Malls


In the morning Ashley go up and took a bath. Then got dressed and ready. She was sure her mom would have given Will one of her credit cards by now. And if even if he had begged her to try and get out of it. Her mom would have been more than ready to let him go shopping with her.

She could remember the last time she and the great and powerful Dr. Helen Magnus had gone shopping. Half way though the shopping trip her mom was begging her to stop and could they go home couldn't help but giggle at that memory.

It was almost as bad as when Henry took her shopping at the mall for Christmas. The shopping Mall had a big crowd. Henry had almost panicked as she dragged him from shop to shop. By the time the where finished. She had was dragging Henry to the car. To drive him back to the sanctuary.

Magnus could hear Henry before they entered her office.

"Never again. I am never taking you shopping." Henry said.

"What is the matter wolf boy. can not handle the crowds?" Ashley taunted him.

"What is going on here?" Magnus shouted over the two of them

They start to shout at the same time. "No, wolf, shopping, crowds."

"Shut up both of you."

"Mom?"

"Doc?"

"That's all."

She told them to leave and they left.


Magnus saw to it that all but three chairs and the loveseat were left in the room. Then she made sure that Henry, The Big Guy, where seated in the other two chairs. Leaving only the loveseat was set up for Ashley and William. Why the other chair was hers.

Magnus, Henry and The Big Guy were all ready sitting down. When William entered the room with only loveseat open to Will. Then Ashley came in a few minutes later.

"Oh I see you saved me a seat. Thank you Will."


"Okay you two. If we can get this meeting on the road. Now we have a sighting of two Dangerous Abnormals. Named Ashley Magnus and Dr. William Zimmerman. Their have been sighted here at the sanctuary but later on we know their will be sighting at the Mall later on today. You are to stay away from them at all cost.

"Yeeeessss. Ashley found another sucker this time." Henry cheered.

"Oh do you wish to go shopping with Ashley next time?" Magnus asked.

"Noooooo." Henry backtracked.

"Okay meeting over."


Will just walked to his room to read some books and await his sentence. Ashley was happy. All she had to do was wait a few hours and Will was all hers.

Henry wanted to give Will a pat on the back. To be brave enough to go shopping with Ashley. He knock on Will's door.

"Come in Henry." Will said.

Henry came in. "How did you know it was me?" Henry asked.

"You walk quietly, besides who else would it be?"

"Ashley?"

"No. Ashley has a glide to her step to it. And when she's hunting she has almost a silent step."

"So how can you tell if she's near?"

"There is a sight, a smell or feel if you that sets her apart from you, or Magnus, The Big Guy and even Sally. You just haft to learn how to focus these sense's that's all."

"Really? That easy?"

"That's right Henry."


"Henry come on out and it's ten-thirty AM. He's mine now. Come on William let's go."

"Poor Will don`t let Ashley drive if you value your life. Believe me I know." Henry said.


Ashley walked ahead Shaking her hips drawing Will behind her. Like a moth to a flame.

She led Will down to the garage. Took the Keys to the sports car. She got in one side and told him to get in the other side.

"Do you have my mom's credit card she gave you." Ashley said.

"Yep that's right. I remembered it." Will said.

She turned the sports car over and floored the gas pedal. The sports car peeled out leavening tire marks on the floor on the garage floor.

The sports car roared down and out of the front gate. And Ashley made a right turn and floored it.

"Ashley are you trying to kill us. Oh Henry was right I never should have let you drive."

"Live and Learn William and know you are mine for the rest of the day. TO THE MALL!"

Will knew then why Henry didn't want to go shopping with Ashley.

Her driving would have struck fear into the hearts of most pro race car drivers.

She drove though most yellow lights and some that where just turning red with no fear. Will had could no long look. So he just closed his eyes and prayed, that they would make to the mall in one piece.

Ashley glanced at Will. Then began to laugh wildly at what she saw.

About twenty minutes later after the wild ride began it ended with a smooth turn into the large mall parking lot.

Will open one eye and peeked at the lot around them. They had made it to the mall in one piece. By some miracle.

Ashley found a parking place near the entrance to the mall. Then they got out of the car.

"Now for my favorite part the shopping." She said.

"Ugh." He said as he got out. Just glad to be alive after that ride.


"Like my driving right. Then you will love my shopping." Then she led Will into the Mall.

Sorry this ran a little on the long side so I will stop here and get to the shopping next week. Hope you had as much fun reading this as I had writing it. Till next week.
