Chapter 26-Family


Fate's POV

The room is quiet except for the beeping of the heart monitor and the machine helping you to breathe. I can't believe it's been four days since we founded and rescued you. There's been no change in your condition, although the Doctor said that you're stable. I still worry that I could lose you.

I hold your hand in mine, gently rubbing my thumb on the back of your hand in circles. It's the only thing that I can do besides sit here and watch you day after day. I'm afraid that you're not going to wake up before I have to leave and go back to Mid-Childa. You'll probably never know how much I care about you until after I'm gone.

If I could I would crawl in the bed next to you and pull you into my arms and hold you until you woke up, but I was already scolded by the Doctor for even attempting such a feat in your condition. That doesn't mean I still don't want to try. I want to feel you in my arms and know that you are real, and safe.

When your mother and Vivio come to visit the first thing that Vivio does is climb up onto your bed and puts her ear against your chest so that she can hear your heartbeat. After a few minutes, we both notice that she falls asleep. From what I understand from your mother, it's the only time she gets any sleep when I'm not staying at the house. I know that Vivio needs her mama, not just me.

To think that you are so close, yet so far away from me. I pray every day that you will wake up. It feels like all of my prayers so far have been in vain, as you're still sleeping a deep sleep that I cannot reach. I stretch my hand up and caress your face, but there is no reaction that you feel my touch.

Someone softly knocks on your door and slowly opens it, another one of your daily visitors Hayate. She smiles at me, but it's a smile of sadness as she sees that I'm still despondent and holding your hand. She walks up next to me, puts her hand on my shoulder, and gives it a slight squeeze trying to give me reassurance that everything will be all right.

"Has there been any change Fate?"

"No, but the doctor hasn't been in yet today."

"Admiral Harlaown said she can't hold back the brass anymore. I'm going to have to turn the paperwork in soon. I was hoping to be able to give you a little bit more time before those vacation days kick in. It looks like you're going to have to leave in three days. I'm truly sorry I couldn't give you more time."

"It's all right, Hayate I appreciate everybody trying to give us as much time as possible. I know we are all hoping that she would wake up before I have to leave, but now I'm not so sure that that will happen."

"Everything will work out Fate, I'm sure of it."

"Has there been any word on that scientist that was in charge of this whole mess?"

"No, the six women who tried to save Nanoha, have given all of the information that they had, including laboratories that we still didn't know about. The Admiral and Commander Chrono are trying to get them lenient sentences as they did try to rescue her, as well as the information that they provided before he could wipe out the computer system.

The other six are being held under strict security, as there have been several attempts to escape from their cells. They also have shown no remorse on anything that they have done. They act as if we're the ones that are in the wrong, not themselves."

"I hope he's found soon. I know little Vivio is terrified that he is still free. Not to mention that I'm still worried he could still do something to Nanoha, and we wouldn't know it."

There was a strong knock on the door and both of us turned to look as Doctor Graham stuck his head in the room. "Pardon me, ladies, but I need to check up on my patient."

We both acknowledged his presence with a nod as he walked up to the other side of your bed. He took his stethoscope and listened to your heart rate, then listened to your lungs. After he was done, he draped them around his neck. Then he proceeded to take the machine that is helping you to breathe off of you.

I'm quite sure he could see the worry on our faces, so he started to explain why he was doing it. "Her lungs are strong enough to breathe on their own. She no longer needs the machine. Although I'm still going to have her on oxygen she just won't need a machine to help her breathe." After placing the oxygen mask over your nose and mouth, he looked at the both of us, and had a sad smile on his face. "If she doesn't wake up by tomorrow morning were going to do an EEG to see what her brain wave patterns are. If there is a lot of activity, then there's a good chance she'll wake up soon, but if there isn't, then it could mean one of two things, she's in a deep coma or she is brain-dead. I don't think she is the latter. I'm only hoping she's in a coma, but I wanted to make you aware of the situation."

"Thank you Doctor Graham for taking such good care of her, I know that it has been very difficult on her family to see her like this."

"It's also been difficult on the two of you as well. I'm just hoping that this EEG will be different from the one when she was first brought in. Oh, that reminds me Ms. Harlaown, I need to speak to you for a moment outside, please."

"Of course doctor I'll be right back Hayate."

"I'll keep her company for you."

The Doctor and I stepped outside into the hall. Then we made our way slowly to the nurses' station. "I know you've expressed interest in whose DNA was used for little Vivio, I just received the results and I think you're going to be hopefully pleasantly surprised."

He handed me a folder and I opened it and read the results. My heart rate picked up. They had used Nanoha's DNA, but they had also used mine, which means that Vivio really was my daughter. No, she was our daughter. I felt such happiness and joy swell up inside of me. I'm quite sure that it showed on my face as the doctor smiled at me and nodded his head. I felt a tear come to my eye, but I didn't dare let it fall. Even though this was such joyous news, it was still dampened with the fact that Nanoha has not yet awoken.

"Thank you Doctor my family will be very happy to hear about the new edition to our family. I'm gonna go back to Nanoha and tell her the good news, even if she doesn't hear me I can at least tell her."

"Ms. Harlaown, you would be surprised at what some comatose patients tell us that they heard when they were in that state."

I made my way back to your door I knocked once to let Hayate know I was coming in and slowly pushed open the door. I didn't see anything out of the ordinary, so I walked up next to Hayate, and handed her the folder.

"Nanoha I have some good news. It seems that Vivio really is your biological daughter, but there's more. They also used my DNA as well I just wanted you to know."

"Fate how is that possible. The list didn't show Harlaown DNA, it showed Scrya, Takamachi, and Testarossa."

"That's because my biological surname is Testarossa, not Harlaown. Admiral Harlaown Lindy, although at the time she was a Captain adopted me and my sister Alicia after our mother had been caught doing illegal experiments, similar to this case."

*Gasp* "Is that why Signum called you Testarossa, the other day?"

"Yes, ever since she found out what the 'T' stands for in my name, she's called me that."

"Wow, not only is Nanoha, the love of your life, but you share a daughter together. The three of you make a beautiful family. I hope someday I'll be able to tell my special someone how I feel about her."

"Don't worry, Hayate I have a really good feeling that everything will work out for you. Just give it some time."

"Well I better get back to base. I need to finish doing up those reports before I am chewed out for not having them in sooner. I'll see you tomorrow Fate, and hopefully, Nanoha will be awake by then."

"I hope so too. I'll see you sometime tomorrow, Hayate."

After Hayate had left, I took my place again by your side, and gently took your hand in mine. What the doctor had said earlier about you being in a coma has me worried, but what has me more terrified would be that you were brain-dead and I would never have the chance to have a happily ever after with you.

I felt the tears well up into my eyes as I placed the back of your hand against my forehead, and finally let my fears come to the surface. Then our little bundle of joy came running in wanting to know if you were awake yet. I wiped away my tears and buried my fear, I had to be there for her and make sure she knew that we both really were her mama's.

"Has there been any change, Fate since yesterday?"

"I'm sorry, Mrs. Takamachi other than her being removed from the breathing machine and put on just oxygen, no there's been no change."

"I see."

Vivio crawled up onto your bed and took up her usual place with her head just above your heart so that she could hear it, and again shortly after she was sound asleep. Your mother and I had a light conversation as we usually do. After about two hours, she scoops up little Vivio, and I give her a kiss on the forehead before your mother takes her home.

I sit back down in the chair and pick up your hand once more. After a few minutes, I laid my head down on your leg, I must have fallen asleep. What was the sensation that I was feeling. It feels like someone is stroking my hair is that mom or maybe Alicia flew in from America to help give me moral support?

I pick my head up and see the most beautiful blue eyes looking back at me with a slight smile on your face. You entangle your fingers in my hair as I stand up and smile at you. "Hi, it's nice to meet you, my name is…"
