Emery, Cat, Lilan and February went to the mall for their party outfits.
"Ugh, all of the party garments are pink and girly and lacy and ew." Emery whined.
"Oh, shut up Emery!" Cat laughed while slapping her on the back. "Psst, February! Help me find something for my ears and tail!"
"Got it!" February whispered back. "Ok, Lilan and Emery, you two do whatever. Cat needs my help."
"Ok, do what ya want. Go die or eat a polar bear, I dunno." Lilan mumbled, obviously not paying attention.
Cat lead February to a dressing room.
"Ok, I need you to help me with your magic or something and blast holes in this for my ears and tail!" Cat whispered.
"Got it!" February agreed.
Cat picked out a pink tank top with multi colored dots on it. She also had rainbow jeans with cotton balls on the ends. (To resemble clouds of course)! Cat had a red beret as well. Her black flats laid far out of reach from magic lasers. February and Cat began slowly sizzling holes in her attire.
"It would've been easier if I'd found out how to make my ears and tail disappear! But noooooooo, the princess can't learn how to do that! She should be proud of her heritage! Blah blah blah! I wish I blackmailed that wizard before I killed him!" Cat grumbled to herself.
Back to Emery and Lilan!
"Ugh, why's everything you're buying black!?" Lilan asked while Emery was checking out.
"It's not going to be black for long. I'm going to tweak it up when I get home." Emery answered.
"Good for you. But what'll I wear!? Ugh!" Lilan was in a bad mood.
"Aw, c'mon! Why're you being such a butt head today!?" Emery grumbled.
"Maybe because no one's gonna ask us out!" Lilan slammed head on the check out counter. "So just let me die a perfect death: Death by Shopping."
"Stop being such a useless lump." Emery snapped. "I'm sorry but if you don't stop being a sad sack, I'll drive off with the car without you, like I did last time you were depressed."
"Sorry, sorry. But what should I wear?" Lilan asked.
"Hmmmm... here how about this?" Emery offered.
She held up a blue jumpsuit with a red band down the middle. Then Emery held up a pair of red flats. Then a gold purse. And finally a blue head band.
"There. Cute outfit. Now try it on." Emery ordered.
Lilan and Emery headed to the dressing rooms. A crackling sound echoed around them.
"What's that?" Lilan whispered.
"I dunno, but it's coming from that room." Emery replied, pointing at the room at the very end.
They slowly tiptoed toward the sound. Lilan made a 3, 2, 1 countdown with her fingers right before she swung open the door. They couldn't believe what they saw. Sitting in front of the were their two best friends, Cat and February, zapping away at Cat's outfit. Cat and February darted up.
"I-It's not what you think!" February lied.
"It's nothing, I promise!" Cat added to the fib.
It didn't matter. Lilan and Emery were smack down on the floor in the most uncomfortable positions imaginable.
"Are they dead!?" Cat screamed.
"Let's hope not!" February panicked.
"Ugh, what'll my parents say if they see I accidentally killed another human!?" Cat cried.
"Another!? This isn't your first accidental murder!?" February shreiked.
"Not the time, Feb! Now help me lug up their dead bodies!" Cat frazzled around.
"We're not dead...." Lilan's barely conscious voice shuddered.
Cat threw Lilan against the wall.
"OH MY GOD CAT, ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL THEM!?" February screeched.
"Sorry, I panicked! We couldn't have them awake anyways. We have to erase their memories!" Cat thought on the idea.
"THERE'S NO POINT IN ERASING THEIR MEMORIES! I BET YOU KILLED THEM ALREADY!" February yelped.
"No I didn't!" Cat complained. She put her hand on Emery and Lilan's stomachs. "See, they're still breathing! They're just unconscious..."
"Oh my God, how do we get them out of here without being caught!?" February breathed in and out very quickly.
"Don't worry, we'll just make them temporarily invisible!" Cat answered.
February and Cat combined their powers and made their unconscious friends transparent. They lugged them out of the mall but it looked like they were constipated weight lifters lifting nothing. Some lady have them a weird look.
"Creeps..." She muttered.
"HEY, IF YOU THINK THIS IS CREEPY, THEN JUST LOOK AT YOURSELF IN THE MIRROR!" Cat screamed at the woman.
February and Cat hauled Emery and Lilan into the trunk of their car.
"Ok, note to ourselves, never become a murderer. Too much work." February sighed.
"Agreed." Cat groaned.
Then they passed out in the front seat of their car.
