Chapter 5
The sun began to shine through Amy's room. Amy wakes up and stretches herself. She gets out of bed and goes to the bathroom to brush her teeth. After she finished, she goes downstairs and sees Serena drinking tea and having a blueberry muffin on the wooden table..
"Good morning Amy" Serena said.
"Good morning Serena" Amy said as she sat down and took a bite of a strawberry muffin.
"I just got a call from the Thorndykes they want meto mow their lawn for them and help pull the weeds from their garden" Serena said.
"Who are they?" Amy asked.
"Oh they're one of the richest families I now, they call me to help them whenever they need some yard work done and they're always busy" Serena.
"Wow, anyway I'm going to look for a job, when do you have to mow their lawn?" Amy asked.
"At 12pm, it takes me three hours to get the job done" Serena answered.
"Alright well I'm going to get dress" Amy said.
"Okay Amy" Serena said.
Amy went upstairs to get herself dress.
Two hours later, Serena and Amy were getting ready to head for the city of station square.
"Alright Amy, you ready?" Serena asked.
"Yep" Amy answered.
"Then let's go" Serena said as she and Amy teleported to station square.
At Station Square it was a beautiful warm sunny day. Everyone was on their morning walks and daily routines. Serena and Amy appeared at central park.
"Alright Amy I don't have to be at the Thorndykes in an hour so let's just take a little walk" Serena said.
"Okay" Amy answered.
The girls walked through the park, seeing humans and mobians walking, playing, and having fun. As the time passed Serena and Amy rest at the bench.
"Serena, I'll text you when where I am" Amy said.
"Alright and I'll call you when I'm done working" Serena said.
"I got to get going see ya later Amy, and be careful" Serena said.
"I will bye" Amy said.
Serena teleported to Thorndykes house. Amy was walking through the city, looking for a job. As she was walking she stopped when she saw a help wanted sign and will pay 25 dollars per hour. Interested, Amy looks at the store and it was called Boom, a sport clothing, equipment, and adventure store. Amy goes inside and sees many traveling and sporting equipment. Amy sees a mobian purple bandicoot at the register. Amy goes up to the bandicoot.
"Hi may I help you?" The Bandicoot asked.
"Hi I saw a help wanted sign outside the store and I was wondering if I could work here" Amy said.
"Well it's your lucky day since you're the first and you'll get pay with 25 dollars per hour but you have to talk to the boss" the bandicoot said.
"And by the way my name is Percival but everyone calls me Perci" the bandicoot said.
"Amelia but everyone calls me Amy" Amy said.
The girls then chuckled.
"Hold on a minute I need to call the boss so that she can interview you" Perci said as she called her boss on the phone that was on the cash register.
"Hi ma am there is someone here who would like to work here at the shop" Perci said through the phone.
"Okay I'll send her up there" Perci said and hung up on the phone.
"Alright the boss is ready to see you Amy" Perci said.
"Cool where is she?" Amy asked.
"Upstairs" Amy said as she pointed to the stairs.
"Alright thanks Perci" Amy said as she goes upstairs.
Amy sees a door that says manager. Amy goes up to the door and knocks on it.
"Come in" said the voice from inside the office.
Amy opens the door and sees a mobian baby blue rabbit, sitting behind her desk.
"You must be the one who wants to apply here, come sit" the rabbit said.
"Hello ma am I'm Amy Rose and I would really like to work here" Amy said in a polite tone.
"Hmm but first let's start the interview and get to know you" the rabbit said.
One hour later, the interview was done.
"My you're really special Amy I like you" the rabbit said.
"So does that mean I can work here?" Amy asked.
"Of course my dear your hired" the rabbit said.
"Oh my goodness thank you so much ma am" Amy said as she stand up from her seat.
"You're welcome dear but first how would you to have some new clothes, they're on the house" the rabbit said.
"Really I love to, thank you and plus I'm tired of wearing these clothes that I'm wearing" Amy said looking down at her red dress and boots.
"No need to worry, Perci will help you find the right clothes and show you what you have to do" the rabbit said.
"Thank you so much" Amy said as she left her office and went downstairs of the shop.
"Perci I got the job" Amy squealed in excitement.
"Congratulations Amy, how about I help you find the clothes you want to wear?" Perci asked.
"No thanks you should keep working" Amy said as she wonders through the shop to see what to wear.
30 minutes later, Amy was in the dressing room, wearing the clothes she picked. As she steps out of the dressing room, Amy was wearing a red dress with a white collar with golden buttons on the side, a sarashi around her waist. She was also wearing purple sports tape around her forearms with her gold bracelets over, purple stockings, and red, purple, white sneakers similar to her Sonic Boom outfit.
Amy goes up to Perci at the register.
"Wow look at you Amy I love your new outfit" Perci said.
"Thanks Perci, I got the job and these clothes on the house" Amy said.
"Congrats Amy now let me show you what you have to do" Perci said as she showed Amy what to do.
After showing her Amy starts working at the shop. Meanwhile with Serena, she was mowing the Thorndykes lawn with a lawn mowing machine to drive. After an hour of mowing, Serena parked the lawn mower at the shack where the garden supplies are placed. Serena comes out of the shack and shakes the grass off her fur. She was about to walk her way until a human woman comes to her.
"Serena you did a job well done" the woman said giving her a bottle of water.
"Thanks Ella, I'm ready to help you pull the weeds from the garden" Serena said after drinking her water.
"Sure, but first you need to rest first, don't want to overwork yourself" Ella said.
"True, overworking myself is my weakness" Serena said.
After a half hour of resting, Serena helps pull the weeds in the garden. After an hour of pulling the weeds, Serena was finally finished.
"Whew finally" Serena said. She then takes off her gloves and shakes off the grass and dirt offherself.
Just then, two human couples and a human boy come up to her.
"Serena the lawn looks great, you did a very great job" Mr. Thorndyke said.
"Yeah quite a natural, doing this all by yourself" Chris said.
"Aww thanks, plus I'm capable and independent to do work alone like fighting against five guys by myself and managing to win due to my mixed martial arts and kickboxing skills" Serena said.
"For a young lady, you are really strong" Mrs. Thorndyke said.
"I prefer to be called woman because a woman is can do and be anything" Serena said.
"Right, anyway here's your pay" Mr. Thorndyke said as he handed the hedgehog a check.
"This is much more than my usual pay" Serena said.
"You deserve it after working really hard" Mrs. Thorndyke said.
"Well, Thank you so much, Mr. and Mrs. Thorndyke" Serena said.
"Please you can call us by our real names" Mr. Thorndyke said.
"Oh right, anyway I have to go and look for my Amy" Serena said.
"Amy is she new?" Chris asked.
"Yeah, she's from the knothole kingdom and she's staying with me since she can't find a place to stay" Serena said.
"That's very generous and kind of you Serena" Mrs. Thorndyke said.
"Thank you, now if you will excuse me I'm heading to the city and find Amy, see you three around" Serena said.
"Bye" the Thorndykes said at the same time.
Serena teleports out of the Thorndykes residence and to the city. As she got there, Serena texts Amy to see where she is. Amy texted her back and says that she's working at the Boom shop. Serena walks her way to the Boom shop, since she knows where it is.
As she got there, Serena walks in and sees the pink hedgehog at the register.
"Hey Amy" Serena said.
"Hi Serena" Amy said.
"Did you change your outfit it looks really great on you" Serena said looking on her new outfit.
"Yeah thanks" Amy said.
"What time will you be done?" Serena asked.
"In three hours" Amy said.
"Okay, I'm going to buy a few groceries I'll be back to pick you up" Serena said.
"Okay" Amy said.
"See ya" Serena said.
"Bye" Amy said.
Serena left the shop and heads to go buy a few groceries for her and Amy. Three hours later, Serena returns to the Boom shop and sees Amy and Perci walking out with the manager locking the shop.
"Good job you two, we sold more items than yesterday" the manager said.
"Thank you" Amy and Perci said at the same time.
"Well see you two tomorrow at nine in the morning take care and have a good night" the manager said as she left.
"Great job on your first day Amy, see ya" Perci said as she left.
"Thanks and bye" Amy said.
"Hey Amy I'm back" Serena said as she comes up to her.
"Oh great I can't wait to return home I need to rest" Amy said.
"Me too, let's go" Serena said as she and Amy teleported to Serena's house.
As they got there, the flopped on the couch.
"Boy I'm beat" Amy said.
"Me too I'm going to take a shower" Serena said as she goes upstairs to take a shower.
Amy goes upstairs too and into her room. She kicked off her shoes and stockings. She then removes her dress, leaving her black sport spandex shorts and black sports bra with a red under armour symbol on.
Amy exhales in exhaustion as she flops on her bed.
"Wow, this feels comfortable, why haven't I thought about wearing the clothes that I have on before while resting" Amy said to herself.
She then falls asleep.
