"Okay," Nanny Mary let Trixie eat her dessert in peace, but as soon as Trixie was done drinking the last bits from her sippy cup, she spoke as thus, "Please leave us."

  And as soon as Trixie nodded at the maid who didn't stop staring at Trixie, they all left the dinning hall, leaving Trixie alone with Nanny Mary, it was time to play!

  "What can you tell me about this... Toybox?" Nanny Mary asked from beside Trixie, she had also eaten her breakfast in a seat beside Trixie, but unlike Trixie, she hadn't made as much of a mess, not a single bit of food had fallen on the table or the floor! Nanny Mary was once again, showing her mighty witchcraft!

  "The Toybox is the toybox!" Trixie said nodding sagely, "It's where Trixie pulls out and stores her toys!"

  That was what a ToyBox was after all.

  "So, can you pull a toy for me?" Nanny Mary asked, "Or better yet, can you store this in there?"

  Nanny Mary then passed Trixie a fork, why was she passing her a fork? Was this a toy?

  It wasn't right?

  The head maid always said that these weren't toys, so surely it wasn't a toy.

  "Trixie can try...?" Trixie said frowing and focusing on the fork, not that it would do anything since it wasn't a toy. "To the toybox it goes!"

  And as Trixie said that, she opened the Toybox and tried her best shoving the fork into it.

  As soon as she tried and shoved the fork into the ripple that appeared in front of Trixie... The fork refused to move.

  "Gnuuuuuu!" Trixie gnnuuued her best, but the fork didn't go in, because it wasn't a toy. "Trixie can't, she can only store toys in it."

  "I see." Nanny Mary said nodding, extending her hand at the other side of the ripple in the air, so Trixie went ahead and gave her the fork. "It can go past the opening, but not into the opening then. So not an actual door or barrier in space huh."

  Hah?

  "I... guess?" Trixie said confused, "Trixie can get past the opening into the Toybox, but not into the Toybox. A toybox is only for toys after all."

  "So can you pull one of those toys?" Nanny Mary said turning to Trixie, "Pick your favorite toy."

  Her favorite toy? She had so many right now!

  She liked that one Knight of White, and that one knight of white... And that one knight of white!

  But most of them were training right now! She couldn't pull them right now!

  "Gnnuuuuuuuuu!" Trixie gnnued in defeat, all her favorite toys were busy! No wait! That was it! "Poi!"

  Trixie focused the Toybox and pulled at... "The ball!" The ball!

  It wasn't Trixie's favorite toy, but it was one that was fun to play with, it was The Ball?, it was Tifanny's favorite toy!

  It was Mister Ball!

  "A rubber ball?" Nanny Mary said picking up the ball as it was falling into the floor, since the door that Trixie had opened was standing, the ball just fell straight to the ground!

  "Yes!" Trixie said nodding, "That is one of Tiffany's toys."

  Tifanny should be still sleeping, all her pet doggos usually sleeped till afternoon when Trixie wanted to play with them after all, such good doggos!

  "And where is this Tiffany?" Nanny Mary asked examining the ball, did she love the ball? That was a very good ball, it had been a rude person before, but since becoming a ball it was so well behaved! It no longer spat at Trixie or insulted Papa! "Is she a friend?"

  "Tiffany is Trixie's new doggo!" Trixie said smiling brightly, "She was one of the gifts she got in her birthday party! She should be eeping right now."

  Trixie hadn't gone and check on that, but she was sure that her Toybox would never lie to her!

  "I see, do you take her for walkies then? You need to take her for walkies, pet her and play with her too Trixie." Nanny Mary said to Trixie all serious! "Taking care of a pet should have its responsibilities, getting the maids or butler to do it for you is wrong."

  Trixie needed to do that? She had never been told that!

  What about Trixie's time for snackies and playing!?!?!?!

  "Trixie didn't know!" Trixie said scared for her snackie time! "But Tiffany is sleeping! Should Trixie wake her up then?"

  Trixie would, of course, do that; it wouldn't take much time, either, since all she needed was to pull Tiffany using the Toybox, but still... wouldn't it be rude to wake Tiffany like that?

  "We can do that in the afternoon, we will be in the yard after all. I assume that Tiffany has her dog house somewhere there?" Nanny Mary asked looking into one of the doors that went to the yard.

  Trixie assumed the house of dogs was there, since Nanny Mary had said so, so the Toybox put it there in a nice spot.

  "Yes," Trixie nodded as she felt Tiffany land on her butt as the Toybox spat her into the yard, it was always so funny when Tiffany started licking her but. Silly Tiffany, the tongue doesn't go there! The tongue is for eating candies and tasty food! Not for licking butts! "Trixie's toybox put the doggy house in the yard."

  "The toybox?" Nanny Mary asked confused, "But... didn't you say that it only allows toys?"

  "Yes?" Trixie said confused tilting her head, "Tiffany was a toy given to Trixie. That's why Trixie can use the Toybox to move Tiffany around."

  The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

  "...But this Tiffany is a normal dog right?" Nanny Mary said nursing the side of her forehead, "A normal living dog? One that eats and drinks water?"

  "It also poops and licks its butt." Trixie said nodding, "But that doesn't stop it from being Trixie's toy. Why would that change their nature as Trixie's toy?"

  Was Nanny Mary dum? A toy was a toy!

  "Dogs aren't toys Trixie." Nanny Mary shook her head, "You must not think about them as toys, they are alive and will get sad if you only see them as toys."

  "B-But..." Trixie said confused at this statement, "Tiffany was a bad toy, that's why its now Tiffany! Everyone said so too!"

  Trixie would never see it otherway! Bad toys shot bubbles at Trixie, so Trixie helped them by getting the Toybox to make them good toys!

  Tiffany was a bad toy before, but now it was such a good toy! It let Trixie put them ribbons, braid their fur and paint cute drawings!

  Okay, maybe Trixie hadn't done that yet with Tiffany, but all the other doggos had let her do that, so there was no reason why Tiffany wouldn't!

  "... Your dog... was a toy?" Nanny Mary asked as she leaned back on her chair, "Tiffany was a bad toy, so the toybox turned it into a dog?"

  "Yes!" Trixie nodded, Nanny Mary was getting it now!

  "First," Nanny Mary said closing her eyes and raising a finger, "Never tell anyone outside of your father that your toybox can turn toys into living entities."

  ...But it couldn't do that... or could it? Could Trixie turn a fork into a living enterality? entei? eternal? enchilada?

  "Second," Nanny Mary finally opened her eyes and turned to Trixie, "Never, ever turn back them. Any toy you turn into a living entity, gets to stay like that. Okay Trixie? You have to promise me."

  "Okay." Trixie nodded, she hadn't done something as extreme as turning a toy into a person though, but if Nanny Mary was this serious, it probably was something important.

  Perhaps Trixie had been about to do something dumb again? Like how Shiori-sama sometimes asked Trixie things like that, to ensure that Trixie didn't do an oopsie.

  Trixie would listen and understand (At some point) what this was about, but for now she needed to remember to not do that.

  "ToyBox!" Trixie said raising her fingie to the sky, "Remind Trixie about what Nanny Mary said!"

  The Toybox also worked to store reminders after all, so she would ask the Toybox for that!

  "... Please don't tell me your toybox is alive too..." Nanny Mary almost groaned! Trixie noticed! Heheheheheh.

  "Of course not," Trixie said mid-smile, "But Trixie uses it to store reminders for herself. And the Toybox gives them back to Trixie when she needs it."

  "Ah," Nanny Mary nodded, "So it's like a spell genie then, that works."

  A spell genius? But Trixie was dum! She wasn't a genius!

  "Can it answer to me too?" Nanny Mary asked, "Toybox, give me an accurate representation of your scale of power comparing it against this."

  And as Nanny Mary spoke, a ball of fire materialized above Nanny Mary's hand. Nice.

  "So?" Nanny Mary asked while waiting.

  Ah right!

  "Toybox!" Trixie said pointing at the ball of fire, "Do whatever Nanny Mary asked!"

  Trixie had forgotten that the Toybox only listened to Trixie! She had half expected for it to answer to Nanny Mary, somehow it felt... kinda right? Nanny Mary was that kind of person right.

  Maybe if she was a toy.... But no, Nanny Mary wasn't a toy, she couldn't be a toy, she was a good person after all!

  "Any second." Nanny Mary said waiting.

  But she waited no more! For the Toybox started to answer!

  Trixie didn't know how to answer what Nanny Mary asked, so the Toybox also didn't know, it wasn't till she remembered what Shiori-sama and Papa had said that one time that she came up with a solution!

  When in doubt... Show enough power that they no longer want to compete against you! The Toybox manifested an opening around the sphere of fire and then engulfed it whole!

  Eating it away and leaving nothing behind.

  "... That is an interesting way to showcase power." Nanny Mary said opening and closing her hand, all the spheres of fire that she manifested got snuffed away as soon as they appeared, no matter where she summoned them.

  Be it near her hand, away from it, or that one that she had hidden behind the door into the dining hall. Trixie's Toybox detected all of them and snuffed the maway!

  It was that good her Toybox.

  "Heheheh." Trixie puffed out her chest in pride, since Nanny Mary hadn't said anything it meant this was the correct approach!

  "So, does that mean that my fireballs are a toy?" Nanny Mary asked turning to Trixie, "Can you get them out?"

  ....

  Could she?

  "Can I?" Trixie asked turning her attention to the ripple in the air that was the opening into the Toybox, "Let me see."

  And like that Trixie shoved her hand into the ripple in space, messing around the contents looking for something hot, but she found nothing.

  "Toybox!" Trixie said stomping at the floor, "Trixie wants one of the balls of fire!"

  And as she said that, she opened her palm and put it in front of her, waiting for the ball to play with. It wasn't even a whole second (Too long to be honest) when the Toybox spat a ball for Trixie to play with.

  "Here it is!" Trixie said picking up the ball of fire and showing it to Nanny Mary.

  Nanny Mary took the ball and made it spin above her hand, nice.

  "It is... fire... stable, in a solid form." Nanny Mary said poking and prodding the ball of fire, didn't she know how her ball of fire worked? "Interesting... let's go to the yard Trixie."

  And carrying the ball of fire in the left hand, and Trixie's hand in the right hand, they moved to the yard. Nanny Mary guided Trixie till they stood near a cute pond that Trixie hadn't gone near.

  Mostly because whenever she was near the pond the head maid would get angry and scold Trixie, send her to her room and take away her snackies.

  So Trixie didn't come near any pond, ever. But since she was today with Nanny Mary, surely it would be fine, right? RIGHT?

  "Okay Trixie, this is one of my normal fireballs." Nanny Mary said, sitting Trixie near one of the benches that were away from the water.

  Once Trixie was all comfy, Nanny Mary raised a finger and another ball of fire manifested. "They are dangerous and you shouldn't touch them okay?" Nanny Mary waited till Trixie nodded at that statement.

  "They are used like this." Nanny Mary then moved her hand away from them, towards a spot near the pond, a place with some gravel and no much grass nearby, "Fireball."

  Nanny Mary's voice sounded somewhat... weird? Like she was speaking two or three times at the same time, but each word only sounded once, but they all sounded at the same time? It was weird.

  But that was not important, what was important was that the sphere of fire went flying like wooooooosh and as soon as it touched the sand it burst!

  "It broke!" Trixie elaborated further, the sphere of fire turned into fireworks!

  "Yes, that is why these are dangerous." Nanny Mary said nodding, with a flick of her hand some of the water from the pond came flying and turned off the fire that Nanny Mary had made. "And this... is the one that came from your toybox."

  Nanny Mary then moved the ball of fire into her right hand and threw it to the same spot as her fireball. The second one... merely landed in the spot and bounced away.

  "Why do you think this is happening?" Nanny Mary said turning to Trixie.

  "....Because that is how... balls work?" Trixie said confused, why had the first one done the firework and not this one? "No, wait, you cheated!"

  Trixie realized the answer!

  "You didn't throw a ball of fire, but fireworks!" Trixie had found out the hidden plot! The hidden plot that was aplooting!

  "No," Nanny Mary said shaking her head, "What I did the first time, was create a Fire Ball, then your Toybox took it and turned it into a Ball of Fire."

  Nanny Mary started explaining as she picked up the ball of fire and showed it to Trixie, for some reason Nanny Mary ensured that the fire ball was far away from Trixie, so she couldn't touch it though.

  "How does a ball work Trixie?" Nanny Mary asked next.

  "They... bounce?" Trixie answered confused, everyone knew how a ball worked, even Trixie as dumb as she was knew that!

  "Yes, they bounce. So since this is a ball of fire, this one will bounce too, right?" Nanny Mary said pointing at the ball of fire that the Toybox had given them back.

  "Yes." Trixie nodded once more, she was getting these lessons! Trixie would be so smart when they were done!

  "But that is not how a fireball works." Nanny Mary suddenly said confusing Trixie! "A fireball is a spell that creates a sphere of fire, it is not a ball, as such it doesn't bounce, when it hits something the fire spreads all around."

  ...Like the first one that Nanny Mary had made!

  Trixie understood it!

  "As for this... Is it made of fire?" Nanny Mary asked pointing at the ball of fire.

  "Yes?" Trixie answered, now that she said that, why hadn't it hurt when Trixie saw Nanny Mary playing with the ball of fire? "Is it hot?"

  "It sure is," Nanny Mary said nodding, and before Trixie could ask something else, she threw it into the pond.

  As soon as it touched the pond, the water extinguished the fire.

  "Aww..." Trixie uttered as the ball disappeared, Trixie didn't get to touch it, could she ask Nanny Mary for another? "Can..."

  "No," Nanny Mary answered before Trixie could ask! That was cheating too! "Our next lesson is about Magic, but I can answer the first question you were going to ask instead if you want."

  "Trixie understands why not!" Trixie said saluting Nanny Mary, she wanted to learn magic after all.

  She would become a Magical Girl!
