I do not own negima.

Sojiro, using a weapon called Acsalon went head to head with the enemy until he was almost defeated. Setsuna stepped in, and was provoked into using her Artifact.

Just was she cried out Adeat, the man brought out a strange Object and strange magic suddenly surrounded her.

"ut furetur" The man said smiling. "You have lost." Setsuna was shocked to see the strange magic, and then felt as if she was getting pulled. Soon she realized that her weapon was vanishing along with sudden pain. The magic soon enveloped her and she screamed. Sojiro tried to stop it, but an invisible force pushed him away. "Setsuna!" The object the man had slowly turned into a card shape. Sojiro looked closely and saw that it was an Artifact card. Is it an Artifact he's using?!

The man, seeming to read the thougths of Sojiro spoke as the Magic sowly leached away revealing Setsuna, who looked like she did before using her Artifact. A card fell next to her head. It was Blank. "This is not a Artifact. It is a device that allows me to 'Steal Artifacts'." Sojiro looked at the man, "What do you mean?"

"I mean exactly what I said. Another thing about this, is that the Pactio she made with this card is Invalid. Like It Never even existed. Twisting the rules and laws of the Pactio System is what this device does." he explained.

Setsuna slowly and very weakly tried standing up. Her sword was used to helo hold herself up. "What did...you...do to...me?" she asked. Her voice sounding close to a dead person.

The man grinned again and showed her a Artifact card...Her's. But it was him on the card...not her. "The Pactio you made with your Ojou-sama is no more. When I stole it, the Pactio system was destabilized. The side effects as follows: Severe drain on the victim's Power which is why your almost dead. And the Victim is unable to perform anymore Pactios. Forever."

Setsuna clenched her teeth...She couldn't beat this guy without her Artifact...yet if she did it would get stolen...now she can't even preform another Pactio? What about.. "Wait! What happens to the Servant's Master?!"

The man looked at her. His grin chilled her bones. "Why, that's the other bad thing. In addition to what happens to the servant...The Master has half of their Soul taken away. Emotions...personality...even Memories."

"?!"

"Yes...Your Ojou-sama...is no longer the girl you once knew. Nothing but a Shell of her former self."

In Blind rage, Setsuna got up charging at the man. "I'm going to kill you!" her scream was murderous as she engaged the man.

He was completely calm about this. "I see...you'd go great lengths to kill the one who hurt your Ojou-sama..." he said as he blocked the numurous attacks from setsuna... "But...Adeat: Takemikazuchi." He activated his newly stolen Artifact and Setsuna gasped. The man then said, "I shall send you to heaven." The man used setsuna's own artifact to cut her down. Her rage subsided as she realized what happend...she was cut down by the power that she once used...As she fell, she realized how high she was... Images of Konoka flashed through her mind. Tears fell from her eyes. I'm sorry...Konoka... her eyes glazed over and she slammed into the ground.

Setsuna Sakurazaki. A Member of Ala Alba. One of the Strongest Heroes of the Magic World. Has Fallen.

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHH

The man who was partner to the one who was battling Setsuna and Sojiro, Quindecim(which means fifteen) stood a small distance away from a oragned haired boy wearing blck which white strips and a long green scarf. This boy had two weapons capable of changing into Pistols... From his burnt left arm he guessed that the red gun fired Fire magic...the other gun fired Ki...and this boy was very skilled.

che...this is stupid...this guy's power is way too high...I thought that we had all the people in Mahora and the Magic word scanned... looking at the mark on the boys clothes...he had never seen that symbol..course, then again he was a new guy to his own organization replacing a member who died somehow some two years ago. When they invaded Mahora, it was easy. But now he was facing someone maybe in his early twenties.

"Well now...your certainly easy compared to the higher-up guys." the man said. "Oh sorry, forgot to say who i was. Richard Takeshi. The guy who's going to Kick. Your. Asses."

Richard was suddenly in front of Quindecim, both of his weapons were in their sword form as a X mark slash was on Quindecim's body. Enraged Quindecim tried attacking him with his strange weapon again, which caused a Shockwave of Fire and Lighting. Quindecim's weapon looked like a sword in the shape of a Lighting Bolt. it was big and clumsy, not realy suited for fighting a Dual Blader like Richard.

"This is retarded...You shouldn't even be in this world...because of your species...Cat boy." Richard looked at him. "My Father was a Pure Human who married a magic world resident. I can actually come to the real world without having to enter a Artificial Body."

Quindecim clenched his teeth. This would be easy if the brat used his Artifact... Richard laughed. "If your waiting for some Artifact to steal, well your are wasting your time. I dont have one." he spoke as if he knew what Quindecim was trying to do..course his Partner's target was a member of the Ala Alba and they knew that they had Artifacts. But this man was different...how could he(richard) beat him without a Artifact? it was stupid since thats how it was supposed to be. They couldn't be defeated...

Quindecim attcked Richard and they went back into what had turned itno a pattern. they fight, talk, then fight again.

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Sojiro looked at the body of Setsuna...she was just bearly hanging on from what he could tell. This is bad.. The man looked at her, and from what Sojiro could see is he figured that she wasnt dead yet.

"Oh wow...she really is alot like a certain person i know...Just wont die no matter how wounded they get..well with her kind i guess it's not surprising." He said this as he vinally touched ground and walked over. "I guess the shock of her friend's fate was more damaging..." .

"Guess I just need to cut her head off..." He stood over her and lifted the sword high.

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Quindecim was slammed into a small mountain by Richards last attack. "Dammit!" Richard was actually impressed, this guy can handle being pushed around...the fact that all his attacks seemed to have been close to nullified...it must be some sort of ability that halves the damage taken...

"Geez...you are one tough bastard..." he commented. Quindecim laughed, "We were given supreme abilties compared to you by our lord. You wont find me easy to beat." Richard stood there as Quindecim laughed, "Im just simply stronger than you in terms of-" He soon found a red blade at the nap of his neck from the left. He jerked his head to the right and flipped landing about twenty feet from where he once was. Richard had closed the gap faster than he could have seen.

Blood trickled down his face since instead of the blade hitting his neck it slashed his face. "Crap...I meant to cut off your head..." Quindecim couldn't believe this...someone was out fighting him is terms of speed...not to mention that he has been unable to get even a stratch on Richard...maybe richard was his natural enemy? dual blades are very quick compared to his massive lightning bolt sword. Maybe this guy was just in fact stronger...but that made no sense. Their information was complete with all possible obsticals...what the hell is wrong here?!

Richard could see that Quindecim was beginning to lose it...Richard seemed to not know, but a glint in his eyes suggested otherwise. It wont be long until it takes full effect...I managed to keep his attention away from my Sap spell..sooner or later that stupid magic of his will be drained enough for me to finish this...Course I feel that the other battle isn't going so well...I also feel a third person in the mix where that fight is...i better hurry.

Richard spun his blades and was ready to fight. "Lets go." Quindecim grinned, "Your gonna die this time." not likely.. They charged at each other and what came next was a flash of light and Quindecim noticed that Richard was already behind him. When did he? two more wounds on his body were visible and blood splattered all over the ground. impossible... Richard turned around and jumped into the air to administer the killing blow. "Damn you!" Quindecim screamed. Then, a shadow appeared and richard was forced to Dodge an oncoming attack. Oh now what?

Hmmmm...I wonder if i made the right move in killing off Setsuna...it'll be a while to find out what happened.

Setsuna's fate will be revealed in Chapter 7. XD
