And new chapter for Mage Brothers! Honestly, I'm kind of sad that more people haven't read this fic, but it has been awhile since Negima was really popular so I should have expected this. However, I'm going to continue this because I love Negima! And it's in the Oppositeverse!
I don't own Negima just my OCs

Chapter 2

Nio sighed as he sat on the plane next to Negi who was sleeping soundly. They would be landing in Japan any moment now. Their new lives would begin now. Was he ready? Honestly, he really wasn't. While he could handle spending time with his brother like they did back in Wales, the fact that most of that time would be spent watching over a class of teenagers who probably would not show that much respect for them was not something he was looking forward to.

Oh how he wished that he could be doing nearly everything else. And it was even worse that he already missed Nekane and Anya. He really is a little kid...Nio sighed before pulling out a small spell book. Opening it to the page that he had marked, he began reading through various different spells. While his talent at casting might not be the greatest, he still had a vast storage of spells sealed away in his head from his constant reading that he planned on trying out when he finally became a better mage.

As he read, he noticed several adults staring at Negi and himself with a confused look on their faces. They were probably wondering why two children were on the plane by themselves. Looking to the other side, he saw what looked like the silhouettes of several buildings begin to form in the distance. It looks like they were about to land in Japan. Thank goodness. Being crammed for hours in this plane was not his idea for fun. No more planes. From now on, he is only flying on staffs.

Placing his book back into his small bag. He reached over and gently shook Negi who just muttered in his sleep before snuggling into the cushion on the chair while muttering 'Older sister.' Nio just sighed at this. He and Negi always slept in the same bed with Nekane back home, but Nio never had a problem sleeping by himself afterwards. Negi though...if they were in sleeping in the same room with a girl who even remotely looked like Nekane, he would end up crawling into her bed and snuggling with her without waking up at all. Anya usually was jealous about any girl that this happened to, but she would never admit it.

After a couple of pushes and pokes to the face, Negi finally began to wake up. "Huh? What's going on?" Negi questioned Nio who chuckled as he reached under the seat and pulled out Negi's small bag. Tossing it into his brother's lap, he looked back over at him and smiled.

"We're about to land Big Brother. Wake up, we need to get out as soon as possible so we can grab our bags," Nio told Negi who just nodded while staring at him before following forward and dozing back off. Groaning under his breath, Nio decided to use one of the small spells that he learned. Bringing his finger up, he poked Negi's cheek and sent a jolt through his body causing him to yelp and shoot up.

"Ow! Dang it, Nio, you know I hate when you do that!" Negi whined with small tears in his eyes while Nio just smirked back at him while relaxing in the chair as he felt the plane begin to make its descent.

After a couple of minutes, the plane landed on the runway and in a matter of moments, the passengers began to disembark. Politely letting the other passengers get off first, the brothers followed after them and went over to grab their large backpacks as they came out of the baggage carousel. Placing them on their backs, the two boys checked their staffs to make sure they were in tact from the flight before heading on out to the train station that would lead them to the academy.

Stepping out of the airport, the two boys began to marvel at the glorious sight of the city. Their small town was nowhere near this grand. Awing at everything, the two continued on their way before bumping into a teen girl wearing a school uniform. Realizing what happened, Negi quickly apologized while Nio stood further back and just bowed in apology.

"I'm so sorry miss! We weren't watching our step!" Negi apologized to the girl who just looked back at them before smiling and ruffling Negi's hair which made the boy sprout a large blush on his face.

"It's okay. I'm heading to school so I should be watching where I'm going anyway," the girl replied before winking at the two and running off. The two looked at each before thinking and deciding to follow her. Thanks to the height advantage that the girl had on them, they had to run after her to keep up, but they were able to arrive at the train station right as it arrived.

Looking up at the sign, Nio sighed in relief as he realized that this was the train that they needed to be on. "Okay Big Brother, lets go. This heads to Mahora Junior High," Nio told Negi only to pause as he realized just how many girls were getting on. Freezing in place as his shyness began to take over, Negi sighed while shaking his head before grabbing his brother's hand and dragging him onto the train. Ignoring the girls who began to give the boys curious looks, Negi found a spot where the two boys could fit.

After sighing in relief at the fact that they were able to make it onto the train, Negi began to snap his fingers to get Nio to unfreeze.

"Come on Nio! Snap out of it! You are going to have to get used to this now that we are here!" Negi told Nio who just gulped and stayed frozen. Negi began shaking his brother by the shoulders which still did not earn him a response from his frozen brother. Groaning at the fact that his brother was unresponsive, he was about to grab his ear to attempt to snap him out of it only for the train to start up which caused a sudden shift. Gasping as it caught him offguard, Negi fell backwards against a girl while Nio did the same.

Realizing what happened, Nio finally snapped out of his frozen state and jumped back right as Negi did the same. The girls just giggled at the embarrassed looks on the boys. Sighing to themselves, they grabbed onto the pole and held on so there wouldn't be a repeat of what just happened.

"So Nio, are you ready for our assignments to begin?" Negi questioned Nio who kept glancing around to make sure he wasn't touching anyone before nodding his head in response to his brother's question.

"Yeah Big Brother. Now remember, we have to meet up with Takamichi so he can escort us to the Headmaster. After that, you begin your first class. Are you ready for that? I mean, you will be teaching a class of teenagers," Nio questioned his older brother who began to scratch the back of his head while chuckling awkwardly.

"I'm kind of nervous about that, but I'm sure I can get through it with you by my side. Plus, I'm sure they will have another teacher in the class with me during the lesson since it will be the first one. Hopefully, I can make a good impression today," Negi told Nio who just laughed slightly while patting his brother's back.

Holding onto the pole, the boys waited around ten minutes before feeling the train stop. Waiting until every girl ran out, the two immediately sped out right as the doors began to close. Sighing in relief, they gasped at how large this academy was before shaking their heads. They can always see it later. Nodding to themselves, they immediately began running towards the entrance. The fact that they had on bags that were nearly the same size as their bodies...made it even more impressive that they were keeping up with the other students.

As they ran, Negi pulled out a small pocket watch under his robe. "Oh no Nio! We need to run faster! We're going to be late at this rate!" Negi yelled to Nio who groaned before nodding back as the two boys began pushing themselves even harder while an announcement went off over the speakers.

They jumped over small obstacles on the road, ran around students who suddenly stopped in front of them, ducked under students swinging their bags around (this academy was crazy), etc. After several minutes of running, the two began to slow down as their muscles began aching in pain. As they got closer, the boys overheard some girl talking about a horoscope for the girl she was running next to you. Nio was going to ignore it until he saw Negi move closer.

"Uh Big Brother?" Nio muttered under his breath before moving over as well. Right as he made it to Negi's side, he heard his brother tell the girl that she'd be heart broken...

"Really Big Brother? Really? I'm younger than you, and even I know you don't tell a girl that," Nio thought to himself as he saw the girl with bell ornaments in her hair's face change from confusion to shock to anger. Before Nio could do anything, the girl grabbed Negi by the head causing him to let out a yelp of shock and pain.

"How'd you like to be broken!" the girl yelled at Negi with Nio looking at her in shock along with Negi at how...angry and violent she seemed to be. Moving closer to the pair, Nio was about to butt in only to shiver at the feeling off anger radiating off the girl.

Looking over at the girl with the one holding his brother in the air, she finally noticed him and gave him a small smile which made him blush before she looked over at her friend and Negi.

"Look you two, this is Mahora School District. It's all-girls. The elementary school's one stop back," the second girl told them causing Nio to sigh. He was right. Teenagers don't show kids their age respect. Suddenly the violent girl shook Negi angrily.

"That's right! Now apologize and I'll put you in the train instead of under it!" the girl yelled in Negi's face while practically snarling causing Nio and Negi to recoil. Deciding that he's seen enough, Nio moved to separate the girl from his brother only for Negi to say probably the dumbest thing his brother has ever said.

"Are all Japanese girls this cranky, or do you just have really serious issues?" Negi questioned the girl who was literally a hair's width away from throttling him. Quickly realizing that this was going to go very badly, Nio sighed as he grabbed his staff. Before the girl could do anything, he brought his staff up, inbetween the two, took one step forward, and sweeped back towards the girl which caught her offguard and made her release Negi.

"What the-! What was that for you gaki?!" the girl angrily yelled while her friend looked on shocked that a child could break her friend's grip. Nio sighed as he ran a hair through his long hair while looking over at Negi who gave him an appreciative look.

"Because, my Big Brother is not good at talking with people who want to beat him senseless. And you are extremely violent. I mean, I know he didn't say anything kind, but really? Threatening a child? We could report you," Nio told the girl who looked back in shock at him while her friend just had a face that screamed 'You know, he's right.' Nio didn't know what it was, but he didn't feel the need to act shy around this girl. Maybe it was his brother instincts kicking in, or the fact that she bears a resemblance to Nekane. Either way...he really needed to thank Nekane for teaching him self-defense moves. He might not know much, but it's at least enough to keep this girl away from Negi.

'For goodness sake though, please don't let her be one of Negi's students,' Nio thought to himself as he placed the staff back into his bag while thanking Nekane for tying it with wraps before they left. It would...definitely draw more looks unwrapped than it already did wrapped.

As Nio saw the angry girl quickly regain the fire in her, he stood in front of Negi to make sure that she couldn't get to him. Before Negi or this girl's friend could stop the two, she rushed towards Nio who took a stance that he learned from Nekane. Right as she was about to grab him, a voice cut through the air causing everyone to freeze.

"So Asuna, making friends I s- Negi-kun! Nio-kun! Is that you?!" the voice yelled out to them which caused all four to look up at a window. Leaning out the window, was a man in his thirties with a goatee. Smiling up at the man, Nio and Negi relaxed their postures while the now named Asuna changed from her old state to...well literally 'a blushing school girl.'

"H-Hello, Takahata-sensei..." Asuna stuttered out which caused Negi and Nio to look at her in shock before realizing that this was who she liked. Shaking their heads, they looked back up and waved at the man. "Hey Takamichi!" both boys yelled at the man who smiled back at them.

Asuna quickly shot to the side in shock at the fact that the two random boys she met on her way to school knew her 'not-so' secret crush. The other girl looked back and forth between these boys and her sensei with a confused look.

"It seems the welcoming committee found you. Glad to have you two aboard, Negi-sensei, Nio-kun," Takahata told the boys who smiled back at him while bowing. Asuna and the other girl looked at the two in shock while the boys just awkwardly smiled at them.

Coughing into his fist, Negi bowed to them while Nio bowed to...well the second girl mainly. Asuna wasn't in his good graces at the moment. "Hello, I am your new English Professor, Negi Springfield," Negi introduced himself to the two girls.

"And I am Nio Springfield, I am my Big Brother's...assistant while he's here," Nio introduced himself as well. Before either one could blink, Asuna had a hold of Negi again causing Nio to blink in shock. For a regular human...she was fast.

"I'll kill you, you twerp! How dare you replace Takahata-sensei! I...I..." she began stammering only for Negi to 'nicely' butt in and say, "You'll be heart broken?"

Nio groaned as he face palmed and decided to let the girl hit Negi in the head at least once. Maybe he'd think before he spoke if she did. Asuna growled angrily as she realized what Negi just said before shaking him back and forth while insulting him over and over again. Negi just made a pouting a face before one of Asuna's ponytails flew up in the air near his nose.

Nio's eyes widened as he realized what was about to happen. Rushing forward, he grabbed Asuna's friend's hand and pulled her further away from Negi and Asuna's location. As soon as they were out of the way, Negi let out a huge sneeze which wouldn't have been so bad...if Negi didn't unleash wind magic along with the sneeze. Asuna gasped in shock as her clothes were shredded off her body which only left her in her bra and panties.

Nio and Negi blushed along with Takahata who chose that moment to lean back away from the window. Knowing that Asuna would probably take this chance to beat Negi for this, Nio shot forward and grabbed his brother's hand to pull him away.

"I thought you were working on keeping your wind magic under control," Nio whispered to Negi who chuckled awkwardly and looked away making Nio sigh. After glancing at Asuna in confusion, her friend walked forward to the boys.

"Well that was...weird. Anyway, I guess we need to take you to make grandpa's office huh? Asuna! Come on, you can get a track suit on the way! I'm Konoka Konoe by the way, it's nice to meet you two. Sorry...our meeting wasn't as great as I had hoped," Konoka bowed in apology to the two. Negi just bowed back and told her it wasn't a problem and apologized for his big mouth. Nio bowed, but didn't say anything as he felt his shyness kick back in.


Headmaster's Office

"Headmaster, please tell me this is a joke, or a mistake," Asuna basically pleaded with the Headmaster while Nio and Negi just frowned in the corner. They knew their meeting wasn't that great, but still. This was their assignment, and they were going to accomplish it.

The headmaster just chuckled as he began to stroke his beard. "I could tell you, but it would be lying Asuna-san. Now then professor, assistant, this teaching post should prove interesting in your training, huh?" he questioned the two who chuckled as they looked away while the girls looked at them in confusion.

Bowing to their new boss, they nodded their heads. "Yes sir, we'll do our best," Nio told him with the Headmaster smiling back.

"You two will need to better than that. Negi-sensei, you will student teach until March. Nio-kun, you will assist him with his job. Should you two fail at teaching your class, then your 'jobs' will be ended, and you'll be sent home," the Headmaster informed the boys who gulped, but nodded back.

The headmaster then brought his hand up in Konoka's direction which made her look at him in confusion. "By the way you two, my granddaughter is available if either of you two are interested," he began only for Konoka to groan and hit him with a small hammer. As the Headmaster was about to continue, Asuna suddenly butted in catching the boys' attention again.

"Hello! I still can't believe that a kid can be a teacher! It's totally unacceptable!" Asuna yelled in denial only for the Headmaster to sigh.

"It's not up for you to accept Asuna-san. It's up to me, and I do, and they know that their's no second chances. So this is fine," the Headmaster told Asuna who groaned as she moved over to the corner with Konoka patting her back. "Now then boys, while you are starting out, your advisor will be Shizuna-sensei. Shizuna-kun! Come on out!" he yelled out. Nio turned around to see their advisor, only to come face first with nothing, but white while two large soft orbs enveloped his head. Negi looked at Nio in shock before looking up at who he guessed was Shizuna-sensei.

Shizuna smiled at Negi before looking at Nio who blushed up at her. "Hello there. You must be Nio-kun. Any questions?" she asked Nio only for his entire face to turn red and his body to freeze. Negi realized what happened causing him to sigh.

"Sorry Shizuna-sensei, my brother is quite shy. So he tends to freeze up in situations like this," Negi apologized to Shizuna who just smiled as she began to pet the back of Nio's head.

"It's fine Negi-kun. How about we head onto your class?" Shizuna told Negi as she gently pulled Nio away from her and patted his cheek causing him to slowly regain his thoughts. "You okay Nio-kun?" Shizuna questioned Nio who continued to blush before running and ducking behind Negi who sighed back at Nio.

As the five were about to leave, the Headmaster quickly remembered something.

"Oh yeah, Konoka-chan, Asuna-san, can Negi-sensei and Nio-kun bunk with you two while they are here? We don't currently have any rooms available for them," the Headmaster asked the two which shocked the four youngest members in the room.

"We're suppose to learn from them and wet nurse them?!" Asuna angrily yelled at the Headmaster only for Nio to frown at her statement.

"Hey! We aren't babies! So don't treat us like we are! If I remember correctly, you're the one who tried to attack a child while throwing a temper tantrum like a five year old!" Nio angrily yelled back causing Asuna to growl and grab his collar only for Nio to respond by doing the same thing while butting heads with her and growling.

Konoka just laughed at this before walking over to them. "Aw Asuna, it'll be fine. They'll be like our younger brothers," Konoka told Asuna who refused to stop glaring at Nio who responded in the same way.

"Hell no! I'm not sharing our room with two brats! Especially this one!" looking right at Nio who continued glaring at her, "If I have to share our room, it will only be with one! I refuse to share with both!" Asuna let go of Nio and pushed him away. Konoka walked over to him and made sure that he was fine.

The Headmaster sighed before looking at her. "Okay okay, I'll ask another pair of students from your class to house Nio-kun, but Negi-sensei will stay with you two. Is that understood?" he questioned Asuna who just hmph'd and nodded her head before walking out of the room. Sighing, he apologized to the boys before telling them that they can head to class now.

Nio sighed as they walked out of the office, giving Shizuna a small smile for a brief second as he passed her to make sure that she didn't worry about him. This was going to be the first time that he didn't share a room with Negi in...forever. Stupid Asuna...They were heading to class, so he might as well perk up before he met the students that he and his brother would be watching over for the next school year.

And end of chapter! So...Nio and Asuna aren't friends...yeah...Expect more clashes between the two in the future. Nio is protective of his brother and we all know how Asuna gets when she's angry at Negi so...The next chapter will be the rest of Chapter 1 of the manga (so you know meeting the class, the Nodoka rescue with Asuna finding out their mages, etc) plus some extra stuff. Also, Nio knows a few self-defense moves, but not enough to actually be capable in a hand-to-hand fight.
I shall keep taking suggestions for Nio's harem (and to know if you all want KonoSetsu or the two in Nio's harem). Also, I have an idea for whose room he'll stay in, but I'll take suggestions.
