Marinette and the Magic Lamp

Friend Like Me

Back at the cave:

Marinette lay unconscious on Carpet and Alya tried to wake her.

"Marinette? Wake up, Marinette."

Marinette wakes up and Carpet slowly and gently lifted her up.
"Oh, my head," was the first thing Marinette said. She looked towards the entrance, but it was covered up. "We're trapped."

"It was my fault," Alya said sadly. "I shouldn't have touched that ruby. Or better yet, I shouldn't have made you follow that two faced daughter-of-a-jackal!"

"It's not entirely your fault," Marinette admitted. "That lady talked us into this. And whoever she was, she's long gone with that stupid lamp."

"Oh, you mean this stupid lamp?" Alya took the lamp out from her sleeve.

"You sneaky little thief!"

"I thought that if it was so much trouble to get it, it had to be worth something. Turns out it's just a beat-up, worthless piece of junk." Alya threw the lamp to Marinette.

"Looks like it. Hey! I think something's written here, I just can't see it- -" Marinette rubbed the lamp, trying to polish it so that she could see the writing. Before she could even see if she wiped away any dust, the lamp glowed and smoke came out through the hole. It shook and some sparks flew out. Alya freaked out and Marinette just stood there holding the lamp. Then, a bigger cloud of red and black spotted smoke came out of the lamp and they heard a loud voice.

"Aaaaaaaah! OY!" The thing floating before Marinette and Alya was a giant girl with reddish skin with black spots, big blue eyes and red and black hair wearing two bracelets on both wrist. She seemed to have a pain somewhere, "Ten thousand years will give you such a crick in the neck! Hang on a second," the lady figure picked up Marinette and hung her on the wall. Carpet and Alya tried to help her down. The lady figure pulled her head off and spun it around yelling as she did so.
"Whoa! Does it feel good to be outta there!" The lady used the lamp end of her, which had no feet attached there, and used it as a microphone, "Nice to be back, ladies and gentlemen. Before I continue, which one of you two beautiful ladies rubbed my Lamp?" she pointed the microphone to Marinette and Alya. They didn't say anything, their mouths were open in shock and surprise. Then Alya pointed using her thumb to Marinette.
"Okay! Great ta know. What's your name?"

Marinette gulped and talked into the microphone, "M-Marinette."

"Marinette! Such an exotic name!" A neon sign with Marinette's name on it popped up behind the lady as she said this. The name changed to reflect the lady's upcoming line, "Hello Marinette! Nice to have you here. Can I call you 'Mari' or how about 'Nette'?" Then the sign disappeared and the lady's clothes changed to Scottish attire. "Or how about 'Netty'? It sounds like, 'Here Netty, here girl!'"

"I must've hit my head harder than I thought," Marinette told Alya.

Alya answered her, "If you did, then I'm feeling it too."

"Do you smoke? Mind if I do?" The lady asked then poofed away and reappeared laughing and back in her normal red and black spotted clothes. Alya screamed.

"Oh, sorry girl- - hope I didn't singe your hair. Hey Wayzz! Haven't seen you in a few millenniums! Slap me some tassels," the lady and the carpet, Wayzz, did something like a secret handshake.

"Wayzz?" Alya asked aside. Marinette shrugged.

Then the lady looked at Marinette and started talking to her, "Say, you're a lot smaller than my last mistress. Either that or I'm getting bigger. Look at me from the side, do I look different to you?"
