Back to the present

Chapter Seven: Back to the Present

After Amy's nostalgic flashback to her younger years, she found herself back in the present, still running the bar that had become her home. Despite the bar's magical properties that prevented her from aging beyond 25, a decade had passed since she took over its ownership. The menu was now entirely her own creation, with each recipe for her magic drinks crafted by her own hands, using bits and pieces of the potions from the book Michael had given her.

Amy continued to serve her customers, who traveled from far and wide to experience the enchantment of her magical drinks. The bar had become a destination for those seeking a taste of wonder and a touch of the extraordinary. As she interacted with her patrons, Amy took pride in the joy and amazement her creations brought to their lives.

On this particular day, a young man approached the bar and ordered a glass of "Body," one of Amy's signature magical drinks. With her usual flair and expertise, she prepared the drink, infusing it with the essence of transformation. As she handed it to the man, he thanked her and took a sip.

Almost instantly, the magic within the drink began to take effect. The man felt a surge of warmth coursing through his body, and he could sense a change occurring within him. His chest transformed, taking on the shape and form of a woman's. Startled yet amused, he laughed and made his way over to a group of friends, who joined in the laughter at his unexpected new appearance.

Amy watched the scene unfold with a smile, pleased to see her magic bringing joy and laughter to her guests. The bar had become a place where people could let go of their inhibitions, embrace the unexpected, and revel in the magic that surrounded them.

As the night continued, more customers arrived, each seeking their own unique experience. Some desired potions to enhance their strength, while others sought drinks that would grant them glimpses of distant lands or the ability to communicate with animals. Amy catered to their desires, using her expertise and the knowledge she had acquired over the years to create drinks that would fulfill their wishes.

The bar buzzed with excitement and conversation, as patrons shared stories of their transformations and adventures. Amy moved gracefully behind the bar, her eyes sparkling with a mixture of contentment and a thirst for more knowledge. She had come a long way from her lonely days on the streets of Magland, and she was grateful for the opportunity to bring magic and happiness to others.

As the night drew to a close, Amy took a moment to reflect on her journey. She had embraced her role as the guardian of the bar, carrying on the legacy that Mr. Michael had entrusted to her. The bar had become more than just a place of magic; it was a sanctuary where people could be their true selves, even if only for a fleeting moment.

With renewed determination, Amy looked forward to the future, eager to continue her exploration of magic and the creation of her unique potions. She knew that as long as she stayed true to the rules of the bar and nurtured the magic within, it would continue to guide and protect her.

And so, with a heart full of gratitude and a mind brimming with possibilities, Amy prepared for another day of enchantment, ready to welcome new guests and weave her magic into their lives.
