Chapter 7-Lightning's Salvation

Nanoha's POV

The darkness is nice and quiet. At least it was to start with. As the darkness started to recede, I could hear voices in the background. They were jumbled talking over each other. Some of them sounded angry, others tried sounding soothing, but were failing and most of the voices I was hearing sounded female but there was one male voice and he sounded angriest of them all.

Something was wrapped around me. It felt nice and warm. I feel protected here like nothing or no one could hurt me. The voices on the outside were getting angrier and scarier. By the sounds of it, one of the females was arguing with the male and the louder they got, the more scared I became. I didn't recognize these voices. Who are these people and why are they scaring me?

The warmth that is around me held me tighter into it and I bury my face deep into the security I felt here. All I wanted was to stay in this safety and those voices to go away because now they were starting to hurt my head.

Something was touching me in my mind. It was like a hand was caressing and trying to sooth the pain away. Then a voice that was different from the others, it was singing a song. It's a beautiful voice and I wanted that voice to drown out the noise that I was hearing in my ears, so I just concentrated on that beautiful voice that was inside my head; a voice that was not mine.

I started to notice that the fear and the pain were going away just by listening to this beautiful voice. I wanted to find the source, find out who it belonged to. When the singing stopped and it started to giggle.

"I am right here beside you. I am the one who is holding you. Do you want me to make the other voices in the room go away?"

"Yes, they're scaring me and hurting my head with their arguing."

"Then I will make the voices go away for a short time, but they will come back in time. They're all worried about you. You have given us all quite a scar. It will be hard to keep them away from you for any length of time."

"That's okay, as long as there are fewer people. I think I'll be all right, but right now I just want to be alone in my darkness with you."

The voice giggled again and I felt a wave of warmth and love blanket move over me. Then I heard the voice that was in my head in my ears.

"Can I get everyone's attention please? Can everyone stop arguing? I need everyone to leave the infirmary, except, Shamal. You're arguing and loud voices are scaring Nanoha, as well as the fact that they are causing her pain."

The voices had stopped in the room. It was so quiet you probably could have heard a pin drop. My body relaxed into the one that was holding me. I hadn't realized that my body had tensed up because of the loud voices. A hand went from my back to cover my ear. This movement seems to confuse me until there became an explosion from the male voice in the room.

"How dare you say that? I need to leave my sister? What right do you have to order any of us out of this room? I am not going to leave my sister in the hands of a monster like you. I know your history as a thief and I'm not going to allow you to corrupt my sister."

That's when I felt it her body tense and a wave of anger and hatred wash over me. It scared me so much that I started to pull away from the place I felt safest. When she realized that I was scared of her, it vanished and there was a void of emotions in its place.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. My anger got the better of me. I will try not to let that happen again, Okay."

"Okay, but he seems to be a really scary and angry man and I just want him to go away."

"I'll make him go away without getting angry. Okay, are you going to be all right?"

"Yes, I'll be all right for now. Thank you."

"You're welcome, my sweet."

"Would someone please remove Yuuno from the room as he is really terrifying Nanoha? Right now would be good."

There was a lot of noise like scuffling as well is the man crying out in pain as he seemed to be forcefully removed from where we were at. Then I heard more noise, but this noise was moving away almost like they were feet shuffling away. But then there was silence, I didn't know if it was just the two of us or not, but I felt safe once more and I could relax my body again.

"Is that better. Do you feel more comfortable now?"

"Yes, much better. Thank you again."

"You do not need to thank me my sweet. I would do anything for you."

"You seem to know me. Can you tell me a little bit about myself? I seem to be having a hard time getting through this gray cloud in my head."

"Do you remember your name at all?"

"… … I'm not sure, there are a couple of names in my head, but I'm not sure which one is mine."

"Your name is Nanoha Takamachi and my name is Fate Testarossa."

I don't know how long we had been at it, but over time, that heavy cloud had started to lift and pieces of my past and the present were starting to fall into place in my mind.

She helped me put names to faces, as she would sent me an image of a person and told me their name. She started with my family, my mother, father and older brother and sister, but the brother's name didn't match the man who claimed to be my brother. So I question why it was different. That's when she explained that Yuuno was my adopted brother not my blood brother.

Most of the cloud in my mind had lifted, but there were still some pieces missing and we both agreed that with time, they would come to the surface. But the memories I seem to hold dearest made me blush. As the woman that was holding me, wasn't just my best friend from childhood, she was also my partner and lover.

There were also some names that she didn't put faces to, but I'll ask her about those later. I slowly opened my eyes and pulled my head away from her chest, which is where I had my head buried. Her beautiful face came into view. She had given me two pictures of herself, and it was the second picture that was before me now.

This woman was just so beautiful. I felt the warmth in my heart. It was like warm sunlight spreading through my chest. And all I could think of was that I wanted to kiss this person and so I did.

It seems that I had surprised her as she wasn't expecting that. Hopefully it was a very pleasant surprise. I heard someone clear their throat and I was surprised. I thought we were alone. I could feel the warmth in my cheeks and buried my face back into her chest again. I could feel Fate's laugh start in her chest and then it came out her mouth in a rich and beautiful sound it was almost like music.

"Now that's a sound I have never heard come out of you Fate."

I looked around for the sound of the voice saying those words and off to the side was a blonde haired woman with violet eyes smiling at us. I was confused. I thought Fate had asked everyone to leave. That's when I remembered the rest of her words. Everyone except someone named Shamal. This woman is supposed to be our Dr. so I'm guessing she's going to need to examine me, but as long as Fate is here with me I'll be all right.

I don't know why I feel the need to cling to Fate. It's almost scary how much I need her to be with me, to be touching me, even if it's just holding my hand. It's been this way for almost two weeks now.

Fate says I'm going to meet my big brother and sister today. She also told me that they had all thought I was dead and I had been killed with my parents and that I should probably expect them to want to hug and kiss me when they first see me.

We are in our apartment and we just got word that they've arrived. I'm really nervous, afraid I won't recognize them, but Fate is right here next to me and she said everything is going to be all right. She wouldn't let anyone hurt me; they'd have to go through her first. Those words seemed to calm me down.

It was just like what Fate had said. The moment they saw me, they rushed at me, hugging and kissing me. I felt like I was suffocating. Fate must've felt my fear and panic because she pulled them off from me and stepped between us. I buried my face in her back. My entire body was trembling. Why I am so scared? They're my brother and sister, but to me they're total strangers.

We're now sitting down and I'm as close to Fate as I possibly can get without sitting on her lap and don't think I didn't think of that.

Fate was telling them the story of what had been happening about my amnesia, finally finding me, realizing who I was and helping me to regain my memories. It seems to be a lot for them to take in. But they accepted everything that she had been saying.

We had spent the entire day together. Having lunch and dinner with the two of them. When it was time for them to leave. I was able to hug them and kiss them with genuine feelings because my memories of them have been coming back throughout the day.

We're now lying in bed, skin to skin and in each other's arms. My head is on her shoulder as we talk about what had happened throughout the day. After a while I was getting very sleepy and halfway through our conversation I fell asleep.

Mama was looking at me with such sad eyes. She knew how much this was hurting me about the fact we had to move. I understood the reason why we had to leave. It was because of daddy's health. He had gotten hurt on the job and because of the climate, we needed to move and Japan had the best climate for his health. Not only that, but we were leaving that day, so I wasn't given much time to spend with my friends and say goodbye.

'Nanoha please. You need to stop crying and go say goodbye to your two friends. Make sure you give them the message that you'll write to them as soon as we get to our new home and as soon as we have enough money saved up, will send for them so they can come visit us. But don't tell them what we have discussed as a family about wanting to adopt them. So the three of you will never be apart again. Now come on, honey, this is going to be the hardest thing you'll have to do, but remember, there will be a happy ending when it's all over.'

I was running to my friend's house to tell them goodbye and to give them the message that mama and daddy wanted me to tell them. But when I got there, the words got stuck in my throat. They both looked so happy to see me. It hurt inside to tell my best friend and her sister, my secret love that I have to say goodbye to them. The words burned in my throat, but I couldn't say them.

'Hey, Nanoha you've come to visit us early today.' The older of the two sisters would always speak to me first. They both look so happy and excited that I was there. Little did they know that their world and mine was about to come crashing down.

Looking at them I knew what I was about to tell them would break their hearts because I know it was breaking mine. They both could see that I wasn't smiling and my eyes were sad, so they knew something was wrong. I saw their happiness turn to concern over what could possibly not make me so happy to see them.

'Nanoha what's wrong? You look like you're about to break down and cry. You can tell us and we'll help you.' At those words, the tears started to leak from my eyes, but I didn't know how to stop them.

'Mama and daddy told me I had t…t…to say g…g…goodbye, but I don't want to. They told me last night I had to pack my clothes and things and that we were moving far away to a foreign country.'

'Nanoha no, this can't be true. We're supposed to stay together…the three of us.' As I continued to cry, I could see the look in the younger sister's eyes. It went from sadness to hurt then anger.

Out of nowhere, the younger sister walks up to me and slaps my face.' Liar! I hate you! I hate liars! You promised us that we would always stay together forever. Now you're telling us that we can never be together again. You're nothing but a big fat liar! I want nothing to do with you ever again! I never want see you ever again!' And with that she spun around and went running towards their foster family's house. The older sister not knowing what to do smiled sadly at me and went running after her sister.

I woke up screaming and crying and the next thing I knew, I had warm and caring arms wrapped around me. Her hand was stroking my back, trying to calm me down from the dream that I had just had, or more like a nightmare.

I had to ask her, no matter how much it hurts, I had to know." Fate, do you still hate me?" Her body stiffened at my question. "Because I was never a liar. I never got a chance to tell you everything that mama and daddy wanted you to know. They were going to save up money and have you come visit us." My body was trembling as I was trying to get out my words that I had been unable to get out all those years ago.

"Not only that, but they had been talking to a lawyer about adopting the two of you into the family. They were going to ask you about it when you came to visit. You see, right after we were going to get back from our holiday, they were going to mail you the plane tickets and once you were here, they were going to start the paperwork for adoption so that we would've been a family and we never would have been separated again. Just like I had promised." By this time my tears had started flowing once more afraid of what her answer would be to my question.

"So do you still hate me Fate?"

Her hand moved to cup my face and her thumb brushed my tears away. When I looked into her eyes, I saw great pain. A pain that may never truly heal, but I wanted to heal it. I wanted to make this woman whole. I loved her so much that it scares me to hear her answer.

As I continued to gaze into those beautiful red eyes, they filled with tears. She opened her mouth as if she was going to answer me and then closed it again and swallowed hard as if her throat had closed up and she was trying to get the words passed it.

"Nanoha I never hated you. I was in love with you and I took my pain out on the only person I didn't want to hurt. After I had run away from hitting you and saying those words, Alicia had calmed me down and convinced me that I needed to apologize to you, but when we got to your house you were already gone and I have lived with the regret of knowing that my last words to you, had been so cruel and hateful. And when we found out that you had been killed, I thought I had cursed you to your death. On that day I died inside because I knew I was never going to be able to look upon your face ever again and tell you that I loved you. So the answer to that question is a wholehearted no. I do not hate you. I never did because I never stopped loving you."

"You were in love with me even back then?" Fate nodded her head yes as it seemed words were too much for her as the tears were pouring from her eyes. "Because I fell in love with you too the first day we met, the day you were crying in Alicia's arms."

And with those words, it was like a flood gate had opened and all of my memories past and present came rushing at me and I gasped as everything made sense to me. I could remember everything from my family to everybody I knew here at section 6, even that wonderful day when Fate and I become lovers. Everything became clear once more.

I tackled Fate down to the bed, draping my body over hers looking at her face. I could still see tears leaking from her eyes so I did the only thing that I could think of to do, something that mama always did when one of us got hurt. First I kissed one of her eyes. Then I kissed the other. And then I kissed her lips and whispered these words against them.

"Pain, pain, fly away."

And then I devoured her mouth pouring all the passion and love I have for her into that searing kiss. She folded her arms around me, pulling me tight into her body. She hasn't touched or made love to me since that day I had lost consciousness, but now, I wanted to make up for lost time.

I moved from her mouth to the side of her neck and started to suck, drawing her blood to the surface. I wanted the world to see that this woman was mine and that I laid claim to her. When I was done, I gently licked my tongue over the bruise that I had just created.

The look in her eyes said that she wanted me as badly as I wanted her. So I gently kissed her lips and turned my body around so that her head was between my legs and mine was between hers.

She took her hands and placed them on my butt cheeks and pulled me down on to her face and the only thing I can describe next was the fact that she was French kissing me down there as deep as possible. As I wanted us both to orgasm at the same time, I started kissing and licking her.

Then I started to mimic everything that she was doing. If she was French kissing me, I would do the same to her. If she was just licking me, I would do the same. Everything she did I would mimic. I could feel myself building to an orgasm, but then she did something. I felt a tiny shock inside of me; it came from the end of her tongue and caused the muscles inside to contract, which pushed me over into my climax. And then I felt another shock again inside of me. It wasn't painful as it was the type of shock one would get from static electricity, but the fact that it was in such a sensitive area actually increased my pleasure.

To show how much I thoroughly enjoyed that wonderful feeling, I went to work on her in earnest. In a short amount of time, I pushed her over into her own climax. After I finished cleaning, her I rolled off from her panting out my exhaustion.

After a few minutes, I could feel her hands caressing me. Then she was moving me so that my head was on the pillow. Gently she recaptured my lips and allowed her hands to wonder my body. She was slowly and gently giving me a massage from my neck down to my feet and then she rolled me over and repeated. By the time she was done I was ready to fall asleep. So she pulled the blankets back up over us and cuddled next to me, and before I was lost to sleep. I heard her whisper "I love you, Nanoha" a gentle smile was on my lips as I let darkness take me.

"Caro, Lulu, we need to find it. He says that is a very important to his plans. Let's split up and search the city. It couldn't have gotten too far and the faster that he is done with his plans the better off we will be."

Authors notes: I would at this time like to do a moment of silence for those that have lost their lives in the tragic earthquake and tsunami that devastated Japan. I light a virtual candle to help guide the survivors so that they can find strength to carry on in the face of this tragedy.

Now about the chapter I hope you all enjoyed it as I may have to go biweekly with this story as chapter 8 has not come to me. I have tried figuring out how to get around it like I did with chapter 5 but that would be extremely difficult as things are going to start moving at this point.

Now the good news in place of working on chapter 8 my muse has been working on a new story A College Romance I actually have quite a few chapters of this done they're all pretty much short chapters but it's a cute story so far and I will be posting this until chapter 8 comes to me then I will be posting both stories.

Please review and tell me what you think I look forward to reading your reviews and answering every single one of them.

In Love & Light,
