This came into my head after watching an anime called Negima!? Everywhere I saw them about to have sex but then I remembered the main character is ony ten years old. He is a fucking pimp. I salute you Negi person.

Rogein grabbed his staff from the bedside table where he left it and used it to stand himself up. Once up he gave a loud yawned and stretched for abut a minute or two. "Looks like I gotta find out whats happening today. Huh. I wonder if Dein is going to be doing the ceremony too. Oh well. I'll find out sooner or later." Rogein walked out of his little cottage and began walking on the road that lead to the School of Magical Arts. Or the SMA for short. Many people greeted him and someeven offered gifts but he still refused to take them even if they insisted upon it. There were many shops and cottages that were alive with people. He passed by the hot springs where a few females were bathing and looked at his own scales. They were covered in dirt and most were stained with color of various potions he has made over the past few days. Rogein turned to the three females.

"Mind if I join you three?"

They all looked at him with big smiles.

"Oh sure. We don't mind."

Rogein stripped off his cloak and layed it beside the small pool of steaming water.

"So how have the sales been going about these days ladies?"

They all blushed as he entered and made way for him.

"Oh, well...", one started. "We haven't had very many customers lately. In fact we are almost to the end of our own personal money. We've been using it for food lately and since the taxes have risen we don't have enough to pay for a whole lot.", another said.

"It must be hard. But you mustn't forget. We are all rich people. think about how much the poor people get.", Rogein said as he washed away the filth.

"Well, you have a point there. Girls. From now on we shall eat only half of what we usually eat a day. That way we might have a possibility to make it to the festival without being kicked out of the rich districts."

The two other girls agreed.

"Good for you. I'll see what spell I can conjur up and make your future customers double what they will be. And you might not have to do that. I heard a few rumors that there may be a sales check after the festival."

"Oh, really?"

"Yep."

Rogein rinsed himself off and got out of the spring, grabbing his clothes.

"You're leaving already?", one said.

"Please stay for a while longer.", another said.

"I'm sorry but I need to be at the SMA in a few minutes. If I have time later I could stop by."

Rogein continued walking and waved back at the three female jaguars. He held his staff out and it floated in midair. Rogein got onto the staff and he flew off towards the large castle at the end of the road, ignoring all attempts to catch his attention. As he approached he saw there were a few of the royal guards there.

"Why is the king here?"

He slowed down and stopped in front of the school.

"Uh. Is there something wrong?"

"Leave peasant."

D8 "Peasant?! I'm the best graduate this school has had in fourteen years and you're calling me a peasant? Not only that but does it look like I'm a peasant?"

Remembering the clothes he wore he said bfore the Rhino could answer, "Nevermind, don't answer that. But still. What is going on?"

"It does not concern you."

"It's part of the school. It is my concern. Tell me or move aside so I can find out."

the guards only crossed their pikes and stood without movement. The new royal guards are not alive at all. In fact they are just a bunch of segments of stone with magical symbols written on them. the blue light seems to be what holds them together. Though not only that but they have the ability to cast magic themselves.

"I really do not wish to get in trouble for killing a royal guard so step aside please.", Rogein said.

Everyone knew of Rogein's power as a wizard an most feared him for it. The Guards moved their pikes back into their upright positions. Rogein made his way to the big doors and the Rhino moved his pike out in front again.

"If you wish to know then we are not the ones to ask. Not even his wife has been told of what has happened. I advise you be cautious for his holiness seems uneasy lately."

"Noted. I won't cause any harm mentally or physically. I promise."

The rhino moved his pike and Rogein entered the large oak door. What he entered to was an argument between the king himself and the high wizard of the school. Rogein made his way over to the table at which they sat and sat down. Immediately, they both stopped and looked at him.

"Rogein. Care to explain why you have intruded on our little disagreement?"

"Gladly. Something was wrong. So. I investigated. I may be of assistance here. To both of you."

"Actually, Rozhin is it?", said the king.

"Row-zhayn, milord."

"Thank you. Rogein. Yu are indeed of great assistance to this matter at hand. You see. The high wizard's daugheter has gone missing and so has my daughter. Now, the obvious thing to come to mind is that they love each other and are more than likely gay lovers.", said the king.

"That is where anyone who thinks so is wrong. They have both never seen each other in their entire lives and the king's daughter even has a husband already.", The high wizard said.

"Well then why were you two arguing?"

"We were deciding who should go and none of the witches will take the request. Most of the wizards would have asked for a free night to bed them both. Though it's hard to find one who won't ask for either and do to the schools policy of not allowing gay males to enter, there is completely no one we can think of.", the king said.

"Well. I may not have any modesty but I am not sexully active even the slightest bit. I could help fix this situation very easily with a few spells. Though they require your memories of them.", Rogein stated.

"Ah! Yet another issue. All our memories and their memories of us being together have been sealed. All I know is that I have a daughter. I thought I didn't until this morning. And she had been gone for more than three days. How does a father like me forget about his own daughter? And don't bother with anyone they know or even our wives. I checked with my wife and she does not even know of us having a duaghter. I feel so terrible.", said the high wizard.

"Then who we are going up against is a cunning foe. I shall hunt them both down. Though I don't know where they are, I think I have a few ways to find them. Do you have any of their clothing they might have worn?"

"Yes. As a matter of fact there is a big pile of them both ready to be searched for clues. Have a go at it. Here. I'll even help.", said the king as he stood up.

Rogein followed his majesty into a small chamber where a large pile of clothing lay. He pulled out two dresses.

"These have been worn by both of them. The red one by the wizard's daughter. And the blue one by my daughter."

Rogein's hand went to his waist where a small paw of a dog lay strapped to. His nose reshaped into that of a dogs and he sniffed them both. With the scents fresh in his mind, he sniffed the air a couple of times and the picture formed in his mind. he trail lead through valleys, over mountains, and on top of plateus.

"Sir. I am deeply sorry but if they were taken for sexual pleasure then they will be turned into whores by the time I get there.", Rogein said.

The king was shocked by this. His hand went to his chest and he spasmed.

"My chest. My chest hurts!", he called out.

Rogein was immediately in action. He wove a spell out of the strands of golden light in the room and layed it upon the kings chest. The king spasmed once more then passed out. The spell had done its work. His heart attack had subsided and did not take the life of the great king. Rogein smiled in triumph and picked him up.

"Royal guards! Your king is in need of assistance."

The guards bust through the doors, almost throwing them off the hinges. They were upon Rogein in seconds and took the king from his arms. They left quickly and hastely. Not a word had been shared with them for if Rogein were to change their train of though they would have just sat there wondering why their king was being held in their hands.

"You are a great wonder, Rogein. How did you know it was to happen?", the high wizard asked.

"I just looked at the cards quickly this morning and saw a struggle for today and a long journey. That, and when I was taking a bath with those three females earlier I looked at th water mirror. There was a great deed to be done. So I came here."

"Well then. I wish you good luck on your journey. When do you plan on leaving?"

"Well it seems that not only have they been brought almost an entire continent away but they are also in a different dimension of some sort where it seems slave trade is wide spread. I shall travel there but I will have to get back a different way than how I came."

"Well then take this with you. It should aid you greatly."

The high wizard gave Rogein a purple gem the size of a plate and it glowed slightly, a feint humming noise emanating from it. He took it into his pocket and sat on his staff as it hung in the air.

"Thank you. I will make sure to seal up the portal afterwards."

With that he flew off. Rogein sat on his staff with his feet usually hanging to one side. But now that he had to travel o fast, he had his legs hanging to both sides. He held on to the long wooden pole and said the spell in his mind which would send him into a super sonic speed.

___________________________________________________________________________________

As his trip to the gateway being held open to another dimension took place he refused to use any teleportation spells for it might upset the trails that he was following and he wouldn't be able to get to them. He met many new species of dragons he had never seen before and even a few with wings. He wished he had wings. As he neared the subspace rift his heart skipped a beat. The sight was terrible. Many people from his world were being taken into the other dimension. The area was ravaged of its beauty and only black earth remained. He stopped about a mile away and induced a magical cloak to hide himself. With that he entered the rift and felt his scales being chilled to the bone as he passd from dimension A to dimension B. He immediately began looking. The people did not advance in weaponry at all more than his dimension. There were many new devices though. There were machines he had never seen before and even new weaponry. He could feel his cloak fading and decided to take cover. He did so just in time to because as soon as he hid himself it faded. He looked around and observed what the troops looked like. They had on metal and cloth suits that had hexagonal shapes printed on the cloth.

"What to do first?"

Rogein waited until a troop had gotten close enough to him and cast a spell that switched what he was wearing with what Rogein was wearing. At the cost of all his magical tems though. He could just get new ones. Plus his staff is shrinkable. The other troops were immediately upon the different person and shot him dead. Rogein looked at the weapon he was holding and figured that it might not be magic that did that. As he stayed crouching and looking directly out into the work sight someone walked up behind him.

"I see you like the new commander."

Rogein looked over his shoulder and smiled.

"Uh. Yeah. So whats her name?"

"You should know already. It's displayed on the screen up there. See. 'New commander, Auronei Seiletea'."

It hit him almost like those bullets did the guy he switched close with. That was the king's daughter. But now that he has found her, where is the other. He looked over into a small forested area and spotted a little bit of movement. Apparently so did the other troops. They pointed their guns at the spot and looked through the scopes. Rogein tested this and looked at the spot the same way they did. The sight was magnified ten times and he could see what was over their. With a smile, he looked all along the treeline.

"Sniper eye."

His eye became covered in red lines that made shapes and numbers, calculating many things. What he saw was infrared feedback from whatever he was looking at and he saw very many shapes there. Curiosity struck him. He turned to the male next to him.

"How could I get over there?"

"By a solar surfer. Why?"

"How many people do you think are over there?"

"About thirty by what our commander says."

"Well. I'd like to check it out."

"Go ahead. You can use whichever color you like."

Puzzled by this, Rogein thought to himself for a few seconds before asking, "Where are the solar surfers?"

"look to your left. Are you blind or something? And who are you, I haven't seen you around either."

"M-my name is Rogein. I-"

"Oh. It's you Derrick. Why don't you quit tryin to be me. If you do you'll blow my cover."

Rogein was surprised very much.

"Wait. You are me? I mean...What? But I am Rogein. How are you...Show me your face. Take off that thing on your head."

The troop took off the helmet and sure enough, Rogein was looking at himself. Rogein pulled him down behind the crates and removed his helmet.

"I Am you. As simple as that. But from another dimension. I must retrieve a friend from here and seal the portal between our worlds. And by what you just said, you are not against it. You seem to be part of a faction that is against the army. Right now I need your help more than ever."

"Why should I believe you?"

"Your middle name is Degaro."

The copy froze in place.

"I have never told anyone that name. Not even my parents told anyone. You indeed must know me and are possibly me. And being Asexual, no one knows if I am gay or not. So answer me this. What is my sexuality."

"Straigh and a little bit experimental, you sometimes question yourself as being on this planet and why we all struggle to survive."

"Holy shit. You are me."

"I told you. Now, there is more than three hundred people over there. What you are all seeing is people trying to get around on the edge."

"I know. that is the resistance. I shall take you there at once, you can not medal with my plans."

He reached his hand out to Rogein's neck and with a single thought it revered direction.

"What the hell?!"

"Ssshhhh. they will here us. I am a wizard. You don't seem to be able to do what I can do because you were never given the chance. So I will aid you. But when I find my second friend I must leave."

"Who are you talking about?"

"The new commander is from my dimension and my other friend is the daughter of the high wizard."

"Ah yes. People from your world. But why are they helping us if they have been kidnapped?"

"How do you know they have been kidnapped?"

"They were brought in once the portal to your world was reopened."

"Then that means someone from my world is helping someone in your world."

I'll end it there and pick it up in about a day or two. This is just a story to pass the time. Mainly because I can't think of what to write next on my tron story. but don't worry. I won't do like the others. I will finish these both.
