Well of course. I expected it to be quiet...in a ways. Anywho. Let's go. This writer is dying for progress.

Alomegauge Productions Presents: Challenge MFT
Banes of life...
"Oiiiii! Chisame, you get back here with my darn mouse! I need that thing!"
Chasing her about, I realize a camera is following me, and I can only shake my head at the operator. How nice. Try to embarrass me, ehh? Get that thing away from me, I'll be there just in a few darn seconds...
"CHISAME!"
....A bit later...
"Welcome to Alomegauge Productions, I am your host, Finalage is my name, and Challenges are my game...Chisame, I thank you if you would not touch my mouse again...my mouse, not yours...okay..."
I raise my eyebrows as someone cues "Careless Whisper" as intro music...the heck? One of the staff seems to go beet red. Oops...oh no, I have no idea how that got there. Narrowing my eyes at them, I cue "Budget Meeting" - Hans Zimmer, as a cover up.
"Okay. So we have a lot of work to do, don't we...? Let's look at our first letter shall we?...Oh...thank you for finally getting the right track...I much prefer Sons of War...although a bit over the top much..?"
Reaching out to slit the letter open, I realize it's another from Galerians. Well, let's see what we've got, hmm?
"Y'know, don't give up just yet. Toughen up, having few reviews might mean that you're good enough so no critics are need to be done. Heck, if you need one, at the very least, you can always count on me.
Hnh, now I've got a little challenge. Even if it's quite long overdue, but I just watched the Twilight on my TV and it finished just a while ago. Now, for the challenge, since Negi is now also a vampire, how about we make Edward and this bitter boy to go against each other? You can make it in the same background as you like, and there is no time limit.
If you're not familiar with Twilight, however, you can just answer these questions I've prepared, based on the last chapter of Young Negi...
1. Issac, from what I read, Finalage said that you and Jasnin had hugged in MANY occasion (in the case that heat is only provided if you two do that). She is extremely beautiful, isn't she? Have you ever, EVER, felt at least a twinge of other feeling than a brotherly affection?
2. Kago, you are, as Finalage have elaborated, a jack of all trades. Versatile, but master to none. So tell me, have you ever gotten a problem regarding this weakness?
3. Hey, Negi! My bittersweet, wacky teacher! How're you doing?! Okay, enough with the pleasantries. You've always thought that you're better off dead, and since you're a catalyst, that seems inevitable, anyway. So, could you tell me, how do you plan of conversing that truth to, of all people, Anya?
There you go!"
"I rarely give up, and as I have grown older, I've only become more stubborn in that area. However, I am one of those who have never read Twilight...Wikipedia gives me a token amount of experience here, but lets see...I knew it, there had to be a Twilight Wiki...no problems with the sun, hmm? No need to breathe? Able to stop a car...heh, Negi could do that as a human, with his magic of course...typical attractiveness to food...Negi...Negi will KILL this dude. Forget about mind reading, Negi is one himself, and can shield himself too...I have a feeling you hated Twilight...only reason you would subject the poor guy to such punishment...Magica Erebia plus vamprism...but..do you want to fight Negi?"
"You're kidding me right? Do I want to beat the crap out of someone? Holy hell, you shouldn't need to ask that question, damn."
"Fine, but first, the questions...uhh...the questions...I said get back here you chibi vampire teacher mage...thingie! Issac!"
Having already seen his sister sent away, the boy looked at me. At me of all people. Look at the camera damn it! You don't need my permission to answer a question! After a second or two, he realizes what my signals mean and looks at the camera.
"...We have needed to keep contact for warmth, yes...but feel for her in any other way besides a brother? I was once her servant, and felt her… my master...but I know that isn't what you mean, as you mentioned her beauty...I...well... I've always looked at her as something to protect, something to serve. It has only come recently that I have begun to look at her as simply another individual, my sister, on the same plain as I...however, one must love their masters, adore them. Coming from a place lower than her, I would have to say yes...you...want to be noticed, want to be praised, and that does come into a kind of one way love, a one way worship..."
Sighing, he looks away at Negi, who raises an eyes. The hell you looking at me for, was the face he had on to give Issac, and the boy sighed again.
"Now however? Or during our travels? She is a beautiful girl yes, and I count the man lucky if he can snare her...of course, he'll have to pass my inspection if he wants to get near her in any way...but right now, I'm trying to get used to seeing her as an equal...I'm still unpacking my feelings at the moment...so I can't really, honestly, answer your question to the best of my ability. I hope what I gave you can help though..."
"...Well...that was a very thorough answer...but you still didn't really answer the whole question Issac...I'm gonna hold you to that...Kago our friend, you're next!"
The priest smiles a bit nervously. Camera's really aren't his thing...he's no T.V priest...but still, he's here, and he's in a safe...well, as safe as he could be at the moment...environment, so...he looked at me. Why the heck is everybody looking at me? Do I have egg on my face?! The camera is over there!
"Of course. The most recent being facing down Evangeline. You might have an idea, or perhaps you do not, of how terrifying it is to know you have just enough power to entertain one of her caliber, but who, in the face of her might, can do absolutely nothing..."
Looking to the floor now, he looks up in time to almost have the microphone poke out one of his eyes. Yo, deacons, don't pull in so darn much, give the holy man a break!
"...My power is progressed, a bit more than others, yes, but its usefulness is limited. I once had to exorcise a demon from a little boy...his presence was poisoning him...I tried, and I tried...but I simply did not have enough mastery in my art to free the boy. The demon finally got annoyed and left on his own, to attack me and try to take over me..."
"I defeated it, but the point was that I failed to purify the boy, and could not save him...he died. Perhaps it was fate, or God's will, but I still feel as if my inability was the cause. I couldn't help but feel I had failed a trial...there are other times when I failed to give a vampire proper piece in its burial and it came back alive, or something similar, always I fixed the problem but...it's better to do things right the first time..."
"Okay...good answer Kago...although you don't need to look so down, we all make mistakes, ehh? Well, except Negi over here, but he ain't perfect either. Speaking of which, chibi boy, you're up!"
"Call me that again, and you'll be retiring from writing, permanently."
Negi looks at me as he says that, just for spite, lingering so I would have had all the question takers view me as an irk. He then looks to the camera.
"Galerians was it? Yes. Okay man. Everybody dies. You, Me, that annoying cameraman over there... get that mike out of my vision or I'll use it's wire to strangle you by the way...thank you...I'll just be living a bit shorter than all ya'll. How am I gonna explain it to Anya? It won't need explaining. I won't die due to magic sickness, I'm going to die due to that stupid curse a catalyst has of pulling too much magic. One day, I'll just draw to much magic into myself and then, BOOM, you've got some fried Negi Legs and a few wings...."
"...Aint' nothin' to explain. The whole kitten caboodle will see it happen. What's there to explain? That it was destined? That's just unheedy depression, extra weight, why do you think I hid it from my mum? Only, she had to be nosy, too bad....so to answer your question, excuse the rant...I ain't gonna tell her jack. No point, no need, and frankly, no time. If I have got time to spout useless statements, I'll use it to do just one more useful task...now I've got a battle to get to, where the hell is that Edward dude?"
Getting up before I can stop him, he walks off to find the famous vampire, leaving me to just stare at the empty seat, blinking.
"Okay. People, if you want this shot...get the heck out of this building!"
As for you all, can this writer who's never read a page of Twilight conquer his personality by just glancing at, of all things, a wiki page?!
Power Overload.
"There you are!"
Negi skids to a stop, kicking up dust from the pack dirt road he had been running along, his eyes fixed upon the back of a tall, pale young man. He turns to Negi, eyes shining an odd golden. So...this was the one who was looking for him...hmm? His speed just now...he was a vampire. What did he want? Just to fight? Why? Just to test himself? Just to prove himself...just because he wanted to beat someone up?! There was a lot of anger in this one...
"Shut your mental flapping, I can hear you, bast."
Mental flapping, as in, he himself could hear thoughts?
No time for coherent thought, not as Negi called up his illusion, becoming the picture of his father only younger and far more...dark. He smiled, the left side of his lips curling up into a smirk. What was this? Was his power to change his appearance at will? Negi lunged at him, forcing Edward to take a quick step backwards before dashing off to the side.
Negi followed the movement, kicking off a nearby tree for extra speed and, a faster change of direction. Golden eyes widened as he once more quickly dodged, only to find the boy once more in his face, as if by...magic.
Power condensed in Negi's hands, this really wasn't fair...not as Negi sent arrows of darkness sheeting at the vampire, making him put his renowned speed to good use...still, Negi appeared right behind him, launching off the ground to pound home his elbow into the small of the other's back, and disappear again to kick him in the temple with a roundhouse, knocking him to the ground.
What kind of trick is this?! Where is his speed coming from, and what were those arrows?! Who is this guy...ahh, he's going to come from the left...but his mind...it's moving so fast, it's confusing me more than it's helping me to read him!
"Then don't read my mind yah newbie."
Spinning about, Edward ducks under a straight punch to the nose and plants his fist into the other's gut, sending him skidding back. Negi launches himself off the even as he skids, forcing himself forth and blasting into the other with a full body tackle, knocking him back.
Speed, power and skill. His mind runs like one of my cars when I put it through its paces. Where is his weakness?!
"You aren't powerful enough to find it, just lay down if you give up, I won't mind."
Not when you've done this to me... not now, now I have to fight you!
Skidding to a stop, the vampire forgets to breathe, and for once, it doesn't matter, not as he kicks off the ground and rushes Negi, barely missing with one of his fists, which Negi grabs as he side steps out of the way and tugs him forth into his own fist, impounding the other's nose.
Edward kicks out, his boot catching Negi and blasting him off as Negi begins another unincanted chant for arrows, calling out for them as he rushes the elder vampire, his feet swinging out as he stops short, but Edward grabs his legs and tosses him.
Negi shoots off his arrows again, making the other dance once more, but he pulls closer all the time.
All I have to do is avoid the arrows. That's all. He can't do anything else, he's fast, and strong, but I can do this...wait...what's he doing now?
Negi had stopped as Edward had been thinking, gathering power to himself. It was true, this boy was most likely nothing to him, but that just made it all the more fun to see him run and squirm in his thoughts. The boy's fists darkened and symbols exploded from them as he smiled wickedly.
"All I have to do is avoid his arrows! That's what he thinks. Well boy, while you were thinking....I was gathering! Here we are!"
Edward had been coming closer, so Negi rushed him, moving impossibly fast, the other vampire barely was bale to follow his movements as he felt a fist impact his body, sending him soaring into the air, giving him wings.
Negi jumped after him, chanting under his breath as he watched the other arc in the sky and begin to fall.
"κατατρώωίσωςαπότοδιάστημα, O κεραυνός wrap τριγύρωόπλο O πάγοs! ριζώνωέξω my εχθρός , τσεκούριτουεκδίκηση , έκλειψη!"
Tοσθμβολαιονδιακονετομοι, βασιλισκοθρανιονον. Επιγενεντηετο, απολειακεραθνεηοστιμεισπτειρει. Ηεκατονκατισκαικηιλιακισαστραπσατο. ΚηιλιαρκοθΑστραπε!
What...is...that?!
Even as he manages to land on his feet, he cannot help but take a step back as the boy lands, jumping away from a huge axe seemingly made of ice and coursing lightning, as it blast home on the ground, and can only twisting every which way to avoid the lightning that continued to rain upon the ground, once, twice, one hundred times, a thousand times.
Negi laughs, Magic, dark magic, condensing upon his finger tips as he rushes in and forces his elbow into the other's gut, blasting him into and through a tree.
What manner of power is...this...Volturi?!
No poor boy, not Volturi. Negi smiles as he sees the other get up, but slowly, too slowly. It puts him off. Well, he had been told this would be easy, but not this easy. He holds out his hand.
"Confuto!"
Sagitta Magica, Centum meit Centum, Spiritus...Ingus!
Holding out his hands to the trapped vampires, he proceeds to roast him alive...
Stop, stop! This is a bit too much torture...especially for those Twilight fans out there...we get the point, Negi would kick his arse...without the ability mentioned anywhere of being able to fly, use magic besides telepathy, and his speed only being marginally better than most vampires, his strength nothing incredible...he'd be whooped raw by Negi...
Okay...okay...here...now, to work on completing Young Negi...send your reveiws...I'd like to see them!
