DISCLAIMER: NEITHER KARAI NATSUME NOR I OWN NEGIMA! IT IS PROPERTY OF KEN AKAMATSU!

Naea's A/N: Haha, this is going great! Guess I should have listened to Karai and posted these months ago… oh well!

Karai's A/N: Okay, so Naea's gone on a trip out of state for a week, so the rest of this chapter was written by me. (He started it, I finished it.) That's why the writing style changes at one point. So, the next few chapters will also be written by me while he's gone.

Note from Karai to Naea: Listen. I'm changing a couple of things in this chapter, alright? They're minor changes really, and should still fit with what we originally wrote.

About 25 minutes later, Negi and Naea arrived at his room. Negi looked over and smiled. "We're here Naea-kun."

Naea started shaking, he gulped. "Um, m-maybe I should apologize to her…"

Negi opened the door and looked around the corner. "I'm home."

A girl with long brown hair ran up. She was holding a bowl of what looked like cake batter. Smiling big she looked over to me. "Oh there you are Negi-kun. Hm? This must be the boy Asuna was talking about. You're the perv!"

Naea fell in amazement. Tears were falling. "But I didn't do anything!"

Negi began to look around the room. "Konoka-san, where's Asuna-san?"

Konoka went over to the small kitchen area and put the batter in a large pan. Putting the pan in the oven she said, "She seemed pretty upset when she got here so she took her stuff and has been in the baths the whole time."

"I see."

Naea stood up and scratched his head. One day and he already managed to screw up. "Then it's my fault. Her skirt fell off and I looked."

Negi started waving his eyes wildly. "No no no! Asuna-san was having a bad day anyway. Why don't we go and see if she's still there."

Naea walked out the door. "Sure. Oh yeah!" He started to dig through his pockets and managed to find the paper Kaede handed him. "I'm supposed to bring this to Kaede-san's room."

Konoka walked over and looked out the door. She pointed down the hallway. "If you just go down there and take that left her room will be the third door on the right."

Naea bowed and quickly ran off. "Thanks, I'll be right back Negi!"

"Take your time Naea-kun!" Negi went over to his desk and looked at a big stack of papers. "I should probably get started on these."

Konoka began washing all the cooking utensils she had finished using, looking over to Negi she motioned to his staff over to the coffee table. "Oh yeah Negi-kun, you got another letter."

He looked over to the table and read the address. "It's from my Onee-chan."

"Nekane?" She stopped washing the dishes. "You think it's about that stuff?"

He nodded. "It's possible…"

In the hall Naea ran over to the room and put the letter in the dorms mailbox. He ran back to the other room. "Alright Negi-kun, let's get going."

Negi looked up from the letter he was reading. "Sure. Let's go." Putting the letter down they rushed over to the baths.

However, over at Eva's house something different was happening. Evangeline handed a rather large book to Karai. She pointed to the middle of page 1047. "Say that spell."

Karai looked at the book, her face said it all. She had no clue why Eva was telling her to do this. "Evangeline," she said, "Why am I doing this?"

Eva was getting ticked, she really doesn't like to explain things, but here there wasn't really a choice here. Eva went over to her table and started drinking the tea that Chachamaru made. "You're not a normal girl Karai."

"You don't think I know that? Everyone at my school calls me weird and honestly I agree. Being normal is so boring."

Eva put her hand up to stop her. "That's not what I meant girl." She smiled. "What I meant… is that you have magic in you."

"What? How is that even possible?"

"I don't know… just read that spell. Let's see if it's true."

Karai sighed and picked up the book. "Fine. This one right?"

"Yes just say it. That's about all it should take."

Karai took in a deep breath, looking at the page one more time she said the spell with vigor. "Practi Bigi Naru Ardescat!" A flame popped out from her hand and caused the book to catch on fire.

Caught by surprise due to the book bursting into flames, Karai instantly dropped it on the floor.

" IDIOT! ARE YOU TRYING TO BURN DOWN THE HOUSE?," Evangeline yelled as she stomped the flames out. She stared at the charred area on the floor a moment afterward thinking to herself, I won't kill her… I won't kill her…

" What… in the world did I just do?," Karai asked, also staring at the burned area on the floor. The fact was, she knew exactly what she'd just done. She just couldn't believe that she did it.

" You just cast a basic spell for low level wizards," Evangeline said. " Which means that you can indeed use magic. However… I sense that you can do more than that. You just don't realize it yet."

" So… this means… I'm a wizard?," Karai asked. She liked the thought of using magic. In fact, she practically loved that thought. In her own world, it wasn't even supposed to exist. But here, in this world of make believe turned real, she was probably able to. That lone made her very excited.

" Yes. This would mean you are a wizard," Evangeline confirmed. " And since I believe you're probably more capable than most novices, tonight I want you to think of an activation key. We'll perform the setting ritual for it in the morning." She then looked off in another direction. " While you were out earlier, I had Chachamaru get a room ready for you. You can stay there. Just remember to think up an activation key before you fall asleep."

" Wait," Karai said. " I don't even…"

" I don't want to hear an excuses as to why you can't think of one.," Evangeline said. " An activation key is needed for you to learn advanced spells in this world. And the only way you're going to be able to survive is by using such spells." She then started walking off, talking as she went. " I'm going to read now. You'd better have something thought up by morning…"

" Um… o-kay?," Karai said, staring after Evangeline as she left the room. Karai knew very well what a magical activation key was. It was basically the key to a wizard's innermost magical abilities. And by saying these certain words, the wizard could unlock their fullest magical potential. Usually, these words meant something more to the magic user than they would anyone else.

" An activation key, huh?," Karai asked herself. " This… could probably take a while." She had no clue what words she could use for her activation key, and figured it would probably take her a long time to think of some.

Outside the dorm baths, Naea stood nervously next to Negi, wondering if this was such a good idea after all. " You know Negi… this might not be such a good idea. I mean, Asuna's already mad at me for the skirt thing, and what if she's in there…. And… she… she's…"

At that moment, Asuna walked out of the bathing area, and stared at Naea. " Oh, so it's you! WHAT ARE YOU DOING? PEEPING IN ON PEOPLE IN THE BATH?"

Naea instantly took a defensive position, making sure to guard his head well. " THAT'S NOT IT AT ALL! LET ME EXPLAIN! PLEASE DON'T KILL ME!"

" You had BOTH better explain. NOW!," Asuna said, irritation and anger seeping into her voice.

Naea thought about just how to explain this. But, there was really no other way than just to right out tell the truth about it. " Well, you see Asuna-san. I'm not from this world at all. Or the magic world! Somehow I ended up here in your world and I wasn't expecting something like that at all!" He bowed. " Please… forgive me!"

Normally when apologizing to someone, Naea wouldn't do a thing like that. But, for some reason, it just seemed normal., and polite to do so.

Asuna thought about that. With all the other strangeness she'd been through, that wasn't too hard to believe. " Fine. I'll let you off the hook for now." Then she stepped forward and grabbed Naea by the collar of his shirt. " But if I EVER find you peeping I swear I'll make sure you never see the light of day again!"

" Y-yes!," Naea stammered. " I'm very sorry Asuna-san!"

Negi then bowed as well. " I'm also very sorry Asuna-san. It was my allergies again."

Asuna sighed. " You just don't learn, do you Negi? I've already forgiven you. I'll admit that I was fumed about it for a while, but I was actually thinking about something else for the rest of the day."

" Really?," Negi asked, instantly curious. " And what would that be?"

Asuna's voice got a little softer as she spoke again. " Just… some things from my past…"

" Your past?," Naea asked. " Oh yeah! You're some kinda princess, aren't you?"

" THAT'S IT!," Asuna yelled as she pulled up her sleeves. " YOU'VE BEEN STALKING ME, HAVEN'T YOU! I KNEW YOU WERE A PERV!"

" WAIT!," Naea yelled, taking a step back as he held his hands above his face to avoid getting hit. IN MY WORLD THEY MADE A MANGA AND ANIME ABOUT THIS WORLD! WHERE I'M FROM NONE OF THIS IS EVEN POSSIBLE!"

When he saw the look of disbelief in her eyes, Negi came to Naea's aid. " He's telling the truth Asuna-san. He's really not from this world. He's… different."

" Different huh?," Asuna asked, still eyeing Naea suspiciously. " Fine then. I'll chose to buy that story for now." After all, not like it's any weirder than half the stuff that happens around this place. " But since I barely know you, I refuse to say anymore in front of you right now! "By the way…what's your name?"

Naea blinked and pointed to himself, almost startled that she'd asked for his name, instead of sending him flying off into the air again with her fan. Which he'd expected her to have done by now. " My… name?"

Asuna nodded. " Yes. Your name. That thing you call yourself."

" Well," Naea said, smiling. " My name's Naea. Naea Urahara."

" Naea Urahara, huh?," Asuna said, thinking about the name for a second. " That name's pretty strange. Well. I'm sure that you already know I'm Asuna Kagurazaka."

Naea nodded. And then, they heard an extremely loud noise outside. Asuna, Negi, and Naea ran out into the darkness, to find a giant demon stomping around the school grounds.

Naea stared up at the thing in awe. " N-no way… I never thought I'd see one of those things for real…"

" It looks like it's heading towards Evangeline's cottage!," Negi said.

" And?," Asuna shrugged. " I'm sure she can handle it on her own."

As far as Naea was concerned, Evangeline wasn't the one they had to worry about. Without warning he began to dash away from the other two.

" WHERE ARE YOU GOING?," Asuna yelled at him.

He stopped and turned to her. " A friend from my world's at Eva's place. I'm going to make sure she's alright!"

At Evangeline's house, Karai was desperately trying to think of a decent activation key. " Cookies? Nah… That'll never work," She said to herself. " Magic?" No… it should be something original to me. Something that makes … wait. No. It doesn't have to make any kind of sense…

And then Karai noticed the stomping noise outside as well, and looked out a window to see what it was. When she noticed the demon, she just stared at it. It wasn't that it scared her. But for some reason… it just didn't seem as real as it actually was to her. Still though, she figured that she should warn Evangeline about it.

So, Karai walked into the room she had seen Evangeline disappear into earlier, and found her sitting in a chair reading. " I just thought I'd warn you that there's a demon heading this way," Karai said calmly. In her mind she knew that this sort of thing should probably scare her. Especially since it was actually something real and harmful here. Yet… it didn't.

" Another one?," Eva asked, annoyed as she set her book down. " There's been one every night this week. First it was Sakurazaki the thing went after. Then Konoka. After that was Kagurazaka, and Hasegawa. Even the library club. And now one's after me. They just never learn…"

She walked outside and Karai followed her, curious as to what she would do. As the demon came closer, Evangeline put her hands out towards it, and began chanting a spell. "Lic Lac La Lac Lilac! To sumbolaion diakonētō moi, hē krustallinē basileia! Epigenēthētō, taiōnion erebos, Haiōnie Krustalle! Pasais Zōais ton Ison Thanaton, hos Ataraxia! Kosmikē Katastrophē!"

After she said that, the demon became encased in ice.

" That… is so neat…," Karai said, staring at the frozen demon.

A couple of seconds after that, Negi, Asuna, and Naea arrived.

" Master," Negi said, breathing heavily from the run. " You… defeated the demon already?"

" You surprised boya?," Eva asked. " You shouldn't be. You are my pupil after all."

" Why the hell do those things keep attacking us?," Asuna asked, looking up at the thing.

Eva shrugged. " They're demons. It's what they do."

" Yes…," Negi said, worry clearly showing itself on his face. " But they've only been targeting my partners…"

Naea came over to stand by the frozen demon. He studied it up and down, and then asked his question. " Just how long as this been going on?"

" The past few nights.," Negi replied. " Why'd you want to know?"

" That's… weird…," Naea said, touching the ice. As he stared up at the demon, he could swear that he saw it's red eyes move… " Seems…like… it's after something… perhaps someone…"

" Of course it is!," Evangeline said, whacking him over the head. " It was trying to kill me! Geez boy, are you this stupid in your own world?"

All of a sudden, Naea noticed the ice starting to crack, and moved his hand away. Ice started falling from the demon in big, sharp, shards.

" What in the..," Naea said, before suddenly getting pushed out of the way by Evangeline.

He then watched as one of the falling ice shards stabbed her through the shoulder. " Damn it!," She cried. " You idiot!"

Oh. So she's blaming that on me?, Naea thought to himself as the demon completely broke free of the ice.

" Ah damn it!," Asuna said, taking out her pactio card. " Adeat!" A bright light began shining around Asuna. And when it faded, she had her large sword artifact in her hands. She rushed at the demon with it, and began to attack. However, her attacks did nothing.

Karai watched this in amazement, wishing that she could also do something to help. But, the only thing she knew that she could do was… Actually. That might actually be somewhat useful.. With this in mind, Karai walked over to one of the demon's giant feet, and put her hands out.

" Practi Biginaru Ardescat!" She called. Flames shot from her hands, burning the demon's feet. If this wasn't a serious situation, Karai would have laughed at what she'd just done. It seemed to have caught the demon's attention.

The thing looked down at her. " Creator…," It said.

Karai blinked. " Creator? What do you…" Before she could finish that sentence, the demon swiftly grabbed her off the ground. " I found you, Creator."

" Mind telling me what you mean by that?," Karai asked.

The demon said nothing else, and started to walk off with her.

" Naea!," Asuna yelled. " What are you doing just standing there? Your friend just got captured! Go help her!"

That's right, Naea thought to himself. I promised I'd protect her… and I will! He grabbed his Pactio card. " ADEAT!" A bright light then encompassed Naea. His cloths became a battle uniform with a dragon on the front of it. A piece of armor covered his left shoulder.

" This… is my Pactio?," he asked. " Where's the artifact?"

" Never mind that!," Asuna said, running in front of the demon, and striking at it once more. " Get over here and help me!"

Naea turned to Negi. " Stay here and protect Eva, alright?"

" Him protect me?," Eva asked, somehow able to sound amused despite the pain the wound in her shoulder was giving her. " Riiight. You'd just better not get yourself. killed fighting that thing kid."

" I wouldn't plan on it," Naea said, running at the demon. He jumped up at it, and was surprised to find that he could jump extremely high up into the air. He landed on the demon's shoulder.

" Hey Naea. What's up," Karai said.

" This really isn't the time for that," Naea said, kicking the demon in the head. He then found that his hunch about having super strength was wrong, when he felt a searing pain in his foot. " AH! I ALMOST BROKE MY FOOT!"

The demon, obviously now annoyed that not only had this kid just kicked him in the head, but then yelled in his ear, grabbed Naea with his other hand, and stared at him for a moment. " Naea… Urahara…"

Instead of wondering how the demon knew his name, Naea 's thoughts suddenly became downcast and depressed. I can't believe it. Even with this… I'm still just a screw up! I guess it's true. I really am worthless! And I promised to protect her! Damn it!

Naea's pactio card began slipping from his pocket a little bit, allowing him to see the top of his picture on it. What is this? There's a speech bubble there. Wait… that's not a speech bubble. It's a thought bubble! And it has something written in it. It… says… imagination? Wait… I think… I just figured out what I can do! Let's see… if I just concentrate. SS3 Goku…SS3 Goku… " SS3 GOKU! GET OUT HERE AND HELP US!"

And then Goku, in his super saiyen 3 form, appeared right in front of him.

" I see you need help Naea.," Goku said, eyeing the demon. " Alright then." He takes aim at the demon, with blue flashing energy appearing in his hands. "KAMEHAMEHA!" The energy then blasted right through the demon, causing it to disappear. He then disappeared as well.

And then, Naea and Karai began to fall.

" Okay," Karai said. " Good save with the Dragon Ball Z dude, but um.. Now we're falling to our doom."

" No we're not!," Naea said. " I need wings!" Angel like wings suddenly appeared on his back, and he flew over to Karai and caught her. Then he flew with her to the ground.

" Well. That was eventful," Karai said, while thinking to herself, Damn it! I was completely useless in that! Everyone else got to help. Well. Negi kinda just stood by for some reason. But still! I wanted to help out too, and I end up almost getting captured! I'm gonna have to do something about that later…

Evangeline, who had been leaning against Negi, tried to stand and walk up to Naea, but ended up just falling back against him again. " Boy… what kind of power was that?," She asked.

Naea thought about that, unsure how to answer the question at first. " I think… I may just have the ability… to make what I imagine real!"

A/N: So, what'd you think of this chapter? Naea and I would love some feedback on this, as it's a big project we're working on. (Seriously, we've been writing this in script format back and forth for six months now. I'm not kidding.) So please, tell us what you think. We hope you like the story. :3
