The Mysterious Girl (A Magi x Reader fanfic)

Halloween Special

"Hey (y/n)! Sindria is having an event today! Let's go join in!" Kougyoku exclaimed as she burst through my door. I was currently indulging myself in a book that Jafar had recommended to me. It was the 4th book in the series and there was so much more. It was an enticing tale about mages, wizards, and guilds. What really got me was the prologue. It talked about special wizards who learned magic from dragons. They were called 'Dragon Slayers'. I had just gotten to the chapter where the fire dragon slayer and the stripping popsicle were talking about a strong wizard named Erza.

"What is the event about?" I asked as I continued reading only to have the book pulled out of my hands and set on the table in front of me. "Sinbad planned the event. It's where you walk around in pretty costumes and get treats from people in the town and in the castle. We're all going to dress up and go out tonight. So, are you gonna come?" Kougyoku pleaded with her magenta eyes. I sighed. "All right. What do I dress up as?" I asked Kougyoku. "That's the fun part (y/n)! We get to dress up as whatever we want." Kougyoku squealed.

"What are you dressing up as Kougyoku?" I asked her. "I'm going to be a swordswoman. Alibaba promised to help me look 'authentic'." Kougyoku smiled shyly. "I see." I said as I pondered what I should be. "(Y/n)?" I heard Kougyoku say. I looked up at her to see a strange look in her eyes. "Yes Kougyoku?" I asked slightly cautious. "Can I pick your Halloween costume please?" Kougyoku begged. I was slightly surprised when she got on her knees and clung to my leg.

"If you want to princess you can." I sighed. She squealed with delight. "But! I will not wear any sort of dress, and nothing with frills...please." I said. "All right!" Kougyoku said as she dragged me to her room and on her bed, was an outfit all in black along with a strange bottle filled with a clear liquid. "I have the strange feeling that you planned to dress me up in the first place." I inquired as she smiled and squeaked a no. "C'mon. Try on the clothes." Kougyoku said as she shoved me into the bathroom with the clothes. I sighed and put them on.

When I walked out of the bathroom Kougyoku squealed. I was wearing a black crop top and short black shorts. I had black high heels with ribbon that wrapped up to my knee. There were also black, sharp-studded gloves that I wore too. "Now sit here for a moment. While you were in the bathroom Alibaba brought my costume for me. I'm going to go try it on." she said as she went into the bathroom locking the door. I noticed that Kougyoku had prepared tea and there was a note beneath the cup. 'Here (y/n)! This tea is for you. We're going to be celebrating the entire night and I thought you would like a drink before we get started.' it read.

I lifted the glass to my lips but stopped before taking a sip. It smelt rather strange, like a mix of Earl Grey and Osmanthus tea. 'Maybe this was her first time making tea, it would be rude to waste it.' I thought to myself. I took a deep breath before downing the entire cup in case I didn't taste that great. I waited for Kougyoku to walk out of the restroom. I started to feel extremely hot and my body felt a numbing paint. It was numb since I can't really feel pain anymore. My head and back hurt a lot when Kougyoku finally walked out of the bathroom in her costume.

She wore a dress much similar to Morgiana's and had fake short swords at both hips. She wore white flats and her hair in a ponytail. She looked at me and gasped. "It actually worked!" she squeaked. "What?" I asked as the heat and numb pain subsided. She held a mirror in front of my face and I almost screamed. "Kougyoku...did you spike my tea?" I asked her, fists trembling. "Maybe...I'm sorry please don't be mad! I thought you would look really cute!" she said as she bowed low. I sighed and looked in the mirror. I had ears and tail whose color matched my hair.

"Are you mad?" Kougyoku asked. "I was." I said, "But if you give me 1/5 of your treats from tonight, of your choice, I'll forgive you. Deal?" I asked her. "Deal!" she said in a much more chipper voice now that I didn't look like I was about to kill her. "All right! Let's go see the other's costumes!" she said excitedly. "Hurry hurry! The event starts in an hour and I want to see all of them!" Kougyoku said. We walked to the dining hall and Kougyoku dragged me over to her family first.
