Inside the dark and empty bathhouse, footsteps are heard as Negi runs through the locker room, armed with his staff and adorned with a light brown cloak.

"Evangeline! Where are you!? Show yourself and release my students, please!" He shouted. His words echoes through the bathhouse as he search for the vampire.

He entered the main community bathroom and searched the area when suddenly a sinister chuckle is heard.

"So, you've finally come, Son of Springfield...!"

"Evangeline!" Negi turned around and glanced at the roof of a small hut. He see's a group of silhouettes as they reveal themselves as Evangeline accompanied by her five servants.

"You're pretty admirable going in alone without your little partner, or rather very foolish." She said mockingly.

"Makie, Yuna, even Akira too?" Negi said worriedly as he see the three standing alongside with Ako, all sharing the same expression she has.

"Consider their fates a warning to you; when someone gets in my way, they lose a few pints. However, you are unfortunate as you won't have any once I'm through with you!"

"You...diabolical fiend!" Negi growled.

"Heh..." Evangeline simply smirked upon his accusing remark.

"...Who are you, exactly?"

Evangeline face-faulted upon his oblivious statement as she reverts into her original child form.

"It's me, you dolt! I'm the one you're looking for!" She exclaimed irritably as she points at herself, surprising Negi.

"Master, please calm down. Your reputation is on the line." Chachamaru said, earning a glare from Evangeline as she calmed down.

"Anyways, the other night we had an unfortunate distraction. But now that you're alone and the full moon is out, we're going to settle this! I'll sink my fangs and drain you completely from your blood!" She declared.

Negi gripped his staff and sharpened his glare at Evangeline. "I won't let you do as you please, Evangeline! I'll put an end to your villainous deeds!" He exclaimed.

"Oh how frightening, my entire body's trembling with fear!" Evangeline said mockingly. "Girls?"

She snapped her fingers and Ako and the others immediately responded by jumping off the roof and in front of Negi.

"Gah! Evangeline, you coward! Using innocent students to fulfill your evil deeds!" Negi said accusingly.

"Oh please, this is all for fulfilling my plan to drain you from your blood. I am an evil mage, you know!" She replied snidely.

The brainwashed girls sans Ako, giggled hypnotically as the slowly approached Negi.

"Come on, Professor Negi, play with us..." Akira cooed.

"Yeah, play with us..." Yuna said.

"We want to have fun with you, Professor Negi..." Makie droned lustfully.

Evangeline chuckled sinisterly. "I'll make you regret coming alone... Get him, my servants!" She commanded.

"Understood, Master Evangeline...!" Ako obeyed as she and the others pounced Negi and grabbed his arms and legs. They started pulling on his cloak and staff as Negi struggled to get free.

"N-no...let go of me!" He demanded. But they continued tugging him with the three giggled hypnotically as Evangeline guffawed.

"Where's your courage now, boy?" She taunted.

As Evangeline's slaves continued pulling Negi from all sides, she struggled to reach a catalyst potion from beneath his cloak and toss it in the air. As the girls took notice on the potion Negi has thrown, he immediately shouted out a spell in Latin.

"Flans Exarmatio!"

The catalyst flashed and blinds the girls as a gust of wind turned their clothes into petals, stripping them naked. However, Ako quickly escaped as her right sleeve gets caught in the blast. Negi quickly escaped from the girls and grabbed his staff as he starts reciting an incantation.

"Ras Tel Ma Scir Magister... Aer et Aqua, Facti Nebula Illis Somnum Brevem!" He extends his staff at the three girls whose covering themselves in shame, and cast his spell. "Nebula Hypnotica!" A soft mist is expelled from his staff as Makie, Akira, and Yuna gets caught in it. They inhaled the mist as their eyes begin to droop, falling unconscious and fall asleep.

"I'm sorry, girls, I'll find a way to cure you from your vampirism." He said to the sleeping trio.

"Hmph, not bad. Looks like it's time for the real thing!" A swarm of bats gathered around Evangeline and formed a cape. "Chachamaru?"

"Yes." She replied obediently as she thrusts herself towards Negi. Ako herself join in as the two stall Negi while Eva prepares her spell.

"Lic Lac La Lac Liliac..."

Negi tries his best avoiding Evangeline's two servant girls' attack while trying not to harm them. However, both Chachamaru and Ako went in opposite directions and he dodged both their attack.

"...Septendecim spiritus glaciales...coeuntes inimicum concidant..."

"Not good..." Negi jumped up, avoiding Chachamaru's attack but is wide open to Evangeline's completed spell.

"See if you can handle this! Sagitta Magica Series Glaciales!" Evangeline launched a series of ice shards at Negi. He shield himself from the attack but gets knocked back, crashing against the window of the bathhouse and sent plummeting.

Suddenly more ice shards trails on Negi as he recovers and ride on his staff. He pull out an antique gun from his cloak and fire at the homing shards, shattering them. Meanwhile, Evangeline, Ako, and Chachamaru continued their pursuit to Negi.

"A magic gun, how rare..." Evangeline said.

"Destruction of all projectiles confirmed. It seems that Professor Negi is an antique collector." Chachamaru said.

Evangeline smirked. "An outfit full of antiques is nothing to laugh at... Ako, Chachamaru, slow him down!"

"Yes, Master." Both replied as they went on ahead.

"Just a little more, I just need to lure her a bit further..." Negi said to himself. Suddenly, he was met by Ako who appeared in front of him and gave him a shock. He nearly fell out of his staff while he was avoiding Ako's kick. As he flies down, Ako slip out a single knife from her sleeve and throws them at Negi.

"Wha! Where did you get these, these are dangerous!" He cried.

"Forgive me, Professor." Ako replied as she throws more knives at him.

Negi frantically avoids Ako's knives when he nearly gets thrown off by Chachamaru's rocket punch. He continues flying while evading both Ako and Chachamaru's attack while Evangeline flies above him. The pursuit continued until they arrived at the bridge of Mahora.

"Nivis Casus!"

A blast of ice hits Negi, nearly throwing him off but he remains on air.

"What power...! How am I supposed to compete against her?"

"What's the matter? All you're doing is running! I thought you want to 'put an end to my villainous deeds'!" Evangeline said while echoing the exact same words Negi said to her. She quickly chants her spell and executes it. "Crystallizatio Tellustris!" In a flash, a wave of ice erupts from the ground and knocks Negi off of his staff and sent him tumbling to the ground.

"Did you really think that your plan of luring me outside the campus would really work? A pretty pathetic strategy don't you think, Springfield?" Evangeline said as both Chachamaru and Ako arrived behind her. "This is checkmate, Springfield."

"(Come on...just a little closer...!)"

The three approached Negi when suddenly, a magic circle flashed below them, giving Evangeline a surprise.

"W-what is this, a binding field!?" She tried to struggle her way out as light tendrils latch on to her while both Ako and Chachamaru gave no resistance.

"Yes! I did it! I've got you now, Evangeline! Now you can't escape, I win!" Negi shouted in joy, earning him a flat stare from Evangeline. His moment of victory was soon interrupted by a sudden laugh from the vampire. "What so funny? You should know that you're trapped! The spell is very hard to break out from!"

"You're right, normally I would surrender in a situation like this. However...Chachamaru?"

"Yes, Master. Executing field dissolution program. Forgive me, Professor Negi." Chachamaru said as her robotic ears begin transmitting strange waves. The three are soon broken free of their binding.

"Eh!?" Negi stared in shock upon Evangeline seeing through his spell.

"For many years, I've suffered here in the academy in which I called "Hell". Do you really think I wouldn't have a countermeasure for a trap like this?"

"Impossible...!"

"I don't understand how it works either, but perhaps it's the power of science I believe!" Replied Evangeline.

Without hesitation, Negi quickly chants his spell.

"Ras Tel Ma..."

Suddenly, Chachamaru rush in and grabbed his staff, interrupting his incantation. She then give it to her master.

"Hmph, that man's staff." Without a second thought, Evangeline throws the staff off the bridge.

"Wha! My staff! My most treasured possession! That's really mean of you, Evangeline, I should've won!" He cried.

"For someone who resembled your father, you sure don't act your age..." Evangeline muttered upon Negi's childish outbursts. "Stop crying, just admit that you lost! Your father would've laughed it right off from something like this! But still..."

Chachamaru then go behind Negi and grabbed his arms, restraining his movements.

"I commend you for coming all this way, recklessly without your partner." She approached him, exposing her fangs. "Now then, your blood is mine!" Before she goes and drink Negi's blood, Ako interrupt her from her process.

"Master, there's someone from afar and is coming this way."

Evangeline stops for a moment and glanced at the path leading to the academy. The person revealed herself to be the twintailed girl from 2-A whom they recognized as Asuna Kagurazaka. She darts down the bridge and towards Evangeline and the others to save Negi.

"Hey, hold it right there!" She shouted.

"So, your partner has arrived. Ako, stop her!" She commanded.

"Yes, Master." She obeyed and she darts towards Asuna.

"Chamo, now!"

She throws Negi's furry companion towards Ako as he pulls out a firecracker and a zippo lighter.

"Roger that, Red! Ermine Flash!" He lights up the firecracker and it exploded in a blinding flash of light, forcing Ako to shield herself from the light and Asuna knocks her down.

"Sorry Ako, nothing personal!" She continued her way towards Evangeline who merely grinned as she defend herself.

"Hmph, go ahead! What can a mere human can do against me?"

Asuna makes a mighty leap and lands a hard kick to the vampire's face.

"(Again!? What happened to my barrier?)" The impact of Asuna's kick send her flying towards Negi and Chachamaru and crash into them, forcing Chachamaru to release her grip. Asuna then grabs Negi and hides behind the bridge amidst the chaos.

"Damn it, how is she able to penetrate my defenses again!?" Evangeline asked while rubbing her face from the last attack. She look around and see's both Negi and Asuna absent. "Where did they go!?"

"I'm sorry, Master, but I am unable to locate them." Chachamaru said. "Also, your nose is bleeding."

"Never mind that! Where did they go and where's Ako?"

"I'm alright, Master." Ako replied as she recovered. "It seemed that both Professor Negi and his partner, Asuna Kagurazaka have both went into hiding."

"I can see that! Find them!" Evangeline commanded.

Suddenly, a flash of light shone behind them.

"That light...is that where they were hiding?" Said a surprised Evangeline. The light fades out as both Negi and Asuna appeared before them. "So, you decided to come out of hiding and fight me, with your partner alongside no less!"

"Yeah? Now where's fighting on even grounds! It's two against two!" Asuna said.

"Oh? Have you forgotten my other servant?" Evangeline said as Ako stood alongside her. "No matter what you think, that fool doesn't have his staff to fight with!"

"Oh yeah? We'll just see about that!" Asuna said as Negi nods his head.

"Chachamaru, Ako, don't underestimate the girl. She's stronger than she looks."

Ako nods her head as the two replied "Understood, Master."

"Let's go, forget the fact that I'm a student! Show me all of your strength, Springfield!"

Negi intensifies his glare. "All right!" He raised his hand in the air and recite an incantation. "Sis mea pars per nonaginta secundas...ministra magus... Asuna Cagurazaca!"

At the same time, Evangeline recite her incantation but this time on Ako's name as both Chachamaru and Ako darts towards Negi. Asuna managed to block Chachamaru's attack but jumps back as Ako nearly lands a dropkick at her. Meanwhile, both Negi and Evangeline proceed to engage in their own fight as the two recite their incantation.

"Sagitta Magica Series Glaciales!" Evangeline fired a barrage of ice shards at him as Negi pulled out a smaller wand and execute his spell.

"Fulguriralis!" He launched a series of lightning arrows at the shards but some of them hits him and he staggered.

"So you can conjure lightning as well! But the incantation was too long! Undetriginta Spiritus Obscuri!" She fired a blast of dark energy which splits into 29 arrows.

"29 of them!?" In a hurry, Negi chants a spell and quickly fired his wand. "Undetriginta Spiritus Lucis!" A volley of light arrows were launched from his wand and they all collided with Evangeline's dark arrows and explode upon contact. Meanwhile, Asuna took down Chachamaru through a leg sweep as she continues to fight off Ako.

"Damn, I never knew you were that strong, Ako!" She said while blocking a punch.

"I would've said the same to you, Asuna." Ako replied as she trips Asuna and land a punch to her. But Asuna quickly rolled to the side and evade her attack.

Negi and Evangeline continued their skirmish as Negi hide behind the dust clouds.

"Ahahaha! You're doing well, Springfield! But not good enough!"

"Darn it, she's really strong...! To think my father beat her, and he did it so easily... But...I can beat her too!" He emerge out of the clouds and began chanting.

"Ras Tel Ma Scir Magister...! Veniant Spiritus Aeriales Fulgurientes!"

"So, you can cast a high level spell? Well two can play it this game! Lic Lac La Lac Lilac...! Veniant Spiritus Glaciales Obscurantes!"

"Cum Fulguratione Flet Tempestas Austrina...!"

"Cum Obscuratione Flet Tempestas Nivalis...!"

Meanwhile, Chamo hide behind the rails and watch the fight between Negi and Evangeline.

"No way...she can cast the same spell as Negi?"

"Jovis Tempestas Fulguriens!"

"Nivis Tempestas Obscurans!"

The two fired their respective spells of different elements as they collided with each other.

"Guh...! To think he has that much strength!"

"What power...it's overwhelming! But...I mustn't...give up!" Negi kept his wand steady as he intensifies his spell. Suddenly, his nose begin to itch as the two spells are still in a struggle.

"HAAHCHOO!"

With one mighty sneeze, Negi's wand broke as his spell broke through the struggle and towards Evangeline.

"W...what!?"

The spell hit her directly as Asuna, Ako, and Chachamaru stopped fighting and watched the explosion.

"Negi!"

"Master!"

The smoke cleared as Evangeline remained standing and stripped naked due to Negi's attack.

"Heh...now you've done it. Just what I've expected from you... Just what I've expected from the son of that man...!"

"Her...her clothes came off!? I'm so sorry!" Said a flustered Negi while apologizing.

Evangeline sneered. "This isn't over yet! I still have plenty of tricks under my sleeve!"

Chachamaru looked back and see the lights from the city turning back on. "Master, you have to get back! The blackout is ending 7 minutes and 27 seconds earlier than expected!"

"What?"

Suddenly all the power went back on and Evangeline shrieked in pain. All her power are sealed as she was sent plummeting down off the bridge.

"Master Evangeline!" Ako shouted as she dive down to save her.

"Ako!" Negi and Asuna cried.

"You idiot, are you trying to die as well!?" Evangeline shouted.

But Ako didn't listen as she reached to Evangeline and grabs her. She hold on to her master as the two plummet straight down to the water.

"You're finally awake."

Ako opened her eyes and see Evangeline entering her room and greets her. A flash of memory is projected inside her mind as she remembers the vampire biting her neck. She ran her fingers through the back of her neck and feel two tiny holes behind her neck.

"You don't remember, do you? I gave you your second life." She said.

She remember it clearly, she was dying in the middle of the snow when she appeared before her. With her saving her life, Ako doesn't know how to express her gratitude. But Ako realize that she really can't. She couldn't bring herself to smile or show any expression.

"What are you staring at, do I have something on my face?" Evangeline asked.

Ako shook her head slowly, not showing any sign of change of her expression.

"Well, are you going to say something?" Evangeline asked. "Well it doesn't matter anyways. What really matter is that I gave you a second chance. In exchange that you will serve me eternally for as long as I live!" She said with a prideful grin. "Do you understand our terms, my servant?"

Ako nods her head and obeyed.

"Yes, Master..."

"I'm happy to serve you till the very end, Master..." Ako closed her eyes and braced for impact as everything around them went silent. But she didn't felt it, she didn't felt the cold water splash against them as they plummet underwater. Instead, she opened her eyes and see herself and her master on Negi's staff with him grabbing on to Ako's leg.

"I gotcha, hang on!" He hoisted them up and they were on his arms.

"You...why did you save me? Why did you save us?" Evangeline asked.

"Well...you two are my students. I would do anything to protect my class!" Negi replied.

They landed back on the bridge as Asuna and Chachamaru greets them with worry and relief. Negi happily declared victory much to Evangeline's dismay as she reluctantly promise to attend his class everyday along with Chachamaru. But she is disgusted on Negi writing the class roster boasting his victory.

"So, does that mean they made up?" Asuna asked.

"Who knows?" Chachamaru replied.

While Evangeline is arguing with Negi, Ako felt something that she has never felt in a long time. Her mouth slowly formed a small smile as she watched her master bickering with Negi.

"Holy crap, you're smiling!" Asuna shouted.

"Smiling...?" Ako touched her mouth bewildered by the word.

"Hmph, so you're slowly regaining your happiness?" Evangeline said.

"Regain?" Ako shook her head and replied. "No...not regaining, I...I think I earned it when I'm with you, Master."

"Well would you look at that, she's happy to be with you, Eva!" Asuna said with glee.

Evangeline however, frowned in disgust. "Don't be absurd! How can she be happy when she nearly died trying to save me?"

"Because she really cared about you, Evangeline." Negi replied smiling sheepishly.

"Shut it, Springfield! Argh, I'm going to bed..." She said in defeat as Chachamaru followed her home. Ako followed suit but is stopped by Negi.

"Ako, are you sure you want to go back? I mean, I can cure you from your vampirism as well as the others!"

Ako shook her head. "It's alright. Master Evangeline saved my life, I am forever in her debt." She replied with a small smile etched on her face. "Good night, Professor Negi." She proceeds to follow Evangeline home, leaving Negi to wonder about Ako's debt to Evangeline.
