Well ... What can I say?
This is my first fanfiction, I hope to have you satisfied for now, with this little chapter.
I can imagine it's a bit short, but it should only give the incipit to the whole story.
I checked my spelling countless times, and I hope that it is correct (unfortunately English is not my native language), so I apologize in advance for any lack in the grammar.

That said ... well, I sincerely hope in comments (although for now I know that is a bit premature), and gladly accept constructive criticism.

finally ... I hope to be able to write to the PC the next chapters soon, maybe in a few days, but it all depends on the free time XD

at the next one!


Prologue – "Bye Bye Mahora!"

Chao peaceful smiled at her little teacher "Thank you, little Negi!".
The battle for The World Tree had just ended. The faces of the two main contenders was irradiated by the white light emitted by the enormous plant.
As she had expected since he had sensed his determination, she had lost. Her project, carefully planned for two long, and painfully happy years had just gone up in smoke.

But she was not too disappointed. Its aim had reached equally, even if unexpectedly. She told him.
That little boy of ten years, with reddish hair and look determined to make her stay, she had surprised.

He looked at her dejected "Wait..." he began.

"No. It makes no more sense to stay in this time, by now... But do not worry: we'll meet again!" the girl said turning on Cassiopeia, a large pocket watch completely gilded, with a dial definitely singular: in fact it had engraved above the alchemical symbols of the planets inside the circle of the constellations as well as various other arcane symbols.
A strong light began to leak from the circle of menhirs below them, while a large magic circle appeared over their heads.

Crick.

Chao sensed this slight sound coming from the hand that held the device. She threw a glance over it, immediately followed by the appearance of a large drop of sweat on her forehead.

In the machinery was opening a small crack, from which now flowed even a low whistle.
The magic circle started to sway as if it was the reflection of the moon on the water, and then stabilized a few moments later with a giant roar, colored of a bright red.
The sound was followed by a shock wave strong enough to hurl down all the attendees, including Negi and the Chinese girl, causing them to fall from their pedestals.
The ground began to shake, sparking panic among those present.

-Damn! I can't turn it off! But what the hell is going on?- Chao was thinking frantically, committed to tinker with Cassiopeia, whose crack continued to widen in the midst of all that chaos.

"Guys ...? W-why are you g-glowing?" she asked timidly after having given a quick look around in search of Hakase.

"Uh?" Negi looked around, only to lay eyes on his hands.
It was true, he and Setsuna, Chisame, Chachamaru, Kotaro that the same Chao had begun to glow with an eerie crimson light, of increasing intensity.

"Er ... Chao ... What's going on? " hazarded Hakase, more frightened than curious about those events" And why are you glowing too? ".

"Ah ... I ... I have no idea ... "started to respond with a nervous smile the genius of Mahora, returning to observe the time machine.
Something similar to a sharp snap resounded in the air, after which Chao felt like the feeling of being raised.

Effectively she was rising from the ground, and looking around she noticed that even the other 'enlightened' were suffering the same fate: a desperate Setsuna was trying to cling to his childhood friend-protected, who seemed quite amused by the scene; Chachamaru was watching herself with curious expression; Chisame was fidgeting like crazy, ranting things about the impossibility of what was happening, while Negi, who seemed more scared than anything else, was looking around with lost air.

Their companions remained on the ground looked on quizzically, with no idea how to react.

"Uh, guys ... this ... it should not do, ne! "Chao murmured with a drizzle of voice.

As they arrived at about ten meters above the ground, they stopped. Then, with a blinding flash from the magic circle, they disappeared.

"B-but, where are they?" Wondered Asuna after a few moments, as if waking from a daydream "That is ... Chao should not have been, or at least only does she have to disappear?".

"Even my Secchan is gone ... phew! Where will she go?" Konoka said annoyed, soon after.

Shaking her head, Asuna turned to Hakase, still staring at the spot where were
suspended shortly before her classmates and their teacher.

"Listen ... I do not understand anything of this stuff, but can you tell me where's the brat along with our classmates?"

"Er ... no. "simply replied the girl softly, not looking away.

Meanwhile, even the teachers had arrived, attracted by the roar and light.
Seeing the girls in the chaos, they tried to calm them and find the motive of that turmoil.
Takamichi, first to arrive since it was nearby, listened concentrated all the reports of the girls, approaching then to Akase.

"Sorry Hakase, but the one described by you and your classmates seem quite complex and ancient a form of teleportation. If so, you would not have a way to track them down?"

Pulling out her cell phone the inventor tried to dial the number of her friend disappeared.

"I do not know professor ... Chao's cell phone is unreachable ..." she broke off suddenly to pull a slap on her forehead "...But of course! Chachamaru! She has a device for satellite tracking!".

Told this she began to open various holographic screens in front of her, passing quickly data and information.

"That's it! You was right, Professor! I found her! She is located ..." she continued looking at the coordinates "She is ... hmm ... that's weird." she frowned "There must be a mistake... The data indicate that she is... in Istanbul!"
