Chapter 6: The More You Know
"After finally escaping the girls, I was heading back to the dorms; and well that was when I met up with you two" Isaac had explained his situation to Negi and Asuna. Wow, he's really understanding.. is he really only 10? Isaac then shifted his gaze towards an uninterested Asuna; And.. I'm sure that she was there when my spell went off too.. right?
"So, Isaac-kun. That spell you casted was really a love potion?" Negi wondered with his curiosity rising.
"Yep, and trust me, if it wasn't for Chachamaru, I'd have Eva's bite marks on my neck to prove it." Isaac commented. Though.. I wonder why she's been trying to bite me all this time..
"Hah, you almost got bitten by that pint-sized vamp?" Asuna mocked him, Negi stepped in to his defence.
Wait.. Vamp!? Evangeline's a vampire!? Isaac tried his best to keep a straight face, despite how he thought back on how he taunted her hours ago. I knew that would come back to haunt me somehow..
"Asuna-san! That's not the case here... I still remember what happened when this happened to me before.." Negi reminded her of the effects of the love potion that Negi had made for her in the past. Never once trying to attempt it again.
"This happened to you?" Isaac looked at the young boy curiously "How'd you get rid of it?" The boy looked desperate, wanting to solve his love problem before complications rise.
"It wore off" The girl next to the child stated, bluntly. "Lasted about half and hour."
"But.. that spell you casted must have been very strong for it to last this long, I'm impressed." Negi smiled at him.
..Honestly, now's not the time for compliments.. He glared at Negi; but then shifted his gaze to Asuna; "By the way.. How come you weren't affected?" Isaac questioned, noting that she wasn't showing any feeling towards him. "I'm sure that you were in my class too."
"I have this Magic thing.. I can't really explain it myself. But apparently Magic doesn't work on me." Asuna explained her situation to him; leaving him confused.
"Huh.. I didn't think that it was possible to have that kind of ability.." Isaac eyed her curiously. Well.. that does explain it.. so that's one more girl I don't have to worry about. He looked back at Negi. "So.. do you think you help with the random spell casting problem? Since we can't really deal with this love thing.. at the moment."
Negi thought for a bit and looked back at Isaac "Sorry.. I don't think I can do anything for you at the moment."
Isaac slumped in his chair. "Ha.. Great.. Just great.." Isaac felt like he'd lost all hope "Thanks anyway Negi" Trying to put on a fake smile, though in his mind he was thinking about how he could solve his gambit ability. Now what the hell am I going to do?
"Well, I guess that we could ask Takamichi if he can help with the situation" Negi suggested, with a hint of hope in his eyes. "I'm sure that he will be able to help us. We can all go see him tomorrow."
..Taka.. Oh! That guy from yesterday? Isaac looked back at Negi with a genuine smile on his face "Alright, it wouldn't hurt to try.. right?" I'm not really sure about what this guy can do.. but I'll be willing to give it a shot. Isaac looked at the time on his watch and his eyes widened. O..oh crap.. it's getting late! I'd better head back before Chisame gets worried* Isaac quickly bidded his student and fellow teacher goodbye and sped off towards the dorms

Wow, not even 5 minutes since I posted this picture and already 10 guys have tried to hit on me. Almost beat my old record, of course, nothing can beat that sailor uniform that I used. Chisame grinned to herself. She glanced at the time in the bottom of her computer screen. Huh? 7:00 pm already? That was fast..
The door flew open and Isaac stepped in, out of breath and closed the door behind him. "S-sorry.. I took so long.." Isaac leaned on the wall to support himself.
What? Oh.. right I sent him out to do some shopping didn't I? I completely forgot about him, I was so focused on my status. "Whatever, did you atleast get the food?" Chisame turned on her computer chair, but did not see any shopping bags. I suppose not..
"Yeah" Isaac finally caught his breath and stepped forwards, revealing his card from his pocket. He shook it a bit, and held it out infront of him. "ADEAT!" With a flash, the shopping bags fell before him. Isaac shook the card around again.
"W..what the hell was that!?" Chisame queried, "That card of yours just made the shopping appear." She stood up and walked over to him, she held out her hand, signalling him to give her the card.
"Eh? My card?" Isaac hesitated, but finally pulled out his card, there was an insignia on the back of it; it looked like a sort of 'G' but it looked the same upside down. "I got it from my old academy" Isaac handed it to her. "In my old school they give all graduates unique cards, some allow transportation; others become weapons. And well, all I can figure out is mine can hold a lot of stuff, so I use it like a storage space. Apparently it never gets full"
Chisame eyed every inch and corner of the card. "So how do you use it?" Chisame continued examining it.
"It focuses itself on mental capability, so while holding it, you picture the item you want from it in your head, and shout 'adeat'. But for when I want to put something in it, I hold the card over it and say 'abeat'. It's pretty straight forward."
Chisame handed the card back to Isaac; "By the way.. You'll be sleeping on the floor tonight."
"Eh? What do you mean?"
"If you haven't noticed, my room doesn't have a double bed. So you can go ask around for a spare matress or something, I don't really care." Chisame said blankly, she turned her computer off, and looked through her schedule; "Good, no chemistry tomorrow, I won't have to see you again for a while."
"..Gee, I'll miss you too." Isaac mocked in a sarcastic tone. She really doesn't care about my health.. Well.. as for a matress... Isaac held his card over an empty space and pictured something in his mind, Please tell me a put it in here... "ADEAT!" A white light flashed out, and a beanbag chair dropped from the card. This will do. He propped it up against a wall in a corner. Well.. I guess that this won't be too bad. He looked back to see Chisame working on her computer; he plopped into his beanbag chair and slowly let his conciousness slip away.
..Man.. I'm.. so tired...
A/N:
Incredibly short chapter this time... Not sure why, probably a bad chapter. Next one will try to be longer
* He doesn't completely know that Chisame doesn't really care.
