Heh, and another. Starting with an idea that has been needling me for a long while now: what if Negi had the Planeswalker's spark?
Essentially, what it boils down to is that while he can't become a full fledged 'Walker (at least not yet), he's already capable, on an instinctive level, of summoning and using relatively high level spells from Magic.
The first sign of this power of his is when he summons his first creature, as well as familiar/guardian/mentor. It happens during the attack on his village by demons. The Thousand Master is late, and upon seeing his sisters in danger, Negi reaches for a power he didn't know he had, and instinctively unleashes it, summoning the legendary Angel of Wrath, Akroma, on the field of battle.
The action turns the tides as decisively as if the Thousand Master had appeared, with Akroma cutting a terrifying swath of destruction among the confused demons, which eventually retreat, but not before setting the village on fire and turning everything they could reach to rubble. However, Negi's intent succeeded - his sisters were both safe, though the same could not be said of the rest of the village.
Following that, with Negi unconscious from the effort, the Thousand Master shows up and it turns out that he simply doesn't have enough power to send her back where she belongs - only Negi can, and only if he can somehow master his power. But for this to happen, he needs to survive, and Nagi asks her to become the boy's protector, as the power he's displayed that day would surely make him a giant target.
Fast forward to his arrival at Mahora. Negi isn't alone - he's accompanied by a beautiful, ethereal woman with alabaster skin and blue hair. Few pick up the aura of repressed magic coming from her, and fewer still were forewarned of their coming.
Thus, Mahora Academy changes forever, thanks to the presence of Negi Springfield, apprentice Magister Magi and future Reality Shaper, and his faithful guardian Akroma, the Angelic Illusion.
More details have yet to be worked out, but one thing is for sure - with Akroma at his side, this is a Negi tyhat, while still rather naive, is a lot less hesitant in battle, as he'd take after the Angel's motto: 'No rest. No mercy. No matter what.'
Hey, she IS called 'Angel of Wrath' for a reason, y'know?
Thoughts?
Reference for what Akroma looks like:
