Antipsycotics And Golden Arches
"Alright, " Narcissa started. " Everybody buckled in?"
The car was filled with a mix on nods and "Yes." or "Yeah."
"Okay. Draco, drive to the international portkey and get us to Hidden Nikkō, Japan please." Draco started the car and they were off down the street. " And once we get into Nikko, can you drop me and the girls off at the McDonald's with the playground? I sent Raymond a message on my enchanded watch so he knows we will be there and he will pick us up after he gets off work. You'll have to pick up Akihiko from school."
"Okay, Mum. Does anybody else want to be dropped off at McDonald's or....?"
" Molly and I would." Mr. Weasley spoke up from the back seat. "I've never been to a muggle restaurant and I'm quite curious to see who this Ham-Burglar fellow is that I've heard so much about."
"Okay, then." Draco responded a smile creeping on to his face. " Mr. Weasley, I'm sure you and my Step Dad-"
The young girls interrupted him, yet again. "You call him Dad, Draco!" Akemi started.
"Just tell people he's your Dad, it's fine." Anya finished.
"Okay, oh my God, relax. As I was saying, Mr. Weasley, I'm sure you and my Dad will get along pretty well."
"I agree, Draco." Narcissa stated. " Molly told me earlier that you had a fascination with muggle mechanics, no?"
Mr. Weasley nodded. " Then I don't doubt that you and my husband will get along very well, he is a mechanic for cars."
This peaked Arthur's interest. "Really? Where does he work?"
" He owns his own automotive repair company." She stated proudly. "It's called 'Raymond's Repair Shop'. Draco works part-time there and works part-time at this ice cream shop at the strip mall. What was it called again, dear?"
Draco let out a sighed before he muttered something under his breath.
" Speak up, Dorako. You know I don't like it when you mumble." His mother scolded.
He rolled his eyes and said begrudgingly. "It's called Mochi Madness, or at least that's what it's called in English."
Fred spoke next. "What's mochi?"
Akemi and Anya gasped. " You don't know what mochi is!?" They asked together, shocked that someone didn't know what their favorite dessert was.
Fred shook his head. "Never had it before." He explained.
Narcissa smiled fondly at the scene. "Draco will just have to make us some when we get home."
There was a loud, annoyed groan from the front seat. "Honestly, I spend all day at work making ice cream mochi, then I come home and I have to make traditional mochi, then I have to make all of the meals because nobody else in the house knows how to cook-"
"Hey! I know how to cook!" Narcissa spoke up from the backseat. Draco just playfully rolled his eyes while his sisters giggled.
"Mum, I love you, but the last time you tried to make ajitama, you burnt this inside of the egg and the shell and somehow the whites were raw. I have no clue how you did that, but what I do know is that after that mess, Dad banned you from the kitchen." Draco never sugar coated what he said, he was a very direct person. This, of course, was no difference.
Narcissa let out an annoyed huff and crossed her arms while glaring at her son.
It was an awkward car ride until they made it to the international portkey. It looked like an old toll booth with only one person inside.
Once they got there Draco had to show proof of identity and his driver's license. After that, they handed him an old looking bowler hat with a red ribbon on it and a card with the time the portkey will operate. It was set for ten minutes after they had got it.
They pulled off onto the side of a road and started down a windy back road before it felt like the entire car shifted and turned inside out, before they were in front of another toll booth.
Draco gave them back the hat, and they were off down the road again. They went through a decent sized traditional town, it looked as if they were celebrating something to do with the winter season, before Draco turned into a dead end back alley.
He stopped the car and turned around in his seat and said in a very serious tone. "Don't freak out, I may have to legally take antipsycotics, but I'm not crazy." He said before he opened his mouth, constipating what he just said.
Everybody looked shocked but Harry was the one to speak up. "....Wot?" He questioned.
Draco just shrugged before he turned around in his seat and drove full speed at the brick wall in front of them. Everyone except Narcissa and Draco were screaming, the girls only joined in with everybody else because it was fun.
They all finally stopped screaming when the speed of the car turned back to normal and they were on the other side of the brick wall. The surroundings consisted of traditional decorations, like the other town, but here there were children running around using magic, and Veelan kids flying about with broad wings.
There were tiny shops that sold different foods and goods, and in what seemed to be the center of the town was a large mall with a parking lot full of cars.
They eventually stopped the car in a parking space that looked like it belonged to a very odd shaped building. It was decorated with golden arches and yellow and red paint.
"Alright, Draco remember to pick up your brother from school and then go straight home, you can go somewhere else afterwards but please just take Akihiko home once you get him. " She undid her seat belt and leaned over to release her children from their car seats. The Weasley parents were already out of the car before she figured out how to get them both undone. Once unbuckled, the girls excitedly ran out of the car and into the building.
This obviously didn't go unnoticed by the adults who quickly shut the car doors and ran after the over enthusiastic toddlers.
