- "Secret Ambition" Nana Mizuki-
Sonic Adventure: Lyrical Step
Chapter 19
Enter the Numbers! Battle with Silver! Take him down!
-In the Sewers-
– Boss Battle: Silver and Agito-
-Insert: "Blinded by Light" (Battle Theme) Final Fantasy XIII-
Agito attacked first with a volley of purple fire bolts, which exploded on impact with the ground. The forwards quickly leaped out of the way to dodge. Ginga and Subaru tried to close in with a powerful combination but found themselves grasped and thrown back by Silver's ESP. Silver also sent green blades created by his ESP energy at them. Thanks to some quick thinking the group was able to dodge once more.
"Tia, what should we do?" Subaru whispered
"Our main mission is securing that case, Sonic-san any ideas?" Teana whispered to Sonic
"Subaru and Ginga were shut down by that telekinesis thingy he was doing, I noticed that he takes a lot of concentration to pull off. That little pixie is probably giving him the time to concentrate.. I suggest when he tries another attack, Shadow can use Chaos Control and then we can hit him hard." Sonic suggested to Shadow quietly.
"Good plan.. though if I try Chaos Control, I won't be able to use it with that "pixie" on my tail.." the ebony hedgehog argued.
"I can distract her and draw her fire. If we can hold off long enough, Vita and Rein can come in and finish the job.. though with what we planned, we'll have the lovely couple all tied up well before they get here." Sonic said cockily
'Not a bad plan blue boy. We're en route and should be arriving shortly.. don't be hogging all the action now.' Vita chimed in mentally to the forwards and hedgehogs.
'No promises on that Vita.' Sonic replied. Then turned to the forwards "Okay! Let's GO!"
"Whatever you got planned, it's not gonna work" Agito said cockily.
Sonic's response was some of his own attitude "Nya nya nya!" he taunted her with some funny faces and drew her fire.. only for Agito's shot to go through some afterimage as he sped out at the last second, and appearing once more and taunting with raspberries. Agito tried once more but only got the same result. Sonic kept her busy by taunting and dodging her fire shots. His antics drew Silver's attention as well. The silver hedgehog focused his ESP on some debris, the rocks began to float but just before he could fling them at the cocky hedgehog, he was stopped.
"Chaos Control!" Shadow commanded and froze Silver and Agito in time with his ability "Now! Hit him!"
Subaru and Ginga took Shadow's opening and delivered a team up combination of alternating punches and kicks, their combo ended when Subaru sent the silver hedgehog Caro's way, and while she was still a bit dazed from her close encounter with a wall earlier, she managed to recover enough to pull a roundhouse kick and let Erio nail him with a combo with Strada. Teana took her opportunity to shoot both Silver and the distracted Agito with her Crossfire Shoot, doing so also gave Sonic a shot. The blue hedgehog finished off Silver and Agito with his traditional spin-dash that he used with his speed to home in and attack them several times, ending his combo off with an axe-kick that sent both of them to the ground unconscious.
-Insert: "Victory Fanfare" Final Fantasy VI-
Seconds later Vita busted through the ceiling of the sewer, followed by Rein. Expecting a fight, Vita shifted Eisen to it's Gigant form, but what she found surprised herself and Rein. Silver and Agito were unconscious and the forwards except Shadow were cheering. Subaru and Ginga made their victory dance of a high-five, wink and thumbs up. Caro and Freid cheered together while Erio twirled Strada and set it into the ground. Teana twirled her twin guns similar to that of a gunslinger before making a victory pose. Shadow just simply turned his head with his arms folded. And lastly Sonic breakdanced and ended his dance with a thumbs up winking grin pose.
"Sorry to keep you waiting..." Vita said to the forwards then turned to Sonic with a comical glare "Oy! I said save some for me!"
"Sorry. Couldn't help that, that silver furred boy was pretty weak.. You would barely get a work out from him." Sonic snarked in return
"It's true, we were honestly expecting him to put up more of a struggle with that psychic ability thing" Subaru commented
Rein casted binds on both Silver and Agito, they weren't going anywhere now "I'm glad you're all safe though"
Subaru noticed the huge hole in the ceiling that Vita came through and commented "Vice Captain Vita, you're really strong.. But is it okay for Bureau members to damage property like that?"
"Well the area has been long abandoned anyway" Teana noted
"And that psychic hedgehog also destroyed some himself to use for his ability" Caro added.
"Let's get out of here. Subaru, Ginga" Vita ordered
"Hai!" Came the unanimous response, and the siblings pounded their fists into the ground, at the same time saying "Wing Road!" From Subaru's fist came a blue path that traveled through the hole Vita made. Ginga also made her own which was a purple version of Subaru's.
Vita hoisted the still unconscious and bound Silver and Agito "Subaru, Ginga, take the lead, I'll bring up the rear with Sonic and Shadow."
Before Teana left she gave Caro her hat which was misplaced during the fight with Silver "Caro, your hat"
"Arigatou-gosaimasu (Thank you very much)" Caro said as she held her hat
"Hey, can you seal the Relic for me? I have an idea"
"Yes, I can" Caro answered. With that the forwards, Sonic, Shadow and Vita left the sewers.
-With Hayate-
-Insert: "The man with the machine gun" Final Fantasy VIII-
Hayate continued to destroy waves of aerial drones with her long range bombardment spell. After one more wave she took a breathe and asked over the communications "How many left?"
Shari answered "You've knocked it down to 9, no 8 formations"
Hayate then heard the others report as well, first starting with Alto "We've started breaking down the illusion's patterns"
then Lucino followed up "We've gotten contact from the observation team. Composite signal discrimination is proceeding as scheduled.
Shari finished "We're almost there!"
Hayate was happy to hear the good news "Alright! You guys sure are Riot Force 6's operators." She twirled her staff and focused ahead with a grin "Okay, let's keep going. Keep targeting for me!"
-On the surface with The forwards, Sonic, Shadow and Vita-
-Insert: "Martial Law" Final Fantasy VIII-
Without delay the group made it to the surface with the secured Relic case and captured Silver and Agito. The duo were starting to wake up.
Agito was the first to notice the binds on her "Damn it! Oy! Silver, wake up!"
Silver was jolted up by Agito "Huh? What? How?" he said as he noticed the binds on him as well.
"Well looks like the romantic couple has woken up" Sonic teased.
"Oy! We are not like that! I was only concerned for him." Agito said
"Romantic?" Silver seemed confused.
"Don't ask boy, you're too naïve to understand that yet." Agito replied.
Vita approached the duo "I don't like having to do this because you're still a kid, but you're under arrest for using dangerous magic and abilities inside the city limits, as well as obstructing the duties of an officer."
Sonic joked "I'd be embarrassed right now. He was just roundhouse kicked in the tail by a girl. Nice one Caro" he gave a thumbs up to her.
"Arigatou Sonic-san" Caro smiled.
Sonic stood beside Vita and taunted the duo "Well, shorty (Agito) and.. let's see.. aha! Squishy!" He pointed to Silver "That shall be your nickname, because you're really weak when that green glow isn't on you."
"That bad?" Vita turned to the blue hedgehog
"No kidding. Yeah his psychic abilities were a bit of a hassle, but disable those and it's open season." the hedgehog snickered then turned to Silver "I mean come on, would it hurt you to build up some stamina or toughness? Zero points for trying to be a boss. Train a bit more please, so that way it won't be so easy.. and also, your apparel, green, black and yellow? Really? It's like you were dressed by Richard Simmons.." He turned to Vita "Fashion police this sucker!" he turned his attention to Agito "And don't get me started on you."
"That idiot actually lives here?" Vita asked with a cringe
"Yeah right, Mid-Childa would be doomed to heck in a handbasket if he lived here.." Sonic equally cringed
"Ano, Sonic-san, does Riot Force 6 have fashion police?" Caro asked
"Yes, her name's Hayate." Sonic joked.
Vita couldn't help but laugh at Sonic's joke.
All Silver could do was blink as he listened, he really didn't seem to understand what the blue hedgehog was saying, he didn't seem to mind his choice of clothing.
Agito glared at Sonic "Oy! Quit talking about Silver like that, besides it's not like you're one to talk, blue hedgehog with red white and blue shoes."
Sonic replied quickly "Red, white and blue here just kicked your butts. So your argument is invalid"
Vita recovered from her laughing fit then turned to Sonic "Oy.. Book 'em Danno."
Sonic shrugged "Alright. Nice impression, Jack Lord was better, but points for originality."
-Elsewhere-
2 girls stood on a rooftop, one was Quattro, the brunette with glasses who caused the illusions, the other was another brunette wearing a gray cape like cloak that flowed in the wind and her hair was tied in a long tail with a white bow at the beginning of it. Her and Quattro both wore a blue suit-like outfit that fits to their form. She also was holding something large and long that was wrapped up in cloth.
"Dieci-chan, can you see it?" Quattro asked
The girl, now known as Dieci answered "Yeah, there's nothing in the way, the air is clear. I can see it clearly." Dieci looked into the distance, her irises gaining a silver like scope, and through this scope she could see the helicopter housing Vice, Shamal, Emerl and the young girl. "But, is it okay to fire, Quattro? The case would probably be fine but it'll destroy the material (girl), and the robot."
Quattro giggled "According to the Doctor and Uno, if that Material is the right one... if it really is the Vessel of the Saints, then the cannon fire won't kill it, so it's fine.. and the robot was just some piece of junk that the Doctor threw away when it wouldn't do a thing he ordered it to. So he doesn't care if it's destroyed."
Dieci removed her cloak and unwrapped the object she was carrying, revealing it to be a large cannon.
Jail's assistant, identified as Uno, contacted Quattro "Quattro, Silver and Agito were captured."
"Oh right, that mini-knight and blue cutie caught them, didn't they.." Quattro acknowledged
"Sei is keeping an eye on them right now..." Uno said
"Shall I give them a hand?" Quattro asked
"Please do" Uno requested and ended the call
"Okay." Quattro acknowledged then reached out in a mental contact 'Sei-chan?'
-Under the bridge where Sonic and the others were-
A purple gloved hand pointed a finger out of the ground as if coming out of water 'hai-oh Qua-nee?'
'I'll give you orders. Do as I say, okay?' Quattro asked
'ryoukai (roger or got it in japanese.. it's pronounced yokai)'
-With Silver-
Silver seemed to tune out whatever the others present were saying when he heard Quattro's voice in his head 'Hi, Silver-sama!'
'Quattro' Silver recognized her
'Seems like you're in a pinch. If you'd like I'll give you a hand.'
'onegai Quattro..' he requested
On Quattro's end she smirked 'Then tell what I'm about to say to that blue rodent and red knight'
-With Nanoha and Fate-
The duo soared through the air to meet up with the helicopter. They caught sight of the helicopter
"I can see it." Nanoha said
"I'm glad it's safe" Fate was relieved.
Nanoha seemed happy as well, but something else caught her attention
-Long Arch: Communications room-
"I've spotted a massive energy signal in the city!" Alto reported
"It's huge!" Shari added
"No way, it can't be.." Lucino was shocked.
-With Hayate-
The brunette suddenly looked back to the city when she caught the reports of the energy signal and gasped in shock.
-With Quattro and Dieci-
Dieci was down on one knee holding the large cannon and an orange spiraling sigil where she sat. Her cannon began to charge up for a massive shot.
-Long Arch-
"I'm seeing a cannon charge... Physical destruction type... estimated at S rank!" Shari reported
-Back with Quattro and Dieci-
Dieci continued to charge her cannon "Influent Skill: Heavy Barrel, Activate."
Quattro spoke what Silver should say "You can capture me if you want..."
-With the Forwards, Sonic, Vita and Shadow-
The forward group was surprised to hear the reports. But what caught Sonic and Vita's attention more was what Silver was saying.
"You can capture me if you want..." Silver started, then finished at the same time when Quattro spoke "But can you really leave that helicopter of yours alone?"
Everyone gasped in shock.
-Back to Quattro and Dieci-
"Twelve seconds til cannon fire.." Dieci said then counted down "Eleven.. Ten.."
"Oh, Silver-sama can I add one more thing? You might not be able"
-Forwards again-
Silver finished what Quattro said "To protect them again..."
His words hit Vita hard, and she was speechless. Her expression was noticed by Sonic.
-Quattro and Dieci-
"Fire." Dieci unleashed the cannon's shot. Firing a massive red and orange beam that targeted the helicopter.
-With Hayate-
The brunette gasped once more when the cannon fired.
-Nanoha and Fate-
The duo saw the blast being fired and the beam rapidly approaching the helicopter.
-With the helicopter-
Vice and Shamal were shocked and could do nothing as the beam made contact. An explosion occurred from the impact.
-Long Arch: Communications room-
All that could be seen was static, no one knew what happened
"The cannon struck the helicopter directly" Alto said solemnly
"That's impossible... What's the situation?" Shari asked
"There's too much jamming! I can't get any data" Lucino reported
-With the Forwards, Sonic, Shadow, Vita-
The group was shocked and unsure what happened since no data was available to be said, they wree in the dark and had to assume the worse.
"No way..." Erio said
"Sergeant Vice and Shamal-sensei" Teana added..
Sonic turned to Shadow "Shadow?"
The ebony hedgehog nodded with a glare "Got it.. Chaos Control!" and warped out after tracing that blast.
Vita lost her temper at that point, she grabbed Silver by the shoulders "Damn you!"
"Vice-Commander, calm down!" Subaru tried to calm her down.
"Urusai!" she barked at Subaru then turned to Silver "You've got people working with you right? Where are they? Tell me!"
The familiar finger moved through the ground as if through water and then retracted into the ground. Ginga noticed it was near Erio, who was holding the Relic case
"Erio-kun, something's under you!" Ginga alerted
Erio was shocked. A teenage girl with light-blue hair and green eyes, wearing the same suit as Quattro and Dieci, came out from the ground and swiped the case from him, also cutting his hand enough to draw blood in the process.
"I'll be taking that!" the girl said
Sonic had other plans though "Not on my watch!" he exclaimed as he tried to nail her with his homing attack.
The girl known as Sein avoided his attack "Oopsie, sorry cutie, this one's mine." she dove back into the ground as if it was water. Teana fired shots at her, but it hit the road with no effect.
"Kuso. (Damn it)" Vita cursed and turned her attention away from Silver, the others doing the same.
Silver heard Sein's voice in his head 'Silver-sama, this is No.6 of the Numbers, Sein. I'll save you with my IS (Influent Skill) Deep Diver, please keep your ESP off right now because it will interfere with my ability. Okay?'
Silver acknowledged and closed his eyes, remaining still. Sein came up from the ground wrapped her arms tightly around the hedgehog then allowed them both to sink into the ground. Vita noticed and leaped at them to stop, but ended up face-planting.
When they were underneath and safe Silver asked "Where's Agito?"
"Oh, she's fine she managed to escape." Sein answered. "Good work though, we got the Relic, so don't worry."
-Back above surface-
"We've lost them both" Rein said.
Vita knelt on the ground and asked over the communications "Long Arch, is the helicopter okay?"
-With Quattro and Dieci-
"Good plan eh?" Quattro asked
"Shut up, I'm confirming my kill" Dieci said coldly as she used her scope like eyes to scan the area where her shot hit... The smoke of the explosion cleared out.. revealing... the helicopter still intact! "Eh? It's still flying?"
"Oh?" Quattro queried.
-Back with the helicopter-
-Insert: "Sonic's Solution" Sonic X-
Yessir indeed that helicopter was still airborne and flying. And right in front of it was Nanoha, wearing a different barrier jacket. The waist-cape and short skirt was replaced by a longer flowing skirt. This was her Exceed mode jacket.
"Stars-2 and Long Arch. This is Stars-1, I was just close enough to save the helicopter." Nanoha reported
-With Hayate-
The brunette sighed in relief while still airborne "That was close.. too close."
-Long Arch: Communications Room-
"Limiter Released! Nanoha and Raising Heart's Exceed mode!" Shari observed
-With Dieci and Quattro-
"Ara ara (oh my)." Quattro was surprised.
"Even if that's not our full power, you've gotta be kidding me!" Dieci said. Then yellow bolts rained down on their position, forcing them to jump away. They landed, but Fate was right behind them.
"I've found you" Fate said.
"Here too?" Quattro was shocked
"She's fast." Dieci observed.
A male voice laughed in a nearly evil way and Shadow soon appeared in front of them opposite Fate "Going somewhere?"
"Huh? Where did you come from?" Quattro asked. She and Dieci tried to flee again. Fate and Shadow pursued them.
"Stop! You're under arrest for attempted murder and for use of dangerous magic inside city limits." Fate prepared her plasma lancer spell, while Shadow readied his Chaos Spear.
"Not today! IS activate: Silver Curtain" Quattro said and she disappeared along with Dieci.
"Do they really think they can get away that easily? Hmph. Pitiful... Hayate, I trust you have their position?" Shadow asked Hayate over communications
"Hai, Position confirmed" Hayate answered.
"Shadow, let's get out of here then." Fate said
"Got it.." the duo warped out of the area with Shadow's Chaos Control. Diecia and Quattro appeared on the ground.
"They left?" Dieci asked
"Yeah.. but why?" Quattro answered then gasped when she saw a large dark orb floating above their position.
"A wide-area spatial attack!" Dieci observed
"No way!" Quattro was shocked
-With Hayate-
Hayate prepared that spell and chanted "In a distant land, sink into the darkness... Diabolic Emission!" and unleashed the spell.
-Back with Dieci and Quattro-
The spell began to expand rapidly engulfing buildings and anything in its path. Despite that, there was no damage to any of the structures in the path. Quattro and Dieci fled as fast as they could to try and avoid it. They managed to escape it, only to encounter Nanoha, Fate and Shadow.
"We won't surrender. Just as there is danger escape." Bardiche said as Fate prepared a spell in front of her.
"Knock out by buster. After that, arrested." Raising Heart added as Nanoha began charging her own spell from the tip.
"Reflect upon your weakness and despair" Black Shot declared as Shadow glowed a crimson red aura in preparation for his blast.
All that Dieci and Quattro could do was wait for what was to come. Another individual had other plans
-Elsewhere-
"Dieci, Quattro, stand still.. IS Activate: Wide Impulse!" a deep female voice spoke as an older teenage girl stood in the air with a purple sigil at her feet.
-Back to Nanoha, Fate and Shadow-
"Trident..." Fate started as Baridche loaded 2 cartridges into it's revolver, powering it up "Smasher!" and fired a trident shaped blast aiming for the duo.
"Excellion..." Nanoha started as well as Raising Heart loaded cartridges as well "Buster!" she finished and fired her pink bombardment spell.
"Chaos..." Shadow started and charged up energy inside himself "Blast!" and unleashed his explosion attack upon the targets too. The three massive blasts made contact with one another causing a massive explosion on impact.
-Long Arch Communications Room-
Shari and the communications team were happy and excited for the tri attack.
"Bingo!" Alto said
"No, They dodged it!" Nanoha informed them.
"They were rescued at the last second" Fate added
Shadow finished "I can't find them on Chaos Control either.."
"Alto, follow them!" Nanoha ordered.
-Elsewhere-
Appearing from a purple flash were Quattro, Dieci and a purple-haired older girl who rescued them.
"Tre-nee (older sister), thank you very much" Quattro thanked the girl, identified as Tre.
"Thank you.." Dieci added.
"Don't just sit there." Tre said, her face revealing her yellow eyes. "Stand up.. bakas. I was just here to keep an eye on you, but I'm glad I came. Sei (Sein) has already finished recovering the hedgehog and the case. We'll meet up with them and return."
-Long Arch communications room-
"The signal's gone. So is the abnormal one.." was reported.
-With Hayate-
Hayate adopted a thinking pose "They got away huh?"
-Back with the Forwards-
"Yeah, sorry. We've totally failed here. The hedgehog got away and they took the case too" Vita informed. As she was reporting, Ginga nudged Subaru with her elbow "I'm sorry" Vita finished.
"Ano, Vice-Captain Vita." Subaru started, but couldn't finish when the red knight (Vita) pointed Eisen at her.
"Yeah, the forwards did just fine. This was totally my failure.." Vita continued. Sonic started to poke her too, but she paid it no mind aside from swatting his finger away.
"Vice-Captain.." Teana said.
"What? I'm in the middle of my report!" Vita barked back at them.
"They were trying to say something..." Sonic noted.
Teana followed up "There was so much tension that we didn't have time to say it, but..."
"We sort of did something to the Relic" Subaru said.
-Jail's Lab-
Arriving were Tre, Dieci, Quattro, Sein, Silver, and Agito.
"Thank goodness we made it out of there.. Even more glad that Silver-sama had his ESP jam the Bureau's sensors." Tre said
"Oh Sein, see what's in the case" Quattro said.
"Okay." Sein acknowledged and set the metallic relic case on a table. She then let her finger glow light-blue and then dragged it along the edge of the case, a red glow occurred from the case and it unlocked. Sein lifted up the lid "Ta-dah!" Only to reveal... Zonk! Nothing! It was empty! The only thing in the case was this yellow sign that said "Here's your Sign" on the front, with the appropriate japanese kanji translation.. and on the other side, the sign read "I'm stupid" again with the proper translation added.
-Insert the losing horn from Price is Right-
"What's going on?" Tre said.
"Sei-chan? You couldn't have.." Quattro started
Sein got the equivalent of red cross-popping veins when she turned to Quattro "Urusai! I got it perfectly!"
"You didn't screw up on your Deep Diver and dropped only the insides did you?" Dieci asked
"I did not! I scanned it and confirmed it to be the real case" Sein pulled up infrared images of her scan "See?"
Dieci took a look and saw the case to be real "Well, the case really is the real thing".
Tre looked at the same screen Dieci did and gasped a bit from what she saw.
"That's strange" Quattro observed.
"You idiots. Are you blind? Look!" Tre pointed to a reading from... Caro's hat?
-With Sonic, Vita and the Forwards-
Teana explained the plan she put together with Caro "The case wasn't a silhouette, it was real. My silhouettes are weak and they would find out the minute they took it."
"So we opened the case and put a heavy seal on the Relic." Caro added
"As for the Relic itself..." Subaru removed Caro's hat revealing a hairband with a flower on top of it
"Like this" Teana snapped her fingers and the flower turned into the Relic "We thought we'd let Caro have it since she has the least direct contact with the enemy, that and we wanted them to know they were tricked so we put in a joke sign we bought at a souvenir shop today.."
"I see.." Rein observed.
Sonic just started laughing and soon Vita joined him in it.. The hedgehog spoke between laughs "Nice! Bonus points, what a laugh, you actually tricked them.." he got up and clapped for them "Hat trick! Bonus points for the joke."
-Overlooking the bridge where the forwards were at-
Signum and Schach observed the group from afar. Schach was out of her church outfit and in place of it wore a dark bluesleeveless shirt with gloves that extended up to her forearms, and a waist-cloak over dark blue shorts and long socks.
"Seems there was no need for us to do anything." Signum observed.
"The mission was a success, let's be happy" Schach added as she held her small blade device over her shoulder.
-Jail's Lab-
"We were tricked" Dieci said
"I'm sorry, Silver-sama." Tre apologized.
"It's okay, don't worry... We made it through today.." Silver walked away..
-Saint Hospital-
The young blonde was resting in a hospital bed with an IV to her arm. Emerl was sat with his back to the wall of the room the girl was in.
Nanoha walked through the hall of the hospital while also accompanied by Sonic 'We finished the examination; there doesn't seem to be any problem, so we'll be heading back.' she sent to Fate.
'Roger' Fate responded
'How's the forwards?' Sonic asked since after the incident he accompanied Nanoha to the hospital.
'They're fine, that hedgehog named Silver didn't do too much to them, their wounds were light, and they already finished their reports so they're probably resting in their rooms'
'Okay,' Sonic replied
'I need to get back and write a report myself, I think this one's gonna be pretty long.' Nanoha sent mentally as the duo caught sight of a cart that had stuff ranging from peanuts to stuffed animals, a small white bunny wearing a purple bow around it's neck.
'Yeah.. We went through a lot today...' Sonic added
'Don't worry.. I've got the documents and data ready for you both.'
'Arigatou' Nanoha thanked Fate.
'Thank you' Sonic added.
Nanoha and Sonic took the bunny over to the little kid's room. The brunette placed it on her bed. The blonde let out one word in her sleep "Mama".
Nanoha and Sonic found chairs to sit bedside the girl. She placed her hand on the girl's cheek. "Don't worry.. I'm here.. You have nothing to worry about."
Sonic added with his own touch of comfort "There there.. we're here for you."
The girl seemed to calm down and let herself sleep again.
-End of Main Chapter-
-Omake: Hayate's cosplay bet: Final Fantasy VIII-
To make up for her little foot in mouth moment from the previous time, Hayate let Nanoha and Fate watch this one.
"Okay Hayate, what am I looking at here?" Sonic asked as he looked at his next outfit, which was a short leather jacket with long sleeves and fur along the collar with a white undershirt, black gloves, and black leather pants with brown belts wrapped in a near X around the waist. The prop was a sword with a revolver gun handle for the hilt.
"Squall from Final Fantasy VIII, yes he's a bit of a loner but hey he's on the masculine side... At least it'll make up for what happened last time.. when I joked about..." Hayate said but was interrupted by glares from Nanoha and Fate.
"Thin ice, Hayate. Thin ice." Fate warned.
"There is a reason we're watching Hayate-chan." Nanoha added
"Awe. Come on, you're still mad about that? Look at it this way" Hayate started as Sonic tuned out the conversation to put on his outfit. Hayate finished "At least you could say he's "Fun-sized""
The glares continued "You're lucky Sonic wasn't around to hear that." Fate said
Sonic came out now dressed in the outfit.. "Um... ta-dah? The leather isn't too comfortable"
Hayate admired the work "Hey at least you look cute in it."
Even Nanoha and Fate couldn't deny that. But they kept their thoughts to themselves and didn't act on it. Although they had looks on their faces that would guarantee that things would get fun later in the night.
-Ending "Hoshizora no Spica" Yukari Tamura-
-End of Chapter-
Author's notes: And done... Oy.. this is getting tiring.. I've been working hard the past few weeks with family matters. But I managed to get this done. Oh there's a challenge for the trivia. I left several references for readers to guess, try to find them if you can. Good luck.
