Sayo is bored. Correction, she's feeling like she'll die again if she doesn't do something soon.

It's Monday morning. Another week of chaotic class with their favorite ten year old teacher and the ever enthusiastic classmates that always, and she means ALWAYS, tries to molest the poor kid. But hey, it's just an ordinary day in the un-life of a not so ordinary ghost.

With a sign, Sayo turns from the window to look at her classmates. She has no idea which one this generation is after she died, but she was sure that they're the most interesting bunch out of all those years. Right now, the class's sport girls, Makie, Ako, Yuna, and Akira are talking about some up coming events that are sure to be exciting. One or two desks away from them, Chizuru and Natsumi are talking and gossiping about things. For all reason and purpose, Sayo finds the duo very interesting. The girl with the biggest bust best friends with the girl with the lowest self-esteem… you don't see that everyday.

Right next to her, Kazumi, the class's paparazzi is cleaning her camera again, making sure to wipe every single millimeter of it sparkly clean as she smile a satisfied smile. Looking behind Kazumi, Sayo finds Ku Fei literally seems to just swallow the Choa Bo Zi. Linshen is beaming next to the duo as she continues to produce more buns from Kami knows where while Satsuki is also smiling next to her. Glancing over near the door, she finds Nodoka, the class's librarian reading quietly to herself as Haruna, or "Paru," working with frenzy on her manga. Yue is just… well, being Yue, sipping on a box of elixir as she looks over Nodoka's shoulder to also read whatever the librarian is reading.

Flashing a sad smile, Sayo glance over to where Sarah's seat is, only to find Evangeline and Sarah no where in sight. Signing again, Sayo glance outside the window once more as she remembers what it was like before Sarah arrives. It's not much, but at least she did add a bit more color to her un-life. Also, Sayo finds it interesting that Sarah also happens to be what normal people would think as 'fairy tales,' for like her, Sarah is anything but normal. To put it short, she's a vampire, which Sayo keeps finding very intriguing. Speaking of the vampires, there she is right now following a hyperactive child, who is almost skipping as he sprints towards the school holding what looks like an envelope. 'Negi-sensei… I wonder why he's so happy… and where is Kagurazaka-san and Konoe-san…?' Sayo asks herself as she continues to follow the duo with her eyes, who disappeared inside the building only to reappear a few seconds later in the classroom, slamming the door open, and jog over to where Evangeline sits. Sarah follows slowly, picking up a shell shocked Nodoka, who fell off her chair when Negi slammed into the room, and continued down the lane. Feeling curious, Sayo decides that she might as well listen on what they're talking about… besides, there's nothing better to do…

> > > > > > > > > >

A little earlier…

"WAAAHH! NEGI! WAKE UP! WE'RE GOING TO BE LATE!" Asuna screams as she furiously brushes her hair to get it smoothed out. Once that's done, she dashes over to where Negi's bed is located and yank the cover over only find a certain ermine buried in a pile of… undergarments…? "Eh…?"

"Ah… a-ane-san… I can explain…" Kamo says as he starts to sweat while Asuna just stares at him with wide eyes before a full blown blush creeps onto her face. "T-those are mine…"

"H-hey… let go!" Kamo says as he wrestles with Asuna over a piece of undergarment. "And if you're looking for aniki, he left already." That immediately stopped Asuna in her tracks as she processes the information.

"Eh… that's… early…"

> > > > > > > > > >

A few minutes before modern time…

"GOOD MORNING EVERYBODY!" Negi exclaims as he picks up his pace and sets into a run for the campus. Sarah, who's just following behind him grumbles something about being too early for that.

"GOOD MORNING NEGI-KUN!" Madoka waves with a beaming smile.

"OHAYO NEGI-KUN!" The Narutaki twin screamed.

"KYAAA! NEGI-KUN IS SO KAWAII!" Ayaka screams with heart flying around her.

"OHAYO NEGI-KUN! FEELING BETTER?" Kaede asks knowing exactly what she meant.

"THANK YOU MINA!" Negi replies with enthusiasm as he continues towards the approaching stairs leading to Mahora campus. "Yosh, today is the day!"

"If I may ask…" Sarah begins as she appears right next to her young charge. "WHY IN THE BLOODY NAME OF WALES DID YOU HAVE TO WAKE ME UP THAT EARLY?" Sarah bellowed sending the child off balance just by the sear force of the wind.

"C-calm down Sarah-san… I'm just both excited and anxious…" Negi says as he looks at his caretaker with fear in his eyes. "Besides, today is the day… because today…" At this, he dug into his back pack and produces a white envelope with the kanji of 'challenge' written on it, "TODAY I WILL CHALLENGE EVANGELINE-SAN!"

"And I'm involved because…?" Sarah asks the obvious questions, not expecting an answer…

"Well, you are supposed to take care of me… BONK! Itai…" Negi moans as he nurses a new bump as Sarah just 'hmph' and look away. 'Yosh… there's no turning back…' Negi thought to himself as determination replaces pain all the while they mount the steps towards the building…

> > > > > > > > > >

Negi charged down the hall with Sarah walking in a casual pace behind him… okay, very behind him. Still, as he charges down the hall, Sarah couldn't help but smile at his antic. 'I wonder if he knows…'

Reaching the classroom, Negi grab the door handle, and with unimaginable force, slide it open with a loud BAM! scaring poor Nodoka, who 'eep' and fall from her chair with her eyes wide open. "GOMEN!"

"AAH! NODOKA!" Yue exclaim, ready to help the poor girl when she's picked up and put back into her chair by no other than Sarah, who flash a smile at the trio before walking over to Negi. Speaking of Negi, he's looking every where for Evangeline, but only to no result. Finally, he decides to just does the easiest thing… asks. "Is Evangeline-san here…?"

"Ah, Negi-kun, Eva-chan isn't here." Haruna says, being the big mouth of the class.

"Eh? Does any one know where she is?" Negi asks as he scans his student for any clue.

"I think she's taking today off for some thing…" Ako says with a guilty face while the other also flashes either an apologetic grin or a guilty one. "Probably a flu?"

"Oh, soka…" 'There's no way a vampire mage like her takes a day off from a simple flu…' Negi thought to himself as he strokes his chin, completely obvious to Sarah's snigger. 'Maybe she's skipping class again. Or is it because some side effect of her curse? I know, I'll just go look for her!'

Just then, Asuna slide into the room as the bell ring, panting as sweat drip down her fore head. "I… made it…"

"RIGHT! I'LL DO THAT!" Negi suddenly exclaims, scaring the stuffing off of most students before charging out the door at full speed, leaving behind an astonished class soon turned into a party as their home room teacher is no where in sight.

"Hmm… I guess he doesn't know…" Sarah says with a shrug and is just about to leave when she felt someone behind her. Looking back, she spots Sayo looking at her with curiosity with a finger in her mouth and her face screaming 'WHAT THE HELL'. "Ah, ohayo Sayo-chan!"

"Ah… ano… where is Negi-sensei going…?" Sayo asks as a blush creep onto her face for no reason apparently.

"Why, to Evangeline's of course." Sarah answered second naturally before flashing Sayo a smile and caught the ghost off guard with the next question. "Wanna come?"

"Eh… me?" Sayo asks pointing a finger to herself.

"Daijobou. Negi-sama isn't here anyway, may as well. Besides, I'm supposed to watch over him." Sarah says before walking over to Asuna, who's discussing something with an over excited Konoka. "I'm going after the brat. Look after the class or something… and please, try not to get yourself squatting again… Come on Sayo!" With that, Sarah is down the hall with a ghost floating behind her as curiosity blossoms within her.

"Eh…? Who's Sayo?" Asuna asks Konoka, who just shrug before she opens her mouth to continue the discussions… however…

"WHAT IN KAMI'S NAME ARE YOU ALL DOING?" A voice boomed, silencing the room effectively as Nina, in all his scary glory, is standing at the door glaring at everyone… and scaring the wits out of Nodoka, who looks ready to faint. "WHERE IS NEGI-SENSEI?"

"Ah… he's gone looking for Evangeline-san…" Ayaka says with panic, trying very hard not to show it as Nina's glasses flash over to her.

"THAT'S NO REASON TO PARTY!" Reaching out, Nina grab a hold of Ayaka, who 'eep' and puts her into a squatting position. "Now then… EVERYONE SQUAT!"

"EEEK!" The whole class shrikes before they were massacred… I mean dominated by no other than the 'Demon Teacher' Nina…

> > > > > > > > > >

"Hmm… according to the class rooster, Evangeline-san doesn't live in the dorm… hmm… academy district… Sakura Gaokai… 4th district 29… AH! This must be… the… place…?" Negi says as he stares at the beautiful wood cabin. It's about two stories tall with two flights of stairs to climb. Near the first flight of stairs is a mail box completely made of wood. There is a back door and a side door. A bath house (I think) next to the main building. An empty platform for whatever it is that she does on it and a balcony on the second floor.

"Nice place huh?" A voice asks from behind the child. Turning around, Negi finds Sarah with a small smile looking at the cabin before glance at her charge with half-lid eyes. "If I remember correctly, your dad help built it… or is it the head master? Oh well." Shrugging, Sarah walks forward towards the beautiful cabin with an invisible ghost floating a feet behind her. Negi soon snapped out of whatever trance he is in and hurry to the door. "Yosh… Knock… knock… Is anyone home…?"

Silence… that's what greeted Negi… while, you can always count the crickets… Knocking again, Negi finds that the result is the same. Trying the handle and finding it unlocked, the child teacher decides to try his luck. Opening the door a little, he peers into the crack. "Hello? Anyone here? This is weird…" Opening the door fully, Negi is greeted with a large table with all sorts of stuff on it. There are potions, beakers, one or two stuffed animals, knife, well heck, you name it and it'll probably be on them. Sweat dropping, Negi laughs sheepishly as Sarah glance around the room with a frown. "Hmm… she's still sort of sloppy…"

Looking around the room, Negi finds himself attracted to the room. There are all sorts of decorations. There are things hanging from the ceiling. Stuff animals lined the couch as plants cover up the more empty spots. There are also puppets, crosses, and parts littered here and there. But what really caught his attention is the style of the decoration. "Awawa… what a fancy interior… just what kind of vampire is she?" Negi gapes at all the expensive furniture inside the cabin.

"Who is it?" A voice asks, causing Negi to jump three feet into the air before spinning around to finds Chachamaru in a maid outfit carrying a tray. "Ah, good morning Negi-sensei, do you have some business with master?"

"AH, Chachamaru-san… you scared me…" Negi says as he pants a bit from the fright.

"Hey, Chacha-chan, what's that?" Sarah asks pointing at the bag sitting on the trait next to a tea cup. Sayo also peers over her shoulder to look at the bag with no label what so ever.

"Ah, this is just a basic flu medicine for master…" Chachamaru says with a small nod. "Ah… um… sorry about last time…" Chachamaru says with a small bow.

"AAH! No, no, I'm sorry about it…" Negi says with a blush and also gives a apologetic bow. "Um… where is Evangeline-san?"

"Master is ill…" Chachamaru says as she heads for the stairs built into the wall.

"That excuse again?" Negi asks with a small frown, completely missing the figure that just walked down the stair. Sarah, however, did. "You really don't look so good…"

"What? Can't an immortal like me catch a flu?" Evangeline says with a smirk before looking over to the kid. "You got some guts coming here… although it might even impress me if you come alone… My magic is weak… but that doesn't mean I can't strangle someone like you to death." Evangeline spat as she sits on the reel for the stair and grin a dark grin at the gaping kid.

"E-E-EVANGELINE-SAN!"

"Ah, master, you shouldn't be out of bed…" Chachamaru says as she puts her tray down on the table. Just then, Negi held out an envelope towards Evangeline, who looks at it with curiosity and amusement. "What is that?"

"I-it's a letter of challenge!" Negi exclaims unfolding the envelope and shows the letter to the vampire. "PLEASE DUEL WITH ME ONE MORE TIME!" Just then, his serious facet drop as he gone into his 'teacher mode.' "A-and further more… please stop skipping class!" At that, Sarah face fault as Evangeline just look at him like he's crazy. "Y-you won't graduate like this…"

'So much for a heroic scene…' Sarah thought to herself with a mental sign. Meanwhile, Sayo is patting her asking if she's alright.

"Like I said… even if I attend your class, it doesn't make a difference because I'm cursed…" Evangeline says and resist very hard to rolls her eyes as Negi pout at her. Lifting up a hand, a small magic ball starts to appear on her hand. "Well, screw that. You said you want to settle things right here and right now? Oh well, I don't mind kick your ass one more time…"

Unwrapping his staff, Negi held it in front of him in a defensive position. "Very well… but if I win, you'll have to attend EVERY class!"

Mean while, Sayo is gaping at the two with eyes wider than saucers. Patting at Sarah again, she asks the ever so innocent question. "A-ano… are they mages…?"

"Well, no offense, but it's very obvious." Sarah says with a smile before looking back at the two. "But you shouldn't be surprised… after all, you're 'here' and I'm real…"

Nodding once, Sayo look back at the two as they continue to charge their magic power. Evangeline puts a foot on the reeling ready to pounce as Negi stiffen ready for the attack to come… except it never did, as the child-vampire faint right there and fall off the reel. The next thing they know, Sarah is there holding her like a baby sister and feeling her forehead with her own. "Yup, she's not well at all."

"Eh… what… So she's really sick?" Negi asks as Sarah scoops Evangeline into her arms and walks up the stairs.

"Yea, if it's just the curse, she'll only be stuck here… but that idiot decides to temper with some other stuff. Now, she's just an ordinary child that doesn't age thanks to having the body of a vampire…" Sarah says pausing on the stair to look down at the sleeping girl. "Who am I kidding… she's not really ordinary at all…" Sarah whispers before continuing her trip up the stairs. "Chachamaru…" Sarah calls down from the second floor as she tucks Evangeline in.

"Hai Sarah-san…" Chachamaru says as she looks at the entrance to the second floor.

"Go to that contact and get the medicine… and do you still remember the formula?"

"Hai… down to the last detail..." Chachamaru answers with a nod before disappearing inside a room, only to reappear in casual street cloth. "I'll go fetch them… how many do you acquire?"

"Probably two pot's worth." Sarah says walking back down with out her jacket. "I'll go get the ingredients. You just go get the medicine. It's useful, but it'll be faster with the formula."

"Ano… what are you two talking about?" Negi asks as he stares at the two. Sayo also has a confused expression, except only Sarah can see it.

"Chachamaru is going to go to a contact with some very effective medicine while I'm going to get ingredient for a formula… or you can call it a chicken soup if you like." Sarah says with a shrug. Walking over to Negi, she kneels in front of him to look at him eye leveled and puts on a serious expression. "Can you talk care of her for a while?"

"Ah… um… WAIT! M-MEEEEEE!" Answers the child teacher as he glance nervously up the stairs.

"Well, you are a teacher… and master is your student…" Chachamaru reasoned pointing one finger at the shell shocked child.

"Ah… I think I can…" Negi answers with two dots as his eyes and his mouth hanging open.

"Good." Sarah says with a satisfied smile before standing up and ruffling Negi's hair. Looking in Sayo's direction, she mouthed 'stay with him' before marching out the door with Chachamaru in toll, unaware of the events that are to happen in a few short hours…

> > > > > > > > > >

"Hmm… it's really hard to believe that she's really sick…" Negi says to himself as he looks down at the face of Evangeline AK McDowell, which is covered in sweat with a blush, probably from a fever. Scanning the room one more time, he's surprised to say that it's plain, but also beautiful at the same time. The bed is probably queen size or maybe even king. The cover is made of silk, so is the blanket under the cover and the pillow looks to be made of cotton. The bed's skeleton is made from what looks like expensive oak wood as well as much of the furniture inside the room. A few windows are located around the room. Puppets and stuffed animals also appear here and there, but what really catches his attention is the one that looks like a miniature Chachamaru, only with a smile. Its eyes continue to stare at him unblinking, sending a shiver down his spin. "Must be my imagination… still… T-T-T-THIS IS BAD! MY HEALING MAGIC ONLY HEALS WOUNDS!" Negi exclaims with desperate tears streaming down his face.

Looking back down, Negi finds a frown on Evangeline's unmarked face as the blush appears more noticeable now. Just to make sure that it's a fever, Negi reach a hand over and touch her forehead, only to retreat with a shocked expression. "HOLY! SHE'S BURNING UP!" Glancing around frantically, Negi snatches a cup on a night stand next to the bed, pours some water in it, and hold it over Evangeline, unsure of what to do. Decision made, he snakes an arm under her head, lifts it up, tilts it a bit, and moves the cup over to her soft lips… but none of them disappears inside the mouth. "AWAWA! SHE'S NOT DRINKING IT… HOW ABOUT TEA? COLA…" Gulping, the child teacher moves his finger over to her lip, "p-please just take a little bite…"

Meanwhile, Sayo is observing all this with a small smile, hovering above the bed, glancing at the clock every now and then; wondering when is the two coming back. Looking back down, her eyes widen as she sees Negi panicking due to Evangeline twisting and turning mumbling something like hot and kicks off the blanket. 'The heat… that's right! She's having a fever…' But as she watches Negi pulls the seal over the window, Evangeline crawl into a ball and mumbles "Cold…" Taking a closer look, Sayo finds her pajamas complete drench with sweat. 'Ah… that's not good…'

"Ah… what should I do? What do I do!" Negi asks himself with tears pouring down his face as he runs around a small wooden table while clenching his head. Tilting her head, Sayo looks from the child teacher to the sleeping vampire and back again, unsure of what she should do. Well, option one, she can use telekinesis and help change her clothing… and suffer a fainted ten year old child with foams coming out of his mouth… nope… Option two: tell the child to help change the clothing… but that'll probably let him have a free treat or something… nope… Option three, do nothing… but that'll seems cruel, so that's out of the window… Oh, that's right, option four, tell the child to do it, but blind fold himself while she guides him by 'whispering' next to his ear… 'Yea… that'll do! But will it work…?'

Floating over to the still panicking child, Sayo, with some difficulty, whispered for him to stop running and calm down. The effect is that the child stops running around, but is still panicking. Surprising that it really worked, Sayo has a triumphant smile on. 'Well,' Sayo thought to herself, 'at least it's some progress…' Going over to his ear again, she blushes a little before doing what she had decided was the best option. "Go over there, help her changer her clothing…" By that, Negi blushes a shade of red that shamed a tomato as his eyes almost pops out of his sockets. "Not before you blind fold yourself…" Sayo hastily added before he can have a nose bleed at all the things that's probably going through his mind. Nodding to himself, Negi walks out the room and comes back with a new pair of pajamas and a blind fold. Signing, Sayo decides that the hardest part had just started.

Floating over to the child, she giggles at the determination on his face as he blind folds himself. Slowly but surely, he walks over to where the vampire is lying and prepare to set to work… err… that's a problem… "Okay, first, unbutton her shirt…" Sayo whispers and watch as Negi blushes again and starts to reach forward slowly… "Almost there… almost… a little more… got them!" With that, Negi starts with the top bottom and slowly works his way down the roll. Once all of them are out, he lifts Evangeline a little and slips the shirt off her. Sayo decides that since he can't see, she might as well help a bit. Concentrating on the new shirt, Sayo welled it to inch a little closer to the child's hand as he realms the night stand for it. Grabbing it, Negi unfolds it and also slowly starts to inch closer to the vampire again.

"Okay… slowly, grab her left arm, slip it through… lift her up a little and slip the other part over… now her right arm… bring the buttons together… no! Move the left roll up one… that's right… now… slowly…" Sayo instructed as she watches Negi slowly but accurately buttons up Evangeline's new pajamas shirt. 'Now… the pants…' The ghost girl thought with dread. 'Hope I'm not corrupting him…'

And so, the process went on. It takes a little longer than they expected, but it's done none the less. And by then, Sayo is pretty much exhausted… well, let's just say if she can collapse right there and then, she'll have done it with out another thought. 'Never know that's this tiring…'

"Alright… that's done and she looks like she's fine now…" Negi says as he pulls the blanket back over the girl's body. Walking away from the bed a few steps, Negi suddenly drop to his knees, startling a certain ghost, whose eyes popped wide open. Sayo watch as Negi also drop onto his hands so now that he's on all four with sweat dripping down his head. Flying over to make sure he didn't catch the flu or something, Sayo sweat drop as she sees the horrified expression on Negi's face. "I-It's a good thing I blind folded myself… S-Sarah-san will k-kill me if I didn't… THANK KAMI FOR THE GUIDANCE!" Negi exclaims with tears of appreciation pouring out like two water falls as a spot light suddenly shone on him out of nowhere and he clasps his hands together as sparks appears around his body. Sayo just stares at him before smiling to herself. "Still, this has really gotten out of hand…" Negi says as he walks back to Evangeline and sits back down with his staff in his lap. "I'm here to confront her… but I ended up taking care of her… That's ironic… a child taking care of a vampire who's probably a hundred years old." Negi chuckle to himself before a thought pops into his head. "How did she become a vampire anyway…" Looking at her exposed neck, he finds it perfectly smooth and spotless. 'Well, she definitely didn't get bitten… A 10 year old girl who turns herself into a vampire…? Strange… I wonder how old she really is…'

Standing up again Negi starts to pace around the room with his staff in hand while a thoughtful frown mark his face. Sayo watch him in curiosity as the frown grows deeper. 'She said that she was cursed 15 years ago and was stuck here… hmm… why did my father cursed her? And what is their relationship… and why does she know Sarah-san and why is she afraid of her…?

Flashback

"YOU!" Evangeline says as she suddenly falls on her butt and scoots as far away as possible. "Y-Y-Y-Y-Y-Y-Y-YOU! WHAT DO YOU WANT?"

End Flashback

'That just doesn't make sense… I know Sarah-san can be scary… but Evangeline-san acts as if she knows her…' Negi muse to himself.

Flashback

Sarah watch as Negi tries to stop the two, only to get knocked into the wall near the door. She chuckles to herself as she watches once again of her young charge's futile attempt. "He's quite amusing isn't he? E-va-chan!"

"Don't call me that… and why did you decide to come?" A short, blonde girl with emerald green eyes asks.

"He is part of the reason… the other is because I have a feeling that something is going to happen here…" Sarah explains. Turning slightly, she watches Evangeline flip through another page of a novel. "How's it like to get stuck here for fifteen years?"

"Boring… I still can't believe he takes you in too…"

"Ah… while, I'm sort of special for a vampire… almost like you and yet unlike you…" Sarah says with a wink before she stands up. "Well, the bell rang so ja ne!"

Unknown to them, a certain child heard all the conversation…

End Flashback

'Hmm… I wonder if there are old photos…' Negi thought as he is about to leave the room. However, a certain something stopped him.

"N-Nagi…" Evangeline whispers as she turns to her side. Negi raises one of his eye brow and walks closer to listen to what she has to say… however, things went hay-wire the moment he leans down. Faster than he can blink, Evangeline snake her arms around Negi's neck, pulled him over, and the next second cuddle her head into the crook of his neck as the child stiffen. Sayo watches and have to bite her fist to hold in her giggle. Right now, Negi is lying on the left side of the bed, stiff as a board with his staff clench tightly in his right hand. Evangeline has her arm under his neck and one holding his chest as she rests her head in the crook of his neck. One leg was draped over his stomach as if he's a giant teddy bear. A content smile played on her lips as a blush also etches across her face. "Nagi…"

'AWAWAWAWA! THIS IS BAD! VERY BAD!' Negi thought as his heart races at a hundred miles per hour. It's a wonder that he's not having a heart attack. 'Wait… I wonder…' Silently, Negi chants an incantation as his staff starts to give off a soft glow. Sayo gasps as the staff starts to float on the bed with a white aura surrounding it. 'Beautiful…' The ghost thought as she admires the staff.

'I feel kinda bad… but she might know something about my father…' With that thought, the kid continues his spell that would puts him into her dreams. Unaware of the situation, Evangeline snuggles a little closer to the warmth, causing Negi to gulp before finishing the last of his spell. The next thing Sayo knew, both of them are sleeping peacefully with the staff once again in Negi's hand. "I wish I can use a camera… that'll be so cute!" The ghost squeals before floating over to the chair, planting herself down in the chair next to the bed, and watches the duo enjoy something that she can no longer do…

> > > > > > > > > >

In the dream…

Negi opens his eyes to find himself completely naked, inside a dark forest somewhere in the world with a camp fire in the middle of a clearing. Floating over, the kid's jaw drops open to find the most unusual sight ever. Right in the middle of the clearly, Sarah is sitting with her back to a tree, a small content smile on her face with Evangeline sitting in her lap staring into the fire. His father, the Thousand Master, is poking at the fire with a stick as some fish cooks on it. Trying to get a better look, Negi finds that to his disappointment that he can't as the fire isn't bright enough to light his father's face. 'This is…'

"Hey, Eva, why are you still following me…?" Nagi speaks up, breaking the comfortable silence. Evangeline look up from the fire at stare at Nagi as he continues to poke at the fire. "It's been at least three months now that you'd been following me… why won't you give up already?"

"Yada…" Evangeline answers with a bit of stubbornness in her voice. Turning her head to the side, she lays it on Sarah's left shoulder. "I don't want to…"

Signing, the Thousand Master stops poking the fire and looks straight into Evangeline's face. "You can't keep following me forever…"

"Well, I can damn well try…"

"Aw, quit it you two, ruining the evening with that topic again." Sarah says playfully as she smiles her small smile at Nagi. "But he's right Eva-chan… you can't follow him forever…"

"I'd followed you for quite a while…" Eva says as she glance behind her for some support.

"That's different…" Sarah says with her trademark small smile.

"It's not fair…" Evangeline whispers with some tears gathering at her eyes. "It's not fair that you get to spent time with him and I don't… It's not fair that he doesn't mind your presence… And it's not fair you and you alone have his love…"

Sarah stares at the child-vampire with large eyes before burst into laughter, causing the other two companions to look at her with confusion written all over their faces. After a few minutes, Sarah's laughter died down a bit. "S-sorry… haha… it's just… oh god. Ehehe, you thought I love him?" Sarah grins as Evangeline looks away from her. "Fufufu… Actually, I do, but only as a little brother. I know him for a very long time now… besides, I'm sorts of in debt with his father…" Negi's ears perk up at that. 'Huh…? Grandpa never mentioned anything about knowing her…' "Also," Sarah continues with a genuine smile, "I'm his partner (Even if by accident…). The others already left to do what ever they do and Gatou went to kingdom come." At that, Negi can see a far away look on Sarah's face. "Hmm… I heard that Konoe has a daughter now… Konoka is it? Must be a pretty angle…" Sarah says putting a finger on her lower lips. "Hmm… maybe I should pay a surprised visit. Still, don't worry, I'm not going to become his wife or something… beside, he already has a little girl at home." Sarah says resting her chin on Evangeline's head.

A small smile creeps onto the child-vampire's face as she snuggles closer into Sarah's body. "Well," Nagi says with a smile, "that didn't go so bad. And Sarah's right, I already have little Nekane at home… as soon as we find the answer we're looking for, I'm happy to just go home. And guess what?" Nagi asks, catching the other two's confused stare. "If you two really want to, I guess you can come and live with us… but under one condition."

"And that is…?" Evangeline asks knowing that it's directed at her and also knowing what he's about to say. Sarah rolls her eyes with an amused smile.

Pointing a finger at the blonde girl, Nagi puts on his most serious face (which Negi still couldn't see) and a serious voice. "You got to stop doing evil deeds…"

"Of course I will." Evangeline says batting her eye lashes. The trace of sarcasm is so thick Negi can practically taste it. Sarah chuckles with her eyes closed. "But I might just do it for you…" Evangeline whispered.

SNAP! The sound of what sounds like a branch snapping cause the joy in the air to disappear as all three wonderers glance around. Negi also looks around in confusion, but something tells him that things are about to get ugly… and they do. In the matter of seconds, the camp fire was put out by Nagi, who snatches his staff, and holds it in a defensive position.

"Adeat…" Sarah whispers as she activates her artifact. But due to the 'death' of the camp fire, Negi didn't get a chance to have a good look at it. Evangeline also pulls her hand and something come flying over to her, again, it's too dark to see. The next second, they all vanish and the sound of metal against metal and the cry of pain fill the forest…

"AAH! WHAT'S GOING ON?" Negi asks no one in particular, however, the surroundings suddenly went white, blinding him for a split second. Once he opens his eyes again, he finds three figures standing on what looks like the coast off a beach. The first figure is a woman of about 19 or 20, very busty, and holding a puppet with knifes in its hands. The woman has blonde hair and emerald green eyes, wearing a black dress, a pair of black, fingerless gloves that goes all the way to her shoulders, a chocker with belts going down her body and between her breasts, and finally, a somewhat revealing dress as it is made of see-through silk. 'T-t-that must be Evangeline-san…' Negi thought before going over to the next figure.

This figure is no other than Sarah D McDocland. She's wearing a cloak that conceals what's inside it, but an uncertain frown is marking her youthful face. 'If that's Sarah-san… then that one would be…' Looking over to the third figure, Negi was sure that whoever it is, is his father. But he still couldn't get a clear view because Nagi has a hood over his head and has his back turned to Evangeline.

"I've finally caught up with you, Thousand Master… the man who commands the thousand spells… So here you were in a Far East Island Kingdom…" Evangeline says before a nasty smirk appears on her face. "Today is the day I'll take you down… and make you mine!"

"The Doll Master… Dark Evangelist… the 'Maga Nosferatu' the Undying Mage… Evangeline, you sure are indeed a vampire to be afraid of…" Nagi turn around, "Just how many people have you sunk your poisonous fangs into to maintain your power and that beautiful appearance? And on top of that, you're targeting me? I know not of your plans but…"

'Ah…!' Negi exclaims to himself as he watches the scene unfold. As Nagi lifted his head up a bit, Negi caught a few more features of his father's face. He is young, and handsome. His eyes are brownish like his and his hair is also reddish like his. "…Give it up… You ain't gonna beat me. No matter how many times we get it on…"

'T-This is the Thousand Master? M-MY FATHER 15 YEARS AGO? Wow, he's cool…' Negi thought to himself with excitement bubbling off of him. Just then, he went into some sort of frenzy and waved his arms around wildly. 'THIS IS SO AWESOME! JUST LIKE I IMAGING HIM TO BE! JUST WHAT YOU EXPECT OF THE STRONGEST MAGE OF THEM ALL!'

"Eva…" Sarah says, but flinches as Evangeline sent her a glare.

"Stay out of this…" The vampire hisses before turning back to Nagi. "Let's go Chachazero!"

"HAI MASTER!" The doll speaks, causing Negi's jaw to drop and his eyes widen to saucer size. 'WAAAAAHH! IT TALKED! Then that means…' Just then, Evangeline and the doll charged and both switch into an offensive stance. "HAHAHAHAHA! YOU'RE JUST A SIMPLE MAGE NOW! WHAT CAN YOU DO AGAINST ME?" Evangeline exclaims with a ferocious grin.

"Hmm… now where is it…?" Nagi asks himself as he pats the ground with his foot. The Undying Mage narrows her eyes before taking a leap. "HA! TOO LATE! YOU'RE MINE NOW!"

'AWAWAWA! DAD!' Negi mentally shouts as his eyes widen in fear. Just then, the unthinkable happens. When Evangeline's foot touches the ground, the sand gave way and down she goes into a pit full of water. "SPLASH! AHH? WHAT THE!" Looking around her, Evangeline can't believe what she sees. "WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THIS?"

"It's a pit trap!" Chachazero says as she floats on the surface, only to get snapped at by her master. "I CAN SEE THAT!" Just then, something starts to splash into the water. Looking up, Evangeline's eyes widen as she sees the Thousand Master holding a large sack that says 'Onion and Garlic' "NANI! IYAAANN! I HATE ONION AND GARLIC!" Evangeline whines as Nagi laughs a maniac laugh. Sarah stares at the scene with her mouth hanging open and her eyes wide with sweat drops on the side of her head.

"MUHAHAHAHAHAHA! I GOT YOUR WEAKNESS NOW!" Nagi exclaims before plugging his staff into the pit trap and starts to stir the water. "MUAHHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

"IIIEEE! S-STOP IT!" Evangeline whines with tears jetting out of her eyes.

"MUHAHAHA! NEVER!"

"Calm down master!" Chachazero says patting her master in the arm a few times. "AAAUU!" The Undying Mage exclaims and crawls up as she poofs into small cloud of smoke to reveal a ten year old girl. "AAH! MASTER'S ILLUSION IS BROKEN!"

"MUAHAHAHAHA! WHAT WOULD PEOPLE SAY IF THEY FOUND OUT THAT THE INFAMOUS VAMPIRE IS A JUST TINY BRAT?" Nagi laugh out loud only to have some garlic hitting his face as a heavily blushing Evangeline shakes a fist at him. "SHUT UP YOU BIG JERK!" Sarah continue to stare dumbfounded as Negi sweat drops as he watches the vampire continue to make whining voices and moans as his father dumps more onion and garlic while laughing. 'Ah… um…'

"Y-Y-Y-YOU CHEATER!" Evangeline accuses as tears gathers at the corner of her eyes. "Y… YOU'RE THE THOUSAND MASTER RIGHT? THEN FIGHT ME WITH SPELLS AND MAGIC!" The girl pouts as she sends a glare at the still laughing Nagi.

"Actually, I rather not." Nagi says as he pulls the hood down, exposing all of his head to his son. "The truth is, I only mastered 5 or 6 spells. It's 'cause I suck at studying. Actually, I dropped out of magic school. HA! HOW ABOUT NOW? YA SCARED YET!" Nagi exclaims with a snarl as Evangeline gasp and Negi's jaw hits the floor. "W-W-W-W-W-WHAT!" It's comical to know that Negi and Evangeline exclaims at the same time. Looking over at Sarah, the Undying Mage's eyes can only widen even more as Sarah just chuckles sheepishly. "Well… I tried to get him to study… but… well… ehehe…"

Deciding that the time is now, the girl vampire asks the question that's being plaguing her mind for a long time now. "T-THOUSAND MASTER! WHAT IS IT ABOUT ME THAT YOU DON'T LIKE?"

"Hey, I told you before. I'm not interested in little girls." Nagi answers with a huge smile.

"SO IT'S AGE THEN? WELL I'M OVER A HUNDRED YEARS OLD!" The girl vampire exclaims happily pointing a finger to herself.

"Then you're an old hag like Sarah!" Nagi exclaims loudly, earning him a smack on the head as Evangeline face fault into the water. "DON'T SAY OLD HAG!" Sarah and Evangeline exclaims at the same giving off the same pout and the same glare.

"Master, calm down!" Chachazero says as she stares at her furious master.

"How about it? You stop chasing me and I'll forgive you for all the evil deeds you done?" Nagi asks hopefully. "Beside, I already have a wife and a child!"

"I DON'T WANNA!" The child-vampire exclaims crossing her arms and putting on a cute pout if it were in other situation.

"Oh yeah? Well then I guess there's nothing more I can do…" Thousand Master's eyes suddenly start to glow a deadly light. "I'm going to put a curse on you and turn you into a form that you'll never do evil again…"

"That's a bit harsh isn't it…?" Sarah asks as she walks over to Nagi's other side. Just then, her partner starts to emit a large amount of magic. "Ah…"

"…..Un… W-what's with this magic…" The child-vampire asks as fear starts to surface. Thinking that it's time to get out of there, she starts to panic. "S-S-S-S-STOP IT YOU IDIOT! THERE'S NO NEED TO USE A SPELL AS POWERFUL AS THAT! RIGHT SARAH?" Looking over, Evangeline's jaw drop as she finds Sarah all tied up with her eyes wider than saucers while Nagi plants a foot on the rope and pulls to make sure it's tight enough. "WAAAAHHH!"

"Now you can't help her! Hmm, I remember the gramps at Mahora says he needed a warden…" Nagi says as he flips open a book, ignoring the muffled cry from a tied down Sarah behind him. "Hmm… Manman-eroero… wow, this spell is long…"

"KYAAAAAHHH! GET ME OUT OF HERE! SOMEONE HELP ME!" The child-vampire exclaims as tears jets out of her eyes.

"MASTER IS IN A PINCH!" Chachazero says waving her arms around, being completely useless when she's probably the most needed.

"S-S-S-STOP IT! YOU'RE TERRIBLE THOUSAND MASTER!" The girl vampire says ready to burst into tears. Nagi happens to finishes the spell right then. "AH! NO! NONONONONONO! PLEASE DON'T DO THIS! YOU CAN'T DO THIS! PLEASE! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH PLEASE DON'T DO THIS!"

"SORRY! INFERUS SCHOLASTICUS… ATTENDANCE PERQITION!" Nagi says completing his spell and shoots Evangeline with an energy beam that's coming out of his staff.

"IYAAAAAAAAANNNN-"

> > > > > > > > > >

Real world…

"-AAAHH!" Evangeline shot up into a sitting position as sweat drips down her forehead, panting for breath. "I… it's that dream again… huh…?" Looking over, she finds Negi asleep on her bed 'No wonder the pillow is so soft… wait… what did I…'. A blush suddenly appears on her face and she's about to scream when a hand cover her mouth. Looking over with wide eyes, she meets Sarah's smiling face and immediately calm down. "What in the world is he doing on my bed?"

"Hmm… from what I remember, you have a tendency to cuddle something when you sleep…" Sarah grins as Evangeline's face starts to burn again. "Besides, you guys look so cute together…" Pulling out an instant camera and hands Evangeline a picture, Sarah sits back and enjoys as the girl vampire's face turn from shock to horror to extremely red with biddy eyes. (APH: Content of picture will be revealed after the big battle!)

Looking pass Sarah, the vampire's eyes settles on the white haired ghost starting at her with wide eyes. Looking down at herself, she finds her pajamas different. "And he did then honor of changing you… don't worry, he blind folded himself with some help…" Sarah says as she sees Evangeline turns even redder and looks ready to explode again.

"…He's taking care of me… tch, he's asking to be killed…" Evangeline says, but unknown to her, her heart disagrees with her and a small appreciative smile appears on her lips.

"Oh? What's the smile about?" Sarah teases with a grin as Evangeline's face burns up again. "I-I-I-I-I-I don't know what you're talking about…!"

"Oh sure you don't." Sarah says rolling her eyes before reaching behind her and produces a steaming bowl. "Here, drink this. It's your favorite chicken soup made by yours truly."

"Arigatou…" Evangeline says accepting the soup and taking a sip from it. "Mm… still wonderful as always…"

"Well, it is made with many different roots and spice… and of course, the usual chicken." Sarah says before realizing what she's just done. "I'm probably finally is going insane…"

"Took you long enough to notice…" Evangeline says playfully before wincing as Sarah flick her forehead and pout a playful pout at her.

"So…" Sarah starts as she went all serious, dropping the playful atmosphere almost instantly from years of practice.

"So what?"

"What now?"

"What… oh…" The girl looks over to the sleeping child and moves a hand through his hair and her eyes soften a great deal. "I don't know… he looks so much like his father…" Taking her hand away, she finishes her soup and sets it down on her night stand. "I think I won't take his blood after all… but that doesn't mean I'm not targeting him." At that, Sarah raises an eye brow. "I already take some of three other's blood, so that makes four. I'm going to test him… see if he's worthy of really being his son…"

"I see…" Sarah says before narrowing her eyes. "And what about the four that you sunk your teeth into after you're done?"

"Don't worry, they won't be harmed… I'm just going to use them as a part of the test. If he can't even get pass them, then he seriously needs to work harder. And I'll release them once it's all done." Just then, Negi stirred, as he slowly opens his eyes. Evangeline flash a wicked grin at Sarah before putting on a fake mask of calmness.

"Ah… umm… WAAAH! DID I FALL ASLEEP?" Negi asks before glancing around to see a calm Evangeline and a glaring Sarah (fake glare…) "WAAAAH! IT'S NOT WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE!" The child exclaims as he waves his arms around like a mad man. Sarah's glare drop as a smile appears on her lips. "Oh… phew… um… ARE YOU ALL RIGHT EVANGELINE-SAN?" Negi exclaims after looking at Evangeline, who is regarding him with a calm face. Sarah is trying very hard not to grin while Sayo looks with curiosity floating behind Sarah.

"Yeah, I'm fine now… I'm going to let you go just for today… I'm all better now so get out of here before I change my mind."

"Ah… AHAHA! OF COURSE! NOW THAT YOU'RE ALL BETTER!" Negi exclaims before looking at his challenge letter. Putting that in his pocket, he jumps off the bed and scratches his head nervously. "Ah… well then… Ahaha…"

"Huh?" Looking over at Sarah for answer at the strange behavior, she only gets more confused as Sarah just blinks then starts to snicker. Just then, something hit her hard. "Hey you…" Negi suddenly stiffens when he's about to be out of the room.

'CRAPCRAPCRAPCRAP!'

"Why were you holding your staff while you're sleeping…?" Evangeline asks as the corner of her mouth starts to twitch badly while trying to conceal the smile that's threatening to break loose. "Masaka… you… you little… YOU SAW MY DREAM DIDN'T YOU?" The girl vampire exclaims already knowing the answer when she sense something wrong with her dream. She doesn't mind really, but that's just for the fun of it. Now Sarah is openly laughing while Sayo just looks at the trio with confusion.

> > > > > > > > > >

"WAAAAAH! I'M SORRY!" Negi shouts so loud that Chachamaru, who's almost up the first set of stairs to her master's cabin stops in her track.

"WHAT DID YOU SEE? HOW MUCH DID YOU SEE?" Her master's voice shouts as mad laughter comes from inside the house, courtesy of Sarah as Chachamaru guesses.

"NOT A LOT! MAYBE A LOT? SERIOUSLY A LOT?" Negi shouts and soon realize his mistake.

"YOU LIAR! Y-YOU JUST LIKE YOUR BASTARD OF A FATHER (Which is a good thing…)! I'M GOING TO KILL YOU NOW AFTER ALL!" Evangeline screams and soon enough the sound of banging and crashing emits from the wood cabin as Sarah's laughter grow harder.

"AAAAHHH! SARAH-SAN! SAVE ME!"

"Ah… master sounds all better now… Thanks goodness…" Chachamaru says unaware of why things are the way they are now. (APH: Well, who cares when your master is all well an stuff?)

> > > > > > > > > >

As the chaos inside the house continues, Sayo is staring with wide eyes as things fly pass her, literally. Floating over to Sarah, she pokes the caretaker a few times to get her attention. "CRASH! Ano… Sarah-san…?"

"HAHAHA… Y… EHEHE… BAM! YES...? PHE-AHAHAHAHA!" The caretaker asks holding her stomach then ducks as a book comes flying over her head.

"Why are Negi-sensei and Evangeline-san…?" Sayo asks and turn her head to see a vase fly through her head.

"AHAHA… I… IT'S SWISH!… HAHA… NOTHING… UHAHAHA… R-R-REALLY… SNAP! HEHEHAHAHA!"

Shrugging, Sayo decides to just sit back and enjoy the 'little' show as a content smile appears on her face. 'You seriously don't see this every day…' CRUNCH! "AAAAAAHH! MY BUTT! MY BUTT!"

"MUHAHAHAHAHA! DIE!"

> > > > > > > > > >

Warning! Randomness!

"That was fun…" Evangeline says as she picks up a stack of books and sets it back onto the shelf. A small content smile plays on her lips the whole time she bends down to pick things up.

"Well, good thing he ran out of the house before you murdered him…" Sarah says pulling out a knife imbedded into the wall. "And I mean literally murder him…"

"Gomen… I went a little overboard …" The girl says with an apologetic grin.

"Master, where do I put this?" Chachamaru asks showing Evangeline Chachazero.

"I'M NOT THIS! I'M CHACHAZERO!" The doll screams as steams puff out of her wooden ears. "YOU'RE LUCKY THAT CAN'T MOVE! IF I COULD YOU'D WISH THAT YOU'RE NEVER BORN!" If the doll could wave her arms now, she'd do it with a passion. "DAMN YOU MASTER! WHY DO YOU HAVE TO BE CURSED!"

Flashback…

"GAAAH! PUT ME DOWN MASTER! MASTER! NOOOOOO!" Chachazero screams as she was sent flying towards a panicking child, who dodges just in time and Chachazero is sent face first into Sarah's stomach, who continues to laugh despite the pain the doll caused…

Eng Flashback…

"Hmm, just hang her over there. I need to clean her joints anyway." Evangeline says with a sheepish smile. "By the way… do you remember what happens after Nagi untied you?"

"You mean the time when he cursed you?" Sarah asks. Receiving a nod, she starts to giggle. "Oh yeah… I practically make sure he couldn't sit down for one week."

"Hmm… how did it go again?" Eva asks with a grin as she relives the fun memory.

"Let's see… it all started when…"

> > > > > > > > > >

Flashback…

"IYAAAAAAAAAANNNN!" Evangeline screams as the beam hits her and vaporized all the water in the pit trap, but the target was unharmed.

"Now that it's done, I think I can clean up now." Nagi says before walking over to Sarah, who looks ready to bitch at him the moment he releases her. "Err… I guess you can wait…"

"-Sniff- Y-you're horrible… -sniff- You jerk!" Evangeline says as she looks like she's about to cry.

"Aw come on! You're not going to start crying are you?" Nagi asks as he suddenly seems to panic. "I can't stand crying girls… please don't cry…"

"I'm not going to cry… -sniff- I'm going to make your life hell!" Grabbing one of Chachazero's knifes, she throws it at Sarah, cutting the bond, sits back, crosses her arms, and pouts.

"Ah… you do know that you just bought a one way ticket to hell for me…?" Nagi asks as he starts to feel the immense killing intent radiating off a certain ancient vampire.

"DUH!" Evangeline exclaims and resumes her pout.

"Eva… sits back and relaxes…" The Thousand Master's face becomes flour white as he hears Sarah's voice. "I'm going to make sure you die slowly…"

"Don't kill him… just mutilate him enough to suffer but not enough to die…" Evangeline says as she continues to pout and glare at the now shaking man.

"My… pleasure…"

"You know what; I think I remember there's a meeting I need to attend to… so…um…ah bye…?" Nagi says as he starts too slowly inch away from Sarah, who'd, activates her artifact and has two five feet long katanas in her hands. And no, people, the blades are five feet long (and I'll let you guys guess what her artifact is and its ability.).

"…Bye…" Sarah says before she dashes at Nagi with the intention to kill.

"EEEEEKK!" The Thousand Master shrieks like a girl and starts to run around the pit trap with Sarah chasing him. "COME ON! SARAH-CHAN! DON'T DO THIS! AHH! PUT THOSE THINGS DOWN! GAAAHH! Close one… PUT THAT GIANT SHIRINKEN AWAY!" The man screams as he desperately dodges all the attacks coming from a bitchy vampire with fire in her eyes.

"Sorry, BUT YOU SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT OF THIS THE MOMENT YOU DECIDED TO TIE ME UP!" The reddish-blonde vampire screams switching her weapons to a single giant broad sword that's eight feet long on the blade, a least a foot wide, and its handle is about two feet long. "DIE!"

"KYAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!" Nagi screams like a girl as he starts to receive one of the worst beatings of his life.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Evangeline laugh as she watches the man she loves gets the stuffing smacked out of him. 'Now that reminds me of something… if he says his wife is scarier than Sarah… then… I DON'T WANT TO KNOW!'

End Flashback…

> > > > > > > > > >

"Yup… the happy memory..." Sarah signs with a dreamy expression as Evangeline shudders thanking god that it's not her. "Well, I should get going. It's getting late…"

"Well, thanks again for the soup." Evangeline says before continuing to clean her house.

"No problem. Sayo, let's go." With that, Sarah left the house with a ghost in navy blue sailor uniform following her.

"Master, who is she talking to?" Chachamaru asks because all her sensors say that there were only her, her master, and Sarah in the cabin.

"Nothing Chachamaru… absolutely nothing…"

END RANDOMNESS!

> > > > > > > > > >

APH: Well, that's that. And the voting is now down. It's decided that Sayo will be meeting Negi and the others Manga style. And… sorry about earlier… (Bow to a row of people in casts with death glares directing at author) and sorry Sayo… they won't be joining you soon…

Sayo: DAMN!

MX: Wow, I don't remember her using cuss… but I love them that way.

Kazumi: (Smacks MX with her wheelchair) I already told you NO!

APH: Anyway. Hope you guys enjoy the story. The artifact for Sarah is already under construction. But one thing is clear; it's not a weapon but a clothing item with extreme power… so think carefully. If the clue isn't enough, then too bad, 'cause you guys won't know the truth until the School Trip Arc. MUHAHAHAHHHAHAHAH-

Asuna: (Blush) EEEEEEHHH!

Asuna: What the… HEY! (Chase APH down the stage)

Eva: Yup, you have to do that more often… (Holds the picture out of reach)

Negi: HEY! (Jumps for the picture)

Random observer #1: …ano… where are we exactly?

Random observer #2: the loony bin my friend… (Pat RO1's shoulder) The loony bin.
