Remember: this will be a role-play type story!
'When things are like this, they're thoughts'

Witch: alright. So, If I just... do this...
She turned around. Ringo was walking over.
Witch: Hey! Come help me with something!
Ringo: eh? Me?
Witch: yes, you!
Ringo hesitantly walked over. She knew Witch messed up a lot.
Ringo: uhm... what kind of help do you need?
Witch: just stand still. I'm going to test this on you.
Ringo: eh? No way! I don't want to be some kind of test subject-!
Witch: it'll be fine... I'm not gonna hurt you...
Ringo: ...what are you going to do then?
Witch: you'll see-!
Ringo: ...this is not good-!
Frightened and shocked, Ringo stood there. Witch threw a potion at her. It spilled all over her.
Ringo: ...what the heck?!
She then shrunk to the ground. Witch looked down.
Witch: that... wasn't supposed to happen...
She barked at her angrily. She was a dog.
Witch: it was supposed to change your voice for a half an hour... but you are a cute puppy...
Ringo growled at her.
Witch: Okay, okay! I'll turn you back! Don't hurt me! I just... need to find out how...
Ringo covered her face with the paws she had.
Witch: err... hm...
She flipped through the potion book she had.
Witch: ah-! Here! This can reverse any spell! But... of course I need ingredients...
Ringo just whined a bit. Witch scooped her up.
Witch: well, might as well take you with me. These are things you can buy-! Don't you live in a place where you buy stuff?
Ringo barked in excitement to tell her yes.
Witch: perfect-! Hm... now where...
  Amitie walked by.
Witch: hey!
Amitie: oh, it's you! Hello! What a cute puppy.
Witch: do you know the way to where this girl lives?
Amitie: what girl?
Witch: you know her-! Ringo... was it not?
Amitie: oh yes! I know! Follow me!
Witch followed her.
Amitie: here we are! This is the secret train Ms Accord made for us! This way we can cross dimensions!
Witch: 'Ringo must've come through searching for something-! Wouldn't make sense if she crossed dimensions randomly...'
Alright! Thanks for the help-!
Amitie: no problem!
Amitie waved and walked off.
Witch: she's so peculiar, that girl...
She made it to Suzuran.
Witch: ah, I remember this place! It's quite a nice one. Let's see... is there a fish shop? Need some of that...
Ringo stared at her. Quite a weird ingredient... she was hoping it wouldn't be poured on her again... also fish should probably be the last thing she got so it wouldn't go bad, but she barked because she knew Maguro was there. Though... she was hoping Witch would explain everything to him and not lie... she hoped he was there in general. She started in some direction with Witch following.
Witch: quite an energetic puppy.
They eventually got there. Ringo remembered no animals so she sat outside, hoping Maguro would walk out.
Witch: aren't you coming?
Ringo barked.
Witch: I don't understand you.
Witch picked her up. She growled and squirmed.
Witch: what's the matter?
Ringo ripped the sign off the door that said no pets.
Witch: ah... guess cause they'd eat the fish. But you didn't have to rip it...
Just then a boy walked out. He was small and skinny.
Boy: Maguro!!! A dog ripped the paper off the door.
Ringo hid behind Witch. Maguro's youngest brother was a tattletale.
Maguro: I'm coming... what's the big idea? A dog in the district... oh? It's the Witch girl...
Witch recognized the boy. She'd seen him with Ringo before... but maybe he wouldn't notice.
Witch: hey... sorry about that... my dog is quite naughty.
Ringo growled at her for lying.
The skinny boy walked inside proudly.
Maguro: dogs can't do that... but out of curiosity... what's her name?
Witch paused.
Witch: uh...
'I can't make up a name-!'
She quickly blurted "Ringo". She covered her mouth. Ringo whined and put her head on the ground.
Witch: I mean- it's funny cause we have a friend named Ringo...
Maguro stares at the dog and lifted her up.
Maguro: I dunno... she looks familiar as well... and you are a witch... what did you do?
Witch: uhm... funny story... heh... I messed up a potion... and threw it at her... and now she's a dog-
YOU'VE GOTTA HELP ME!!
Maguro: you what?! How can I help???
Witch: Help me find these things-! I needed fish as a start-!
Maguro flipped through the book and look at the ingredients.
Maguro: these are weird...
Witch: no they're not-! They're normal ingredients!
Maguro: sure... well if it'll help Ringo...
Witch stared into the book.
Witch: oh yeah-! Bad news for you... you're gonna have to take a sip of it so...
Ringo looked at the ingredients and looked disgusted. She shook her head.
Witch: wanna be a dog forever?
Ringo whined.
Witch: well then... oh wait! Or I can dip the magic wand I got in it and then point it at you- but that's gross for this poor wand.
Maguro: I bet she'd rather do that...
Witch: fine... show me around so I can grab these pronto.
Maguro: Fine by me... he went inside but came back out.
Witch: what was that for?
Maguro: telling my family I was going out.
Witch: ah-! Okay.
Maguro lifted Ringo up.
Maguro: you make a pretty cute dog, Ringo.
Ringo wagged her tail a bit, since dogs usually did that.
Maguro: Alright, follow me.
Sooner or later, they had gathered everything. They also had seemed to become friends. It was sunset.
Witch: thank you so much for helping me out.
Maguro: no prob.
Witch took out her wand and lifted everything they got into the air and immediately made a potion with it. She poured some magic dust into it.
Witch: this is much easier than before!  I love this wand.
She soon did the spell and Ringo turned to normal.
Ringo: that made me dizzy... Witch! Not ever will I be the test subject of a potion ever again-!
Witch: haha... sorry about that...
Ringo: thanks for at least turning me back... you too Maguro. We would've lost our way if it weren't for you.
Maguro: heheh... no problem!
Witch: I should be heading back before the train closes. I'll see ya!
They both waved bye.
Maguro: train?
Ringo: oh yeah, Ms Accord built a whole train for us so we can travel to Primp!
Maguro: that's so cool!
Ringo: we can head there tomorrow if you'd like.
Maguro: heh... as long as we don't get lost. Speaking of lost... it's getting dark. We will be lost if we don't head back. I'll walk you home.
Ringo: Alright. Thanks Maguro.
Maguro: no problem.
They laughed the day off as if nothing happened. Normal for those two...
Speaking of two... two people skipped around, hand in hand in the dark... will they be alright?
