Okay, there was a Zero no Tsukaima fic a few years back that twisted the usual model. Most play the what if Louise summoned X instead of Saito? This one was one of two I know of that ask what if Louise failed to summon a familiar.
In this one Louise didn't succeed in casting the familiar spell and no one was pulled from another world to serve her. Instead the spell went wrong and her mind was tossed into the cyberspace of another universe where everyone assumed she just yet another scanned in mind. She spent enough time there to get over her shock and settle in and assume she was there for good and then got yanked back into her body. Of course having failed to summon a familiar she lost her place as a student and the story was what she did instead of being a student. At one point realizing that a neighboring kingdom's unbreakable code was basically the Vigenere Cipher (which once you realize the weakness goes from unbreakable to barely 'keep your kid sister out' strong).
Anyone else recall this one and where it can be found?

Will the transhumanist future have catgirls? Does Japan still exist? Well, there is your answer.
