I own nothing about Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha. (Really, if you can tell the difference...)
Well, here we go. Finally, Fate's appearance. If you haven't noticed by now, each chapter covers one episode, meaning that we'll have 15 chapters if you count everything.
I fell it is important to note that Nanoha hasn't exactly gotten stronger with her magic, she's just using them before she's supposed to. Unless she specifically specifies that she wants to increase the level of her magic, it will be at about the same level as it was during Season 1. For example, in episode 11, Fate would still be able to barely survive her Divine Buster, but if Nanoha said that she wanted to increase power output, then Fate probably wouldn't be able to.
Anyways, enjoy, and OOC warning still applies.
Fate stood on the rooftop of a building, scanning the city. Speaking to Alph, who was currently in her wolf-like form and lying down, resting.
"The Lost Logias, there here, aren't they? They've taken the form of blue gems. They're called Jewel Seeds. Right, I'll have them all in no time."As Fate was saying that, Alph decided to act suspicious for no reason at all by standing up and letting out a big howl.
Nanoha stood in her room, getting ready. 'Okay now, today... It's the day I met Fate, isn't it. Guess we'll see if she remembers soon enough.'
"Hey, Nanoha, are you ready!" Kyoya shouted to Nanoha.
"Sorry! Just another minute!" Scurrying to get ready, Nanoha grabbed her pack and ran over to her brother, who had just finished his conversation with Miyuki. Before the two left to head over to the bus stop, Nanoha called over Yuuno, who was a little cautious of the girl before ultimately deciding to run over to Nanoha, jumping on her shoulder.
Staring out the window of the bus, Nanoha became lost in her thoughts. 'I guess I should plan out my course of action for today. Let's see here... that cat's going to become big, I know that. I guess I'm going to have to figure out what to do next depending on what Fate does...' And as Nanoha slowly became lost in her thoughts, Yuuno was thinking about what to do himself. It was somewhat apparent that Nanoha knew much more magic than she was letting on, and it would take a heck of a lot of dreams to know all those. Trying to figure out exactly how much Nanoha knew was the problem, the boy currently in his animal form deduced. 'Still,' Yuuno decided, 'it is helpful knowing that Nanoha has a couple of backup plans for any situation. At least, that's what it seems like.' As the two slowly became more and more enveloped in their thoughts, Kyoya just thought about what exactly he was following them around for. Besides, of course, getting to see Shinobu.
The three beings then entered the residence of the Tsukimura family and were greeted by Noel, who led them inside to where Arisa, Suzuka, and Shinobu were waiting, gently sipping tea. Shinobu proceeded to lead Kyoya upstairs to her room while Noel and Farin were out making tea, leaving the three girls, Yuuno, and the cats. The cats proceeded to terrorize Ferret Yuuno, leaving Nanoha, Arisa, and Suzuka to have a nice conversation about Kyoya and Shinobu to the background music of cats speaking. Suzuka, however, went ahead and changed the topic.
"Say, Nanoha, what's bothering you? You can tell us, we're your friends you know." The girl spoke, leaving Nanoha with slightly watery eyes. Before she could answer, however, Yuuno's distress call came from his mouth. The three of them looked over to witness him being chased by a cat. Sighing, Nanoha slowly got up and began to saunter over to him, but not before they could run around Farin, making the girl dizzy and throwing the tray of tea and food she had brought into the air. Worried, Nanoha ran over to the tray and caught it, leaving Suzuka to catch Farin, while both of them were surprised at how well Nanoha was able to catch it.
Upstairs, Shinobu and Kyoya listened to Farin's heartfelt apoligies and sighed,
After that event had passed, the three then began to talk about how many cats populated the Tsukimura family household, and how some of them had found a home and would have to say goodbye soon. Nanoha wondered how exactly they managed to find those people, as she hadn't seen any ads or anything recently. She remembered that the first ad she saw talking about getting those cats would be three years from now, right before she and Vita were going to have a sparring match, which would end in her victory.
Meanwhile, the kitten from earlier found a Jewel Seed and activated it, causing Nanoha to snap to full awareness, since the girl had been pretty relaxed a couple seconds earlier. Nanoha! Shouted the ferret to the girl telepathically. I know, can you run off and give me an excuse to get away? Responded the brown-haired girl, recalling what they had done last time this had happened. As the two ran off, Fate had seen fit to fly in towards the target as well.
Upon arriving at the scene, Yuuno pointed out that they might be seen and that he should set up a barrier.
"Nanoha, we'll be seen here, I'll set up a barrier."
"No need, I'll handle it." Raising her finger into the air, a seal appeared on the ground and slowly grayed out the surrounding area. Realizing that she wouldn't want to seal off too much, Nanoha quickly put down her hand and ceased the seal immediately. Suddenly, the giant cat materialized in front of them, and Yuuno, who had not been expecting that, fell to the ground. The cat began walking, causing a slight tremor every time he took a step. Before Yuuno could advise her to do something else, Nanoha threw Raising Heart into the air.
Raising Heart, help me please."
Standby, Ready. Set up.
As Nanoha's Barrier Jacket and staff quickly came to her, she flew off next to the cat, leaving Yuuno in the dust. Snapping to realization, the ferret began to run off after the girl. When Nanoha landed next to the giant cat, Raising Heart sent a warning.
Warning, attack from Fate coming from the left.
'Alright, now it's time to figure out whether or not Fate remembers everything that happened.' Turning to her left, Nanoha saw a familiar shade of yellow energy flying towards the Jewel Seed empowered feline. Taking action, she fired one shot of her Divine Shooter and shot down the ball of energy. Wondering why her shot had so suddenly disappeared, Fate decided to try something else.
"Bardiche, use Photon Lancer."
Alright, Photon Lancer, full autofire.
Realizing that there was no way that she could fire enough bullets to stop all those, Nanoha decided to jump in the line of fire and use a Round Shield, which managed to block all of the fired attacks, but barely. Catching sight of Nanoha blocking her attack's on the cat, Fate flew over to the closest branch, eyeing the girl.
'Alright now, either she's acting very well or doesn't remember me, guess it's time to find out which one.'
"Tell me, you are a mage, correct! Why are you after the Jewel Seeds!?" Shouted Nanoha, preparing herself for the worst.
"For my mother." After hearing those three words, Nanoha came to the realization that Fate certainly didn't know her, or know the truth about herself. Clenching her fist, Nanoha rose Raising Heart, preparing to fight. "So, you'll fight then. Very well. I'm sorry, but I'll be taking this Seed." Raising Bardiche as it went into Scythe Form, Fate prepared to strike Nanoha, who was not really willing to fight Fate, but decided she had to. Flashing before Nanoha, Fate swung Bardiche, while Raising Heart reacted quickly enough to set up Flier Fin and get Nanoha into the air fast enough to evade the attack. Nanoha, prepared to fight, then remembered that Fate had taken the Jewel Seed last time, and she should this time in order to not make everything too crazy. Dodging the incoming Arc Saver, Nanoha pretended to be struck down and fired a couple of shots of Divine Shooter at Fate, while making sure they were weak enough for Fate to hit them into the cat, who was still standing. Luckily, she did so.
Landing on the ground as Fate landed back on the branch, Nanoha raised Raising Heart and pointed it at Fate. Shooting Mode. Divine Buster. Fate reverted Bardiche back to Device Mode and began to charge. Nanoha, who was expecting Divine Buster to charge longer than it did, especially when she was lowering its power just in case, was surprised when Raising Heart let out it's energy before Fate could fully charge up, barely dodging the beam, which was slower due to its weakened power. Flying over Nanoha, and next to the cat, Fate fired the Photon Lancer she was saving towards Nanoha to keep her back and began sealing.
"Lost Logia Jewel Seed Serial XIV. Seal it!"
After Bardiche hastily sealed the Jewel Seed, Fate flew off with great haste, in order to get away before Nanoha could catch up to her.
"Fate!! Wait!!" Nanoha shouted at the girl in an attempt to make her stop, but it was not use, as Fate decided to keep going, and not stop for this stranger that somehow knew her name. Nanoha, deciding not to dwell on this too much, trotted back over to Suzuka's house after powering down Raising Heart and undoing the barrier.
Upon returning home and heading to her room, Nanoha, slightly depressed at how Fate didn't remember her, went over to her bed, too tired and depressed to think about what she would do now, and decided to just figure that out when it came for now.
That's the end. Please review and drop a comment.
