- Healing Start
Lina rubbed her eyes as she, Nanoha, Yuuno, Fate, Hayate and Reinforce were at a fairly open, and empty, due to it being so early in the morning, park. "So, this is..." She trailed off as a song started to ring. "Alright, who has my phone number?" She asked as she reached into her pocket and pulled out a cell phone. "Hello? Oh, hello, Zest. How'd you get this number? Uh huh, okay... Yeah, we're at the park. What park? It's close to my home, as far as I know, it never had a name, it's near the train station, about two blocks north and five blocks west. Yeah, you can have your friend come down here. We'll be here most of the day. Okay, see you two then." She nodded and hung up the phone. "Well, that was interesting." She blinked at the looks she was getting. "What?"
"When did you have a cell?" Hayate asked, scratching her head and Lina actually face-faulted.
"Well, that's the first time I got that question asked. As for the phone, I've had it for awhile. Just never really had a use for it." Lina shook her head as she stood up. "Alright, first things first, Nanoha, your body should be purged of the lingering effects, so, Yuuno, heal her, as for you, Hayate..." Walking over to the brunette, Lina put her hand on Hayate's forehead. "Hmm... Looks like... Oh, that's all?"
Hayate blinked and gasped as Lina's left eye started to glow, even through her glamour, and a pulling sensation overcame her body. She blinked in shock as Lina held a ball of energy that was pulsating softly. "What the?"
Lina shrugged. "Just a reminder not to use Chaos magic when you're heavily injured. Anyway, as soon as Yuuno's done with Nanoha, he can heal you as well."
"I can do that." Reinforce told her. "Fate did have the basis for Resurrection when I got her magic."
Lina nodded and bit her lower lip to keep from saying anything. After all, Reinforce really was sorry for what happened in the past and there really was no point in getting upset about it. No one got seriously hurt and that was all that really mattered in the end.
"Hey, mom..." Fate asked as she looked at Lina. "What was that song that I heard?"
Lina blinked and thought about it. "Oh, my ring tone?" Fate nodded and Lina chuckled. "Wow, it's been awhile but the song is Get Along, why?"
"Sounded neat, that's all." Fate looked at Nanoha and Hayate, who were glowing slightly due to the healing spells being used on them. "How come you didn't have them healed before?"
"So their bodies could recover more naturally." Was Lina's response. "Even though we could heal them fully, it's better for them to let their bodies do some work." She winked at her adopted daughter. "After all, we don't want their bodies becoming lazy and not working to get better if they get scrapes, bruises, small cuts or a cold, right?"
"You mean you could have had us capable of walking at any time?" Hayate asked as she stood up and stumbled forward. She would have fallen had Reinforce not grabbed her and stopped her fall.
"No, not at any time." Lina smiled while softly shaking her head. "I don't like messing with Chaos unless I have to, and you were both injured, burned out and using Chaos magic back in that battle, Hayate."
"How do you know?" Hayate blinked in confusion, Lina hadn't been there, how did she know?
"I told her." Reinforce spoke softly. "I wanted to know why neither I nor Shamal could heal you while we were at home."
"Speaking of Shamal-san, where are your knights, Hayate?" Nanoha asked as she took a tentative step out of her wheel chair. "Wow... It...OWW!" Nanoha yelped as her legs gave out and she collapsed to the ground.
"Nanoha!" Yuuno grabbed her before she fell completely. "I'm sorry, I should have been paying more attention."
"Nyahaha..." Nanoha whimpered softly. Her legs felt so weak it wasn't funny. "I wasn't able to use my legs for how long again?"
"About two months." Yuuno answered her. "It took about three weeks before the wedding."
"Still surprised that we were able to get a ride back to Earth so fast." Lina shook her head. "Anyway, the point of today is... Being able to walk on your own." She laughed at the looks she was given. "Actually, that's for Nanoha and Hayate. Fate, you're to work on your sword forms until Shiro or Miyuki joins us." Fate nodded and she looked at Yuuno. "As for you, you can do whatever you want to Yuuno." Lina shrugged, but mentally smiled when Yuuno said he'd help Nanoha out until her legs stopped hurting so much and she could at least walk slowly.
Lina shook her head and looked at Fate as she held a wooden training sword and went through some motions. "Here, Fate..." Lina grabbed a second one from a nearby bench. "Let me spar with you."
"Are you sure?" Fate asked as she looked at Lina, who was taking a stance in front of her.
Lina chuckled softly. "Oh, I'm not too bad with a sword. Don't forget, I came from a world where sword-fighting was just as important as magic."
Fate nodded and squeezed her sword as she stepped to the side and slowly started to circle her mother.
(---)
"Remind me again, Reinforce..." Hayate groaned as her legs threatened to give out on her. "Why am I doing this?"
Reinforce sighed heavily. "Because I promised you that if you went through this training, I would model those nearly transparent lingerie for you at any time when we were at home." Hayate's eyes gleamed in delight and Reinforce sighed again. "And I would let you have at my chest more than I do now."
Hayate grinned as she stood up straighter. Even as her legs threatened to give out on her, she pointed up at the sky. "Then, mark my words, Reinforce Yagami, I, Hayate Yagami, will complete this training and do all sorts of things with you!"
It would have been totally dramatic, even for such a perverted saying, had Hayate's legs not given out on her at that moment and made her crash to the ground.
Reinforce just sweat-dropped heavily. "Why does the father of my child have to be so openly perverted?"

Nice touch with the ringtone.
For the record, I blame you for the mess of coffee now dripping down my wall. I haven't laughed like that in a good while and Reinforce's line is just so perfect. The interactions between her and Hayate amuse me to no end.
I continue to look forward to future chapters.

P.S. Sorry for not reviewing from the start - nice start, Old Iron, I hope you muse wouldn`t leave you.

No worries and thanks.
My muse won't leave me anytime soon if all goes according to plan. I have certain... methods to keep it around.
