Chigusa will get an epic beatdown and The Reason You Suck Speech, although maybe not from the person you're expecting.

That's right. We should be on the homestretch now, actually.

Girls' Night Out
- Quote:
-
"Here, " Konoeko-san pointed at a large, still untouched, full wall window with her divination sticks. Its glass panels were opaque enough to obstruct the outside view, and viceversa, Nodoka guessed, but Konoeko-sama sounded so sure of herself the librarian felt even less willing to discuss it than before. "By feeling the immediate future of the enemies' movements, I can tell this is the exit where we'll find the least opposition."
Nodoka gulped and firmly clutched the Windy in a hand, deploying its humanoid form over herself, while holding her staff in the other hand. "You chose well, " Kero tried to comfort his nervous protege, flying near her head. "Out of the three cards you own, Windy's the quickest on the draw, and the most useful in direct combat. Don't be afraid..."
"I-I-I-I'm not a-a-afraid..."
Roberta-san had fully undone her braids now, dark long hair hanging loose in all directions, as she grabbed a chair with her free hand, the other one easily holding an assault machine gun. "How many are out there?"
Konoeko focused herself on feeling the immediate actions of those right outside. "Only seven at the time. They're bored with patrolling, so they're about to break in. Except because you're about to shatter that window and engage them in combat yourself..."
Roberta grunted. "Is that suicidal?"
A new brief pause. "If we move fast enough, we could get out of here before their reinforcements arrive..." Konoeko predicted.
"I can, " the towering busty maid tossed the chair through the window. "You'd better too."
Nodoka had the annoying feeling Roberta-san, indeed, didn't care an iota about them as long as she found Iinchou-san alive and well.
She didn't have too long to dwell on that since then the demons, startled, were jumping in, blades deployed. Steeling her resolve, Nodoka blasted the first one down the hill with a mini tornado, but the second one made a successful curve for her, until a precise shot split his head like a ripe fruit.
Nodoka felt sick, but at the same time a little relieved Roberta-san maybe cared to some level about them.
"MOVE!" Konoe-sama shouted, leading the march outside as fast as she could, while Roberta, dead eyes firmly focused, made a bullseye with each shot, breathing like a rabid animal under controlling drugs. The 3-A student didn't need any further spurring and followed the older women as best as she could, Kero fluttering behind her.
She knew Iinchou-san well, and she knew, in case of danger, she'd head for Negi-sensei's location if she still was alive (and that little "if" bothered her a lot, although clearly not as much as Roberta). Their teacher had headed for the main gate when this all started, which was at a higher level than the emergency exit they had tried to take before being stopped by the Joker. So they'd have to head up the hill and pray for the best. Oddly enough, Roberta-san was praying in Spanish, feverishly, as she gunned down the demons in their path.
In any case, they couldn't last for long on their own, so their best hope was rejoining the larger group.
"Dios te salve Maria, llena eres de gracia..."
Both older women with her were unreadable in their own ways, and Nodoka realized she still had a lot to do in the way of growing, and not only physically. She felt lost without Yue or Haruna around to speak in public, much less to fight her way through a demon horde, but still, she had to think, to make herself useful...
"Roberta-san!" she said, tentatively reaching for The Create. "What if I make you a jeep to drive us in?"
"It'd only make us a bigger, easier target, " the maid estimated with a grunt. "Don't distract me."
"I won't, " Nodoka promised, wrapping more demons in a miniature hurricane, making them spin long enough to set them up as easy targets for Roberta's bullets. "H-How about a tank, then? C-Could you drive one?"
What a ridiculous question, Nodoka chided herself. She still was only a child, tossing such stupid—
Roberta looked back at her. "I was taught how to, yes. Can you get us one, for real?"
Ah?
Well, it wasn't the moment to ask, Nodoka decided. She pulled the magical notebook out and wrote, And then a trusty tank appeared for Roberta-san to drive through the mountain...
A few moments later, an uneasy Konoeko sat inside of the armored vehicle, with Nodoka and Kero sitting on her lap. They were really cramped in there, while Roberta drove the sturdy tank up the hill, turret shooting at demons at left and right with almost manic determination.
"While I'm extremely grateful for your quick thinking, Miyazaki-san, I'd prefer a bigger tank next time, " Konoeko softly requested.
Nodoka nodded stiffly. "I-I'll keep it in mind."
"I think I'll call him Bonaparte..." Roberta mused curtly between booming shots.

Driving me Mad
- Quote:
-
"Over here, " Skuld gestured around for Keiichi and Makie to follow her, with a small round device she had pulled out of one of her pockets in a hand. The device bliped at random intervals, with varying degrees of intensity.
"Maybe I'll regret asking, but what's that thing?" the young man sighed.
"A radar that shows me the different focal areas of demonic activity in the neighboring sectors, " Skuld explained without looking back at him. "Adjusting its specifications, you also can use it to locate the Dragon Balls, but let's not even go there."
"Huh?" Keiichi and Makie echoed each other.
"Let's not go there, " Skuld repeated, kicking a door open, which wasn't hard even for someone as petite as her since it was half ripped off its hinges anyway. The humans recognized it as the door of the library room they had been at a couple hours ago, and where The Create was found. The library had obviously been hit by demons, since all its shelves had been taken down, several of them cracked apart. There were books tossed everywhere around, a lot of them shredded and half-burnt.
Skuld shuddered. "A hideous waste of what little culture this world has..."
"Justice, " Baka Pink disagreed.
Skuld gave her another pissed off glare before rasping. "Okay, we're going to make our escape from here. For that, I'm going to need both of you to activate your Pactios."
Makie blinked. "How do we do that? Negi-kun and the others didn't explain that part."
"Hold your cards up and say 'Adeat', that's all, " their Magistra informed them. "A piece of cake!"
"Won't it hurt?" asked Keiichi.
"You sure it won't consume our souls?" doubted Makie.
"Look, if you don't do it, there's a big chance you will be hurt by demons who will consume your souls. Or just pounce on you. These ones seem to be the garden variety. Still, why to take risks?" was Skuld's answer.
"You didn't give us a straight answer!" pointed out Makie.
Skuld sighed. "You'll be completely fine!"
College student and junior high student looked at each other, shrugged, held their cards up, and said "Adeat!" at the same time.
Keiichi felt as if the whole world was tugging on him from all directions, then a cold draft all over his body. Before he could shriek like a girl on how he felt naked with no explanation, a huge warmth washed over him, as new clothes tailored themselves on his body. All the while, a beam of light surrounded him so brightly it only let him take the briefest glimpse of Makie's silouette next to him, apparently undergoing the same kind of change. Nice beh— Never mind!
Then he found himself wearing the same racing outfit he was wearing in the card, but with a detached steering wheel in his gloved hands. He had to blink a few times. "This wasn't in the card's image..."
Skuld would have told him sometimes details like some Artifacts didn't show up in the cards (it would have been difficult to squeeze an artificial satellite in Karakuri Chachamaru's), but she was too busy turning away and shuddering. "I... I have seen things that I shouldn't have... Wasn't fast enough to look away..."
An awed Makie spun around, picnic basket still in a hand while the other held a long Gymnastics ribbon. "Ahhhh, how cyuuuuuuute!" she gushed. Keiichi flinched, blushing and trying not to look too much at the way the pink spandex clung to her. "This is fabulous! I'm so happy...!"
"Y-Yeah, so glad for you..." Skuld rasped. "Anyway, " she added, before pulling an electronic notepad out of another pocket, "I'm familiar with your Artifact from previous... research, Sasaki-san, but let's see what you got, Keii— Morisato-san."
She pressed a few keys, and a 3-D ethereal image of the steering wheel flashed out, surrounded by Norse rune text. Makie made another cooing sound.
Skuld nodded. "As suspected. Mori— ah, what the heck, Keiichi, your Infinite Driving artifact allows you to drive literally anything you can attach it to, as long as it's big enough to support your weight and that of your passengers. It doesn't even matter it it's an object that normally couldn't move around. Even if it doesn't have wheels, it'll still drag itself at an average motor vehicle's speed as long as you're holding the wheel and it's attached to the object. Well, this is a happy event indeed! Right what we need to reach our destination shortly!"
Keiichi looked incredulous. "Yeah, sure. And what am I supposed to drive to get us there?"
Skuld began kicking the last few remaining books out of the largest and least damaged shelf in the library, one literally tall and wide enough to hold all three of them when turned down.
"You must be joking, " Keiichi said.
Moments later, he grumbled while sitting on top of the shelf, placing himself at what more or less he guessed counted as its front if you looked at it as some sort of pretend car. He shoved the steering wheel down on it, and they seemed to click together rather loudly. "This has to be the dumbest and craziest thing I've ever done. More than that time when Tamiya and Ootaki dressed me as a woman for that party..."
"You said that last part aloud, " Skuld observed while sitting behind him.
"I don't even care anymore, " he bitterly sighed.
"My mother warned me about getting into cars with strange men..." Makie still doubted, even as she sat behind Skuld carefully hugging her waist. Skuld shuddered, but gritted her teeth and endured.
Keiichi grunted, adjusted the driving wheel one last time, and kicked down with his right foot to turn the 'vehicle' on. Much to his discomfort, it even rumbled like a starting old car.
"This isn't a car, " he said as it started to roar up and up...
"We still need a way out, " Makie said.
Skuld began fidgeting with another gadget. "Taken care o—"
"No problem, I'll handle it!" Makie chirped, somehow pulling a mini rocket launcher out of B.B.Hood's basket and blowing a huge hole in a wall. Now Keiichi shrieked like a girl, as the whole room trembled.
Skuld sweated nails. "Eishun-sama will kill us...!"
"Forget the elder, " Keiichi gulped while demons began approaching from all corners, attracted by the explosion. "They'll get us first!" and he did his best to accelerate, which was somewhat difficult when there were no visible controls other than the wheel. Pushing his foot down where there should be a throttle seemed to work, though. Maybe too well, as a matter of fact, since they were rocketed up the hill so briskly Keiichi shrieked like a girl again. Makie only laughed as she grabbed a gun in each hand and began shooting demons guns akimbo style, keeping her legs firmly secured around Skuld's body.
"Wheeeee! Here we goooo!"
"Don't want to die no no no no!" Keiichi made his best unwilling Misora impression as he tried to get the gist of controlling that thing.
"Up that way!" Skuld commanded. "Eyes on the road, Keiichi! Sasaki-san, you can use your Artifact instead of those—" She saw Makie was defending herself, and them too, rather well by shooting in all directions but never losing aim, and sighed. "On second thought, just keep it up that way. I'm sure we'll find a better use for your Pactio later..."

Tank Girl
- Quote:
-
"We've gotta turn around!" Keiichi shouted. The helmet included with his Pactio outfit was now firmly secured onto his head. "There's a TANK shooting wildly ahead of us!"
Skuld looked over his shoulder. "It must be a friend. Look at it, it's shooting at the demons!"
Well, that explained why they had spent a good stretch of road free from more demon attacks since leaving the manor's immediate vicinities. And why, despite that, their path had been so full of craters, broken trees, and random destruction in general.
"Are you nuts?-!" Morisato cried. "What if it's just shooting at everything they see? Furthermore, what's a freaking tank doing here for starters?-! If the JSSDF sent— aw, crap!" he tried to twist aside when he saw the tank had run out of demons to kill and was aiming its turret at them, but he couldn't get out of the way in time...
... although the tank didn't shoot, much to his infinite relief.
Instead, a more or less familiar head peeked out of it. Even without the glasses and with her braids undone, Morisato recognized the icy obsessed eyes and the beautiful, in a maturely deranged way, features. "R-R-Roberta-san?"
"What?" Makie craned her neck up to see as well.
The tank grinded to a halt and Roberta shouted the first thing any of the present expected to hear from her, actually.
"WHERE'S OJOU-SAMA?-!"
Keiichi sweatdropped. "Um, well... As you can see, she isn't with us..."
"We got separated from her and Sora-san in the fires..." Makie added, "But if two screwballs like us could make it out of there alive, Iincho, who is so smart, also—" Before she even could finish the sentence, the tank began moving away again.
"La puta que los pario, " Roberta cursed without giving a crap about them anymore. Sweatdrops abounded again.
"Who are you talking to, Roberta-san?" Nodoka asked from below her.
The maid grunted. "El palurdo y la tarada..."
"In Japanese, Roberta-san, " Konoeko requested.
"... Morisato-san and Sasaki-san."
"Stop the tank, " Konoeko said.
"Jodase."
"Stop the tank, Roberta-san, " Konoeko repeated, louder this time.
"But Ojou-sama...!-!" she almost foamed off the mouth.
"I'll tell Yukihiro-sama you left her friends alone in deadly danger as soon as we see her again..." Konoka's mother said.
The tank made another sudden stop then.
Moments later, Makie was tossing herself into Nodoka's arms. "Honya-chan!" she cried. "What a relief, seeing you're okay!"
"Ah, ah, same here, Sasaki-san..."
The two small groups were standing between both vehicles now, comparing figurative notes and examining their situation. And sulking angrily, in Roberta's case.
Keiichi looked up and down at the tank, genuinely impressed by it. "Wow, I hardly can believe it. A real Russian armored vehicle from WW II! I don't recognize the exact model, but... where did you get it?"
Nodoka held her Create notebook up sheepishly.
"Ah, " Keiichi said.
"In turn, I feel the need to question why and how in the world you were driving one of our library's shelves around, Morisato-san..." Konoeko said.
The boy scratched the back of his head in shame. "Ah, yes, that's a long story, you'll see... We happened to make emergency Pactios with Skuld-san here, who is—"
"— a magic user, " Skuld herself stepped ahead nonchalantly, whipping her long black hair aside. Konoeko's eyes widened as she saw the three small dark markings on the girl's face. "Greetings, Konoe Konoeko-sama, child of the Amaterasu bloodline, heiress of the Jurai!"
Konoeko gave two brief, jerky nods and bowed. "P-Pleased to make your acquaintance, Skuld-sama..."
"Look, Honya-chan, this is Skuld-chan!" Makie pulled Nodoka to the other girl's side. "We made a Pactio, just like Chisame-chan and the others with Negi-kun, and now I have this spiffy new uniform and equipment!"
"B-Buh-But Sasaki-san, d-don't they look just like what you always bring to your practices?" Nodoka asked.
"Of course not! Look at my new leotard! It's glittery!"
Kero remained half hidden behind Nodoka's shoulder, silent and looking at Skuld with apprehension. There was something about her he could feel, but not understand at all, and that made him actually afraid.
Others of a less sensitive nature were also less concerned, as much as the circumstances allowed. "You're also going to rejoin Negi-kun, aren't you?" Makie chirped.
Roberta nodded solemnly. "We hope Ojou-sama is sure to head there, as well..."
"Don't worry, I'll drive your tank, and I'm sure it'll go much faster!" Keiichi promised.
"There's no need for it. As you could see, I can handle it fine myself, " the maid denied him.
Keiichi, who really wanted to drive something less embarassing than a wooden shelf, insisted. "B-But I have a new power that allows me to drive literally anything..."
"Let's suppose you can drive it, " Roberta's stare drilled into his eyes. It actually was almost physically painful. "Can you shoot it?"
Keiichi opened his mouth in a confident smile, but froze before giving the answer. He side glanced at Skuld, who shook her head sadly. Then he drooped as well. "No."
More moments later, the tank and the shelf moved ahead the road together, with a mortified looking Keiichi still driving the latter.
Makie pointed over his shoulder excitedly, at the mass of demons waiting for them up the road. "Oh, look! Look! More of them! Roberta-san, let's see who can shoot more of them!"
Keiichi felt like banging his head against something once more, but this wasn't the time.
One of the demons nudged at another one. "Hey, isn't that girl there Lady Urd's goddess half-sister?"
"Nah. What would she be doing down here? It must be only a casual remembrance."
A beat.
"Let's not kill her, all the same. You know WHAT Lady Hild does to those who make her daughters angry..."

Light Upon Darkness
- Quote:
-
"DEATH TO ALL PERVERTS!" Golden Darkness said, turning both of her hands and the strands of her hair into long knives, striking at Haruna, only to be foiled by her target pirouetting back out of range,
"Oh, a close shave!" the mangaka laughed. "C'mon, don't tell me you really got offended by such a small—" Now she had to roll out of the way as several blades generated from the mercenary's body sank where she had stood a moment before. "Geez. With a temper like that, even your good looks won't be of much help to—!"
"Confound it, stop flirting with her and help me here!" Suzushiro Haruka shouted from where she was charging with her mace for Golden Darkness, only to be blocked in situ by one of the assassin's small hand palms. Undeterred, Haruka headbutted her and followed with a knee to Darkness' stomach. "Don't get me wrong, I'm a disciplitarian! I understand your rage at this pervert! But your own behavior is unacceptable!"
"The right word is 'disciplinarian', " Darkness disapproved, her right hand blade clashing against Haruka's spiked ball, before being pushed a few feet back by the surprisingly strong blonde. "People who can't speak their own language right annoy me."
Haruka huffed and kicked down, throwing dirt on Yami's cute face. "Quiet! Saotome may be a delinquent, but you're a fully fledged criminal! You're involved with one of our finest students' kidnapping!"
Yami charged ahead ready to stab, with Haruka managing to duck and sweep her legs with her own just in time. "I take on all kinds of jobs as long as the pay's good and I'm not being tricked, " she said, rolling with the impact to fall on a safe position, getting herself out of Haruka's range and using her longer reach edge to attack with hair harpoons. "So you won't gain me over with sympathy pleas..."
A multiple construct shaped like a barrage of loudly buzzing tubular objects blindsided Yami, flying into her and shocking her, making her yell while Haruka's face twitched.
"Cute girls shouldn't have those black thoughts!" Haruna yelled at her, rejoining the battle. "Do you want to end up being someone as wicked as that Chigusa woman?-!"
"You... You won't be preaching on me about wickedness!" Yami said, slashing free from the constructs and running against Haruna again. "You're the worst person I've ever met!"
And Haruka leaped for her, hitting her jaw with the tip of her weapon's handle. "There's no worse crime than those against others' rights to live free and happy!" she lectured, stopping Yami's spring in midpoint and trying to kick at her. The Golden Darkness blocked the kick easily with a forearm, but that left her open for Haruna to hit her other side with a stripper pole on which a scantily clad doll spun madly. "Abominable as Saotome's deeds are, yours are even worse!" Haruka finished, taking the chance to elbow Yami in the face. Why wouldn't she fall already?
Yami blinked, momentarily distracted by recent memories of Amagasaki's behavior. She barely knew the woman, after all. What if these two insane women were right? What if—
She snapped herself out of it to spin around and kick both her opponents at once in a sweeping arc. No. She'd settle things with Amagasaki later, herself, but first, these two had to pay...
Then she saw Saotome's right hand, even as she rolled back, stunned, finishing drawing a most fearsome and horrible thing. That paralyzed the killer for hire momentarily, but taht shortest of spans was enough. As it appeared out of thin air and fell down on Yami with the might of a judging hammer, Haruka got back up, breathed deeply, muttered a prayer under her breath, and slammed the morningstar on Yami's head.
Haruka breathed even deeper as she pulled the blunt weapon back up, praying frantically, so fast her words got messed up one against other in her tongue.
"It's okay, " Paru sighed, crouching down to check on the knocked out Yami, the upper half of her body sticking out from under the oversized S&M rack, complete with two black leather clad dummies tied up onto it in a very suggestive placement. Yami's eyes had become spirals. "You should have seen it earlier! The way she absorbed punishment, it was clear she could take a full hit from your mace!"
Haruka looked down at her weapon dejectedly. "I'm still no sure how much damagefication this thing can dish out..."
"Just 'damage' works fine, actually, " Haruna sweatdropped. "Hm, thanks for the assistance here!"
"If you really want to thank me, clean your act up, stop harassing others including my fiance, and abandon your vile lecherous practices!"
"You know what, Sempai? Just forget it..."
They were startled by the loud sounds of heavy artillery warfare coming from down the hill.
"What was that?" Haruka blinked.
Haruna adjusted her glasses. "Sounds like a WWII documentary in progress..."
They saw a tank and a large bookshelf approaching the battlefield, pursued by a large additional demonic horde.
"Well, that isn't something you see every day, " Haruna noted with a whistling.
"Is that Sasaki-san standing on that bookshelf, shooting those devils at left and right?"
"Yes, she is. Lovely leotard, isn't it?"
"Why this kind of things never happens to Fujino?"
"Ah, the Council President? Maybe she isn't awesome enough for it!"
Haruka rolled her eyes.
"I mean it!" Haruna insisted. "I voted you, not her, you know!"
"You did?-!"
"Of course! You had a better campaign platform, a cuter sidekick, funnier speeches, and most important of all, bigger breasts! Small ones are cute, but real powerhouse women in positions of leadership require Boobs of Steel!" Haruna held an index up sagely.
"On second thought, maybe I should have lined up with the little girl."

The Secret Origin of Unequally Rational and Emotional Sister Shakti
- Quote:
-
Okinawa:
Finally, Sakura Mei bitterly thought as Maria and Kaolla returned from wherever they had been for the last hour, sporting twin goofy grins and plopping down on the futon next to hers, one on the other, almost literally tangled together. Oh God, were they still going to go on with it, even next to her? The mere idea made Mei's skin crawl. At least Takane-oneechan and her had the decency to keep it discreet!
Thankfully, however, whatever they had been doing had been enough to tire even Maria out, since the illegal immigrant was giving tiny open mouthed snores now. Mei sighed with relief before hearing Kaolla's voice.
"Mei-chan?"
"Yes, what?" Mei asked, without turning around to look at her.
"Are you awake?"
"Unless I'm dreaming you, yes, I am."
"Do you dream of me often?"
"No. That was your question?"
"Nope. When you return to Mahora, can you tell Cousin Shakti to drop by sometime? And ask her if she's still angry at us?"
Now that made Mei turn around quickly, eyes wide. "Sister Shakti is your cousin?-!"
A nod. Actually, several of them. Suu Kaolla never nodded a single time, never. "Daughter of Papa's little sister!"
"B-B-B-But then, she is...!"
"Eight in line to the Mol-Mol throne, yeah."
Okay, Mei had always known Sister Shakti had to be foreign, with the dark skin combined with the exotic name and the blond hair and the green eyes, but this...
"B-B-But in that case, why would she—"
"Why would I live in a Japanese pension?" Suu interjected even before the question was finished.
Mei made a stunned pause and nodded in understanding. "It mustn't be easy at all, uh..."
"I don't complain!"
"You never do."
"Nope. What's the point?"
Kaolla's smile in the dark was still genuinely happy, but Mei had to wonder if that wasn't just because Kaolla was that kind of girl. Sister Shakti obviously had to feel worse about her own circumstances. And that explained why she never used her family name anywhere.
She would have asked more, but then Suu had fallen asleep rather quickly, her chin resting on Maria's scalp, both deeply tanned girls hugging each other.
No wonder why Kaolla had no problems connecting (often literally) with poor people, Mei pondered.

The Kiss of War
- Quote:
-
Misa was impressed beyond words by how fast Angel GA Rd moved across the battlefield, slaying demons at left and right even as more of them poured from everywhere to replace those who had just fallen. Which wasn't to say the others in her group weren't doing anything; Negi was fairly impressive himself, more driven than ever since their victory against Kotaro, throwing precise spells at left and right.
Misa and Chisame were more limited in what their attacks could do, but still held their own, and although Misora wasn't visible as anything but a shaking blur across the place tripping demons down while whining, at least she wasn't running away. Matoi ripped really big rocks off the ground and slammed them down on demons' heads, which wasn't the fastest attack means ever, but at least was something.
Still, the older Setsuna wasn't satisfied. "We aren't getting anywhere!" she said, while slicing a giant Oni's arm before he could swing his mace at Ayaka, Sora and Yuuna. "They only need to stall us until it's too late, and they can do that with superior numbers! Sensei, go ahead! I'll hold them here!"
"Are you crazy?-!" Chisame shouted at her. "They are far too many! You're good, but they'll swarm you over!"
Calculator sighed and raised her voice. "No, she's right! Let's go, I'll leave Mint and Chitose with her!"
"Ah!" Matoi sighed. "That means the job of being Other Chisame-sama's guardian will fall on me, too! But I accept readily! It's like having two guardian angels, except because I'm guarding the angels, and—!"
"WE GET IT, TSUNETSUKI!" both Chisames yelled at her.
"Angels?" a demon gurgled from under the rock Matoi had crushed him with. "Kids today, using bad words at a battleground of honor..."
"Fine, " Negi breathed heavily, taking aim at the path ahead. "I'll clear a way out for us!"
"Yeah, like we're just gonna stand here while you—!" a demon stomped for him swirling a hook and chain around. Lobo was a big idol figure in Hell.
"SAGITTA MAGICA SERIES LUCIS!"
The Lobo wannabe and several of his pals standing in the way were conveniently blasted back home.
"Go, go, go!" Negi ordered, hoping dearly he wasn't leading them to their deaths, with Chisame, Misa and Misora hanging shortly behind. Matoi hung a bit behind them, carrying a groaning Calculator on her back, while Ayaka all but pulled Yuuna and Sora with herself.
"We aren't advancing fast enough!" the Chamo on Negi's right shoulder shouted. "We need more firepower to break through them quicker!"
"And what do you want us to do, ask nicely the demons to stop a minute so you can set your new alliances up?-!" asked Chisame, helping Negi clear the right side of the road while running.
"There's a way! Bro, create a barrier around us and leave the rest to me!" the Chamo on Negi's other shoulder proposed.
"What? What?" Ayaka eagerly caught up to them. "A-A-Am I getting my Pactio now? My own Pactio? My precious, cherished, wonderful Pactio to protect Negi-sensei in health and illness until death does us apart?-!"
"Death is about to do us all apart!" Misora cried. "Fine, do your Pactio, but quick, before we're dead meat!" She may have been a young woman in love, but she was a coward first and foremost. Priorities had to be respected. Besides, not much of a point on loving a dead boy.
"Yeah, well, I'm kinda tired of being, you know, a freaking load!" Yuuna agreed, with her arms full of rocks hastily picked up while the fighters protected her. Now she was tossing those rocks at the demons darting for them from the woods. It was as useless as it was to be expected. "Give me something to fight back, Negi-kun!"
"Oh, shut up!" Misa snapped. "I doubt Sailor V's sidekicks dragged you here kicking and screaming! Why did you come anyway, and how come—"
"Because I'm an idiot, and because I'm friends with Sailor Mercury!" Yuuna summed up.
Misa blinked. "Ah. Well, that works surprisingly well as an explanation for now..."
Finally, Negi screeched to a halt in a relatively safe spot, looking at even more hellbeasts coming their way from the direction they were supposed to take from there on. "Okay. Sorry, Iinchou-san, Yuuna-san, Matoi-san, Sora-san, I understand if you won't—"
"I will!" Ayaka cried, tossing herself against him.
"Ehhhhh!" Chisame pulled her back. "Not so fast!"
"The ermine needs to draw the Pactio circle first, " explained Misora.
"That's right!" a Chamo jumped down, chalk ready and willing. "It'll just take a—!"
The local Chamo jumped down as well, kicked Albert out of his way, and grabbed his own chalk. "Nice try, handsome, but MY Bro, MY place, MY rules, MY profit! Bro, do it now!"
"Very well, " Negi sighed and held an index finger up. "Ras Tel Mas Kir... O SURGING STORM OF SPRING! SURROUND US WITH YOUR WIND! FLANS BARIES VENTI VELVENTI!"
Several nearby Kappa sprites, tiny men with tridents, succubi, lawyer demons, beasties with spears and Jersey devils, and even a random Chupacabra, were sent flying in all directions as a huge circle wall of compressed wind appeared surrounding the youngsters, firmly leaving the denizens of the not so nice place outside.
"WHOA, LOOK AT THAT!" an armored demon with orange skin shouted.
"You know, we should have brought an Infernal Black Magus, " another one recalled, "What about the short guy with the funny hat?"
"The Black Mage dude? Man, no way! That little jerk was an asshole!"
"Yeah, but without a mage, what do we do?"
"Don't ask me, I'm just a grunt!"
"Can't we see if we can beak through the barrier?"
"What's the point? Those things never hold up for more than a couple minutes. Let's use that time to rest a little and get ready..."
"We could try hitting on the chick with the sword back there. She's cute."
"She's just cut Bealial's crotch off."
"Well, yeah, some like to play a little rough in the first date, so what...?"
Meanwhile, inside of the barrier, Chamo giggled giddily while finishing the circle. Ayaka, Sora and Yuuna watched in fascination how it glowed. "Let's hurry then, ladies! You too, Calculator-nee! Who knows, you might get an extra Artifact out of my Bro here! But hurry up, the barrier won't hold for long!"
Calculator made a face. "I think I'm going to have to pass—"
"FIRST DIBS!" Ayaka growled possessively, grabbing Negi by the shoulders. Then, noticing the perplexed way the boy looked at her, she charmingly blushed. "Oh, what I mean is, i-if you don't mind..."
He shook his head, a mechanically. "N-N-Not at all. I'm g-glad you are so generous, offering yourself to help so selfessly, Iinchou-san..."
Ayaka's heart soared and her nose shot a straight fine geyser of blood.
"IINCHOU-SAN!" Negi gasped. "A-Are you—?-!"
Yuuna snorted while Sora trembled in place. "Well. If Iinchou is sick and can't do it, then let me—"
Ayaka recovered instantly, grabbing Negi's shoulders again. "I'm perfectly healthy, Akashi-san, thank you!"
"Iinchou-san, your nose's still leaking blood..." Negi gently caked a tissue on her flowing nosebleed, trying his best to stop it.

Bealial? Never heard that name. Belial, however, I've heard a couple times.
As long as it's not the Lesser Evil Belial, Giant Invulnerable Rat, shouldn't be a problem.

Yes I am. I said I would, and I hate going back on my word. IANCE, you pustulating whoreson, I am going to find you when this is over. They will make a torture porn movie about your death, and they will have to tone it down to maintain suspension of disbelief.

It was misspelled on purpose. Basically, it's supposed to be a third rate Belial.
The DCU Belial, however, was Etrigan and Merlin's father and a real bad mofo, IIRC.

I should probably add a note to You Know What that she's stocked up on nose bleed preventative medicines and started taking them regularly.
Very funny, incidentally.

Our First Time
- Quote:
-
Literally in the eye of a hurricane of his own making, Negi Springfield felt an even worse storm brewing inside of his heart as the much taller Class Rep stood before him on the glowing circle, which illuminated their faces somewhat eerily in the middle of the night.
Shame, fear, anxiety, and a hint of something strange and alluring warred inside of him as he watched into Ayaka's large amd mesmerizing clear blue eyes. She seemed similarly troubled as she stared into his. They remained quiet and silent like statues. Even Sora began tapping her foot softly.
"A-All right..." Ayaka began stammering, her body twitching at periodic intervals, "N-N-now we can start, right...?"
"Yes, please, before Konoka's dead, " Yuuna snarked from the sidelines.
"Iinchou-san..." Negi said, his own lips pale and trembling, "... If-If you're afraid and don't want this, just say it so, a-and no one will hold it against you. We will—"
"NO!" Ayaka shouted, so loudly some of the demons outside actually worried about what the hell was happening in there. She squeezed Negi's shoulders so much Negi actually thought she wanted to hurt him, for some reason, for a second. "Sensei, I'd never leave your side in your hour of need! At this very moment, I, Yukihiro Ayaka, tremble and shudder at the thought of this great weight placed upon your shoulders!"
"We all know your name already..." Chisame sighed.
Not hearing her at all, Ayaka continued, with eyes watering with waterfalls, "It is with joy, ecstasy and infinite thankfulness I accept this chance to help you carry that burden! I don't mind being involved with the secrets of your life! Your whole life, even! I'd follow you to hell and beyond! Any moment spent at your side will be nothing but pure bliss! At fourteen years old, Yukihiro Ayaka would die with no regrets as long as I'm holding your hand!"
"The idea here is not dying at all!" Misora shrieked.
Negi stood perfectly still, with blank eyes. "Okay. Sorry if I offended you..."
"Fu fu fu, you'd have to be the devil himself to reject an offer that heartfelt, Bro..." Chamo chuckled.
Matoi nodded while taking notes of Ayaka's speech. Maybe some of that could be useful for her too, later on. "Indeed. Very passionate."
"I-In that case, here we go..." Negi still doubted, even as he, with red tinted cheeks, reached up and grabbed Ayaka's cheeks between both hands, slowly pulling her face down to his level. She trembled and had to close her eyes, her face so red it was almost purple now.
"P-P-Please be gentle..." she whispered.
He nodded, and made a vague sound of agreement. His lips searched for hers, but still couldn't land properly, too shaky and hesitant.
And then, she whispered again, "I love you."
"Eh?" he said, right before her face came lower, and her lips hungrily mashed against his.
"YES! PACTIO!" both Chamos jumped high, hugging each other.
"What the heck is this?-!" Misa cried when the circle glowed even brighter, a burst of magic puffing out of it, with so much energy it blew the girls' skirts up for a moment. "Hey, mine didn't do this!" She had to shield her eyes with a forearm from the all consuming momentary light.
"Hey, ermine!" Yuuna shouted. "Is this normal in these cases?-! I can feel the ground quaking under me!"
Chisame's face made a few funny expressions. "I-It never reacted like this before, and I watched all of his Pactios but two...!"
Chamo made a low whistling sound. "Could this be... The explossive power of Iincho Ojou-chan's spirit at work?-!"
Negi began twitching and apparently gagging as Ayaka pressed him against her, as if she never wanted to let him go. Misa and Haruna had both snaked their tongues in his mouth when they had their Contracts, but Ayaka's acted as if it wanted to drill its way down his throat. It wasn't like it felt bad, but it was starting to leave him breathless...
A card started to show up in mid-air, over their heads.
"Oh, it's Ojou-chan's, " Albert noted. "When we did it at home, our Ojou-chan's kiss was so strong, the card was going to be Aniki's at first. I guess this one is younger, and so she has less power, but still..."
The other Chamo looked at the card's slowly developing features and fumed. "No, this is bad! It isn't an attack card!" He saw the lack of a visible Artifact, the non combat dress she was wearing. "It won't be any good in a battle!"
Overhearing it, Ayaka panicked. Oh, no! Was her testimony of love all for naught? Was she going to fail her beloved in his darkest hour? No, no, no, no! She had to get something useful in combat! How, how? Maybe if she deepened the kiss, made it more violent...
Negi spazzed to the point Chisame felt tempted to just pry him apart from Ayaka, his eyes bulging out madly. Ayaka was all but crushing him against herself now, her breasts mashed against his chest, Negi's feet dangling slightly over the ground as she literally lifted him up to enjoy his lips better.
Then the circle literally roared like an angry god, and everyone around it felt a jolt shooting straight up their brains. Misa felt a weird need to check if her panties were okay.
"Ahhhhhh!" Chamo gasped, looking up with starry eyes. "Amazing! Ojou-chan changed the card!"
"What?" Albert blinked as the Pactio card fluttered down between them. It still read Burgensis Florens, but now it showed Ayaka in a black miniskirted costume, with a tiara on her head and a whip in a hand, laughing in a typical Ojou way, her free hand resting near her mouth. Black rose petals flew all around her in the picture.
"Alright!" Chamo cheered. "Now this can be useful here! GREAT job, Ojou-chan!"
Ayaka and Negi's mouths made a wet slurping sound as the girl finally pulled her face from Negi's, catching her breath while the teacher fell to his feet, Chisame supporting his near catatonic form from behind. The Class Rep wasn't much better herself, a blob of their combined saliva dangling from her mouth. "I think... I think I can die happy no—"
"NO 'D' WORD!" Misora ordered.
Misa looked down in shame. "I've been outdone by Iinchou... W-What did I do wrong? H-How could I possibly improve...?"
Chisame patted Negi's cheeks. "Hey, are you alive? Get back to us, please! You have to make a copy of the card, and then make one for Akashi! You c-can't die on us like this!"
Negi exhaled and inhaled while regaining control over himself. "That... That was scary. Beautiful, but scary..."
"Beautiful?-!" Chisame, Misora and Misa said at once.
As if in a trance, he said, "Not as sweet as Chisame-san's, but warmer... Not as wet as Hakase-san's, but firmer... Not as solid as Asuna-san's, but..."
"My God, he keeps them categorized!" Calculator marveled.
"Sweet? Mine?" Chisame honestly didn't know how to react to that.
"Ah!" Matoi swooned. "Now I know what sweetness to look forward to when—!"
Vacantly, Chisame's arm that wasn't holding Negi spun back to plant its elbow against the Tsunetsuki girl's mouth.

The Fate you Can't Escape From

Ayaka held her brand new copy of the Card, looking up at it with huge worshipping eyes. "The crystallization of our love... Our first child...!"
"Okay, now this is creepy, " Misora said, standing at a side with her eyes being nothing but solid black spheres.
"Now that, we can agree on, " Chisame grumbled, herding Yuuna ahead. "Well, your darn turn, Akashi! You came out of nowhere just for this, didn't you? Make yourself useful then!"
"To be honest, " Yuuna sighed, "I'm not even really sure why I came here..."
She stopped before Negi, whose face was still red but whose breath had returned to normalcy. She looked down at him, biting her lower lip at his flushed expression and nervous appearance. "Um, I know there's no way this kiss can compare to that one, but..."
"It-It doesn't have to compare, really!" he was quick to offer. "You're all great... Um, I mean great girls, and you, ah, not like I know the first thing about kisses, but you all kiss well, I'm sure... I mean, not like I'd ever want to kiss you all, it's just you all so far have kissed well, so I'm sure you can too... N-Not like I'd mind if you couldn't, although I'm sure you can, although that isn't what matters now, not that I'm trying to offend your feminity, just saying the situation is... is..."
Yuuna had to laugh. "Oh, Negi-kun! You're adorable!"
He blushed even more if that was possible. Sour faces abounded betwen the other girls.
She crouched down so her face was parallel to his, and smiled softly at him. "Negi-kun. I have seen things, so many things that have broken my smile lately. So many things that have changed the way I look at the world. And even so, somehow, you can make me feel lively again. I don't know, maybe everything's a lost cause after all. But it won't be because we don't try, right?"
"What are you talking about?" he had to ask. "Yuuna-san, what is troubling you so—"
She shook her head, placing a finger on his lips. "Never mind that. That's something that happened elsewhere, at another time. Maybe we'll get there, maybe we won't. Whatever happens, however, I know you'll be there for us, and I want to be there for you. I've made many mistakes, but I swear I won't make at least one. I won't fail you because my lack of trying."
Chamo blinked. "Whoa. That's surprisingly deep, Akashi nee-chan."
She shot him an annoyed side glare. "Why, because I'm the token basketball flat minded jock? I'm a girl with feelings too, you know! I mean... don't get me wrong, I don't feel for him the way you girls do, but that doesn't mean I can't care—!"
Chisame angrily shouted, "Time limit! We're on a time limit, damn it!"
"Okay, okay, I forgot you don't like being reminded of your own feelings! Sheesh!" Yuuna turned her face back to Negi. "On the count of three!"
Negi nodded quickly. "Yes! One—"
Then Yuuna was kissing his mouth, deeply, slowly, not as intensely as Ayaka, as awkwardly sweetly as Chisame, as roughly charming as Asuna, or as mischievously playful as Sakurako. While he was ignorant of it, it was the experience showing in the kiss. It was a truly mature kiss, more detached than Ayaka's, but that made it less blatant and easier to enjoy. She didn't use her tongue, but it still was surprisingly affectionate and deep.
"PACTIO!" Chamo waved a miniature flag as the Card flew down, with Yuuna separating her lips from Negi and taking a hand aside to catch it before it hit the floor. Negi reeled a bit, placing a hand on his lips, while Yuuna examined the card.
Damn, it was much like the description she had gathered of that other girl's Pactio. It had her in a (rather slutty?) set of skimpy black leather top and short shorts, with a long and open badass trenchcoat over them, plus tall boots. She had a gun in each hand, and even winked an eye in a way that could have easily been described as salacious.
Acasi Juna.
Strenuus Arcarius.
"Oh! Oh!" one of the Chamos had climbed onto her shoulder to take a good look at the card, his counterpart following him closely. "That's a good one for this kind of situation!"
"Yes, it is!" Albert agreed. "Our Yuna-neechan has one just like that!"
"So she does too, huh..." Yuuna forced a smile. It looked that kind of Pactio was another thing she just couldn't escape from. Well, at the very least, she hadn't thought of Daddy while kissing Negi-kun. That had to be a good sign, right? "But I've never shot a gun in my life. That's more of Makie's thing. She shoots all the prizes at the fairs..."
"On the list of things I never thought I'd heard..." Albert mused. "Well, but if the Pactio system gave you that card, it must be because you have the gift for it, Nee-chan! I'm sure you'll do great! Now, who's next? Calculator-nee? Matoi-neechan?"
"I've told you I'm not going there!" Calculator protested.
Matoi's face scrounched, and discreetly, she kicked Sora in a leg from behind, making her stumble ahead.
"Aie!" the college student yiped.
"Oh, we have a voluntary! Good, good!" Chamo rubbed his paws.
"Sora-san?" Negi blinked twice.
Chisame gave her older sister a surprised look.
"Wh-What?" Sora rasped uncomfortably. Her blush was so bright it had swallowed her freckles down.
