(Welcome back guys, now that the Eva arc is out of the way I can do what I feel like before deciding to go into the Kyoto arc.)
One afternoon in class 3A Negi and Dustin were teaching class peacefully while Zyphon monitored the class in case Asuna and Ayaka were to get into a petty fight. After the Evangeline incident Eva had done just what Negi ordered her to do and started attending classes again. But what the boys didn't know was today they would be getting such a surprise.
"Well class is just about finished for today girls, Dustin and I are so glad you could behave so well." Negi said.
"Just keep it up and remember to not slack off." Dustin added.
Before any of the girls could leave Takahata entered, "Afternoon boys."
"Oh Takamichi." Negi greeted.
"What's the buzz man?" Dustin asked.
"Nothing serious, but I got a special surprise for you two."
"Oh really?" Dustin eyed him suspiciously.
Takahata turned to the door, "Alright come in."
The whole class turned and to Negi's surprise entering the room was Nekane and Anya, "Nekane, Anya?"
"Why hello Negi, you're looking very well." Nekane greeted.
"Well for a crybaby." Anya mumbled.
"I heard that!" Negi called.
"Hey it's good to see you two." Dustin went over with Negi.
"And it's good to see you Dustin." Nekane smiled.
Dustin turned to Anya, "So Anya how's London?"
"Very well thank you." Anya held her head up high.
"Ah yes, everyone I'd like you to meet someone this is my sister Nekane and my friend Anya. And I'd like to introduce you two to my students of class 3A." Negi introduced them.
"Very nice to meet you all, I hope we can get along well." Nekane greeted.
Anya scowled and squinted, 'These are Negi's students? Not that I didn't know, but they're all girls. Not to mention their breasts are these really the breasts of junior high girls? What was the head magus and Nekane thinking leaving Negi in this den of impurity! And what's with the ghost and the robot?' she thought.
Ayaka stood up, "Greetings and welcome to 3A I am Ayaka Yukihiro the class rep, if you have any questions please ask me."
"Arigato Ayaka." Nekane answered.
"Not that I'm not glad to see you all but what're you doing here?" Negi asked.
Anya huffed, "We were called to see you of course."
"Takamichi sent us a letter a few days ago and invited us out." Nekane explained.
"Takamichi." Negi smiled.
"Thought you could use a little visit." The older teacher replied.
Nekane turned to Dustin, "We've heard about how you have been helping Negi along with his job, and I'm so grateful."
"Hey that's my job Nekane, after all there ain't any obstacle here I couldn't handle especially with my pal." Dustin replied proudly.
"Is that so boy?" Dustin gasped as he looked in the doorway seeing his father enter, "I'd look forward to here about these obstacles."
"Dad?" Dustin gasped.
Yuna whispered to Ako and Akira, "Wow that guy's Dustin-kun's pop?"
"Dad!" Dustin ran over and hugged his dad, "I'm so glad you could come."
"Well when Takamichi sent me the letter I figured you were overdo for a visit from me." Roswell explained.
"Don't overlook me now." Entering was an adult man roughly Takahata's age dressed in a gray suit and black tie, he had short brown hair with a touch of gray to it and wore glasses.
"Professor Kaufman!" Dustin gasped.
"How's my young scholar?" The professor ruffled his hair.
"Doing great, oh that's right," Dustin gathered the two and turned to the class, "Ladies allow me to present to you my father Roswell Bowers and my favorite Harvard teacher Professor Arthur Kaufman."
"Delighted to meet you ladies, hope my son hasn't been too much trouble to you and vice versa." Roswell smirked at his son who gawked.
"Dad!" he whined and the girls giggled.
"I'm so glad I could finally meet class 3A my pupils told me so much about in his letters." Arthur greeted.
The girls were respectable while Asuna blushed and mumbled to herself, "I think he's hot."
Konoka giggled, "Oh Asuna."
Zyphon approached, "Ah masters Roswell and Arthur, how fortuitous. I'm so glad you could come."
"Wouldn't have missed it Zyphon, I trust you've been helping your creator without problems?" Arthur asked.
"None at all." Zyphon answered.
Before Negi and Dustin could speak a double call was heard from behind the adults, "Dustin! Negi!"
The two boys turned and were surprised as two more boys both appearing to be twelve if not eleven and a half years old tackled them to the floor surprising the girls. Both professors were each caught in a headlock by one of the boys each getting noogied.
The first one holding Dustin in a headlock had short red hair and green eyes; he wore a pair of red cross trainers, jeans, and a green tank top, "Dustin you knucklehead you!" he noogied Dustin.
"Elroy watch the spikes!" Dustin groaned from the noogie.
The second boy who had Negi in a headlock had short blonde hair, blue eyes covered by blue lensed sunglasses; his attire included green sneakers, blue jean shorts, and a purple shirt with black swirl images, "Negi you silly little serpent you!"
"Jethro, I can't breathe!" Negi wheezed from the headlock.
The girls were surprised with some laughing at their professor's misfortune. Entering the class like regular people were two girls one eleven and one ten. The eleven year old girl had long chestnut colored hair, violet eyes, wore sandals, blue jean short shorts, and an aqua blue top, "Oh those boys." She chuckled to the ten year old girl.
The ten year old girl had blonde hair that wasn't too bright and not too dark done up in a ponytail and her eyes were a midnight blue color, her attire included brown dress shoes, black and white pants, and a white short sleeved shirt, "Yes though what'd you expect?" she asked with a smile.
Dustin got out of his headlock seeing the girls particularly the older girl, "Hey Jade the good time gal!"
"Nice to see you again Dustin." Jade and Dustin hugged.
Negi smiled until he heard the other girl, "Hello Negi."
Negi turned to the girl seeing she was hiding a blush, "Rin? Is that really you?"
Rin smiled, "Who else?"
Negi smiled embracing her and the girl blushed while the class watched in envy while Anya watched with a frown. Dustin noticed this and a sly smirk grew on his face, he walked over to them, "Oh so this is the Rin you've been telling me about Negi?"
Negi snapping out of it answered, "Yes, Rin this is my friend Dustin Bowers."
"Nice to meet you Dustin." Rin greeted him.
"Charmed and delighted, Negi's old me a lot about you, but his description doesn't do you justice." Dustin grinned.
"Dustin please!" Negi pleased while blushing.
"Typical smooth talking Dustin." Anya huffed.
"Better to be a smooth talker than to be a no talker." Dustin joked making Elroy and Jethro laugh.
Rin spoke to Negi, "So this is where your career's taken you?"
"Yes, and it's been very good for me and Dustin." Negi answered followed up by Anya.
"I'll bet it's been good for you surrounded by so many girls."
"Jealous much?" Jethro whispered to Dustin who chuckled
Rin continued, "Well I'm glad it has and this is a beautiful country too."
Negi and Dustin noticed everyone was looking at them, "Oh sorry girls please allow us to introduce our other friends."
"I'd like you girls to meet Elroy Zoil, Jethro Scott, and Jade Wallace my Brooklyn all stars." Dustin introduced them.
"Hey there ladies, Dustin's mentioned you all in his letters and I can see he wasn't exaggerating." Elroy said.
"I'm go glad I could finally meet you." Jade added.
Jethro was mumbling to himself while looking at the girls as if he was analyzing them, "I would do her, I'd do her, and I'd do her, wouldn't do her, wouldn't do her, lose the glasses and we'll talk."
Jade having heard him bonked him on the head, "Will you not think with your hormones?"
"Jeez Jade, could you hit any harder?" Jethro rubbed his head, "Besides I was just analyzing to see who I would love to have a girlfriend." He whispered.
Dustin spoke, "Calm down guys, don't embarrass me in front of the girls."
"Sorry man, still you're so lucky." Elroy said.
"I tell myself that every day." Dustin replied.
Negi then introduced his friend, "And this is my second friend from Wales, Serenity Kaname Hikari."
"Please call me Rin." She replied.
Dustin smirked counting down, "3, 2, 1…"
"Kawaii!" the girls bolted form their seats mob cuddling the kids.
"Wow the girls here are really affectionate." Jethro said as he was nuzzled by Haruna.
"No kidding I wish I was born here." Elroy said as he was hugged from behind by Sakurako.
Jade and Rin were trying their best to cope with being cuddled but Anya was ready to pass out unable to handle the marshmallow hell Chizuru was unintentionally putting her through.
Soon class was over and once Negi and Dustin changed into their casual wear, they and the other kids walked around campus while being accompanied by Zyphon, "Man this academy is cool." Jethro said.
"Yeah and swarming with girls, if we weren't going into puberty we wouldn't know how exciting this place can really be." Elroy added.
Anya huffed, "You boys it's the breasts isn't it?"
"Hey no need to feel inferior Anya." Dustin teased.
"I am not feeling inferior!" Anya shouted, "I'm just concerned about Negi is all."
"Concerned about me how?" Negi asked.
"Letting yourself being draped over women, it's hard to believe you're taking your career seriously." Anya replied.
Negi frowned wanting to talk back but Dustin stopped him but didn't succeed in stopping Rin, "Why didn't you just leave your petty competitive rivalry back home?"
The two girls glared at each other until Domino flew from Dustin's shoulder landing on Rin's now-now ladies let's not start any of this squabbling, it reminds me too much of Asuna and Ayaka anyway."
"Agreed so Anya how's London doing?" Negi asked.
Anya calmed down, "Well it's going very well, I've become quite popular among the locals with my fortune telling."
"Well that's good, see you're doing alright without need to be too into your assignment." Dustin said.
"I guess." Anya sighed.
"And what about you three?" Negi turned to Dustin's friends.
"Well working as assistant at my uncle's training dojo has been quite challenging, but in Japanese terms, I've definitely become the sempai." Elroy answered.
"Man you're so lucky, I still have to work part time at my cousin's comic book shop. Doesn't exactly do much in terms of Spirit Warrior training, but it does have it's perks, all the comics I can read." Jethro added.
"And what about you Jade?" Dustin asked.
"Well helping out at my mom's gymnastics gymnasium has done wonders in terms of my athletic skill enhancing my spirit fighting skills," Jade admitted until she noticed Negi and Rin going off by themselves, "Well looks like those two really intend to catch up."
The others noticed this and Anya gasped, "Negi how dare you go off with her so secretly!" she tired to follow but was grabbed on the shoulder by Zyphon who held her above the ground up to his level.
"Now mistress Anya, let them have their time alone." Zyphon said.
"Yeah Anya besides she's a friend of Negi's he hasn't seen in a long time." Dustin added.
As the two walked Negi spoke, "So what do you think of Mahora academy Rin?"
"I think it's a wonderful place." Rin smiled.
"You know ever since I left Wales I've been thinking about you." Negi admitted.
"Really?" she asked.
"Yes, aside from Anya you were my only friend in Wales." Negi said.
Rin touched Negi's hand, "I really missed you too."
The two smiled until Chamo dropped in, "Hey there, whatcha guys talking about?"
"Oh Chamo don't do that." Negi chided.
Chamo looked at the girl, "Well hey there princess."
"Hello Chamo." Rin pat him.
"Oh yeah I missed this, you always knew where to pet the right spots." Chamo sighed enjoying it too much.
"So have you been told of what's been happening here with me and Dustin?" Negi asked curiously.
Rin blushed, "More or less."
"Even me making pactios with..." Negi began.
"Yes, but its ok I'm not discouraged. I know you needed to in order to fight Evangeline," She smiled, "I was just surprised you'd run into such a problem here."
"Shocked me to." Negi admitted.
Chamo looked up at the two and smirked, "Say there Rin, how about making a probationary contract with Negi here?"
"What Chamo what're you saying?" Negi called.
Chamo smirked to his brother, "Come on Negi you already made a pactio with Kaede, why not another, besides Sayo's also been egging for one as well. Plus Dustin's already got two, you wanna let him have all the fun?"
Negi thought about it, "Well it would be nice to have more help," he then thought, 'But like it'll matter Rin's got to go back anyway.'
"Enter a probationary contract with Negi?" Rin asked.
"Yeah, after all the more partners he has the stronger he'll be in terms of force." Chamo explained.
Rin looked at Negi both blushing, "Negi would it be alright with you if I did?"
"What, well uh I wouldn't mind if you wouldn't." Negi said.
"So what's the verdict?" Chamo asked with a grin.
"Let's at least hear what Rin thinks." Negi replied as Rin smiled.
"I would be honored to be your partner."
"Alright then let's do it now." Chamo drew up a circle on the ground.
Negi blushed while thinking, 'This isn't going to be like kissing Kaede.'
Rin thought, 'My first kiss and it's going to be with Negi.'
The two stood in the circle and Rin moved in closer until their lips met. The symbol below them glowed as Rin was given magic power, "Pactio!" Chamo called.
The two broke and they blushed, "Wow." Rin said.
"You were perfect." Negi admitted.
"I'll say she was, here ya go kid, this one's for you." Chamo handed Rin her pactio card.
'Proof of my contract.' Rin thought with a blush until a clear of someone's throat brought them out of their thoughts and they turned seeing Dustin, his friends, Zyphon, and a fuming Anya.
"So ya really did it Negi?" Dustin asked.
"Way to go man." Elroy encouraged him.
"You sly mage you." Jade smirked.
"I envy you Negi." Jethro added.
Anya frowned with a dark aura emitting from her, "WHY YOU!" before she could go postal on Negi Zyphon once again held her back.
"Guess now we're even in terms of partners Negi." Dustin patted his back.
"Yes so it seems." Negi chuckled.
"Well you guys are getting along well." Mana said as she, Kaede, and Kasuga approached.
"Hey girls how's it going?" Dustin asked.
"Same old Dustin-kun." Kasuga answered.
Mana looked at Dustin's friend, "So three more spirit warriors like yourself?"
"You bet, guys this is Mana Tatsumiya my first partner, and right there is Kasuga Misora, my second one." Dustin introduced them.
"Wow, you know how to pick them." Jethro admitted.
"And this is Kaede Nagase my first partner." Negi introduced.
"Ah the ninja girl you mentioned." Rin said.
Anya just squinted as Kaede's rack size feeling intimidated even if she wouldn't admit it, "Come on everyone let's show the guys around campus." Dustin suggested and the three older girls agreed.
Elsewhere in the cafeteria lounge Nekane, Roswell, Takahata, and Arthur were seated and talking, "I'm so glad Negi and Dustin have been doing well here." Nekane said.
"Yes they've made quite an influence on the girls let me tell you." Takahata chuckled.
"I can tell." Roswell chuckled as well.
"Your story sounds interesting," Eva approached with Chachamaru, "Mind if I join in?"
"Not at all Eva." Takahata said as she took a seat.
"Well Evangeline fifteen years, you haven't changed a bit." Roswell teased.
"Speak for yourself." Eva answered.
"I've heard you've been giving my brother and Dustin quite a lot of trouble." Nekane said.
"It was nothing personal." Eva turned her head hiding a blush.
"Personally I'm glad you did," Roswell began, "Gave my son a bit of a challenge and it'll only make him stronger, so thank you."
"Don't mention it." Eva replied, "And I don't suppose you have any idea where Nagi is?"
"If I did I would've dragged him here."
"I'm sure you would've." Eva replied.
"By the way Eva, the dean asked me to let you know about your living condition." Takahata said.
"What about them?" Eva raised a brow.
"He wanted me to tell you that you and Chachamaru will be getting a new roommate."
"What?" she gasped, "Who?" Takahata smiled giving her the hint, "I see. Well I suppose of it's her I can deal with it."
"Shall I set up the spare room?" Chachamaru asked.
"Do what you must." Eva sighed.
Suddenly they saw most of the girls from class gather around, "Mr. Bowers." Sakurako said.
"Yes ladies?"
"We were wondering and couldn't help but notice that only you came here." Haruna said.
"Yeah is Dustin's mom busy or something?" Kazumi asked.
Roswell was silent a bit seeing Dustin didn't tell them about his mother, so he decided, "Well girls the reason why she's not here is… She's dead."
"What?" the girls asked confused.
"Yeah my wife Bianca and Dustin's mom, she's dead. Ever since Dustin was two."
The girl's eyes started swelling up with tears, "We had no idea." Fumika said.
"To grow up without a mother." Yuna added.
"Poor Dustin-kun." Kazumi said.
Roswell replied, "Yeah it wasn't easy raising Dustin by myself. And he misses her almost as much as I do."
Arthur comforted him, "I'm sure she'd be very proud at how you raised him."
"I'll vouch for that, after all he's such a great teacher." Kazumi added.
Roswell smiled, "Thanks girls, try and keep my son and Negi happy, they need it more than you know."
Meanwhile back with the guys who were still touring Mahora, "So Rin you are a princess from a land far away?" Kaede asked.
"That's right the Kingdom of Light, though my parents have kept me locked away in my own home fearing of letting me out risking my capture by others who would sought to use my hidden powers. It was thanks to Takamichi and the head Magus of the magic academy forming a compromise with my parents allowing me to live at the magic academy where I would be safe and allowed to see the outside world." Rin explained.
"That's how Rin and I met, though she couldn't officially become a mage like myself and Anya she did study a bit of magic with us, mostly beginners magic." Negi explained.
Dustin smiled until he spotted Chao and Satsuki's food stand the Chao Bao Zi, "Hey guys look! Come on I'll buy us some lunch!" they went over taking a seat by the stand, "Afternoon Chao, Satsuki."
"Afternoon everyone." Chao greeted them.
"What brings you here?" Satsuki asked.
"We're looking for some chow, and we know you two are the best in the whole academy." Dustin said.
"Well don't worry we'll fix you all up something real good." Chao assured them.
"Can't wait." Elroy rubbed his hands together.
"So how do you guys like our school?" Satsuki asked as she and Chao got to work.
"It's amazing, you girls sure are active on these grounds." Elroy replied.
"Yeah and we hear your library is about as big as any other one in the world." Jade added.
"It's not so bad I'll say that." Anya admitted.
"Here ya go." Satsuki said as she and Chao sat their meal down.
"Wow Chinese food looks delicious." Elroy said.
"Gorging time!" Jethro called as they chowed down.
"Mm, this is really good." Jade said between bites.
"Yeah?" Chao asked feeling glad.
"Wow you two really are good cooks." Elroy admired.
"Ya darn right they are." Dustin said.
"So what're you three into?" Kaede asked Dustin's friends.
"Elroy's a martial arts instructor with his uncle, his famous known style is turning dance steps into self defense." Dustin explained.
"I got the moves." Elroy pumped a fist.
"Jethro's a comic fanatic, and is all about the scientific world as well as aliens." Dustin explained.
"It's my dream to one day fly out to California and see Comic-con followed by a road trip of the most famous UFO hotspots." Jethro added.
"Jade here's a gymnast, she could very well be on par with Makie, though seeing what Makie can do with her ribbon, Jade couldn't compare. No offence." Dustin continued.
"None taken." Jade answered.
"Well lookey here aren't you all acting chummy?" Eva approached with her servant who bowed her head.
"Oh afternoon Evangeline." Negi greeted.
Elroy looked back forth between Dustin and Evangeline, "This is the one you nailed the face?"
Eva's eyes widened, "YOU TOLD THEM THAT!"
"Yeah it was a huge accomplishment on my part." Dustin answered while Eva huffed.
'Is there something you need Evangeline?" Negi asked.
"Actually I came to give you a little heads up, 3A's getting a new student."
"New student?" Negi asked while Kaede, Kasuga, and Mana looked interested.
"That's right and it's someone here." Eva grinned.
Negi and Dustin turned to Jade, "Sorry wrong girl." She replied as they turned to Rin who was blushing.
"Rin?" Negi asked.
"Sorry I didn't tell you sooner I just wanted to surprise you." Rin explained.
"You're joining 3A?" Dustin asked.
"Takamichi had the dean enroll me here." She explained.
"Why that's wonderful!" Negi cheered.
"What? You're only joining the class so you can be near Negi!" Anya called.
"Anya please." Negi said wanting her to be silent.
"We'll it'll be good actually an even thirty two students." Dustin pointed out.
Kaede took a drink, "Then let's toast on our newest classmate."
Mana, Kasuga, Satsuki, Chao, Dustin, his friends, Negi, and Anya raised their drinks together, "Cheers!"
Later that afternoon at the school gymnasium the girls of 3A along with Nekane, Anya, Jade, Roswell, Arthur, Takahata, Shizuna, and Zyphon were in seats before a giant soundstage.
"Now what's all this about?" Nekane asked eagerly.
"Dustin and Negi said they wanted to give you all a bit of a thank you for coming out." Takahata answered.
"So then where are Elroy and Jethro?" Jade asked while Anya shrugged.
The girls were seated, "Oh this is so exciting." Sakurako squealed.
"I wonder what Negi-kun and Dustin-kun are planning this time?" Madoka asked.
Suddenly Dustin's voice was heard from the stage but no one could see him, "Welcome ladies and gentleman, so glad you could all join us. I'm proud to present to you for the first time at Mahora the Dream Team."
The girls were confused until they heard music begin and a light shined down on Dustin on the stage who started singing. Soon a light shined down on each of the boys as they each took a verse and began singing like a boy band. The girls cheered as the four boys danced in perfect sync while the adults enjoyed the performance as well.
Negi walked to the edge of the stage looking down at Makie offering his hand making her blush as she took it and was pulled up onto the stage. Dustin went to the other side of the stage to the edge where Mana sat offering her his hand. Smiling she accepted it and joined him. Mana and Makie tried dancing a bit along side the boys, even if they weren't able to dance to the degree they were. As they sang, Haruna was busy sketching and Kazumi was taking pictures.
All four boys after finishing their song, took the center and posed while Makie and Mana stood on both sides of the boys.
The girls cheered with applause as the boys took a bow while Makie hugged Negi for bringing her up on stage while Mana ruffled Dustin's hair. Ayaka made her way up the stage and spoke.
"Arigato Negi-sensei and Dustin-sensei for such a wonderful performance. And in fact we of class 3A have decided to put on a show of our own for you all as well."
"You have?" Negi asked.
"Alright." Dustin added as the boys went to take seats while the girls took a spot on the stage.
"This is a little piece in honor of our senseis and as a welcome to our newest classmate Rin." Kazumi explained as she got back into position. Music started playing until the girls started singing doing little dance steps and gestures of their own while singing a song known as Pink Generation.
Negi, Dustin, Elroy, and Jethro were amazed at the girls performance and started clapping along. Jade started copying most of their hand gestures in her seat while Anya just sat back watching.
"Yeah ladies rock on!" Dustin called with Elroy and Jethro.
"What a splendid performance." Zyphon said.
When the song ended the group cheered for the girls as Fuka and Fumika ran off stage and dragged Rin on stage to join them and she stood with the girls waving at Negi who waved back.
Dustin turned to his pal, "Well Negi, looks like our class has gotten a whole lot more interesting."
"Agreed Dustin, agreed." Negi admitted.
(And that's the chapter folks, I added an OC to also become part of Negi's harem and no I'm not making Jade part of Dustin's nor will the other boys be getting one they're visiting for a short time before returning to New York. See ya next time readers.)
