Chapter 1:

My Bestie Needs to Buy Magic-Proof Panties

My Bestie Is A Shapeshifting Mermaid That Needs To Do Her Own Laundry


Elora Magdove brushed back her luscious red hair once more; the young ladies' routine now so engraved into her head that she ran solely on instincts. The completely naked elf stared at her reflection while adding the final touches to her hair, a purple bow. With the biggest time restraint to her morning over, Elora went to gather her uniform. She first slipped into a corselette made from cotton and leather, next she opened her underwear drawer... her jaw dropped upon seeing the small square space completely empty. She turned over to her roommate, still asleep. "ROSE!" Elora yelled. Frightening the Shapeshifting mermaid so much that she leaped out of bed and saluted Elora before relaxing. "Ha. Thought you were the Captain for a second there."

"What happened to my last pair of panties?" Elora asked with her arms folded.

"I ran out yesterday and borrowed them," she casually replied while pointing at a pile of dirty underwear.

"Why didn't you ask me? If I knew you had my last pair then I wouldn't have left laundry so late," Elora grunted while going to the window where her clothes were hanging out to dry, "SEE! They're still wet," she exclaimed after touching the fabric.

"Pfft. They would have gotten wet after seeing your boyfriend," Rose winked.

Elora's entire face went bright red, "Can you stop joking about that!" She said as her eyes squinted angrily.

"Can't. You're like my younger sister, and as the oldest, it's my responsibility to mercilessly tease you," Rose laughed as she poked her tongue out playfully.

"This is a serious problem!" Elora cried while stomping her foot. However, Rose couldn't resist the temptation to tease her friend once more as she noticed her naked butt jiggle and shake in the mirrors reflection, "I'll never understand how someone like you can have such a fat ass when you exercise all the time."

Elora threw her head back in frustration, then picked up a robe to wear before continuing, "Are you listening to me? I'm out of panties and class starts soon."

"So am I. Guess we're both going commando today," Rose said while using finger quotations; a sly smile encapsulated her face.

"I can't go out in public without panties! I haven't done that since I was a kid," Elora panicked.

"What are you so worried about? If we had to wear the skirt uniform I could see a problem, but we have field training, so gotta wear the practical stuff," Rose said as she pointed at the leggings they had to wear in accordance to the guidelines set out by Bonisteed Military Academy.

"I know, but having them on feels like an extra bit of protection for me," she replied with a sad expression.

"They're just a triangular piece of cloth you wear around your butt. Not like they're magical," Rose laughed, prompting Elora to give off an awkward smile. "Wait... don't tell me you enchanted your panties?"

Elora nodded. "Placed a muddle charm on every single pair. That way I can trick people into thinking they're in a dream if they open the door while I'm dressing."

"Are you that paranoid about someone randomly walking into our room and catching a glimpse of you half-nude?" Rose asked to which Elora nodded. "That has to be the dumbest phobia I've ever heard. For starters, who enters a room without knocking? It's plain rude, and they honestly deserve to be kicked out the window if anyone ever tried that. Second, you lock the door, anyway."

"I know, but... hey! We're getting way off topic from our underwear issue. This... why can't you ever do your own laundry!?" Elora said with a hiss in her voice.

"It's such a pain washing panties by hand. At least we can use magic to clean our uniforms," Rose replied.

"Then buy the magic-proof panties!"

"I don't have that kind of gold laying around."

Elora and Rose continued arguing for the rest of the morning as the sounds of footsteps outside their room went unnoticed. With their morning classes about to begin, the first bell rang. "CRAP!" Elora screamed as she ran over to grab her uniform, "We're going to be late."

"Relax, will ya," Rose said as Elora tried forcing her toned legs into her tight, leather leggings. "It's Jovadol we're talking about here. We give him any old excuse for why we're late. Even if he doesn't believe us he won't care that much."

Elora suddenly let go of her leggings as they fell to her ankles. "But I don't want to disappoint him."

"Wow! You really do like him."

"I mean, yeah, I've told you this before. He's handsome, kind, and funny," Elora replied as she blushed.

"He's also married. Didn't think of you as the mistress type, but hey, probably explains why you shave down there," Rose said while pointing at Elora's naked crotch.

Elora immediately used both hands to cover up her lady bits while turning her hips to the side. "I don't shave my downstairs for him! I do it because I could meet my future husband at any stage, so I need to be prepared."

"You need to get laid, girl. That dumb virgin brain is making you think fairytale romances are real."

"I'm not delusional! That's why I'm taking care when choosing a partner," she explained.

"Speaking of which, how many hearts have you rejected?" Rose asked.

"I don't know. Stopped counting after eighty," she replied with her head held low.

"See. This obsession to find the perfect partner has blinded you. I bet out of those eighty rejections there was one decent person you could have spent the rest of your life with."

"What's wrong with being cautious?" Elora asked.

"There's a difference. But maybe you just need a push in the right direction," Rose said as she smiled.

"What's going on in that fishy brain of yours?"

"A wager," Rose suggested, "You find your future partner before graduation and I'll buy you a pair of the most expensive panties I can afford."

"And if I lose?"

"You do my laundry for the next ten years," Rose replied.

"How's that a fair bet!?" She protested.

Elora and Rose continued arguing until a knock on the door alerted them. "Anybody home? The professor sent me to check on you," a soft voice asked.

"Umm, yeah," Elora said as she quickly thought of a lie, "Rose had a minor case of land sickness, so I was helping her with that."

"I'll let the professor know," the voice replied as she walked off.

"Way to think on your feet," Rose smiled.

"Let's hurry up and go," she said while bending over to pull up her pants, squeezing her curvaceous hips into the durable material.

Eventually, Elora and Rose made their way to the open field where Professor Jovadol stood waiting; his arms folded, "Land sickness, hey?"

"Yeah, all better now," Rose quickly said.

Jovadol gave off a look that screamed "stop lying to me!" He then instructed Rose to poke her tongue out. Very hesitantly, Rose slowly stuck her tongue out. "Must have been an extremely, extremely minor case, because I see no discoloration," Jovadol said, referring to a side-effect from land sickness.

"It actually happened last night, and this morning I still felt a little shaken, but I'd gotta over it fast," Rose lied.

"This has got to stop Rose. You're a smart and capable Formwandler, but you're going to get kicked out of the academy if you keep this up. And you, Elora, I expected you of all people to be a little bit more responsible. Next time, be honest with me."

Elora suddenly thought, "Yeah... there's no way in hell I'm telling you we're late because Rose stole my last pair of panties."

"Now, since you've both finally made it, it's time you both got your special reward," Jovadol said in a very sarcastic tone.

Professor Jovadol escorted Elora and Rose to the largest obstacle course at the academy, where a group of fellow recruits stood laughing. "Look who's in trouble," one yelled in a mocking tone.

"Shut up, unless you want to join them," Jovadol said in a stern voice; the entire class immediately fell silent. "Time wasting is a serious issue at Bonisteed Military Academy. ROSE!"

"Yes, sir."

"Why were you recruited to this school?" He asked her.

"I'm a linguistic from Aquenaide. I was sent here to learn diplomacy so I can become an ambassador between our worlds," she responded.

"And do you think the king or queen of any land would appreciate you being late?"

"No, sir."

"Elora!" Jovadol yelled while turning his head to face her.

"Yes, sir."

"Same question."

"I was born in the city, where I took the Arcane Marrilynne Test at a young age. After the mana cost portion of the test, they freaked out, then placed me in a specialist school for magic-users. I was recruited to the academy to learn how to be an officer for the army."

"We're fighting a massive war right now. Do you think South Triuze will wait back as you catch up on your beauty rest?"

"No, sir," Elora replied as she thought, "Wait a moment... "beauty rest"? Holy crap! Did Jovadol just low-key call me beautiful?"

"Now, it pains me to have to do this to any of my recruits, but you need to learn this isn't tolerated. I want you to do three laps of the obstacle course," he said. Simultaneously, Elora and Rose both uttered "three laps" while looking at the behemoth-sized course. Jovadol added, "And I'll add an extra lap for every day you're late. Are we clear?"

"Yes, sir."

With the two ladies lining up at the start, Elora whispered in a sarcastic tone, "Thanks for getting me into trouble."

"You're welcome," Rose said with a cheerful smile.

Before Jovadol gave the signal to begin, he added one last detail, "We're all a team here. That's why nobody leaves until Rose and Elora complete the course."

"What about next class, sir?" One recruit asked.

"Then they better complete the three laps before the next bell. Otherwise, everyone is going to be late," Jovadol chuckled.

Suddenly, waves of support and cheering echoed out from the fellow recruits, "Don't let us down!" One cried out.

"Go!" Professor Jovadol shouted while pointing at the course. Elora and Rose sprinted at the first obstacle, then leaped at a rope to climb up the wall. Elora made it over first, then ran at the next wall. After completing the first part, Elora turned to a pile of rounded boulders, then started rolling one of them to the top of a slight incline. "This is trouble. I'm not wearing underwear and the whole class is watching me, including Jovadol. If there was ever a time for my leggings to split, it would be now," Elora thought to herself. The fact that she wasn't wearing any underwear started playing on Elora's mind, "Everyone will think I'm a pantyless harlot that sleeps around. I gotta get this done fast."

With only one lap left, Elora managed to overlap Rose on the wall part of the obstacle course. "Could have waited for me," Rose growled in annoyance.

"Sorry, but I can't take the risk of something embarrassing happening," she replied.

"You mean like this," Rose said as she tugged on Elora's foot, causing her to lose balance and fall off the wall. With Elora tumbling off the obstacle, she reached out to grab hold of something in a desperate attempt to stop herself from falling. Fortunately, Elora did manage to latch onto something.

"Hey! What are you doing?" Rose said nervously. Elora looked up to see what stopped her fall - discovering that she'd caught hold the waistband of Rose's leggings. "L-let go!" Rose cried.

"But I'll fall if I let go."

"My pants will fall down if you don't!" Rose cried as part of her buttcrack was already exposed to her fellow recruits, most of them laughing hysterically at the unusual situation.

"Serves you right for that dirty trick," Elora replied.

"It was a joke. Please don't expose my bare butt to the whole class!" Rose yelled as she tried shaking Elora off. Unfortunately for Rose, her actions made matters worse as with each shake, her pants slipped further down her hips. "P-please let go," Rose said once again, but before Elora could respond it was too late. Elora brought Rose's pants down to her ankles as both ladies fell off the wall to splash into a pile of mud. At this stage, everyone witnessing was consumed by hysterical laughter, even Professor Jovadol. Sensing something in her hands, Elora wiped the mud away to find she was now holding Rose's leggings, without her in them. Rose quickly snatched her pants back, then ran off in the direction of her room. Jovadol immediately dismissed his recruits, then stopped Elora before she could vacate, "I'm disappointed you did that."

"It was an accident! I wouldn't pull down her leggings on purpose."

Jovadol let out a small giggle, then said, "I wasn't talking about that. You left your friend behind, why?"

"I wanted to get it done fast," she replied.

"Why? What good would that have done? You still wouldn't be able to leave until she finished. I thought someone like you would have encouraged her."

Elora wanted to protest, but she knew Jovadol was right, "That girl deserves better from me. She might be annoying, immature, and lazy, but she's always defended me and stood by my side." Elora remembered back to all the times Rose would defend her from bullying taunts.

"I don't want to see Rose kicked out of the academy because she becomes disinterested. And I think you want the same," Jovadol stated.

"I do," Elora said with a sigh.

After her conversation with Jovadol, Elora wanted to apologize to Rose, however, the second bell sounded as Elora went to her next class. The image of Rose running off with her face covered haunted Elora each time she closed her eyes. She begged for the day to be over as focusing on schoolwork became difficult. Eventually, the last bell sounded to signify the day over. Elora ran back to their room, finding Rose in her mermaid form, resting in a metal tub full of saltwater.

"You regenerating?" Elora asked in an awkward attempt to start a conversation. Rose glared at Elora, then turned her head while pouting. "I want to say 'sorry' for earlier. I'm very sorry I pulled down your pants." Rose continued ignoring Elora, until she heard, "And I'm sorry I went ahead of you on the obstacle course. You're right, I should have waited for you."

Rose looked back at Elora as a smile slowly grew across her face, "Thank you. That's what I was pissed at you for. Yanking my pants down in front of the class isn't the worst thing that's happened to me. I can get over a shameful moment or two, but friendship is what matters to me."

"I'm so happy to hear you say that," Elora replied as she walked over to grab a dry pair of underwear, quickly stripping out of her uniform to slip into a fresh pair of panties, "Can't believe how naked I feel without this triangular piece of cloth around my butt," Elora exclaimed while looking down at the cute purple design with a small bow.

"Can you grab my power ring?" Rose asked while pointing at the magical object.

"Are you serious? You can reach it," Elora reacted while pointing at the table in front of the bathtub.

"But if I lean over you'll see my boobs. You've already seen my butt today, and now you want to see my boobs. Geez, you're such a pervert," Rose said while holding her arm up against her breast to conceal them.

"I see them all the time," Elora replied while walking over to hand over the power ring over, "They're not that special."

Elora turned her back to Rose for a brief moment, then felt magical energy around the waistband of her panties. Elora's eyes widened as she anticipated what was about to happen next. "Don't you do it!" Elora cried, "These are my favorite pair!"

"Sorry, El. Don't take this personally, but I still need revenge after the ass-flash incident. Also, what do you mean by "They're not that special"?" Rose said as mana permeated from the power ring attached to her hand.

"I lied, I lied!" Elora cried, "They're amazing! I wish I had boobs like yours."

"Nice try, but that's an obvious lie," Rose said while quickly glancing at Elora's chest, then her own. "Lot more perky," she quietly uttered while jolting her arm upwards - causing Elora's underwear to ride up into her butt-cheeks. The discomfort caused Elora to cry out in pain as she tried pulling her underwear down in a losing battle against Rose's magic — especially since the mermaid was at full-power while sitting in the saltwater. Rose continued yanking Elora's panties upwards as the unholy wedgie lifted Elora off the ground - causing her to howl in pain. Rose let go as Elora dropped to her knees, her body shaking from the violation against her butt-cheeks. Next moment, two male recruits charged into the bedroom without hesitation, "We heard scream-ing..." one said before realizing Elora was pulling underwear out of her buttcrack. "We're sorry! Please forgive us, we'll leave right away."

"No. Wait here please," she told them. The two recruits had no problem with staying in the room while gazing upon the beautiful, half-naked elf. Suddenly, Elora focused all her magical energy into her underwear, activating the enchantment, causing a beam of orange light to shine out, bedazzling everyone in view.

"What was I doing?" One of the male recruits asked. "Yeah, what was I doing?" His friend asked as well.

"You were about to go to bed and have an inappropriate dream about seeing me in my underwear," Elora told them.

"Oh, yeah," both of them said while walking off.

"What about me, what was I about to do?" Rose asked Elora, as she too fell victim to the muddler charm.

Feeling a little surprised, Elora took a short moment to think up a scenario, "You were about to have a dream where you did all my laundry."

"Oh, yeah," Rose said as her head tilted back, her eyes coming to a full rest.

"I'm dumbfounded... You seriously didn't close your eyes, even after I told you about my enchanted panties? Sorry Rose, brought this upon yourself, bestie."
