If this is a series where you can see girls' intimate areas, how are you going to hide them in your story?
Game2002: First, Negima may have lots of fanservice, but it really never goes as far as to show intimate areas. They're always covered up by random stuffs like their hairs (for long haired girls) or leaves/papers/things that just happen to be flying through the air, or through shading techniques. As for my story, there are no illustrations, so you can't see anything.

Mystery-guy: Are the government still after the Armageddon?
Game2002: You can never grasp what they are thinking…

Chapter 6
I'm not giving up! I'll get my revenge on you!



Cackletta had been defeated by the combined efforts of Negi and Mario. Mario said to the child teacher, "We sure make a great-a team!"

"You gave him the finishing blow, so you're really the one that ended this," Negi told him.

"But I probably couldn't-a have done eet without-a your help too. Nice work!"

"Negi sensei!" said the four girls. Negi turned to them and saw that there were wearing clothes made of leaves.

"Where'd you get those from?" he asked.

Red walked up and said, "Saur made them using his own leaves and vines. You can't expect them to be running around wearing nothing, right?" He turned to his Pokemon and called them back into their Pokeballs one by one. "All right; job well done! Take a rest now!"

Fawful quickly ran up to the fallen Cackletta who barely looked alive anymore and said to her, "Fear not, O Great Cackletta! Look, I am now sucking you inside my headgear!" And the mouthpiece started inhaling air and Cackletta's body slowly turned into a gaseous state and entered into Fawful's headgear and she took the form of a purple smoke with red eyes inside the headgear.

"Thanks a lot, Fawful!" Cackletta said. "You annoying pests! Don't think you have defeated me already!"

"Hey! That guy is still up!" Red said.

"I still have the spirit in my hand and very soon I will find the body! I'm not going to give up here so easily, so wait till I get my revenge on you! Slime Sisters!"

"Yes, boss!" The Slime Sisters jumped in front of Fawful and gathered together and melted into a large puddle of slime.

"Farewell, fink rats! The day will come when I spit on your life that is nothing but a caricature drawn by a kid who is stupid!" Fawful said, and then he jumped into the puddle of slime and fell through it as it were a pool of water, and then the puddle turned smaller and smaller until it disappeared.

"They've escaped…" Nodoka said.

"At-a least everyone eez safe now," Mario said.

"Yeah, that's all that matters. Are you girls all right?" Negi asked them.

"We're all fine!" Kazumi said. "It's thanks to you!"

"You're so cool, sensei-aru!" Ku Fei said. "You used everything I taught you very well too-aru!"

"Thank you, sensei… I was very scared, but you came and helped us…" Nodoka said.

Suddenly, a loud voice called out to them, "Hey brat!!! Where are you?!"

"That sounds like Asuna," Yue pointed out. They turned to the entrance and saw Asuna and Chamo showing up over there, panting tiredly from all those running.

"Made it in time… I hope…" Asuna said.

"Asuna! Chamo! What are you two doing here?!" Negi said.

"Sorry, bro… Sis forced me to spill the beans…" Chamo said. "You know how scary she can get once she is serious, so I had to save my own skin…"

"Hey brat! Why didn't you tell me about this?!" Asuna shouted out from where she is standing.

Then unknown to her, a slimy blue puddle appeared behind her and Fawful poked his head out from it. "Is this one okay, O Great Cackletta?" he said quietly.

"Anyone will do!" Cackletta said. "Now!" And then she gushed right out from the mouthpiece of the headgear.

Mario noticed the two villains behind Asuna and quickly shouted to her, "Watch outta, girl!"

"What?" But before Asuna could realize this, the smoke of Cackletta engulfed her body. "What the?! What's this?! Yaaa!!"

"Asuna!" Negi gasped.

Chamo quickly ran away as the smoke fully engulfed Asuna. She desperately tried to shake off the smoke, but it slowly forced open her mouth and then entered into her body from there. Once the smoke entered her body, she fell onto her knees and coughed. "What was that… just now…?" she cried.

Negi ran up to her in concern and said, "Asuna, are you all right?"

Suddenly, Asuna felt a massive pain inside her head and she held her hands against it and started screaming, "YAAAAAAAAAAA!!!! MY HEAD HURTS!!!!"

"Asuna!"

Asuna struggled around violently and accidentally smacked Negi away with one arm and continued to scream from the massive pain in her head. Slowly, her voice started to become distorted and rougher and rougher until it was no longer her own voice. She opened her eyes and looked at Negi, who was shocked to see that her eye was no longer one side blue and one side green like always, but rather, it was one side red and one side pink. As if she was no longer suffering, Asuna stood up and dusted her clothes and said in a voice that shocked everyone. It was the voice of Cackletta! "Geheheh! I've gotten myself a new body!" she said. "I'm not sure if there is anything good about this body, but it feels more comfortable to be able to move around freely!"

"Asuna's voice… changed…?" Kazumi said in disbelief

"Mamamia?! What-a happened?!" Mario gasped.

"Asuna!" Negi gasped. "You villain! What have you done to her?!"

"I just wanted to have a new body as soon as possible," Cackletta replied. "So I took over hers."

"How dare you?! Let go of her at once!"

"Sorry, but I'm not planning to leave this body anytime soon! Consider this a payback for the mess that you've done to me! Geheheheh!"

"O Great Cackletta," Fawful said. "We should be taking our leave."

"Geheheheh! Don't get too relaxed just yet, brat! I'm going to get my revenge sooner or later, as well as those people called the Smashers! Just you wait!"

After this, Fawful sank back into the puddle and Cackletta jumped back into it and sank too. Negi tried to go after them, but the puddle disappeared and he hit the floor instead. "No! Bring Asuna back!" he shouted while pounding the floor rapidly. "Give her back!"

"Calm down, bro!" Chamo said to him. "There's nothing we can do now!

-

Back at the parking lot, the other Smashers and Gyde had all returned to the bus, but they couldn't find Mario and Red. "Everyone is here except for those two," Gyde said. "I wonder where they could be."

"I called Mario several times on the phone but he didn't respond," Luigi said.

"Why not call again?" Yoshi suggested him.

"Fine then." Luigi got out the phone and dialed Mario's number and waited for a reply, and this time it did. "Mario! Finally you've answered your phone! Where are you? Oh, you're on your way here now?" Then he saw Mario and the others approaching from across the place and waved to them.

"Hey Mario! Where have you been?" Captain Falcon said to him. "And you too, Red."

"Hey, it's the child teacher and his students from this morning," Marth said. "What are they doing with them?"

Mario walked up to them and said, "Sorry for da wait. We had something serious to take-a care of."

G&W noticed the girls wearing the leaf clothes and asked, "Did you guys have a Hawaiian dance or something? Why dressed up like that?"

"Okay… I'll explain everything to you guys," Red said, and thus everything was explained to them afterwards. The Smashers were all without doubt surprised to hear this.

"What?! All these happened and we didn't know it at all?!" CF said in shock.

"I can't believe that villain would go as far as this…" Marth said.

"Now one of my student's bodies has been possessed by her…" Negi said sadly. "I must rescue Asuna no matter what!"

"We understand your feeling, kid," CF said to him, giving him a pat on the shoulder. "Don't worry; we will try our best to help you in this matter."

"Thanks, but this has nothing to do with you all in the first place… I don't think…"

"Don't say that," Marth said to him. "We have been getting ourselves into things that do not concern us at all several times already, and yet we always ended up being the ones to solve everything. This one will be no different to us."

"If you have any problem, you can count on us!" Kirby said.

"It's great that a group of strong people is helping us, sensei-aru!" Ku Fei said to Negi.

"I'm sure we can rescue Asuna in no time if we use their help," Yue said to him.

"Thanks for the comfort, everyone…" Negi said. "You guys… Thank you for being on my side… I appreciate your help!"

"All right, it's good that you all are kind-hearted people who want to help this boy," Gyde said. "But I think we should save all our energy for tomorrow morning. Can we all go back to the hotel now?"

"Let us go then!" Dedede said. "I cannot wait to lie down in my royal suite room!"

"Suite?" Kirby said curiously.

"His majesty is the only one here who lives in a royal suite," MK explained.

-

After returning to the hotel, Negi went over to Asuna's room and told her two roommates about this, and they were obviously shocked to hear this.

"That's horrible!" Konoka said. "Asuna is possessed by an evil spirit?!"

"Why didn't you tell us about it?" Setsuna said to Negi. "If we had been there to help you, this probably wouldn't happen!"

"The letter told for me to go alone and I was afraid on what would happen to the four that she kidnapped if I hadn't listened," Negi said in a sad voice.

"I hope Asuna will be all right…" Konoka said, placing her hand on his shoulder gently.

"I hope so…"

"So what do you plan to do?" Setunsa asked him.

"The villain said he will come after me again, so if she does come the second time, I must try and free Asuna from her!"

"Those people are willing to help you too, right?" Konoka asked. "I'm sure things will be a lot easier with their help. They're very strong, aren't they?"

"I only teamed up with one of them during the fight. He's very strong, but he claims that his friends are way stronger than him. I hope this is true."

Konoka looked at the clock and said, "It's getting late. Time to sleep now! Can you sleep alone? You can sleep here if you feel lonely."

"Thanks for the offer, but I can sleep by myself. I've got something to keep myself accompanied."

"What is it?"

"I brought a large pillow with a full body picture of my sister printed on it to keep myself accompanied when I sleep. She made it for me."

"You make yourself look like a hardcore anime otaku that way…" Setsuna said, trying to imagine a scene of Negi sleeping and holding onto the said pillow tightly as if it was a person. "Creepy…"

-

Dedede and MK were walking down the hallway to return to their room. Dedede yawned and said, "What a tiring day… I sure had fun out there, though I still feel bad about losing to Kirby in the Tabasco drinking contest."

As he approached his room, Kirby walked up to him and patted him on the side saying, "It was ketchup." And then he walked away.

A question mark appeared on Dedede's head and he said, "What was that about?" MK, however, giggled silently to himself as he knew what Kirby was talking about just now.

-

A few hours later in the middle of the night, Dedede shot up from his bed and said loudly, "Ketchup?! I've been had!!! No wonder he had no problem gulping down that bottle of Tabasco! That bastard Kirby!"

"You just noticed?" MK asked from his bed without turning around to reveal his face, though you all should know what he looks like underneath the mask already.

-

The next morning, Negi woke up was changing his clothes when there was a knock on the door. "Good morning, sir!" said the voice behind the door. "There is a package delivered to you!"

"Oh? Wait a minute!" Negi replied. After he was done dressing, he went to the door to open it and the bellboy gave him a small rectangular package.

"What is it, bro?" Chamo asked him. "Who is it from?"

Negi looked at the surface of the package and was surprised to see that the sender was from Cackletta. "It's from the sorceress yesterday!" He quickly unwrapped the package and found out that it was a device that resembled a Nintendo DS inside. "Uh?"

"Hey, that looks like a game console," Chamo pointed out.

-

Negi called over the neighbors on both sides of his room to come over to see this together. When they gathered, Negi flipped open the DS-like machine and pressed the only button that was there, and then the top screen turned on to show Asuna.

"Greetings, everyone!" she said in Cackletta's voice. "As I have said yesterday, I haven't given up on trying to get my hands on a drop of your blood yet. Listen up! If you value the body of your student which I am in right now, I want you to come over to my hideout in Dread Woods. I don't care how many people come with you, so be here before the end of the day! Here is a map of where my hideout is."

The lower screen turned on to show the map of Lycia. It showed the location of the place called Dread Woods and a circle was marked on the part of the woods where the hideout is.

"I will only repeat this message once. You can keep this thing afterwards in order to consult on its map," Cackletta continued. "Get your butt here in a jiffy before I do something nasty! Geheheheh! By the way, address me as Asuletta from now on." After saying this, the top screen turned off but the map remained on the bottom screen.

"Dread Woods? At least we know where we must go next," Setsuna said. "So are you going there, Negi sensei?"

"I'm going! I'm going to rescue Asuna and settle this matter once and for all!" he replied with determination.

"That's the correct-a thing to say!" Mario said. "We'll go with you!"

"Let's tell the others about this then!" Parry said.

-

Soon afterwards, this was told to the Smashers and they decided to head over to Dread Woods as fast as possible to settle this matter. Setsuna and Kotaro had decided to go along with Negi, and among the Smashers, Captain Falcon, Marth, Red, Mario, Wario, and ROB were going with them for support.

"So that will be all of us, right?" CF asked, looking at his group.

"Wait a second please," MK said as he walked over to them. "The king suggested me to give you a hand in this matter."

"That's nice of him. The more help the better!"

"Actually I think the team is complete as it is with me in here already," Wario said.

"Don't start acting proud like Falco," Marth told him.

Gyde appeared to them and said, "Okay, so you all are going to Dread Woods, right? That place is quite a dangerous place in Lycia. It is a forest filled with wild animals and hazards of nature. Many people do not like to go there unless they are hardcore adventurers."

"That would be the perfect place for someone like her to hide if you ask me," Marth said.

"Yeah, I understand what you say. You may lose your lives over there, so you have to be careful. Please rethink this properly again on if you really want to go there."

"I'm going! I cannot allow my student to be used by a villain like her!" Negi said. "I'm ready to face any danger to rescue Asuna!"

"Heh! It sounds more fun if it is dangerous!" Kotaro said. "I'm looking forward to this!"

"Dangerous or not, we're not afraid," CF said. "We've faced all sorts of danger in the past and escaped alive. This will be no different!"

"I can't wait to clobber someone already!" Wario said, punching his palm.

"Okay, so it looks like that you all are determined to go. I'll take you guys there," Gyde said. "I'm just glad that I am able to be of help. Let's go then!"

Just as they were leaving, several voices called out to Negi and he turned around to see the rest of his class coming over to him. "You all…" Negi said. "What are you doing here?"

"You're going to rescue Asuna, right?" Ayaka said to him. "I know that I was never too fond of her… But even so, I concern about her safety. Please save her, Negi sensei. Please bring her back safely!"

"Don't worry; Ayaka! I will bring her back safely!"

The rest of the girls also gave their words of encouragement to him.

"You can do it, Negi sensei!"

"Asuna will be all right!"

"I believe in you!"

"Thanks," Negi said. "I will not disappoint everyone!"

Konoka walked up to Setsuna and said, "Setchan, please give Negi sensei all your support, and be careful out there yourself too!"

"I will, Ojou-sama," she replied. "I will do my best!"

"All right; let's get moving!" CF said. "It's not good to keep girls waiting, so you've got to get this done in a jiffy, boy!"

-

Asuletta stepped out from a capsule-like machine and approached Fawful who was typing away on a computer. "So what have you analyzed, Fawful?" Asuletta asked him. "Is there anything special about this body?"

"O Great Asuletta, my discoveries are so shocking that it is like fish out of water!" Fawful replied.

"Oh really? Tell me about this. I already had this feeling that this body isn't normal the moment I entered it. Let me see what you've discovered."

Fawful moved out of the chair to let her sit and Asuletta looked at the results shown on the monitor. "I see… This body has the natural ability to cancel the effects of magic spells…" she said quietly to herself with interest. "And using magical energies to enhance physical capabilities… Interesting! Looks like this new body is worth it after all! And then there's this." She reached into her shirt pocket and got out a card that had the picture of Asuna herself holding a large sword.

"Do you know what on that earth that thingamajig is?" Fawful asked.

"This is a Pactio card," she replied. "Western mage, as you know, all have a partner with them to protect them while they chant incantations for magic. In order to become partners, a contract has to be made first and then this card will be created as a proof of contract. It is called a Pactio. With this card, the partner will be able to summon magical artifacts by saying a certain phrase." She inspected the card for a few seconds and then said, "Adeat!" The moment she did, the card released a bright flash and then a large paper fan popped up in her hand. "Hmm?" She looked at the fan and then looked at the card. "Wait a minute… It's a sword on the card, but why a fan in my hand?"

-

Some hours passed and the bus had arrived at the area outside Dread Woods. "Here we are, Dread Woods," Gyde said. "The terrain up ahead is not suited for vehicles, so you will have to walk there on foot yourself."

"Don't-a worry," Mario said. "Leave eet to uz from here now."

The good guys got off the bus and took a look at the tall and crowded trees in front of them. "Looks creepy in there…" Red said.

"If you're scared, you can stay behind," Wario said to him.

"I never said anything about being scared!"

"There's no going back now, everyone!" Negi said. "Now that we are here, we must go in there!"

"Right, we've rode the bus for almost two hours to come here, so there's no going back," CF said. "Let us go in there like real men and settle this matter! Everyone is ready, right?"

"More than ready," Marth said.

"I'm sorry that I can only take you as far as this place," Gyde said. "Honestly saying… I don't have the guts to go in there…"

"You've done a lot by bringing us here already," MK said to him. "Now leave everything afterwards to us. We will come back alive for sure."

"C'mon! Let's-a go!" Mario said.

-

It was pretty dark within the woods and there were odd sounds coming from all over the place. This creepy atmosphere would normally give chills down the spine of most people, but for this certain group, it was no big deal. Negi kept on looking at the map to find out where the hideout is. "We shouldn't be too far from where it is already," he said. "The hideout should be around here."

"Watch out, Negi sensei…" Setunsa warned him. "There is bound to be danger all over the place."

"Bring on those dangers then!" Wario said. "I'll show them that I am the only danger around here!"

"You like to talk big, don't you?" Kotaro said to him.

"Talk big? I'm always serious with what I say! And what's with those cat ears? It's not Halloween yet."

"These are real ears for you record. And I'm a dog demon!"

Suddenly, there was a rustling sound and the leaves of a nearby tree startled rustling. "There's something up there," ROB pointed out.

"Oh really?" CF said. He walked up the tree and gave it a kick so strong that the entire tree shook, and a rather thick snake immediately crashed down from the tree next to him. "That's what it is."

"What a large snake!" Red said in disbelief.

The snake got up and gave CF a glare and stuck out his tongue and hissed. It then opened its mouth and lunged forward.

BIG mistake…

The snake fell down with large bumps on its head and a swollen eye while CF dusted his hand and returned to the others. "Let's get going and not waste our time," he said.

"Yeah, I agree," Marth said. Then there was a rustle coming from the bush behind him, and then a wolf suddenly leaped out for the kill.

Another BIG mistake…

The Smashers continued on their way while the wolf fell onto the floor with slash marks all over its body, not to mention broken teeth. Setsuna looked back at the two fallen predators and said, "Man… These guys are scary…"

-

Back within the hideout, Fawful went up to Asuletta who was busy with something and said to him, "O Great Asuletta! I have the news that can be of the goodness or the badness to report to you! It appears that the brat who you desire and the Smashers who you loath have arrived at this in one piece like a perfect cake taken out from the oven."

"So they've come, eh?" she said. "That's very good of them to be able to brave the dangers and wild animals of Dread Woods. Normal people would've become food for the beasts already, geheheh!"

-

The good guys finally arrived at a clearing in the woods and they saw a lake that had an island in the middle of it and on the island was a tower that reached very high into the sky.

The Smashers walked up to the bank of the lake and CF said to a beaten up gorilla that he was dragging behind him, "This is the tower that you were pointing too, right?" The gorilla nodded in response. "Thanks for the guide then. The next time you try to harm us again you're dead meat!" He let go the gorilla and it quickly scurried back into the woods as fast as it could.

"You can almost feel pity for all those animals that we've beaten up just to get here…" Negi said.

Back in the woods, you could see several wild animals such as leopards, wild boars, giant spiders, giant worms, and crocodiles all beaten up badly.

"But anyway…" He turned to look at the tower and said, "This is the place…"

"Are you sure this is the place shown on the map?" Meta-Knight asked Negi.

"Yes, the map shows that is it is on this lake." Negi looked around and saw that there was a thin strip of land leading to that island. "And we can cross over to the tower from there."

Asuletta looked out from the tower's window and watched them cross the strip of land and said, "Geheheh! They're here at last! Let us give them a warm welcome when they come in!"

The Smashers finally made it to the island that the tower was on and looked up to try and see the top of the tower. "It looks pretty tall," MK said. "I would say it's about ten floors tall."

ROB looked into the entrance and scanned the inside using his special computer eyes. "It seems that there is danger inside. To walk in like this would be a risk."

"That's-a to be expected," Mario said. "Towers that-a look like-a theez always have dangers to prevent-a heroes from progressing forward so easily."

"But like that is going to stop us!" CF said. "C'mon, let's go in and show them that nothing can stop us!"

"Right! We have to rescue Asuna no matter!" Negi said.

As they were going to go inside, Wario called out to them, "Wait a minute! I think I have a better idea other than going inside to face the dangers."

"What's your idea?" Red asked him.

"I was wondering… It is a cliché that a villain's hideout tends to collapse after the villain is defeated due to the fight being too rough, isn't it?"

"Yeah… I think-a so," Mario said.

"So how about this? Instead of trying to defeat the villain to make the tower collapse, why don't we just tear down the tower here and right now?"


TO BE CONTINUED

Going by the same steps of Superstar Saga, Asuletta finds herself a new body after her first defeat. In that game, it's Bowser, but in my story, it's Asuna!

And is Wario's plan a good idea? You'll see!


GAME2002 EXTRA SHOW

"Happy birthday!" said all the members of the Kong family.

"Aye, I have to admit that this is indeed a great birthday party!" Cranky Kong said to his family members. "I have lived a long and ripe age and I am very proud of it! Birthdays are what I look forward to the most!"

"Congratulations, dad!" DK said to him.

"Ah, how it has changed throughout the years!" Cranky continued. "Time sure flows by in a second and before you know it; I am already growing a beard and standing with my children and grandchildren. There have been many ups and downs in life, but it was well worth it in the end, though not as much as it used to be. I remember back in my days when I was a youngster, we didn't need to have all those electronics and such to be happy. The jungle out there was the best place for entertainment; unlike know where the only forms of entertainment are arcades, department stores, and amusement parks. The whole jungle was a giant playground to me and I could do whatever I want in it. It was also my toilet, but that's another thing. Ah, the toys that we play back then were all made by ourselves unlike people nowadays buying them from the store. Kids back then have very good dexterity and brains because they always had to create their own form of entertainment."

-

One and a half hour later…

Cranky continued his olden days talk and everyone had already fallen asleep. "When can we eat the cake…?" Diddy asked drowsily.

"TV shows back then were the best! Blah blah blah…" Cranky continued.

It's bound to be a very long birthday party…
