I do not own KHR or MGLN

Chapter 11

Riding an elevator was a green haired woman in a military uniform. On her forehead was four triangles with the point pointing inward. This was Lindy Harlaown the captain of the Arthra. Behind her looking at a report was a young woman with brown hair and eyes. This was Amy Limietta. Amy read the report out loud saying, "According to the report Nanoha's injuries from the scene don't seem to be serious. But her linker core has shrunk to a very unusual state."

"I see," said Lindy. "So it is connected to the recent events."

"Yes there is no doubt about that," confirmed Amy.

"What about that red fire Nanoha used," asked Lindy? "I have never seen anything like it."

"We're not sure. From what the scans we got of it was very confusing as well as the changes it caused to Nanoha core," said Amy.

"Changes to her core," Lindy said.

"Yes her core has now taken a reddish tint to it according to our scans and the flames seem to be helping it heal faster. As for the flames themselves they seem to be able to break apart magic at a quicker rate than we have ever seen before. According to our predictions a normal starlight breaker should have taken 1.582 seconds to break through the barrier, but with those flames it destroyed the barrier in .324 seconds," Amy said looking at the figures on her screen.

"So they made the starlight breaker even more dangerous but accelerating Nanoha's healing how this is possible," Lindy asked out.

"Were not sure no one has ever seen a magic like this before according to our records," Amy said.

Elsewhere in the med bay of the Arthra Nanoha being examined by one of the doctors. He was scanning her linker core. After looking at the results for a moment he said, "This is to be expected since you are so young. Your linker core is already starting to heal in fact its healing faster than we expected. However you still should not use your magic for a bit. So be careful okay."

"Yes thank you very much," Nanoha said to him. Just then the door opens and Chrono and Fate walk into the room.

"Ah officer Harlaown can I speak to you for a moment," the doctor said.

"Sure what is it," Chrono asked.

"Just walk with me," the doctor said. The pair leave the room leaving Fate and Nanoha to themselves in the room.

After a moment of awkward silence Nanoha said, "Fate chan."

"Nanoha," Fate said.

The two then smile at each other and Nanoha says, "I'm sorry our reunion had to happen this way. Are you okay?"

Fate hides her hands behind her back. "It's just a scratch," Fate says. "By the way are you okay."

"I'm fine, too," said Nanoha. "It's all thanks to you and the others Fate chan. I'm all full of spirit." She lets out a small chuckle before she sees the worried look in fates eyes. She tried to get her attention but Fate's mind seemed to be somewhere else. Seeing this Nanoha tried to get up from the bed when she stumbles it finally catches fates attention.

"Nanoha," yells Fate seeing the girl about to fall. She runs up to her and helps her stand.

"Sorry it looks like I am still a bit unsteady on my feet," Nanoha said. "Thanks for saving me Fate Chan and I am glad we were able to meet again."

Fate smiles and says, "yeah me to. I'm so happy to see you too." The two smile and enjoy the fact that they are together again.

Later that day the two walked into a lab where they see Bardiche and Raging Heart being worked on and repaired by Arf and Yuuno. "Yuuno kun! Arf san," Nanoha yells out loud as she walks towards them.

"Nanoha it's so good to see you again," said Arf.

While they were reuniting Fate walked over to Bardiche. "Bardiche I'm so sorry because I was weak you," fate started to say but was unable to finish.

"How bad was the damage," Chrono asked.

"Honestly not that good," answered Yuuno. "Their auto repair system is active and functioning, but once the structural repairs are complete they will need to be reactivated. We will also have to replace a great deal of parts. Also with raging heart."

"What about raging heart," Nanoha asked.

"Those red flames you had summoned before firing starlight breaker had covered Raging heart and started to break it down causing sever damage. We have to wait on ordering parts till we can determine what those flames where and finding something that won't get destroyed by the flames," Yuuno said.

"Raging heart," Nanoha said with tears in her eyes. "I'm so sorry I hurt you."

"Nanoha it's not your fault," Yuuno tried to say but was interrupted.

"Yes it is you said those flames I summoned hurt raging heart," said Nanoha. She then looks at raging heart and said, "I'm so sorry I promise ill protect you better in the future just please be okay." Her determination to protect raging heart causes her to unknowingly tap into her flames that started to appear on her hands. Yuuno takes the opportunity to study and scan the flames while also looking at Nanoha with concern.

"Nanoha," said fate putting a hand on her shoulder. This causes Nanoha to lose her focus and the flames to disappear. She looked around and saw the concerned look on the others faces. She wiped the tears away and smiles at the others. She looks at her clothes and could see burn marks on her sleeves. "What," she said in confusion.

"You summoned those flames again when you were talking to raging heart," said Yuuno. He then looked at the scan and said, "Fascinating they seem to naturally break apart whatever they make contact with. From what I am seeing no shield or barrier unless made out of these flames would be able to stop them. Not even barrier jackets would give much protection against them"

"So Nanoha can summon the flames of destruction," joked Arf.

"For lack of a better name let's just call them that for now," said Chrono.

Nanoha looked at the recording of the flames when she remembered what happened when she destroyed the girl's hat. "I saw flames like this before but the color was different. Before you guys arrived I had damaged the girl's hat and she got really angry. Suddenly purple flames appeared around her and when she hit one of those spheres it increased in size."

"Interesting I wonder if different colors represent different abilities," said Yuuno recording what Nanoha said. "Do you remember what you were thinking when you activated them earlier."

"All I was thinking about was that I didn't want to fail raging heart like this again," Said Nanoha looking down in sadness.

Seeing Nanoha about to get sad again Arf tried to direct the conversation away from the flames. "Speaking of strange magic wasn't their type of magic weird," she said.

"It was likely velka type," answered Yuuno.

"Velka-type," asked Arf.

"It's a form of magic that separated from mid-type magic a long time ago," said Chrono. "A magic that focuses on confrontational combat over long distance and area wide attacks. Those that were skilled in it called themselves knights."

"The woman I fought called herself a velka-type knight," said Fate.

"They were most known for an armament called the cartridge system. Which inserts into their devices. By loading cartridges of pressurized magic into their devices they temporarily gain explosive and destructive power.

Chrono then walks to Nanoha and fate and says, "Fate it is time for the interview. Nanoha could you come with us."

Nanoha turns to look at raging heart one last time to say," you did a good job Raging heart now rest up." She then turns and follows fate and Chrono out of the room.

This is where I am going to cut it off I don't want too many scene jumps and make it confusing. The conversation with graham is going to be the same as the series so I don't think I'll include it in the next chapter and may just jump to when fate moves to Uminari. The TSAB are starting to learn of flames but don't know that much about them. Note calling storm flames the flames of destruction.

Please read and review.
