Wassup people of earth. Since I haven't really been updating this story, I apologize. But I caught a cold, and haven't had enough inspiration to do so, until recently. So, part 1 of Negi's story is up and running. Sorry if you read the first time I uploaded this chapter, but I sort of forgot that there were multiple stories on this account sorry about that

Negi stood up, looking at his diploma from the Merdiana School of Magic. He had just returned home from being noogied by Adam, and was a little annoyed. The diploma was finally going to show his task. The scroll lit up and flashed. When Negi finally regained his sight, he looked at it and saw that written, as if with pixie dust, was An Archaeologist in the Magic World. He blinked several times as if this was a completely different language than any he had ever seen before. Well, this is going to be interesting, he thought.

He walked over to Anya and Nekane, saying, "Look at this, no one's gotten this job in 1396 years. And he was one of the best minister magi's in the universe."

Anya looked over at it and said, "Hmph, it's not that interesting, at least not compared to this." and showed a picture of Negi with his hair sticking up all over the place.

"Ah! where did you get a picture of that!? Grrr... It was Adam, wasn't it? Tch... I'm gonna kill him," Negi growled.

"You're gonna kill who?" said a voice behind him.

"Ah! Adam! Uh... no one," he said nervously.

"Really? 'cause I beg to differ, I'm pretty sure you said you'd kill someone named Adam, but that couldn't be me could it?" he said sarcastically.

"Uh... You must've heard wrong, well, bye!" he shouted, running off.

"Huh. He's so much fun, until he runs away," Adam said.

"Please take care of him, Adam, I'm worried that he'll run into trouble again," Nekane said.

"Yeah, I will, it is my job after all," he said, "Plus, I never kept my last promise. The least I can do is make it up to him by protecting his son."

"Thank you," Nekane said.

"But he really is growing up to be like his father," he said, "but without the womanizer part. Maybe."

2 Months Later

"Hey, Negi! I'm coming along with you!" Adam shouted.

"Huh? Why?"

"Well, for starters, I'm your guardian. Second, it's also my job. Third, ...I got nothing," Adam said, causing Negi to face-vault.

"Okay, so now we gotta go over to the portal. By the way, where is it?" Negi asked.

"Hmph... typical freshies, it's over there, on top of that large tower," he said.

"Okay, then let's go!" Negi shouted.

On The Other Side Of The Portal

Negi and Adam walked off the platform, still feeling a little disoriented.

"Urgh, I knew I shouldn't have eaten that sandwich," said Adam.

"You didn't eat any sandwiches," Negi said.

"It's just a figure of speech," he moaned.

"No, it isn't," Negi replied.

"Whatever," Adam said.

"Well, anyways, where do we go?" Negi asked.

"I dunno, look for a sign that says, 'Negi Springfield, come over here please,'" Adam replied.

"Like that?"

"Yeah, like that... WAIT! WHY THE FUCK DOES THAT EXIST!? I WAS JUST JOKING!"

"..."

"WHAT!?"

"Nothing..."

"Whatever, let's just go over there," Adam sighed.

"Yeah! Let's go!" Negi shouted.

"Hn..." They began to walk towards the sign. As soon as they reached the sign, they saw a smaller inscription below the words. The inscription said, 'Out for lunch, please try again later.'

A vein popped out on Adam's forehead when he read that. 'If this is a joke, I will strangle the idiot who thought of it.' he thought.

Suddenly, a person popped out from behind a building and rushed over to the sign. "Oh, you must be Negi, correct?" he asked Adam.

"No, this little boy is Negi," he replied, pointing at Negi. The man blinked several times until what Adam said finally registered in his brain.

"... Are you kidding? I wasn't expecting a little kid to be helping me. Jeez, what are the magic schools coming to? Whatever, a job is a job. Come on, follow me. Oh, before I forget, my name is Shin. Yes, like the leg, now let's get a move on," he said.

"O-of course," Negi said, completely bewildered by the man's sudden change in attitude.

"Pick up the bags, and do it delicately, there're fragile things inside. Got that?"

"Y-yeah," he said as he gingerly picked it up and rushed over to the man's side, Adam trailing behind.

"Well, anyways, our ride should be here in a few minutes," Shin said. Sure enough, a large airship landed on the outskirts of the town. "Now, make sure that you place the bag on the red box not the orange one, even if the colors look the same."

"R-right."

"Come on, Negi, it's not gonna be that bad. I'm pretty sure you'll get used to it soon," Adam said as he tried to cheer Negi up. Keyword being 'tried'. In fact, this caused Negi to fall deeper into his bottomless pit of despair.

"Um... did I say something wrong?" Adam asked himself. "Yep," came a reply from someone inside a cabin.

'How the heck do they hear from in there,' he thought to himself.

"Yeah, it's kinda interesting, right?" asked another crew member.

"NOW FREAKING MIND READING!? WHO THE HECK IS DIRECTING THIS DAMN STORY!?" shouted Adam.

"You know, you really shouldn't be criticizing the author, he'll get his revenge," replied yet another crew member.

"Don't pay attention to him, he's been delusional ever since that day that he was abducted by that dragon," said the second crew member, "Now he thinks that his life and everything is being directed by some godforsaken idiot."

"You'll be punished for that," said the third crew member, backing away from him.

"Right, how?" he asked.

"I dunno, but you will." And as if cued by some random hand of god, lightning struck the poor soul, making him fall to the floor, unconscious. "Told you."

Please r&r.
