The long lost Legacy of the White Devil.
Chapter 2
"Sir the lost logia has been successfully retrieved."
"Good then proceed to the next step in our plan. Tell group alpha to bring group beta as backup. I think this next step will be harder than it seems."
"Sir"
The man then saluted and left. The commander smiled while locking his fingers together and leaning on them.
"Soon very soon, we will be able to revive His Majesty. He would surely bring us prosperity and order once more."
Then he stood up and walk towards the window.
"TSAB is nothing but a group of children playing world peace. When His Majesty revives then true peace and order shall appear. His Majesty will surely unite the multitude of dimensions once more."
He then walk back to his sit and opened a transparent screen. After a while of scheming through some heavily protected files he stopped and opened a folder named 'RoFDX2'.
He then schemed the reports and pictures included in the said folder, stopping for a minute to enlarge a certain picture. His eyes softened as he stared transfixed on the said picture.
In the picture a woman with long purplish hair sat on a wheelchair, on her arms was a baby and happiness could be seen on the woman's face.
"Silvia, my darling Silvia soon the dimensions will unite under one rule and no one would have to experience what had happened to you and our child ever again. I'm sorry I was not able to come save you. It was all those TSAB dogs fault. But don't worry soon everything will change and I'm sure you'll be happy with this change. Oh how I miss you and our child."
A solitary tear fell from the commander's eye without his notice. Upon noticing though he wiped it off with the back of his hands. He stared at the picture for a few seconds more before closing it and clicking another folder with the name 'HMR999X'.
There were a lot of documents about certain people and their background. Some of the said documents have been marked with a big 'X' while others remained clear. He scrolled down till he found the file he was searching for.
He clicked the picture attached to the report and enlarged it. It was a picture of a young girl. The girl has long flowing blonde hair that almost reach her mid-back and a smile that could brighten up a dark room.
But the most eye catching trait of this child isn't her smile but her eyes. They were mismatched, green on the left side and red on the right side.
"Vivio Takamichi, such a young child. My daughter would have been her age now, if only she had survived. Neither the less it wouldn't matter now. I just hope that she will be the one because I no longer wish to further stain my hands with the blood of the innocent children even if it's necessary to attain our goal. The list of the guilt I would have had would no longer need to grow if she truly is the one. Her sacrifice would not be in vain if she is the one." Then he motioned for the screen to disappear.
St. Hilde Academy
"Bye bye Vivi-chan, See you tomorrow…"
"Bye bye Corona-chan, Rio-chan, Ein-chan. See you tomorrow."
The three left leaving the blonde child alone. The child then sat at a nearby bench waiting for her guardian to pick her up.
As the blonde girl sat alone on the bench a certain vionette knight pass by. Upon seeing the child the knight couldn't leave her alone so she opted to approach the child.
"Vivio-san has Zafira-san not come yet?"
"Un…"
"He has never been late before. I wonder if something happened." The knight stated worriedly.
The blonde girl just shrugged.
The two silently waited for the blue guardian wolf. Then just when the vionette was about to say something a black van suddenly stop at the gate and armed man appeared.
Caught off guard by the sudden appearance the blonde girl and vionette were easily captured in bind spells. It didn't last long though since the vionette snap out of her trance and summoned her device getting free from her binds.
She then stood in a fighting stance in front of Vivio.
"What is the meaning of this?" She boldly asked.
A man then stood up front from the other men.
"We came to take the child." The man stated boldly then signaled for the others to attack.
"Schach-san, be careful." The blonde child shouted while struggling to get free from her bind.
Schach nodded and started fending off the approaching men. She was doing alright and many off the men were fended off when suddenly the man before who ordered the attack signaled for the others to retreat. Thinking that the fight was over Schach rushed to remove Vivio's bind but suddenly multiple ranged attack appeared and caught Schach by surprise. After being hit by the ranged attack Schach fell to her knees. She tried to remain conscious but the effect of the attack was taking its toll on her.
One of the men then ran toward the still struggling Vivio. He grab hold of Vivio upon reaching her and pulled her toward the black van. When the man passed the still kneeling Schach, Schach grab hold of the man's hand that had Vivio's arm in a tight hold but Schach was so weakened that the man just shrug her hands off.
After depositing Vivio into the black van the men disperse and left Schach all alone. Unknown as to how long she had been in that position Schach tried to stand up but failed but neither the less she still kept on trying. Then just as she was about to faint from excursion she saw Zafira in his wolf form approaching and she stretch her hands towards the blue wolf. But before she could say anything she fell forward.
Zafira seeing the vionette struggling to stand up dashed to help but he only manage to come right when Schach was about to fall forward thus he broke her fall. He then examined the vionette and he saw that she was beaten well. Just before Schach succumb to unconsciousness she had manage to tell Zafira that Vivio was taken.
Takamichi Household
A brunette instructor announced her arrival and took off her shoes to replace them with a fluffy sandal. She had had a hard day training with the forward and the investigation of the stolen lost logia but somehow she found that coming home was like a boost of energizer to her.
Sensing that no one is home yet she decided to change and prepare dinner. It was one of her likely obsession recently when she comes home to an empty house to change and prepare dinner for her two most important people in her life.
"I wonder what I would make for them today." Nanoha stated as she change from her instructor's uniform to a simple dress.
She then went to the kitchen in search of the ingredient she would use to make dinner. A few minute of scavenging the kitchen she realize that she only had enough ingredients to make spaghetti and some salad so she decided on that with the thought that she need to go shopping the next day.
"Yosh, Spaghetti and salad it is." Nanoha nodded as she started to prepare the food.
She was so engrossed in her task that she didn't realize that she had started humming a certain tone.
She snapped out of her happy trance when she realized that she forgot to check the dessert she made the other night. So she went to the refrigerator to check on it.
"I know I put it up here somewhere…" Nanoha said while she move some frozen meat away.
"Master Incoming transmition" Raging Heart suddenly chimed making Nanoha look up from the ref.
"It is from Schwetzerkruez my master."
"Hayate-chan? I wonder what she wants. Raging Heart Accept Transmition." Nanoha stated while she got a clean rug to wipe her hands.
A transparent screen appeared.
"Hayate-chan what's wrong?"
"Captain Takamichi Nanoha, we have new information with regards to our current case."
Hearing the commanding tone her friend used she quickly stood in alert.
"Ma'am"
"Firstly is Enforcer Harlaown with you?"
Nanoha then felt strangely uncomfortable because of her friend's behavior. She was about to answer when she heard the door open. Fate monotonously announced her arrival and Nanoha called her to the leaving room since she had found talking with her commander in alert in the kitchen inappropriate.
Fate seeing that Nanoha was talking to the commander suddenly went stiff. Nanoha's unease grew when she saw her blonde friend's reaction.
"Commander Yagami"
Fate then went and sat near Nanoha on the couch. Then something else made Nanoha look at her blonde friend.
"Fate-chan where's Vivio?"
Fate couldn't help but stiffened at the mention of Vivio's name which caused Nanoha to feel tense. Just as Nanoha was about to ask once more Hayate spoke.
"Captain Takamichi and Enforcer Harlaown…" Nanoha looked at the screen.
"Regarding the new information…" Nanoha's heart was started to beat faster as her unease grew.
"The suspects have been spotted this afternoon at St. Hilde Academy. They were apprehended by Knight Schach but they manage to overpower her and escape. They have also taken a child with them…" Hayate couldn't keep the swirling emotions in her eyes as she mentioned the last part.
The last phrase keeps on repeating inside Nanoha's head as she felt her heart suddenly stop. Slowly she looked at her blonde friend and the expression she had told Nanoha of the truth. Looking once more at the transparent screen Nanoha waited for the inevitable.
"…the child's name is Vivio Takamichi…" Hayate's commanding voice faltered while saying Vivio's name.
Nanoha felt everything stop and crumble. She couldn't breathe like something was clutching at her chest more specifically her heart.
"No…no…NO…it…it…can't be." Nanoha then stated while shaking her head. Tears had also started to form on the corner of her eyes.
"Nanoha-chan calm down…"
In response to her friend's words Nanoha momentarily stop moving but her tears had started to fall.
Fate and Hayate looked at Nanoha a lot more in concern as she just sat motionless. They then saw the slowly fading spark on Nanoha's eyes as her tears stream down. Worried Fate slowly grab hold of Nanoha's shoulders and shoke her.
"Nanoha get yourself together. Will find her? So calm down"
Nanoha just sat motionless. Fate then gently slaps her on the face. Nanoha remained unreceptive. Then Nanoha suddenly stood up and shouted.
Nanoha's sudden breakdown caught Hayate and Fate by surprise but only for a short moment since Fate snapped out of it and stood up to calm down the hysterical Nanoha who started blaming herself for everything while tears fell abundantly from her eyes.
Then she just stops moving once more then she fainted.
"NANOHA!" Hayate and Fate both shouted.
"Hayate-chan you call Shamal while I take Nanoha to the nearest hospital. Tell her I will meet her there ok." Fate stated as she gently lift the unconscious Nanoha.
"Okay I'll tell her. Make sure that Nanoha-chan get to the hospital quickly and safe ok." Hayate stated while she summons another transparent screen.
Fate nod and took Nanoha to her car. She then drove her to the nearest hospital.
Midgard Hospital
"Please be alright Nanoha." Fate silently whispered as she took Nanoha inside the Hospital.
She then put her at a nearby stretcher while the nurses dashed to help her. They then took Nanoha to the Emergency room.
A few seconds later Shamal came and she too entered the Emergency room. Then a long moment of wait later Shamal came out.
"Shamal, How's Nanoha?" Fate worriedly asked.
Shamal sighed and the door to the Emergency room opened and out came a stretcher with Nanoha on it. Nanoha was then taken away to her temporary room.
"Physically she's fine but she had an emotional breakdown, probably due to learning about Vivio-chan's kidnapping. I'm not sure as to what effect the breakdown might have on her yet. We still need to see when she wakes up." Shamal then looked at Fate apologetically.
"All I could say for now is…Nanoha-chan really need someone to be beside her."
Fate nod and ask if she could stay with Nanoha tonight. Shamal nodded but told her that she's only allowed to stay until visitor's hour is over.
Reaching Nanoha's temporary hospital room, Fate found that Nanoha was in a private room thanks to Shamal's instruction plus really now, you would have thought that an Ace would be put on a regular hospital room now Oh my that just wrong.
She walked toward her sleeping friend. She looked peaceful like nothing had happened and she hadn't had a breakdown. But knowing Nanoha, Fate saw how it had affected her friend. The slight knot on her perfectly shaped brows, the small slip of her lips and most of all, the tears that are still flowing freely from her closed eyes, Yup Fate saw them all.
She then gently lifted Nanoha's left hand in between both of her hands like when one is about to pray.
"Nanoha, please be alright."
Nanoha remained motionless and if it were not for her breathing she could have passed for a dead lady.
At a closed Factory not so far away from the city a black van stopped.
"Okay it seems that were all cleared to go now. Take the child to the underground Facility while I contact Cmdr. Serberus. Also tell the 'docs' to start the process as soon as the child is delivered."
A red head soldier saluted and he pulled the child out of the van. The child started to struggle and the red head got kicked on the face. Hurt he momentarily loosened his hold on the child.
Vivio used that moment to sprint away but she wasn't able to run far when a new bind appears on her ankles. Vivio lost balanced and she fell faced first on the ground.
"John are you stupid or what? Why'd you let the child run huh? Thank god I was near or Capt. Gail will have our heads on a silver platter."
"Sorry Cloud but the brat kicked me on the face. It hurts you know. I swear if we don't need that brat I'd give her a proper lesson on how to treat your elderly the hard way." John then smirked evilly at the now crying Vivio.
"Are you really that stupid? First of all if we didn't need that child then we won't even meet her. Secondly how'd you expect the child to treat us properly when we kidnapped her? Idiot. Anyway let's just take her to the underground facility already so we can do something else." Cloud then gently lifted the crying blonde.
"Now that you mention it, I think your right." John stated while he follow Cloud into the closed factory.
Cloud just rolled his eyes and mumble 'idiot'.
"..."
"…"
"But still she shouldn't have kicked me especially not on the face." John stated as he gently massage his chin.
Cloud decided to ignore his companion and instead walked more briskly.
When the two reach the underground facility, the 'docs' greeted them. They then injected Vivio with some sort of drug. Vivio felt her strength leave her and soon she started feeling dizzy.
"She's all yours 'docs'. Take good care of her." John wickedly stated.
"We'll take good care of her." One of the 'docs' sarcastically answered.
Vivio was then lead to another room. Vivio was feeling dread and somehow nostalgic coupled with fear and frustration all the while her body started to feel numb. The room would have looked like the throne room from the cradle if it weren't for the solitary crystalline pillar at the center of the room. Vivio was then lead to a chair where she was sitted and strapped. Vivio then knew that soon she would be subjected to unimaginable pain once more.
With all her strength left Vivio shouted.
"No!…No!…NO!... NANOHA-MAMA SAVE ME!" Then she felt an enormous amount of magical energy surge throughout her body causing unimaginable pain.
At Midgard Hospital
The door opened and a panting short haired brunette entered. Taking a few deep breathes she steadied her breathing before fully entering the room. She then looked on at her sleeping friends face.
"Fate-chan, how's Nanoha-chan doing? Did she wake up already?" Hayate stated while putting a comforting hand on Fate's shoulder.
"No she hadn't wakened up since I brought her here." Fate stated monotonously. Hayate however heard the anxiety and fear with a hint of anger in Fate's tone regardless of how much Fate tried to sound unaffected.
"Don't worry Fate-chan, Nanoha-chan will be alright. Come on, after all were talking about the great Ace of Aces, the White Devil Nanoha Takamichi here. I'm sure that she'll be fine. I know she'll be her normal smiling self soon enough so don't be so anxious and besides Nanoha-chan wouldn't want us to worry. You know how stubborn she is."
"Yeah…"
The two then looked at the sleeping brunette.
Nanoha groined.
"What happened? Where am I?"
Nanoha then looked around but all she could see is darkness. She started to panic but then remembering her military training she realized that now isn't the time to panic and that it would only be a waste of time.
She then composed herself and thought of what she was doing and how she had gotten herself there. A few minutes later she still could not remember anything that had happened to her and why she was there. She however felt that something was terribly wrong and that it felt like a piece of her heart was a miss. She also felt strangely anxious and frightened but as to what? She still could not remember.
Then she heard a voice. It was being muffled but she knew all too well to whom the voice belonged too and she felt her insides churn with worry and fright.
She followed the sound and strangely it leads her to a wooden door. Inside she heard the voice calling out to her. Then as she tried to open the door the call became shouts of pain and exhaustion. It made her blood run cold with worry. Soon she was trying to force her way inside.
Then with all her might she manage to pry the door open. What she saw made her remember a certain cradle and an intense sense of worry and desperation mix with anger and pain.
Vivio seemed to had seen her because Vivio smiled weakly and in a weakened voice she said.
"Na-Na-Nano-Nanoha-mama, save me."
Nanoha's tears streamed down her face as she looked at Vivio's condition and she dashed towards Vivio but somehow no matter how fast she run forward she could not reach Vivio instead Vivio seems to be moving away from her reach. Then everything vanished. Nanoha was once more in that same darkness were she had first awakened.
"Vivio!…Vivio!…VIVIO!..." Nanoha cried.
"Wh-Why…Why must she suffer again? Why am I so powerless to protect her? WHY!" Nanoha shouted.
Then she heard another voice. It wasn't familiar to her but somehow it seems to give her comfort.
"Do you wish to protect your loved ones?"
"Do you wish for power?"
"Do you wish for strength?"
"Will you do everything to earn the power to protect them?"
"Do you have the strength of heart and mind to grab hold of the power to protect them at all cause?"
"If thy answered yes. Then I shall help thee. I will beseech thy with the power to protect thy love ones."
"If not, then thy would forever grieve thee weakness thy had and watch thy love ones tragedy."
Nanoha raised her head. Tears streaming abundantly down her face and answered.
"Yes"
Nanoha then awoken once more but this time it wasn't inside the darkness but in a room, in a hospital room. But this time she was different and that difference was shown when the moon's ray hits Nanoha's face.
One of Nanoha's eyes had changed its color. The once vibrant sapphire blue eye was now colored cloudy amethyst.

Yap cliffhanger. Aren't I evil? nyahaha Hey I just want to know if some of you are still reading this fic of mine. If so then send me some reviews on what you think of it.
Should I continue or should I stop here?
As for my other fics, you don't need to worry I would be updating them soon but not too soon because I lack inspiration to write plus I might be on a slump. I'm kind of depressed because I was clumsy with one of my fics recently and I almost got sued but oh will…
Darn I almost forgot to put a disclaimer again. Anyway I don't own MGLN characters but I sure would love too…
Please leave a review.
