I do not Own Negima (Ken Akamatsu Does)
Negima – Tales of a Crow
Chapter 1: Beginning of an Adventure
Ten years ago… Two people from a clan of crow people escaped from their enemies; in the women's arms was a baby, in the following days, the two hided in a forest on the magical world close to the kingdom of Ostia, for some time the two lived there with the resident creatures until the day that they here called again to go into battle leaving the kid at the care of three nymphs.
They left the forest and won the battle but never came back which meant that they were dead even if they did won, the three nymphs stayed with the kid like their little brother and took care of him.
Ten years later in 1958, on the same forest, the three nymphs were bathing in the river waiting for someone.
"Were the hell is John?" Asked the nymph with the dark blue skin and water hair.
"I send him to get some fruit for us" Responded the nymph of the middle with the leaf hair and the wood brown skin.
"Damn you Wave, your making him your servant" Complain the third nymph that had a normal human form.
"Come on Aya gives us some slack" Wave responds.
"Yes... John likes to go on errands like this, what's wrong with that?" Continues the wood nymph.
"Hey Mint is that him coming?" Says Wave, Mint look's to the horizon and sees a boy with black hair only dressing black pants and a big medieval sword on his back secured by strings, that lands on front of them.
"Yes it is" Wave and Mint go to meet the boy.
"There they are, the fruits you asked for" The boy gives them a basket with the fruit to the two nymphs.
"Good boy John" Says Wave patting John in the head.
"His not your pet you know" Mint say to Wave. John then walks to Aya and lays down with is head over her lap closing is eyes.
"Why would you look at that" Wave says.
"What, your jealous or something?" Asks Mint
"Who me? Don't be ridiculous… well let's see the fruits"
Half an hour later, in the entry of the forest, five men that seemed to be chasing someone stopped, the one on the front was dressed in white robes, and behind him were two men with suit and tie and other two with robes almost like a samurai carrying a katana each, one of the suited takes some steps forward and talks to the men in white.
"Mr. Konoemon, is there here they went?" The man asked.
"Yes, but we must be careful, they are many, almost twenty" Responds Konoemon that starts to walk in the forest with the other men. At the same time, John open is eyes and sits in the ground in a flash.
"What is it John?" Asked Aya.
"Someone entered the forest and there is five" Responds John.
"See better John, other twenty entered four minutes before them" Interrupts Mint.
"Yes and they are not human, their lizardmans" Continues Wave. In that moment John gets up, picks up is sword and runs into the wild.
"John came back here!!" Screams Aya preoccupied.
"Oh man he's always like that" Says Mint.
"Let's go after him, he may need help." Continues Wave. The three nymphs run in the same direction of John. Many meters up ahead, Konoemon and is men get more in the center of the forest, at some time Konoemon makes all his men stop, sensing something in is front of them, immediately many lizardmans jump of the bushes and catches them unprepared, surrounding them, behind them appears a bigger and fatter Lizard man, the lizardmen had green skin but had more form and head of a human and did not had a tail.
"Hah Hah hah, I gotcha, you fell in your trap" Says the fat lizardman with a spear in is hands.
"You think you got us because of that?" Says Konoemon. In that moment some trees in their surroundings begin to fall around them. Konoemon notices that someone is cutting the trees taking advantage on the distracted lizardmans, the mans in suits summon fireballs that takedown some of the lizardmans, the men with katanas severely hurt the rest of the lizardmans leaving the fat lizardman alone against them, in that moment from the trees appears John with his sword in is hand.
"Who are you?" Asked John.
"We are here on a mission to catch that guy; he's a member of a clan of thief's that operates in this area… and my name is Konoemon Konoe" John looks to the lizardman.
"I know you; you were after my sisters weeks ago"
"The nymphs? So you are the little orphan runt" John takes the sword to is hand and prepared
to attack the lizardman. "Die you little midget!" The fat lizard tries to attack John that stops the attack and destroys the spear of the lizard that by seeing that start's to run for his life. When John was about o catch him, giant roots come from the ground and catch him keeping him paralyzed.
"It's Aya!" Says John as the three nymphs appear.
"He again, this guy is a pure pervert" Wave exclaims.
"Damn John you had me worried" Says Aya hugging John making not to breath because of her big breasts.
"Are you ok?" Wave Asks to Konoemon and is men.
"Yes, we are all in one piece thanks to you."
"I'm glad to wear that, hum… so you are taking him away right?"
"Yes but we were about to call it a day when they attacked us"
"No problem you can stay were for the night, we can give these lizardmen their lesson and fatty there will be imprisoned for a long time ready to go with you tomorrow"
"Very well, we accept your offer" The five men stay for the night.
Two hour later, the night installed in the forest, the nymphs made two fires for Konoemon and is men, then brought food and drinks for them.
"So from here do you come?" Aya asked Konoemon.
"We came from the ancient world or Human World if you will" Konoemon drinks some water. "We belong to a magic association called Kanto that maintain peace with magic"
"Cool" Said John very impressed.
"So you are the famous Kanto association" Continued Aya.
"I see you eared about us" After saying this he stares at John treating his sword with much care "You manage yourself very well with that sword, if you had martial arts training you could be better than that"
"Hum I see…are you inviting him to join your association?" Wave Asked.
"I'm not forcing him to go but you have noticed is spiritual energy? It means that he is not a normal kid."
"I had seen this in my dreams" Mint said. "I saw that someone was going to ask him to come with other people"
"Aya…" John said that moment.
"What is it?" Aya Asked.
"I what to go with him"
"What!? No you can't it's too dangerous!!"
"Aya don't be so hard it's a good deal he was made for this he has the strength and the speed and if he becomes more classy it's thats even better" Explained Mint.
"Yes it's good... why don't you go with him?" Continued Wave. "You will see and learn new things with him"
"Well…I think nothing bad will come of it" John throws a smile at Aya.
"Then it's decided" Konoemon said. All go to sleep after that conversation.
The next day Aya and John were ready to go.
"Good luck you two!" Said Mint out loud.
"Be a good boy John!" Continued Wave. After saying goodbye this all started to go to a local ranger north of the forest before going to a portal even more to the north.
"How much time is going to take to get there?" Aya asked.
"Almost half a day" After walking some kilometers they arrive to the ranger's cell. "Where he is like promised" After this they locked the Lizardman in a cell they continue their journey, finishing by passing the portal in a temple.
After passing to the other side, some priestesses and other mages where waiting for them.
"Welcome home Master Konoemon!" All of the mages said.
"What? You're the master of the association?" John asked impressed.
"Yes I am; I forgot to tell you that" While Konoemon was talking something in the ceiling above him, Aya noticed him and screamed.
"Watch out Konoemon-San!" Konoemon reacts in the last moment that a lizardman tried to attack him, two of the mages reacted instantaneously killing the lizardman with two beams of light.
"Thank you Aya-kun" Konoemon inspected the body "I see, he was the brother of the lizardman we captured" Konoemon asks for the body to be removed. "Now please Aya and John follow the priestess. "They will show you your rooms" While they here in there John and Aya learned much about the human world
One day, Konoemon called them to go to the training room.
"Welcome… are you ready John? Let's start our training" The two started their training and continued it in the coming moths.
