Prompt requested from my tumblr. Sorry it's been a while, guys. I've been in the slumps lately and had a lot of other things to finish up...still haven't finished those either. Anyways, here's a little something to cope for my absence. Maybe this'll help me out.
Amy trekked nervously to Tails hub, her heart beat racing faster the closer she got. She felt bad about what she was planning to do, but no one would ever know…right?
She knocked on the door twice and waited until Tails soon opened it to reveal himself eating a pop sickle, the contents of it covering his muzzle almost entirely.
"Whatsu Ahwy?" He asked through the pop sickle.
Seeing the displeasure on Amy's face, Tails took the pop sickle out of his mouth, wiped his muzzle a little and scratched his head from embarrassment. "Heh, sorry about that. Um, come on in." He let her inside.
"Sorry for bothering you like this, Tails. I just…need a favor." She shuffled her feet nervously as she looked down to avoid his eyes.
Tails raised a brow. "Like what?"
She looked to the side. "Well…it's kinda…personal, so I can only say so much." She said as she finally looked up to face him.
"Okay, what is it? Maybe I can help."
"Uh, yeah, sure ya can. Uh, ya see, it's this…potion…that I uh…found in one of my old legendary tale books and I was wondering if you could help me…mix it up?" She said the last part almost as if she was afraid to.
Tails stared at her curiously for a few seconds before speaking. "What kind of potion is it?"
Darn. Of course he'd want an explanation. "Uh, it's…it's…a…aaaaa long-lasting beauty enhancer, yeah!" Good one, Amy.
Tails raised a brow. "…What would you need that for?"
Amy looked annoyed and crossed her arms. "I told you, it's personal. Now, are you gonna help me or not?"
Tails felt unsure for a moment until he nodded and shrugged. "Okay, I guess. So, where's the potion recipe?" He said as he went to sit behind the counter.
Amy slipped a hand behind her back and pulled out a small half-folded sheet of paper and handed it to Tails who looked it over carefully before placing it down on the counter and getting up to rummage through his cabinets.
Amy watched in silence, starting to have second thoughts about her plan. She shrugged them off though and watched as Tails came back with as many as a dozen materials in his arms. He gently placed them on the counter and slapped his hands together back and forth.
"Amy, I don't know why you'd need something like this, but if you say it's personal then I guess I have no right to judge. But, personally, I think you look fine just the way you are." He ended with a reassuring smile.
Amy smiled back, genuinely touched. "Gosh, Tails, that's really sweet of you to say, but it's…a little more complicated than that. It's not…for me exactly, but that's all I can say."
Tails frowned and placed his hands on his hips. "Well, if you say so. Alright, time to get started. I can't say I've had a hand at brewing up a potion of any kind, but if it's anything like how my chemicals work, then it shouldn't be that hard." He stated confidently.
Amy seemed a bit worried by this and hoped that she wasn't making a huge mistake right now.
After a good 20 minutes of mixing and making, also with the nonstop flow of questions from Tails on the matter, the potion was finally complete. Amy stared at its contents that turned out to be a pinkish/reddish color, seeming to be a raspberry drink. She picked it up slowly, still examining it, and sat it down in front of her.
"Well, there's your potion. I hope it works for whoever it's for…for whatever reason." Tails remarked.
Amy smiled at him before turning back to the tube.
Tails lowered a brow and titled his head. "Uh…something wrong?"
Amy continued to stare at it.
"Amy…Amy…AMY?!"
"H-huh? What?"
"I said is something wrong? You're just…staring at it."
She blinked. "Oh…oh no no no, it's nothing. I was just thinking. Uh, thanks by the way. Now to go put this in something more suitable."
Tails stared at her before he just shrugged and walked to the couch and turned on the TV.
Amy sighed and was about to get up until the door burst open to reveal Sonic with a chili dog in his hand. Startled, she almost dropped the tube and glared at Sonic as he closed the door.
"Heya, Tails, Amy. Whatcha got there?" He said as he pointed at the tube.
Great Amy gulped and looked away nervously. "Uh…it's..it's something Tails and I wipped up, heh." Amy looked over her shoulder to see if Tails was listening, but his attention was dead set on whatever was on the television.
Sonic walked towards her and examined the tube up and down. "Is it…juice? In a tube?"
Amy looked back at Sonic and thought of something. "Uh…you could call it that. It's certainly edible. Would you…like to tr-" Wait, Amy. This isn't the right time to do this. If Tails sees that Sonic has just suddenly fallen deeply in love with you, he'll realize that the potion is gone and figure it all out on the spot! Think think! "errrr try it some other time? I, uh, have to give it a test taste first…when I get home of course."
"Why wait? Besides, I sure could use a tasty beverage to go along with this chili dog.
Amy hesitated and started to sweat nervously. If we both drink it, then the effect would be irreversible, and I don't even want to imagine how that will turn out…well, it could be pretty swee- no! I can't! "Uhhhh, I don't think that's a good idea."
"Aw, come on, Amy. Just one sip." Sonic advanced towards her, reaching for the tube.
"Sonic, no, there's not even enough for you! Cut it out!" She pulled the tube away, guarding it with her other hand.
"Stop being stingy, Amy. I thought you were the sharing type." He teased as he continued to reach for the tube over her shoulder. Tails looked over at the two and cocked a brow.
"T-this is different! Would you j-just…" she pushed him away slightly and went under his arm to escape. "Ha! Now who's-" she gasped when Sonic suddenly dashed towards her, and out of panic, she turned her head and drunk the potion…facing Tails' direction.
Everything went swirly for a few seconds until her pupils turned into heart-shaped orbs looking directly at Tails. Tails looked at her in confusion, wondering if the potion had actually taken affect. In his mind, he wasn't surprised there hadn't been a change in her appearance since she was already pretty, but he didn't expect to see her acting the way she was now.
"Uh…Amy? You okay?"
Amy smiled wide and nodded her head as she started to walk slowly in a trance towards him. Sonic gulped down his chili dog as he watched her in confusion as well as Tails. She stopped in front of him and stared at him, still with a wide smile and heart-shaped orbs.
"Uh, what's wrong with your eye- ack!" She grabbed him in a tight hug while giggling and nuzzling his head with hers. Tails' face was mixed with horror and confusion as was Sonic's.
"Hehehe, you're so adorable, Tails! I don't know why I haven't noticed it before, but now that I have, I could cuddle you all day long! Hehehe."
Sonic and Tails exchanged horror-stricken glances. Amy started hugging him tighter and tighter until he was practically buried in her chest area. He couldn't help but blush at such discomfort. He looked to Sonic who's eyes were practically bulging out of his head at the scene.
"Uhhh, a little HELP HERE!"
Sonic snapped back to reality and tried prying Tails away from Amy, but to no avail, she wouldn't release him. Her grip loosened enough for him to talk though.
"I don't understand. I didn't drink the potion, so why is she suddenly super attracted to me?!" Tails shrieked.
"Potion? I thought it was a drink. At least that's what she told me…kind of."
"Now why on earth would she say that? And, surely you didn't think a drink would actually be in a test tube, Sonic."
"Uh…that's not the point, the point is what is she doing with a potion anyways?"
"She said it, ugh, she said it was for someone." Amy began nuzzling his head again, continuing to giggle.
"O-kaaaay. Any idea who?"
"Nope. Hmmm, hey, mind passing me that sheet on the counter there? Maybe I missed something."
Sonic did as told and handed Tails the sheet. It was still folded, but when Tails tried to unfold it, it wouldn't do so. He turned it over and saw that it was taped to the back of it. Taking the tape off, his eyes widened when he saw the words 'Love Potion Recipe' written under it.
"Well, would ya look at that."
"What?"
"This isn't a beauty enhancer. It's a love potion! But who on earth would Amy have to give this to?" Tails looked up at Amy who was still in a trance.
Sonic lowered a brow and thought about it until his eyes widened in realization. She almost offered it to me…but changed her mind all of a sudden…as if…so it would make sense that she'd tell me it was a drink instead of…no way. Sonic looked at Amy in disbelief while she continued to nuzzle Tails' head. For a second, he almost felt a little jealous, but shrugged it off.
"Tails, I think I might know who it was really meant for. But first, let's get her back to normal. This is really creeping me out."
"You can say that again." Tails remarked, his face matching his tone.
They went back to Amy's hub and retrieved the book Amy found the potion in. Turns out the potion only lasted 24 hours, so unfortunately, Tails had to wait it out for several more hours until she came to. Amy stuck to Tails all night on the couch as Sonic monitored her from the swing couch. When morning came, she was back to herself, but confused. They explained everything.
"I did all that?! Oh my gosh, Tails, I am so sorry!" She gasped as she cupped her cheeks in embarrassment.
"Eh, it's okay, I guess." He said as he scratched his head.
"Well, now that you're back to your good ol' self again, ya mind explaining what you wanted with a love potion?" Sonic said as he placed an elbow on his knee and smirked at her.
"Uhhhh, how'd you find that out?"
"We had to figure out some way to turn ya back. Turns out we didn't have to do a thing. Now, stop avoiding the question. Who's the love potion for, hm?" Sonic leaned forward and glared at her sorely.
Amy gulped and looked at the door. She wanted to escape this interrogation so badly, but knew Sonic would be faster and block her way. Oh, who cares?! I'm getting out of here! Amy dashed for the door and, surprisingly, wasn't blocked or anything. She was free. Not looking back, she ran on home, relieved that she didn't have to put up a fight. That was close. Guess I've learned my lesson. I'm never touching potions again…
"Sonic, you're not gonna go after her?" Tails asked.
Sonic leaned back and rested his hands behind his head. "Nah. Let her be. I'm sure she has her reasons. Obviously it's not for us to know, so…we'll let it slide this time."
Tails thought for a moment and shrugged, going with it. "If you say so."
Sonic knew. And that's the only person who needed to know. As far as Amy was concerned, she had won, but on the contrary, she was just let off the hook…for now.
