Chapter 4: Study Hard!

After falling from the height, Negi, Tomo and Milfuelle woke up shortly after they landed to find something unsettling… very unsettling… they were outside their bodies.

"Oh my god! We died! I can't believe it!" yelled Tomo.

"Calm down!" said Rukia, she was concouis, while Robin, Sailor Moon and Shampoo were unconscious.

"Why should we clam down… we're dead…" cried Milfuelle.

"No your not…" said Rukia, "Look at your chains of fate…"

"Chain of fate?" said Negi, he saw a chain coming out chest and leading to his body.

"Their still attached… you were merely knocked out your bodies…" said Rukia.

"At least we not dead…" said Tomo.

"Don't worry I'll help you back in…" said Rukia who began to help the three back into their bodies.

"It was strange…" said Rukia, "Normally a fall like would kill someone but it was as if someone made sure none of you died…"

"I wonder…" said Negi.

That's when the other began to wake up…

"What happened?" said Sailor Moon.

"If memories serve you failed the test…" said Robin.

"Where are we?" said Shampoo.

Robin realized where they were… "I think we're in the legendary illusionary reading room… it is said that those who come here never return…" said Robin.

Everyone gasped but then Sailor Moon realized and said "Wait if everyone died then who there are stories?"

"Their ghosts of course…" said Robin with a smirk.

"Oh right… that makes sense…" said Tomo with a sweat drop.

"Hey Negi!" said Milfuelle, "Is there a way for you to use magic?"

"He's magic less remember…" said Tomo.

"Oh right…" said Milfuelle.

"Okay we need to figure out a way out…" said Tomo, "Then…"

"We're going to fail…" sighed the others.

"You know I blame Tomo…" said Sailor Moon.

"What?" said Tomo.

"It's true you have this infectious energy that makes anyone follow you…" said Rukia.

"Shampoo agree…" said Shampoo.

"But what about me?" said Milfuelle who began to cry.

"It's not your fault… you were just following Tomo…" said Sailor Moon.

"We should look around and see if there a place where we can get out…" said Robin.

They began to look around and saw there wasn't any place to climb…

"Oh man…" said Tomo.

"Miss Kuchiki, do you think you can though the walls…" said Robin.

"No, if I knew how deep underground I was but this is different." said Rukia.

"Robin do you think you can make those cool wings and fly us out of here?" said Sailor Moon.

"I can only hold it for 5 seconds, I'm sorry." said Robin.

"I have an idea!" said Negi, "Why don't we study until I get my magic back!"

"That's a great idea!" said Sailor Moon who detransformed back into Usagi.

"Or a rescue party comes looking for us." said Rukia.

That's when one of the seals came off Negi's arm.

"What happened?" said Usagi.

"One of the seals came off… they came off when the sun rises." said Negi.

"The sun rose?" yelled every one else.

Meanwhile in class...

"What do you mean if we fail Negi will get fired if we come in last?" said Ayeka.

"Negi wanted to keep it a secret from you so you wouldn't worry…" said Momoko A.

"Why didn't you tell us earlier!" yelled Ayeka.

"Sorry!" said Ino.

"We all need to study harder!" said Ayeka.

"Why is Ayeka taking Negi's defense?" said Nami.

"Maybe it has something to do with the fact that Ryoko hates Negi." replied Vivi.

"Everyone needs to get their grades up higher and I'm talking to you demon women!" yelled Ayeka.

"Bite me Princess…" said Ryoko.

"We all need to study hard…" said Ayeka.

That's when Beauty, Yomiko and Konoka entered the room.

"The Baka Rangers are missing!" they said.

"What do you mean?" asked Ayeka.

They began to tell what happened... about the rumor, about how Robin lead them and Negi to the Island as well as the fact that Negi was temporally powerless (Though this was done though whispers so Konoka would hear)… this caused almost the whole class to gasp.

"We have to rescue them right now!" said Ayeka.

"But how are we going to do that?" said Tia.

"We need to figure out who is best to rescue them… I have it… Ryoko…" said Ayeka.

"No way…" said Ryoko.

"Remember, Negi is not the only who's missing…" said Megumi, "So are Tomo, Rukia, Robin, Milfuelle, Shampoo and Usagi"

"Fine but I'm only don't it for Rukia and Shampoo…" said Ryoko.

"Sango! I heard rumors of Yokai we might need your expertise!" said Ayeka.

"Sure, okay…" said Sango.

"We need someone from Team Magical Girl" said Ayeka.

"I'll go." volunteered Ichigo.

"And Hinata you might prove useful in finding them…" said Ayeka.

"O-okay…" said Hinata.

"I'll go too..." said Yomiko.

"You will leave tonight… this way you can study for the tests and prepare…" said Ayeka.

All 5 members of the rescue team sweatdroped.

Sometime later underground, Negi was teaching small class to help them study, Robin even joined in.

That night the 5 rescue team members joined up, Ichigo was Mew Ichigo, while Sango was in her demon hunter garb, joined by her pet/ partner Kirara, a two tailed demon cat that be either a giant flaming monster cat or a cute little two tailed kitty cat, right now Kirara was the size of a regular house cat since she didn't need to be big, while the others just wore their uniforms.

"I hope their okay…" said Sango.

"Don't worry Rukia's with them." Said Ryoko, "If one of them died they probably would have gone to the Soul Society peacefully."

The other 4 were shocked at what they heard.

"I just hope they're not dead." said Yomiko.

"Me neither" said Sango.

Beauty and Konoka were once again the ground communications.

"Be careful you guys…" said Beauty.

"Don't worry we will rescue the others!" said Mew Ichigo.

"That's right… they're our friends and class mates" said Hinata.

"Let's go" said Yomiko.

And so they followed the path the Baka Rangers took before them.

Meanwhile down below, the Negi was helping the Baka Rangers study, in a classroom, meaning that they all managed to find a chalkboard and set up boxes to act like desks. Even Robin joined in but didn't answer unless none of the others knew the answer right now they were studying math.

"Does anyone know the answer?" said Negi, Milfuelle razed her hand, "Yes Milfuelle?"

"Is it 35?" said Milfuelle.

"That's right!" said Negi.

Sometime later when they decided to take a break, Negi, Robin and Shampoo were taking a walk.

"This place is amazing… I can't believe this place is under ground." said Negi.

"It is… there are so many books… including the ones that would help us with our studies. There's even a fully stocked kitchen…" said Robin.

"It strange." said Shampoo, "What you think."

"I have a theory that someone knew were coming down here." said Robin, "After all we don't know where the rumor came from."

"Rumor?" said Negi.

"There rumor that really bad students go back to grade school." said Shampoo.

"What?" said Negi with a sweat drop.

"Shampoo blame Tomo for making Shampoo go." said Shampoo.

"Let us not forget that famous Amazon pride." Said Robin, "Which I think why Miss Kuchiki also joined in, after all her pride as a Soul must be damaged with posing as a Jr. High school girl."

"Wait… rumor?" said Negi.

"Shampoo think we should all talk about it." said Shampoo.

Meanwhile in the chamber where the book was supposed to be the rescue team finally made it, they were look at the pit that the twister game once was.

"You think they fell down there?" said Mew Ichigo.

"It's possible…" said Ryoko.

"We have to go down there!" said Sango.

"Right!" said Mew Ichigo, Yomiko and Hinata.

"Kirara!" said Sango.

Kirara was engulfed in fire and she grew within the fire, when it cleared stood a much bigger giant cat, Sango and Mew Ichigo climbed on, Yomiko took out thousands of pieces of paper… the paper began to form into a giant paper airplane, both Yomiko and Hinata climbed in.

"Ryoko, little help?" said Yomiko.

"Fine…" muttered the alien.

She made a clone of her self, both lifted the paper airplane.

"Okay let's go!" said Sango.

Ryoko threw the paper airplane down into the pit then, Kirara followed with Ryoko flying down by herself after getting rid of the clone.

Meanwhile in the reading/study room.

"So the reason why you were worried was because of a rumor that might not be true…" said Negi with a sweat drop.

All 5 Baka Rangers laughed nervously.

"Yeah…" said Tomo.

Negi sighed… "And I thought you were helping me…"

"What do you mean?" asked Usagi.

"Well… I minds as well come clean…" said Negi.

Negi told them about the final challenge… that he'll be fired if they come in last, which shocked everyone.

"So that was the problem you mentioned in class…" said Milfuelle.

"Yes… I'm in big trouble." said Negi who noticed that there was only one seal left, along with everyone else.

"Just one more day…" said Usagi.

"I wonder." said Robin.

"What do you mean?" asked Tomo.

"It's nothing." said Robin.

That's when there was a loud boom and everyone turned around and saw the stone stature.

"It's back!" yelled Milfuelle.

"I can handle this!" said Negi.

"No don't you still don't have your magic." said Robin.

"We handle it…" said Shampoo.

"Right!" said Usagi, "Moon Crystal Power! Make Up!"

With that Usagi transformed into Sailor Moon. Sailor Moon, Rukia, Robin and Shampoo were ready to fight the stone stature… how the stature at different ideas, it turned it's attention to the three not fighting… and grabbed Tomo.

"Tomo!" yelled Milfuelle.

"Man! Why couldn't Kagome or Akane be here! Then I wouldn't be the one that was kidnapped!" yelled Tomo.

There was a silence.

"That's less funny then you think." said Rukia.

That's a giant boomerang hit the stone stature in the face, everyone turned around and saw the rescue team.

"Looks like we came at a good time." said Sango.

"Wow… too bad for you Tomo that Kagome or Akane aren't here…" said Ryoko.

"I already said that!" yelled Tomo, "Just save me!"

"Hey what's that on it's neck?" said Milfuelle.

Everyone saw on it's neck was the book they were looking for.

"It's the book!" said Sailor Moon.

"It must have fallen with us" said Rukia.

"Let's go save Tomo and get that book!" said Sailor Moon.

And with that the fight to get the book began… oh… and to rescue Tomo too… she's important too.

Mini-Story: Student Number 30: Orhime Inoue

Negi was walking looking for somewhere to eat outside since in was a wonderful day, that's when he heard "Negi-Sensei! Sit with us!"

He saw Orhime, Rukia, Sango and Kagome sitting together so he walked over to them.

"Hello girls are you eating for lunch?" said Negi.

"Oh I have a whole loaf of bread and red bean paste!" said Orhime.

"What?" said Negi with a sweat drop.

"This way I could make my own red bean buns!" said Orhime.

"Are all Japanese Girls eat that way…" said Negi.

"No just Orhime… she has a very weird taste in food…" said Rukia.

"I see…" said Negi with a sweat drop.
