Previously…

Public Bath

"Sister! I can do it alone!", Negi cried out.

"No way you are! You'll just soak your hair and say you're done. Now YIELD!", Nekane said while furiously scrubbing Negi's hair.

"I yield! I surrender!", Negi shouted out loud.

"Whoa…", Asuna said.

"Nekane-san's more extreme in washing Negi-kun than you are, Asuna.", Konoka commented.

"Can't argue with that.", Asuna said. 'Why am I… Am I jealous of them? I feel like… like… I can't take it anymore!'

"Konoka! Let's join them!", Asuna said as she jumped in the water.

"Sure!", Konoka said while jumping in as well. 'I know you're jealous of them, Asuna. But that doesn't mean you're the only one!'

"Ah! Reinforcements! Help your commander destroy this filthy beast!", Nekane said when she spotted the two girls.

"YES MA'AM!", Asuna and Konoka replied while getting their hands on Negi.

"SOMEBODY! HELP!!!!", Negi shouted out to the heavens.

Negi, Asuna, Konoka, and Nekane's dormroom

"Negi-kun, time to wake up. Breakfast is ready for you."

"Zzzz…"

"Don't worry about it Konoka-san, I'll wake him up…", Nekane said.

Negi suddenly bolted up.

"I'm awake, I'm awake! Wonderful day isn't it, sister?", Negi said with his whole body shaking.

"I'm sure it is, Negi. Now eat your breakfast and get dressed so we can leave early.", Nekane said with a smile.

"O-of course, sister.", Negi said.

Train to Mahora Academy

"So Negi-kun, how are you feeling today?", Konoka asked.

"I'm fine, Konoka-san. Why? Is there a problem?", Negi replied.

"Oh nothing. It's just that you fainted in the public bath yesterday. Nekane-san carried you back to the room.", Konoka said.

Flashback

"Girls! I think we're not cleaning the foul beast hard enough! Let's do it with maximum power!", Nekane shouted out.

"Roger!", Konoka and Asuna said.

The three girls scrubbed Negi here, there, and everywhere with the ferocity of a Tyrannosaurus Rex.

"Oh dear, I think we went too far", Konoka said.

"Well, at least he's squeaky clean. Right, Negi?", Asuna said.

"Brrlrblbrbl…", the now-unconscious Negi blurted out.

End Flashback

"Oh… yes…", Negi thoughtfully said.

The train suddenly had some "turbulence".

"Wa-waahh!". Negi cried out. 'Oh no… This is another one of those incidents where I end up face first on a girl's… chest!'

And unfortunately, he did. Except it wasn't just some girl.

"Negi! You should watch your step. If I didn't react quick enough you might have wounded up on another girl's chest.", Nekane said.

"Ack! Sister I'm sorry!", Negi said as he tried to push himself away from Nekane's bosoms. But a pair of tender arms held him in place.

"Don't even bother. Let me just hold you here. I have a hunch that this train's gonna have a bumby ride today.", Nekane said.

"O-okay…", Negi answered, oblivious to the staares of the people around him and Nekane.

Mahora Academy – 3A

"Good morning everyone!", Negi said to his class.

"Good morning Negi-sensei/kun!", 3A replied.

"Judging by the looks of our schedule, we're behind in our English lessons. So we better begin right now during homeroom period and cover up as much as we can.", Negi said,

"But Negi-sensei, some of us haven't introduced ourselves to Nekane-san!", some of the girls said.

"I'm sorry girls, but we're really behind in our English lessons. You can use the time for lunch break to talk to Nekane-san."

Three girls were pondering over the things that Negi said. Namely Ayaka, Chachamaru, and Sayo.

'Oh no, this can totally ruin my plan for a one on one chat with Nekane-san. I'm 100 sure that most of the girls will be clobbering Nekane-san with questions during lunch break!", Ayaka thought.

'Lunch break is one of the few times I'm free because the mistress doesn't have any orders during the break. She just sits down on the school rooftop during the break. But now, I can't just talk to Nekane-san in front of the other girls. I want to look good in front of her, because I believe that there's a higher chance that Negi-sensei will accept me if I become really good friends with his sister.', Chachamaru thought.

'Auu… I really love Negi-sensei. But for him to love me, a ghost, back is almost impossible. But I know I can do it! Being friends with Nekane-san will really help me win Negi's heart. But now, I can't talk to her privately. I'm not even sure if she can see me at all! But still, I have to try my best! What was that Negi-sensei said? Talk to Nekane-san during lunch break? Great! Wait, all of the other girls will be after her too! No!!!', Sayo thought.

"Or you can visit Asuna-san and Konoka-san's dormroom where I'm staying because Nekane-san's staying there too", Negi cheerfully added.

A streak of lightning flashed through Ayaka, Chachamaru, and Sayo's minds.

'The dormroom it is…'

'The dormroom it is…'

'The dormroom it is…'

After school - Negi, Asuna, Konoka, and Nekane's dormroom

"Hitting the books, Asuna-san? That's a surprise.", Negi said when he saw Asuna studying.

"Shut up brat. I just felt like studying.", Asuna said.

Ding Dong

"I'll get it!", Nekane said as she went to the door.

"Oh! And who might you be, young miss?", Nekane asked.

"S-sayo Aisaka, Nekane-san. I'm Negi-sensei's student from 3A. I was hopnig if I could talk to him about… um… today's lesson! Yes, today's lesson!", Sayo said.

"Of course you can. Come in! Please make yourself comfortable.", Nekane cheerfully said.

"Negi! You have a visitor here! She says she's your student!", Nekane called out.

"One minute! I'll be right there!", Negi answered.

"H-hello and good evening, N-negi-sensei.", Sayo said.

"Ack! Sayo-san! How could travel as far as here? I thought you're tied to the school.", a surprised Negi said.

"Years of practice and, um… determination!", Sayo said.

"Sister, you can see her?", Negi asked.

"Uh… Yes?", Nekane said.

"Okay then Sayo-san, what is that you wanted to talk about today's lesson?", Negi asked.

"Well, actually, Negi-sensei, I, um-"

Ding Dong

"I'll get it!", Nekane said.

"Wonder who that may be…", Negi said.

"Negi! You've got another student here! She says her name's Chachamaru", Nekane called out.

"Oh! Chachamaru-san! What a pleasant surprise! What may I do for you?", Negi said when he saw his robot student.

"Ah, Negi-sensei! I was just, um, wondering… If Nekane-san and, um, well, you see…", Chachamaru mumbled the last words and then looked at Negi's smiling face.

'Unbelievably attractive…', Chachamaru thought.

"Yes, Chachamaru-san?", Negi cheerfully asked.

"Ah! Please just forget all of this! I will talk to yous ome other time, Negi-sensei!", Chachamaru cried out as she dashed out of the room. 'I must've looked extremely stupid in front of him!', Chachamaru thought.

"I wonder what's bothering her.", Negi said.

Ding Dong

"I'll get it… again.", Nekane said.

"It can't be another-"

"Negi! You have another student here! It's the class rep!", Nekane cried out.

"Another one? Wait… Class Rep-san!?", Negi and Sayo, who had been silent all the while Chachamaru was in the room, shockingly cried out.

'Oh no, not Ayaka-san. She's too confident of herself to fail to ask for whatever she wants from Negi-sensei. I've got to do something! Oh, I know!', Sayo thought as an idea went through her mind.

"Good evening, Negi-sensei!", Ayaka said.

"Good evening, Rep-san. To what do I owe you your presence tonight?", Negi asked.

"Oh, nothing much, Negi-sensei. I was just wondering if Nekane-san and I could-"

A chair flew past Ayaka's head. Then it made a U-turn and hit her straight on the face.

"Dwah!!", Negi cried out.

"What in the world was that!?", Ayaka angrily said as she got up from the assault.

"C-class Rep-s-san, behind you!", Negi cried out.

Ayaka looked behind her and saw words written with blood on the wall. It said,

"gET OUt nOw! GeT ouT oR DiE! ThAt mEaNS yoU AyAKA YuKiHIRo!".

And then some appliances floated in mid-air.

"AGHHHH!!!", Ayaka shouted while running out of the room. Negi was also ready to bolt out but Nekane held the top of his head.

"What was that? I think I heard a scream." Konoka asked

"Oh nothing, Konoka-san. Did Asuna-san already sleep", Nekane said.

"Yep! By the way, I'm off to sleep too. So, goodnight!", Konoka said.

"Goodnight, Konoka-san", Nekane said. Nekane looked at Negi and saw that he was still stunned from the paranormal events.

"Negi, you should take a look at your surroundings. One of your students is still here. You should talk to her.", Nekane said.

"Oh! Sayo-san! I almost forgot!", Negi said while snapping out of his trance.

"Sorry about those, Negi-sensei. I didn't mean to scare you.", Sayo said.

"Oh, so it was you who did those. Well done, Sayo-san.", Negi said to the ghost.

"Well done?", Sayo said.

"Ayaka-san is a nice, sweet girl. But she could be quite some work sometimes. Now, what do you want to ask about today's lesson?", Negi said.

"Negi-sensei, it's not realy about the lesson. It's, um, well, uhh… Right! Can I tour Nekane-san around the school?", Sayo said.

"Well, I think you should ask her", Negi said.

"Well, of course she can!", Nekane said after appearing out of nowhere.

"Well, there you have it.", Negi said.

"I'll be happy to tour the school. You see, your little sensei doesn't really care about me, he ignores me, pretends I'm not here, he"-

"Sister!", Negi cried out as he cut Nekane off.

"Heehee! Just kidding! Tomorrow, okay, Sayo-chan?", Nekane said.

"Okay!", Sayo said.

Silence.

Silence.

More silence.

"Now what?", Negi asked.

"I'm kind of, uhh, afraid to go back at school. Well, I mean, it's so dark and…", Sayo said as her voice trailed off.

"I'll walk you back to school, Sayo-san", Negi said.

"Oh yeah? Then who's gonna walk YOU back here, oh brave knight? Certainly not me! Who knows what might happen to you out there! There are a lot of dangerous people out at night! Sayo-chan, you could stay here for the night, if that's okay with you. Which reminds me, it's time to sleep, Negi!", Nekane said.

'I'll be sleeping here? In the same area as Negi-sensei?', Sayo thought.

"U-um… Okay!", Sayo said.

"I think you can bunk in with Konoka-san.", Nekane said as she dragged Negi to his futon. Sayo made her way to Konoka's bed. Nekane turned off the lights.

"Goodnight, Sayo-chan/san!", Negi and Nekane said.

"You're sleeping together!?", Sayo said.

"Yup!", Nekane said.

"Well, it's, um, uhh, you see… uh… goodnight!", Sayo said.

'Negi-sensei is really so handsome! Tomorrow, I can get to talk to Nekane-san privately. Yes! I'm one step closer to Negi-sensei's heart!', Sayo thought

Golaitz: I really have little time to write. Wahhh! Sorry for the long update. Maybe the next chapter would be a little shorter than this one. See ya next chapter!
