The Knight of Mahora Academy

Period 5: First Day On the Other Job

2nd Late-Thanksgiving gift.

[[[[[[[[Knight]]]]]]]]

The small fox yawned loudly and looked around as the urban zone started to change into a section of the forest. He was tagging along with the brat after he had gotten changed out of his uniform and had to come all the way out here for his guard duty. He looked over to his side at Naruto's head as his focus was on something else. "Hey, did Bakamichi tell you how long this was going to take? He kicked us out of his room and I want to find our new place as soon as possible."

Naruto just concentrated on a document he was reading on his phone.

"What do you feel like eating tonight? I thought I'd pop up near one of those child homes, sneaking into their rooms and chow down on some chewy meat. Maybe find some abandoned kittens around here as dessert."

Naruto just kept walking forward and looked at his phone.

"Hi, I'm a shrimpy whiskered blond bitch. I love the smell of my own farts and I have a tiny-"

Naruto stopped in the middle of the forest and grabbed Kyūbi's ears so he could glare at the fox with hatred burning in the depths of his eyes. "I don't want to hear another word come out of your mouth for the rest of my life you god damn Fleabag."

"And the boy speaks again."

"You snuck into their changing room and made me watch as they undressed! What am I going to do if they found out about that?"

"I don't care. I thought you males go frantic at the sight of female skin, that's what Rakan would say." Kyūbi pulled his ears out of Naruto's grip and started to match his heated glare with one of his own, "And besides, you started it when you decided to insult the great me you bastard. This is just a remeinder; you don't fuck with Kyūbi!"

"I was just making sure that the girls got a warning about a centuries old demon that sticks to my shoulder like my own personal devil."

"I basically am your own personal demon."

"Oh shut up." Naruto went back to looking down at his phone and reading the screen. Kyūbi raised his brow and leaned down from his perch to look at it.

"What are you reading? Shouldn't you be getting ready for the job in a minute?"

"Does it matter?" Kyūbi just stared at Naruto and unnerved him with his eyes. "Whatever. I'm just looking at the roster for Negi's class. If that's gonna be my main job then I want to make sure I do it right."

"Wanna put a face to the body?"

"Eat a dick."

Kyūbi just shrugged his shoulders and looked back ahead. "I gotta be honest, I'm surprised you didn't just push every girl out of the way and just tackled the little princess girl to the ground. Good job."

"Shut up. I met her yesterday by coincidence, I screwed up and I made a bad impression. Plus you heard Michi, the Asuna from back then isn't the same as she is now." Naruto retorted with a cold look forward to where they were heading, "There's no point trying to act like you know a person who doesn't remember you. It would hurt too much."

Kyūbi just stared at Naruto for a moment before looking forward as well. He decided to honor his decision and let the past go. Even when he didn't give much attention to all these humans, he had to admit that the bell-wearing girl was much different compared to what she used to be. Like a completely different person.

Like someone who wasn't forced to experience all of those atrocities.

Kyūbi just smugly sneered at Naruto out of the corner of his eye, "Menma?"

Naruto placed his hand over the fox's muzzle and brought a finger to his lips, signaling him to stay quiet. "We're here."

The wandering duo came across a small clearing between a group of trees. And in the clearing were three shadowy figures that each seemed to be attending to their individual tasks. One tall girl with blonde hair with black clothes and a white hat was off at the side with her back turned, impatiently stomping her foot. Second, a short vermillion-haired girl was contently sweeping the area around them with a cheerful hum. Finally, a well-dressed dark-skinned man was standing patiently at the center of the clearing and looking down at his wristwatch.

Naruto walked forward and got their full attention. The older man pushed his glasses up and looked toward Naruto, "You're late."

Naruto placed his hands together and bowed his head, "I'm very sorry about that. I had to change my wardrobe for the job and-"

"That's no excuse!" The pretty blonde girl marched forward until she was standing directly in front of the whiskered boy. They were around the same height so her angry glare was completely on his surprised face, "We have been waiting for almost ten minutes after the set meeting time! All of the other groups already left for their designated sections and we had to wait for you to grace us with your presence!"

Naruto looked at the girl in surprise, "I'm sorry, I was-"

She placed her hand in front of his face, "Don't try to get out of this! You maybe new to the school system but you have also been hired to work at one of the most renowned school systems in the world! And you need to hold that honor proudly and-"

The older man's hand clasped around her mouth and pulled her back, "That's enough Goodman-kun. I think he understands the consequences of his tasks." He coughed into his hand and looked back to the stunned blond boy. "I'm sorry about that. She may seem high-strung but she is also very passionate and one of our most talented students."

Naruto just blinked in surprise before he nodding his head towards the respectable man. "No that's fine. She was right. I have no excuse for my tardiness, please excuse me." He bowed his head slightly before standing back up.

"That's quite alright. But since Touko-sensei, Kataragi-sensei and Sister Shakti have already left for their sectors, please make sure you arrive on time when you have another job." Naruto gave the man a mock-salute to signify his comprehension. "My name is Gandofini, I'll be the designated group leader for this team."

He turned and motioned to the girls behind him. He first pointed to the tall girl in the strange one piece uniform, "The young lady you previously met is Takane D. Goodman-kun. One of the senior members of our magical student group and a 3rd year in Mahora's Ursula High-school District." Naruto looked back at the girl and waved at her, getting her to turn her head and huff indignantly.

"And the other girl besides her is Sakura Mei-kun. Our junior squad member and 2nd year student of Mahora Middle School." The young girl perked up at the mention of her name and stood at attention with a red face. Naruto looked over to the nervous little lady and smiled at her, causing her to blush at the attention she was getting and focus on her sweeping.

Gandofini looked down at his watch, "It's about time we start heading out. Goodman-kun," he fixed the pair of glasses on his face while facing the older girl. "You shall come with me to search the southwest sector. Sakura-kun, go with Uzumaki-sensei to the northeast sector and contact us if there are any complications."

"Y-yes Gandofini-sensei, understood." She bowed her head and looked over at the new teacher she was teamed up with, nervously shifting in place.

Takane walked over and grabbed Mei's shoulders. She firmly looked at the nervous girl, "Mei."

"Y-yes, Onee-sama?"

"Don't be nervous. You are a proud member of the Mahora magical community and my Minister. Hold that honor proudly on your chest, and never forget that."

Mei looked up at her Senpai and nodded her head happily, "Of course, Onee-sama!"

Takane smiled at the young girl before her smile faded and she looked over the the other blond with a spiteful look. "And don't let what you've heard deter you, keep an eye on him." Mei made a noise of agreement and nodded her head.

Naruto just ignored their little conversation, even though he could hear it plain as day. He clapped his hands together and smiled, "Alright! Let's go!"

[[[[[[[[Knight]]]]]]]]

Naruto was quietly walking behind the 2nd year middle-schooler as she walked ahead of him. He stayed silent and just followed the girl who actually had an idea of the area, looking around the empty clearing and vacant street besides them. He looked at the back of the girl, "Sooo, your name is Sakura Mei-chan, right?"

She seemed to stiffen up when he asked that question, but she swallowed her fear and kept moving forward. Naruto and Kyūbi shared a look, shrugging their shoulders and looking back at the girl. "So how long have you been working for Mahora?"

She still didn't answer and left his answer hanging.

Naruto rubbed the back of his head, "Well this isn't working."

Both mages sensed a magical source pass through the field surrounding the academy. They both looked in the direction they sensed the magical power and ran towards it. Mei was using a spell to increase her speed while Naruto was simply running on base.

When the two mages arrived at the area, they met a pale man in a faded black cloak. He looked very sickly and was panting from running through the forest. He looked up at the two teenagers, "Who are you two supposed to be?" He said with a heavy European accent in his voice.

Naruto opened his mouth-

"We are two of Mahora Academy's magical guardians! We guard the campus from people who intrude through our barrier like you! Please leave now and we won't have to resort to physical measures to remove you!" Mei said sternly as she stepped in front of the intruding Mage and cut off Naruto's epic speech.

Seriously? He didn't study with Raka-Ji for so many years on hammy introductions just to be interrupted by a middle-schooler.

"I don't care. I'm just going to take some of your power." The foreign Mage stated as he started to walk away from them.

"Not so fast!" Mei pulled out a pale card from her uniform blouse and held it out in front of her. "Adeat!" Instantly, the card shined and the same broom she was holding before replaced it in her hands. While the invading Mage froze in shock and looked at the young girl in horror, Naruto saw the Pactio activation and whistled in surprise.

Mei twirled the broom in her hands before holding it in a back-grip to her arm, "I am Mei Sakura, and you are not allowed here!"

The foreign Mage growled angrily before his cloak flapped and he pulled out a wand of his own. "We'll see about that!"

"Naruto-sama, step back!"

Naruto's eyebrow raised, "Sama?"

"Maple Naple À La Mode Ex Somno Exsistat Exurens Salamandra Inimicum Involvat Igne! Captus Flammeus!" Mei swung her broom and several strings of fire were unleashed towards the black clad Mage. Even as the strengthened Fire magic attack flew at the man he whispered his activation code and aimed his wand down.

"Undans Paries Aquarius!" A large column of water bursted out of the ground and blocked the fire attacks as a screen of steam formed around the clashing techniques.

Mei nervously ran forward and held her broom behind her before swinging it out. It released a wave of Exarmatio that blew away the steam and revealed that the Mage was gone.

The intruder popped out behind a tree and swung his wand at the young lady. "Quīnquānginta Trēs Spiritus Aquarius! Sagitta Magica Series Aquarius!" 53 arrows of concentrated magic water flew out of his wand and flew at the girl.

She looked back in surprise before mounting her broom and flying out of the way of their wet explosion area. Her broom maneuvered and weaved around the stream lines and she tried her best to ignore the sound of their impacts.

Except when they started to thin out in numbers, one of them impacted against the back of her broom and caused it to shake. Mei squealed as her broom started to shake and the Sagitta Magica started to impact closer to her. One of them landed on the front of the broom and knocked it out of her grasp, causing her to fall off the side and careen towards the ground.

She closed her eyes and prepared to painfully bounce off the ground. Except the impact never came.

When she opened her eye, she was looking up at the face of the smiling blond as he held her in a bridal carry. Mei blushed at the close contact and Naruto smirked at the pale Mage, "Okay, my turn."

He gently placed her on her feet and walked forward. Until he abruptly stopped and grasped the fox on his shoulder by the nape of its neck. He turned over and handed the fox over to the red-headed girl, "Watch him. Oh and if he starts whispering ideas to you about overthrowing the human paradigm, just ignore that."

Mei looked frightened and slowly lowered her head to look at the seven-tailed fox. Just to get a cute pitying look from the animal as it widened its eyes to look innocent.

Naruto walked forward with a confidant smile on his face as the panting Mage glared at him. The whiskered Mage stopped a few feet away from him and stood firmly in place. "I'm sorry about this man. I don't have anything against you, honestly, but it's part of the job and I can't let you in."

The foreign Mage was taking several deep breathes and wiped the sweat off his face and chuckled. "What? You di-didn't just see what I did to your little friend over there? Do you really think you can take me?"

Naruto didn't look mad or insulted or anything, just indifferent. "Yes. Yes I do. In fact, I'm pretty sure Mei-chan still could have easily taken you if I didn't butt in when I did."

Mei's eyes turned into little black holes while the foreign Mage looked at Naruto in surprise. "She's a little inexperienced and a tad naive but she's still skilled enough to be a respected Mage in Mahora academy, and that ain't anything you should take lightly. The only reason I came in is because I haven't done any work in the last few days and I'm feeling flabby."

He pointed at the cloak wearing man's hunched over posture as he struggled to stay on his feet. "Plus I can see that your magic reserves are almost depleted. You've been trying to keep up with Mei-chan's skills and you've wasted most of your magical power doing so. Which explains why you came here to Mahora. Your trying to siphon off some of the magical power here to make yourself stronger."

The intruding Mage weakly panted as he forced himself to stand up straighter, "I love magic. All of my life I've been learning to use it enough to be a great Mage. But no matter how much my love for magic grew, my body was always been weak and fragile. How is that fair?! Why are there people in the world like the Thousand Master who has power to spare but when I want to become a Mage, I don't have enough magical power to keep going?! It's not fair!"

Mei became sort of sympathetic at his story while Naruto nodded his head slowly. "I'm sorry."

"If I can take some of the magic from this place, maybe I can be a better Mage. I just need to touch them, one touch, and I can take some of their magical power." The Mage looked down at his hand desperately with a crazed smile. "And if you are getting in my way, then I'll just take what I need from you."

Naruto closed his eyes and stood still as he thought about what his next move would be. He opened his eyes, "I'm sorry about your condition man, honestly. You're right, there are some people in the world with more power than they deserve. And some of them don't use magic in the way it was truly meant to be used for. But I can't let you go and drain our students just because you felt you were wrong'd. So either stand down and talk with us about what we could do..."

Naruto waved his hands over his head and three arrows of crackling lighting formed over his head. He glared at the Mage, "Or I'll take you down in 4 moves."

Mei and the Mage looked at the blond man in disbelief, Kyūbi just absentmindedly scratching his ears. The intruder just growled in anger and looked at Naruto in pure contempt. "If you think you can-"

"One"

One arrow shot out of the air and rocketed at the foreign Mage. The sickly man panicked and stumbled out of the way to dodge the attack. As the arrow flew past him, he looked back up to see Naruto standing a foot away from him. With a flick of his hand the next arrow impacted against the ground and caused the Mage to jump up in fright.

"Two and three."

The whiskered man pulled back and hit him with a vertical kick that sent him up in the air. Mei watching in amazement as the man flew several feet in the air and Naruto kept his leg 180 degrees up perfectly. As the Mage flew up in the air he looked down at Naruto with an evil smirk, not looking affected by the kick that pushed him off the ground.

"Did you think that was enough?! My Deflexio is strong enough to take any two-bit fighter's kick like it was nothing." His arms popped out of his cloak and he reached toward Naruto, "Your magic is mine!"

"Four."

Naruto spun on his left foot and placed the sole of his right against the falling mage's chest. He brought his arms closer to his chest for extra spin and turned his body so his hips were facing outward. Before it landed, his foot started to light up and crackle with the power of his last Fulguratio Sagitta Magica.

Mei did wonder why the little fox in her arms was covering his ears with his tails.

"Crimson Spiral Art: Yggdrasil!"

The lighting powered kick broke through the magical defense and impacted squarely on the mage's chest. The force was so strong that Naruto's grounded foot cracked the earth underneath them. The blast was so loud that it caused a bang that scared Mei out of her spot.

With pinhole eyes, an open mouth and ringing ears, Mei didn't wonder why the fox made that precaution anymore.

After the magical power had dissipated, the unconscious Mage limply hung off Naruto's elevated right foot. He pulled his leg down and the foreign man fell to the dirt. Naruto stood up strongly and looked down at the poor defeated man. Mei walked over to him concerned as she slightly hid herself behind a bored Kyūbi, "I-is he..."

Naruto bent down and placed his fingers against the man's neck. He stood back up and smiled at the young girl, "He's just unconscious. If he's like this then your guys can wipe his memory easier." He faced the young girl and took the fox out of her arms and placed him back on his shoulder. "Thanks for looking over him, he's a bit of a troublemaker when you don't keep an eye on him."

Kyūbi just scoffed at that.

"That-that was amazing Naruto-sama! You faced that man without fear or concern and defeated him with such an amazing technique!" Mei had stars in her eyes while she praised the blond teenager for his skills and bravery.

Naruto was not expecting such a grand change in behavior from the nervous girl from before. "Well I've dealt with guys like that before so I've sort of got a mentality for it. I actually had a harder time trying to weaken the Yggdrasil so I didn't tear through his body with it." He turned back to the girl to see she lost a little color in her face and her eyes went black after he said he had stopped his foot from ripping through the man like paper. "Wait, why do you keep calling me Sama?"

"W-well because you really are the great Naruto Uzumaki-sama!"

"Huh?"

Mei was doing her best to contain her excitement as she was talking with one of her heroes. "Everyone in the magical community at least knows your name! Your just as famous as Takahata-sensei! You defeated some of the strongest men in Mundus Magicus that revolt against the kingdoms! You've fought demons and monsters off to save innocent villages! You've even beaten dozens of dragons when you were surrounded on all ends! You're a close confidant of the Hellas empire and you've been shown on the cover of some of the magazines I've seen in the Magical World too!"

"I knew those were gonna come back and bite me in the ass."

Mei was frantically waving her arms in the air as she tried to contain her excitement. "Onee-sama told me not to worry about working with a celebrity and concentrate on the mission. But you were amazing Naruto-sama."

Naruto just shook his head and chuckled hesitantly, "No, it's just took some training. I'm nothing that special."

"Um..." She pulled out a small notepad and held it out in front of him, "could I please have your autograph?!"

Kyūbi snickered at the shock on Naruto face before he shook his head and took the pad from the magical girl's hands. He quickly drew his signature and handed it back to here and smiled at her. "There you go."

"Thank you Naruto-sama."

"I'm a teacher here now, you can just call me sensei." Mei nodded her head and looked down at her new autograph with admiration. Naruto pulled out his phone to read the time, realizing he was going to get his new living information soon. "Hey Mei-chan, I've got to go and take care of some business. Can you take him back to Gandofini-sensei by yourself?"

"Of course I can Sensei."

"Alright. Thanks." He ran off before turning around and waving at her, "Thanks for helping me around today!" The girl waved back happily before she was left alone in the small forest area with the unconscious man. Only then did she realized she was left with the clean up job.

[[[[[[[[Knight]]]]]]]]

The moment they left that little human girl, the boy told Kyūbi to keep his mouth shut until he told him otherwise. Now they were walking down the empty street while the blond boy whistled a catchy tune.

Kyūbi didn't even want to stay here until summer. He hated staying in the human world for long periods of time. Here he couldn't take a larger form or talk without there being some stupid panic and memory wipe.

Naruto stopped whistling and stood still as he looked at the ground. "You can come out now. I know you two have been following me since I left the forest, so you might as well come out for a talk."

From out of the alley shadows came two girls who carried themselves without worry or fear. Both of them were from Negi's class since Naruto recognized them from Kyūbi's little spy game.

One was a short girl of Japanese decent that walked forward with her hand gripping the strap that held her sword bag. She had cold, narrowed eyes and her brown hair done up into a large ponytail on the left side of her head. Her eyes were focused completely on Naruto as she calmly walked forward.

The other girl that came out of the opposite side of the street was probably not Japanese. She was tall, long blackish hair, dark-skinned and definitely didn't look like a middle-schooler. She didn't look like she belong in any school at all anymore. While the first girl was shorter than Naruto, this girl was a few inches taller.

Naruto scratched his nose and placed his hands in his jacket pockets. He walked forward until he saw the girls tense and move their hands to their weapons. He stopped and smiled, "So, you two are some of the students in Negi's class right? I'm sorry but I haven't memorized your names yet."

The shorter girl bowed her head slightly, "My name is Setsuna Sakurazaki, Seat #15 of class 3-A."

Naruto's smile faded and slowly a look of utter realization started to form. A moment passed and the young Sakurazaki girl wondered why he just seemed to stare at her in disbelief. "You really are."

"Excuse me?"

He realized he was staying silent and shook his head clear. "Okay, Setsuna Sakurazaki-San, got it. And what about you chuckles? What's your name?"

The dark-skin girl just felt her eyebrow raise when he used an apparent nickname. "I am Mana Tatsumiya, Seat #18."

Naruto stayed silent as he measured the girls up with a look of his eyes. "Okay, Sakurazaki-San and Tatsumiya-San. What can I do for you today?"

"When you arrived in our class today we could sense a faint trace in your Ki and Magical state. That level of power would be indiscernible from a normal citizen's state of power, which left you with an excellent cover. But then we sensed your power surge when you used your power during your earlier job, we realized that you were hiding an amazing reserve."

Naruto shrugged his shoulder with an unfazed smile. "Okay. But since you already know I was on a job for the Academy, what's the problem?"

Mana stepped forward, "The problem is that such a powerful man has such a destructive demon living on his shoulder."

Naruto smile started to fade and his eyes furrowed towards the girls, the two students doing the same. Kyūbi leaned in towards his charge's scarred ear, "I think they're talking about me."

"I know they're talking about you, shut up." He looked back to the two girls and crossed his arms in front of his chest. "So how exactly did you find out?"

"I could see it." Mana added coldly and closed her eyes. "I felt something was off when he was sneaking around the classroom earlier. And now..." She opened her left eye to show a different colorizing in her iris and pupil, "I can see its true self."

Naruto's eyes narrowed when he saw Mana's eye change in front of him. "A half-demon...that was unexpected." He settled with a slightly worried look about how fast this little talk could go south, "So tell me, what do you see in him?"

Mana's eye changed back to normal, "I see a demon stronger and more malevolent than any I've met before. With limitless potential for destruction."

Naruto looked between the tall beauty, Kyūbi, and then back to the girl. "You sure. I mean I remember him being pretty bad in the day but now it's just sort of a lazy day for him. The most evil thing he does while I'm around is chase little animals around the street."

"I keep telling you those kittens are taking a piss at us. Those douchebags you see on the beaches that heckle people for no reason and point at their muscles, that's the animal equivalent."

"See. He isn't going to cause harm to anyone here. He's an asshole but he isn't evil. I promise."

Mana focused her eyes on Naruto as he made his plea. "And what would you stake on this promise."

"My life."

Setsuna looked between the two who stared each other down and nodded her head. "Okay then. We shall believe in your promise for now Uzumaki-sensei. But if either of you makes a wrong move, I will personally come to apprehend you. Are we clear?"

Naruto breathed out in relief and nodded his head and smiled. After the tension had broken he relaxed and placed his hands back into his pockets. "I sensed your Ki yesterday when I was with Konoka-San, didn't I?" He took note when Setsuna's hand visibly tensed and gripped her bag strap even tighter. "Why were you tailing us?"

Setsuna looked off to the side and closed her eyes, "I was following my orders of protecting Ojou-sama. She goes to Omiais like that quite frequently at Dean-sama's request and I watch over her when she does."

"So why were you so angry then?"

"I have no idea what you are talking about."

The whiskered Mage chuckled at her reluctance to admit her emotional slip-up. "But a Shinmei-Ryū bodyguard to watch over her at all times. Konoka-San sure has some excellent protection."

Setsuna opened her eyes again and glared at Naruto's accurate assumption. "How did you know I was from the Shinmei-Ryū school?"

He just smiled, "Lucky guess."

"People don't usually make such good guesses out of luck."

He just shrugged his shoulders at her continued distrust of him, "Well I personally know some pretty good Swordsmen, so I made an educated guess." He turned towards Mana as the girl looked over to him. "And what about you? Can you tell me a little about yourself?"

Mana just closed her eyes with a small smile, "Sorry, I don't divulge any classified information without an adequate payment."

"Oh come on, that ruins all the fun."

"Sorry."

Naruto just huffed and looked away dejectedly. "Not your preference for fighting?"

"Nope."

"Your technique or teacher?"

"No."

"Weapon of choice?"

"Not in the contract."

"Style of fighting?"

"No."

"What about the puppy-print underwear you were wearing earlier today? Did you at least change out of that?"

"Well I wasn't going to-"

*Clink*

Naruto smugly opened one eye with a smirk on his face. He ignored the gun barrel placed at the center of his forehead and just looked at the sheer paranoia on Mana's face. And off at the side, Setsuna's calculative eyes changed to large black plates of shock.

"I'm gonna take a guess and say it was laundry day. I understand that. You have no idea how many times I was stuck between choosing commando or a random pink thong in my house's washer."

Mana gripped her IMI Desert Eagle even tighter and glared heatedly at the calm blond boy. "How did you know what panties I was wearing?"

"Let's just say that I've have eyes everywhere."

"It was the fox, wasn't it?"

"Good guess Tatsumiya-San. Or maybe I should call you Mana-chan now?" He said with a snicker. He was really enjoying seeing the previously composed girl become so irritated that quickly.

Setsuna tried to move towards Mana and motioned he hands for her to calm down. "U-um, Mana, maybe you should lower you gun-"

"I can say I was using this for self-defense. People are willing to work towards the innocent middle-school girl's case in court."

Kyūbi just snickered while Naruto smiled, "Okay well if you really want to shoot the gun I won't stop-"

*Bang*Bang*Bang*Bang*Bang*Bang*Bang*Bang*

Setsuna stumbled back in shock with her shoulders shaking. There was a column of gun smoke coming out of the gun's barrel with Mana keeping her composed look.

Naruto's upper-body was almost completely parallel to the ground after barely dodging the entire gun's clip. His eyes had become trembling dots and Kyūbi was having trouble holding onto the whiskered boy's shoulder after that rapid move.

"WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING WOMAN?!"

"MANA-SAMA! Were you trying to kill me?!"

"Sorry..." Mana calmly unloaded the magazine before replacing it with a new, fully loaded clip, "My finger slipped."

"DON'T SAY YOUR FINGER SLIPPED AND JUST RELOAD LIKE YOU'RE IN SOME COOL ACTION MOVIE!"

"You dodged them didn't you." She replied in a calm tone while a small smile formed at her victory of breaking the blond man's visage. "It's alright, they were rubber bullets. They weren't going to kill you..." Mana just shrugged her shoulders, "Probably."

Setsuna threw her arms down her side and yelled at the taller woman, "Mana! Were you trying to kill him?!"

"Do I have to repeat myself?"

[[[[[[[[Knight]]]]]]]]

Takamichi was cleaning up his apartment complex and wearing a little pink apron. He had just finished cleaning most of mess and was now taking a much deserved drag of his little cigarette. After he had wiped the kitchen down, scrubbed the plates clean, picked up any trash that was lying around and cleaned the little present Kyūbi-San left in his laundry room after the alcohol went down the wrong end; he deserved a smoke.

He loved Naruto-kun like a brother, but that boy and fox could leave a big mess when they could.

Takamichi undid the apron and plopped down on the small couch in his front room. He reached for the papers he had to grade for the night and just shook his head tiredly. In his opinion he didn't know which job was harder; Magical agent of the Eternal Wind based in Mahora academy or teacher for a middle-school class.

Wait, the answer was right there. At least when he was risking his life there wasn't this much paper work.

*Ring*Ring*

Takamichi reached over and saw Naruto's number calling him. He answered it and calmly responded, "Hello Naruto-kun. What's wrong?"

"Michi, tell me the old man told you where I'm going to be staying now or else I'm going to have to crash with you again."

The dandy teacher looked over at his now clean apartment and didn't want to see it go so fast. "What's wrong? You sound pretty out of it."

"Michi I've had a pretty shit day. We had to go all over the school to meet all of the teachers. And there was that one guy...what was his name? Kept yelling at all the students to behave?"

"Nitta-sensei?"

"That's it. He's gonna be a pain." Takamichi heard Naruto groan when he mentioned the high-strung teacher that chided the young boy about his pet fox and his behavior. "Plus, after I did the job and took out this weird European Mage-"

"What?" Takamichi jumped off his couch in worry and put out his little cancer stick. "Are you alright?"

"Yeah I'm fine. He wasn't that much to worry about. Anyway after I was done I met two of the students from Negi's class-"

"One of them shot at us!"

"Yeah I was surprised about that."

Takamichi's eyes widened in surprise. "They shot at-" He then realized who they were talking about and rubbed his eyes tiredly. "You met with Mana-kun, didn't you?"

"Yep, Captain Tatsumiya. She was-"

"That human was crazy!"

"Yeah that."

Takamichi just chuckled and shook his head, "That's just the way Mana-kun does her business. She's a professional in every sense of the word. She's great at what she does and she doesn't do it for free or out of an petty feelings. So if she took a shot at you-"

"Eight."

"-eight shots at you, there must've been a reason." Takamichi lit another cigarette and crossed his legs for comfort. "Soooo, did you say anything?"

The line stayed quiet for a second as the only sound Takamichi could hear was the pipes in the building rustling with water. He waited patiently for an answer...

"Kyūbi may have made some inappropriate comments towards her."

"THAT'S BULL SH-MMUFJRODJFG!"

Takamichi smiled and laughed as he heard Kyūbi's muffled arguments and yells behind blocked by Naruto's hand. "You said you met more than one student, right?"

"Yeah. There was another girl with Captain Trigger Happy. Setsuna Sakurazaki."

"Ah, Setsuna-kun. She may seem a little distant but I can personally attest to her skill. In fact she's a subordinate of Eishun-San who was chosen-"

"I know."

Takamichi stopped his exclamation and actually looked confused at his fast answer. "Did she explain all of that to you?"

Naruto just scratched the back of his neck with a slightly distant look in his eyes. "No, it's just...believe me I know." He leaned against a light post in the street with his shoulder bag carrying everything he brought to Mahora Academy next to his feet.

Kyūbi actually looked at the boy suspiciously when he made that claim.

"You don't have anymore crazy students I've got to look out for do you?"

"..."

"You hesitated there for a second..I'll take that as a no."

"Sounds like you've had a hard day."

Naruto turned around to look at the empty street and covered his yawn so Takamichi didn't hear him. "Not a hard day. I've had hard days before. This has just been a long day. So unless you've found a place I can stay for awhile then get the futon ready."

"No need. Dean-sama already set up your new living quarters this afternoon. I left the address in the front pocket of your bag."

Kyūbi dug into the front of the bag and pulled out a little envelope. He walked over and gave Naruto the note before jumping up on his shoulder.

Naruto looked at the envelope, "Where am I staying?"

"In the Girl's Student Dormitory, room 643."

The whiskered Mage pulled the phone away from his ear and looked at it like it had just changed shape. "I'm sorry Michi, I think I've got some bat-shit crazy in my ear."

"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Good luck with the morning wood kid! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

Naruto flung the little animal off his arm and crouched in place. "You bastard! Did you and the old geezer set this up?! This feels like a lawsuit ready to happen!"

"Listen Naruto-kun, calm down. It's not as bad as you think. You're actually going to stay with another teacher for the time being."

"Another teacher? Who?"

[[[[[[[[Knight]]]]]]]]

*Knock*Knock*

"Coming."

The kind young girl wiped her hands on her apron and walked over to her door. She was expecting Nodoka might have come back to pick something up but that probably wasn't it because she was naked coming in here.

She opened the door to the see embarrassed face of her new assistant teacher standing in the doorway. The little fox had vacated his shoulder and was now using the bag by his feet as a temporary bed.

Konoka looked at the young man in surprise, "Huh? Naruto-sensei?"

Naruto realized who had opened to girl and looked back to see her in the doorway. He breathed out a sigh of relief when he saw the the cheerful girl from yesterday answer the door. "Konoka-San?"

"What are you doing here Sensei?"

"Well...you see..." He pulled out an envelope from his jacket pocket and handed it to the Konoe girl. Konoka took it from his hand and opened it up, her eyes darting around the page.

She nodded her head with a smile. "Okay. So Grandpa wants you to stay with us." She walked back in and waved for him to come into his new home. "Well come on in, I just put away dinner but I can reheat it for you if your hungry."

Naruto took a moment to blink in surprise. "Really?"

"Of course. This is your home too, isn't it? You look tired, come on."

Naruto couldn't help but feel a soft smile form on his face from her complete acceptance and cheerful attitude on his living quarters. He picked up his bag and walked in, Kyūbi jumping inside the room and making a spot on the floor to rest.

He looked around the small room and took note of how cozy it felt. Bunk-beds on the far wall. A little cot by the top of the beds that had a ladder to climb up to them. A small table in the center of the room to eat, a little T.V., a couch and a bathroom. For a middle-school dormitory these girls had a nice living space.

He placed his bag at the side and sat on one end of the table, looking around the room and noticing how it was only occupied by the bubbly girl. "Where are your roommates?"

"Oh, Negi-kun went chasing after the Vampire of Sakura Lane and Asuna chased after him to make sure he didn't get hurt."

Naruto's eyes went stark white when she said that while concentrating on make him a plate of food. "What?"

"Well one of our classmates apparently got attacked by a vampire that's been sucking the blood of students going down a certain pathway so Negi-kun decided to go and chase after them. If you had come a little sooner then you would have met my friend Nodoka. Although she probably wouldn't have liked that because she was mostly naked." She put a plate down in front of Naruto and gave a pleasant smile, "Eat up."

The scarred whiskered boy looked down at his plate blankly before looking up at her. "You seem to be taking this whole 'vampire' thing in stride."

Konoka kneeled down on the other side of the table and made herself a cup of tea. "Well it sounds worrying but..." She placed her hand on her cheek and giggled, "It's really exciting too, isn't it?"

"Yeah, I guess." Naruto started to scoop up some chili and took a large bite. His eyes widened when the delicious dish touched his tongue and started to take multiple bites of the wonderful meal in front of him. "This is amazing Konoka-San! How did you-"

When he looked up he saw Konoka pouting at him cutely with her arms crossed in front of her chest. "What? What's wrong?"

"How come you didn't tell me you were going to teach my class along with Negi-kun?" She looked away with a huff of her voice, "Seems like something important you would like to add during an Omiai, Naruto-sensei~." She said with a sing-song voice as she teased her new sensei.

"Oh, well, I didn't actually know I was going to be a teacher yesterday when I met you so-" Kyūbi got out of his spot and walked over to jump on Konoka's lap for a sleeping cot. Konoka lifted her arms to let him on and then laid her hands on his pelt.

"Looks like Kyūbi-chan agrees with me, huh?"

Naruto growled and stuffed his mouth with another fork of meat. He rested his head on his hand, "Little Fucking Opportunist."

Konoka just giggled and stuck a bit of her tongue out at him in protest. She smiled and scratched the back of the fox's neck, getting a content little purr out of his throat. "I think you're gonna like being in this school."

Naruto started to finish cleaning his plate and looked at the girl after she said that. "Why do you say that?"

"Cause everyone in class seems to like you and Kyūbi-chan. And I thought you and Asuna were having fun arguing, like an old married couple." She didn't take notice when Naruto choked on the food in his mouth. "And honestly, I think you and Negi-kun could get on very well. He needs a friend his age to help him fit in."

Naruto and Kyūbi both looked at her oddly when she said that. "Does he have a problem talking to people?"

"Nope. Negi-kun does his best to help everybody in class and tries to be the greatest teacher he can be. But I think he needs a friend that can help him act his age, Asuna thinks so too." Konoka clapped her hands together and gave him a pleading look, "Please be a friend Negi-kun can trust, Naruto-kun."

Naruto smiled and stood up, taking his plate over to the sink and cleaning it. He looked up at the young Konoe girl and gave her a big grin, "You didn't even have to ask. I promise."

Before Naruto and Konoka could continue, their dorm room opened and closed. Asuna dragged herself in and Negi followed in dejectedly, "Konoka~, we're back. Hey, if you've still got any food left, do you mind getting some ready for us. Negi had a pretty long night and- WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE WHISKERS?!" The twin-tailed girl finally yelled when she noticed the same blond boy from this morning standing in her kitchen space.

Naruto saw Asuna look towards him and drowned the idea of cheering and hugging her right there on the spot. "Nice to see you too Bells." The whiskered boy groaned as he washed his dish.

Asuna walked up to him as he faced towards her. "What are you doing in our room?! Did you break in? What did you do to Konoka while I wasn't looking?!" She peeked out of the kitchen opening and looked towards her roommate, "Konoka, he didn't do anything to you right?"

"Oh Asuna...that's our little secret~." She said heatedly with a little blush on her face and her hand gently on her cheek.

Naruto's eyes looked off at the side, "Where was I for that?"

"It's late. Shouldn't you be going back to your room?" Asuna questioned with her arms underneath her chest.

"Yeah...about that..." Naruto droned with an itch on the back of his neck.

"He's our new roommate Asuna! He's gonna stay with us for awhile!" Konoka added happily and lifted Kyūbi up under his legs to show the Heterochromic girl.

"No. No he is not!" Asuna turned to Naruto and pointed at his face, "You are not staying in our room! We already have to take care of Negi and we don't need another bratty boy in our room! Find somewhere else to live!"

"I can't. Michi kicked me out of his apartment because I was causing a mess. This is-" Naruto was cut off when Asuna grabbed his collar tightly with both hands.

"You were living with Takahata-sensei?! I'll trade with you! Give me your old room key!"

"Bells I don't think it works like that."

"Make it work!"

"See Kyūbi-chan, they're already getting along." Konoka was enjoying the sight of her two roommates arguing when she noticed a little frame drag his feet behind her. She looked over her shoulder to see Negi weakly pull himself up the bunk-bed ladder. "What's wrong Negi-kun?"

Naruto and Asuna stopped their arguing to see Negi barely pull himself into Asuna's bed and pull the covers over his head, "Nothing Konoka-San...I'm just feeling a little tired...I'm going to bed..."

The teenage members in the room all looked between each other with some worry in their eyes. Asuna leaned out of the kitchen window and looked up at the top bunk. "Negi...that's still my bed."

"Mmmhmmmm..."

Asuna pulled back in and looked up at Naruto as he turned to her in concern. "Hey Negi, Whiskers is here and he's staying with us. You two are going to have to fight it out for living space."

"Mmmhmmmm..."

Naruto turned to the bell-wearing girl, "What happened?"

Asuna leaned in closer to whisper to him, "He had a bit of a scare when he was out. He's feeling a little depressed."

Naruto's eyes widened and his head turned from the boy to the girl, "You mean that vampire crap?"

"Well, turns out there's a student here who doesn't seem to know how to behave properly with our teachers."

Naruto's shoulders sagged and he turned to the young boy hiding under the covers. Well, this didn't bode well for his first week in school.

[[[[[[[[Knight]]]]]]]]

Asuna's eyes slowly peeled open and she found herself sleeping in a grassy field. She used her stubby hands to push herself up onto her butt. Everything around her was blurry and white, like a thick fog covering her eyes from what surrounded her.

She looked down at her hands and felt a strange sensation when she tried to close them. She tried to look around, 'Wh...where...am I...'

She pulled herself up on her feet and walked on the grass field for what seemed like hours...

'Am...I...lost...'

"Prin...Han..."

Asuna stopped in place, slowly turning to the sound of the approaching voice. Slowly, several shadows started to fade into existence around her with their faces cut off from view.

"Look who finally woke up..." A slender man said with a soft voice.

"Asuna-kun did you have a nice nap..." One man in a clean cut suit added in.

"Princess-chan has been sleeping for so long that I'm surprised she would even want to take a nap anymore..." The largest, most muscular shadow of the group added in with a vibrant laugh.

"What do you think Asuna? Are you still sleepy?..." A familiar looking man in a beige robe added from besides the largest shadow.

Asuna didn't know how to answer or what to say. She couldn't even make a sound or she would have started arguing with these guys the moment they started talking,

"That's not true at all!" A short shadow pushed his way past the other shadows and ran up to the little, vacant eyed princess. He smiled, stretching out the birthmarks on his face and holding out a hand for the little girl to take.

"Come on Asuna, let's show these guys how wrong they are! Unless you just want me to carry you around and show them who's boss!"

As the larger men started laughing at the young boy's statement, Asuna felt angered by his statement of having to carry her around like an extra weight. She took in a deep breath and prepared to yell-

"Shut it Whiskers, don't make my decisions for me~." Asuna groaned tiredly when she suddenly woke up in the middle of the night. She looked around with her eyes half lidded and noticed Negi was still sleeping soundly besides her.

"Ughhh, what was that Bells? Did you say something?" Naruto questioned from the couch across the room.

"N-nothing Whiskers, just forget it."

Naruto just shrugged and plopped his head back into his pillow.

She looked down at the quivering Negi and just ran her hands through his hair with a considerate smile. Asuna just yawned and rested her head on her pillow again, hoping to fall back to sleep. She just need to wait it out again...

What woke her up anyway?... Oh well, not like it matters.

[[[[[[[[Knight]]]]]]]]

Done

Naruto's hiding a little secret with his students, and Asuna's got some sleep terrors? Not really.

Yggdrasil is a technique based on the Norse mythology of a great tree that Odin hung himself from to gain the knowledge of the gods. And I just thought I would use it as an attack name because Negima uses a lot of Mythological lore to name their attacks, so Naruto's attacks will hopefully be varied in name. But if you need a visualization, look up the Korui Nuki attack from the Kenichi franchise.

That technique is a sheer badass attack that deserves recognition.

Now lemons...I don't know what to do for this. I want to do lemons but I don't know where I should put them. I could try putting them in the man story but that might screw the dynamic to shit.

I have a little side story idea I could add where Evangeline uses a curse. I could add some Omake chapters every once in a while to keep this idea and register little chapters or I can do another story as a sub-series to Knight of Mahora just solely on lemons but someone already did that so I don't know. I might just not do lemons at all because it's wrong. Whatever, I'll think about it.
