Prompt 2: The Wishing Tree
Your wish is only said to come true if you grant the wish of someone else; when you write your wish, you must also take one off of the tree and do your best to grant it. What wish do you pull off, and how do you intend to ‘grant’ it? Do you work with someone else to grant this wish, or do you work alone? You may get approval from another player to use the wish their character hung up, but no names are attached so your character may not ever know who wrote it!
Hikari had just hung out her wish on the tree when she heard her sister call for her. "kari-chan come on lets go!" She yelled impatiently. "Just a minute!" The young senshi called back as she scanned the tree for a wish she could fulfil. "I've got to find a wish to grant!" Her twin huffed in annoyance while their mother just let out a chuckle at their mini argument. She needed something she could do either as herself or perhaps with the power she had as Tachibana. Then she spotted on that almost seemed to call out to her, 'Restore our community garden'. It reminded her of her world's own ruined garden. She could do this one. She had been studying gardening recently to help her planet so this would be a good test of her knowledge. She took the paper and bounced over to her sister and mother as the trio left.
There was a location on the paper describing where the garden was located, it was crop garden not a flower garden but Hikari was pretty sure the same principals applied. She decided she would do this job as Tachibana her additional strength and speed would make the process go much quicker. So during the day she gathered the materials she needed to garden and after everyone had gone to bed she snuck out of her room grabbing her supplies and summoning pulling her Henshin pen from her pajama pockets. "Tachibana Power, Make Up!" She called out as golden flower petals danced around her and light enveloped her, she became Sailor Tachibana, the Senshi of Chrysanthemums.
Tachibana grabbed the gardening supplies and began to make her way towards the ruined garden, the place was certainly in a bad way the crops had been mangled and crushed, some eaten. She wondered what could have done this, but she shrugged it off that didn't matter at the moment what mattered was fixing this. So she cleared the dead plants and broken equipment from the area, she retiled the soil adding a layer of compost to help revitalize the earth there. All told the process took a couple of hours but as the end she looked over her work satisfied. She believed that once the residence planted there crops here again they would take well. She pondering what exactly the the people here might grow when her thoughts were interrupted by a roar behind her.
A way too big bettle, one the size of a wolf, stood menacingly. Even if the aura did not give it away the unnatural coloring of the monster would have marked it clearly as a yoma, the monster have a jet black carapace with dots of bioluminescence that made it appear like the night sky. Ara had a feeling she knew now what had destroyed this garden as the monster charged her with its horn. She nimbly jumped over the creature summoning her magic as she did "Tachibana Thousand Petal Vortex!" As she sprayed the monster with golden petals it stopped it's rampage to try to swat at the petals with it's horn. She ran to grab her gardening hoe, she needed any sort of improvised weapon she could get her hands on at the moment. She brought it down on the monster's back with all the force she could manage, she repeated this until she brought through the carapace driving it into the creature as it let out one last roar of pain before turning to dust on the ground. She breathed a sigh of relief she had managed to dust the youma all on her own. She looked at the wish on the slip of paper again. She decided to bury it where the dust of the youma now lay. She hoped she fulfilled the persons wish. She hoped now her own wish for beautiful flowers all across the city would come true. Feeling good about a job well done she headed back home to get some much needed rest.
