It was a dark and stormy night in Magnolia, all was silent, apart from the storm that raged on above of course. Everyone that was sane had drawn the curtains and gone to bed. There was a flicker of movement at the corner of a street and a dark, heavily cloaked figure appeared. It made it's way down the street turning left, right, right, left and then right until it reached a house with a sign above it saying Medusa's potions and then underneath the title, potions for everything that you need. The figure opened the door and went inside looking behind itself suspiciously to see if anything was watching it. The door slammed closed behind it. 

Inside the shop:

Medusa was tired, tired of getting barely any customers and tired of life. The customers that did come in were desperate for her potions and were boring! So when the doorbell tinkled and opened letting in a gust of wind and rain she said in a bored voice "Welcome to Medusa's potion shop we can cook up potions for everything, what can I do for you today?" and was surprised when a low rough voice answered calmly "I need a Love potion. Think you can get me one?" Surprised Medusa looked up and was astounded to find a cloaked figure standing in front of her desk juggling  bag of coins around. Greedy eyes on the bag of coins she replied "yes of course I can do that but I will need time to prepare it and get the ingredients. It will cost you!" "how much?" "well now that would depend how long you want the potion to last" said Medusa. The cloaked figure dropped the bag of coins on the table and said in a bored voice "Forever! When will it be ready to pick up?" "Tomorrow night at 9:00pm" Medusa reckoned and with that the person was gone. Later Medusa would wonder why this person had been so heavily cloaked and had had such a peculiar request but at the time she thought nothing of it, only interested in the money.

The next day:

"I need some Cinnamon, Jasmine, Rose, Rosemary, Thyme, Lemon leaves and Mint please" ordered Medusa the next day in Magnolia's markets to the herbalist looking after the stall. The herbalist bustled about getting what she'd ordered and then came back "That will be 20 jewels please" ~               "Ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous" muttered an outraged Medusa as she made her way back to her house "Herbs nowadays are so expensive, no idea why I shouldn't just go and pick my own except that I am too old now". Still muttering to herself she went inside, passing the front room where she waited for customers and moved into the back of her house, there she went about getting everything ready to brew the potion. Two hours later a smokey Medusa stumbled out the back of her house into her garden, coughing amidst cackles of delight, but triumphantly holding the love potion in her hands. The neighbours didn't stop and stare as normal people would but that is because they had seen smoke coming from Medusa's homes on too many occasions to worry and also because Medusa lived in an area where nearly all the people were slightly crazy. After awhile Medusa cautiously entered her house and seeing that it was safe she cleaned it up and waited for her customer to arrive. 

9:00 pm that same night: "Wahhhhh" yawned Medusa trying to keep her eyes open "Do you have it?" a voice asked making Medusa jump "Yes here here have it. Sorry I didn't hear you come in" blustered a now wide awake Medusa "That's because you were asleep" snapped the voice and then the person stepped into the light and snatched the potion from Medusa. Relieved Medusa watched as the person turned to go but then it stopped and asked "can you also make a Hatred potion? I will need a lot of it and it needs to be strong!" confused, Medusa replied "Yes of course I can make a potion like that but why do you need a hatred potion?" "it doesn't matter why I need it, can you make it or not? And when will it be ready?" "Ummm, come tomorrow night but-" a bag full of coins landed on the table and the bell tinkled as the person left.
