The Wishers
A Multi-Fandom Crossover
I. Prologue
"What's this, Yuuko-san?" Watanuki Kimihiro asked as he passed by a huge locked door. He examined it with curious eyes. The dark-haired boy thought that he knew every inch of the shop. Where did that door come from?
His employer, the beautiful and mysterious Ichihara Yuuko, looked up from the magazine she was reading. She raised an elegant eyebrow before replying, "It's a door."
"I know it's a door," her part-time employee with an unusual ability to see spirits sputtered. "When did we have a door at this side of the house?"
The Witch of Dimension smiled at her little pet as it turned the pages of her magazine. The dark Mokona smiled back. "We had it ever since."
Watanuki was then sent to clean the shop thoroughly. The floors must be polished, the ceiling must be swept and the snacks must be made. Every nook and cranny was polished and shined. When the abused servant dared to ask why, his employer merely smiled.
He plopped down on the veranda and wiped his sweaty brow. In his opinion, he was doing far too much for his job description. Paying his debt was hard work.
"We're receiving guests," Yuuko said.
Watanuki waited for the guest but nobody came.
A glance at his employer told him that she was not bothered at all. To answer his questioning looks, Mokona jumped up on his shoulder. "Every ten years, the shop opens up in all dimensions. It becomes visible and accessible to anyone who has a wish. Think of it as an open Fair like in the Village of Wall. It's Yuuko's job to grant wishes."
"Doesn't she do that already?" Watanuki asked.
"Yes," Mokona nodded "she'll receive guests from other dimensions who can't see the shop from where they were."
