( Nikki's Point of View)
My marionette doll, Ally, led me to the old toy store at the end of my street. It hasn't been open for 3 years. The whole thing still looked the same as it did when i was here all those years ago. "At least this place is still the way i remember it," i said.
The door was open and the door handle was freshly polished. Someone has been here recently. I hesitantly opened the door wider and walked inside with Ally. "Daddy is here," she said. She jumped out of my arms and scurried into the darkness of the old toy store. I knew i couldn't catch her so i looked around at the other toys in the store. There were teddy bears, stuffed unicorns, wooden trains and horses, kites, and more dolls like Ally, each with a unique feature. None of the toys were exactly the same. Each teddy bear was a different color and had different features. Each unicorn had different color horns and manes.
I looked at all of the toys in wonder until i realized they were all watching me; waiting for me to do something wrong so they could jump down off the shelves and come to life.
Out of the darkness i saw a pair of yellow glowing eyes. I've seen those eyes somewhere before. It hit me instantly like a ton of bricks. "Mister toy maker?" I asked. "Yes miss Nikki. Its a pleasure to meet you once again." He bowed to me and smiled as a lamp turned on.
The toy maker looked the exact same as he did all those years ago. Blood red hair that stopped at his shoulders, yellow eyes, a red shirt and a coat with fur at the collar. He looked like he hasn't aged in all those years.
"Allow me to fully introduce myself since you have earned the liking of my marionette here," he said,taking a bow. "I am Jason the Toymaker. I have been waiting for the day you would be ready to return to this place." He looked like he wanted to jump for joy but he kept his composure for a little bit longer. "There is one thing i want to ask you before we continue any farther miss Nikki." He came closer and held out his hand to me. "Would you like to become my best friend and become a fellow toy maker?"
I didn't know what to say to him. I had wanted to take care of toys for as long as i can remember. "I don't know what to say, honestly. You're asking me to help you take care of toys?" He nodded at me and he became excited. "The toys love what you did for Ally and they want you to come with me and make more toys and give them to children who don't have any toys.
I understand what he is saying. There are a lot of kids out in the world that don't have toys to play with. I want them to have a best friend to play with as well as someone to take care of. "I'll do it Jason." He finally couldn't take it anymore and jumped for joy snd danced around the store. "SHE SAID YES MY CHILDREN! SHE SAID YES!"
The toys came to life and danced on the floor of the store. The lights came on and everything was alive. The kites were flying, the trains were rolling on their tracks, the airplanes were flying and the other toys were playing with each other.
(Jason's Point of View)
I can't believe she said yes so easily! Maybe she doesn't know what she's in for. At least i have a real friend now to take home with me to meet the pastas. She was watching my store come to life in front of her and she had the most beautiful smile on her face. I would hate to have to destroy that beautiful face if she breaks her promise she never knew she made to me. But i don't think that will happen.
She comes up to me and pulls on my sleeve. "This is amazing, but what happens now that I'm your friend?" I smiled at her and said,"now you get to come home with me and meet my family. Are you okay with that Miss Nikki?" She nodded her approval and i gave her a piggy back ride to the woods.
