Indigo the Witch Episode #01 - Community Service
Written by: CS-Masyet
A 10 year-old boy named Sharp is on his summer break like everyone else. But unlike everyone else, Sharp is spending it helping needy people instead of playing with his friends. But you don't always get what you want all the time, even if it's helpful...Sharp: Okay mom, I'm leaving!
Mom: You remember where the house is, right?
Sharp: Yeah, of course! See you later! Leaves his house and goes to a man's house to help him with something. Sharp knocks on the door. Um, hello? (I hope this is the right house...)
Man: Comes out of the house. You are Sharp, correct?
Sharp: Yes, that's right.
Man: Oh good, you got here just in time. Here you go. This will explain what you have to do. Gives him an envelope.
Sharp: Huh?
Man: That is all. You may go now.
Sharp: B-but wai-...
Man: Goes back inside his house.
Sharp: Doesn't he want me to do something inside...? Maybe I should read the envelope... Opens the envelope. A letter? Reads the letter:
"Dear Sharp,
Please take care of my daughter. She has just finished her training so she does not know her limitations. I hope she gets better behavior with your help.
- Indigo's Father
P.S. DO NOT let her read this letter."
Sharp: Take care of his daughter? That's not what I had in mind... Where is she anyway? And what does "training" mean? Maybe I should go ask the man... Looks back to ask him, but the house is gone. W-what? Where the heck did his house go?!?
?1: Drives up to him. Hey, Sharp! Did you finish? Do you want a ride home?
Sharp: Oh, hey Dad! (Wait, why is he here already?) Checks his watch. (17:00?!? Why is it already so late?!?)
Dad: What's wrong?
Sharp: Oh, n-nothing... I'll go home with you. Gets in the car.
Dad: So, what did you do today?
Sharp: U-um, nothing really...
Dad: Oh...?
Sharp: (How am I supposed to explain what happened...?) Gets home, eats dinner, and goes to bed. (Today was such a weird day... Time speeding up, and the disappearing house... This has got to be all a dream...) Yeah, that's it! This is all a dream! That makes se-... Hears a crash outside. What the heck was that?!? Goes outside. He sees a strange-dressed girl laying on a fallen garbage can.
?2: Ow, that hurt...
Sharp: What are you doing? And why are you dressed like that...?
?2: Huh? Gets up. Oops, I knocked over this garbage can...
Sharp: Answer my question!
?2: I'm Indigo! You're Sharp, right?
Sharp: How do you know my name? Wait, Indigo...
Indigo: My father told me to come here. Although I came a little late...
Sharp: A little? It's almost midnight!
Indigo: I remembered I had to come here at the last minute, so I flew here as fast as I could... I ended going a little too fast, and ended up crashing into the trash can... Sorry about that...
Sharp: Huh? Flew?
Indigo: Yeah, of course! Flying is a basic skill for a witch!
Sharp: A witch? You're telling me you're a witch?
Indigo: Yes, of course! Can't you see the way I'm dressed?
Sharp: Oh, I see! You're a cosplayer, right?
Indigo: W-what; cosplayer?!? I'm telling you, I really am a witch!
Sharp: Yeah, sure...
Indigo: ...oh that's right; father told me that there aren't any witches in this world...
Sharp: Enough with the whole witch thing; it's annoying. You're just embarassing yourself!
Indigo: Fine, if you don't believe me, then I'll prove it! See that trash on the ground?
Sharp: Yeah...?
Indigo: Well, it won't be there anymore! Takes out her wand. Magic Blast! Shoots a blast of magic at the trash, making it disappear.
Sharp (shocked): W-what the?!?
Indigo: So, you believe me now?
Sharp: Yep, I really am dreaming...
Indigo: Pinches Sharp's arm.
Sharp: Ow! What was that for?
Indigo: You're not dreaming! And I just proved it!
Sharp: Yeah, thanks... Rubs his arm.
Indigo: Hey, wait a sec... How come you don't know I'm a witch? Didn't my father talk about my training in the letter?
Sharp: (Oh, so that's what he meant by training...)
Indigo: You read the letter, right?
Sharp: Of course I did! But he didn't say what kind of training it was...
Indigo: Really? My father said you would know...
Sharp: Well, it's getting late. I'd better get to bed...
Indigo: What about me?
Sharp: You're going to sleep dressed like that?
Indigo: Of course not! Uses her magic to change into her pajamas. Ta-dah!
Sharp: (That's going to take a while to get used to...)
Sharp/Indigo: Go to Sharp's room.
Sharp: I guess you can stay in here for now. But where are you going to sleep...?
Indigo: Don't worry, I have magic!
Sharp: Eh?
Indigo: Makes a sleeping bag. There we go! Good night! Gets in the sleeping bag and sleeps.
Sharp: *sigh* Gets in bed. (Why did this have to happen to me...?)
Sharp falls asleep. What kind of day will he have tomorrow? Find out next episode!
