After living with Amelie with three days Lena has come to the conclusion that she wasn't entirely evil. There were times when she reminded Lena who was in charge, for instantce when Lena was trying to take a shower when Amelie barged in and turned her calm morning shower into her morning workout. She'd like to say that she hated when she did this, but secretly she looked foward to it. Whenever Lena was stressed or getting frustarted about the case and how more and more incidents were ocuring around town. She would come up and tell Lena to take a break. And of course within minutes she'd be on her back exhausted but extremly satasifed.
Which is were she found herself this morning after having been ambushed shortly after waking up. As she picked up her clothes from where Amelie had thrown them after tearming the off her she looked at the state of herself in the mirror. Deshelved didn't begin to describe how she looked right now. Her hair was a mess and her body looked as though she'd just lost a wrestling match, which in a way she had. To make matters worse she saw that despite all this she had a large smile on her face.
Why am I so happy? I should't be smiling about this.
But it does feel reeeallly good. No! I need to lay some kind of ground rules.
If you're done trying to convince yourself that you don't love our morning routine then come to the living room.
Even through it had been days she still could't get used to her this mental link they shared. Espically since now she couldn't even complain withouth it being heard.
Sighing she got dressed and made her way to the living room where Amlie was laying on her couch wearing one of her pairs of underwear. It was perhaps the only thing she convinced her to wear while at home. "It's about time you got up. I hope your ready because I have plans for us today."
"What do you mean?"
"I didn't wait thousads of years in the underworld just to stay here and watch tv. I want to see how this world has changed and see all that it has to offer me."
"Okay but what does that have to do with me?"
"Who else is going to take me out on a night on the town."
"What!? I can't do that."
"So youre saying that you want me, a young beautiful women to go out alone?"
"I think we both know your more then capable of dealing with anything this world can throw at you."
"Of course I am but I want you there with me."
"Why?"
"Because I enjoy your company and I want to have what you humans call a date." She wanted to protest but knew that watver she said would be ignored. "But what about me case? I can't just drop evrything to take you out on a date"
"Oh you don't have to worry about that. While you were recovering I took the liberty of informing your partner that you won't be comming to work today."
She wanted to scream, to do something other then stand there fumming. "Fine but If I take you out I you to behave like a human. No harming anyone or using any of your powers."
She smiled and snapped her hands instatnly getting dressed in a ll black clothes. " I promise to behave properly."
Having little choice in the matter she follwed her out the door and down to the car. Once in the car Amelie told her of their supposed plans.
"First I want you to show me exactly what this town has to offer."
"That's it? I figured you'd want to do more then see the sights of the town."
"I have plans for us later tonight but for right now I want to see." Hearing this made Lena both excited and nervous but she put her worries away for now and decdied to take her to the downtown distract where most of the local shopes and older buildings. As they drove down there Lena started to get curious about the demon sitting next to her. Usually whenever the two of them talked it was about small things. Sure she knew that she was the queen of the underworld but next to that she was a complete stranger.
"Amelie can I ask you something?"
"You can ask me anything my dear."
"Well seeing as were going to be with each other all day I'd like to know more about you."
"Very well I suppose I can answer your questions. However you only get three."
"Why only three?"
"Because it's more fun for me if you work for it. So I suggest you choose your question wisely." Hearing this Lena thought about what she was going to ask as the car came to a stop in front of a ice cream shop.
The car had just stopped when Amelie was out looking at everything like a small child would. They had barely been there for a few seconds when Lena heard shouting. As she got out of the car she saw that Amelie had marched to the front of the line and was looking at a terrfied teenager behind the counter.
Lena rushed in and apoligzed before barley mananging to drag her to the end. "At least try and be polite."
"I think we both know that's not in my nature"
"Please just try for me." She looked at Lena for a second before relaxing. "Oh very well but I want to try everying."
It's a small victory but I'll take it.
When they finally got to the front Amelie made good on her word and ordered eveything on the menu. After putting it all on her card they made their way to their table where their mountain of food was delivered.
For just a moment Lena was suprised at just how innocently Amelie looked when she looked from item to item.
She's just so cute right now.
"Thanks for the complment, now are you going to help me with all this or what?"
Normally she wasn't the biggest fan of ice cream but seeing as she didn't want to go to waste she dived in and went to work. To her suprise she lasted about a few minutes and burned through a good number of orders before getting full. Amelie however not only finished her portions but finished everything on the table.
"That was by far the best human food I've had. Now on to the next stop."
Without getting a chance to ask what that meant she was dragged out fo the store and into one of the local boutiques where she sat for over an hour while watching her try on outfit after outfit all the while trying not to give in to her constant teasing.
When it was all over and her card nearly pushed to it's limits she tried to drfit off in her car between the bags of outfits as Amelie drove. She'd started to ask if she even could drive but she assured her that she had her eyes. To tired to ask she just drifted off to sleep and hoped that it would all be over soon and she could good a good night sleep so she could focus on her case tommrow.
In the front of the car Amelie watched as Lena's breath slowed and she drfited off to sleep.
"Now that she's asleep it's time for the second part of my plan." it took her a bit longer to get the used to driving but eventualy she figured out what to do from what memories she'd looked over and arrived at their final destination. Ever since comming to this world and discovering how it's chance she'd wanted to come here.
She'd seen it on eht enews that this place was one of the fanciest hotels that the world had to offer and being a queen she decided she was going to stay here.
After driving up she walked up to the counter and used her persauive skills to get the penthouse. Suprisingly nobody seemed to mind when she carried Lena up to their new room.
"You get some sleep Lena. I want you rested for when I get back."
No matter how many times she stared at the human beneath her she never grew tired of it. She'd meet many types of humans during her lifetime but there was something about this one that peaked her intrest.
"Now to deal with a certin annoying problem." since comming to this world she could sense a faint trace of demonic engery in the city. At first she was content to let it be as long as it didn't become a problem. Except now Lena was involved and she wasn't about to let another demon, Nervan espically ruin her fun or damdage her things.
After locking the door she left the hotel and went into a local park where she sent out a small amount of engrey as a becon.
Almost imediatly she sensed a reply and felt it drawing closer. Within a few minutes she saw a human male approaching but new from his scent it was Nervan. He stopped just short of her and smiled.
"Hello my queen, it's been some time."
"Yes although the last time we met I banished you and you vowed revenge."
"And now here we both are in the human world. How is your human summoner by the way? I was a bit rough with her when we met."
She didn't show it but that remark made her furious. "She's fine."
"That's good to hear. I on the other hand have a nasty wound from where I got shot. Human bodies are just so frail, but I'll soon have a new one."
"Let me guess you're going to try and raise another army here then try to take over the underworld again?"
"Well like the humans say if at first you don't suceed."
He lunged foward with a knife but Amelie was quicker and punched him in the chest send him back.
"If you couldn't beat me thousands of years go then what makes you think you can beat me now?"
"Because now you have a weakness. I knew you'd try to take me out by yourself. So I took the liberty of making some new friends. Humans might be weak but the are eaisly manipulated into making poor deals with our kind." as he talked she sensed more demonic engergy in some of the humans near the edge of the park.
"I'd love to settle things with you here and now but I want to do that at full strength. Enjoy your time in this world my queen." as he walked away clutching his chest she balled her fists in anger. " An adorable human and an old enemy to beat down again. And here I thought I couldn't have any more fun."
