The Rebellion:

Mahora Academy/10:00pm/Underground Sewer System/

Three weeks five days after Take over

Location: Mahora. . Guard Lizard men can also be seen milling about while small military units of Lizard beings are marching around.

The magic barrier should have prevented the invasion. For unknown reasons, the barrier was down and it appeared to have been disabled purposefully. It never should have happened. The only conclusion one could draw was there must be a traitor in their midst, though they might never find out who it was now. In the dead of night, during the Graduation Ceremony, around thirty thousand of them appeared out of nowhere. It was as if someone said 'Poof' and suddenly they were here, there and everywhere. There wasn't a place you could look where you didn't see them. Chaos reigned over the next week as the Lizard men took control of Mahora. No one knew who was controlling the Lizard men, nor their objecting in taking over Mahora.

For the next two weeks Mahora was transformed into what felt like a prison camp to the residents, as the invaders enacted new laws and curfews to control Mahora's native peoples. The residents of Mahora made attempts to return to a semblance of normal life though vacations, festivals and sleepovers had all been banned, making social interactions and gatherings nearly impossible. Dissidents were imprisoned, abused, or launched through a portal at the World Tree to unknown dimensions.

In spite of the clampdown from the invading army of Lizard men Mahora's residents began to form a rebellion. Over the past week and a half, Lizard men had been killed and places where the Lizard men had taken up residence were slowly being discovered and destroyed. The incidences of attacks on the Lizard men were few, at first, but as time went on, the rebels grew bolder and the attacks began to occur with more frequency. It became obvious to the invaders a rebellion was forming and growing. In an attempt to combat the rebellion, the invaders rounded up the Magic Teachers including the Dean, plus five or six members of the Ala Alba and imprisoned them as warning to others. As attacks on the Lizard men continued, the invaders determined the remaining members of the Ala Alba were the leaders of the rebellion. Fortunately for the rebels, the invaders had been unable to locate and capture Dark Evangel, Albireo Imma, Takamichi Takahata, and Eishun Konoe.

(Line break-Line break)

It was 10:00 PM, five hours past curfew. Those who had been caught breaking curfew were taken elsewhere, presumably for punishment. A young girl in a Mage robe crept into the dark of night. She seemed to be headed for a specific destination and took care to avoid the Lizard men marching throughout Mahora. Though the Lizard men had controlled Mahora for three and one half weeks now, they still did not know the territory well. The young girl easily escaped notice ducking behind dumpsters and other objects as was necessary. Snickering to herself after a close call, she continued on her journey. She took note of an increase in Lizard men on patrols and decided it was due to the increasingly successful attacks by the rebels. Choosing to avoid putting any more thought to the danger she was in, she came to an alleyway, the place where she had been headed all along. Kneeling, she softly placed her hand on the ground and knocked. The ground opened in front of her, revealing a ladder for her to climb down. Working her way down the ladder, she noticed the hole close above her just as she heard a patrol of Lizard men coming. The Lizard men froze in their tracks, listening for where the sound of the closing hole had come from. Believing the sound had come from the alleyway, the patrol searched the area. Coming up empty-handed, they became confused and annoyed. Frustrated, the Lizard men decided to resume their patrol.

Reaching the bottom of the ladder, the girl found herself in a massive, ancient sewer pipe. She walked along the pipe taking a left turn after a bit. Continuing, for what seemed like hours, she stopped and turned to face the wall of the pipe at a specific point. Placing her hand on the wall caused the outline of a door to appear and slide open. She walked through the door and into another long passageway. Although she had spent much of her time in this underground location for the past couple of weeks she still couldn't get over the number of passageways it contained.

She walked through the hallway, which had lights along the wall, until she encountered a door. The girl

knocked on the door three times, waited, and then knocked two times, waited, and then knocked four times and stopped. She repeated the succession of knocks and said, "We are the White Wings of the Angel."

The door opened, revealing none other than Kotarou Inugami. He smiled at the girl and said "What took you so long Nee-chan?"

The Girl removed her hood in annoyance, showing herself to be Chisame Hasegawa. "Shut up, it's not my fault that they have more lizard things than normal tonight."

He smirked, "Well, most of us are here, the others are keeping watch for us."

"Wait a sec, who's outside?" she asked.

He responded, "Let's see...Tatsumiya nee-chan...and Kazumi Nee-chan, who has her artifact keeping watch as well."

Suddenly, someone else entered the room. It was Kaede who was partially hidden within her

artifact. "Whew, they bumped up security quite a bit." she said. "I looked around and counted at least fifty more patrols. They are dead set on finding the people who are always destroying their little tower places." she added with a smile.

Kotarou laughed. "Nice! Anyway, everyone's back there." he pointed behind him with his thumb. "The meeting is about to start." The meeting's agenda contained three items: One, a plan to free Negi and the other members of Ala Alba, the teachers, and pretty much everyone else who had been taken through the portal; two, try to figure out where Konoka and Setsuna were; and lastly, three, beating the hell out of the Lizard-Monster Hybrid.

Aside from Kotarou, Chisame, and Kaede, the rest of the meeting's attendees consisted of Takamichi, Haruna, Nodoka, Yue, Albireo Imma, Evangeline, Eishun, Kazumi, and Zazie. The group called themselves the Mahora Revolutionists, a temporary name. Their leader was Takamichi Takahata and the co-leader was Albireo Imma. They were seated on pipes, the floor, or standing around the room.

"Okay, I'd like to begin tonight's meeting discussing a plan to rescue of Negi-kun, and the other members of the Ala Alba. We would also like to be able to save the teachers and students whom were thrown into the portal by the Lizard people." Takamichi started the meeting. Turning to Kaede, "I assume that you have learned something Kaede?"

She nodded, "Yes, it seems as though wherever those things came from is on the other side of that portal. I asked Kazumi if she would send one of her camera golems through it three days ago, and as you know she's been using her artifact for the last few days. I think she has something to say."

Kazumi stood up from the pipe she was sitting on and said "Kaede pretty much summed it up, after I let one of my camera's go through the portal, this was the image we received." A transparent screen appeared above her, the image it held was unlike any they had ever seen before.

The sky was pitch black, full of dark clouds. Lightning crackled. Off in the distance, volcanoes were erupting, fires were ablaze throughout the landscape, and smoke filled the sky. Massive buildings, surrounded by razor sharp fences littered the horizon. Thousands upon thousands of the Lizard-like monsters marched in massive military formations. There were hundreds of massive beasts wearing armor, falling into battle lines and looking very much like an invading army. In short, the place looked like a strange mixture of a pre-historic landscape with pockets of modern buildings and modern, militant Lizard men.

Of greater interest were the hundreds of people in ragged clothes and chains, lined up within the barbed wire walls. The prisoners stood in lines being beaten by the Lizard guards as they were being led into the massive building. There were also people being led out of the building. Plumes of smoke were pouring out of the roof.

The Ala Alba members all gasped. Chisame asked, "Is that who I think..." she stopped mid sentence in shock. Kazumi nodded, "Yes, they are the students taken by the Lizard men..." She looked at the images. "Three and a half weeks of this...I can't even begin to imagine..."

Al looked away. Evangeline shook her head in disgust. "In all my years I have never seen such places like this..." Al agreed, "Yes, this is a deplorable sight." He turned to Kazumi, "I assume this is a live feed, Kazumi-san?" She nodded with despair. "Unfortunately, it is...Right now I sent one other of my artifacts to locate Negi-sensei, so far it hasn't found anything..."

Chisame clenched her fists. "So, while the others are suffering we are just sitting on our hands doing nothing?" Al quickly moved in front of her. "Oh no, we are not just sitting down. Negi knows what he's doing. He sent Sarkurazaki-san and Konoe-san away from Mahora for a very special reason."

"And what exactly is that?" asked Chisame. Eva's voice broke in, "Fufu, remember where they would be going, my naive girl."

"You don't mean..."

Evangeline nodded. "Yes, they are going to the Magical World."

Everyone except Al, Takamichi, Zazie and Kazumi were shocked at this. Chisame then asked, "Does that mean what I think it means?"

Eva nodded, "Yes, they are going to see your friend, Jack Rakan, along with the person who has been training with him." Chisame said, "Asuna…?" Eva nodded, "Exactly."

Al jumped in. "Even though they have been gone for only three weeks, they are making steady progress." He had taken a spot sitting cross legged on a sewage pipe. "They are fast approaching one of the gateways to the Magical World as we speak." He said with a smile. "In fact, I'd say that they should arrive in about two days."

Suddenly, someone kicked at his chest from behind, but it passed right through him as usual. The offender was, of course, Evangeline, "Stop taking this so calmly you bastard!"

Albireo laughed lightly. "Calm down Kitty, I am being serious." Eva's face burned with rage and her hand was in a fist. "I told you not to call me that!"

Takamichi spoke up. "Hey, hey now that's enough. We are not here to fight each other." Al was holding Eva by the collar from behind, silence held them all for few more seconds before Al let go saying, "You're right, just wanted to tease her a little." "Damn you."

"In any case, we need to find a way to rescue them." Takamichi pointed to at the screen still showing the image. "Before we can do that, we need to take back Mahora."
