Best to resort to a little white lie.

“I feel a bit homesick, I guess.”

Fate kept staring at me, she didn’t buy it. “You look worse then ‘a bit homesick’ you’re feeling horrible, aren’t you?”

I kept quiet, not wanting to answer the question.

“Nanoha…” Oh no… her tone had shifted from stern to worried, and her eyes… not the trembling worry eyes!

I averted my head, not wanting to meet Fate-chan’s worried eyes. Those eyes always manage to make me feel guilty if I lie about how I feel.

Having my head averted, I couldn’t see what Fate was doing, but I did feel two arms embracing me.

“You are feeling homesick.” Fate said with a sigh. “I’ve known you for years now Nanoha, there is no way you wouldn’t feel horrible after suddenly being without your family.” I turned back to face Fate-chan as she slowly let go. “But don’t worry, you’re not alone. You have friends, new friends, who will support you. Comfort you. So just talk to us if you feel like you need to.”

I mulled over Fate’s statement in my head. She was right. Fate-chan has always been by my side, since as long as I can remember. Hayate-chan I met only yesterday, but she already treats me like we were together since kindergarden, and Yuuno-san offered to help me even though we had only talked for an hour.

But… aren’t I a burden to them?

“Nanoha, let’s hurry or we’ll be late.” Fate-chan reminded me.

Placing a smile on my face, I nodded to Fate and hurried to class.

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

Lunchtime arrived, and just as I tried to get up and out of the classroom, a hand grabbed my shoulder.

“Nanoha-chan.” Hayate-chan’s voice came from my left. “Did you bring lunch today?”

I blinked.

I had completely forgotten to pack my lunch this morning. I really had nothing to eat.

“I thought so.” Hayate-chan said with a grin. “Here, you can have some of mine.”

“Thanks.” I said with a smile as she shoved our two desks together and paced her lunchbox in the middle. She offered me a pair of sticks and we dug in. The lunchbox was quite rich, a mix of rice, vegetables, meat, and really delicious too.

“Did you cook this in the cooking club?”

“No, this one I made at home. I usually cook at home. Shamal tries too but… she’s not too good at it.” Hayate giggled.

“Wow, I don’t think I can do that. I mean, I can cook since my parents owned a cake restaurant, but to cook every night…”

“I could show you. Remember, the offer to come to my place still stands.”

“… I’ll think about it.”

I turned my head back to the lunch. I didn’t miss the flash of concern that passed through Hayate’s eyes, though.

Another person worried for me.

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

At the end of the day, school wasn’t that bad; even though I still felt horrible I managed to get through.

Living alone was definitely a lot harder then I expected it to be. I thought ‘what’s the big deal? I’ve been home alone before when my parents and siblings were all out to do their own thing’ but it’s a lot harder then that. I miss my family. I miss my mother, my father, my brother, my sister. I wanted them back, I wanted my old life back.

I snuck out of class before Fate-chan had another chance to catch me. I really appreciate what she is doing, but all I am now is a burden. During classes she got called on by the teachers several times for not paying attention.

I don’t want that.

I looked at my watch. 15:30, I should decide what to do for dinner soon. I could make something myself, which means I’ll have to get ingredients from the store. I can also settle for a takeout, which means I’ll have a few more hours to myself. Though… Hayate also said I could come over anytime I like.

A.) I’ll go buy ingredients and cook myself a nice meal.
B.) … Hayate practically invited me over tonight; I can’t really decline, can I?
C.) A meal at Hayate’s place sounds nice.
D.) I’m going to take a nice stroll through town, and order some takeout at the end of the day.

Spoiler for Keroko's Corner:

You are standing on what looks like the bridge of a spaceship, judging by the viewports all around you. If you look at the bridge, you see a two lowered areas, where people are wildly buzzing around taking care of the ship. In the middle of the two lowered areas is a bridge, obviously for the superior officers to keep an eye on their troops. A hiss comes from the other end of the room, and a steel door opens. A blue eyed girl with red hair tied in a ponytail on the right side of her head walks onto the bridge and smiles at you.

"Welcome to Keroko's Corner. In this place we give out hints and tips to the game. These hints may help you get better relations, or avoid any 'bad endings' that may occur from your choices. If you would rather not use this help, and you don't have to, you can just close the spoiler tag and vote. Anyway, on to the subject at hand.

You're at an interesting junction right now. Nanoha is not feeling well, but, Nanoha being Nanoha she doesn't want to 'burden' others into letting them help her. She needs a strong person to break through her thick skull and tell her that she is not burdening anyone. Fate, while a close friend, is not a strong enough person to do so.

Oh, and a little warning when choosing: The intent with the choice will shape the motivation Nanoha has for aproaching the situation, which will change the way people will react to her."

The girl salutes.

"Good luck."

Sorry to reply late you story, I have been a little busy
I shall choose B

Here, this is how Fate's day went today

Spoiler for Fate's day at work! (6th D kinda):

Sometimes I got bored. Yes, I'll admit it. I, Fate Testarossa, got bored. Currently I was in my office, with my door shut and blinds closed, leaning back in my chair. A pen was balanced between my upper lip and nose while I simply thought about nothing in general. Several monitors were floating around me but I didn't really care. I hated desk work. Badly. Hayate knew this, and my work output reflected it.

That's why I had three secretaries.

Who were all sick with the flu.

Damn flu.

I pondered dinner tonight, one eye glancing to the monitor surveying the training field. Nanoha was doing a mock battle with everyone, brow focused and eyes stern. Five-on-one battles really taxed her, specially since all her students were ranked B now. Except for Lutecia, she had made it to A+ rank. The though was made obvious by a sudden darkness surrounding my wife. Oh my,my, Nanoha, A swarm of beetles. Have fun with that.

Oh, yes, dinner. I had been thinking about that hadn't I? Nanoha would probably be tired so a nice meal... We haven't had steak in ages. That's it, I'll grill some steaks on our patio... some baked potatoes! and a salad... and some garlic bread. Oh lord I loved garlic bread. So much so. garlic bread, garlic crutons for my salad, maybe some garlic and cracked peppercorn marinade for steaks...

Too much, Fate, too much.

My eyes stared through the window displays that had been on the same page for several minutes now. What was I supposed to do again? Oh yes, read over them and approve or disapprove. Normally my secretary Kha did this kind of thing. Read the entire 20-page notice, highlight the interesting parts, and I'd spend all of five minutes skimming and signing. Damn Kha, why are you sick?

I felt a thump on my nose and almost screamed in shock from it. Luckily I held it in, but was sweating instantly and panting while looking up at Hayate. Oh my, she didn't look pleased.

I was getting scolded. Guilt trip scolded. The kind where you think 'Man I really shouldn't have done that.' kind of scolded. Oh well, Hayate was by best friend so after it was over I simply invited her for dinner and we were on good terms again.

Although she still won't let me patrol the town until my paper work was done.

Now I was chewing my pen, a really really bad habit I had. I always had to do something with my mouth. chew pens, chew gum, bite my nails, blow pops were the best, candy... I want some candy. Fortunetly I had a candy drawer, and I raided a cherry starburst from it to sate my fixation.

Two more hours. Come on clock, hurry up. Or at least give me a scramble warning. A few drones, some moron trying to rob a bank...anything! Well, not anything, I don't want anyone to get hurt... A car chase would be good, though. On the highway. during the slow time of the day. Oh yes, that sounds fun.

My ear buds were retrieved from another drawer and placed in my ears lazily. Nice music started to play through my MP3 player of choice, that was not an iPod. I nodded my head to the music while reading the documents in front of me without taking it in.

I hated desk work.

My thoughts were interrupted when someone knocked on my door. I bid them entrance and chatted with them a few moments before following them to a floor beneath me to scold the people who were caught playing games on their computers instead of working. I gave the two a rather loud earful, being sure they thought twice of it before attempting to do such things on a military base again.

Somewhat satisfied, I returned to my desk and actually worked seriously for the rest of the day. Nothing like a good yelling to put me back in the right frame of mind.

When Nanoha knocked on my door I smiled fondly at her. She smiled back happily and came over to me, helping me up from my chair. At one her hands went to my stomach and grinned. True, I was getting plump, but it was still way too early for our baby to be making motions hard enough to be felt. She didn't mind, though, and she bent over to kiss my stomach before kissing me.

Time to cook for my wife, and enjoy a nice evening at home.

Every time I read your storyes, you surpriseme more and more, althoug my specialitation are action and mysterius storyes, your cutes and lovely storyes get a smile out of my face ALWAYS

Congragulations Amigo, keep that way!

Although I'm still hoping for a Yuunoha ending, I can experiment :3

I never realized how a calm day, the sounds of water splashing, the sounds of the birds flying you, the sounds of daily life pass by, the beautiful voice (and body) of the tour guide as she rows your gondola across the Grand Canal can heal your tired body and soul...

Ahh... Neo Venezia is Bliss...

Spoiler for Fanfic Snippet: ARIA ~The Sonata~ | Mixed with a bit of Nanoha:

As Amy went on to the Market to pick up the bread, Alyssa was tending to the gondola, brushing away the dirt from the floor and seats, as well as making sure the ropes tying the gondola to the palina were tight- being newly promoted to a Single was like a chance to shine. The President in the meantime as napping near the bow, a bubble appearing the disappearing per each breath.

At another end, we see two newly arrived tourists to the planet of water. One had short almost boyish golden hair, while the other had long flowing violet hair. Both were taking in the sights of the seemingly surreal world, "old" Renaissance-era buildings mixed with flying spaceships in the sky, as well as the floating island.

"So this is Aqua..." the blonde commented.

"Yes it is Arisa..." the long violet remarked. "And if i'm not mistaken..." she then said, pointing to the white gondolas at the waterfront.

"Undines, Suzuka... Undines. Let's hire one..."

While those two are up to something, we turn back to Alyssa. So far, her joint practices with Ai and Almaria had been great- the two yet to have "a picnic" with their senior mentors. She hummed a happy tune as she now picked up the oar, with its characteristic purple triangle painted at the end. She began her mock practice of letting customers on the gondola, attempting to grasp the style of her idolized Prima, Akari.

"Dear Customer, please lend me your hand..." she acted, a bit off Akari's style and a bit of Amy's, with eyes closed though- since it was the first time.

"Eh?" a sudden voice came in, prompting her to open her eyes.

"EH?!!"

It was the tourist named Arisa, with her fellow Suzuka behind her.

"Uhm..." Alyssa tired to work her way out of a potentially bad situation.

"Ano..." both blondes now tried to speak, but were suprised.

"Huh?" Suzuka could only stare at bewilderment.

"Why do you..." Arisa could only ask.

"Sound like..." Alyssa followed.

"Me?!!"

And then, the bubble on President Yuu's nose popped.

"Nya~"

Time for some mystery...

Spoiler for Before Rize of Tecno-Union:

BEFORE RIZE OF TECNO-UNION
VIVIO

It was something like 12.00pm, the training with the new recluts have take to long time, Fate and Vivio were alredy sleep when I arrive the apartment, they look so pretty, I don't wanted to awake them so I change my clothes silently and get into the bed slowly trying to not disturb they dream, once again I stop to see how beautifull they look.

Vivio looked like an angel when she was sleeping, Fate holded her with her arms, so lovely and kind, I could pass all the night just wathing them, but suddenly, the angelical expresion on Vivio's face change to a face of fear, she starts shaking and sweating, instantly I knew she was having a nightmare.

The shakes of Vivio awake Fate "Uh... Nanoha? What..."
I just put my finger in my lips "Shhh...", and point Vivio. I sugest to leave her, with the hope that will be just a short bad dream and she will return to her angelical dream... I was wrong

The thing get worse, she stared to scream, still in her Nightmare. "No... no... Get away! Don't... don't hurt me... mama... please... make her go away... please... no... help me!... Mama, please help me!..."

I couldn't resist any longer and I awake her, she got up and started crying, Fate and I try to calm her, telling her that it was just a bad dream, she told us that a Horrible woman was trying to hurt her, we told her that that woman was not real, that she was just a nightmare. By the moment I don't give much importance to that dream, after all, all kids have nightmares with monsters, like the one that is under the bed or inside the closet, but in the upcoming days it get repited, most of the nights Vivio awake like the same way, crying and shaking, and always it was that horrible woman who chase her and try to hurt her.

One day, fate got the idea of asking Vivio to make a draw of that woman. "That way, we will know how she looks, and so if she appear, Nanoha Mama and Fate mama will kick out that horrible woman and so she will never scary Vivio again" She said, Vivio say yes andstart making the draw, Fate and I expected to see a monster from a movie or a cartoon, but when Vivio ended the draw and Fate looked at it, she got pale.

Fate put the draw on the desk, kiss Vivio in the front and told her "Don't worry... We will never let her hurt you... "I take the draw and look it, I was shocked, the image was horrible, and nothing that I have watched before...

"Don't need to be scaryed Vivio" I told her "It is just a bad dream..."

"It's just a bad dream..."

You know it's amazing how many pages get filled in the span of a couple of days on the forums. I read through the whole forum from beginning to end. So much time...

Yes but did they read the old thread as well? Although they're only worthy of admiration once they enter the realm of impossibility and Krack that is OC

Oh btw, welcome to the thread markesellus

yeah! you fools! Nanoha needs takeout! What if Shamal cooks? Did you even stop to think about that? It would be game over!

But takeout's bad for you... (in large quanties)

I'll refrain from voting since I'm not really interested in the pairings that will happen.

I'm too used to dying in a Bad End to bother I guess. Shirou died so many times under my hands.

It also means we can start over and unlock other characters using a different route.

[Sam the Onion]

No backlog today as I'm pretty busy.

Spoiler for Scenarios 60 & 61:

The man was the calmest person ever with lifetask to kill people and only walked around with his hands in his robe and hood on. For some reason he had strange red fire aura around him, but it seemed to be only illusions. He didn't check his sides, behind or even front and seemed to sing something facing the ceiling.

Still it was impossible to strike him.

There was hundreds of blades, shields, hammers.. everything spinning around him. All absorbed magic that came in contact with them and faster than I could run. Not to mention they were all physical. It's as if Selshin magic wasn't magic in the first place, but something to kill other mages with.

But that couldn't be right.

”Nan-chan, Tenchi, you're not really doing your job are you?” He stopped singing and began searching us. Nanoha-san was hidden behind a pillar near him as was I.

”Well, you're doing pretty good at defensing.” Nanoha complimented from her hideout.

”Why, thank you. You think I should go offense as you won't?” He taunted.

It wasn't hard for me to hate him. He was arrogant, annoying and too calm.

”Knock yourself out. Maybe we get a change then.” I answered. The second he would drop his defense down, I would break that bond.

The black monk just laughed.

His strangely polytonic voice distorts into laughter like no-other. ”That funny?”

”But I really don't want to.” He groaned. Like a boy in puberty, his voice rocks from one extreme to another, reminding a strange union of bass and violin.

”Well what do you want then?”

”What do I want?” The annoying voice became louder like he had expected this question. ”I want life as a human, my family, a cane, A monologue!” His voice echoed around the room.

Ridiculous.

”Haha~” Nanoha forced a laugh or atleast I hope it was forced. ”You're pretty interesting. Once we're done here, how about you come to RF6? We can give half of those.”

”Ah damn... there went my monologue... now it's a bilogue.”

Was he really that stupid? I would have imagined the elite of Selshin a bit different, but this would only make our job easier, so I wasn't complaining. ”Get on with it already. We don't have all day.” I tried to make him drop his defense.

”In a hurry, are we? I better get going then.” The items picked up speed and the music-like harmony of the blades created a qentle wind in the hall. The wind was perfectly balanced between calmness and power, making my hair flutter like nothing else.

A dazzling sound of Nanoha's boosted barrier came from her direction.
This would be my change!

-Fake Silhouette- I casted and from behind every pillar, two illusion Teana ran towards the monk in the center. I had never casted this many illusion before, let alone maintained them, but I guess situations like this bring out the true form in people.

[Dagger Form] Every Cross Mirage transformed into an orange energy dagger.

”Oh...” He noticed his demise. Stangely enough, even that quiet mutter seemed like it echoed.

He didn't even get to turn his head before I had him in my range.

Every illusion had reached the black figure at the same time and sliced every spot in his body. I personally made sure he didn't live after my slice.

”What the...?” He vanished.

”Doppelgänger. A shadow copy.” A voice behind my explained.

When did he...?

A swarm of black items hit me and drained my barrier jacket away almost in an instant.

What's wrong with these shadows!? I can't win! Nobody can!

Two black round shadows came and hit my sides with a crack. Third hit quickly to my back and rammed me all the way to the other end's wall. I knew the wall was hard and reinforced with metal and now that I saw it closer, it indeed was something like metal. Nothing like normal metal thought as it had something black all over it.

"'Teana!"' I heard Nanoha-san yell in my mind. The pain was strangely tingling. I would have imagined that cracking ribs would be more painful. Perhaps I was too numb to feel anything.

”Nice plan.” He praised, walking towards me slowly followed by a rhytmic sound of wooden shoes. It would have been calming in any other situation, but now I could only think how it would end my life.

Was this really it?

”I try to make it quick.” I think I heard something else. Nanoha-san shot something, but it didn't last long. I couldn't even turn my head because of the force on my back.

I don't want to die.

I could feel something enter my hand. It felt like millions of needles pierced my palms and then wrapping my hands in tight gloves, almost like not to let blood flow throught the tiny holes.

”Aaaaargh...” I screamed from the pain. Was this the first time I even let a sound?

My back was released from the pressure and I was now kept airborne by the gloves.

Slowly he turned me around. My arms were about to rip out of their sockets in this pseudo crusified position, but I was too numb to feel the pain. Finally I was going to see his face up close.

What would it be like?

It was crying. Small tears ran through his cheeks as an apology. He couldn't fight the bond with his actions so he showed it like this. Even that he had tears running throught his face, his deep violet eyes showed no emotion. It was as if he had been looking a failed art piece, which he had poured all of his heart in.

Yet finishing it didn't bring him any joy.

”Yo-you don't have to do this...” I managed to splurt out. Pain had numbed all my senses and that was everything I could say.

Even that his face was crying, his voice was just as it was when we got here. I missed those times.

”You don't deserve to die here.” He smiled and with his rising arm multiple weapons aimed at me behind him. ”But some things just don't go like you wanted.” His arm dropped.

I'm scared.

”Vita-chan. You look cornered.” Linque smirked, circulating the trapped warriors.

”Tsk...” Vita cursed her back against Subaru.

The room was almost complitely filled with blue and yellow lights. Touching one with finger would lead to losing it. They were slices and stabs trapped in time, ready to strike on contact.

Linque on the other hand walked freely in the light show. Maybe it was because of the flaming green aura around him.

Vita and Subaru couldn't even fight back, they were fully occupied in tries to stop the man from taking the little of space there was in the small room, which had a constant wind in it as stored slices and stabs were released from being kept too long.

"'Subaru, we need to keep him where he is for 7 minutes. That is his limit for storing."' Vita adviced from experience telepathically.

"'How? He can always leap back and force us stay here."' She stated. The space Vita and Subaru were cornered was in the middle of the room and even smaller than a forward's room.

"'Hit him unconsious then. He can't keep these things up like that."' Vita explained again.

"'He is consciously keeping all these lights up!? That's madness!"'

"'Madness? This is Selshin."' Vita corrected and casted: -Schwalbe Fliegen-

Subaru ducked when Vita swung her mallet at the four silver balls. They flew quickly towards the man walking around the small area.

But the balls were easily sliced in mid-air by blue lights, which were then replaced by new ones.

”I'm still waiting for those new tricks.” He laughed and sliced the air again leaving blue lights behind.

”As am I.” Vita stroke back.

Linque had always been like this. Rarely fighting directly but slowly and surely trapping his enemies and then killing them when they couldn't run.

"'Vita. I think, I could get us out from this area with wing road."' Subaru remembered.

"'Stop asking for such things and DO it!"'

-Wing Road- Subaru casted and a blue road filled with insignias rose from the ground and led over the blue wall.

”That's new.” Linque watched the two woman run over him on the newly formed road. ”But that's not your trick, Vita-chan.” He tilted his head, smiling obnoxiously.

Without a word Vita readied herself for another area battle.

”If you can do that I better start doing something myself.” He shook his head and all the lights gradually vanished, creating a disturbting wind in the now dark room.

-Abyss Move: Sostenuto- Linque casted and began running, althought he didn't move. It looked ridiculous and Subaru had hard time trying not to laugh.

”DODGE!” Vita kicked Subaru from the gust of wind that went past them leaving a blue stream on Vita's leg. ”Ugh...”

The man now on the other side turned around unsatisfied. ”You saw through it. You've improved.”

”Storing run speed on yourself and releasing it all at once.” She deducted from the move.

”Nice.” Subaru praised, getting a commanding glare from Vita.

”But that's not all.” He appeared in front of Vita. ”There's no limit how much I can store in myself or how I can release it.”

Despite the sudden move, Vita managed to block the man's swift initial strikes and continue doing it.

"'DO something!"' She ordered as she was constantly pushed back and realied too heavily on her barrier.

-Abyss Move: Ambidextrous- Linque casted again now slowing his arms.

”No...” Vita's eyes widened as the cut in her leg was used and Linque's arms dissapeared from extreme speed.

”Vita!”

The warrior fell on her knees before the man. Her barrier jacket was rippled and she was bleeding from multiple places.

-Divine Buster!- Subaru yelled loading multiple cartridges.

Linque showed no preperation and appeared far away from the blast.

”And I got plenty of movement stored in myself.” He smiled appearing now in front of Subaru.

-Protection!- She screamed, extending her arm towards the man.

”Tsk... Barrier freaks...” He cursed -Barrier Hit: Echoplex- and swung his blades at the barrier, ignoring it and slicing Subaru's left hand.

But there was no pain, nor was there blood flowing. Only blue streams on her arm.

Linque quickly moved away and released his strike.

”Aaagh...” Both of them screamed.

Linque took the barriers strike in his hands and Subaru's wound opened bleeding deeply.

[Gigantform] A gigantic hammer hit Linque to head.

”Ah... I was careless.” The hammer was stopped complitely.

”What?!” Vita wondered, moving her hammer away to see what had happened.

-Messa Di Voce- Linque sang briefly.

Linque's head was all red. But not from blood. It was the power of the blow stored in his head waiting for release.

”So now I got 7 minutes before I have lost...” He laughed. ”Better get serious.”

-Schlangenform- He casted and spun his blades around his finger leaving a constant blue stream behind. Like a dancer he spun around and eventually dissapeared into the blue light.

”Schlangenform...?” Vita stuttered from safe distance.

After a while, the long blue stream returned to his blades like pulled by something. An undescribeable light flashed in his hands and he did the same with spiked saws.

Another flash turned the saws back to the swords, that were now followed by loose green light. Somehow it resembled a wide blade whip.

”Now...” Linque stopped. ”...I'll be serious.” He said, swinging his blade and made the green blade extend towards Vita with ludicrous speed.

By sheer instinct she attempted to block the hit but it went straight through her weapon and pierced the wall behind her, missing her head only by inches.

”My blade defiles reality. Your weapon is nothing to it.” Linque closed his eyes and gave the blade a tiny shake, which led to a massive twist by the time reached the other end.

But Vita was already far away thinking what to do against unblockable, blinding fast, long range sword that could twist mid-air.

”You copied that from Signum?!”

”Copied?” He smirked, pulling the green blade back. ”Inspired by.”

Lots of words but only two scenarios

Nanoha and Raising heart NSFW....but with FATE's POV..... yes that's right, she's there too!

Spoiler for Nanoha and Raising Heart! NSFW:

I smiled to myself as the room came closer to me. Hayate really went all out in these private areas, we could use them anytime we wanted to for whatever we wanted to. I was thinking of using one of the rooms to nap a bit since I was off duty and I didn't want to go home just to come back. Being six months pregnant really takes it on you when you have to walk.

I noticed one room was occupied with Nanoha's name under it. Happily I pushed the com button to speak to her but got a "Private" error message. Confused as to why Nanoha wanted to be alone, I tried the door, feeling it locked. Hmm... well then.

"Ahn... More..."

Wait a second, was that a moan? I pushed my ear closer to the door to listen. It was faint but I could hear heavy panting. "Raising Heart..." Nanoha's voice came again. " Bigger... Harder..." a loud gasp came, followed by a loud groan.

She wasn't... she couldn't be...

"Raising Heart! Deeper!" The sound of the mechanical voice confirmed her, sending Nanoha into a loud screaming fit. "It's..." She panted. "It's vibrating! Raising Heart! Raising Heart!"

I stepped back, face red. She was... Nanoha was using RH to...But... But what about me? I could... but... no... Lately I have been denying her, I've been too tired to even let her do minor things with me. I guess.... this is really my fault...

I placed my forehead against the door, listening to my wife pant, moan, and scream. "It's... It's coming!" Nanoha finally screamed. "Raising heart! All out! Ahh...AHHNNN More! Make it bigger! Harder! Oh god, I feel it! More! Ahhhh!!!! "

Silence came, interrupted only by faint, spent, puffs of air. Not able to stand it anymore, I entered the password to allow me forced entrance to the room and walked in, seeing Nanoha on the ground, spread eagle, with Raising Heart laying lightly in her hand.

Wait a second, she was in her barrier jacket...

"Fate-chan?" Nanoha's voice came up as she took off the Virtual Reality goggles from her face. "I thought I locked the door? I didn't want to hurt anyone in my VR training."

"V...R...training?"

"MM," Nanoha sat up and wiped the sweat from her face. "Hayate-chan made me these nifty goggles that I can use in this room. It's so real I almost forget that my blast aren't real. RH even kicks back and vibrates in my hands as if I was shooting a real charged blast! It's so nifty."

"I... I see..." I averted my embarrassed eyes. "O- Okay..."

"Is something wrong?" She asked me, worried. "You should rest, you're carrying weight for two, you know." Her hands touched my swollen stomach and placed her ear to it. "Hello Vivio," She greeted our unborn child. "What's that? Fate-mama should rest? Why yes, I agree." Her slate blue eyes looked up at me. "Vivio says you should sleep some."

I couldn't help but smile fondly. "Nanoha?" She hummed at me. " Will you nap with me?"

"... sure!" She smiled brightly.

Depends, Liingo, depends. What pairing do you want to happen? :3

Mine too, but that's because I usually went for the 'lets try to do things as different from the anime as possible' way. Fighting? Why should we! *crunch* Summoning Saber? Who needs her! *splat* Hey! Shinji is running! Let's follow him! *crack*

I've got 5 bucks that say I can run through UBW with only 1/10th of those bad ends.

Could you make them both bold and blue next time? Makes it easier for me to pick them out.

Vote counted, though.

Erh, i changed my vote to B AFTER i read that advice, because it seemed to me that the first one was going to hayates place because she's a friend, and the latter was going to her place because of food...
...which one sounds better to you?

Hmm, I'll let Keroko-chan answer that one. Do note that I love tricking people in situations like this. What may seem to be the best option may not always be so.

BEFORE RIZE OF TECNO-UNION
VIVIO

It was something like 12.00pm, the training with the new recluts have take to long time, Fate and Vivio were alredy sleep when I arrive the apartment, they look so pretty, I don't wanted to awake them so I change my clothes silently and get into the bed slowly trying to not disturb they dream, once again I stop to see how beautifull they look.

Vivio looked like an angel when she was sleeping, Fate holded her with her arms, so lovely and kind, I could pass all the night just wathing them, but suddenly, the angelical expresion on Vivio's face change to a face of fear, she starts shaking and sweating, instantly I knew she was having a nightmare.

The shakes of Vivio awake Fate "Uh... Nanoha? What..."
I just put my finger in my lips "Shhh...", and point Vivio. I sugest to leave her, with the hope that will be just a short bad dream and she will return to her angelical dream... I was wrong

The thing get worse, she stared to scream, still in her Nightmare. "No... no... Get away! Don't... don't hurt me... mama... please... make her go away... please... no... help me!... Mama, please help me!..."

I couldn't resist any longer and I awake her, she got up and started crying, Fate and I try to calm her, telling her that it was just a bad dream, she told us that a Horrible woman was trying to hurt her, we told her that that woman was not real, that she was just a nightmare. By the moment I don't give much importance to that dream, after all, all kids have nightmares with monsters, like the one that is under the bed or inside the closet, but in the upcoming days it get repited, most of the nights Vivio awake like the same way, crying and shaking, and always it was that horrible woman who chase her and try to hurt her.

One day, fate got the idea of asking Vivio to make a draw of that woman. "That way, we will know how she looks, and so if she appear, Nanoha Mama and Fate mama will kick out that horrible woman and so she will never scary Vivio again" She said, Vivio say yes andstart making the draw, Fate and I expected to see a monster from a movie or a cartoon, but when Vivio ended the draw and Fate looked at it, she got pale.

Fate put the draw on the desk, kiss Vivio in the front and told her "Don't worry... We will never let her hurt you... "I take the draw and look it, I was shocked, the image was horrible, and nothing that I have watched before...

"Don't need to be scaryed Vivio" I told her "It is just a bad dream..."

"It's just a bad dream..."

Foreshadowing is foreshadowing :3
