Title: Viva la Vacation

Author's Note: I AM SO SORRY. I am putting that out there right now. I know I promised you the 7th Chapter of NFN but let me tell you the story. I had writer's block then decided to read some fan fics. One caught my attention, The Mage and The Swordsman. I thought "cool", and I read it to the end. Then I though "Hey Negi going on a vacation? Not bad. I'll tweak it a bit though." And this is what I got. When I'm done with this I swear on my name, I'll get the 7th chapter of NFN. But this isn't a one shot so that might be a while. Enough of this go and read!

Chapter 1: Mission?

Tears were streaming down Nodoka's face as she ran. She had to get away. Away from HIM. He who had made her life so great. He who dated her and made the past year the best of her life. He who now broke what all they had together in one sentence. "I'm sorry Nodoka, but I don't think I can do this anymore. I'm breaking up with you." His harsh words echoed all the way into the chasms of her mind. She ran and ran, all the way to her room. She leapt in, slammed the door, and cried herself to sleep.

Negi watched the sun rise for what seemed like the millionth time in his life. His body felt hallow, like someone had carved out a piece of himself and thrown it carelessly away. Of course that somebody was him. He inflicted this upon himself, he had to deal with it. He sighed. It had been two weeks ago since he had shattered Nodoka's heart. "It's time." He thought. "Time to do what I need to do."

Yue had the most interesting class period today. Negi sensei had been staring at her at times throughout the class. Of course it didn't take long for her deductive mind to put two and two together. But the four that resulted was horrifying. Negi sensei had just broken up with Nodoka, and now he was beginning to take interest in her? "Oh God, this is bad." She wanted to yell for help and go crazy, but she controlled herself. "This is the worst blow Nodoka can receive now."

But at the end of class, not only she, but Nodoka had been held back to. They glanced questioningly at each other but did as their sensei bid. He finished dismissing the other students out, so he turned on them.

"Well I now this is a shock," Yue's heartbeat quickened and she felt as if she would faint at any moment. "But Nodoka, I didn't break up with you because I wanted to." Nodoka looked as confused as she was.

"Wh-What do you mean sensei?" Nokoka stuttered. Nodoka started to address Negi like this ever since they broke up.

"I mean that I was confused. I didn't know if I loved you or not, so I broke up with you. It hurt me to see you giving me love that I didn't return." The 15 year old sighed. "I know it's selfish of me to ask, but can we still be friends Nodoka?"

"Sure Negi sensei." She smiled. In her heart she was still in pain but not as much. If Negi wasn't sure she was the one that was fine. Even if he picked someone else, as long as they remained friends, she was happy.

"And none of that Negi sensei stuff. Since we are friends call me Negi kun." He smiled playfully. "So down to business." He pulled up a chair.

"What do you need from me sensei?" Yue was still lost. If his only objective was to apologize to Nodoka, why was she here?

"Listen up you two. I am taking a vacation on the dean's orders. I need to know what places would be nice to visit." Yue and Nodoka stared blankly.

"WHAT?" They both were confused beyond belief.

"Hah, let me tell you the story. It happened yesterday morning…"

(Flashback)

"Hey Takamichi! What's up?" His old friend had walked into the classroom of 3A quite early. It was still 7:00.

"Hey Negi. I heard you broke up with Nodoka?" Negi frowned a bit.

"Don't worry about it Takamichi, I'll settle things with Nodoka tomorrow."

"That's the problem Negi. The dean knows this has been affecting your performance."

"Hah, that's my problem."

"If it concerns your performance, it's the dean's problem too."

"God, if it's that much of a problem then I'll fix it okay?" Negi was starting to get irritated.

"Just calm down Negi. It's near summer break right?"

"Yes. And?" Negi had no idea where this Q and A was headed.

"The dean said that maybe you would like to preform a high class mission on his behalf?"

"If I am needed than you don't need to ask." Negi's mind was lost. "What does this have to do with my performance?" He thought.

"Go and find out Negi." Takamichi smiled.

"Don't go reading my mind like that! It's rude." Negi however mad and confused about his friend's actions, followed his orders. He nearly went out of the door when Takamichi spoke up.

"Brace yourself Negi." He smiled in a knowing way.

"Now you know that just pisses me off." He told his friend.

"I know."

The walk to the dean's office was short. Five minutes later he entered the familiar room and stood in front of the dean.

"Hello Dean Konoemon." He bowed.

"And hello to you to Negi sensei." The dean inclined his head slightly to match the greeting.

"So what are the details on the mission I have to go on?"

"Ah, mission he called it?" Negi saw the dean chuckle and felt his own confusion deepen. "Well it is simple. This month you and a partner of your choice will travel around the globe and visit any major cities or sights you wish. The whole trip will be funded by yours truly, and when you come back, I expect you to be full of spirit." Negi let this sink in.

"Wh-WHAT?" He stuttered out. "What kind of mission is this? I don't accept." It was a great offer, but he had no need for that.

"Oh you misunderstood me. You are REQUIRED to do this. If you don't go willingly, then I will have Yukohiro san be your partner." At this thought Negi gulped. No way in hell was he going with that love crazy woman.

"Fine. " He sighed in defeat.

"Good your plane leaves the day after tomorrow to the Bahamas. Yes I have picked your first stop, but you can pick the rest. You can stop at a maximum of 20 stops and stay at any for a maximum of 3 nights. Have fun!" Negi walked out of the door completely lost.

(End flashback)

"Oh that's what happened?" Yue was more confused at this explanation then before it. "So who are you taking?" Negi grinned at the two Library girls.

"It's a S-E-C-R-E-T." The girls laughed.

"All right well you should go to Athens, Greece and…"

The light conversation carried on for about an hour and by the time Negi had all locations and sight to see written down in a book he carried at his side. "All right time for Phase Two." The sun was beginning to set and he had invited a special person to the World Tree. He flew off and in a matter of minutes reached his destination he landed at the top and waited for what seemed like hours. Finally the person showed herself. Negi knew she was the only logical choice, not just a friend, but not as crazy as Ayaka. Not as easily angered as Asuna and not as hyper as Konoka. While she approached Negi admired her slender figure and sharp features. He thought about this long and hard yesterday, then the answer hit him. He dropped down from the tree to meet her. She smiled at his appearance.

"Hello Negi sensei. So what did you need to talk to me about?"

"Oh you might want to sit down. The story is a long one… Setsuna san."

Setsuna practically skipped all the way back to her dorm. She knew that a serious swordswoman as her shouldn't do such a frivolous thing, but she could not help it. She was elated. Negi sensei had picked her yes her to go on a month long vacation around the world. She was slightly put out that it wasn't a love confession, but she was too hopeful to suspect that anyway.

She had a crush on him ever since Kyoto, when he proved himself to be a capable 10 year old. Much time had passed since then, and last year was painful. She saw him together with Nodoka, and it hurt her so much that she even skipped out on school. After Kyoto, at the Mahora festival, he went on a date with her, well not really he didn't consider it to be that. Then he bravely saved the entire magical world a few years back. He had just finished his job of preventing the collapse of the Magical World two years back, so he could return to Mahora and continue teaching 3A.

She quickly skipped into her dorm and shut the door. She then readied her suitcase for a one month trip and went to bed. All the dreams about them being together were finally coming true. She closed her eyes and fell asleep, still smiling.

Negi smiled as he walked into the room. He knew Setsuna was the right choice. He had a crush on her after all. Asuna looked inquisitively at him.

"What's with the face?"

"Eh, nothing. I'm leaving on a mission tomorrow for a month." He walked into the bathroom and when he was done extracted his suitcase from the closet and placed it by the door.

"What? Why didn't you tell us earlier?"

"I'm tired Asuna." He fell on to his futon, dreaming about what could happen on the trip. However the twins barged in the door when he fell asleep.

"OH MY GOD! ASUNA SAN YOU HAVE TO HEAR THIS!" The twins shrieked.

"Calm down you'll wake Negi."

"But it's about Negi!" The twins explained overhearing the conversation at the world tree.

"What? Negi is going on a vacation with Setsuna? I'll kill this ero-maniac." She marched over to Negi's futon, but Konoka stopped her.

"I have an idea Asuna. Let's let Ayaka know and follow them!" Konoka grinned. Asuna thought about it for a while.

"Hm…" She said. Then grinned. "Let's do it."
