Tigress watched quietly from her chair for a while until suddenly, the air around her took on a strange quality, she breathed normally for a while, the subtle changes making her irrational as she breathed. Finally with a sigh, she reached into her book bag and pulled out two small pink vials. Wincing, she stepped up to them and looked at them both in turn. "Alright, I know you're both angry, but will you drink these potions? If you don't I'm going to have to make you 'cause you're really causing more trouble then we need right now." She stared at them, pleading and warning at the same time.
"What is it!?" she asked curiously.
Sirius felt something stab into his back "Ouch! Dammit what did you throw at me?!" Sirius turned around, he meant to glare at Amanda but then he saw a little girl, a ghost girl "Shoot!" He quickly pulled a dagger out of his back, at the time it was foggy and ghost like, but it slowly turned into a real dagger with green liquid dripping from it, but his back was cut less, "Tory, what was that for? Remember last time you did that and I didn't get it out on time?" The little girl laughed, no one else could see her, but they could here her "Your mommy told me to do that" she said giggling and threw another one at him Sirius screamed in pain again and pulled it out also "Stop that!" The girl giggled some more "But its so much fun!"
"Tigress, I would but I'm a little busy at the moment" He said looking at Tory "You throw another one and I'll dig up your body and pull it all apart and feed it to your parents" He warned the ghost no one could see. She stopped giggling "You wouldn't do that Sirius black!" Sirius smirked "And why wouldn't I?"
Tigress smiled lightly, this was what she was good at, knowing things. Sighing, she looked at Amanda "It's a light memory potion designed specifically for anger, or strong emotions. It will make you forget what you are angry about, and think it's stupid to fight. It will wear off after about an hour, but it'll keep you off each others throats for now." She looked at Sirius, daring him to refuse.
"Fine" she said and took the vial and drank it. She felt weird inside. She felt a little dizzy. This was a little strange.
Tigress smiled thankfully at Amanda then continued to glare at Sirius. "Drink it now or I'll force you too. It's quite amusing from this point of view to see potions forced on someone, but not from yours. It usually consists of shoving the whole vial into your mouth..."
Sirius grabbed a potion and dumped it on the floor "Sorry, I don't just randomly take potions" he smirked. The little girl was now crying and slowly started to show herself to everyone. Sirius sighed, "I'm sorry Tory. I wouldn't do that" Sirius walked up to her and gave her the best hug possible to give to a ghost, the little girls cry softened "So you promise" Sirius smiled "I promise"
Amanda felt a little weird inside and then fell backwards still inside the bubble. Her eyes closed.
Tigress grinned at Sirius and pulled another, stronger potion of the same quality out of her bag. "I have a whole stockpile of these and more. Anyway I'll continue." She waved her wand as she spoke, the whole puddle of light pink liquid lifted and was put in an empty vial. "After the vial is shoved into your throat, with a dissipating charm on it of course, can't have you dying, another charm is used to make your muscles relax." She paused a moment before forcing the liquid into Sirius's mouth and hexing him so his mouth could not be opened until he swallowed all of it. "Or that could all be a lie to distract you..."
Sirius refused to swallow it. Instead he grabbed one of the ghost dagger things, cut himself open and let blood drip on it so it would start to become normal then dug it into Tigress arm then swallowed the stuff and became real dizzy. Tory who was now visible to everyone started to giggle again "Your really going to hurting now" she said to Tigress
Tigress yanked the dagger out of her arm, glowering at Sirius. Her arm was aching horribly already, but she didn't really care, as long as Sirius and Amanda would shut-up.
The girl laughed as Tigress' arm started to swell real big and get a bunch of little green dots "I can't wait till the part when it blows up! Then you can see the bone and everything!" she said excitedly. Sirius fell over laughing madly "look at all the pretty colors and the little butterflys"he said pointing at a table
