Pov Kotake ON
Hello my beautiful readers, because whoever is reading this probably likes my ship with Doremi (or at least doesn't hate me!). My name is Tetsuya Kotake and I am 8 years old. I will not talk about how I look because I'm sure that everyone here already knows me quite well. I'm not that vain.
Lets continue...
Unlike the version of me in Ojamajo Doremi, I am living with my cousin Kimitaka. His parents live in a different country and have left my family with this devil that only bothers me with me and with my parents who do not make another life than work.
Let's talk about me...
I have two dreams:
First, I'd love to be a soccer player, and second, I want to win Dojimi's love.
The second one seems impossible. What do I have to do to make Doremi love me? It is impossible! She always looks for the cool guys!
"Hey, lovebird! Speed it up! Don't talk to yourself!"
I'm not talking to myself! I am talking with my readers! I left my room and looked at Kimitaka who was looking at me angrily.
"Stop dreaming about that crazy Harukaze and give me my food!"
"The food is in the fridge! And don't insult her! Only I can do that! I go to the kitchen to get something to eat. Do you want me to take you to the kindergarten?"
"Of course not! What will my friends think if they look at me with you?"
"I think in reality you are thinking about what Pop will think if she sees you with your big cousin." I commented with a mocking smile as I put his food in front of him. His face has been red ever since I told him that. Revenge!
"I do not care about what a fool thinks!" Kimitaka yelled with his face all red.
"Yeah yeah ... Kimitaka ... It's just us, the readers and the author of this fic... You can tell the truth!"
"You're so weird …" By now, he's gone to completely ignoring me.
After eating I left school. Like always I stalked my Dojimi, the love of my life.
(...)
Ah look at her watching ... Igarashi... Then the fans are surprised that my other me of the novels makes her wait for my love ...
I hate that Igarashi! Who does he think he is?! He has everything! Is it reasonable to wish that you were somebody who you hate?
"Good morning!"
"Masaru! You scared me!" Masaru Yada has been my best friend since kindergarten. He is very quiet, maybe even antisocial, but has a good heart. But you already knew that, didn't you?
"Again stalking Harukaze?" he gawked at me, "When are you going to tell her your feelings?"
"When you tell Fujiwara how you feel." Ahh~ha! Look at his face! He stopped talking.
"Alright, you win!" He conceded, "But you'd better say how you feel quickly, Kotake. You know how the author feels about your relationship with Harukaze."
"She can be so cruel though!" I complained," Do you remember what happened last time?"
The school's bell ended our talk. Like always in class I watched as Doremi acted like the clumsy idiot that she was for another few minutes. She had some weird obsession with magic.
I didn't care about having magic, but do you know what I would do if I become a wizard? I would make Doremi love me and make myself the best soccer player in the world!
When I stopped daydreaming, I realized that I'd gone a little further than I intended. I was in an unknown place. I felt like I'd seen the store somewhere before though. What a strange Deja Vu.
"Store Flat 4" That's a weird name. Is this real? What can I buy here? Apartments with 4 rooms? : v (Flat = apartments for those who do not know).
Since I had nothing to do, I entered the store, but it was quite dusty, and I found myself coughing quite a bit.
"Finally a customer! Welcome!" Four boys appeared in front of me: One who looks like Segawa Onpu,(Note of the author: It is Kotake who is narrating so it is normal that he makes some jokes about Akatsuki. Akatsuki will make some jokes about Kotake too, so there's no need to be angry, Akatsuki fans), another boy with orange eyes and hair, a third boy with blond hair and blue eyes, even lighter than mine, and another blue-green one. Everybody was quite strangely dressed. "What are you looking for?"
"Uh?" I looked at a table that had some odd emerald necklaces. I stepped up to it.
"That's a magic necklace, you can wish what you want with them!" Magic? There's no doubt that Dojimi will like this ...
"Is it really magic? Surely you're kidding!" I inquired with an arched eyebrow.
"Do you want to try one?" The orange-haired boy asked as he tossed me a necklace.
"I would." I caught the necklace and closed my eyes.
"Wait!" The purple haired boy interrupted me, "You can not change feelings of people or heal wounds, and trying to wish for a massive desire, such as becoming incredibly famous, probably wouldn't work."
"Then I don't want it," I put the necklace back in its place, placed my hands in my pockets and started walking toward the exit.
"WAIT!" All four boys kneeled at my feet "DON'T GO! PLEASE, SEE IF THERE'S SOMETHING YOU'LL PURCHASE! YOU'VE ONLY JUST COME!"
"But I'm not interested in magic," I replied frankly, "and those things won't help me at all."
"Surely you can find something here that suits you!" The blond boy spoke to me, "You have the style of a boy who enjoys sports! Try this! It will help you with sports!"
He gave me a rather strange amulet which looked almost like a soccer ball. Even Dojimi could make something that looked better than that.
"Ehm ... No thanks," I walked towards the door, "I'm leaving!"
"Wait! Please buy something!" They pleaded less emphatically than last time. They almost seemed hopeless. It was pathetic.
Such weirdos.
"Ask for whatever you want!" The guy with purple hair said as he approached me with a crazy look, "We can give it to you!" he continued, "What do you want? Sweets? A soccer ball? A PSP?"
"I want a statue of my crush!" I figured that giving them an impossible order would be enough to make them give up.
"Okay!"
"AKATSUKI N…" the boys tried to stop him, but before my very eyes, a statue of Doremi appeared. According to the mirror across the room, my face looked like an overripe tomato. Crimson, and just a little bit deflated.
"HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT I LOVE HER?! WAIT... AND HOW HAS THIS APPEARED HERE?!" I've looked at them, a little scared, but also a little curious. "Magic amulets, huh?"
I've stared at that Akatsuki. I was frightened, and I knew it, but I kept up my strong front.
"Y-You are…" I pointed my finger at him, "A witch!"
"I AM A WIZARD NOT A WITCH!" he shouted carelessly.
"OK! OK! A wizard it is t…" that boy's body started to shine as he became an abnormal purple creature.
"What the heck!" I exclaimed," See you later!" I grabbed the statue and ran for the door.
"DON'T LET THAT IDIOT GO!" Hearing what Akatsuki said, the blonde guy grabbed me.
"AAAAAAH! I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING! LEAVE ME ALONE!" With magic, they put me in a chair. Akatsuki was sitting on the table with a very annoyed expression. "Let me go! Take my money if you need to!" I exclaimed.
"I don't want your money!" He shouted, "Look what you've done to me!"
"I didn't do anything! I just said that you're a wi…" One of his friends covered my mouth.
"Humans can not know that wizards exist! It's forbidden!" I gaped at him in confusion, "I became this ugly creature because you called me a wizard!"
Finally the other idiot let go of my mouth.
"So you're like this because of me? What do I have to do to make you normal again?"
"You have to become my apprentice!"
"Eh? I don't want to work in a store! I am a kid!"
"It's so that I can make you into a wizard and you can cure me!" he claimed.
"EEEEEEEEEH!? ME, A WIZARD?!" My eyes have shine like stars. With magic I could make all of my dreams come true! Be a soccer player! Make the SOS trio and Reika Tamaki disappear! And ask…
"Don't make that face," he interrupted my wishful thinking, "The rules of the magic necklace are the same for any magic!"
"What?! Could I at least make money appear?"
"Yes…" Oh well something is something!
"But before you transform, tell me your name." another one told me.
"Tetsuya Kotake."
"I am Akatsuki, my ginger colleague is Fujio, the blond is Leon, and the last one is Tooru. We all came from the wizard world so that we can earn money to buy back land that was taken from us by the witches."
"What!?" I asked," I don't understand why you don't live together?"
"No way!" he answered, "Witches and wizards have always been enemies! Or at least for as long as I've known…"
"OK OK! What do I have to do to use magic?" I spoke very quickly because my parents hate when I get home at night, and I had just seen the clock. Late.
"Fujio go get the box, and you, follow me Kotake-kun…" He took me out back to a garden.
I looked at the garden while Fujio put the box on the table.
"This box has something in it called a tap. You'll use that to transform into a Wizard Apprentice."
It was a small, circular, white object. Around its circumference were eight small buttons. In the center was a much larger button. The central button reminded me of a soccer ball in its design.
"You have to press the biggest button." Leon instructed me, "This tap is like an instrument so each small button is a musical note Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do."
"For your Magical poron you have to press Do-Mi-So and high Do." The orange-haired boy told me.
I pressed the button and quickly put on the blue shirt that appeared before me.
"The best future soccer player in the world is here!" I posed like a superhero.
"What did you say?" Everyone has looked at me confusedly.
"All magical boys and girls have a magic words!" I pressed the buttons that Fujio told me. A black magic wand shot out of the tap (which was connected to the uniform.)
"That's a poron! You can do magic with that. You just have to make your wish out loud!" I think the orange one was the brains of their group.
"OK!" I moved my wand and pointed it at the ground, "I want a soccer ball now!"
A blue light erupted from the tip of the poron, and a soccer ball appeared where I pointed. But it didn't take long for the ball to disappear.
"Your wishes won't last long for now. Once you pass the nine exams and become a full wizard they will!" Fujio reminded me.
"How boring! I want to go home! But first how do I fly?"
"You're a wizard apprentice ... You don't fly idiot!" Akatsuki answered, "And you have to listen to me! I am your master now! You can't do many magic or you will run out of magical spheres!"
"Ok... Can I go now?"
"No! You have to listen to me!" I looked at him as he spoke. "Ok you can go! Leave your window open I'll see you tonight!"
"I like girls…"
"IT'S NOTHING WHAT YOU ARE THINKING IDIOT!" He yelled at me with his face all red. I'm going to give you magical spheres!"
"Can you take the statue of Dojimi too?"
"What if I don't take it?"
"You'll stay like this forever!" I returned to normal with a smile.
"I hate you…" Tooru caught Akatsuki before he hit me.
I left the store smiling. In this dimension, nobody can hate me!
End of Chapter 1!
