A/N:I'm so psyched to write up another chapter of Cold Alibaba/Homura. I'm gonna design an outfit for him to wear. Probably a Dark Djinn Equip thing that will call back to some Dark Homura. Yeah, but he has his own sets of issues. And yes, Masaomi was deliberate, it's a call to how similar Masaomi from DRRR is to Alibaba. And besides, in my other story, Alibaba is a time traveler, so why not here?

Heeeheheheehe. Not all secrets will be revealed just yet, after all this is a different alternate take on two of my favorite shows, Madoka Magica and Magi itself!

So far:

Homura-Alibaba/Masaomi

Madoka-Aladdin

Hitomi-Dunya

Kyousuke=Sinbad

Sayaka=Kougyoku

Kyubey=Judar

More shall be seen as time goes on, heeeeeheheheheheheeh.


Chapter 2 The blessing of innocence, and what is a puer magi?

From high above the skyscrapers of Magnostadt, an odd creature stood, munching a peach voraciously, its long black ears dangling in the sunlight. Oddly enough, the ordinary people did not seem to see or sense the odd creature as he hung upside down, in a human form. He had the form of a cat at times, it was just perfect for luring in vulnerable humans, male or female, it did not matter.

Any human was eligible to become a dungeon fighter and die as a supposed Magi. Judar, as a proud member of his race, just found the entire thing a pointless waste of time.

"That old witch will destroy the entire universe, anyhow. Why do the others waste their time enslaving humans when they're gonna die, anyway?" He said, his black braid swaying back and forth.

What he wasn't expecting was for someone to suddenly stomp on his braid.

The Magi flew in the air, shrieking curses. "Put me down! I!"

He paused upon seeing the blade aimed straight at his throat.

A blond-haired male stood, holding him in his animal form, glaring at him coldly.

"Who the hell are you?" He said, clawing at the intruder, but in this form, the Magi was defenseless against such an assailant.

"...Just a messenger. You plan on making more 'contracts' with potential 'king-bearers,' do you not? Answer the question, or else I shall burn you alive." Flames surrounded the blond youth.

Damn, what the hell was with this brat? There was something decidedly wrong with him.

"Yes, of course! What's wrong with that?"

"I thought so. The same answer. Well, then, Judar..." The male smirked, "Goodbye."

A giant ball of fire incinerated the Magi in one swoop.

There was nothing but a pile of ashes.

Alibaba sheathed his sword and looked around. "Shit, he's still not dead. Little nuisance."

Far below, a terrified Judar scurried away for his life.

"Who the hell was that? He didn't look like any of the potential magis I've contracted with yet! He seems familiar, yet not!" Judar cursed to himself, to anyone else he looked like an innocent looking black cat with red eyes.

(Think Kirarara from Inuyasha or something)

His ears twitched. "Ah, what's this? One, no, not just one, but two potential vessels! Now, I just need to pretend to be in distress!"

"Where's Saluja-san at?" Dunya asked, pointing at the empty spot the blond had occupied before lunch. Now it was empty.

"...He has a strange air about him," Kougyoku muttered, "Perhaps you and he are lovers, forever doomed to meet. Just like me and Sinbad-sama!" She cried.

"I don't think so, Kougyoku-chan," Aladdin said, grabbing at her chest, but she instinctively smacked his hands away deftly.

"Hey, Aladdin-chan, do you mind if we stop by somewhere really quick on the way home?" Kougyoku asked.

"Oh, do you mean...?" Aladdin asked, looking at a blushing Kougyoku, who sighed deeply.

"It's Sinbad-sama's birthday soon! I have to help him feel better about being a king to Sindria!" She sighed.

Aladdin shook his head and started to say something, but Dunya held him back.

"I think it's romantic seeing a young girl so in love with her potential man." She said. "Kougyoku-san, you'd be an ideal princess!"

"Princess? Hell no, I'm a warrior!" She cried, bearing an imaginary sword and wielding it at Dunya, who laughed.

"Well, I've got to head home. My parents work me to death." She said, bowing to both of them as she left.

"Dunya-chan needs to lead an active social life!" Kougyoku cried, "Being stuck with stuffy parents all day in a rich house isn't going to help her in the long run!"

"You're right," Aladdin mumbled as they went into the store.

While he was there, he heard a strange noise, like someone crying for help in his mind.

'Aladdin! Oi, chibi Aladdin, help me!'

Aladdin turned his head. "Kougyoku-chan, do you hear that voice?"

Kougyoku tilted her head, pink irises full of confusion. "Aladdin-chan, what are you talking about?"

But the blue-haired boy had already charged after the mysterious voice.

"ALADDIN-CHAN! Solomon-san and Sheba-san are gonna kill me." The pinkette trembled, remembering how terrifying Sheba could be if provoked. Quickly, she hurried after the blue-haired boy.


Aladdin hurried down the hall. He could hear the person screaming in help.

He found a black, furry creature lying there, weak and desperate.

"Are you okay?" He asked, holding the creature in his hands.

"Aladdin..." The other muttered, weakly.

"Get away from him!" A sharp voice ordered.

Aladdin barely had time to dodge as a sudden wave of black flames came toward the creature and him.

"What? Stop hurting the innocent creature-"

He paused, upon seeing the figure standing there, wielding a huge black sword, and dressed in an odd-looking white outfit. "A-Alibaba-kun? What kind of cosplay is that-"

"Let go of him. You play dirty as always, Judar! One such as him cannot be trusted. I will not harm you, Aladdin." He mumbled, stepping toward the other.

"You can't hurt innocent animals!"

"Innocent?" The other cried, only to be sprayed by a sudden jet of water.

"Aladdin-chan!"

Alibaba blinked, shaking himself, frowning in distaste at the sight of water, something he hated. "...Kougyoku?" He mumbled.

The red-head glared at Alibaba. "What are you doing, wearing that ridiculous get-up and hurting an animal? A really cute animal!"

She hugged the injured Judar to her chest, causing the animal to blush beet-red as his ears flew up in the air.

Frowning, Alibaba slashed at the odd-looking beasts surrounding him. "Shit, this isn't what needs to happen now!"

"Aladdin-chan, is it just me or are we lost?" Kougyoku asked, frowning at the odd creatures lining their way. They'd been here one second and now they were lost.

"I don't remember seeing such weird-looking plants," Aladdin complained. Suddenly vines surrounded them.

"Aladdin-chan!" Kougyoku whimpered, even as Judar in her arms rolled his eyes.

"Need help there, you two?"

Suddenly, a flash of purple shot through the air as the vines were sliced in two.

"Let the fog destroy the vines!" He called.

It was a kid around their age, with long, stringy brown hair and golden eyes. He wore an odd outfit and held a strange sword.

"He looks like Alibaba-kun," Aladdin remarked.

"Am I dreaming?" Kougyoku muttered, watching in fascination as the man destroyed the monsters with ease with his sword.

He smiled. "Ah, I see you got Judar there, and he's in a cute girl's lap, even better!"

Kougyoku flushed as the 'animal' jumped off her, and in a flash of light, was a human male around their age.

"Your boobs were very nice, rabbit!" He called.

Kougyoku kicked Judar and sent him flying. "You perverted animal!" She cried.

"Judar, unless the ladies want that, it's a no," Kassim said. "The name's Kassim. I go to the same school as you guys, starting tomorrow. I'm a Magi. This here is Judar. He selects special people to gain powers. So, Judar...the reason you're so interested in these two is...?"

"That's it. You, chibi brat, and you, rabbit girl. You're perfect candidates. Make a contract with me and you can become Magis."

"Magis...?" Kougyoku asked, tilting her head. "That sounds so cool!"

"There's nothing cool about it." A new icy voice said.

Aladdin turned to see Alibaba standing there, glaring at all of them.

"It's been a long time, Kassim." Alibaba said.

"Do I know you?" Kassim asked, studying the blond up and down.

"No, you don't know me. I suggest not making more vessels. After all, can't have dungeons depleting their materials, right?" He said coldly.

Kassim narrowed his eyes. "So, what you're saying is...that you don't want these two becoming magis or Kings' Vessels?"

"That's right," Alibaba said coldly, "Aladdin, did you remember what I told you earlier?"

"Alibaba-kun, you could try to be nicer..." Aladdin whined. "Kassim-san saved me."

"I..." He mumbled, but stopped, as Kassim appeared near him.

"That's fire-based magic you use there, isn't it? Along with...huh, aren't you interesting? Your rukh...is unusual." Kassim said, staring at the other's glowing golden gem, which was a little dark in color.

"I am just warning you, Kassim, that one day, you just might perish against the Dark Djinns and the Dungeons." Alibaba said coldly.

"Look, I'll be friendly. Here's a gift," Kassim said, offering a cigarette.

"No thanks, I don't care for smoking. The friend I knew who did it died." Alibaba said softly as he turned his back on them and prepared to leave.

"Wait! Saluja-san!" Kougyoku cried. "Can I talk to you...?"

But he was already gone.

"Well, do you find him attractive...what are your names?" Kassim asked.

"I'm Aladdin and this is Kougyoku Ren! That guy there was Alibaba-kun! He's a cold but friendly guy!" Aladdin said.

"Alibaba, hmm? He seems like bad news. I'd stay away from him." Kassim said.

"He's an obstacle," Judar said, "He could be workin' for the Dark Djinns."


Alibaba frowned, "Kougyoku Ren will meet her downfall soon enough. The one I once loved and tried to save...why can I not save her?" He hissed, punching the wall.

"...Alibaba-san, do not fret." A new voice said. Alibaba turned in time to see a red-headed girl there, watching him.

"Morgiana...I'm glad you're with me." He mumbled. "We've got to save Aladdin, no matter what."

"I'll fight by you until the end," Morgiana muttered, "You know that."

His fingers tangled in her hair as they kissed.

"Yes, I know that," He said. "What's worse is...Kassim was there."

"Kassim..." Morgiana mumbled, "Your first friend."

His voice shook. "I don't want Kassim, Kougyoku, Aladdin...I don't want any of them to die." He mumbled. "Not this time, not this world!"

Morgiana shushed him. "It's all right. I will never leave you. I will make sure that Aladdin survives." She said.
