A small note before you begin. I for this story will be using English dub names and terms in conjunction with Japanese names aka the ones never dubbed. I'm sorry if this causes confusion but it was easier to write it this way
Chapter 1: Familiar Faces
Dori POV
I awoke in a dark place. I looked around frantically wondering where I was and why I was their. I looked around more and more and eventually recognized I was in the magic shop. Yes the same magic shop I work in with my friends for almost 4 years at this point but it was off. It was darker less colorful and I felt cold and sad before something caught my attention. It was a person in shadow wearing a dark robe of shorts. As they figure cams closer I saw it's face. It was a handsome face with tanner skin than I was use to seeing with some green eyes and a familiar smile with equally familiar purple hair. It was… "Akatsuki" I Said joyful and confused. "Dori you need to come out with me. Everyone's waiting. Please stop hiding?" He asked me confused. "What are you talking about Akatsuki?" I asked as he looked at me. "Oh..You'll learn later trust me your not the Dori I'm looking for yet." He said as he began to walk out as I reached for him but he vanished however I was soon on the ground now as my sister came into the room. "Dori are you ok!!!" She said rushing to me. "I'm fine…." I said hurt from the fall. As I got up and ate breakfast I was not taking as I was to busy thinking about my dream. Why was Akatsuki their? What did he mean I'm not the Dori he's looking for? As I was in thought I didn't notice I ate everything until I struck the plate without anything on it and as such I woke out of my state. As I picked my plate up my parents looked at me confused as well as Caitlin who looked at me confused and suspicious. I got up and put my plate in the sink and then walk upstairs to my room. As I began to do my hair in my ondagro style Caitlin came in and shut the door. "Dori what's up today? You so quiet your not acting like yourself." She said as I looked at her debating telling her my dream. "I had an odd dream last night. I need to tell someone so can I tell you." I ask her growing serious knowing I don't want it to spread. "Sure thing sis" She said understanding my seriousness. I told her about my dream and when I ended she looked at me excited.!"So you had a dream about your this boy." She said as she smiled. "Yeah.." I Said. "Seems your in love with him." She said as I blushed twill my face turned as red as my hair. "What no I it's complicated!!!" I Said as she smiled. "Oh really why's that. " said Caitlin. "Well remember those wizards that tried to kidnap Hana 2 years with Oyajide...well he was one of them.." I said as Caitlin looked at me upset. "Dori how could you love a person who kidnap a baby!!!!" she said as I shook my head. "He and others has a perfectly good reason to!!!!!" I said angry at her. "The king needed her to restore himself back to normal and to restore their land!!" I finished as she seemed sheepish. "Oh apology but they could've have handled it better." Said Caitlin before our mom interrupted. "Dori Caitlin you have 5 minutes before you leave for school!!" She said as we panicked. "We'll talk later" I said pushing her out the room and closing it so I can finish. Once we left for school she ran off to her friends as I was alone. I was later than normal so I'm sure my friends went ahead. As I walked into class I saw Hana and Momo already there. As I sat down a certain nuisance reared his ugly head. "Hey Doopey why so down did some boy stand you up." He said taunting me. I grew angry. "Shut up toad!!!!!" I said he laughed off my attempted comeback as Momo and Hana looked at me. "Mama what's wrong." She asked as I looked at her. "I didn't get a good night sleep and my dream didn't help either." I said as she shrugged it off smiling. "Well don't worry you'll probably feel better later." Momo said as Hana agreed. It made me smile that I have such a nice friend and daughter in Momo and Hana. However my thoughts were broke up as Ms. cooper came into class. "Ok class settle down. Today before our lesson I have a announcement for you. Today we'll be welcoming to new classmates. "New classmates "everyone shouted. "Seriously first Mako then Hana now two more why can't the other class get any new students." Said toad as I had to agree. "Actually since you mentioned it today there are two new kids in both 6th grade classes. "What!!!!" Said the classroom. Two new students coming to our class and the other classroom!!! I wonder who they are? I thought as Ms copper nodded her head and the two came in the classroom and I felt my heart stop. One was a boy with yellow hair that was spiky. He wore a green shirt with open sleeves and white shorts and shoes. Then there was another boy with short purple hair odd for this area that was nicely keeped besides two small pieces of hair outside of the room and almost looking like antenna. He was tanner than another boy I'd seen and was wearing a Chinese outfit that was purple with white shorts and sneakers. As I looked at him I saw he was very handsome and had two nice looking purple eye. It was Akatsuki!! and Leon of the flat4. "Akatsuki!!!" I shouted as I got out of my seat so happily. He looked at me happily. "Hello Dori and hello class nice to meet you." Said Akatsuki as he bowed. "Oh you know Dori that's good." Said my teacher smiling. "Hey you guys my name is Leon. HOW are you." He said having added in his English words to his sentence. "Anyway…. I hope that you enjoy your stay in our class please leon take the seat next to Momo and Akatsuki please take a seat next to Marsaru." Said the teacher as they sat in their seat. After that happened during class many whispering and rumors started up. But all I can think of is joy as Akatsuki is in my life again I wonder how the others feel.
