"Aww...you don't have to be so uptight Watanuki. Can't we have a little snack before dinner?" the woman pouted.
"No! You're gonna lose your appetite if you do and that will ruin my efforts on making such a delicious dinner and..." suddenly hs voice calmed down.
The four of them stopped at what they were doing and looked at the door. They all felt another presence in their place. The woman put down her sake glass on top of the table and smiled.
"It seems that we have a customer."
When voices calmed down, the two girls grabbed the door holes and Happy and Natsu prepared themselves to see what was lying behind the door. The girls then opened the door but all they saw was an empty Japanese designed couch. Then a tall, slim woman came out from the kitchen. She had a long black hair ,which extended past down her behind, and straight bangs. She had crimson eyes and wore a red flower patterned kimono with a huge yellow ribbon obi infront of her stomach to match her eyes.
"Welcome." she said.
"I'm sorry. I ended up in your store even though I wanted to leave but my legs suddenly moved on their own and... " Natsu explained. He was surprised at was not what he planned on saying yet he said it anyway. He felt a tremoundous power inside the shop. A power which cannot be measured by sheer strength. It was different from their powers and somehow even the dragon slayer was mesmerized by it.
"No need to explain." she said in a casual tone as though this event was somehow normal to them. "You're here because you have a wish that needs to be granted."
"A wish?"
The woman smiled and walked across the room. She opened another door that led to another room. "Come. This is no place to talk. We can resume talking here." she said as she went inside the room with only a table and two chairs inside. "Watanuki," she called and a tall slim young man came out from the kitchen with the black rabbit on his shoulder. He was wearing a pair of glasses above his yellow and blue eyes and a black uniform underneath his white apron. "Make sure you prepare enough food for our customers. Moru and Maru will help you."
"Hai, Yuuko-san."
The girls left Natsu's side and ran towards the young lad. The young lad went back to the kitchen and the girls happily followed him while singing. "Watanuki! Watanuki! Make more food!"
The dragon slayer and the exceed went inside the room where the woman was. He grabbed and pulled back the chair and sat on it. Happy sat on top of the table and the two faced the red eyed woman.
"So, your names would be...?"
"Natsu. Natsu Dragneel." the mage introduced. "And this here is Happy." he pointed at the cat.
"Aye!"
"So Natsu and Happy it is." then she suddenly giggled. "Such a foolish boy, giving your complete name to a complete stranger."
"But you asked our names."
"So I did. Asking for one's name is a good way of starting a conversation but then again giving it to other people makes that person have control over your soul."
"Natsu, she's scary." Happy whispered.
"Huh? I don't get what your saying." Natsu replied to the woman. Obviously, he was a bit too dense to understand such a thing.
"Do you want to know what my name is?"
"Not really."
"Yuuko Ichihara."
"And so she tells me." he side commented.
"And I see you've met my adorable little helpers." she said pertaining to the two girls, the boy and the black rabbit. Suddenly a knock disturbed the conversation.
"Yuuko-san. Dinner's ready."
"Yes. Come in then."
The boy with glasses entered the room with a tray of food and behind him were the two girls with trays on their hands. Then another young man with the black rabbit on his shoulder stood behind them. The young lad with glasses prepared the tea for the three while the two girls set the food on the table. The other young man just stood by the door and waited.
"Hey you! Why don't you make youself useful for once and help us!" the young lad yelled at his friend while pouring the tea on the cup.
"It's spilling." he said.
"Watanuki, tea's spilling." the rabbit spoke.
The young lad shrieked and quickly stopped pouring the tea. He took a wash cloth and cleaned up the tea that spilled on the table. The woman smiled and raised her hand.
"This clumsy young boy is Watanuki." she said pertaining to the young lad with glasses.
"Don't call me clumsy!" he protested.
"And this is Moro," she said as the blue haired girl kissed her cheek "and Maru." the pink haired girl then kissed her cheek. "But their full names are Morodashi and Marudashi. Aren't they adorable?" she cheerfully said as she patted their heads.
"Yay! Morodashi and Marudashi!" the two sang as they danced together like children.
"The guy over at the door is Doumeki and Mokona."
Happy and Natsu squinted their eyes at the strange looking creature. The black looking rabbit had its eyes closed and its curly lips. Then a blue gem was attached on its forehead.
"What is he?" Happy asked.
"Mokona is Mokona!" the rabbit answered, freaking out the two.
"Natsu! They stuffed toy talked!"
"Mokona is no stuffed toy! Mokona is mokona." it insisted.
"Now that you know our names, I think it's about time we talked about that wish of yours."
The four of them left the room and closed the door. They went back to the kitchen for a while but after doing so, they went back at the room and decided to eavesdrop on Yuuko and Natsu.
"A wish huh?" Natsu repeated.
"Yes. This is a shop that specializes in granting wishes and I have the power to grant those wishes. I am known as the dimensional witch."
Natsu scrambled up some thoughts in his head while he was eating. He was thinking of something he could wish for like maybe being able to beat Erza or Laxus in a battle. Or maybe beat Gray and Gajeel up for good. Or maybe make Lucy allow him to read her novel. On the other hand, Happy was thinking of asking the witch on making Charle and him an official couple also he was thinking of an unlimited supply of fish. While they were thinking, Natsu suddenly remembered the main reason why went inside the shop the first place.
"Can I ask you a question? What did you do to our old guild?" Natsu asked. "This place...this is where our old guild used to stand 7 years ago. What did you do?"
The woman simply smiled. "I did nothing to the old guild of yours. As I have told you, this place is where we grant wishes. Only those people who have a strong desire are able to see this place and those who don't, well they won't be able to see this place but rather they see the old guild you speak of. This place you entered is another dimension different from yours yet it is interrelated with ours. That is why you are here."
Natsu stopped to think for , he couldn't understand what she was saying yet she continued to explain.
"The world even though it's very small, to those who understand it… is quite large. This world… before you fully understand it, there isn't only one."
"So you mean to say, the old guild is still here but we can't see it because there is a wish that we would like you to grant. If we make a wish and you grant it, you guys will be back to your own world and the guild will be back right?"
Watanuki was surprised at what he heard. The dragon slayer got the correct idea though Watanuki knew he was pretty dense. Yuuko nodded and she brought her glass to drink sake.
Happy had finished eating his share of dinner, steamed fish. On the other hand, Natsu's dinner, a bowl of miso soup and Yakiniku, was half finished which was very unlikely of him. Usually he chow down and grab everything he could and put it inside his mouth. But this time he had barely touched his food. Either he didn't like Watanuki's cooking or he is deep in thought and if Lucy was there with him, she would've bet that he didn't like Watanuki's cooking.
"I figured what I wanted to wish." Natsu finally spoke. Yuuko put her glass down and open her seductive red eyes to meet Natsu's brown ones. She leaned forward and smiled. "I want to see Igneel again."
Be careful of what you wish for Natsu hahaha XD especially when you want your wish to be granted by Yuuko XD
Anyway, that's pretty much it. I'll update again after some time.
Thanks for reading :)
