Chapter Three: The Final Introduction

Not a very interesting title, but hey; I do what I can. Anyway, hello there! This is the first beginning comment I left for this Fanfic! Anyway, hope everyone is enjoying the story thus far. And I received a comment earlier asking if Kojima would be a Gary-Sue, although I will not tell you his weakness; he does have one and it can be easily exploited. So there ya are! In later Chapters you will notice it, I gurantee it. Now then, onto the story shall we!?

Negi yawned heavily as he rose from bed; rubbing his eyes gently. He looked around the room, Asuna wasn't in her bed, she was on her paper route, and Konoka was still fast asleep. He rubbed his eyes once more and looked out the window, it was still dark outside. He grumbled, he had awoken early today which rarely ever happened. He slipped on some slippers and stood up from his futon, walking over to the ladder that led down to the floor. He turned and began climbing down. Once he climbed down he proceeded to stare out the window. Tonight was beautiful, the moon was full and stars littered the night sky. Negi smiled then looked down, he blinked. Setsuna was standing down below and heading inside the building. Negi turned away from the mirror and walked to the door, opening it slowly and gently. He closed it softly in order to not make a loud ruckus. He then proceeded off to meet Setsuna halfway. Setsuna was about halfway to the room when she met Negi. Setsuna just stared at him for a moment, she wasn't expecting him to be up.

"Setsuna-Chan, what are you doing here so early?"Negi asked quietly. Setsuna blinked, clearing her throat afterword. "N-Negi-Sensei….Please follow me, we have much to talk about…."Setsuna said while turning away, walking back toward the entrance of the building. Negi looked confused, he wondered what could be on her mind. Nonetheless, he followed after her. Setsuna just outside the building, right infront of the doors actually. Negi walked out, the cool night air made him shiver slightly in his Pajamas. He yawned slightly as he looked to Setsuna, "What's going on?"Negi asked calmly. Setsuna cleared her throat again, "Negi-Sensei….You remember how….How I came back with wounds correct?" "Yes…." "Well….The person who attacked me….He's here for you as well…."She said with a nod. Negi blinked, "Why would he be here for me?"He asked. "I'm not sure, I don't even know why he's here…."Setsuna crossed her arms and sighed. Negi thought for a moment, what other reason would some person come and find him? He grumbled, nothing came to mind as of yet, probably because he was tired still. "Why did he attack you Setsuna-Chan?"Negi asked finally. Setsuna blinked, staring at the ground for a moment. She then looked up, "As of now, I cannot tell you….Maybe later, when the time is right….All I can tell you now…."She turned away from him. "Negi-Sensei, be careful….And please, when I am not around please watch over Ojou-Sama for me…."She nodded then began walking away.

Negi blinked, "W-Wait! That's all you wanted to tell me?"Negi exclaimed, taking a step toward her. "That was all, try to get some sleep Negi-Sensei!"She exclaimed as she continued walking off, soon she disappeared all together. Negi just sighed and turned around, taking a deep breath as he headed inside. As soon as he entered the building, he noticed a figure standing about ten feet away from him. "Negi….Springfield…."The figure said quietly. Negi blinked, he already knew that this was the man Setsuna spoke of. "Who are you?! And why did you attack Setsuna-Chan?!"Negi exclaimed loudly. "That is none of your concern,"The figure said quietly, stepping forward slightly. The light from the moon revealed him to be infact, Kojima. "What are you doing here?" "Mearly introducing myself…."He stepped forward. Negi stepped back, he was being cautious, so far he was noticing this guy would be no push over. Kojima laughed, "Cautious eh? Just like your pathetic Father…."Kojima uttered silently. Negi twitched, "What do you know of him?! Do you know where he is?!"Negi jumped forward, getting in his face practically. Kojima raised his hands defensively, "Whoa there...Calm down there….Least I know I was right,"Kojima said with a grin. Negi blinked, realizing Kojima said that to trick Negi into confessing he was his Nagi's son. Kojima chuckled once more, "Negi Springfield….A battle is coming….But there is two roads that lead to a different ending….One road, you lose the battle, but win….You must win though, but in doing so you will lose…."Kojima stepped back, his figure being covered by the Shadows. Negi looked confused, "Lose but win? Win but lose? Why are you speaking in riddles?!"Negi exclaimed, getting slightly annoyed. Kojima just chuckled, "In due time Negi-Kun….We shall meet again,"Kojima's figure suddenly disappeared into the Shadows. Negi stood there quietly, dumbstruck and in deep thought. Kojima's words were buzzing in and out of his head like an annoying fly that one couldn't kill. He gritted his teeth, kicking the ground with his foot. He wanted to know what this was all about, and what battle?! What the hell is going on?!
