Hello, everyone! I've been thinking of writing this for a very long time, but lifegot in the way and I uploaded it later than I originally intended, ahaha... Anyway, hoping it won't happen during the time I will take to finish this before school starts, let's proceed to the story!
By the way, I DO NOT OWN ACCHI KOCCHI!
Prologue
It was a nice day as the gang, consisting of Io, Tsumiki, Mayoi and Hime decided to spend the first day of their golden week at Sakaki's place; though the idea itslef came from Mayoi.
"Since today is such a nice day, with this fine weather and all, why don't we play some games?" Mayoi suggested, putting her right hand up in excitement.
"I agree, how about indoor games? Since the park is far from here." Sakaki said.
"Oka-... Gah! The image of Tsumiki trying to spin the top came back to mind! We might be sacrificial beings again!" Mayoi shouted, in terror as she shivered with both hands to the side or her head.
"You're right!" Sakaki agreed, as he too shivered in fear.
Tsumiki heard them and a red aura glowed around her as a vein popped, Io and Hime sweat-dropped as they watched Mayoi and Sakaki bowed their heads comically in apology to Tsumiki.
"Ara ara, then why don't you play board games? I'm sure we have one somewhere." Miiko, Sakaki's sister said; she took a day off that day.
"Hmm, then I'll go check." Sakaki said, as he got up and went to the room to find some board games.
Hime saw Miiko making snacks for everyone at the kitchen; she turned and asked, "Um, do you need any help in the kitchen?"
Miiko smiled her usual smile and answered, "No, no. You guys have fun instead, Kikue's helping me anyway.", she looked over to Kikue, their teacher, having a hard time to figure out which one was which in their kitchen. She also happened to be at their house when the others came over.
"I don't think she'd be any of help, much." Tsumiki stated, as she looked at their teacher.
"Yeah, considering the fact that she always slips..." Io agreed, as he thought back to the time he saw her slipping in front of them.
Then Kikue answered, "Have some faith in your teacher!", as she put a fist in her chest.
"At least she won't slip here, there's no ice on the floor like last time.", and cue, just as Mayoi finished saying that, Kikue slipped and the cups she carried by the tray fell to the floor. Thankfully, they were quite durable and didn't crack on impact. Tsumiki, Io and Mayoi thought in unison, 'As expected...' and Hime just laughed as she asked if she was alright. Then Sakaki came out from the room wearing a magician's cape and hat, and hold a wand with a book, he said "Hey guys, look what I found!"
"Where did those come from?" Io asked, never seeing said items which Sakaki held before in their household.
"That's so cool!" Mayoi exclaimed, as she checked the cape.
"I don't know either. Say, Miiko-nee, where did we get these from?" Sakaki asked.
Miiko looked over and said, "Oh those? I found them neatly kept in a box along the streets; I figured that nobody wanted them anymore so I took them back home. I guess I forgot to tell you."
"Uh-huh, the cape and wand might be for performing magic shows, but what role does this book do, I wonder." Sakaki stated, as he showed them the book that was put along with the cape and wand.
"Let me see! Let me see!" Mayoi said, as she took the book. The book was dark blue in color, had a golden-yellow border with the shapes of a moon, sun, star and a heart at the inner corners of the book. It looked rather mysterious. Mayoi opened the book and flipped the pages, only to find it blank. "Eh? It's all blank, why would they 'throw away' an unused book?" Mayoi asked to nobody in particular, and then she looked behind the front cover and found a few words scribbled. "Oh, there are writings in here."
"What does it say?" Hime asked, as she tried to look at said writing.
"Hmm, it just writes 'write your imaginations'…" Mayoi read out, as she looked at the others.
"Easy enough, let's all write down our imaginations then! We each get one page to write! I'll write first!" Sakaki suggested, as he took the book from Mayoi.
"Wait, don't you think it's strange that it's unused and only some strange message is written here?" Io asked. Sakaki thought for a moment before he answered, "I guess, but what's the harm in writing our imaginations?", Io was about to agree when he heard a sinister laugh, they turned to see Mayoi hunched over and surrounded in a dark aura as she laughed. "I don't even want to think of what imaginations go in her head." Tsumiki stated, as she sweat-dropped on seeing Mayoi, the others agreed.
Soon, Sakaki finished writing and hold out the book, "Who's next?"
"Me! Uweh uweh uweh.." Mayoi exclaimed, as she took the book and laughed her signature laugh.
"I wonder what she wrote." Io stated, "Probably something strange." Tsumiki answered. "ahaha…" Hime laughed, as the three looked at Mayoi still covered in that dark aura.
Soon, "Done! Here Tsumiki-san!" Mayoi said, as she handed the book to Tsumiki.
"You didn't write anything strange, right?" Tsumiki asked.
"Hey, I just wrote my imaginations, nothing wrong with that. Besides Tsumiki-san…" Mayoi headed behind her and whispered, "You'll also be able to write your fantasies about Io-san in the book.", Tsumiki's cat ears popped up as she blushed, she retorted, "I don't have those… f-fantasies…", but she wrote in the book nonetheless.
The remaining two, Io and Hime filled their respective pages without much event happening. Io was the last to fill, so he turned the remaining pages and found a note in the back cover, "Hm? There's a note here as well."
"What does it say?" Mayoi asked.
"It's written, 'to those who have written in this book will go on an adventure like their imaginations.'… Huh?"
"What's that supposed to mean?" Sakaki wondered.
"um.. Maybe, we might live in the book and never return! People will report issing cases of-", Hime screamed and before Mayoi could finish, she was chopped lightly in the head by Io using the book, "That's enough, something like that won't happen."
"It might just be a prank by the last owner." Tsumiki said.
"I guess you're right, ahaha…" Hime replied, both hands in her chest.
Suddenly, the book Io was holding suddenly glowed, Io, shocked, let go of the book. The book then floated to the middle of the room, above them as its pages turned.
"Or maybe not, yahoo!" Mayoi cheered, both hands in the air in celebration.
"Please don't celebrate." Io said, as he looked at Mayoi cheering.
Then Tsumiki exclaimed in shock and said, "! My feet…"
The others looked to Tsumiki's feet to find it being sucked in the book, actually, all of them were being sucked in the book.
"Ara ara, it seems we're getting sucked in as well." Miiko said, a hand in her cheeks as she looked towards them. Kikue was panicking behind her.
"What? But Miiko-nee and sensei haven't wrote in it!" Sakaki exclaimed in shock.
"Ehehe, I included them." Mayoi confessed.
Then Tsumiki thought, 'It it's going to be like in our imaginations, then Io… Io…', lost in her thought, Tsumiki had a nosebleed.
"Waaah! Tsumiki-san?!" Hime exclaimed, shocked to see Tsumiki suddenly having a nosebleed.
Before anyone said anything more, they were all sucked in the book, soon the book itself faded and stopped glowing, and gently floated down the table.
That's all for the prologue, next will be the actual story. In case you're wondering, the time that Mayoi said about Tsumiki trying to spin a top can be found in the manga at chapter 20. Also, I know Sakaki's sister says 'My my' in the English translations, but it thought using 'ara ara' is better. Reviews and suggestions are certainly welcome; it helps me be in a more positive mood to write! Thanks in advance and look forward to new chapters , which hopefully won't be delayed.
