Chisame was a loner who kept to herself until recently. She had a hidden double life as a net idol. She got mixed up with this group because of her ten year old professor. She is infamous with computers and her hacking and information gathering abilities are tremendous. During her magic transformation, she changes into her alter ego net idol persona Chiu. Chisame is curious to what extent her powers can grow to beyond the net besides her child like staff and the mice.
"Where is my apprentice? And where is what's her face with her book?" demanded Eva to those who showed up.
The four girls looked at each other scared to death to answer right away.
"If anyone knows where boya is, I demand to know," said Eva angrily.
Konoka spoke up and said, "Negi-kun woke up very early this morning. He said he was going to Library Island."
Yue calmly said, "Nodoka-san was not at the library counter this morning as scheduled. We assume she was with him at Library Island. I even checked twice before coming here."
"Nodoka-san and Negi-sensei together ALL RIGHT," Haruna chimed in ecstatically.
Eva shot Haruna an evil look.
Chisame just shook her head in disbelief over Nodoka and Negi being together.
"Nodoka-san is a few years older then him. She was afraid of men before he showed up. Why him of all the boys here at Mahora to fall for. Still do not see what is so charming about this kid professor," Chisame said to herself in disgust.
"Fine if the brat wants to miss this lecture then so be it. He will pay dearly the next time I see him," said a furious blond vampire.
"But master you should not be that hard on him. Maybe he had a reason to not attend this afternoon," said the newly designed Chachamaru Rakuso.
"SILENCE!" yelled Eva.
"Yes master," Chachamaru said.
All four novices of magic yelled "ADEAT" as they magically transformed into their specific abilities.
"We will study a basic application of ice magic. Like freezing something or putting down a slick ice patch as you try to escape from something if you have time," said Eva.
"First try to freeze a cup then will see about the ice patch," said Eva calmly.
Chachamaru placed cups up on little tables in front of the four magi in training.
"Will people see us out here?" said Konoka nervously.
"No I put a barrier around here to be safe. Not many come around or dare to," said Eva with a devilish smile.
"Aw you like us since we dare to," said Konoka giggling.
"I will only repeat this spell once. So make sure you listen," as Eva spoke dismissing Konoka's remark.
"Unda quod aer fio gelu. Congelo is iam," clamored Eva as she frozen a wood stick she was holding with the freezing spell.
All four trainees recited "unda quod aer fio gelu. Congelo is iam" and tried to freeze the cup. All four failed the first attempt and then the next few attempts.
Eva sighed and walked into her cabin and laid on her bed to read. Chachamaru watched over the trainees.
Konoka becoming frustrated said, "Ahhh...I cannot do this."
Haruna with a confused look, "Are we saying it right?"
Yue calmly said, "Yes we are saying it right. Just believe in your abilities."
Chisame snickered and said, "Yeah right our abilities."
The other three looked at Chisame with killing intent.
"All right I will believe. Just do not look at me like that you girls," said a scared Chisame.
Konoka closed her eyes and thought of winter snow and recited the frozen spell. She directed her wand toward the cup. It began to freeze halfway.
Chachamaru smiled.
Konoka giggled, "I did it, I did it."
Yue thought of a snowy mountain and recited the frozen spell. She directed her wand toward the cup as it frozen three quarters of the way.
Yue gleamed, "So that is how you do it."
Haruna would rather paint frost on the cup then this spell, but she thought up a romantic skiing trip as she put her wand toward her cup as it frozen a quarter of the way.
Haruna smirked.
It was Chisame's turn as her staff began to glow. She thought of Chiu's winter outfit and the pure white snow falling around her. She directed her staff toward the cup as it frozen completely.
Chisame boasted, "I frozen the cup completely. I do not believe it."
Eva walked outside to the four girls and looked at the cups.
Eva responded to seeing the cups, "I see three of you need more practice. I want to see better results tomorrow or no ice patch spell forever."
All you heard was a simultaneous "Aww!"
"The purpose of this exercise was to give you an idea of what ice magic is. It was not what you saw when you tried to freeze the cup. It was the feeling inside you that you could freeze it," explained Eva.
"Emotions affect spells and their power as well as the ability of the magi. Boya has a lot of ability but lacks certain emotions at times due to his age and experience. I on the other hand do not lack the emotions or abilities," calmly said by Eva-chan.
"So when you fought Negi-kun's father, your emotions were scrambled is why you lost?" questioned Yue.
Eva was taken a back a bit after Yue's question, "No it was not my emotions, it was the damn Nagi's trap is all."
Chachamaru spoked, "But master, Chachazero explained that when you were in love with Nagi, it tended to cloud your judgment and focus."
"I WAS NOT IN LOVE WITH NEGI, I MEAN NAGI," yelled a flustered Eva who blushed as she gleamed a hatred look toward Chachamaru.
The four girls and the robot looked at each other and said, "Negi?"
"I said Nagi, his father," Eva retorted.
Eva dismissed the girls for the rest of the day of training. She wanted them to learn the freeze spell as well as be expected to perfect the other spells she taught the girls before learning a new spell. The girls said, "ABEAT" as they changed back to their normal clothes.
Haruna and Yue went to investigate the missing bookworm at Library Island. Konoka desired to find Setsuna and tell her all about today. And Chisame just wanted to be left alone and considered to do some more pictures for her web page.
Konaka found See-chan aka Setsuna and Asuna practicing their sword techniques on each other in the dojo. Konoka just watched without saying a word as she was amazed at how fast Asuna became with her abilities of the sword.
Setsuna Sakurazaki, a white wing half-demon, who grew up with Konoka Konoe. She serves to protect Konoka and now Negi as a pactio partner. A master of Kyoto Shinmei-ryu style of fighting.
Setsuna said firmly, "Asuna-san, will go one more round then we take a break for the day."
"Aw do we have to? I was just getting warmed up," smirked Asuna.
Setsuna swiped with an overhead downward motion as Asuna countered with a parry above her. Setsuna recoiled her sword and tried a ten o'clock to five o'clock slice at Asuna. Asuna sidestep Setsuna's attack. Asuna spun around and tried the same slice on Setsuna. Setsuna dodged and rolled away. Setsuna turned to face Asuna. Both girls ran directly at each other as they slashed and parried each other as they met.
"Getting better Asuna-san," said an out of breath Setsuna.
"Thanks!" replied a tired Asuna.
At that moment, both Setsuna and Asuna realized they were being watched. They looked over to see Konoka smiling.
"That was great you guys," said Konoka clapping.
"Well it was not much to see. Just a basic fighting move and defenses," exclaimed Setsuna.
"It was impressive nevertheless See-chan," said a proud Konoka.
Asuna asked, "How was training today with Eva-chan? And what did she do to Negi-kun this time?"
Konoka said, "Well we were taught a basic freezing spell today. Did not do so well. As far as Negi-kun, he was not there. Eva-chan was not happy that he missed her lecture."
"Where was he?" asked Setsuna diplomatically.
"Nobody knows. Early this morning he went to Library Island," replied Konoka.
"Of course he forgot the time I bet. He is always on a one track mind in doing something other then what he should be doing," said Asuna.
"Well Nodoka-san was missing as well from training," said Konoka quietly.
"Aw great he dragged Nodoka-san with him into trouble probably," said a frustrated Asuna.
"Do not know about that Asuna-san, but they are alone together if they are together," said a giggling Konoka.
"Yeah poor Nodoka-san," said a laughing Asuna.
"This is not funny you guys. This is not like Negi-kun to miss an appointment with Eva-chan," replied Setsuna.
"True enough but it is almost dinner time. If he is not back until then, get Kaede-san and Fei Ku-san to join us in finding the brat," said Asuna plainly.
"You forget Kaede-san is in the mountains training," said Setsuna.
"How about Makie-san?" asked Konoka.
"No we do not need more trouble," said a smiling Asuna.
"Poor Makie-san," said a giggling Konoka.
"Bath then dinner is the plan for now," squawked Setsuna.
