Chapter ten: Kyoto part 3 kiss battle and kataro
I don't own Negima!
It was the three day for the trip, Negi and Fei-Ku when to deliver the letter Dean Konoe gave them to Eshin Konoe Konoka's father and head of the Kansai Magic association. Negi was glad to be away from the hotel as Kazumi organized a game where most of the girls would try to steal a kiss from the kid teacher before the end of the day.
Ayaka was the first to try, she attempted to steal one in his sleep luckily he shared a room with Fei-Ku, which mean the rich blonde walked in on Kaede and Jack during very private moment. As she could no longer look the ninja in eye without blushing, the next ones to try were Haruna, Yue, and Nodoka. Who tried the same plan as Ayaka but this time Haruna tried to catch him in the bathes, once again she ran in on Jack and Kaede; who were not happy at being interrupted again.
Yue forced Nodoka to try and confess her feeling for him at the park, by writing a note for him to meet them there. Knowing what happened last he was at the park with Nodoka, Negi decided to just deliver the letter to Eshin; leaving the two girls standing in the park alone for the next few hours.
They were close to the place where Kataro trapped him and Asuna last time, only this time he was ready for the hanyou. "Fei-Ku get ready we're going to be attack soon." The wizard said readying his staff, well Fei-Ku moved into a fighting stance. Up above them on the Shrine gates a small black blur Jumped from gate to gate then landed on the gate in front of the two.
"So you guys knew I was coming? You're well informed, but that's not going to save you!" the Hanyou yelled attacking with his claws! Negi swiftly dodged the attack the razor claws just inches away from his face. Fei-Ku attacked the dog demon with a series of swift punches and kicks, but none connect as the hanyou weaved left and right easy avoiding the strikes.
"A human like you could never hope to take me on!" The dog hanyou declared arrogantly as he jumped on to the shrine gates again, only to be knocked back down to the ground by Negi's arrows of wind. Hoping to finish the Hanyou quickly both jumped to deliver the finishing blow!
Kataro smirked as the two charges at him; he pressed the seal hidden on the gate behind him activating the seals trapping them all in the barrier. He heard that some powerful guy was traveling with the little runt but all he got was a little girl. So he decided not to bother with a Goki. He was surprised though that Negi was able to keep up with him in hand to hand combat. It went against everything he heard about the kid before!
"So there's more to you than meets the eye, that ok because there more to me too!" he yelled removing his stocking cap that hid his dog ears. "I'll fight you at full power!" Kataro's muscles bulged his hair lengthen as demonic power poured out of him in waves. The real battle has just begun!
Meanwhile Konoka and Setsuna were in cinema village enjoying the day after the whole kidnapping incident on the first day, the samurai girl has been sticking like glue to Konoka. Though she didn't know why Setsuna finally decided to spend time with her, the Konoe Princess didn't care as long as she was with her Set-Chan again!
They had happy entered the festive movie village, as soon as they entered Konoka dragged them in to a nearby dressing room to find some costumes for them. When they emerged Setsuna was dressed as Shinsengumi samurai and Konoka as a princess. The two wondered throughout the village enjoying the sites, foods, and sounds of the cinema.
Following behind the two were Jack and Kaede who also were also in disguise. Jack was using Musashi to blend in as he couldn't use his guns in the crowds, but he had been waiting for a chance to test his new power in combat, so he could live without his guns for a few hours at least; Kaede of coarse was in a ninja outfit that she found in the dress room. The two followed the girls throughout the village making sure to keep an eye out for the enemy and also enjoy the attractions that the cinema had to offer; no reason they couldn't have fun too.
Back that the shrine gates Negi and Fei-Ku were struggling to keep up with the transformed Kataro, he may be stronger than last time but he hasn't been able to get his body to the level necessary for his more powerful forbidden moves. Right now they were hiding by the pond with in the barrier, trying to figure out a way to beat the hanyou.
"I could try the magia erebea but I drought I could last more than ten seconds in that form. I most defiantly could defeat Kataro, but the question is would I have enough strength for Fate later on, if only…" Negi paused in his brain storming a Pactio could work, in truth he wanted to enter a partnership with Fei-Ku for a while now but he didn't want to endanger his students again, but looking at the current situation that was going to happen anyways. Might as well give them a weapon to defend themselves, he reasoned in the end.
"Fei-Ku I have a way to defeat him, but I need your help" the wizard said as he began to draw the Pactio circle in the dirt. He really should learn how to do these things intently like Chamo it was sort of a bother to wright them in the ground all the time.
"What do you need Negi-Bozou?" she had an idea at what he wanted and was kind of excited about it.
"I need you to make a contract with me. It sort of like a the one Jack did with Kaede but not as powerful." He explained as the circle began to glow. "Now I know you may not want to but…" Negi's words were downed out as Fei-Ku's lips smashed into his, the circle shined with a pinkish light that evolved the two. When the light finally died down a long red staff with golden end was in Fei-Ku's hands.
Fei-Ku stared at her new weapon in awe; it felt like it was made for her, she gave it a few practice swings surprised as the staff changed size; growing larger or longer at her will. "This is awesome Aru!" the martial artist cried with glee as she grabbed Negi into a fierce bear hug!
"Uh Fei-Ku!" the wizard yelled as he felt the oxygen leave his lungs. Fei-Ku quickly let go of him but he hit his head on the rock, causing swirls to appear in his eye!
"Oh I'm sorry Negi-Bozou "the martial artist cried as she violently shakes him by his shoulders. Eventually Negi was able to recover and began to explain his plan. Fei-Ku nodded as Negi told her what to do.
Kataro was getting impatient as he searched for the two; they couldn't have broken through the barrier have they? He questioned suddenly he picked up a strange noise with his ears. What was it? It sounded like a swooshing noise but what could be making it?
Fei-Ku spun her staff over her head till it was nothing but a blur "That's good Ku-Chan keep it up just a little longer!" Negi encouraged as he chanted a spell, if this works they could defeat Kataro and get out of here at the same time!
"Alright here we go! Levitas telum!" he yelled lightning shot out of his hand then combined with the staff causing it to produce bolts of electricity. "Now KU!"
The martial artist nodded commanding her staff to lengthen to where it covers over the whole area! Destroying all the forestry and the gates that held the seals, allowing them to escape! They found Kataro on the ground, who had reverted to his normal form. His body still spazing from the electrical shocks as he comment on how much stronger Negi was then he originally thought saying he would love to fight again before he slipped into unconsciousness. Negi and Fei-Ku continued on their way to the Konoe Mansion hoping that Jack and Kaede would succeed in their part of the plan.
Jack and Kaede were not in a good situation they had lost track of Setsuna and Konoka mostly because they were too busy making out in ally way. The two girls were enjoying some lunch so they decided to have some personal time, because everybody kept interrupting them all morning! Seriously what is wrong with those girls! Back home his Aunt always complained about guys barging in on girls not the other way around! People in the east sure where strange, but that wasn't important right now they had to find the girls!
Setsuna's eyed the crowds warily she could feel the presence of something sinister, she knew for a fact it had to be the enemy. Most likely the charm Users and the swordswoman Negi-sensei spoke of, she had to Konoka away to somewhere but where? The arena over there should do, Setsuna reasoned when a dark presence appeared right beside her!
"You shouldn't let you guard down sempai." Tsukuyomi whispered into Setsuna's ear as she drew her swords "I really hope you'll enjoy this as much as I will sempai!"
Setsuna just barely blocked the rouge Shinmei sword with her own pushing her back to block her shot blade, the two moved with unparalleled speed! Dashing off on to the roof tops with a shower of sparks in their wake.
"Setsuna!" Konoka yelled after her friend but a slender hand covered her mouth, Chigusa the charm user dragged the Konoe princess away making sure to keep out the crowds notice.
The two Shinmei swordswoman continued to fight on top of the roofs of cinema village. Setsuna took a quick look at where she left Konoka but she was gone!
"Konoka!" she yelled but was cut short, blocking Tsukuyomi's blades from removing her head.
"I told you sempai you shouldn't let your guard down!" the rouge Shinmei yelled as she cut deep into the other swordswoman's side then gave her blade a quick twist as she pulled it out. "This won't any fun if you don't give it your all" Tsukuyomi said as she licks the blade off her blade, her eyes gaining an insane twinkle to them.
"Damn" she thought as she parried another one of Tsukuyomi's attacks, she had to get to Konoka somehow but how was the question. Setsuna dodged another slash but couldn't stop the second attack coming at her! She prepared to meet her end, when another pair of swords blocked the attack! Standing before her dressed in samurai gear was Jack!
"You better get along girlie! I got this covered, go save Konoka! Kaede will show you the way, now go!" He commanded as he pushed the rogue Shinmei back. Setsuna gave a nod in understanding as she and Kaede rushed off to Konoka's aid.
"Ah you made sempai go away, but she wasn't being any fun anyways, so I hope you'll be more of challenge." Tsukuyomi said dejectedly disappointed that her prey got away but she felt her blood rise as she felt the killer aura coming from the man before her.
"Don't worry I never disappoint a lady." Jack said jumping to attack the rouge, in a matter of seconds they were locked in a frenzy of blades, as one tried to overpower the other. The battle between the Shinmei Ryu vs. Musashi's Nito Ryu style has just begun!
Kaede and Setsuna jumped from rooftop to rooftop, Setsuna had made some Shikigami to help search for the missing princess, and so far they have had no luck. The ninja was growing concern for the swordswoman's health as blood continued to seep for the wound. Her face pale from the blood lost her breathing harsh as she continued to push her body further.
"Setsuna-Dono, I would suggest you stop and rest well I get Konoka-Dono for you." Kaede tried to reason with the wounded girl, but she would not hear of it as she tried to move even faster! The ninja just sighed at the swordswoman's stubbornness, didn't she realize that she would cause more harm to Konoka then any wound if she died? She would do all in her power to make sure that didn't happen even if it meant she would have to pull the veil from both girls eyes. Konoka the existence of magic and Setsuna that dying to protect Konoka would do more harm than good. It was time to focus now she could sense the Konoka's presence nearby and that of other most likely the charm user; jack told her about.
"Get ready Setsuna were almost there!" Kaede yelled jumping on the roof of the building were Konoka's presence was coming from, as they entered the building Kaede took one last look in the direction they come from giving a silent prayer for Jack's safety.
Back with Jack he was having a tough time keeping up with the rouge Shinmei both were pretty much equal as far as skill goes but he could tell his opponent was holding back some. Something that he felt was very insulting, but then again he wasn't going all out either.
The two crashed the swords interlocking with each other as they pushed for dominance. When they broke apart they slashed at each other their swords nothing but a blur to the crowd of people below.
"You're pretty good!" Tsukuyomi said in ecstasy, she never thought that she would be this lucky to fight someone that could easy defend against her kodachi's with a katana and watashi. Once more injure her it was like a dream come true! The thought as Jack cut across her cheek again both were sporting several scratches but nothing lethal.
"I like I said I aim to please." Jack replied dodging Tsukuyomi's blades with swift precision of a master swordsman, the razor sharp blades just missing by a hair. Quickly he pulled out his Pactio card; it was time to take this fight to the next level!
"Adeat" Jack's card glowed a brilliant crimson as dozens of swords floated around him all glowing with a menacing aura. With a slight gesture of his head the swords flew at the rouge, but she was able to slash them away easy!
"Is that all you got?" Tsukuyomi asked unimpressed at Jack's artifact; however she was in for a big surprise as the cowboy clapped his hands together making all the swords she blocked explode! As Tsukuyomi recovered from the shock force of the explosion Jack had his swords posed to slice off her head. Thinking this was the end she closed her eyes waiting for the blade to touch her skin, but it never came. Opening her eyes she saw a white haired boy holding Jack's blade between his fingers.
"Fate!" Jack growled has he put more force behind his attack, but his blade would just not move!
"I can't believe you having trouble with trash like this" he said monotone as he put summoned a stone spear that pierced Jack though his lung, then threw him through the roof of the burning building and teleported him and Tsukuyomi away.
With Kaede and Setsuna they were able to locate Konoka but the charm user had summoned several Goki Golems. Two spider golem, three bear golem and finally a raccoon golem, stood in the way of recusing the captured Konoka who lay bound gaged behind the charm user.
"Hold on Konoka-sama I will save you!" Setsuna declared but the wound in her side spoke otherwise as the pain was great enough to bring the swordswoman to her knees. She tried to stay standing, but hand clamped on to her shoulder keeping her down.
"Let me handle this Degozou" Kaede said as she held out her Pactio card, with wink she advanced on the monsters.
"Adeat" the card disappeared and four bead bracelets appeared on the ninja's arms and legs. She quick snapped her arm at the spiders causing the bracelet to transform into a whip that slashed apart the golems in instant. The bears tried to get her from behind but Kaede was ready and sent a kick that activated the beads on her legs slashing them to pieces. The raccoon when for a head on attack, the bracelet on Kaede's left spun creating electrical energy and punched the air in front of her sending the gathered energy at the raccoon destroying it in a hail of sparks.
Chigusa back away from the advancing ninja in fear, there was no way she could take the girl head on! She looked at the bound Konoka and grabbed her harshly by her bonds.
"One more step and the princess gets it!" She yelled desperately
Kaede stared hard at the cowardly charm user, faster than anyone could see she flung her rosary whip at the Charm user's neck. Chigusa on instinct grabbed for the beads to prevent from being strangled. With a mighty heave Kaede flung the charm user out the nearby window. Then rushed to Konoka's side untying the girl, then raced over to Setsuna's side who looked ready to kill over!
"Setsuna!" Konoka cried in concern at her friend's condition. Blood had started to pool around the fallen swordswoman; Konoka fearful of losing her friend violently shook her body shouting her name. Kaede held her head in shame she had failed, she moved to take Konoka away to the Konoe house, but before she could a blinding light shine from the crying girl.
"What is this?" the ninja whispered as the light enveloped the room.
