[color=deepskyblue]"La da da!~"[/color] Keiko hummed happily as she strolled through the store, surveying the groceries like a seasoned housewife. She stared critically at meat, weighed vegetables to attain the best deal, and bought the milk with the latest due date. Tsubame watched amusedly as a few adults asked the elementary schooler if she knew where her parents were, if she needed help carrying those bags, if she would like that item on the top shelf? Only the last question was acknoledged, as four foot seven inches was not an ideal height for grocery-shopping.

Several customers rushed to her aid, but she refused. The sight was so cute that a sizable amount of customers stayed to gawk at her cuteness.

A few minutes and several wrong turns later, the pair found themselves in an isolated field. With a flash of blue, Reiko morphs into her magical girl form. Her scarf forms a pair of wings, and in the blink of an eye, she's airborne.
