Mahou Sensei Negima! Fan Fiction ❯ Negima: The Fight for Life! ❯ Presenting the Case ( Chapter 1 )

Welcome to my first medical mystery! I decided the lovable boy teacher (Negi Springfield) should face a new challenge, something vastly different than his “normal” challenges. Our young teacher will have to battle illness and to help him battle this illness I have used my all mighty powers as author to put him under the care of the best doctor in the world. Who is this Doctor? We'll find out soon!

 

General house keeping: As this story will involve the usage of English AND Japanese I have decided on an alternative to finding a native speaker, translating, ect. (because that means, I have to learn Japanese, you have to learn Japanese, the wonderful people who are the care takers of mediaminer.org have to learn Japanese, ect. And that would be a pain in the back side). So to make a clarification on how discussion will be dealt with, this is how it goes:

 

“Regular quote marks will be used for conversation in English.”

`Single line quotes will be used for conversation Japanese.'

Whenever a character is thinking I'll use italics

 

Like I said before I don't know Japanese, so that also means honorifics. In the interest of protecting the speakers of the language (and the Otakus) from my butchery of the honorifics, I will not include said honorifics. (Sorry for that folks)

 

Savvy? Good!

 

Now, on with the show!

 

Mahou Sensei Negima!

The battle for life!

Chapter 1

 

Mahora Academy City:

 

The boy teacher makes his way to class…late…as usual.

 

`You idiot!' His unwilling bunkmate screams at him chasing him with her Haresin fan. “You hogged the bathroom for the last time! I'm gonna be in trouble for this, AGAIN!”

 

The boy teacher was tired but not enough to stop him from out running the furious fans wings of Asuna. `Come on, give me a break!' he hollered back `I have an evaluation today, I have to be at my best to receive good marks!'

 

`Receive this!' Asuna shouted taking another swing, barely missing his head.

 

`You need to calm down Asuna.' The always bubbly voice of Konoka floated by, as always she had her roller skates and her absent minded smile. `You'll live much longer, besides,' she added slyly `Negi is our teacher, he'll be with us going to class, so he can take the heat off.'

 

Asuna growled `Fine, I'll beat him up after class, Abeat!' her weapon disappeared and her card was in her hand. Slipping her card into her pocket, she focused on the task at hand: making it to class ON TIME.

 

At the classroom door, the three stopped and parted ways, Negi to the teacher's office to clock in, the girls to class to participate in another day of general mayhem (or in Asuna's case cause it).

 

`That brat'll never learn!' Asuna said angrily, sitting down in her seat.

 

`Give him a break, he's only a child!' the Magi in training exclaimed, sitting down next to her.

 

`Break? Sure, which arm?' Asuna growled.

 

Deja-vu Konoka thought to herself `good morning set-chan!' she hollered as Setsuna entered the classroom.

 

`Good morning mistress.' She said with a slight bow.

 

If there was one thing in the world that annoyed Konoka, it was the one closest to her calling her mistress. `I told you not to call me that!' she pouted.

 

`I am sorry. It's a force of habit.' The small samurai said approaching the desk.

 

`Do you want to get in some practice after school?' Asuna asked Setsuna.

 

`Actually, you are at a stage where you can learn some powerful techniques, but unfortunately we would need about a full day's work to do it successfully.'

 

`But I don't have a WHOLE day to do that' I don't have a day off for a week.' Asuna replied groaning.

 

`I thought you might have some work related issues, so I arranged it with Evangeline to use her resort.'

 

`No fair!' Konoka interjected `I wanna go to, I like watching you practice.'

 

The samurai blushed at this and said embarrassedly `I don't see why you would, I'm not that good.'

 

`Yes you are!' Konoka shot back `you're amazing! I've never seen someone fight and train as hard as you.'

 

The Samurai blushed more (her face approaching brick red quickly) `well I had also made arrangements for you to join us-'

 

`But you won't get to watch your friend' a grumpy voice sounded from behind Asuna (she jumped from the shock). It was the Vampire of 3-A that spoke, Evangeline A.K. McDowell and as always she was accompanied by Chachamaru. `Like your father wished, you will learn magic, we are going to use this time to get you to master the basics and finally make that damned flame BY YOUR SELF.'

 

With that the door slid open and the boy wonder walked in.

 

`I'll see you all after class at my house.' She said smirking (Chachamaru bowing) and going to her seat.

 

`Good morning class.' Negi said with a bright smile on his face.

 

`Good morning teacher' the whole class said in unison (minus Eva who just mouthed it as usual), bowing.

 

`Good god, not another day in this class' Chisame Hasegawa muttered to her self sitting down.

 

`Today we'll be working on reading and translating page one hundred fifty-seven from the horizons book' Negi said beaming.

 

Something's not right Asuna thought to herself, he looks exhausted and at the end of his rope, yet he's making an extraordinary effort to look like he's on top of the world.'

 

Asuna wasn't the only one who noticed it. Some of the other girls (who were in the loop about why he really was their teacher) noticed his disposition and were wondering the same thing. Even Evangeline noticed and was concerned what's he thinking she thought to herself furiously teaching in this condition.

 

`Excuse me,' Ayaka said raising her hand `are you alright teacher?'

 

`I'm fine Ms. Hiroyuka.' The boy teacher replied, but the class rep. saw right through the lie.

 

`Are you sure? You seem-'

 

`There is nothing wrong with me.' Negi snapped, his sunny disposition dissolving in an instant `now please be quiet so we can continue class.'

 

The entire class looked up at the young teacher simultaneously, none of them able to believe what they had just heard.

 

`Now, if Ms. Hiroyuka is done dissecting my non-existant health issues, please turn to page one hundred fifty-seven in your horizons books.' He said with a look that would make Nitsuta the guidance councilor take a step back. The class, in one terrified/unified motion, removed their books and opened them to the correct page, not a sound escaped their lips for fear of the wrath of the new persona their teacher had adopted.

 

Ah crap! Asuna thought to herself, panicking he snapped and I'm the straw that broke the Camel's back remembering the fight between them on the way to school involving her Harisen. This is really coming back to bite me in the- but she didn't have time to finish her thought as something strange happed.

 

As the class procured their books, Negi had started writing on the board, it was in English. The class could decipher most of the phrase, but they did not know the last word. Except one student…

 

Looking at the board she couldn't believe he would write something like that, not until it happed. She saw it happen and reacted as quickly as she could, `Chachamaru, catch him!' Evangeline shouted as she sprang from her seat. Unfortunately she was too late, as both of them moved, Negi's eyes glazed over and he fell to the floor. `Boya!' Evangeline shouted kneeling down next to him `SAY SOMETHING!'

 

Nothing came from his mouth, the class started to panic, their beloved teacher had passed out! Asuna, Setsuna, Konoka, Ayaka, Kaede, Nodoka, Yue, and Haruna quickly gathered around their fallen teacher.

 

`Chachamaru, vitals!' Evangeline barked at her robot partner.

 

Chachamaru placed her finger on Negi's neck and calculated his vitals. `pulse: stable, Blood pressure: normal'

 

Upon relaying that information, things took a turn for the worst. As the class gathered around, Negi's body started convulsing.

 

`A seizure!' Evangeline shouted `get back, he can't control his limbs!' the entire class panicked and ran back several feet. Chachamaru, monitor him, Setsuna and Kaede, find Ms. Shizuna and bring her here as quickly as possible to look after him. She should be in the Teacher's offices. I will go find the Headmaster and have him bring in a healer as soon as possible.' Negi's foot suddenly flew out and made impact with the wall knocking a large hole in it.

 

With that the four girls went about their duty, the fighters tracking down Ms. Shizuna,, the robot monitoring their teacher's condition, and the resident vampire moving full speed towards the headmaster's office.
