DISCLAIMER: I'm not own Ojamajo Doremi. I very like this show, so I decided to make this story. Ojamajo Doremi is a show which made by Toei Animation in 1999-2003.

Author's Note: Sorry, I may have grammatical errors. English and Japanese isn't my first language.

Well, I know that maybe... it's too early to publish this chapter, because it's about Doremi's birthday (still seventh month earlier than my plan), but I'm afraid if in that time, I won't ever have time to publish it (I don't want if this story became discontinued just because of my bustle in my campus).

For the review:

Momoko T. Kitsunee: Well, since I just watch some episodes of the series, I don't know too much about the vacation in Japan. In this chapter, I just want to tell about Dira's birthday, but I don't have idea to describe about the party (-_-') gomen.

Ojamajo Doremi-Poppu Heart-Star

Chapter 18 – The Poison Rose and the Golden Rose

Saturday, 30 July, at 12.00 AM.

Kotake sent a message by his phone cell to Doremi.

When Doremi heard that her phone cell rang, she yelled, "Oh no! The alarm! The alarm! I must wake up!"

But when she knew if it was Saturday, in the summer vacation, and her phone cell just rang because of a message, she sighed, "Huh, I think..."

She opened the message and read it.

"Doremi, otanjoubi omedetou. I wish you all the best. Can we walk around this morning? I'll pick up you in your house this morning at 07.00 AM. I want to make you happy in your birthday this year."

"Uh, Kotake. You're the first one who said it today." said Doremi, "I wonder what you will do to make me happy?"

"I think I feel the love in the air in this room." Dodo said, "Well, Doremi-chan, otanjoubi omedetou!"

"Dodo, arigatou."

"Hmm, you must be wonder, what will you get in your birthday today, right?"

"Well, you're right, Dodo, but I think, I don't need to think about it too much." Doremi said, "If they don't give me anything, that's okay. Daijoubu yo. I just want to be together with all people that I love. That's enough to make me happy."

Then, she yawned and added, "Okay, I think, it doesn't wrong if I sleep again until 05.00 AM."

"Are you sure, you just need 2 hours to prepare yourself for the date?" asked Dodo.

"I'm sure, Dodo. 5 hours from now, I'll wake up." Doremi said.

06.00 AM.

Kotake departed from his house to Doremi's house.

He knew that he could depart at 06.30 AM if he wanted, but he intentionally departed at 06.00 AM. He wanted to buy a special gift for Doremi.

'Demo... what will I buy for her? Birthday's greeting card? Uh, no. I've already sent a message to her. A box of chocolate? No no no. I think it isn't a good idea. Jewelry? Impossible. I can't. It's too expensive. I don't have enough money.' Kotake thought, still didn't have any idea about the gift.

Suddenly, a girl came to him with some stalk of pink Roses. She asked him to buy the roses.

'Hey, that's a good idea! She likes pink, and also, she likes Rose, and... It's so cheap!' he thought, and then said to the girl, "I buy a stalk."

He took the Rose, "Hmm, there isn't any thorn at this flower."

The girl smiled and said, "It's special for express the love. I swear no thorn at the Roses that can disturb the love atmosphere."

"Hey, from where do you know if I want to give it to my girlfriend?"

"Mochiron yo, I can know about it. Pink is a love color, and Rose is a love flower."

"Uh, okay. Thanks for your suggestion." Kotake said, then continued his 'trip' to Doremi's house.

After he went, the girl changed her form to be her original form, and she was... Majowarui!

She laughed wilier than before, "No thorn can disturb the love atmosphere, but there's a thorn which can make your girlfriend get my revenge, and nobody can avoid the Poison Rose."

She hold her crystal ball, and saw that Kotake arrived in Doremi's house.

He arrived when Pop walked out from the house, wanted to go to Maho base camp. Kotake hid the Rose when he met Pop at the porch.

"Hi, Poppu. Where will you go?"

"Uh, I want to meet my friends. We want to spend the summer vacation together."

"Do you remember about Doremi's birthday?"

"Mochiron yo. She's my older sister, after all," Pop said, "and I know that you want to go with her today, but I think... you come too early. She's still in her room. Okaasan and otousan are shopping for the dinner. Any question?"

"No. You can go now."

"Okay, bye bye!"

"Bye bye!"

Then, Pop went, and Kotake walked into the house, to the living room. Dodo saw him from the stairs, and then she flew up into Doremi's room.

"Doremi-chan, Kotake is here." Dodo said, "He's waiting for you in the living room."

"Hontou ni?" said Doremi, "It's still 06.55 AM. I think he'll come five minutes later."

"Whatever, but don't make him wait for you so long. Today is a special day. Not only for you, but also for him."

"Uh, okay." Doremi sighed, "I can't believe that you can become more mature than before now. Sore jaa, ittekuru ne?"

"Ittereshai."

Then, after she finished preparing herself, Doremi walked out from her room. She went downstairs, to the living room, where Kotake was still waiting for her.

"Uh, are you here since a long time?" she asked.

"No. Just five minutes. It isn't long." Kotake said, "Well, let me give you something before we go."

"What is it?"

"Here." Kotake gave the stalk of the Rose to her.

"Wow. Suteki ga. Arigatou." Doremi took the Rose.

Meanwhile, Majowarui flicked her fingers, make a thorn appeared from the stalk and pricked Doremi's right index finger, "Ouch!"

She saw the stalk.

'A thorn? But... I don't see it before.' Doremi thought, 'Uh, doushite? Why do I feel dizzy like this? Is it... Majowarui?'

"Doushita no? Daijoubu desuka?" asked Kotake. He saw the thorn, "Chotto! A thorn? But... it wasn't there before..."

"Ugh, I... I think... it's a Poison Rose... uh..."

"Doremi!"

Kotake caught Doremi before she fell, but then she fainted. He called her, but no respond.

Nobody beside them in the house (at least, for Kotake). Dodo was in Doremi's room (and we know that Kotake didn't know about her). Her parents were shopping, and Pop was at Maho base camp.

Kotake carried Doremi and brought her to the hospital.

At Maho base camp, Majowarui told Poppu-tachi and Hazuki-tachi about the Poison Rose, proudly.

Pop frightened, "How dare you are! I'll save my older sister!"

"I don't think so. The Poison Rose is very dangerous. Its poison can make your older sister die!"

"No!" Pop yelled, "She won't die! She won't pass away!"

"Huh, it's better if I celebrate my victory today."

"Urusai! I'm sure, she'll wake up! I'm sure, she won't pass away!"

But Majowarui ignored her and went home.

Pop sighed, "Onee-chan, do-shiyo?"

"Poppu-chan, I think, it's better if we go to the hospital now. Kotake-kun must be bring her there." Hazuki said.

Pop's tears were starting to drop, "I can't see her. I'm not ready. I feel guilty that I went here before it happened. I should be waiting for them, until they go from our house."

"Poppu-chan, don't say it. It's not your fault. Moreover, Doremi-chan needs you beside her now." Aiko said.

"There's Kotake-senpai beside her."

"But he's just her boyfriend. You're her younger sister." Onpu said, "She needs you."

"Well, okay." Pop said while she swept her own tears, "Maybe a miracle will happen if I come there." Pop tried to smile.

Then, they went to the hospital. There, they met Kotake.

Fortunately, before they arrived at the hospital, Kotake sent a message about Doremi to Hazuki, so that he didn't wonder if they came there.

"Kotake-senpai, how about my older sister?" asked Pop.

"Bad. She's in a coma." Kotake said, "Minna, gomen. It's my fault. I bought the Poison Rose. I really don't know if it's a Poison Rose."

"Sou da yo, that's your fault, senpai!" yelled Pop.

"Poppu-chan, Kotake-kun didn't know if it will happen." Momoko said, "Kotake-kun, don't blame yourself. It's not fully your fault."

"Kotake-kun, can we see her now?" asked Hazuki.

"Of course. This way." Kotake said, "I'm here just to waiting for you all."

Then, they went to the ICU room.

There, they saw her. Doremi was still unconscious.

Onpu saw Doremi's necklace. The flag of the note changed its color, from pink to black. She whispered to Hazuki, Aiko, and Momoko while pointed at the necklace, "Minna, mite mite!"

They saw the necklace, and saw the color's changing, with Pop and her friends.

Majowarui told them when she came to Maho base camp that if the note color was completely changing, Doremi would die...

...and Pop wouldn't let it happen.

But she didn't know what she would do to save her beloved older sister.

She thought, 'Hmm, there's just one way to make her wake up: the forbidden magic! But... it has too much risk. Huh, onee-chan, I don't know if Majowarui can be stronger than before. She attacked you in your birthday. Huh, if only I can do something to save you...'

Suddenly, Hana-chan came into the ICU room with her five years old form. She said, "I know, what you all should do to cure her from the poison."

"Hana-chan, don't come here! Dame yo!" Hazuki whispered, "Kotake-kun sees you."

"Daijoubu yo. He's allowed to know about it. About our secret." Hana-chan said, "I know, there's a Golden Rose to cure her, but before that, let me tell him about our secret."

Author's Note: Then, why Hana-chan said it? Find out the reason in the next chapter.
