Writers preface: I am writing this in all knowledge that I have only the briefest understanding of the entire Manga series as it is written. I have fallen in love with the characters of this series as all of you have and I want their dreams to come to fruition. This is set 20 years into the future from the point where the Anime' series left off and includes some of the writing of one of my favorite authors here and a continuation of his story. I may not bring his vision of the plot to greatness but it is my hopes and dreams for these people to have a truly happy life………….. Even if it is in my own mind.

The Wonders of LOVE

The alarm was going off as Asuna looked over at the dresser next to the bed. "Uggg! 5:30 already?" She reaches out and kills the alarm, then settles back into the warm embrace of her loving and devoted husband, Negi Springfield.

"Time to get up already?" he whispers in her ear in his now very intimate British accent that still sends tingles down her spine.

"Unfortunately, yes if those boys and that girl are going to make it to school on time." She says back in her now nearly perfect English. It is a wonder what marrying your English professor does for your skills she mused as she turns and kisses him on the cheek and extracts herself from his arms.

As Asuna prepares herself for the morning rush around the house she smiles at how wonderful her life has become over the last 15 years since she and Negi married. And as their anniversary was coming up she knew that most of their friends from the beginning were going to be coming for a reunion party back at Mahora Academy.

The boys. Alexander and Nagi were already stirring as she knocked on their door and prompted them to take their baths and to wash their hair. She knocked on their daughter Alexandra's door opening it to find a redheaded image of herself at 14 putting the bells into her twin pigtails and smiled to herself.

"So this is what I looked like when Negi first saw me those many years ago." She mused to herself.

Breakfast was a hurried affair as she dashed about making lunches for the boys before they were teleported to the School of magic back in England for the start of the new semester, they are both 10, and preparing Alexandra for her first day in 2A at the Academy.

Negi was still teaching at Mahora but now was the head of student affairs also. His assistant is Madoka Kugimiya. She got her license to teach and had come back to Mahora. She handles the more mundane aspects of student affairs while Negi busied himself with the more interesting aspects of the campus staff and student body. To sum it up he handled the magic end of business.

Negi's other responsibility was to be the official liaison between the Western Wizard Council and the Far Eastern Mage Council.

Asuna has taken to being a mother and housewife with joy and vigor and has not regretted it one bit, she does however spend several hours a week working out with the head of campus physical security, Setsuna Sakurazaki. And what a fearsome thing to see them going at it, you would believe that they were the bitterest of rivals or something like that until the workout was over. Setsuna, basically trained Asuna into being her match at armed combat so that she could be everything that Negi needed when magical combat was called for, which had not occurred for several years now, thank goodness.

"Quick, come here and give me a hug and a kiss before you leave boys." She calls as they pick up their staffs and oversized backpacks in preparation to popping off to England. They come and hug their mom with all the enthusiasm of 10 year olds.

The twins both have nearly the same level of power as their father did at his respective age but they have more of their mother's stuborness. They are however very soft spoken like their father unless they get excited. Then they can give the Narutaki twins a run for their money. Their physical differences are very pronounced and there is no mistaking which one is which. Alexander is already nearly 5 feet tall and looks to be becoming a very handsome young man. His red hair is the shade of his mothers and he likes to do it up in a pony tail with several wraps down to the middle of his back. Nagi is the spitting image of his Father at that age. Both boys love each other and back each other up at each task that they have to do. The only person that they are ever at odds with is their sister, but they will back her to the hilt if she has any problems that she can't handle.

Alexandra, their older sister, has no innate magical abilities but has tremendous athletic ability. She uses that to stay one step ahead of her younger siblings when they get rowdy. Alexandra is also the mirror image of her mother at that age. Alexandra is the school leader of several of the sports teams, Swimming, Soccer, and Track. She has also inherited her mother's innate ability to cancel out magic aimed at her that would harm her much to her parents surprise and delight. She also likes to go to Kendo practice over at the boy's academy and has earned high praise from her sensei there.

"Alexandra, here is your first day present from your Aunt Konoka and Aunt Setsuna." Asuna says as she hands over a largish box wrapped in bright colored paper. "They said to give it to you because you might need it to get to school on time. Oh and Boys here is your gift from Evangeline." She hands each of them a largish tome with mystical lettering on the covers. Both books were hand written by Evangeline and filled with as many "good" spells as she could remember, and that was a lot considering that she was several hundred years old.

Looking at Negi she questions "Are you sure that these are ok?"

"Evangeline has taken a liking to our sons such as I have never seen her take to anyone including me, and besides, She was the class leader and valedictorian of the class of 1542. She does know her stuff."

"That is what bothers me." Asuna mumbles under her breath

"Oh WOW!" Exclaims Alexandra as she pulls out her present and finds it to be a pair of shoes with roller blades that retract so she can use them as school shoes.

Negi chuckles to himself as he remembers the first time he met Konoka she was wearing an almost exact pair. And Asuna was effortlessly out pacing the entire school class that was rushing to class, at least until he made his introduction. Smiling he remembers the innocent remark that he made to Asuna that almost got him killed.

He looked at his ornate pocket watch and said, "Well boys are you ready?" They both nodded in unison as is their habit and stepped off to the middle of the living room.

The Magic circle faired and then suddenly the boys were off to England.

Looking at the clock on the wall. "Alexandra, you better get going if you are going to make it to first class on time." Asuna said.

She hugs her mother and dashes for the door in a flurry of Mahora skirt and pigtails grabbing her book bag on the way out of the door.

Left to themselves Asuna and Negi hug each other with pride. They are so proud of their children and know that they are the greatest blessing in their lives.

One the other side of the campus a somewhat similar scene is played out at the home of Evangeline A.K. McDowell and her servant Karakuri Chachamaru.

Since the curse had been broken 10 years before by Negi, Evangeline has desided to stay on at the school as the instructor of Magical affairs and also as the night watch for the campus. She still instructs Negi and to some extent Konoka in the use of magic as she has so many years of experience. Her heart has changed after spending so much time with Negi and company. The day that Negi shattered the curse she broke down and cried in front of all her friends because they all helped in the breaking. The biggest surprise was that she didn't know that they even liked her. They all cheered for her and that was when the heart of the ice witch and vampire melted. She almost ran and hid but Negi stopped her and told her that He was proud to be her friend. With that she promptly put on a glamour and became the most seductive 25 year old that she could dream up and hugged Negi to her bosom causing everyone to laugh as he flailed about trying to escape, everyone except Asuna that is.

After the attempt to find the lineage of Chao using the Mirror of Erised, and showing Chachamaru the results she became far more interested in working with Nakase in developing the process to allow her to become a mother, unlike the other time line in which she had given up her life to save her baby girl, Negi and Konoka were there to apply healing magic to the infant and nurse her to health. Konoka poured tremendous amounts of magical energy into saving baby Eva.

Asuna knew all about Eva after, Negi explained to her about the vision she had from the mirror, and was more than happy that Negi was willing to try and make Chachamarus dream become real. She wanted to be the female donor for Chachamaru and offered her services, but Chachamaru politely declined knowing that the only one she wanted was she who was her creator and master designer. Nakase. Chachamaru came to her and told her that as her "mother" she was to be the honored donor. Nakase blushed and then said yes to the process.

Eva at 10 is the smartest young lady in the class of 2A and looks VERY similar to Evangeline, when she isn't in her glamour, minus the fangs. Her one physical similarity to her "donors is her need to have glasses. She has a small set very like Negi's. Beyond that she is a very happy child with tremendous intellect and a hearty lust for boys her age. Evangeline smirks a lot when she starts chasing Negi's boys around trying to kiss them.

"Eva-musume it is time for you to be leaving for school. Have you got your books?" the quiet voice of Chachamaru said. A blur of blond hair and green eyes turned the corner from the stairs and ran to her mother and jumped at her landing in her arms kissing her cheeks hugging her. "Yes mama I am ready for school, I just wish that they didn't skip me ahead 4 grades and stick me in middle school with bigger kids than me." She pouted "I liked the primary school teachers."

Chachamaru looked at her beautiful daughter and smiled as she said, "You know everything that they will teach you there, so now it is time to move ahead and work with bigger concepts that will challenge you. I am so proud of you my daughter."

Chachamaru was leaking lense fluid from her optical sensors.

From behind her "Oh stop the water works. She is only going to be gone for a few hours and then she will be back full of stories to tell us. Get a grip on your processors Chachamaru." Said Evangeline

"If there is anyone that gives you a problem just remind them that your Aunt is Evangeline, and if that doesn't get it across to them then tell them that I hold night classes in the basement of the school building and they will be invited to class with me" Evangeline says as she strikes a dramatic pose for her friends child.

Eva jumps from her mothers arms into Evangeline's arms and kisses her glamour face till she loses control of her glamour and then is swamped by her twin in a hug. "Oh Aunt Evangeline you don't scare anyone anymore. And besides, Alexandra said she would stomp anyone that tried to hurt me."

Evangeline hrmphed at that remembering the trouble that Asuna had caused for her when Negi first arrived at Mahora, breaking every warding spell she cast trying to keep Asuna from kicking her in the face. Then smiling as she remembered that is was also Asuna that had become her first real friend after she quit trying to "drain" Negi and promised to help out with protecting him and teaching him. She suddenly felt her face flush.

"Well, off with you squirt." She said giving her a hug.

Chachamaru carefully kept her face neutral as she looked at her one time master and best friend. "I am off also to the daycare to begin my day" she said.

"And I believe that I am going to go and beat that old geezer of a dean at a few games of GO" said Evangeline.

"Isn't the Dean about 200 years younger than you?" Chachamaru asked innocently?

"HEY! Now that was uncalled for you.. you.. Best friend that I have." She hugged Chachamaru and then whisked out the door in search of that game of GO

Closer to the school one more scene is being played out.

"Sayo, what is keeping you?" Called out her mother

"Sayo, this will be embarrassing if you the ,vice principles daughter, were to be late for school on your first day of this semester!" called out her other mother.

Sayo, a beautiful brown haired blue eyed girl of 14 is another product of the mirror episode. Negi did find the spell to restore her to life, and as he promised to, and true to her words Asakura came back the following day after the phone call. The affair was very short and once again had to have the blessings of Asuna as they had only been married for 2 months at that time. Once Negi told her about the vision, Asuna called Asakura. Negi was terrified that Asuna would not understand and might even ask that their marriage be dissolved when she found out what the promise was, but she also has a big heart and loves the little ghost like any friend. Besides she was already pregnant with Alexandra at the time.

Sayo almost fainted when she heard the news from her best friend and her Sensei. The spell took several days to perform and during that time Negi and Asakura kept their promise to their little girl and nine months later Sayo was reborn.

Being true to herself Asakura then went to Konoka and Setsuna and asked them to be the foster mothers for her child. As a couple without the prospect of having a child of their own They happily agreed.

Asakura comes at all the major holidays to spend time with her daughter. She is so proud of her that she is having a harder and harder time going back to her work.

Negi and Asuna also spend time with her as Aunt Asuna and Uncle Papa.

Sayo also dragged a bit of her fathers magical energy along with her as her spirit moved from him into Asakura and if all the indications are correct she has magical power on a par with her foster mother Konoka. Needless to say that Great Grandfather Konoe was moved to a smile.

Sayo and Alexandra were born at the same time (hour minute second) and have been around each other from birth. They love to do things together and have personalities that are very similar. They are best friends and both are protectors of Eva. As a matter of fact it is Eva that usually gets them into trouble but they love her to death.

"SAYO! HURRY! DO NOT BE LATE!" Setsuna yells up the stairs.

"Seechan, not so loud you will wake grandfather" Konoka says

"Not today I won't He left about an hour ago, something about a game of GO"

Just then flying down the stairs comes Sayo in her Mahora uniform with her book bag flying behind her.

She blows kisses at her moms as she darts out the door on her way to class.

"I finally get to be a real LIVE student in 2A today!" she thinks to herself as she rushes to meet up with Alexandra and Eva. This is going to be a great year!

OK what do you think for a start?
