Chapter 36- Reversal!

Shadow was dragged in the front door by his ankles by a horde of crickets. His face was covered in lipstick and his hands were handcuffed. The crickets dumped him in the kitchen and hopped away.

Amy looked down at him in surprise, "What happened to you?" she asked.

"The fan girls…" Shadow mumbled angrily, then he pulled himself up and went to find a bobby pin to pick his handcuffs.

Liz and Tails came in a moment later, "What's for dinner?" Liz asked.

Amy groaned, "Don't even bother. I'll do it myself." She turned the knob on the stove all the way up and the pot she was using burst into flame. Then she pulled out a fire extinguisher and put it out.

"Hmm… I guess we'll just have to eat these green crayons." Liz said reaching into her pocket. She took a bite out of one, "I sure hope these are non-toxic…" she mumbled as she left the room.

Amy glared after her but then looked at Tails, "Where were you?" she asked.

"I was being held hostage by a sudden plot twist." Tails said. Then she followed Liz out. Amy just stood there looking confused. Then she took out a sponge from under the sink so she could clean the ashes off the stove.

Shadow was in the bathroom wiping lipstick off his face when he heard a scream and a loud bang. At first he ignored it because noises like this were common in their household, but then he decided that since the narrator was following him around he should go see what happened for the sake of the plot or whatever you could call the insane layout this story was using. He left the bathroom and saw Sonic lying on the hallway floor looking dazed and Liz standing on his back.

"AND STAY OUT YOU FILTHY…" she paused, "WHATEVER THE HELL YOU ARE!"

Then she stormed into her room and slammed the door.

Shadow approached Sonic, still lying on the floor. "You went into her room?" he demanded.

"I was trying to find those instructions for a Sonic Voodoo doll you gave her." Sonic explained, "I found them!"

"AAAH! YOU LITTLE BASTARD! COME PUT OUT THIS FIRE!"

"She's gonna kill you, resurrect you and then kill you again." Shadow said. Then he went back to the bathroom to finish washing his face.

Later…

Liz sat on the couch munching on green crayons when Tails came downstairs. "Hey Liz, why wasn't Eggman turned into some sort of animal?" she asked.

Liz paused in thought, "Wow, I didn't think of that…" she admitted, "It's not a bad idea."

"What animal would he be though?" Tails asked.

Liz smiled evilly, "Hmm… I think I know…" she said. Then she ran out the door.

Tails watched her go for a moment but then stood up and went into the kitchen where Amy was still wiping ashes off the stove.

Even later…

Liz came back into the house and went into the kitchen were Sonic and Shadow were looking for anything edible. "I did it!" Liz said triumphantly.

"What, dare I ask?" Shadow said.

"You'll see…"

Just then, the kitchen wall was torn off. As the dust settled the boys saw a robot hover into the kitchen and behind the controls was a walrus with an orange mustache wearing black glasses. They stared for a moment and then collapsed in laughter.

Liz just smiled, "Right on cue." she said, "Well done Egghead. Say, where are your new friends?"

"They couldn't stop laughing…" he mumbled, "But I know you had something to do with this and I'm here for revenge!" he added in a louder voice.

"Oh sure… what are you going to do?" she asked with a sly smile.

"Well, I was going to demand to know how you did this so I could reverse it… but I think I'll just go with plan B!" Eggman said. With that, he raised his flipper and tried to press a button but his flipper pressed three at a time by accident and the machine just beeped. "Damn flippers!" he cried.

"Have fun trying to fix that." Liz said then she turned to leave.

Eggman slammed his flipper against the control panel and suddenly a blue laser fired and hit Liz. She stumbled and fell down the stairs into the basement, "Well, that works too I guess…" Eggman said with a smile.

"She's gonna kill you." Shadow mumbled.

"You take too much pleasure in informing people of their upcoming doom." Sonic said, "Maybe you really do need a therapist."

"Shh! They're listening!" Shadow said glancing around.

"YOU SON OF A BITCH!" a squeaky voice called.

Sonic glanced around, "What the hell was that?" glancing around the kitchen.

Shadow's mouth fell open and he turned Sonic towards the basement stairs where a brown rabbit wearing a Led Zeppelin shirt that was much too big for her was glaring at Eggman.

Eggman let out a laugh that sounded more like a seal barking, "How interesting! I'll have to figure out which buttons I pressed and try that on someone else!" then he flew off in his robot.

Sonic and Shadow just stared at the new rabbit Liz standing near on top of the stairs. She glared over at them, "What the fuck are you looking at?" she demanded.

Sonic's shock faded and he smiled evilly, "It's been reversed!" he screamed throwing his hands in the air, "At last I know how it feels to be all powerful!"

Then Sonic was knocked over as Liz slammed into his legs. She sat on his back holding his arms, "FEEL THIS!" she screamed as she beat his head with her boots that no longer fit her.

Shadow reached down and picked her up by her ears. She struggled to break free but then folded her arms across her chest angrily, "Alright… I'm calm." she said. Shadow put her back on the floor.

She turned and headed into the living room, "Where're you going pipsqueak?" Sonic shouted, "That was only round one!"

"I need clothes that fit me. Then I'll kick your ass." she called back.

Tails watched as she passed and then went into the kitchen just as Sonic was standing up, "Was that Liz?" she asked.

"Yeah." Sonic said, "Isn't it great?"

"What happened?"

"Eggman shot her with some kind of laser." Shadow explained, "Notice, the broken wall."

"Oh yeah! And Eggman was a walrus!" Sonic said trying to contain his laughter, "THIS IS THE HAPPIEST DAY OF MY LIFE!"

"Enjoy it while you can, it won't last." Shadow said.

"You just love to bring me down, don't you?"

"As your evil opposite it's kind of my job."

"You say she was shot with a laser?" Tails asked.

"Yeah. Do you think you can reverse it?" Shadow asked.

"I can try."

"What are you talking about? Why would you want to change her back?" Sonic demanded, "She's completely helpless this way! Would you prefer the insane, angry, evil, all powerful monster she usually is?"

Tails thought for a moment, "Not really…"

"Yeah but you should just find a way to change her back for the sake of the story." Shadow said.

"Careful Shadow, they're listening." Sonic teased.

Shadow glanced around suspiciously, "You're right…" he mumbled.
