Chapter six: Night of the Vampire part 3 Jack's back!
I don't own Negima!
"About time I get to talk again." Jack said in his familiar Texas drawl standing transparent over his Chibified form. Kaede was speechless as she looks at his muscular from again. Chachamaru tried to take advantage of this and attacked the ninja, but an arrow of fire stopped her. Looking over she saw the smoking tip of Jacks index finger.
"That would be an awful career decision doll." He said blowing the smoke off his finger as if it were a smoking gun barrel. In this case it probably was, "Now I don't usually like to use my magic, but since I can't physically attack you I have no choice. Now I would suggest you move out of the circle." He said pointing his finger at the robot.
Chachamaru knew she would lose even if Jack couldn't move, not wanting to fail her master she would at least destroy the circle. "Sorry but request denied" she said slashing down at the runes if even one was out of place the circle would become unstable and exploded, the magical backlash would at least severely injure the two.
Jack looked sadly at the robot as she tried to disrupt the circle, something that he could not let happen. "Sorry doll it wasn't a request." He whispered firing a fire bullet into the robot's arm stopping the attack, then shot three more; one in her other arm and the other two into both of her legs; immobilizing the robot completely.
Kaede looked on at the robot, she may have been the enemy but she could respect her devotion to Evangeline even if she knew she could be destroyed by it.
Chachamaru stared at the Cowboy perplexed why didn't he finish her, even if she couldn't move she could still self-destruct and destroy the circle. "Why don't you finish me off, I am still able to carry out my mission even in this state. So why spare me?"
"Well your right, but I don't think I have the heart to destroy you truthfully." Jack said scratching the back of his head.
"Why not? The logical thing to do would be to eliminate me, so why?" She asked confused.
"Well if I did that then the children at the daycare would be sad. I'm sure Satome and Chao could rebuild you but you wouldn't be the same." He explained looking directly at the robot.
"The children?" Chachamaru asked wondering what they had to do with this.
"Believe it or not but I remember everything from when I was Chibified, and I saw how you played with those children, feed those stray kittens, and most of your other good deeds, hell you even played with me! When you could have easy kidnapped me or killed me!" Jack said listing off plenty of reasons why he wouldn't destroy her. "Like I said I don't have the heart to kill such a kind heart person like you."
Chachamaru felt something strange inside her, she stiffly moved her arm to her face and found that she was leaking oil from her eyes. "Strange is this what they call crying tears of joy? This is the first time anyone ever called me a person." She questioned, none of these things were in her programing, and it frightened her, yet it also felt… good, to be acknowledged as a person.
"I will no longer interfere; my batteries are too low to do anything anyways." She stated even though she could still self-destruct. Chachamaru of her own free will, disobeyed her master's orders.
With Chachamaru out of the picture the ninja and the cowboy both stood inside the circle waiting for the other, too speak. The nervousness was pouring off both of them in waves. Finally it was Jack who spoke up.
"I understand if you don't want to do the Pactio anymore, I'll probably change back in about a month or so if…"
Kaede's lips interrupted him as she planted them firmly on to his in a passionate kiss, embracing him as he wrapped his arms around her. The World Tree pulsed with power as it light up shooting a pillar of pink energy in the sky. When the lights died down the two were still lipped locked together as their Pactio cards appeared in their hands.
On Kaede's Card was a picture of her in her shinobi outfit, with what looked like floating bead bracelets around her wrist and ankles. (If you ever played Okami they look like the rosary beads Ammy uses look it up if you haven't)
Jack's Card had a picture of him wearing a red trench coat, cargo jeans and combat boots; with dozens of floating swords around him. (Jack is pretty much wearing Dante's cloths from DmC3 and the swords are the devil arm Lucifer in DMC4)
They both studied there cards till a loud explosion echoed from the bridge. "Ah Crap I forgot about Negi!" Jack yelled he was about to run off when Kaede coughed in to her hand and point to his clothes that lay forgotten on the ground. Jack took notice to see that he was only dress in his boxers after transforming back to his original state. Embarrassed he walked over and collects his clothes.
After putting on his pants and strapping on his gun belt, Jack was ready to help Negi. Giving a nod to Kaede the two run off to assist their friends.
Negi and Evangeline faced off, sending spell after spell at on another; eventually the surrounding area was covered in ice. Running on top of the frozen water Negi decides to use a spell that Jack taught him. Gathering energy into his palm began to chant the spell "Oh rabidus phasmatis of flamma! Permissum thy ira perussi thy hostilis! Rabidus abyssus incendia!" Dark blue/green flames exploded from his hand melting huge portions of the ice in an instant. Areas that were not in direct contact continued to burn; melting more of the ice.
The vampire floated in the air shell shocked at what she sees, she couldn't believe the boyo could use a spell that powerful and it wasn't even one of his elements! To her the flames look like the legendary Greek fire that would burn for seven days and nights, but where did he learn such a spell? Why has she one who been around for centuries never heard of it?
"Tell me Boyo where did you learn that spell?" the vampire asked floating on to the bridge, he had been putting up quite a fight but she could tell that it was catching up to him. She made sure to keep an eye on the martial artist too. Who had to step out of the battle do to the inability to fly.
"That was Jack's personal spell he taught it to me awhile back, though honesty if was the first time I used in battle." Answered Negi though deep gasps of breath; he found it hard to breath after using Jack's Rabidus abyssus incendia spell. It really drained his magic reverses, though different from last time, he knew this was going to be it. As he prepared to use one of his most powerful spells. He won last time, he can do it again! He shouted in his mind.
"What do you say Evangeline one last big spell?" he challenged he was not disappointed has the vampire accepted.
"Fine just give me your blood when I win." She taunted readying her own spell.
"Fine but you have to came to class when I win." He said then started chanting "phasmatis of divinus ventus! Filiolus of tempestas! Adeo meus suffragium per thunder quod lux lucis, pario vox of turbo ventus, contero thy emendo! Attonbitus of ruina!" A tornado of wind and lightning shot towards the vampire who barely had time to finish her own chant!
"Atrum phasmatis of glacies! Exorior quod smite meus hostilis! Atrum Glacies Plaga!" A whirlwind of ice and snow clashed with wind and lightning. The two struggled for dominance; though Negi's spell was more powerful, Evangeline still had enough power to make her spell overwhelm the young wizard. The ice was about to break Negi's spell, when suddenly he sneezed!
The blast of magic the sneezed produced was able to overpower the vampires spell making her take the full blunt of both spells; it also causes a large explosion to echo out thought the area! Negi took moment to catch his breath, he did he beat Evangeline without even a partner! Fei-Ku drifted into his line of sight. Well maybe not officially a Pactio partner. He thought to himself as he look at the martial artist, but there was something he was forgetting… Evangeline! She's falling off the side of the bridge! He yelled out loud jumping on his staff and flew to catch the vampire just as the power returned to the school, meaning she no longer had any powers!
Evangeline fell through the air knowing she may not survive the fall, her thought when to Nagi the thousand Master. "You didn't keep you promise, you basterd." She mummed remembering how he promised to come back when she graduated. She felt a tug on her hand; she look up to see who it was that grabbed her.
"Nagi" she said looking at the person then shook her head, it was just the boyo. "What are you doing, you know that I'll just come after you again! So why save ME?" the vampire yelled trying to wiggle out of the child's grip, but it was surprisingly strong.
"Do I need a reason to save some one? Besides you promised to come to class if I beat you, so I'm making sure you keep your word." He smiled at the vampire as he landed safely on the bridge. Just as Jack and Kaede arrived, with a badly damaged Chachamaru who was able to temporary fix her arms and legs allowing her to fly.
"So we lost completely huh." She said looking at Chachamaru's current state; they would have to take her to Chao for repairs.
"Yes Master I am sorry to have failed." The robot apologized as she flew to the vampire's side.
"Don't worry about it lets just go home." She said dismissively at least things won't be quite so boring around her with those two hot heads. She thought to herself as she walked back to her cottage; at least glad she still had her companion.
"Yes Master" Chachamaru said bowing to everyone before taking her leave.
"Guess we missed the fight uh" said Jack as he click his tongue in disappointment, he was looking forward to fighting the vampire, but it sounds like there will be other chances. Everybody took a moment to look at their state of dress.
Negi still had his pants but his shirt was ripped off from the winds of his spell, Jack still only had his jeans and gun belt that he brought with him. Kaede luckily just had a few holes in clothes from her fight with Chachamaru, and Fei-Ku was still only in her panties.
These made the two males turn away as Kaede wrapped the martial artist's chest in her scarf, at least covering the girl's modesty. After everybody had at least the bare minimum of cloths on, they raced back the dorms making sure not to be seen, by anybody especially by a certain red haired reporter or greened haired gossip hound.
Jack and Kaede stopped in front of their door and bid Negi and Fei-Ku good night, before entering where they both climbed in to bed together wrapped in the other embraced. In the dark of night unknown to the two a slim red thread connected their pinkies.
Negi and Fei-Ku opened the door to their room, the hole Jack made still there from earlier. The two were so tired they didn't even bother to remove their dirty clothes or climb into their respected beds. As they wrapped themselves together under the blanket and drifted off to sleep. A small red light shined underneath the sheets suspiciously close to where their hands touched.
It was a wonderful morning as our heroes slept it away peacefully, that was till a certain rich blonde looked through the hole in Fei-Ku's door.
"What are you doing with Negi-sensei, you hussy!" Ayaka pointed dramatically normally she didn't sleep in the dorms but she had to stay last night organizing upcoming school events. When she awoke she saw the hole in the Chinese girl's door. Curiously and not respecting others privacy she looks inside. To her horror she finds the two snuggled up together in bed. By now her screams attracted most of the dorm and woke up one pissed off cowboy.
"WILL YOU SHUT THE HELL UP! SOME OF US LIKE TO SLEEP! DAMNIT!" Jack yelled from his spot on Kaede's bed, he had the curiously to clover her ears before yelling, trying to let her sleep more after their battle with Evangeline last night. His effort where in vain as now most of the girls were throwing questions left and right outside the door; waking the ninja up.
"Uh what's happening? What's with all the noise?" she asked rubbing the sleep from her eyes, as she went to investigate the noise outside her door; still clothed in her clothes from late night.
"Nothing, but trouble." Jack muttered following after her, not even bothering to put on a shirt, those girls probably thought they were doing it already anyways. He knew that they probably didn't really care if Negi was caught in a girl's bed because he looked ten; him however was a different story.
Opening the door Kaede say that Jack was right. "Nothing but trouble indeed" she muttered as most of the class was now in the hall. Questions about their relationship where the first to be asked, then how long they been together, and finally if they did it yet. An anime sweat drop appeared on Kaede's head "this really all they thing about?" she question silently, just then the twins appeared from the crowd. "I cannot deal with this right now." She muttered to herself putting her hand on her face.
"Then let me handle it." Jack said behind her as he drew his pistol hand fired a few shots into the air, luckily for the crowd they were blanks but they did the job, as everyone shut up instantly.
"Allow me to answers your questions." Jack said pleasantly putting his gun on his shoulder with his other hand he held up one finger. "One Kaede and I are going out and living together, number two, we have been together just recently. Number three no we have not done anything yet." He said the last part quietly. "Now Negi is staying with Fei-Ku, he is not changing room nor will you gals bother him about it! It his choice where he stays, and believe it or not he can make his own choices!" he said the last part a little hotly, it pissed him off that most of these girls thought that he had no free will of his own!
After Jack's little speech most of the girls left, the ones that remained were Mana, Konoka, and Setsuna who stayed down the hall away from them.
"Is there something I can do for you girls?" he asked tiredly he really didn't want to deal with any one right now. Mana walked up to him first holding out a pile of parts that look like a gun.
"Negi-Sensei said you could fix these." The mercenary said handing him the broken guns.
"Sure, just be sure you bring back mine." He said, he noticed earlier that some of his guns were missing, then he add "you can keep the dynamite."
The dark skinned mercenary gave him smirk before walking off. It was Konoka's turn Jack could see Setsuna tense as the samurai girl reached for her sword.
"What can I do for you?" he asked the Dean's granddaughter.
"Can I try on your hat?" she asked innocently causing everyone to face drop. Recovering from the out of the blue question Jack just stared at the girl "Why?"
"I just want to" she said again somehow making her eyes go wide like a kitten's.
"Um sure" he said walking back into the room grabbing his hat of the bed post, he gave a Kaede a shrug indicating that he had no idea what was going on and place the hat on the girls head. She gave a squeal of joy as she did a pose. Flash of camera blinded everyone for a minute as Kazumi Asukura emerged from her hiding place.
"Thanks for taking my picture for me Kazumi!" Konoka said as she gave back Jack's hat, the red head just smirked as she gave Konoka the picture.
"It's good to have the Dean's granddaughter owe me a favor." The reporter said walking away. Making all magical aware people feel that this was going to lead to a horrible future events. Well they were pondering on what the reporter had planned for them. Konoka took her leave with Setsuna following silently behind.
"So will you let me try on your hat? If I ask nicely?" asked Kaede walking up close to the cowboy.
"Depends how you ask." He said as the ninja's lips crashed into his "I think that'll work," he teased leading her back into the room, not forgetting to place the hat on her head and shut the door. It was Friday which meant they were going camping, and he couldn't wait to be alone with her out in the woods.
Negi laid still he heard the girls outside and was about to go out and address them, but luckily Jack was able to handle them, allowing him to enjoy some more time of looking at the beautiful girl lying across from him. He knew that eventually he would have to get up but for now he was going to enjoy this time of peace. After all pretty soon there may be no time for moments like this when the exams come around. He mussed as Fei-Ku snuggled him closer.
Omake Chapter: Little Jack Adventures
I know some of you are wondering what Jack did in the teacher lounge a couple of chapters back so here's what happened.
Professor Takamichi Takahata of Mahora academy, friend of the Legendary Thousand Master, stared at the Chibi before him. Negi, son of his friend Nagi Springfield come by and asked him to watch the Chibified Jack sitting on his desk. Surely it couldn't be too hard; after all he helped save the magic world dozens of times. This was going to be walk in the park after all it's his job to watch kids almost all day anyways.
So he left the Chibi on the side of his desk with a pile of blank pieces of paper and some pens to draw with, while he corrected some test from another class. He filled in for as their teacher was sick today.
Little Jack was bored the little red head in the green suit, dropped him off with his old guy who was ignoring him! Suddenly he sneezed and fire shot out of his mouth. An evil thought crossed the little Chibi's mind as he look at the pile of papers before him. Taking a sheet he began to crumpling it up into a ball.
Takahata continued to correct the papers he was almost done with this stack and he had another stack to go. He sighed what he wouldn't give to be out on a mission right now. Well deep in his boarding. He never saw the flaming paper ball fly over his head into the garbage can full of papers.
Professor Akashi one of the other mage teachers looked on in shock as Takahata's garbage burst into flames.
"Takahata-sensei!" he shouted pointing to the chain smokers trash bin. Takahata took a moment to react, then quickly dumped the bin contents on the floor and stomped out the flames before they could spread.
"Did I drop a cigarette in there?" he questioned then he saw a flaming paper ball land on another teachers desk, causing the paper scattered on it to combust in to flame. He looks behind him to see little Jack lighting up another paper ball and throw it on to Tōko Kuzunoha's desk. He glimpsed as he knew the swordswoman wouldn't be happy when she got back from class.
"Alright I think you've had enough fun for now." He said taking the paper balls away from the Chibi. Who just look at him, then burped hot scorching flames on to the chain smoker! Making him have to stop drop and roll! When he finally put out the flames his suit was half gone and his hair was burn in some places.
"Alright enough!" he yelled but Akashi-Sensei interrupt him before he could scowled the Chibi "What now?" he asked turning around to see what had the other mage in such a frenzy. In the middle of the room was bubble about the size of his desk.
"Where did that come from?" he asked not really expecting answer, to his side he saw Little Jack holding his lighter, he watched in slow motion as the Chibi clicked the flame on and throw it at the bubble.
"Everybody down!" he yelled ducking under his desk, just as the lighter hit the bubble making it go BOOM!
Takahata got up from under his desk, the room was charred black, and luckily no one was hurt. He took one look at the Chibi then grabbed him and ran out the door. His best friends son or not there was no way he was dealing with this shit any longer. After he deposed the little demon on Negi and walks out the class room about to light up a cigarette then decided against it, he had enough of fire today. He mussed as he threw his spare lighter into nearby trash bin.
Author's notes
Spells translations
Negi's spell
"Phasmatis of divinus ventus! Filiolus of tempestas! adeo meus suffragium per thunder quod lux lucis , pario vox of turbo ventus , contero thy emendo! Attonbitus of ruina!"
"Spirit of the divine winds! Gods of the storms! Come to my aid with thunder and lighting; bring forth the power of the hurricane winds, to crush thy enemies! Thunderstorm of destruction!"
This spell is pretty much a more powerful version of Negi's Jovis Tempestas Fulguriens (Jupiter's Storm of Thunder)
Jack's spell
"Oh rabidus phasmatis of flamma! Permissum thy ira perussi thy hostilis! Rabidus abyssus incendia"
Oh raging spirit of flame! Let thy anger consume thy enemies! raging hell fire!
No base for this spell just made it up on the spot!
Evangeline's Spell was supposed to be the one she used in the series against Negi but I couldn't find it so I made one up.
Atrum phasmatis of glacies! Exorior quod smite meus hostilis! Atrum Glacies Plaga!
Dark spirit of ice! Come forth and smite my enemies! Dark Ice Strom!
Do you guys like when I put the chant in the story or not because I'm having mixed feeling about it.
