To those who have read the latest chapter of Naruto, what the hell! If that emo teme does what I fear he's going to do, I might just go crazy. I don't want to spoil it for anyone, but Sasuke has really crossed what little of a line he had left for me, with a really really small line.

4 Monitors were playing, showing the battles of Fate, Erio, Subaru, but the one that stuck out the most on a constant loop was Naruko as she destroyed her enemies over and over again.

But the date on the video was old.

The man watched this video with much more glee then the rest of the videos.

"Perfection…a perfect Advent of Chaos." The man muttered as he watched the violet eyed blonde again.

Both Naruko and Tea were in the helicopter that was being piloted by Master Sergeant Vice.

"Are you sure we should do this Vice-Commander?" Vice asked the blonde since they were over a volcano.

"Of course!" Naruko chirped and opened the cargo door with a slam of the button.

Teana was standing next to her, petrified, wondering what they were doing here, though for her safety she had chosen not to ask.

"Do you know why we are here today?" Naruko asked her student.

Tea shook her head, too afraid to speak.

"Simple, I taught you that new spell recently right? So we are doing a sink or swim method, or in this case…" she said as she pushed the girl into the volcano, "A burn or fly method!" she shouted to the screaming girl.

"I think your training methods are a crime against humanity." Vice commented observantly.

Naruko shrugged, "I don't really care if I get the results I want."

Vice sighed, "You really are the strangest boss I've had in my career." He muttered to himself.

"Thank you." Naruko said obviously hearing him, "Besides, it she can't do it, I'll save her." She said confidently.

"Whatever you say boss lady." The pilot said with a shrug.

"GAAAAAAHHH!" Tea screamed as she pulled out Cross Mirage and transformed.

'Stop panicking, you can do this, you can do this!' she thought as she came closer and closer to the red burning liquid as she started to feel the immense heat from it.

She focused magic to her feet and then focused on the spell she had learned.

She took a deep breath, "Wind Step." She said and a magic circle the size of a basketball appeared under her foot as if it was a step. She pushed off it and started to fall again, "AHH, Wind Step." and she repeated the spell till she made it all the way up to the chopper.

"Nice one Orange-chan, you pass this little test." Naruko said as she ruffled her hair as the younger girl fell on her bottom and let out a sigh of relief.

Naruko smiled though, Wind Step was an original spell of hers that she used when flying. Baiscally, she was able to turn on a dime at high speed and also give off high powered kicks from the spell right before landing a blow.

It was also a good spell for a Mage that couldn't fly since all they had to do was 'step' on the magic circle and it would act as though they were walking on solid ground, but it only lasted a few seconds, so they would have to repeat the spell over and over again if they wanted to continue fighting in the air, but for someone like Teana who fought for the ground forces, this would give her a major edge in a fight if she used it right.

Naruko banged the wall of the copter, "Let's head back to base." The blonde ordered.

"Roger." Vice said and started to fly home.

'What have I gotten myself into?' Tea thought to herself as she regained her breath, though her throat was a bit sore from all the screaming she did.

Naruko had Vice help Tea to the infirmary to get checkout just in case as she headed to Hayate's office.

As she walked there she saw a little Union Device sitting down typing away.

"What's up Reinforce?" Naruko said with a wave as she detoured to the device.

"Ah, Naruko-chan~!" the device said as she flew up onto her shoulder.

"So what were you doing?" the blonde asked as she patted the little device on the head, getting a giggle.

"I was just writing my personal service log." Rein said cheerfully.

"I see, I see, Rein is a very hard worker. Well I was going to find Haya-chan, wanna come with?" Naruko asked as she started walked to her previous destination before she was sidetracked.

"Of course!" Rein said with a smile.

They walked and saw Hayate walking with Shari.

"Yo Haya-chan, Sha-chan!" Naruko said cheekily as she waved to them.

"Ah Naru-chan/Naruko-san." They both said with smiles.

Naruko, along with Rein, joined them on their walk to the front of the building.

"So where are you headed Haya-chan?" Naruko asked as Rein fly onto Hayate's shoulder.

"Well me and Rein are going to the 108th Battalion building and meet up with Major Nakajima." Hayate answered as she petted Rein on the head.

"Oh oh, can I come too? I wanna see how that old man is doing without his star student." Naruko said arrogantly.

Hayate giggled, since both she and Naruko worked under Major Nakajima during their time with the 108th Battalion. Then Naruko had transferred to the Air Forces due to a bit of a falling out with a Lieutenant General who had called Hayate a 'criminal' due to the Book of Darkness incident.

Let's just say that he's only able to use one hand now.

There were of course repercussions, but the Admiralty Board was lenient on Naruko due to how skilled she was at her job and the success rate she brought to the most difficult of missions.

From that point on no one insulted one Yagami Hayate, at least not in front of Naruko.

"Sorry, it isn't a social visit, but I'll be sure to ask him for you~" Hayate said with a teasing smile.

Naruko pouted, "Fine, I'll torment Tea-chan then." She said with a sigh as they made it to the front of the build, where a car was ready for Hayate to drive.

Hayate turned her head to see the four rookies, who were covered in dirt, with Nanoha, Fate, and Vita.

"Everybody is working hard I see." The holder of the book stated with an amused smile.

"Yes Ma'am!" the rookies answered.

"Hehehe, they look like they're about to fall asleep any second." Naruko teased, since she could see some of them looked dead on their feet.

"Hayate and Rein, are you going out?" Vita asked

"Yeah, Haya-chan's going to see old man Nakajima about some stuff." Naruko said and looked amused at the wide-eyed look on Subaru's face at how she addressed her father.

"Subaru, do you have anything you want me to tell your father or sister?" Hayate asked the bluenette.

Subaru looked a bit sheepish and waved her hand, "No, that's all right." She said

Hayate nodded and hopped into the car with Rein by her side.

Naruko walked up to Hayate and gave her a kiss on the cheek, getting small gasps and blushes from the forwards, "Good luck~" the blonde said as Fate and Nanoha stood behind her.

"Have a safe trip." Nanoha said with her usual smile.

"Give Major Nakajima and Ginga my regards." Fate added with a soft smile.

"Yep." Hayate replied as she drove away, but not without Rein shouting, "Off we go!"

They three friends waved goodbye and then headed to the cafeteria for lunch.

Naruko was walking with Nanoha and Fate as she ate an apple.

"So how's my little protégé doing?" Naruko asked Nanoha as she took another bite of her apple.

Nanoha gave her a dull stare, "…You taught her Wind Step. She pulled it off during one of the exercises to help keep her footing and get an impossible shot if she was on solid ground." The redhead said in a neutral tone.

Naruko grinned, "She is so good, so diligent. I can't wait to see where she goes!" the violet eyed blonde cheered.

"But you keep putting more advance things on her plate before she's ready." Nanoha argued

Naruko shrugged, "Her basics are perfect, I made sure of that. In each practice we have, I make sure she knows what she knows Nano-chan. You're such a worrier." She said

Nanoha scuffed lightly, "And you act as if you don't have a care in the world." She retorted

Fate stood between them with her hands up, "Now now you two, no fighting. Naruko is making sure Teana is learning and Nanoha is making sure Teana knows what she's learning. You're both doing well for her." The red eyed blonde said in hopes to stop the argument.

Nanoha sighed, "Fine, but as long as Naruko-chan takes it easy on her and just has Teana reinforce her knowledge on her 'current' skill set. Save the far more advance stuff for later, please?" she asked her friend.

Naruko stared at her and pouted while crossed her arms, "Fine~"

Fate smiled as she clapped her hands, "There, now how about a hug to show each other you're sorry." She asked

Naruko and Nanoha just turned their heads to the side with puffed cheeks.

Fate just sweat dropped.

They were both so stubborn at times.

0 The next day 0

The forwards along with Hayate, Naruko, the Captains, Shamal, and Zafira, were in the helicopter being flown by Vice to the mission location.

"I cannot believe I actually have to do this." Naruko muttered as Fried the dragon nestled on her head giving off affectionate coos.

"Caro, does Fried normally do that?" Erio asked in a whisper to the pink haired girl.

Caro shook her head, "No, it's a bit weird, I mean, while Fried is affectionate, but this is entirely new of him." the dragon summoner whispered back.

"Oi gaki's, I can hear you, ya know." Naruko said to them with amusement dancing in her eyes.

Caro and Erio bowed their heads with blushes on their faces at being caught talking about a superior officer.

"Naruko, stop teasing them." Fate reprimanded playfully as she too was smiling.

Naruko just stuck her tongue out at her playfully in return, which earned a few giggles from Hayate, Nanoha, Reinforce, and Subaru.

Hayate stopped her giggles and got serious, "Now then, I'll go over the events leading up to now, as well as today's mission." She started, "The mysterious creator of the gadget drones, as well as the person collecting Relics, is currently believed to be this man." She said as a monitor popped with a man in a lab coat who had short purple hair and yellow eyes.

"That has creeper written all over him." Naruko joked to lighten the mood.

Hayate snorted lightly, leave it to Naruko to joke about a major criminal, "He's an inter-dimensional criminal with wide-area arrest warrants for his research. We'll conduct our investigation around Jail Scaglietti." She finished and Fate took over.

"Even though I'm the primary investigator in our division along with Naruko, I still want everyone to take note of him." The red eyed blonde said.

"Yes ma'am!" the forwards answered.

Rein flew up the screen and it changed to the layout of the building they were heading to, "So today, we are heading here, Hotel Augusta!" the device stated as the monitor changed to the inner layout of the building.

"We'll be guarding an antiques auction as well as securing the premises. That's today's mission, okay?" Nanoha asked

"Due to the trade of legal Lost Logia, there's a good chance that their presence may attract gadget drones mistaking them for Relics." Reinforce added, "For that reason, we were called in as security for today."

"Usually with events like these, it's a good cover for some secret deals and smuggling in the shadows." Naruko added, "So be sure to be on look out for some shady characters."

Hayate changed the picture to Signum, "Since last night, Vice-captain Signum and Vice-captain Vita, as well as a number of clerks, have been at the scene." She said as the screen then showed Vita.

Caro turned her eye and saw four small boxes next to Shamal.

"We will handle the security within the building, so the frontline troops should act in accordance with the Vice-captains' instructions, okay?" Nanoha asked

"Yes ma'am!" the forwards answered again.

Caro raised her hand and turned to Shamal, "Um Shamal-sensei? I've been wondering for a while now, what's in those boxes?" she asked softly.

"Hm?" Shamal asked and looked down and gained a look of understanding, "Ah these! They're the Captain's 'work clothes'." She said with a wink.

0 Hotel Augusta 0

The four heroines walked into the building and Hayate handed her license to the clerk who looked at it and then at them.

Hayate was in a light blue and white dress with a white see-through shawl.

Fate was wearing a dark purple dress with light purple trimming and a purple see-through shawl.

Nanoha was wearing a pink dress with a red blouse under it and a pink see-through shawl.

Naruko was wearing a black dress with yellow trimming and a yellow see-through shawl.

"Good afternoon, we're from the Sixth Mobile Division." Hayate said with a smile.

The four dispersed and casual observed the perimeter.

~The auditorium is clear~ Hayate said through the mental comm.

~North wing seems fine as well~ Fate reported

~The buffet area is clear and looking yummy~ Naruko reported as she had a chocolate covered strawberry ~Oh Haya-chan~ she said in a teasing tone.

~Later Naru-chan, with whip cream~ Hayate replied

~Do you guys have to do this on the comm.?~ Nanoha asked

~…Maybe~ The lovers answered in synch.

Fate sighed ~They'll never change~

That earned a giggle from Nanoha and a huff from Naruko and Hayate.

"Klarer Winds sensors are reacting."Shamal said, "Shari!"

"Right!" Shari said from HQ, "They're here, they're coming!" she said, "Gadget Drone: Type 1 land models sighted, 30…35!"

"Type 3 land models…2…3…4!" Lucino reported

0 In the building 0

'What the hell is going on?' ~Shari, what's happening?~ Naruko asked as she was hearing Vita yelling after a few minutes of the alert.

~Teana almost hit Subaru with her Cross Shoot~ Shari said

"What?!" Naruko said in disbelief ~Vita-chan?~

~Not now. I'm too pissed off right now!~ Vita stated as she was in the middle of finishing off the last of the drones.

~I'll talk to her when we return to base~ Naruko said in a serious tone.

~You better~ Vita retorted snappishly.

Naruko was standing next to Hayate outside the auction room as her lover was talking to Shari.

"Thanks to the front-line troops, the gadgets were all intercepted, unfortunately we couldn't chase after the summoner." Shari reported

Hayate hummed as she closed her eyes in thought, "There haven't been any injuries to our members; the mission itself was a success. I'd say a job well done." Hayate said

Lucino appeared over Shari's image, "I have sent an inquiry to nearby observation units, I think we'll at least be able to find their transportation route." She said as she signed off.

Naruko sighed, "I can just hear Nano-chan telling me that my recklessness has rubbed off on Tea-chan." She muttered as Hayate gave her a sympathetic look.

"Young ladies over there," a male voice said as the two turned to see a man with long green hair, blue eyes, and he wore a white suit with a blue dress shirt, "The auction has already started you know." He stated

Hayate looked surprised at him while Naruko grinned.

"Are you sure you don't need to get inside?" he asked

"Thank you for your kindness, but unfortunately we're here as a part of our work." Hayate retorted, "Unlike a certain casual investigator, we're pretty busy."

The man looked amused at this.

Hayate then punch him lightly in the chest playfully as the man then ruffled her hair.

"Hey! I'm here too ya know!" Naruko said with a pout and the man ruffled her hair as well getting a giggle from the blonde.

"Did you ditch work again Acous?" Naruko asked with humor, "I can give you some tips if you want~" she teased

Acous held his chest in mock pain, "How cruel! I happen to be in the middle of work, Naruko." He finished with a smile while Naruko stuck her tongue out at him.

Hayate just giggled at their antics.

0 Later that day 0

Naruko was in her Enforcer uniform and was reading from a clipboard as a techie ran up to her.

"Here are the latest results on the fragment left from the gadgets ma'am." She said

Naruko nodded, "Thank you." She said as she read them and head to where she saw Fate and Nanoha debriefing the forwards.

"Teana." Naruko said in an authority tune and tipped her head to the side as a tall tell sigh of 'Follow'.

Teana nodded and slowly walked over to Naruko and they walked into the forest to have some privacy.

~Go easy on her~ Nanoha said

~I will, but let me do this my way~ Naruko said back as she cut off her comm.

"So…you messed up huh?" Naruko asked as she turned to see a hollowed eyed Tea.

"Yes ma'am, I'm sorry." She muttered as she looked down in shame.

She clinched her fists, she had almost hit Subaru if not for Vita batting away the shot.

Naruko sighed, "Normally you're much calmer in battle…what happened?" she asked

"…I don't know." Tea muttered

"Eyes on me Lanster!" Naruko ordered loudly and Teana shot up and looked into her eyes while standing at attention, "What was on your mind when you did that maneuver?" she ordered this time.

"I was thinking of clearing the enemies as fast as possible ma'am!" Teana stated

"And? What about your teammates? They're on the field too Lanster, you've just seen what that kind of thinking had almost led too, correct?" Naruko stated

"Yes ma'am!"

"…You've been pushing yourself hard lately…even harder then I push you at times, why?" Naruko ordered

"…I…I just wish to be stronger ma'am." Teana said as she started to shift her vision to the ground, but shot them back to Naruko as to not show disrespect.

Naruko nodded, "Yes, because all young rookies want to be strong and can be a bit reckless at times. I get that, hell I've done that, but what you did today was above a bit reckless with a mix of stupid added."

Teana said nothing, but the hurt look in her eyes said it all.

Naruko sighed as she ran a hand through her hair, "Teana, how can I help you if you stay quiet? Tell me what's wrong and I'll help." She said as she walked up to Teana and looked at her at eye level.

Teana opened and closed her mouth a few times with no words coming out. She took a deep breath, "…I-I mean no disrespect, but…I fe-feel weak…" she trailed off as she said it in a murmur.

"Teana, I train you, there for, you are not weak." Naruko said as if it was a matter of fact.

"That's not what I mean!" Teana shouted, "Everyone on our Unit has special ability or is a veteran in some way! I'm practically the only normal one here!" she shouted as she threw her hands in the air and marched away from Naruko and leaned her arm against a nearby tree, "I mean, why am I even here?" she shouted as she punch the tree in frustration with the bottom of her fist.

A laugh forced her to turn and see her superior laughing. What? Was she mocking her now?!

After finished her giggles, Naruko wiped a tear from her eye and looked at Teana, "Now I know why I like you Tea-chan, you remind me so much of myself when I was younger." She said with an honest smile.

"Wha?" Teana asked

"You see them so far ahead of you; you feel as if you're standing still." Naruko said with a wistful look, "People can consider me as some kind of genius all they want, but I know the truth, compared to Haya-chan, Nano-chan, Fa-chan, I was average." She said honestly, causing Teana to look shocked, "I wanted to catch up so bad since I was always protecting Haya-chan when we were kids, but then she got powerful with her magic and I just started to learn…I felt so far behind, then with Nano-chan and Fa-chan, that feeling increased. Out of the four of us, only Fa-chan had any really training at an early age, next would be me since I started kendo young, but Haya-chan and Nano-chan were the normal ones who didn't know anything about fighting."

"So what did you do?" Teana asked softly as her teachers' story was eerily familiar.

Naruko gave her a tired smile, "I trained, I trained so hard I was bleeding every day, but that had cost me in the long run, if it wasn't for the fact that Signum-nee had beaten that mentality out of me, I could have ended up like Nano-chan."

"What happened?" Teana asked in interest.

"Nano-chan was doing exactly what you were doing and ended up nearly getting crippled from a weak enemy attack due to her body shutting down on her from all of her training. It was from sheer will power alone that you don't see her in a wheelchair as she tried so hard to just being able to walk, let alone fly. That's why she teaches now, so no one ends up like she did. That's also why I train you like I train you, so you are too tired to go too far, but aren't exhausted to the point where your body is shutting down on you since you are still a growing girl." Naruko said

"But…but…" Teana trailed off.

"You don't want to be dead weight, right?" Naruko asked with a raised eyebrow and Teana nodded, the blonde sighed, "Tea-chan, I find you so interesting because you have the most potential out of all the forwards in my opinion, you have the presences of a leader, something that Nano-chan knows and will likely inform you at a later date. But for now, we train you the way that is good for you and get you stronger one step at a time, besides, you're still a kid." She said in amusement as she ruffled Teana's hair, much to her dismay, "We clear?" she asked as she looked into her protégés eyes.

Teana gave her a small smile, "Crystal ma'am." She said with a salute.

She honestly felt a lot better after that little heart to heart.

"Good kid, now scat~" she said as she patted Teana's back, but it was hard enough to force Teana to fall to the ground, face first.

"Oops." Naruko muttered as Teana stood up and glared playfully at her and the blonde gave an awkward chuckle.

They walked back and split to their age groups.

"It was a nice speech." Fate said with her usual soft smile.

Nanoha nodded, "I think it got the message across…I even think Teana will start seeing you like Subaru sees me~" she teased with a sly smile.

Naruko pouted at them, she didn't want anyone to hear her say any of that, ~Sha-chan, I'm so pranking you for this~ she stated as it seems Shari hacked open her comm. through Balmung, who helped.

Sadly she couldn't prank her own device, so he got off scot-free.

Back at base, Shari gulped in fear at getting on Naruko's revenge list.

She would have to sleep with one eye open now.

0 With Teana 0

"Tea!" Subaru said as she ran up to her, "Did…did Naruko-san scold you?" she asked softly.

Teana gave her a small smile, "Yes, but she also made me feel better too." She said as she gave her friend a hug, "Subaru…I'm sorry. I'm really sorry I almost hit. I'm sorry I snapped at you earlier too." She said in a slight sniffle.

"Tea." Subaru said with a frown at seeing her friend sad and hugged her back, "It's okay, as long as you feel better, it's okay." She said with a smile, one that Teana returned.

0 The next day 0

"We're going to be doing something a bit different for your training today Teana." Naruko said as she was in her training outfit which consisted of a black tee-shirt, black baggy pants, and combat boots.

"Hai." Teana said with a nod in her training clothes. She wore a white tee-shirt with the sleeves rolled up, blue baggy pants, and combat boots.

Naruko walked up to her and too Cross Mirage from her, "System Limiter: test mode release." She said to the devise.

[Yes] the device answered and Naruko handed it back to Teana.

"Now, try commanding it into Mode Two." The blonde said.

Teana nodded and extended her arm, with keeping the barrel away from Naruko, "Mode Two." She said and Cross Mirage began to transform.

[Set Up: Dagger Mode] the barrel lifted vertically and a bright orange magical blade came out of the barrel and a curved band connects the end of the grip and the guard, protecting the knuckles. It had several spikes on it as well.

"Wha?" she said in surprise.

"Well you are planning to be an Enforcer, right? You're going to be doing some one-on-one battles in the future, trust me." Naruko said with a smile, "Nanoha had that made with your future carrier in mind. Besides, if you are my student, you're going to learn how to use something sharp and pointy anyway~" she teased, getting a smile from Teana.

"Now, how about we test Cross Mirage's blades against mine, right Balmung?" Naruko asked her device as she held the sword charm in her left hand.

[Ja, meine dame] Balmung said as it transformed into its large broadsword size blade.

It turned out that this was Balmung's original size, but due to her being far too short and lacking the strength to use him like this when she was younger, he had decreased his size.

Signum had to drill a variation of Naruko's katas that were for using a broadsword.

That was a fun year...not!

And now Teana looked like she shat a brick, Balmung's size tends to do that to rookies.

Naruko pulled Balmung from his sheath and attached said sheath to her back and the blade gave off a white hue as she held the blade with both hands. She grinned at her student, "Hope you're ready Tea-chan, cause here I come!" the blonde shouted as she dashed towards the orangette.

Teana gulped, she just had to draw the attention of the crazy one, didn't she?

0 A few days later 0

"So Nanoha's doing the mock battle today?" Vita asked

Fate nodded as they both, along with Naruko and the Lightning Forwards, stood some distance away from the coming battle, "I was supposed to do it, but Nanoha wanted to do it herself." She said with a sigh, "I wish she would rest though, she's always viewing the monitors, reviewing formations, and coming up with new ways to train them." She said

Naruko chuckled, "Well I think Nano-chan is going to have her hands full this time~" she said with a grin.

Vita raised an eyebrow, "What did you do?" she asked

Naruko wagged her finger at her, "That would be telling~" as she turned her head back to the battle to see Subaru rolling on one of her Wing Roads right at Nanoha.

Nanoha had a frown on her face at how Subaru was coming at her and fired a few Axel Shooters at her, but noticed passed right through her and she shattered! Nanoha then realized that it was one of Teana's Fake Silhouettes.

But where was the real Subaru?

"Ahh!" came a shout and Nanoha turned to see Teana wielding one of her guns' in her left hand while in its dagger mode and was running along one of Subaru's Wing Roads.

Nanoha once again felt disappoint at the move and thought that Naruko had taken care of this. She used a Round Shield to block the first strike and saw Teana spin on the balls of her feet and went for a low slash at her legs, but Nanoha jumped back and fired a few Axel Shooters, but Teana blocked them with a blue colored Protection spell.

Wait! Teana's magic color was orange, not blue!

"Subaru?!" Nanoha said in slight shock as Teana began to crack and there was Subaru holding Cross Mirage while smiling.

This was a new spell that Teana had made with Naruko's help; it allowed her to change her or anyone else's appearance with an illusion. It was called Silhouette Makeup.

~Tea, now!~ Subaru thought through their connection as she jumped off the Wing Road and raced away on another one from Nanoha.

Nanoha's eyes widened at the brilliant distraction and quickly looked around and turned to see a red dot on her shoulder.

In the distance was Teana holding onto her second gun of Cross Mirage with a target ring in front of the barrel.

"Phantom Blazer!" Teana yelled, [Firing] Cross Mirage added as a blast of orange energy launched from the gun as the bombardment spell head straight for Nanoha.

As the spell exploded as it collided with Nanoha, Teana reloaded her magazine and was prepared to both move and fire as the smock cleared.

"Hai! We're done! Nice job guys!" Nanoha said as the smock cleared to show her smile and her barrier jacket had a decent size burn mark on it since she was able to defend at the last second.

"That was a great move you two, I thought you were going to something reckless, but it was all a trick." Nanoha said as her smile became larger.

Subaru road up to Teana and tackled hugged her, "Nice thinking Tea!" she cheered

"Subaru! Get off!" the orangette yelled in embarrassment, but saw her blonde teacher give her a wink and she returned it with a smile and mouthed a thank you.

'You're going to go far kid and I'm going to make sure you get there.' Naruko thought as she walked away as she thought up new ways to train Teana.

Oh it was going to be so much fun!

0 The next day 0

The forwards were all on the ground, panting and covered in dirt.

Nanoha, Naruko, Fate, and Vita all stood in front of them.

"Okay, that's the morning training and the mock battle." Nanoha said to the forwards, "Good work." She commented, "And just so you know, this was the test to see if you've all cleared the second stage." Getting surprised looks from the kids as she turned to see her friends decisions, "What do you think?" she asked

Fate gave a small smile, "Pass." She simply said.

"That was fast." Subaru and Teana said at the same time in slight shock.

"Well, after all the practice they've done, it would be a serious issue if they still sucked." Vita stated with her eyes closed.

Naruko nodded her head in a sage-like manner and leaned her hand on Vita's head, getting shouts of profanity from the redhead, "I knew they could do it, but that doesn't mean it's going to get easy from here gaki's." she said with a savage smile, "It's only downhill from here." She said ominously, getting some shudders of fright from the kids.

Naruko took her hand off Vita's head and said red head kicked her in the shin, but thankfully Balmung activated a Protection spell to spare her shin the pain.

Nanoha once again took over, "I think you're all doing well." She said as she laced her hands behind her back and leaned over them with a gentle smile on her face, "Okay then, you've cleared the second stage."

And just like that the kids started to cheer as they whooped in excitement.

"We'll take off a stage of your device limiters, so go see Shari later, okay?" Fate asked with her arms crossed.

"Tomorrow we'll have you start training with the basic forms of your weapons' second mode." Vita said as she rested one hand on the back of her head.

"So be ready~" Naruko smiled

"Yes ma'am!" they said

"Tomorrow?" Caro questioned

Vita grinned as she rested both hands on the back of her head and closed her eyes, "Yep, we'll start training again tomorrow." She said

"We have to stay on standby at HQ today." Naruko said with a bit of a whine in her voice.

"Everyone has been training every day since you've joined." Fate said as she looked at them.

The forwards looked surprised.

"So you see…" Vita trailed off with a grin.

"You all have the rest of the day off." Nanoha said

Naruko gave them a look of jealousy, "Lucky gaki's." she said, but it was with a smile.

The forwards whopped once again at finally being able to relax.

"Go out to the city and have some fun!" Nanoha announced

"Okay!" they answered

0 Riot Force 6 Cafeteria 0

All of Wolkenritter, along with our four heroines were eating the cafeteria while the news filled the background.

They were happily chatting with the people at their tables when the news drew their attention.

"The capital Defense Force Representative, Lt. General Regius Gaiz, made an announcement concerning the Administration Bureau's defensive policies." The new caster said.

A large man with a brown army crew cut and matching beard in a blue ground forces uniform with a cast slug around his right arm began to speak.

He went on and on about how they need to increase the budget for weapons.

Of course he was welcomed with silence from the press conference.

He continued to rant about the budget and how they could decrease the crime rate in the first year of the policy by doing this.

"Is that geezer still rambling on about that?" Vita asked as she ate a piece of potato.

Naruko rolled her eyes, "An idiot is an idiot till they force him into retirement. Bastard." She muttered with venom, "He looks good with a messed up arm though, hehehe." She chuckled at her handy work.

"Lt. General Regius has been a hawk for a long time now." Signum stated

"Oh, Admiral Mizetto." Nanoha said in slight surprise as she saw the three top members of the Bureau.

"Mizetto-baa-chan?" Vita asked

"Oh baa-chan is there!" Naruko said with a smile.

"General Kiil and Adviser Fils is there too." Fate added

"All three of the legendary Admirals are there." Hayate stated

"But if you look at them now, they just seem like a bunch of old people." Vita commented

"You can't say that, Vita!" Fate lightly scolded, "They're an important group of people!" she said as she took the bread basket from Shamal, who handed it to her.

Nanoha took a piece from the basket, "They're the ones who took the Bureau for its beginnings to what it is today." She stated

"Still pretty dang old to me." Naruko said as she had some of her soup.

"Well, I like those old folks." Vita chimed and Naruko nodded, as she did too.

They all looked at Vita with a raised eyebrow.

"We once accepted a mission to guard them." Signum said as she drank some of her coffee, "Admiral Mizetto seems to have taken a liking Master Hayate, Vita, and Naruko." She said in amusement.

Nanoha nodded, "I see."

"That makes sense." Fate added

They all laughed and continued their meal. After finishing, they all separated and went back to work.

Hayate and Naruko headed back to the formers office and looked over some paperwork, of course Naruko openly complained about it.

"This sucks, I wanted to see Teana in cute casual clothes and embarrass her~" Naruko whined as she leaned her face on the desk she was working at with a pout.

Hayate rolled her eyes; Naruko just lived to tease others.

Things were quiet for a bit, until Naruko gained a wicked smile on her face.

"Nee~ Haya-chan~" the blonde sang as she stood up.

"Yes?" Hayate asked with a raised eyebrow.

Naruko sashayed over to her desk and sat on it with her skirt riding up her legs, showing a small bit of her black panties.

"We haven't really christened this office yet~" the blonde said in a husky voice.

Hayate narrowed her eyes in a sexy way and traced her hand up one of Naruko's legs, "Tell me more." She said in an equally husky tone.

"Oh I can do more then tell, I rather show." Naruko replied as she leaned in and kissed Hayate on the lips as their tongues caressed each others, but soon Hayate's took control and the brunette pushed Naruko onto the desk and crawled on top of her and started to fondle her breasts.

"I love these so much." Hayate whispered in Naruko's ear.

Naruko was purring from her touch, like always~

"Fufufu Naru-chan's weak point is right here~" Hayate said in delight as she nibbled on the blondes' exposed collarbone, getting Naruko to squeak in such a cute way.

Just then a view screen opened showing Nanoha, "Hayate-chan, we have trouble…" she trailed off and her cheeks turned pink as she turned her head to the side, "Um yeah, so we have some trouble…so your um going to have to stop your…'paperwork' for now." She said as the screen closed.

Hayate blinked and then raged, "ALL OF MY HATE!" she shouted, "Whosever fault this is, you are dead! So dead! I was getting it on and now I'm stuck in the mood and have to work." She muttered as she stood up and fixed her outfit.

Naruko got off the desk and it the same while pouting.

Hayate pinched Naruko's rear, getting a sexy squeak from her lover, "After this, we are going at it all night." She grumbled as she headed to the command room.

Naruko followed her and was drooling at the thought of an all-nighter.

But first they had some bad guys to crush since they crotched blocked them.

And that is a capital offense!

Done and done! I plan to finish up StrikerS as soon as possible so I can work on my other stories more without worrying about this one. In the next chapter, which I will be working on this weekend, we get to see Naruko in action, and I mean action!

The next few chapters will be roughly about this length and will mainly focus on Naruko and some others if I feel like it. Also, next chapter we will get to see the adorable Vivio~

I have plans for this one.

R&R, no flames, peace off!

0 Omake: Beams of Friendship Part 1 0

Naruko was watching Nanoha teach and snorted loudly.

This had of course caught Nanoha's attention, "Yes Naruko-chan?" the redhead asked snappishly, something that caught the kids off guard.

"Nothing~" Naruko as she sipped her ice coffee.

"No no, you clearly have something to say? Am I not pushing them crazy enough, like say make them run through a pit of alligators or something?" Nanoha questioned and scared the kids with the very thought of something like that.

"That's funny if you say that's crazy Miss I-Shot-Beams-Of-Befriendment." The blonde quipped.

Nanoha's eye twitched and pulled out Raising Heart, "Accept my friendship beam dammit!"

Naruko dropped her ice coffee, which she was only halfway through, and pulled out Balmung in Lancer mode, "I'm not a masochist!" she shouted, "Just because I'm blonde, don't think I'm into that kind of kink like Fa-chan!"

"W-what's going on?!" Subaru asked in worry.

A monitor screen opened to show Reinforce, "Naruko-chan and Nanoha-san get like this at times. Due to Naruko-chan's device being able to admit an AMF, she blocks both Starlight Breaker and Divine Buster," She started to sniffle, "So because of that…the two have never officially become friends~! Wah~!" Rein said as she started to cry into a hanky.

Everyone sweat dropped at this as they watched the two senior officers bicker.

Would they become this crazy with time?
