Ashley would yell at them to stop, but she knew that wouldn't work. She had to think of a plan, and she thought of one just in time.
With her pointer finger, Ashley became a trail of green sparkles and flew off towards the girls as they hopped into their car. They tossed the bottle in the back seat and stepped on the gas.
With the girls driving, they didn't notice the trail of green sparkles seep through the car door window and into Savannah's bottle.
When Ashley materialized to herself again, she put a hand to her head and moaned. "Ugh, that teleportation spell really drains ya." She looked around, "Whoa..."
Ashley was in awe when she found herself in the biggest, most lavish room she's ever seen in her life. Golden arabesque designs were all around the violet walls, a beautiful bed with many lovely pillows, exquisite red drapes hung around the place, and behind the giant glass doors was a balcony open to a sand filled desert with a night sky filled with sparkling multicolored auroras.
"Mast- uh... I mean, Ashley!"
Ashley turned and saw Savannah looking very upset. "This is horrible! I've been abducted! Whatever shall we-"
Before she could finish, Ashley put her hand over Savannah's mouth. She looked up and heard the twins' voices from outside the bottle.
"Why do you think Britney wants this bottle so bad?"
"Hey, we give her the bottle, we get our money, and that's all there is to it. She could end up in the looney bin for all I care."
"Why do you think Deacon was sleeping at Hillhurst, anyway?"
"I don't know, maybe her mom kicked her out of the house. Or maybe she just lost a bet."
Ashley huffed as she let go off Savannah's mouth. The genie was as mad as her master was. "We must stop them, Ashley! How shall I punish them?! Shall I have them hanging from their ankles over a pit of cobras or have them hung by their fingernails and-"
Ashley covered Savannah's mouth again. "No, Savannah. In this situation, the best thing to do is use our heads and think things through."
"But why?!" Savannah exclaimed. "All you have to do is make a wish and all this can be over! Why haven't you been making any wishes at all?!"
Ashley turned to Savannah. "What's the point of doing something if you can't do it yourself? If we want something, we have to earn it by ourselves. And what I want now is to teach Britney a lesson."
Savannah looked at the witch, astounded by her words.
"But you're right about one thing, Savannah. I am going to make a wish." Ashley grinned. "And I have just the one for this job..."
The twins arrived at the Chambers Estate, they entered and as soon as they did, Britney Chambers herself waltzes in.
"About time you got here." the debutante spat. "I almost had to wait."
"So, what's the story with this bottle, anyway?" June asked.
Britney snatched the bottle out of May's hand. "That's for me to know and you to find out when I feel like telling you." She handed each twin a fifty dollar bill. The twins were out the door without a word.
Britney immediately headed up to her room and locked the door. She smiled with great avarice as she held the genie's bottle in her hands.
"Now, let's see if their is a genie in here..." Britney gave the bottle a good rub, then the bottle released a puff of glittering pink smoke came out of it.
When the smoke cleared, the genie herself appeared. She smiled and crossed her arms. "Greeting, I am Savannah. Glorious genie of the bottle."
Britney's jaw hung low for a few good seconds, then smiled very devilish.
"Yes! I knew it! I knew it! Deacon does have a genie! And if she has a genie. I'll bet she has all kinds of weird secrets everyone should know about! Maybe I'll get a book deal!"
The genie's lips dipped to a frown.
Britney wringed her hands together. "Alright, Genie. My first wish is-"
But the genie pulled out a piece of paper and held a pen in the other hand. "Not so fast, if you wanna make a wish, you must first sign this contract and exactly follow it's customs.
Britney snatched the pen. "Whatever, as long as I get my wishes." She signed on the bottom line. When she did, the contract disappeared.
"Now, Genie, I wish-"
All of a sudden,
Britney and the genie materialized into a cloud of sparkles, no longer in Britney's home.
When Britney opened her eyes, she screamed and screamed and screamed.
She was standing in a dark, creepy room filled with dust and cobwebs, but that's not why she's screaming.
Britney was wearing nothing but her pink bra and panties with white frilly lace. She squealed and covered up her bare stomach and chest. Before here was a crowd of monsters snapping pictures with their cameras, flashes came in all directions. Britney was now standing in Humiliation Nation.
"Whooo! Take it off!" a mummy cheered, taking pictures.
"ARRROOOO!" a werewolf howled.
"HA HA HA HA HA!" a giant with a stitched up face laughed, holding his stomach.
"Hey baby! Are those real?" a blue faced clown chortled like a madman.
Boiling mad, practically in tears, and scared for her life, Britney turned and ran, but that's when her genie was blocking her path, approaching her.
"No! Stay back! Get away from me!" Britney screeched.
The genie pointed a finger at her, making Britney freeze like a statue.
With Britney immobilized, the genie stuck her finger in the girl's ear. A shot of green sparkles shot out of Britney's other ear, making her fall to the floor, unconscious.
When Britney fell to the floor, the genie snapped her fingers and changed her pink hair, making her into a redhead and her purple eyes became a familiar emerald green.
"Way to pull it out of the hat, Ashley!" Flabber said. "And thanks for calling us in on the plan!"
Ashley smiled. "All in a night's work." She held out her hand and the bottle was in her palm. "You can come out now, Savannah."
The real Savannah came out of the bottle and laughed at her hardest. "Oh, Ashley! That was indeed a brilliant plan! Thank you so much!"
"What about Britney?" Fangula asked.
"Don't worry, I wiped her memory. She won't remember a thing. Flabber, help me send her home."
The phasm and witch joined together and used their magic to send Britney back to her home.
"So, what wish did you make, Ashley?" asked Flabber.
Ashley grinned and turned to Savannah, who answered his question. "Ashley wished for my freedom. Releasing me from my bottle..."
The tears of joy came and Savannah smiled brighter than ever. "Thank you so much, Ashley." She embraced the witch with a warm hug. "I don't know how to repay you.."
Ashley released from the hug and got another great idea. "Actually, there is one thing you can do for us."
The Hillhurst parlor was decorated like the inside of Savannah's bottle. Musical instruments were playing by themselves, providing the perfect music to dance to. The Hillhurst gang were having a party right out of the Arabian Nights
"Never though this place would have a genie party!" Flabber commented.
"Well, it is a change of pace." Little Ghoul pointed out.
Mums looked around. "Where's Ashley? This party was her idea, anyway."
"Rarararara!" Wolfie said.
"He said, Ashley said something about a wardrobe change." Fangula translated.
That's when the lights dimmed and two spotlights hit the middle of the room. The monsters sat on the cushions placed on the floor in excitement.
They had a pretty good feeling the real show was about to start.
With a poof and a cloud of sparkles, Savannah and Ashley appeared for the audience. They cheered and applauded, especially Fangula when he saw Ashley's attire, a green bra top with silver beaded pattern with a matching chiffon shirt, and a jeweled headpiece with a transparent veil, but still wore her magic key necklace.
The two began dancing for their friends, and those lessons really paid off. They swayed their hips to the music. They turned around while moving their hips and feet to the rhythm. They stayed in perfect sync as the crowd awed in a trace seeing them dance so beautifully and gracefully.
They ended their performance by posing in an elegant stance. Everyone roared with applause. The girls smiled happily, their hard work paying off.
"I could just die a happy dead man..." Mums sighed to himself.
"Yeah, well, don't get too comfy." Ashley reminded. "So, Savannah, now that you're a free bird, what will you do know?"
"What I said before, I'm going off to see more of this amazing world! Thank you for everything you've done for me, Ashley!" She turned to the monsters. "I will miss you all!"
"And we'll miss you too!" Flabber said. "Come back anytime."
"But before you go," said Ashley. "there's something I want you to have." She snapped her fingers, making a DVD appear in Savannah's hand, she read the title.
"Aladdin?"
Ashley nodded. "That's right, it's a great movie. Trust me, I think you'll love it."
Savannah smiled. "Very well. I will."
Ashley opened the door for her new friend to take off. After giving each monster a hug, Savannah said. "Goodbye. It has been an honor meeting all of you, Salaam, worthy friends."
With one last cross of her arms, Savannah closed her eyes and disappeared in a bright, pink light, leaving a few gold sparkles behind.
"That sure was nice of you to set Savannah free, Ashley." Flabber said.
"Yeah, I'm sure she's do the same for me." Ashley replied. "Anyway, I better get out of this outfit."
But Count Fangula stepped in, took Ashley's hand and gave his toothy smile. "Oh, no rush."
He looked over at the monsters, who smiled as well. Flabber hopped on the organ and the instruments came back to life.
Getting the idea, Ashley wrapped her arms around the vampire. "Oh, Fang..." she giggled.
And so, the party began, again.
