Chapter2: the course of being rich.
The loud noise of the alarm clock disturbs the dream of a snorting red headed girl as she violently slams the stope button, but luck isn't in her favour today as strain voice of her mother says "doremi! Wake up or you going to be late for school today!" doremi woke up and immediately open her drawer then she smile from happiness "yesterday adventure wasn't a dream" she couldn't hold herself and yelled "doremi what is going you!" hearing her mother concerned voice return her to reality as she quietly closed her drawer "nothing mom!" "okay you better hurry the breakfast is ready" "coming!".
Doremi comes down the stairs and sat with her family "doremi you look happy today" doremi's father asked "yeah sis you usually a sleep at this time" "what I'm just excited for school today that's it" " do-doremi!" "excited?!" "for school?!" doremi's mom and dad and her sister pop shout in union "WHAT!" "doremi are you sick!?" "what are you talking guys I just want to get batter at school that it" "doremi would never say this who are you and what have done to my sister!?" "pop stop bothering your sister and you two finish your breakfast and get ready" "okay mom" "okay mom".
Doremi met hazuki on her way to school "hazuki-Chan!" "huh! doremi-Chan!" "where is aiko-Chan?" "huh! I-I don't know" doremi shrug then continue walking with hazuki who seems to be out of it like there is something bothering her doremi looked at hazuki "hazuki-Chan is everything okay?" "huh yeah why do you ask?" "well you look distracted and didn't looked at me when you talk that isn't like you" "nah it's nothing really now let's go doremi-Chan or we will be late" hazuki looked a little cheered but doremi's now that it's fake so she just roll with it because today after school is her first official magic class.
School was quite normal doremi sleep most of her classes or fighting with kotake except for two thing first is the absences of aiko she bring a lot of fun with her jokes and the second is hazuki she didn't talk as she usually do and always spacing off during class "hay dojimi what's wrong with fujiwara?" " as if I know she didn't answer me when I asked her in the morning and why do you care" "it's not for me it for yada" "hehe if he really worried about her he should ask her himself hehe" the bell range indicating that school is over for today and every one start preparing to return home except for doremi who has special classes to day.
In the rusty broom doremi majorika and lala are siting around the table "doremi do you have any question before we start practising" lala asked "yes I do have two questions first what is a magical core second what are these dark spirit thingy?" lala looked at majorika then doremi fallowed her gaze "sigh~~ let's start with magical core that what we call the energy inside every living being this energy is the core of every magic user" " then how my tap cast spell?" "your tap isn't the one casting it's you" "me?" "let me explain the taps are made to help young witches to cast spells by taking little energy from the user core and applying them in the wand" "but aren't the magical spheres are used to cast spell right" "could you shut up and listing it use little energy that aren't enough to even levitate a small rock the purpose of the magical spheres is to boost this energy to successfully cast spells and the main purpose for the tap is to help the user practise drawing energy from their core understood" "yeah kinda" "okay second dark spirits are creatures that feed on negative emotion they can possess physical character only when their will weaken" "so that why the posses people to make other feel negative emotion" "exactly so they can feed and multiply" "so doremi is there other question?" lala asked " no am okay for now" " then if that all follow me" majorika got out to the backyard.
"transform so we can start" "okay!" doremi pressed the button and with the music she dress and at the end she sang "pretty witchy doremi Che!" with her pose "okay now let's start with the practise" doremi practise was the most boring training ever she was levitating boxes then changing their colour nothing exacting like yesterday with frustration and anger she point at the box like she did at the dark spirit before majorika and lala could react doremi shout with an obvious anger in it "artiro!" a dark pink ball of energy hit the box not just sending it flying but vaporising it completely leaving a shocked majorika and sacred lala looking at doremi before majorika could shout at her a familiar sound of bell is heard " we will discuss that later now go and see who is this person cause am sure the sign say close" majorika whisper angrily.
At the rusty broom doremi entered through the back door and greeted the customer who is after greeting her back start looking around "what are you looking for?" "well what are you selling?" "ahh let me talk to the manger I will be right back" "majorika he is customer" doremi whispered "I know just sell him the wishing amulet" majorika whispered back "no way! That thing is dangerous he might hurt himself just like the girl from yesterday!" "shh shh okay okay then tell him we haven't open yet or something" "majorika don't you have anything we can sell him" "I was only depending in the wishing amulets but no you think it's too dangerous" "humph!" doremi just left majorika and lala "majorika I don't think it's a good idea to anger her" " she need to control her anger or at lest her power hmmm" majorika start thinking to herself in the main time doremi tell the customer that they haven't open yet and that this shop sells magical charms the customer then left "majorika lala the customer left" majorika and lala entered the room and flew to the counter "sigh doremi you will have to work in this shop since we will need money to buy more magical spheres for your training" "okay that fine with me but the school and my parents will refuse" "I think it won't be I problem if you are not paid you could say you are helping a friend" "wait a minute I won't get paid! Then why would I work!" "first! You are the one who got me in this mess! Second you won't get paid money your pay will be with magical spheres" "I don't like it" "you don't have to because you want to become a witch and to do so you need to pass the testes and to pass you need to use magic you get what I'm saying?" "yes yes~~ I need magical spheres to do so" " good now take this" majorika nodded to lala who give doremi a bag full with magical spheres doremi's eyes sparkles as she looks at majorika "now at home try to practise the spells" "you mean these boring spells" "don't underestimate those spells doremi they are the basics and you must master them" "okay okay I won't" "good and call me majorika sensei" "yeah yeah majorika" "sensei! Agh! Sigh and doremi" "yes?" "don't let your anger control you" doremi looked at majorika censored face then smiled "I promise!" then she left the rusty broom "majorika?" "lala I have to go to the witch's kingdom to buy stuff and register doremi to the first tire testes" "okay I will look after the shop" "lala" "yes?" "are you scared of doremi?" "well it's kind of scary when some strong loses his or her chill but doremi a nice person I believe she won't harm anyone" "hmm then I will leave the shop at your care".
At the harukaze resident a little girl siting at the couch watching TV as doremi walked by "pop what are you watching! This is not for children!" pointing at the TV display an edgy character holding a sword then suddenly doremi eyes widened "THAT IT!" she then run to her room pop looked at her sister then shrugged.
The next day doremi goes to school as usually but doremi and aiko notice that hazuki looked more depressed when they try to cheer her up only to receive a fake smile or laugh school goes on doremi walking to the rusty broom but all in her mind is how depressed hazuki looked when she entered she didn't notice lala and majorika arguing they looked at her "hey kid if you keep this up you will get possessed" "hmm….!" "yeah doremi you remember dark spirit possess weak will people and depression weaken the will" "majorika lala it just that my friend hazuki she look so sad since yesterday and I don't know what to do to cheer her up" "hmm why don't you go to her home maybe the reason is there" "it's okay majorika. Doremi and I will handle this why don't you go and buy the stuff you said you would buy yesterday!" "well the shops there has some fixing to do it's not my problem" "let's go we don't have time to waste in argument!" doremi shout to majorika and lala.
Doremi majorika and lala flying over misora but it look like they are lost "doremi are we there yet" majorika said "I think that is her house" "you think do you not know where your friend live" "that's not it it just hard to recognise houses when you're up in the sky" doremi said as she plying around seems like she enjoy flying "doremi don't waste time we are going" as they goes near the house doremi asked "how are we going to enter?" "huh? You aren't going to knock at the door?" lala asked "I don't think even if I entered she would tell me the reason of her saddens" doremi's face fell into a frown "then we just turn into animals and this is an opportunity for you to practise" "I can turn my self into animals?" "yes, it easy just enchant your spell and say what animal you want to turn into" "okay I will try".
"Pirika pirilala poporina peperuto! Turn me to a hamster!" doremi turn her ear to a hamster's ear "huh? Nothing change?" "hehe" lala laugh and pointing at her ear "huh!? Haa! My ear!" "doremi you hav- pfft to pfft~ hehe to f-focus" majorika tried to explain but couldn't contain her laughter "ehh stop laughing. I will try again Pirika pirilala poporina peperuto! Turn me to a hamster!" this time her nose get turn "hehe try again doremi" lala said while pointing at her nose after three embarrassing attempts she finally get herself to a hamster she and the smaller than usual majorika and lala who turn herself to a white cat walking around fujiwara's house hold backyard "hmm there is nothing her" doremi said "let's go inside the house we might get better information there" lala suggested "yeah let's go" doremi said then they went inside to their shock the place was a complete mess broken furniture glass shards everywhere painting on the ground flower pot broken and there an old lady and a man who looks like he is in his late twenty or early thirty cleaning the house as hazuki and a women an her late twenty collecting the flowers and move them to another spot "what in the world happened here!" doremi shout in her hamster form "shhh! Kid don't scream!" majorika Scolded doremi in whispers "now we find the reason kid lets go home" "what no way we have to help them…" before doremi could finish the water surrounded her and majorika and pull them to the pond in the backyard "agh! I brree c-can't- breath!" majorika snapped her finger "brewer pant pant? Huh? I can breathe now?" "yes, I cast a spell to help us breath under water" "eeh! Amazing teach to me later" majorika pointed to her left. doremi who followed her finger then saw a small creature with long blue hair her eyes are completely blue except for the horizontal line that resemble a pupil she has white skin with blue scale at the arms and legs it continues to her back she wear a white robe that cover the middle part of her body to the right shoulder "who are you and what are you doing here?!" the creature asked who isn't taller than doremi's hamster form "my name is doremi and that one there is majorika we are here to help my friend hazuki" "you are friend with Ms. Hazuki?" "yeah I'm a witch and turned myself into a hamster to get in and find out what the problem is" "hmm that explant it" "now seren tell me why are you living in this human house" majorika said with a mocking sound "it's a long story".
In the pond a pink hamster a green frog and a small seren siting underwater then out of nowhere a white cat appear behind majorika "eh! Where did you come from!" the blue seren asked as the water move violently "whow! Clam down I'm lala this witch's fairy" "how did you come without me noticing you!" "oh, that because I'm the best fairy in stealth hehe" "stop boosting yourself lala!" "wow lala I didn't even notice you sneaking from behind" doremi said with stars in her eye then said "did you turn yourself invisible" "stop that doremi hehe let's hear what the seren have to say" "well it's start when I get separated from my group do to a storm when I woke up I was injured and lost in a forest days went by and I was hungry lost and wounded until Ms. Fujiwara found me she give me this pond and healed my wound she feed me and I promised her that I would protect and bless her family" "you mean hazuki's mom found you?" "no no I mean her great grandmother it was years ago" majorika give the seren a suspicious look "a grateful seren I don't buy it" "well it doesn't concern you actually it doesn't concern anyone of you leave!" "hazuki is my friend and I'm so worried about her so please help us!" doremi plead to the seren who look deep in her eyes then "sigh~~ you look worried okay I will help but…" she glared at majorika "if this frog do anything the might harm this family I will cook her and feed her to the kappas!" majorika just hmphed then looked at doremi "you really want to help her" "do I really have to answer this" "sigh~~ doremi sigh okay" majorika looked so defeated "so miss seren do you know what's going on here" the seren looked sad "we really don't know it start two day ago when the family woke up they found that every furniture is broken but at night of the first day we start her the sounds of broken glasses but nothing in the house I searched around for any evil spirit that might have done this but none" doremi and lala hold there chin thinking until majorika sighed loudly "it's a curse" "huh! A curse who would do such a thing!" doremi and the seren said in union but lala just said "yeah that make a lot of sense no people no spirit a curse is the only thing but the question…" before lala finishes majorika said "to break the curse we should find the coursed object" "then let's go" before doremi could go majorika stops her "you have to enter the house as human doremi" "what? why!?" "because I have to tech you how to detect this thing" "for real!" doremi eyes sparkles "okay okay lets go" doremi said in excitement.
In front of the fujiwara house hold three figure stand in front of the door doremi lala who is holding the seren and majorika "now doremi listen carefully" majorika start expelling as doremi listing excitingly "there is lots of spell that require concentration like levitation for example you might not notice it but the longer you keep a hold of an object the more it consume energy and this spell is no different you have to focus and move your energy from your wand into your eyes to be able to see auras it doesn't need a physical wording to it but still you can add a word if it helps you. understand" majorika looked at doremi who is nodding like crazy "okay then the plan is you enter the house and fund the coursed object lala and I..." "ahm!" the seren cough loudly "and the seren will watch you from the backyard when you give the signal, I will stop time then we get read of what ever it is got it" "yes!" "now let's start then" lala said doremi take her wand out but before she cast the spell she looked at majorika "umm how am I going to enter the house with my witch dress and my wand they will get suspicious" majorika shakes her head then said "don't worry with casting the spell it will last for an hour with one magical sphere" "oh okay! Pirika pirilala poporina peperuto! Open my eyes!" 'focus in my eyes focus in my eyes! Focus?! …!' as doremi close her eyes one of her three remaining magical spheres shine and then disappear with flash of light as the light reach to doremi's eyes she opens them up it shine lala and the seren looked amazed by it but majorika only mentioned to them to go on with the plan as they fly back to the backyard doremi transformed back and ranged the doorbell.
Ding dong "coming!" an old women's voice can hardly be heard doremi wait as the gate open and the old women who was cleaning the house "who are you?" "ah! I'm doremi hazuki's friend" "young master! Your friend is here" "I'm coming baya!" from behind baya hazuki appear "ah! Doremi! Ah! What are you doing here?" "well obviously I'm worried about you yesterday and this morning you where depress so please tell me what's wrong" doremi plead to hazuki with her shining eyes which in hazuki's view is strange but nonetheless she couldn't deny it any more "sigh~~~ I can't hide it anymore come in and I will tell you on a cup of tea sound good?" "sound great" hazuki step aside to let her friend enter.
Hazuki showed doremi the mess in the house even though she seen it before she still couldn't believe her eyes although this time, she notices small fragment of dark materials here and there 'huh? What are these? I don't think these are the cursed object maybe it's the source of these thing' hazuki then led doremi to a clean room when they set baya bring them tea then left "so that why you where out of it in school?" hazuki just nodded in response "we called the police and they didn't find anything the detective said there where no clue or anything to lead to the cause of it" doremi just humming and looking like she is thinking while scanning the room doremi notice a big aura just behind the door and her eyes widen 'hazuki is here I can't transform …!' because doremi was panicking she got surprised when baya opened the door holding an antique Chinese jar made of clay but it coloured with dark purple doremi then realized that the colour is just the aura emitting from the jar "so doremi what do you think" "well I think someone cursed your house by the way hazuki where did you bring the jar from it looks weird?" doremi said hazuki moved her head to the mentioned jar "my auntie give it to us as gift…." Hazuki then realized doremi's first sentences where then looked at her friend shacking "y-you d-don't th-think that our house i-is hunted d-do you?" doremi looked at majorika who is in the pond visible through the window and nod her head then she looked at her frightened friend and said "no I don't think so… cause I will break it now" as time stops after she finished her first sentence.
Doremi stand up looking at hazuki who didn't react at all realizing that the time stops she smiled "hehe I sounded cool hehe" "don't waste time doremi!" as on que doremi took out her tap then transformed in seconded "pretty witchy doremi Che!" doremi took out her wand "now use the exorcism spell to get the evil out" majorika instruct doremi "majorika! Is there spirit creature inside?" "by the look of it I would say there is at least two to three" "hmmm rrrriiiight…" doremi sounded suspicions then she took a deep breath and hold her wand horizontally and but her right hand above it then she said "Pirika.." "doremi what are you doing?" majorika asked but doremi ignored her "pirilala poporina..." "do not waste your magical spheres" yet again doremi ignored her "peperuto! Blade of spirit world appear!" majorika and lala eyes widen with shock but the seren only smile doremi moved here hand slowly over here wand as two sharp blades appear in both side doremi looked so focused as her hand reach the end she opened her eyes with a big toothy smile "haha! I did it yes!" she raised now her wand-sword up "now let's kick these evil spirits out!" doremi shout "yeah!" the seren backed her up as majorika and lala still in shock "majorika do you think it would work on spirit?" "I don't know lala I don't even know how she comes up with it" doremi point at the jar with her last remining sphere she shout "extercuo!" with same mists as before three spirits shows up in front of doremi then the one in the middle jump to attack doremi like as if she holding a stick doremi slashed it as her wand-sowed pass through easily like cutting a paper the spirit shrinks in pain but immediately disappear with flash of pink light the other two attack doremi simultaneously from both sides before she could recover her focus but they get stopes by two big spheres of water holed by the seren "now doremi finish them" the seren shout "thanks seren Chan!" doremi slashed the last two spirits but it is obvious that she isn't train in sword fight with the last spirit disappearing doremi and the seren high fives then doremi transformed back looking at majorika "ehem! Majorika the fight is over and you didn't do anything again am I going to do all the heavy lifting?" majorika shack her head "shut up I'm a frog and it's hard to maintain a strong spell like this so just be grateful hemph!" majorika than left flowed by lala and before the seren goes to her pond doremi asked "what is your name seren Chan?" "huh? I don't have one yet" "huh? What do you mean by yet?" "you will understand soon doremi. Bay!" as she left time resume and doremi move fast to sit where she was "huh? Doremi did you moved" "huh! Nah must be your imagination" doremi quickly stand up and hold hazuki's hand getting her up to "and I'm sure that your house isn't course and that everything will be okay" she then hug hazuki who hugged her back and after a while of chatting and laughing and for the first time in two days hazuki's laughed like she did before all that.
