How old is Nanoha at this point?

"What's that?" > > "Only the strongest, coolest ninja in all of Fire Country!" > > "Are you sure you didn't hit your head?" > > Naruto blinked. > > "Ah!" she suddenly shouted before bowing.

"I have his address." > > Naruto blinked again. "How do you know..." > > "Ah," Nanoha apologized. "I'm sorry, but we weren't sure > about your bag so we looked inside. Sensei found your ID card..." > > "ID card?" Naruto parroted. > > "Yes," the doctor agreed.

"Wait... as she > left, she called herself... what was it... ah. > 'Taka-mi-something-no-kami.' But..." > > Nanoha paled. "Kami?" > > "Yeah, but there's no way she really was..." > > "No," Nanoha disagreed. "She appeared to me, too. I don't > really understand what she said, but... she sent you here to > make friends, right?" > > Naruto dumbly nodded. > > "What about your friends where you came from? Won't you > miss them?" > > "What friends?" > > "Whaaaat?!" Nanoha yelled. > > Naruto watched dumbly as his new acquaintance, in his > opinion, overreacted to his statement.

"But... I don't know how to > do that... how to become friends..." > > "It's simple," Nanoha explained, smiling. "Becoming > friends is really simple. You just have to say my name. > That's all you need to do at the beginning. Just look into > someone's eyes and say their name." She met Naruto's gaze and > continued. "I'm Takamachi Nanoha. Just call me Nanoha." > > "Nanoha?" Naruto hesitantly asked. > > "Yes, like that." > > "Nanoha..." > > "Yes," Nanoha stated, grabbing Naruto's hand. > > "Thank you, Nanoha-chan...," Naruto said, tears welling > up in his eyes as he smiled at his new friend. > > "No, Naruto-kun," Nanoha reassured him. "I'm happy to be > your friend." > > After a few moments of standing there the moment passed > and Naruto moved on to other topics as they resumed their walk. > > "By the way, Nanoha-chan," he asked, "what was that thing > you were talking into earlier?" > > Nanoha blinked, pulling out her cell-phone. "You mean > this? It's just my cell phone." > > "What's a cell phone?" > > Nanoha blinked again. "You've never seen a cell-phone > before?" She dismissed the comment, knowing that cell phones > weren't common in many places and started to explain. As she > finished, Nanoha noted that Naruto still seemed confused > about something. > > "I see..." Naruto replied. "Just one question." > > "Yes?" > > "What's a telephone?" > > Nanoha just stood dumbly for a few moments as Naruto's > question registered... before starting another explanation. > "A different world indeed," Nanoha thought, remembering what > the strange lady who claimed to be a kami had told her. > > For the rest of the trip to Nanoha's home she and Naruto > traded companionable banter... although it wasn't without > surprises for both parties. > > "Anyway," Nanoha explained as they approached her house, > "Midoriya is our coffee shop at the marketplace in front of > the train station.

It's a really popular place for > girls coming home from school and ladies around the neighborhood." > > Naruto nodded in understanding, having had the concept of > a "train station" explained to him earlier. > > "So... what kind of cake do you like?" > > Naruto paused for a moment. "I don't know," he admitted. > "I've never had any." > > "Don't tell me that you don't have cake where you're from!" > > Naruto shook his head. "No, we have it," he explained. > "I've just never had any." > > Nanoha paused at her door. "Well, we'll just have to fix > that, then!" > And with that she opened her door and walked in.
