Story #1: Be More Ladylike! (Featuring the Feminine cat Yo-kai, Sailornyan!)

Prologue

A spotlight shines to reveal Whisper in his trademark suit and tie. "Good evening, whis~." He said with his eyes closed and his arms behind his back. "Thank you for joining me tonight. Tell me, are you familiar with the concept of a "what if" scenario?" Whisper quickly opens his eyes as if he's surprised by the non-existent audience's answer. "No?" He asks. "Then allow me to explain."

Whisper pulls down a projection screen and takes out a pointer to use on it. "You see, 'what ifs' act as alternate realities to events that actually took place in one's timeline." He explained while tapping on the screen, moving his pointer to the following images as he described them. "For instance, what if our friend Komasan never left the countryside? What if Manjimutt never experienced that fateful accident which turned him into a Yo-kai? What if all humans had Yo-kai Watches and lived in peace and harmony alongside Yo-kai?"

"Those are only a few examples of this type of scenario, and tonight's story is no different, whis~." Whisper explained as he pulled up the projector screen. He then floated towards a door and began to open it. "For we shall enter one of these alternate realities where our current timeline is irrelevant. Names you may be familiar with might be different, everyone you thought you knew might have new personalities, some Yo-kai might have different powers than usual, all this and more when we dive into the world of 'what if!' Whis~!" After entering and shutting the door, the spotlight shuts off.

Chapter 1

"Zzz… whis~ zzz… whis~" snored Whisper while asleep in the floor, "Who you callin' egghead?" Being the ghostly Yo-kai he is, he always preferred to sleep while halfway phased through the floor instead of in a shikibuton. A few seconds later, his snot bubble pops as he lets out a loud yawn while stretching.

"Ah I slept like a baby last night," he yawned out with his eyes half open. "How about you, Keita?"

Hearing no response from Keita, Whisper begins to open his eyes some more and starts looking around.

"Keita? Hello? Jibanyan? Anyone here? Huh, I guess they took off without me."

After a few seconds, he begins to realize something is off about Keita's room.

"WAIT A MINUTE! A pink carpet? A dresser lined with stuffed animals? The smell of flowers instead of gym socks? I'M BACK IN FUMIKA'S ROOM!" Whisper shook like crazy. "B-but how is this possible?" He then gave himself a slap. "Oh I remember now! Last time this happened it all turned out to be a dream!"

Whisper begins pinching and pulling his cheek as hard as he can to wake himself up.

"Just… gotta.. wake.. up! Whis~!" He grunted. Whisper lets go snapping his now reddish cheek back into place.

"Well that hurt, and just like last time I'm still in Fumika's room instead of Keita's." Whisper took a minute to think. "Hmm, speaking of which the room looks a bit different than before, and if I remember correctly Jibanyan's evil evolution, Baddinyan, was supposed to be here too but he seems to be gone. Whis~?"

Whisper nervously begins to float towards Fumika's closet.

"If Baddinyan is gone then I wonder if…"

Whisper opens the closet to reveal Shadow Venoct whose dragon heads snarl at him.

"YAHH!" he screams while quickly shutting the closet doors, "Nope! Still there unfortunately."

Whisper suddenly hears the footsteps and voice of someone familiar coming up the stairs.

"Whisper! I'm back from the store! I got you some chocobars!"

The door opens to reveal Keita's friend and love interest, Fumika Kodama. Or just Fumi for short.

"Good afternoon." she greeted with a bright smile.

"G-good afternoon Fumi," Whisper said nervously while staring at the Yo-kai Watch around her neck as well as the Model Zero Yo-kai Watch on her arm, "I see she still has it and even the Model Zero this time." Whisper thought to himself. "Say Fumi, can you remind me again how long it's been since I gave you the Yo-kai Watch and when you got the Model Zero?"

Fumi unintentionally ignores him while standing with her mouth open looking around her room. "Um, Fumi is everything okay?" Whisper asked, confused.

"Whisper what happened to my room?" asked Fumi as she walked around the room "It's a lot more… "feminine" than I remember leaving it this morning."
