Love's Spell

Mouse, MOUSE?!

Akko, being the clumsy girl she is, has turned herself into a mouse. Now, Metamorphe Feciease is a common spell that witches need to know. Doing this spell is simple and one of the most easiests in the books, but Akko... messed up.

"AHHHHHHH! HOW AM I GONNA TURN BACK??!!" Akko, in her mouse form runs in circles as she squeals about her dismay. She has been a mouse for almost 4 hours. Crying to her two roommates and friends, Sucy and Lotte.

"Calm down Akko, I'm sure there's a way to undo it. Though you should have turned back by now." Lotte says in almost a whisper.

"But I have class in 3 minutes! It's gonna take more than just 3 minutes to run all the way there, climb the steps, and not mention brink my workbooks!" Akko stops and stares at the floor. "Unless.."

"Unless what?" Sucy, the mysterious and quiet one, sits up from where she was lying. Akko runs up on the table and sifts through her books.

"I knew it! There it is! Lotte, Sucy, cover for me!" She runs out of the room and hurries towards the Hanbridge residence.

"Ah! Akko! You're gonna skip claaass?!" Lotte's voice slowly fades as Akko finds her solution.

[Akko's POV]

"I have to *huff* get to *huff* Andrew!" Why exactly? Well I made a mistake.. Instead of Metamorphe Feciease, I said Metamorphe Fasiaece. I small simple mistake, but look at me! I heard long ago that when a witch makes a spell casting mistake, there are special actions that can be taken to undo it. One of which, is the bell of the Handbridge. Every family member in the Handbridge family tree owns a wishing bell. A bell that was stolen from a very passionate witch long ago. This bell, split into two, taking hold of the bell's owner and their children.

Soooooo, Andrew should be an owner for one of those bells. All I would have to do is...I forgot..Ill figure it out when I get there! I run out of Luna Nova, being careful not to be caught by any fairy or teacher.

"Aw man! Why did I have to switch to a small mouse!?" After what seemed to be HOURS, I arrive to the Handbridge residence. "I may have missed a few of my classes.. But at least it's the weekend! I scurry through a crack in the wall in enter inside. I'm so sorry Andrew! But this is important! "Andrew, andrew, where are you? Oh!"

"Then can you please tell them that I am not ready for a commitment? I've told them many times myself but they will not take it seriously." commitment? What's going on?

A stern voice comes from behind him, "Son, the Allis' are a prime negotiator to our finances. We cannot just take this request lightly and brush it off." Andrew suddenly stops walking. "Then I guess we'll have to change our negotiator, I've told you and them I don't want an arranged marriage." He walks off, leaving his dad standing shocked.

Way to go Andrew! Don't let anyone stand in the way of your wishes! Wait.. the bell!! Andrew walks into a huge dining room and sits down.

"Lord Andrew, please enjoy."

"Yes, thank you. I've had a long day and I need a meal." Ah! He's eating. Now's my chance! I climb up his pants and onto his shoulder.

I whisper so no one else can hear me. "Andrew!" "HCK!" He starts coughing, making the maids worry. "Lord Andrew!"

"Don't worry! I just have to.. Go to the restroom..." He gets up and leaves the dining room. "What the hell are you doing here?"

"Andrew! I need your help. Where is your wishing bell?" . . . "Wishing Bell? I've never heard of such a thing." I climb to the top of his head "Stop pulling my leg! I need it to change back into my human form!" "Your human form? You can't change back?!" EEP! SCARY!

"..Eh, well you see.. I messed up on a casting spell and need your wishing bell to change back... won't you please let me use it?" He crosses his arms and closes his eyes "Like I said, I've never heard of a wishing bell."

"HNNG! What am I going to do!?!! Do you know how long it took me to get here?! Good thing it's the weekend.."

"Andrew!" Andrew stands up straight and acts stern.
"Yes father?" "Don't forget we have a party to attend on Sunday. As you may know, the Allis' will be there. You may want to reconsider their offer." And just like that he walks off.

"Was that about the arranged marriage?"

"Ha? How do you know about this?" Eh... I was eavesdropping...

"Uhm, well ya know! I kinda.. Overheard..."

"You were eavesdropping?"

"No! I was looking for you when I spotted you talking to your dad about this!" Andrew starts walking towards the door. "C'mon Andrew won't you please let me use your wishing bell? I NEED it!"

"I'm sorry Akko, but you'll need to leave." He opens the door and picks me off his shoulder. Akko? That's the first time he's called me that. Or is it? I can't remember. WAIT...WHAT!!? "YOU'RE MAKING ME LEAVE? I can't leave in this state!! Are you really kicking out a lady in the middle of the night?!" He flinches. haHA! Got him! An aristocrat like him surely has manners right? "Akko...Hng!" he closes the door and sets me on a small table.

"We will drop you off at Luna Nova tomorrow. Just don't cause a commotion."

"Andrew! I know you know about the wishing bell!"

"For the last time, I don't know anything about a wishing bell!"

And with that, he's off...
