It was the weekend after the incident at the festival.

Negi was standing on the hill where he met Takahata.

Gazing out in the valley.

His eyes were focused on the terrain of Wales, but his mind was off, somewhere on a island-country in Asia.

Classes 2-A and 3-A. The two classes he taught.

Different years. Same people. Or in this case, same girls.

Negi was reflecting on his decision to leave without a decent goodbye or any kind of notice.

Negi felt a tear run down his cheek.

He noticed it and wiped immediately

A feminine voice reached the boy-mage's ears.

'' Hey, you! Negi! HEY!!!!''

Negi was completely spaced out in his thoughts.

''Hey! I'm talking to you!'' The voice yelled again.

This time, Negi snapped back to reality and turned around.

''NEGI, YOU COMPLETE IDIOT!!!!!!!''

Anya Flame Buster!!!!

''Ehh?'' Negi was caught off guard by the blazing inferno that was headed for him.

A loud eruption of flames and yells flowed the attack.

Negi had swirls in his eyes by this time. but he was able identify the ''attacker''.

''Anya!! Why'd you do that!!??'' exclaimed Negi.

Negi childhood friend, Anya, was standing with death glare.

'' Geez, can't you recognized your childhood friend when she calls you!!!???''

Nekane soon followed with her soft smile, '' Now, now Anya. You don't want to burn this area up do you?''

Anya turned and calmed down. She faced Negi with a smile, '' Hello Magister Magi Negi.''

Negi got out of his state of shock and smiled back at her. ''Anya...''

However, the moment was shattered when four girls stampeded to where Negi stood.

''Why didn't you tell us Negi!!!!!?????'' they all said in unison.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

''And that's it. I'm sorry I never mentioned her to any of you.'' Negi apologized.

Annabelle cocked her head, ''I see, guess the ratio is evened out now. We've got the shy, pretty girl, the-''

Iris covered her mouth before she said anything else.

''I'm very sorry Anya, sometimes Annabelle can get out of hand.'' Iris smiled.

Under the cover of Iris' hand, Annabelle yelled out muffled rants about Negi and all the girls.

Negi smiled and turned to Anya,''How was your training in London Anya?''

''I could ask you the same thing Negi, I heard Mahorafest was amazing this year...'' Anya teased.

Negi's eyes widened,'' Oh, you found out?''

''Well, it's not like Japan only knows about an event that big.'' commented Anya.

'' Hmmm... Anya, are you going to take Master Magi classes like Negi?'' asked Nekane.

''Master Magi, well... I think that I deserve a break from training AND school for now.'' replied Anya.

TWILIGHT TIME

Negi was gazing out into the sunset.

Sunsets in the mountains are different than the ones you see in the beach.

You get to see the remnants of the sky fading into the dark of night.

Negi let his mind wander once again.

He smiled to himself, thinking of the memories he made.

He then remembered that he left a book in his desk at the school. It was forbidden that students roam the corridors at this hour.

But Negi could sneak his way and get out unscathed, right?

(Heeellloo! I was REALLY BUSY WITH SCHOOL, so don't hate me for not updating. I hope you keep reading, it's gonna get GOOD!!!)
