked herself over in a mirror before nodding. 'A little slutty for my taste, but this IS a strip joint after all.'
"Hey Eyes, nice show!" A random black haired girl called to her as the porn star came out into the lobby for the girls. "You have a guest who wants to buy you the most expensive bottle of champagne we offer."
"Eh?" Vivio blinked. "I can't right now, I have a V.I.P. waiting on me." To her left she heard a red haired girl scoff. "What?"
"You think you're so hot?" The woman got off the couch and walked over to her. "We normally fight over people like that and here you come, flaunting your little ass and shrugging off offers like they're nothing."
The first girl spoke again. "Don't start with the guest, Bunny."
Bunny, apparently the stage name of the girl, crossed her arms. "It just pisses me off to have her come in and be treated like a queen. I'll go take her customer."
"Too bad," The girl shook her head. "He wants Eyes. He is in room number three, don't keep him waiting okay? He paid for half an hour." She handed the reluctant blond a chilled bottle of champagne. "Go give him a lap dance and a blow job, you'll get at least a thousand dollars for it easily."
Vivio sighed. "I'll go but I have no intention of doing anything other than dancing and sweet talking. Send Bunny over there to get on her knees, her face could sure use some improvement." She heard several girls 'oooh' at her on her way out.
Bunny glared at the girl as she left and then looked out the one-way mirror onto the floor and smirked at the blue haired girl sitting by herself. "If she wants to be so hot, I'll just got take her V.I.P."
"Bunny, don't start shit with her, she was invited here!"
"Too bad!" Bunny glared and pushed the girl's hand off of her shoulder. "If she is so goody-goody then I'd love to see her face when she sees me between that girl's legs." She grabbed a bottle of cheap champagne out of the ice tray and walked out onto the floor, heading straight for Syn.
