A/N: Negima: Magister Negi Magi is not mine. I do not own this story. Only the Original Chars are mine. Negima is the work of the great and perverted Ken Akamatsu.

This story will start between Periods 57 and 60. So I guess that makes it a AU.

"Septendecim spiritus glaciales, coeutes inimicum concidant. SAGITTA MAGICA, SERIES GLACIALIS!" He chanted, sending off his arrows towards his enemies.

"Damn," he thought "there are just too many! I need to escape!" His tired eyes looked around the battle field and fell upon a females still form, his eyes welled up with tears. "Goodbye my love. I am so sorry I got you mixed up in all of this."

"Your not going anywhere human! We were summoned to fight and kill! And we are not going until we finish this!" The demon yelled as he lunged for the young man.

Another demon behind him cackled. "Yeah! We already dispensed with your girlie, just give it up so you can join her."

The man thought about this for a second. But he knew once he got to heaven, that she would kill him again for giving up.

At that moment, his eyes flashed red. "Just enough strength for this and an escape."

He aimed his hand at the approaching demons. "Jovis Tempetas Fulguruens!" The storm blast shot forth from his hand, annihilating the last two demons.

"Finally." he thought. He quickly regained his senses and gazed upon his partner, love of his life, and good friend Alexia. It was his fault that she was dead, his fault that this flame of innocence died early, and he knew it.

"Rest well my love, for I will see you again one day. I will try to make it far into the future." He was about to pick up her body when the ground around him began to shake.

"What!" was all he had time to say before multiple magical circles appeared on the ground. More demons were being summoned to this realm.

"Damn!" He grab Alexia's body, reached for his staff and took off. Spells were being fired at him and as he flew away, one clipped him in his shoulder, making him drop Alexia's body.

"No!" He screamed as she plummeted towards earth. He shot downwards after it, until a voice spoke in his head.

"Don't do it love!" It screamed. "Please just save yourself! Don't worry about my body, I would be so upset if you died trying to save it!" It cried.

"Alexia..." He said softly as tears formed in his eyes. He nodded his head and flew away.

It was many hours later that found the young man tired, bleeding, broken and sleeping on his flying staff.

His body began to tilt to the side and his staff started to fly down towards earth at a incredible speed. It hit the ground with a sickening thud.

Hours later, he regained some consciousness, enough to make out that he hurt, a lot. He attempted to pick himself up, but just fell back down again.

"Where am I?" He looked around and saw nothing but trees. "A forest?" He attempted to get up again, with minor success leaning heavily on his staff. He heard bells off in the distance.

"Guess I'm heading that way..." He muttered to himself as he began to limp off towards the sound.

A few hours later found Negi practicing his martial arts in world tree plaza.

"Hiya!" He yelled as he went through his paces. "An now for.." But before he could finish, he was interrupted by a voice from behind.

"Negi-kuuun!" Makie shouted as she approached her sensei.

"Ahh, Makie-san! Good morning. Out training for gymnastics again?"

"Yep! I need to get my training done before the city wide tournament this summer!" She responded cheerfully.

"Well I know you will do excellent Makie-san..." he said trailing off as something caught his eye.

Makie looked at him, wondering what was wrong. She followed his line of sight an noticed a person staggering towards the plaza. They watched the man as he leaned heavily on what looked like a branch of a tree. He was limping towards them, when he suddenly pitched forward and fell to the ground.

Negi jumped from where he was training and ran towards him, Makie following close behind. When they got to him, they looked at him in horror. He had several gashes on his back, and a pool of red liquid was starting to form around him.

"Negi-bozu! Where are you!" Negi heard Asuna shout from a distance behind him.

"Asuna-san! Come over here quickly and bring everyone with you! We have an medical emergency!"

Asuna, Ku Fei, Setsuna and Konoka all ran to Negi's side, wondering what happened to him, only to be surprised by the young man bleeding to death.

"Baka!" Asuna shouted and hit Negi upside his head. "What did you do!"

"I didn't do anything! Makie-san and I saw him collapse just before you got here!"

"Negi-kun," Konoka said as she hung up her cell phone. "Grandpa wants us to bring him to the infirmary. Makie-san? Can you go get Ako-san and meet us there?"

Makie nodded and ran off back towards her dorm to wake her friend. When she was out of sight, Chamo spoke from Negi's shoulder.

"Do you feel that big bro? That huge power coming from him?"

"Yes I do. He is no ordinary traveler, but lets worry about that later, he is dying by the second." Asuna, Setsuna and Ku Fei picked up the travelers body, while Negi picked up his staff.

"Yew..." he said under his breath. He could feel a power radiating off of it. "Whoever he is, I hope he is a friend."
