NerfGuy Sporkings: Ojamajo Party part 1

Ojamajo Party~!

No one was invited. Or maybe they were and no one could make heads or tails from the lackluster writing style.

Chapter 1: Get Small!

And get out!

(Here is our opening!

An opening? Really? For this short of a work? THIS ISN’T AN ANIME SERIES, MEGAN! IT’S A WRITTEN WORK! THEY’RE TWO VERY DIFFERENT THINGS! Seriously, those are iffy even for longer stories, and even then you CANNOT use copyrighted lyrics. At least, not without risking a lawsuit. Either way, this opening is on every chapter, so after this one I’m simply going to skip it.

'Another Small Adventure' Special MegChan version!)

What? What. On. EARTH?! Okay, seriously, this! This is low! *reads ahead* Really low! She just copied the lyrics word for word and calls it her “Special MegChan version.” For goodness sake, Megan! That’s plagiarism! You don’t copy lyrics and then call it YOUR special version!

I guess one reason she’s calling it as such is because she’s “singing” it herself. THAT DOESN’T EVEN REMOTELY QUALIFY!! In any case, I’m not using the lyrics either, but the “footage” stays.

(Footage: We open up to Megan sitting on a hill with Brittany. The camera swings behind them to a star filled sky and the Ojamajo Party logo appears)

Logo? What logo?! Oh, the one you neglected to draw? Seriously, we don’t even know what it even looks like. Why mention it at all?

(Footage: Five shooting stars fly across the sky. All the Ojamajos look up at this phenomenon. A bright light flies towards Megan and Brittany, enveloping the screen in white.)

Again, this is why you don’t make openings for fanfics. We’re not looking at a tv screen. We’re looking at a computer screen and reading something. There is no visual representation at all other than the reader’s imagination, and even that won’t cut it for everyone.

(Footage: Megan and the Ojamajos are all walking together, arm-in-arm, through the streets of Misora. The camera zooms out to reveal they are actually tiny! Probably about the size of mice.)

And here we have some blatant “story-revolves-around-author-avatar” bull. Seriously, Megan’s the only one being mentioned by name! And even then, she’s being mentioned first! Seriously, Megan? Seriously?!

(Footage: The camera spins around them and then we see Majo Ruka and her citadel of doom as she laughs like a maniac. We cut to Megan with a determined smile, then she and the Ojamajos throw their fists into the air.)

And we have even more spotlight stealing. We get it, Megan! Your OC is the central heroine of this fic. You don’t need to shove it down our throats!

(Footage: Jou-Sama stands center screen as Majorin and Amelia spin in to scene like the Sharp Magical Stage. When they meet in the middle, they bow to Jou-Sama like the Motto Magical Stage. Jou-Sama raises her hand to the sky and a big star appears. Then Doremi jumps up, happy as can be.)

How creative. Recycling a few scenes from canon and- wait! Who on EARTH IS AMELIA!? At least the canon main character is getting a spotlight, right?

(Footage: In a four way split screen effect, we see the Ojamajos taking on the bosses! In the top left corner, Momoko and Aiko take on the Piranah Plant. Bottom left corner, Onpu and Hazuki tackle Hammer Bro. Top right corner, Brittany casts a spell on Dry Bones. Bottom right corner, Hana flies on a book and shoots ink balls at Majo Isabelle.)

Keep this “footage” in mind for later chapters, people. Keep. It. In. Mind. In any case, she’s not even being original. She’s already directly ripping off and outright USING the first three Mario Party DS bosses themselves.

(Footage: Megan jumps around the five Party boards, collecting the sky crystals as she goes. Brittany flies in on her broom and holds out her hand to Megan)

Yeah, Mario Party DS only ever HAD 5 party boards. Just wait and see how many changes she makes. If she makes any changes.

(Footage: Megan grabs Brittany's hand and throws herself into the sky. On the left side of the screen, we see Majo Ruka and Majo Isabelle. Right side, we see all the tiny Ojamajos. Megan is center screen with a pumped-up pose. As the song ends, the image freezes on screen.)

They all froze to death and its Megan’s fault. The end.

"Sometimes in order to think big, you need to think small."- Unknown.

And thus gives us the supposedly major theme of this story.

Summary: Megan discovers a Sky Crystal.

It vanished into the sky before she could do anything with it.

Coincidentally, Majo Ruka invites the Ojamajos to her place. But it's a trap!

Admiral Ackbar gave them lessons.

She steals Megan's Sky Crystal, shrinks our heroines and sends them out into a big world! Only one can be the Superstar!

Um, why? Didn’t the opening imply otherwise?

Note 1: I only own my OC's that show up. I do not own Ojamajo Doremi, Mario, or Treasure Planet. All the Ojamajo Characters belong to Toei Animation and to all who license it in their country. US does not count, people!

And the obligatory take that to the 4kids dub.

Mario and Mario Party belong to Nintendo. Captain Amelia and anything that pertains to Treasure Planet belong to Disney, the Walt Disney Animation Studios, and Walt Disney Enterprises.

Oh, THAT Amelia! Seriously, why are you adding her in there? SHE’S WAY OUT OF CONTEXT!

Note 2: Now, just because Captain Amelia is a Disney character, this story isn't exactly a crossover.

Actually it is. You’re clearly involving Mario characters and settings while replacing the main playable characters, as well as the Big Bad and his Dragon, with Ojamajo Doremi characters and Ojamajo Doremi-related OCs. That is STILL a crossover.

Since there's only one Disney Character in the story, I see no reason to make it a crossover. Plus, in a later chapter, we'll get to hear from one of Megan's pets, don't worry, explaination will come later!

Pets? Oh, we’re going to have a field day when that one comes around!

AHA! I said all my disclaimers, and now you can't get me for that. (*Manical Laughter*) I'm so crazy, right?

Actually, a disclaimer in NO WAY grants permission to infringe. In fact, ffn handles ALL disclaimers that have to do with canon anyway, so slapping them on a fic is pointless. The only time when a disclaimer is needed is when you’re using someone else’s fanmade material, and even then you still have to have permission.

Also, what on EARTH is "manical" laughter?

Etto, I hope you guys enjoy. Please be sure to read, review and no bad comments unless you can't help yourself.

“Unless you can’t help yourself” hmm? Here’s one: PUT SOME EFFORT INTO BEING ORIGINAL, FOR GOODNESS SAKE!

Also, return of the Random Japanese. Every time she writes a fic, she can’t help but insert Random Japanese into the story, even if the characters speaking it don’t normally speak it. I’ll have more on that later.

I was inspired by my Mario Party DS game and I decided to make a story out of it. And voila!

There is a fine line between “being inspired” and copying, Megan. Guess what you just crossed.

It's a crystal clear night in Misora. Stars are shining, not a cloud to be seen.

Isn’t that the actual definition of “crystal clear night?”

Not that you can see clouds at night, but still.

Oh, trust me on this, clouds CAN be seen at night. In fact, I’ve seen a night that was cloudy, and it was surprisingly bright despite being too far from town.

Also, who is this “you” the narrative referring to? The reader? Seriously, don’t reference the reader via the narrative. That’s second person narrative and REALLY not good writing.

Seventeen year old Megan and her very best friend, seventeen year old Brittany are seen lying down on a grassy hill beneath a tree. (For all intents and purposes, I am not allowed to give out my human name.)

This coming from the girl who routinely gives away case sensitive information. Seriously, what was the point in that?

For the record, THIS is what Megan’s OC self looks like. And THIS is what Brittany’s OC self looks like. Yes, Megan drew both characters, and both are based off of real people.

Megan took in a breath and said, "On the clearest of nights when the winds of the Etherium were calm and peaceful..."

"Meg-Chan, please. Not again." Brittany groaned.

My thoughts exactly.

"What?"

"You've practically memorized the whole movie, plus you're just excited that Nekomimi-Sama's coming to visit tomorrow." Brittany said, matter-of-factly.

Nekomimi-WHAT?!

Random Japanese: 3. And yes, I’m counting both the word and honorific as two separate hits.

'Nekomimi-Sama' was the nickname given to a character named Captain Amelia.

WHY?! Amelia ISN’T part of Ojamajo Doremi! Or any anime for that matter!

In a bizarre twist of events, Hana had used magic to transport herself and the Ojamajos, excluding Megan and Brittany, to the world of Megan's favorite Disney movie: Treasure Planet. To make a long story short: The Ojamajos sort of formed a type of bond with a few of the TP characters, plus Majorin formed a friendship with Amelia and Jou-Sama, somehow, learned to be more assertive...

This is a reference to a fic that Megan never uploaded (or possibly wrote) called “Ojamajo Planet Dokkan”. And…since when was her majesty the pushover type? Canon doesn’t establish her as that!

The reason Amelia is called 'Nekomimi-Sama' is because Amelia is a sort of feline alien. Although her species is never exactly revealed in the TP movie, members of her fanbase have determined Amelia to be a creature called a 'Felinid.'

Random Japanese: 7.

Than what does that make her husband? He’s a dog alien, and the two of them have female cat children and male dog children.

Also, why are you putting fandom-based trivia into a fic, let alone the narrative?! That is seriously unnecessary, regardless.

"Oh so what if I am?" Megan said. "Meg-Chan Nekomimi-Sama daisuki!" (Possible Translation: Meg-Chan loves Catears-Sama.)

That doesn’t mean it doesn’t make any sense.

Random Japanese: 11

"That's what worries me sometimes." Brittany said. "You might be worse than Hana-Chan."

And here we have the main OC heroine being compared to a canon in terms of personality. How original.

"Am not! Hana-Chan's the one who's been glomping on her and saying 'Kawaii Nekomimi-Chan'!"

Megan and Brittany had met Amelia a few times. Exactly how they met the first time is still shrouded in mystery.

In other words, you’re too lazy write it out.

"Hana-Chan doesn't call the Captain 'Nekomimi-Chan' anymore." Brittany stated.

"Yeah, I know, but still... It'll be nice to see Nekomimi-Sama again." Megan sighed. "Not that it isn't fun to watch her movie anymore! I still feel a rush when I watch it." (Between you guys and me, I watch Treasure Planet every week and it never gets old!)

Did we really need to know random tidbits of your personal life? Also, cut it with the internal notes. They get in the way of actually reading the work.

Random Japanese: 16

"I still feel the rush from the launch scene." Brittany said. She shuddered at the thought of Amelia's ship taking off into space.

Megan yawned, "Well, we should head home now..." She and Brittany stood up.

You two should’ve been home hours ago. Seriously, aren’t your parents worri-HOLD UP! “Ojamajo Princess” and what Megan’s profile says establishes that both and another friend of theirs chose to stay in this world over their home. YOU ABANDONED YOUR LOVING FAMILY FOR A CHANCE TO USE MAGIC FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE! EVEN THOUGH THE CANON OJAMAJOS DECIDED AGAINST THAT BECAUSE IT WOULD MEAN SAYING GOODBYE TO THEIR FRIENDS AND LOVED ONES!!

And no, a mere locket with great power does NOT make you the princess of the Witch World. That honor technically belongs to Hana, though it’s still up in the air if Witches even practice royalty the way we do. Anyway, Hana (or possibly Yume, though this was written before Yume was revealed) is next in line, not you. End of discussion.

"Eh?" Brittany looked up at the sky. "Meg-Chan mite!"

"Huh?" Megan looked up. "Oh!"

Up in the sky were five shooting stars.

"Sugoi!"

(Megan) “I’ve never seen those since I abandoned my family!”

(Brittany) “Me too!”

Random Japanese: 19

"M-Meg-Chan, is it just me or is that star coming towards us?" Brittany asked, sort of nervously.

"I-I think it is." Megan said. "Oh my God, it-it's gonna crash! And in front of us too!"

It veered right into the two OCs at the last minute. Both were found lying in the crater with scrapes and lethal brain damage. The end.

They both squealed in fright as they hid behind the nearby tree. They heard something fall on the ground. It sounded like a marble being dropped onto a carpet. Brittany and Megan poked their heads out from behind the tree. What they found was a glowing jewel.

And it was highly radioactive. Touching it would eventually lead to severe radiation poisoning.

"Wh-What is it?" Brittany asked.

"I... I don't know." Megan said. She picked up the jewel. "But I'll bet you anything Jou-Sama would know."

Which is accurate. In canon, she is established to know many things that most people would have no idea about. At least Megan keeps THAT part of her character in.

"Right. Let's ask her tomorrow."

The next day, Megan and Brittany dashed as fast as they could to Maho Dou.

Megan herself has actually uploaded two photos of herself. Look at them and guess how fast she can dash.

"Mou, Bri-Chan, hayaku!" Megan yelled.

"I'm comin', I'm comin'!" Brittany yelled back.

They bursted through the entrance of the magic shop.

This blandness is reminding me of Xantrax’s “writing” style. …okay, I take that back. NEVER NEGATIVELY COMPARE SOMEONE’S WRITING TO XANTRAX-42’S UNLESS YOU REALLY WANT TO INSULT THEM! In this case, even Megan doesn’t deserve to be compared to that fuckwad…

We can contrast it positively to his writing, however…

Also, “bursted” really isn’t much of a word. According to my spell check, the word should be “burst” instead. Get a beta, Megan!

"Sorry we're late!" Megan greeted.

"Hi... Everybody." Brittany said, panting.

"Meg-Chan to Bri-Chan da!" Hana exclaimed.

"Ohayou!" The others greeted.

"Daijoubu, Meg-Chan." Onpu said. "You guys aren't late. Jou-Sama-Tachi haven't arrived yet."

"Eh? Sona." Megan said. "We have something important to show Jou-Sama. It can't wait!"

Random Japanese: 29

"What can't wait, Megan?" A voice asked. It sounded female and British. The girls turned to the entrance to find Jou-Sama, Majorin and a humanoid feline in a Captain's uniform. "Hello all."

Okay, WHAT?! Why is the Queen and her right hand Witch in the shop and NOT in the Castle attending to royal duties?! Why?!

This is pure negligence right here. The Queen doesn’t drop in to the shop, no matter how important it all is! Not only that, but Megan also neglected to send word to her and arrange a meeting. The Queen doesn’t babysit Megan, either!

Canon itself may not explain how the Queen keeps things running despite spending a lot of time disguised as Yuki, but this is simply ridiculous.

"Wua! Nekomimi-Sama da!" Hana squealed.

"Long time no see, Senchö Amelia-Sama!" The others said. (Senchö = Captain)

We don’t need translations for some of the random Japanese you’re throwing around, Megan!

Random Japanese: 35

"Hue! Nekomimi-Sama!" Megan exclaimed. She ran up and threw her arms around the felinid captain. "Oh I missed you so much!"

"Umm, Megan? Megan! I can't breathe!" Amelia said, through a laugh.

Megan broke off the hug. She hit her head in a silly manner and stuck out her tongue. "Gomen ne, Nekomimi-Sama. I was just so excited to hear you were visiting."

And when was this? No one ever said Amelia was visiting! Sheez! Plan things out, for goodness sake!

Random Japanese: 41

"I think Meg-Chan was more excited than Hana-Chan." Momoko said.

"Meg-Chan, how come you get to hug Nekomimi-Sama first?" Hana pouted.

"Come here, Miss Hana-Chan. You know I missed you as well." Amelia said.

Hana jumped into her arms. "Hana-Chan Nekomimi-Sama hountou wa daisuki." (Possible translation: Hana-Chan really loves Catears-Sama.)

Why don’t ya translate everything, why don’t ya?

"Easy there, Hana-Chan." Brittany said. "If you hug her any harder, the Captain's kitty ears might pop off."

"Daijoubu, Brittany-Chan. Hana-Chan daisuki-Nya." Amelia said, attempting a spot of Japanese. (Possible Translation: It's all right, Brittany-Chan. I love Hana-Chan-Meow.)

Random Japanese: 54. For all intents and purposes, I’m not counting “Hana-chan” as a hit whatsoever.

For crying out loud, Amelia HAS NO VERBAL TIC! And no, any Japanese dubs of Treasure Planet DO NO COUNT! Also, remember what I said about characters who normally don’t speak Japanese? Sheez…

"Sugoi, Senchö-Sama!" Hazuki said. "Your Japanese has been improving since we last saw you."

Well that explains it. Amelia, Jim, Dopplar, and the other main characters of Treasure Planet wouldn’t know Japanese, and the Ojamajos only know a little bit of English…though Momoko is fluent in both.

Still, that’s an excuse to have Amelia speak Japanese all of a sudden.

Random Japanese: 57

"Well, I had a little help with that." Amelia pointed at Majorin.

"Ii desu yo!" Majorin laughed, putting her hand behind her head. (Translation: No problem!) "Really, Amelia-Chan. It was nothing!" I'd like to take this time to point out that Majorin is the only one who calls Amelia with 'Chan.'

Really now? In the middle of a paragraph? Really?! WHY?!

"Demo ne, Hana-Chan was the one who taught Nekomimi-Sama how to say 'Nya'!" Hana said.

And that causes Amelia to make that into a verbal tic HOW?!

"Right, right!" Doremi nodded. "Senchö-Sama, how is everyone where you live?"

"Senchö-Sama, you know Doremi-Chan is only interested in how Jim-Kun is doing." Aiko said.

"That's not true, Ai-Chan!"

"Doremi-Chan kinda has a fickle taste in boys." Megan said. Onpu let out a little giggle. Doremi blushed.

“Fickle?” Do you even know what “fickle” means, Megan? Seriously, Doremi was only boy crazy in the first two seasons. This fic, and the events that led to the OD/TP x-over BOTH TAKE PLACE IN DOKKAN. Doremi is NOT boy crazy anymore!

Random Japanese: 71

"Oh, well, everyone is doing great, girls." Amelia said.

"Good to know, Nekomimi-Sama." Momoko said.

"Now that everyone has gotten a chance to get reacquainted," Jou-Sama spoke up, "Megan-Chan, I believe you had something important to show me, right?"

"Ahh souka!" Megan said. "I almost forgot in all the excitement. Did you guys see those shooting stars last night?"

"They were so pretty!" Onpu said.

(Onpu) “It was also the first time I saw one!”

"Hana-Chan made a wish on one!" Hana said.

(Hana) “Hana-chan wished we didn’t have to get overshadowed by an OC!”

"Etto... one of those shooting stars landed in front of us." Brittany said.

"What does that mean?" Aiko asked.

"Shooting stars aren't actually stars. They're really meteors that burn up in the atmosphere." Amelia explained.

Thank you, Captain Obvious!

"Umm... Thanks for that astronomy lesson, Captain. I'm pretty sure Inu-Sensei would've told us the same thing. But we're serious." Megan said. "One of the shooting stars landed in front of us... and we found this." She took out the jewel from her pocket.

“Inu-sensei?” Don’t you mean “Dr. Doppler,” Megan?! Seriously, get his name right!

Random Japanese: 78

"Ooh!" Everyone gasped.

"Meg-Chan and I figured you'd know something about this thing, Jou-Sama." Brittany said.

"So what is it anyway?" Megan asked.

"This... Is a rare jewel called a Sky Crystal." Jou-Sama said. "As their name implies, they come from the sky, from space."

Thanks, Queen Obvious. Any relation to Sky Witches? And yes, this fic is part of a canon that really and truly has Sky as an element and Witches who represent it.

"She's right. Even in the vast expanse of the Etherium, it's an extremely rare opportunity to come by one." Amelia said. "Not to mention it's nearly impossible for a Sky Crystal to actually land in front of you."

That’s one reason why Megan is a Mary Sue. Impossibly rare and fortunate events just happen all the time for her.

In fact, a post I found online while searching for any traces of Megan’s Ojamajo Princess fic actually referred to Megan and Brittany as Mary Sues. And from what I remember of it, they did several things that only a Sue could do, with Megan being the worse of them.

Majorin sighed and put her arm around Amelia's shoulder, "Well, Amelia-Chan, when you're friends with witches, you'll find that almost anything is possible." Amelia sweatdropped at that comment.

"Then that means... The other four shooting stars... are also Sky Crystals." Doremi said.

"I guess we gotta find those other Crystals before they fall into the wrong hands." Megan said.

Um, why? It’s not like these Sky Crystals have some great power, right? I mean, all they really do is give access to a minigame and that’s it- oh wait! These were tweaked somewhat, right?

"Idiots!" Came the familiar screech of Majo Rika. "We were supposed to have opened an hour ago!"

"Really rude, Majo Rika." Brittany said.

Technically, she’s in-character. To be fair, the Queen is here, so she would actually have been far calmer, so Majo Rika is, in a way, out-of-character.

"She's right." Majorin nodded. "We have a guest after all." She gestured to Amelia.

"Good day, Miss Rika." Amelia said.

"Oh yes, I forgot Nekomimi was visiting." Majo Rika said calmly.

I guess that works, too.

Random Japanese: 81

"Well, anyway, this message just appeared in Maho Dou's mailbox." Lala said, handing an invitation to Megan.

"Eh?" Megan opened the message. "It's from Majo Ruka!"

"Majo Ruka?!" The others exclaimed.

"It says 'I wish to apologize for being such a horrible jerk to you all. I'm throwing a big party for the Maho Dou Girls.

“Maho Dou Girls?” Um, why? Weren’t they collectively called the “Ojamajos” in canon? Do the freaking research, Megan!

Come over to my place today at 2:00 PM sharp. Majo Ruka'." Megan read the message. "Hmm... I'm not buyin' it. This sounds like a 'Too-Good-To-Be-True' bit. Jou-Sama, she's trying to lure us into a trap."

"Perhaps maybe, Megan-Chan." Jou-Sama said. "But we can assume nothing at this point."

"Majo Ruka? That woman is Majo Rika's rival in magic, correct?" Amelia asked. "She's also Miss Segawa's manager?"

You’re referencing season 1 material and not taking into account her own character development. She stopped being a villain several episodes after Onpu’s introduction and became drinking buddies with Majo Rika due to their shared status. Finally, she expressed concern for Onpu’s well-being (if only because Onpu was the only one who could change her back). Afterward, she pretty much faded into the background, though her occasional appearances would have again her as Majo Rika’s drinking buddy.

"That's right, Nekomimi-Sama." Onpu said.

"Majo Ruka's a really greedy witch." Aiko said. "She also tried to steal the Witch World's throne."

"Demo ne, I taught her a lesson she'll never forget." Megan said. Shortly after Megan became a witch apprentice, she and Majorin got into a little mess with Majo Ruka. Apparently, Majo Ruka tried to kill the Queen with a poisoned Queen's Peach, but she failed and Megan kicked her butt. "No one threatens Jou-Sama and gets away with it." Megan was very protective of the Queen.

Now this? This (thankfully non-canon) scene was only in Ojamajo Princess. At the end of it, Majo Ruka is actually killed without remorse. The scene itself was pure demonization, and it leads to a plothole here because, unless some other evil witch gave her life to revive her, Majo Ruka should have stayed dead.

"Now isn't that a story worth hearing?" Amelia chuckled.

"You have no idea, my friend." Majorin said.

It’s gone, really. Although it is worth riffing…

"Anyway... We're not gonna fall for it, right, minna?" Megan said.

"Etto, Meg-Chan, I think we should at least give her a chance." Hazuki said.

"NANI?!" Megan yelled. "Are you crazy?! Majo Ruka practically screams villainess! Which is why I make her the bad guy in my stories!"

Because you want a villain and you obviously haven’t abandoned her actions in season 1 despite her growing out of it?

She does this to Oyajide, too. One one-shot enemy in Ojamajo Princess was described as looking like him in mer-form. She also cast him as Dr. Eggman in her “Sonic Unleashed” fanmake and as Jafar in her long-deleted “Yugddin” famake. This is despite him going through far more development and cementing his heel face turn by Dokkan.

"Demo, even villainess deserve second chances, right?"

Hazuki has a point. Sometimes, the villains, especially in a white-and-gray-morality series such as this,do deserve second chances. And often times, they don't squander them as they do in black and white morality works.

"Mmm... Maybe." Megan pouted.

"Besides, it couldn't hurt just to check it out." Momoko said.

"You never really know, ney Meg-Chan?" Brittany said.

Megan started thinking. It still sounded quite suspicious. After everything Majo Ruka put her through, was there a slight, minute chance she's changed her ways? "Mou... I guess... it really couldn't... hurt just to check with her."

"All right, Meg-Chan!" Aiko said.

"But if she pulls a fast one, it is go time!" Megan held a fist up.

And since this fic is written by her, for her, and the Sue is the one suspecting anything, well, take a wild guess.

Random Japanese: 94

The gang arrived at Majo Ruka's lair at 2:00, the time specified on the invitation. They stepped into the castle foyer.

Here’s some canon defilement for you! Since when does Majo Ruka have a castle of her own? As far as I can tell, there’s only ONE castle in the Witch World (and one in the Wizard World, but that’s a different can of worms). It’s owned by the Queen and her staff, and Majo Ruka is not part of it.

This is just Megan ripping events from the game element-for-element.

A table with a big spread of food was laid out.

It was all ordered from the local fast food joint. Everyone just went “meh” and ignored it.

Seriously, describe it! We could use some food porn! I mean, the table in the game proper was FULL of food typically found in luxurious restaurants.

Majo Ruka came into the room. She was in her human form. How she got that form back without help from her apprentice, we'll never know.

Um, “we”? There’s no “we” in this fic. It’s just the author, the audience doesn’t count. I would call the author on Majo Ruka being in human(oid) form, but the contrivance was at least lampshaded. Should have used a character’s quote, though.

"Ahh, the witches of Maho Dou, welcome, welcome to my humble home." Majo Ruka greeted in a cheerful tone, which Megan found absolutely disgusting.

"Ugh, gag me with a hairball." Megan rolled her eyes.

"Oh Megan-San, you're still sour about everything?"

"I'm only here because my friends think you deserve a second chance. I was outruled."

“Overruled” is the correct terminology here. Research, Megan. RESEARCH!

"Well, I'll let bygones be bygones." Majo Ruka said. "And who is this? A new member of the team?" She looked over at Amelia. "I don't believe we've met before."

Megan sighed, "Go on, Captain. Introducce yourself."

“Introducce?” Um, I don’t think Amelia understands that word.

Amelia stepped forward. "A-Hem. Watashi Senchö Amelia. Yoroshiku onegai shimasu." (Possible translation: I am Captain Amelia. Pleased to meet you.)

Oh, it means “introduce”, except for weaboos.

Random Japanese: 100

"Charmed, I'm sure, Senchö-Sama." Majo Ruka said.

"All right, I'll bite. Why did you call us here, Majo Ruka?" Megan asked.

"I told you in my invitation. I want to apologize for being such a horrible person to you all."

"Megan-Chan still won't forgive you for trying to kill me," Jou-Sama said, "demo ne, I think she's really hoping that you've changed your ways."

She did. Sadly, it was back in canon, so it doesn’t apply here. Appreciate your optimism and idealism, though.

"We're sure stranger things have happened." Majorin said.

Strange things happen a lot in canon, too. What’s so strange about former bad guys turning good when it happens all the time in canon?

"Okay, enough talking!" Doremi said. "Let's eat!"

(Doremi) “That burger looks like steak!”

"Yes, yes, but before we get into my little spread here..." Majo Ruka said, walking over to her throne at the far end of the foyer.

Majo Ruka doesn’t have a throne! She doesn’t live in a castle, and no one in their right mind would put their personal throne in a foyer! Seriously, stop pasting the game’s canon over the anime’s!

"I have a little surprise for you all." She then pressed a button on the underside of one of her throne's arms.

Suddenly, a cage landed and trapped the heroines!

"What the heck?!" Aiko exclaimed.

"What's going on?!" Onpu yelled.

"It was a trap!" Brittany yelled.

Again, Admiral Ackbar would be proud.

"I won't even say I told ya so, because I did!" Megan snapped.

"Thanks for not rubbing it in, Meg-Chan." Momoko said.

"Hue! This is scary!" Hana said.

"You should have listened to Megan-San." Majo Ruka said with a chuckle. "But then again, I'm glad you all didn't."

And the obligatory Sue shilling followed by gloating. How many times has that occurred in other stories?

"Captain, tell me you have your pistol with you." Megan whispered to Amelia.

"Sorry. I'm unarmed." Amelia said.

"Nani?! But you always carry a laser pistol with you!"

"I... I didn't think I'd need it, so I left all my weaponry on the Legacy."

(Amelia) “That, and Japanese law would have me arrested simply for having one on me since I’m not part of their law enforcement or Defense Force.”

Then, another witch appeared by Majo Ruka's side. "Que fantastico, Bruja Ruka. Those Ojamajos fell for it, didn't they?"

Okay, first, we have random Japanese strewn all over the place. Now we have random Spanish?! Make up your mind, Megan!

"Hola, Señorita Isabelle." Megan said to the other witch. Majo Isabelle was one of Megan's original villainesses. Isabelle is a Spanish witch. She's not as dangerous as Majo Ruka, but has proven to be a somewhat formidable adversary.

Oh! False alarm!

Majo Isabelle's mannerisms include occasionally speaking her native tongue. Megan has also confirmed that she is the type who loves a good spot of tea with other people, so I’m assuming she’s affably evil. That, and she has periods of insanity she calls “genius”. Gee, when did I LAST mention that?

Of course, considering what she did (or rather, was set to do) in her official debut fic, I’d say she’s far more dangerous that Majo Ruka ever was.

There’s a bit of history later in the fic, and I will assist in covering that as well.

The verdict is out on how much Spanish Megan actually knows, however…

"Enough with these formalities! Hand over that Sky Crystal." Majo Ruka demanded.

"I don't know what you're talking about!" Megan snapped.

"Oh sure ya do, Meg-Chan! We found one last night!" Brittany said.

"You are not helping!" Megan yelled.

(Brittany) “Oh yeah? Why are you insisting on using your name when you spoke before me?”

"Since you're going to be that way..." Majo Ruka took out some kind of staff.

"Wh-What is that?" Hazuki asked.

A baseball bat? Or perhaps it’s some kind of mace?

"This is Isabelle's newest invention. She calls it the Minimizer.

WRONG! The Minimizer was made by Bowser for the purpose of the game this fic is following. Get some creativity, Megan!

And what does it do, you may ask?" Majo Ruka smirked. She held it up to the ceiling and the Minimizer started to glow.

To the Ojamajos's surprise, they were shrinking! They were shrunk down to the size of toy figurines! The Sky Crystal fell out of Megan's pocket.

Can you be any more bland, Megan? Sheez!

"The Sky Crystal!" Megan exclaimed.

Majo ruka

-Ceased to be important since her name was no longer capitalized.

picked up the Crystal and chuckled, "Now your crystal is mine. I just need to find the other four." She put the crystal into her pocket. "Señorita Isabelle, I'm done with these small fries. Get rid of them."

"Si, Bruja Ruka, with pleasure." Isabelle nodded.

Then, everything went back for the heroines.

(Ojamajos) “Are we there, yet?”

"Meg-Chan! Meg-Chan! Wake up!" Brittany shook Megan.

"Bri-Chan?" Megan said. "Wh-Where are we? What's going on?"

"Isabelle dropped us in the middle of nowhere." Hazuki said.

"We're miles and miles away from Majo Ruka's castle!" Hana said.

Y’know, Megan failed to tell us where Majo Ruka’s castle was. Is it in the Human World, where the Sky Crystals were seen falling to the ground? Or is it in the Witch World, where Majo Ruka would logically live? I’m assuming the latter because why would a Witch make a castle in the Human World that just screams…well…okay, Megan really failed to give any real description.

Plan things out, Megan! Sheez!

"And Majo Ruka stole your Sky Crystal!" Momoko said. "She's going after the other four!"

Yes, we established that last scene. Thank you very much, Baker of the Obvious!

"They could be anywhere." Onpu said.

"Whoa! Minna, look how big everything is." Doremi said, looking up at the big world around them. "Majo Ruka shrunk us so we wouldn't get in her way."

"Dang, everything is so big!" Megan said. "Now I know how Alice felt."

Disney reference aside, I think Doremi did a better job at remarking upon it. Your contribution is about as useful as your addition of Amelia to this fic.

"What are we gonna do?" Aiko said.

"Firstly, we have to get back to Majo Ruka's castle." Jou-Sama said. "She's the one who shrunk us, so we'll have to get her to unshrink us and we'll have to do it by force."

You were shrunk by a piece of technology. You can use Magical Stage to return yourselves to normal, can you not? Mario and the gang had no such luxury, so why not use it now? And isn’t Her Majesty a powerful Witch? Couldn’t SHE simply undo this spell? Unless it’s magitek that can greatly suppress magical strength, I don’t see why everyone has to go and travel while the size of mice.

"We also need to find the remaining Sky Crystals." Majorin added.

"That's gonna take forever. Who knows how far we are from Majo Ruka's place?" Hazuki said.

"If I had my spyglass with me, I'd be able to calculate our position." Amelia said. "But for the moment, girls, we've completely lost our bearings."

And you didn’t take it with you, why? It would have been perfectly legal! …I think? Regardless, if someone who is established to be genre savvy (even if it’s a Sue) warns of something, it’s probably a good idea to follow that point.

"Sona. We're lost." Hana said.

Well said, Hana.

Megan then put on a determined face. "Come on, minna! Let's not lose all hope! We're Ojamajos! And we do not, repeat do not! Take defeat so easily!"

"Meg-Chan's right. We'll find a way. We may be small, but we can do anything!" Brittany said.

Naturally, the lesser Sue talks up the worse one. Seriously, a Sue talking up an even worse Sue doesn’t make it any better!

"Yeah! Let's do this!" Aiko cheered.

"Yeah!" The others cheered.

"Watashitachi makenai!" Amelia flashed a peace sign and a wink. (Possible Translation: We can't lose!)

Gee, thanks! Could’ve used that translation last sporking. But, too bad: Some folks beat you to the punch.

"Better watch your back, Majo Ruka! These small fries are comin' for ya!" Megan threw a fist in the air.

And of course, the Sue gets the final say for now. Chapter fini-OH WAIT! THERE’S MORE!

Closing Song: There's Something About The Sunshine. (Special Amelia version)

AGAIN?! You’re making no changes to the lyrics and you’re calling it some special version?! Seriously?! No wonder you lost so many of your fics due to plagiarism…

Either way, I’m getting rid of the lyrics. No sense in using them.

(Footage: As the music starts, the sun rises over Maho Dou. The Ojamajos burst out, ready to play)

And again, they don’t seem too relevant.

(Footage: Amelia is walking down the street, kind of in time to the song, and swinging her arms around.)

OOCness on Amelia’s part, right here! Sheez! Remind me again WHY you’re shoehorning her into this fic?!

(Footage: Megan and Hana join in. Chibi versions of Brittany, Anna, Jou-Sama and Majorin start dancing on the corners of the screen.)

(Jou-sama) “I have a little twin. No, seriously, I have a twin sister who lives in the Human World with Hana-chan’s twin sister!”

(Brittany and Majorin) “Same. By the way, that bit with Anna is TOTALLY NOT foreshadowing!”

 (Footage: Doremi and friends point straight ahead to an unknown destination. The camera pans out to the sky. Amelia spins into view, holding out her hand to the audience.)

The audience doesn’t take it. They were expecting a Doremi fic and got a childish mishmash instead.

(Footage: We cut to Majorin, Amelia and Jou-Sama lying down on a hill, looking at the clouds)

(Jou-sama) “Darn! I got grass stains and grass blades and –OH MY GOD!”

(Footage: The Ojamajos are playing around at the playground near Megan's house. Hana slides down a big twisty slide and flies off into the clouds. Megan jumps on the slide to catch up with Hana. The others follow suit)

Uh, what? Megan’s house? The same one she left behind when she abandoned her family? Granted, she never got Ojamajo Princess finished before its deletion, but COME ON! Unless she’s made a house for herself in the Witch World or somewhere near Misora, but that’s a whole other can of worms.

(Footage: High up in the clouds, the girls are dancing. On 'Swayin'', Megan and Brittany are swaying , kind of lazily around. Momoko and Aiko appear on opposite ends of the screen and flash a thumbs up)

They fell through clouds and impacted with the ground. ENDING OVER!

This isn’t really a prologue chapter in the slightest. The presence of openings and endings pretty much assures that. But good LORD! First chapter in, and we’ve got sooo much Random Japanese! I estimate that by the time I’m done sporking the rest of the chapters, the count will be more than double that of Rise of the Shadows.

For now, enjoy the sporking.
