A/N - If you finish reading this and are wondering, "Where the hell did some of that stuff come from, it's because we wrote this chapter in extreme boredom very late at night.

Luin's jaw dropped and she went pale. "Are you sure?" she asked nervously. "I - I mean you wouldn't particularly MIND if you were turned into something - well - just for example - a giant chicken?"
Ferri shrugged. "Dunno until I am one."
"Let's say this giant chicken was green, with pink speckles. THEN would you mind?"
"Are you trying to say something, Luin?" Ferri asked suspiciously.
"Let's just say - I didn't mean to!" Luin screamed as she took off, running from the evil 12-foot tall green chicken (with pink speckles).
Ferri got downright pissed off. "FIRST IT'S A FERRET, NOW I'M A BIG CHICKEN! I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF THIS SH!*!!"
"I said I'm sorry!" Luin called over her shoulder, over halfway to the woods. "I promise I won't mess you up anymore! I swear by popcorn, the Sugar-god, and Legolas!"
"RIGHT!"
Ferri had enough elfy magic in her to at least turn herself back into a ferret. Ferri used it and turned into a ferret again, but again, she could only speak Ferret.
Ferri chittered at herself, mostly calling herself a bozo for believing an evil elf, but also how she had shared the serum with her.
"Ooo, a pretty shiny bouncy ball!" Luin said happily. She jumped and bounced off the (nonexistent) shiny green bouncy ball, and bounced right bak towards the angry ferret-who-was-a-chicken-but-was-now-a-ferret-again creature.
"Uh-oh."
Ferri let out a growl and stopped Luin with elf magic, walked towards her, gave her a Ferret to Elvish dictionary, stepped outta the way, and undid her holding spell. Luin kept on going right past her.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!" THUD!
"Ow," said Luin. "Look at all da funky liddle monkeys flying around my head." (She was still hallucinating, if you couldn't tell)
Then she lay back and watched the little monkeys change colour, while Ferri was up to who-knew-what mischief.
Ferri was already done her mischief making for the day. She was gonna make Luin make her talk again, then remembered she'd probably outlive the effect of the stuff Luin gave her by thousands of year. So she made the Ferret to Elvish dictionary, seeing as how they're about the only languages she's fluent in, she figured, "What the hell! At least that dumb elf can understand me!"
Correction: dumb, currently very HIGH elf. Luin was singing quietly to herself in an off-key voice about flying monkeys and bugs. Slowly, the funky serum wore off and she came to herself with a start.
"Darn! Gotta get Legolas! Race ya, Ferri!" she called, jumping woozily to her feet and weaving off unsteadily.
Ferri injected her with more serum so she could destroy more things around where they were.
"Aah! Evil talking trees! They're tryin' ta steal Legolas from me! DIE EVIL TREES!" Luin screamed, grabbing the garden hose and thwacking the trees with it.
Ferri grinned evilly as she watched Luin beat the trees with the garden hose. "Damn, that's some STRONG sh!*!!"
"DIE! DIE! DIE!" Luin bellowed, thwacking the trees harder. "LEGOLAS IS MINE!" Suddenly Luin threw aside the garden hose, and started gnawing on a tree like a beaver. "Di- Ack ! Ptui!" Luin spit out bark. "THAT WAS DELIBERATE!"
"Stupid elf. Heeeyy..." Ferri grinned evilly again. "Now I have a plan, a plan for Revenge! Ha ha ha!" (She said this all in Ferret) Ferri snuck away, not only to make more serum to keep Luin hugh, she also had to plot her revenge.
Luin continued gnawing at the tree, stopping every now and then to spit out more bark. "Ha! Just about killed this one!" she crowed, and then the tree tipped over on top of her.
"Uh-oh."
Ferri saw the tree begin to fall. "Oh no! If the tree squishes her I can't have my revenge! CHARGE!" Ferri screamed at the top of her ferrety lungs. Ferri grabbed lots of the serum and dashed with the greatest of ferret speed and pushed Luin out of the way - and got her tail stuck under the tree.
"OWWW!" She screamed in Ferret. (Fortunately, "ow" is said the same way in Ferret and Elvish.)
"Uh-oh," Luin said yet again, not totally sure what was going on - but she knew it was bad. "Hey, there's a funny ferret stuck under the tree screaming bloody murder." In actuality, Ferri was swearing yet again. "Poor thing!" Luin sprinted to heave the tree off Ferri (remember, she gave herself the superstrength potion earlier).
Ferri pulled her tail out of the hole made by the tree.
"Oh, my tail! It's all hurt now, and crooked-looking," Ferri whined between Ferret and Elvish.
Ferri got some sticks, and a bunch of band-aids and prepared to make a splint for her tail. She crunched her tail back into place, and with a lot of ferret swears, she managed to put it into a splint. Unfortunately for Ferri, it didn't go 'totally' back into place. It was kinda bent into a lightning bolt-like break now, so she only made it worse.
Sighing, Luin corrected the splint and made it go straight - for a second.
After some difficulty the two managed to splint it up fairly straight, and Luin also redid the spell that let Ferri talk Elvish, instead of Ferretish.
Then she gave Ferri a sleeping pill, so Luin could a) rest her ears from ferret-swears, b) go rescue Legolas without Ferri knowing it, and c) make sure Ferri healed properly.
So once the splinted-up ferret was conked out, Luin snuck off on a Legolas-hunt.
"ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ...*yawn*...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz" Ferri snored.
