"Fate… are you ever going to come out of there? You've been stuck in your room for almost a year now… do you know what you've been doing to yoursef?" I heard some ruffling noises and then the door opened. I saw Fate's exhausted eyes with dark bags underneath it and messy hair. She didn't look like herself. She looked like a… homeless person so to speak. "Fate-"
"Mom…" I looked at Fate and she was smiling sadly. "Nanoha's not… coming back is she?" I shook my head and directed my gaze elsewhere. "I had…" Fate started and I looked at her again when she looked at the floor. "I had a dream… or I think it was a vision or something… that Nanoha was still alive, but… she forgot who I was, who anyone was. Mom… I'm scared…"
Fate started trembling and I pulled her into a hug. "Shh, it's ok now Fate. Everything's ok now." She shook in my hold and looked up to meet my eyes.
"No… it's not. It's not ok… Nanoha's gone, all because…" And she started crying again, for a hundredth time. "… all because of me…" Tears rapidly fell down her cheeks like a waterfall.
"It's not your fault Fate… it's no one's fault… it's no one's…" I kept repeating until Fate said something that caught me off guard.
"Mom… what are those…? Scars?! How did you get scars on your arm?" Fate pulled out of the hug and looked at me concerned. I laughed nervously and scratched my cheek.
"Ahaha, um… these? They um… I don't know how they got here… boxes fell down on me when-"
"Mom! Don't lie to me…! I did those, didn't I…? I hurt you when I was insane… and I-"
"It's ok Fate…" I pulled her into another hug. More tears were streaming down her cheeks. "It's ok. I don't mind. If it means hurting or killing myself just to save you, I would do it." She squirmed in my hold, but I held onto her tightly. "Fate, listen… listen to me… I found a nice and decent husband for you. An arrange marriage." She stopped moving. "It's time for you to move on, Fate…"
Fate
'Fate, wha- stop!! Don't kill yourself!" Mother ran from the door over to me and took the knife away from my throat, she tossed it across the room. "Killing yourself won't take you to where Nanoha is! Fate-"
"Shut up! What do you know, mother?! You haven't had anyone close to you die before!! Don't act like you know me!!" I struggled to get the knife again, but Mother was in the way. I kept pushing her away but she wouldn't move. I then tackled her and we both fell onto the ground. The knife was close enough for me to grab now so I reached over and was barely able to get it before Mother pushed me away.
Mother ran towards me and tried to get the knife away from me before I did anything else. Instead of slicing my throat right away I waved it in front of me and Mother blocked her chest by using her arms. I then realized blood dripping and Mother kneeling down on the floor before gripping the knife even harder. I closed my eyes, tears coming out.
"I'm sorry… hic… Mother…" I brought the knife up to my throat and heard a scream before hearing a loud bang and seeing black.
When I opened my eyes I found myself tied up with ropes around my wrists and ankles. I was laying on my bed sideways.
I came back to reality. I didn't know if I heard her right or not, but I stopped struggling out of her hold and stayed like that. "M… om…" She hummed and I pressed my face against her chest. "I don't know if I'm ready for a marriage or not… but I'll try… you said I needed to move one, didn't you?" 'I'll try hard and then one day build or invent a time machine, even if it takes me 50 or 100 or a million years… even if it's my next life, I want to see Nanoha one last time.'
"Yes…" Mother held onto me for awhile and then told me to go fix myself up after many months have past by.
Days, weeks, months, and years past by quickly and I was already 18. Married to Yuuno, technically an arrange marriage because of Mother. We just got married 2 weeks ago. Yuuno Scrya, the richest and smartest man in Midchilda. The leader and organizer of The Infinity Library. He got me the job of being an Enforcer when we first met. He was the one who got me promoted and go up higher than others who started first than me.
"Fate." I looked over my shoulder and saw Yuuno coming in from the door. He looked exhausted, yet drunk.
"Are you drunk again?" I turned off the TV and set the remote down and stood up, walking over to him. He shook his head.
"Nope… I'm not hic… drunk… hic… I'm just tired-"
"Yeah right! Tired my butt!! Come on, let's get you to bed." I started walking over to the bedroom with him in tow. When we reached the bed I pushed him on the bed but he wouldn't let go of me.
"Fate hic… I want to…" I pushed him again and he wouldn't budge. "I want hic… a baby hic…" I blushed and let him go while he was still holding onto me. "Again… another one so Vivio could, hic, have a sibling to play with… hic."
"N-now's not the time to h-have babies!!" I protested and pushed him hard, which indeed made him fall onto the bed. Oh yeah, I forgot. We also had a baby together, Vivio. Little Vivio. Only two and a half years old. Almost three.
"Hic… ooho~ kinky are we?" He pulled me down with him and rolled over, making me fall to the bottom and him on top. "I like it hic…" He then kissed me and it lasted forever. I pulled away from the kiss and thought of someone. Her.
My love one from long ago.
My first love.
My everything… before everything got destroyed and disappeared.
Nanoha…
I grunted when I felt a ray of light hit my face. It was morning already. That means another day of being stuck in my office.
I moved my hand over my eyes and opened one eye slowly. I peered over to the side and saw and heard my alarm clock beeping 6:00 A.M. for me to wake up, I slapped the top and the beeping stopped. I slowly got up and sat there for awhile. 'Why do I always wake up a couple of seconds before my alarm clock beeps for me to wake up?'
"Fate… -chan…"
I heard shifting next to me and spun my head so fast to the side where the sound came from. There I saw was Nanoha. My Nanoha. The Nanoha that passed away years ago.
She reached her hand out and it looked like she was searching for something, or rather someone. When her hand found my hand she scooted closer to me and hugged my waist. Her smile grew bigger by the second.
My heart stopped.
Is this another one of my dreams or visions or whatever you call it? I reached out and moved her hair behind her ear. Yup, this is one of those dream, vision thingy. I'm not moving on my accord.
"Nanoha…" I felt a smile tug at my lips. I caressed Nanoha's cheeks and she started mumbling.
"Mmm, Fate-chan… I love you…" My heart skipped a beat.
'If this is real then I don't want to wake up, ever.'
I leaned down forward and kissed Nanoha on her forehead. She started moving and closing her eyes tighter from the sunlight. When she stopped moving she opened on of her eyes and moved her hand up to block the sunlight from hitting her eyes. I smiled down at her and she looked up with a blush on her cheeks.
"Good morning pumpkin." 'Ah!! Why am I saying such an embarrassing word?!' Nanoha shifted and pushed herself up with her elbows and smiled.
"Good morning to you too Fate-chan…" Ah, there she goes again~ She's blushing. How cute. I smiled when she leaned up forward. I leaned down forward again and gave her a good morning kiss. I felt her lips curl into a cute smile, making myself smile foolishly. When we parted she looked at me like I was the only one in the whole entire world who has ever loved her the way I love her and made her this happy.
"-san…?" I saw hands waving in front of me. "Fate-san? Are you ok?"
I shook my head. "Oh sorry Shari. I was, um, thinking about things. I'm fine."
"Are you sure? You don't look fine. I think you should go back home. I'll take your place and try to figure this out." I waved my hands in the air.
"No no, I'm fine. It's ok. I want to do this after all, so it's ok." I smiled the best I could. 'Sigh, whatever that was, it seemed so… real…" I looked back down at my paperwork and closed and reopened my hand. 'Nanoha…'
"I found it!! Fate-san! I found what we were looking for for these past two almost three years!!" Shari came running in with a thin paperwork and clicked in the air making a monitor pop up. "Right here!"
I jumped back surprised. "Geez, I need to get used to these flying monitors. Sigh." I rubbed my forehead with my thumb and middle finger. "Soo, Shari… what did you find?"
"The time machine you wanted to build remember? I found it!" The monitor switched pictures and one caught my eye. I looked at it. It looked… familiar. "We can build this and maybe… maybe send you back!!" Shari exaggerated with her arms going out to the side in the air. "I don't know how long it'll take, but we'll make it, somehow someway."
My world spun around me. Was this it? Will building this take me back to where Nanoha was still alive? Where everything was perfect before that happened?
I reached out to Shari.
"Shari…" She smiled.
"You don't have to thank me, Fate-san… I haven't done anything… and I haven't done anything yet…" I smiled crookedly. "Although, I would… no, we all would… miss you Fate-san, if you were ever to go back. It was nice having you on board with us even though you were only doing this for your need-"
"I wasn't." I shook my head. "I love my job. I love this job. I wouldn't trade it for anything. I love all of my co-workers as well. You especially, I've been with you for these past two almost three years and you've helped me countless of times." Her smile grew.
"It wasn't me Fate-san, it was always you who would help us countless of times. You were the top Enforcer. You knew how to crack codes and solve many mysteries that even we top class graduates couldn't solve." She pat my shoulder and I blushed a little.
"Er… well… if you say it like that then, ahaha…" I scratched my cheeks and she laughed along with me.
