"Nice work!", Elisa said with a grin directed at me. "Now, that outfit is coming to a good use, and I wonder how Blaze would say if he saw you wearing this?", I teased mercilessly.
"You're enjoying this, aren't ya?", Elisa snorted, glaring at me halfheartedly. I smirked, and I then saw Xanatos fighting with Goliath. "Just give up!", Xanatos snapped out with a grin.
Love was out to get me
That's the way it seemed
Disappointment haunted all of my dreams
"I can't understand what you are saying!", Xanatos said with a frustrated growl.
Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
Goliath then grabbed Xanatos, and threw him to the ground. "Okay, I have had enough!", Xanatos said, looking mad as he aimed his blaster at them. "Ah...ah...ah..ACHOOO!", I sneezed, and I saw that I had made Xanatos' armor disappear as he was now wearing his regular clothes, but he still had his blaster in his hand.
"I got to admit that I'm impressed.", Xanatos said with a raised eyebrow, and then we heard growling. "What the?", Xanatos said in confusion before a thing latched onto his face, and I saw that it was Bronx.
"Bronx! What is he doing here?", Elisa asked in shock and bewilderment. "He must have followed us.", Broadway said with a shrug.
I'm in love, and I'm a believer
I couldn't leave her if I tried
Goliath then saw Xanatos drop his blaster, and he went over to grab it, and he destroyed the blaster. Xanatos then grabbed Bronx and threw him off, and Hudson picked him up.
"I can't believe I lost again to you all!", Xanatos said with a infuriated look. "You better believe it.", Elisa said with a grin, unconsciously posing in a favorite Catwoman pose.
"This will show you not to..ah..ah..ACHOOO!", I sneezed viciously, and I rubbed my nose lightly. I then heard everyone laughing. "What's so funny, guys?", I asked in confusion.
"Look at what your sneeze did to Xanatos!", Elisa said, pointing to something behind me. I turned around, and I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I had turned Xanatos into a tiny chihuahua!
"Oh, my god!", I laughed uproariously as I held my sides as I saw Xanatos yip in shock as he beheld his paws and tiny size. His pelt is raven black, with his underbelly a peach tan, and his eyes remain dark brown, and to finish, he's wearing a gray collar.
"Oh, my gosh! That's so fitting for him!", Broadway roared in laughter. "A good look, indeed.", Hudson chuckled with snips of laughter.
"Now, as a dog, his ego is too big for him now!", Elisa laughed merrily.
I thought love was more or less a giving thing
The more I gave the less I got, oh yeah
What's the use in tryin'
"I agree with all of you!", I said still laughing. I was laughing so hard that I leaned against Goliath, and I then saw Xanatos giving a glare, but it only made him look cute. "Okay, let's go.", I said, calming down with rare snippets of snickering laughter.
"Wait, shouldn't we turn Xanatos back to normal? Even though he is our enemy, we can't leave him like this.", Elisa said, looking conflicted. "Don't worry, like I said, the spell will wear off after I take the herb.", I said to them, waving a hand casually with a grin.
All you get is pain
When I wanted sunshine, I got rain
Goliath then picked me up, and I saw Broadway pick up Elisa, and Hudson still had the puppy Bronx in his arms. We all then flew off, and I could hear Xanatos barking at us in anger and humiliation. We then made it back to the clock tower, and I saw Morgan sitting on the couch, and she then noticed Bronx.
"Bronx, there you are! Did you sneak off, you little trouble maker?", Morgan shook her head as she cooed as she went over to grab Bronx. "Apparently, he did.", I said with a chuckle.
"Please tell us that Draven is back.", Elisa asked desperately. "I'm afraid not.", Morgan said, frowning mightily with a shake of her head.
"What!? We need him now!", Elisa said with a groan. "Are you kidding me? It's getting itchy on me!", Broadway muttered.
"!tiaw attog ew woN .taerg ,hO", Lexington snapped in frustration. (Oh, great. Now we gotta wait!) "We just have to be patient, my friends.", Hudson spoke gently and wisely.
The sweet caress of twilight
There's magic everywhere
Then we heard something as I realized that he is singing 'Can you feel the love tonight?', and I turned around to see Draven. "Draven, thank god you're here!", I called out in relief. "I found the herb. Is everyone alright? You all look a bit worn out.", Draven asked with a tilt of his head in concern.
"We just came back from fighting Xanatos.", Elisa said with a glare, crossing her arms in defiant anger. "Really?", Draven asked in surprise.
"Yes, but the good news for us is that Xanatos is stuck as a dog.", Hudson smirked brightly. "!ti devol evah dluow uoY .lla ti dessim uoY", Lexington snickered happily with a worn out smile. (You missed it all. You would have loved it!)
And with all this romantic atmosphere
Disaster's in the air
"It is true what Sally said about what her sneezing did to each of you.", Draven said in amazement as he stared at all the Gargoyles. "Just make Sally the damn soup so she can be cured!", Elisa said with a snarl.
"Then I don't have to speak like this anymore.", Hudson nodded in agreement. "!niaga lamron klat ot kcab og nac I", Lexington gestured to himself. (I can go back to talk normal again!)
Can you feel the love tonight
The peace the evening brings
"Okay, I'll do it now.", Draven said, surrendering his hands in understanding as Brooklyn mewed happily, and Bronx barked. We were all waiting for Draven to finish making the soup, and everyone was getting impatient.
"How long is it going to take for him to finish?!", Elisa said, looking righteously upset. "Elisa, cool down. We're pretty lucky compared to Lexington, Goliath, and Brooklyn.", Broadway comforted Elisa, wanting her to feel better.
"Even my disability is better than Goliath's disability, no offense.", Hudson spoke, glancing at Goliath, who shrugged, waving a hand lightly. ".emityna neppah nac sgniht dab ro dooG .thgir si nosduH", Lexington smiled. (Hudson is right. Good or bad things can happen anytime.)
The world for once in perfect harmony
With all its living things
"We all have to wait, guys.", I said, then I saw Draven walk over to me with a bowl in his hands. "Here you go, Sally." Draven said as he handed me the soup. I then started to drink it, and soon enough, I was finished.
"Well, now you finished the soup, but why hasn't the spell worn off?", Elisa asked in confusion. "It will take a few hours until she is completely cured.", Draven said with a sheepish smile.
"You gotta be kidding me. We have to wait more?!", Elisa said, now looking pissed off. "Oh, boy. Even the hat is getting itchy, and I can't get it off!", Broadway moaned.
"We have to be more patient, everyone.", Hudson looked at everybody sternly. "?siht ekil eb ew tsum regnol hcum woH", Lexington sighed. (How much longer must we be like this?)
"Yeah, there is only a few hours left until dawn approaches.", Morgan said knowingly as she held Brooklyn who was meowing, and Bronx was barking.
So many things to tell her
But how to make her see
"Sorry, we have to wait. In the mean time, let's watch tv.", I said trying to cheer everyone up, and we all sat down to watch tv. 1 hour has passed, and everyone still was under the effects of my sneezing.
"Oh, come on! It was the pipes, you idiot!", Elisa shouted at the TV for a favorite show was on. "You sure, Elisa? I think it was the stove.", Broadway mused out loud.
"I believe you two are wrong. It's the electric lines.", Hudson spoke thoughtfully. "!ti fo erus ma I ,moor gnivil eht ni eldnac eht s'tI", Lexington tried to elaborate. (It's the candle in the living room, I am sure of it!)
The truth about my past, impossible
She'd turn away from me
Brooklyn meowed, and Bronx started whining, and then suddenly everyone was surrounded in a blue aura. "What's happening?", Elisa asked in shock and confusion. "I think the herb has taken effect.", Draven said with a victorious grin.
Then the blue aura disappeared, and I saw that Elisa, and Broadway's outfits changed back to normal. "Woo! I'm no longer in a Catwoman suit!", Elisa said, looking at her red jacket in relief.
"Even though I liked that outfit, I'm glad to be back in my old outfit.", Broadway said, stretching his wings in full height. I then saw that Brooklyn was back to normal.
"Brooklyn, you're okay!", Morgan said happily as she hugged him. "Well, I'm glad as being a cat is hard.", Brooklyn said with a relieved grin. Then we heard barking, and I saw that Bronx was back to his normal age.
"Bronx!", Morgan said joyously as she hugged him, and Bronx licked her face happily. "Hudson, Lexington?", I asked anxiously.
"It's about time. I was growing tired of that voice!", Hudson scoffed with a smirk. "Ha, ha, I am back, baby!", Lexington laughed merrily as he took a page from Brooklyn in attitude.
Phew, I'm glad that their voices are back to normal, and then I turned to look at Goliath. "Goliath?", I asked nervously.
"You know, this time I am actually relieved that your magic is back to normal conditions.", Goliath smiled widely, realizing happily that he's not singing anymore! I sighed in relief as I hugged him.
"I'm glad that you can talk again! Your singing was funny, but it was hard to understand what you were saying.", I said with a smile and giggle.
"I am so glad that Little Shadow didn't see this.", Goliath gave a relieved sigh as I realized that Goliath would have been teased forever if Blaze saw him and the others, but I kept hugging Goliath, anyway.
"I'm very glad to see that you're all okay, and also, I brought back enough herbs just in case Sally gets sick again as she'll take it before her sneezing does something like just now.", Draven said with a grateful and victorious grin.
"Well, I'm glad because I don't want to go through something like that again!", Elisa said, looking horrified for a second. "Ditto!", Broadway agreed heartily.
"But you gotta admit that it was hilarious for a while!", Lexington laughed lightly. "We will take sure that Sally is cared for.", Hudson nodded, realizing a fact.
"I wonder how Xanatos went through tonight, because I would have loved to see it!", Brooklyn grinned with a snicker. "Yes, I never imagined that Xanatos would be a dog, but he was. By now, he's back to normal...", Goliath chuckled lightly with a amused smile.
I chuckled at what they all said, and I then saw Brooklyn hold my sister warmly. "Hey, Morgan. Is it true about what you said to me?", Brooklyn asked anxiously.
"About what?", Morgan asked as she looked at him curiously. "That you love me?", Brooklyn asked with a gulp. Morgan blushed so red that it looks like a tomato.
"It's true. I do love you, Brooklyn", Morgan said with a shy smile, and Brooklyn then hugged her, laughing and kissing her tenderly. "I'm so happy for you, Morgan.", I said with a approving smile.
"Well, dawn is approaching.", Hudson said, warning us, and they all went to the balcony. "Goliath, even though it was annoying, I think your singing is beautiful.", I said as I stopped at Goliath's spot as he took a pose before me. He smiled lovingly and proudly.
"Thank you, Sally, and for once, I was glad that my singing meant something tonight. I am a believer of love, and there's no doubt that you love me back.", Goliath stroked my cheek lovingly. I smiled as I gave him a kiss, and then the sun rose as everyone turned to stone.
I went back to my apartment, and I went to lay down on my bed. Draven was beside me. "I'm just glad that's over.", I said as I looked over at Draven.
"Me too. Now, you need to rest, Sally.", Draven said softly and sternly. I nodded as I closed my eyes, for I really needed a rest after what happened today.
