Getting up from the floor, Elizabeth slithered over to the boxes again, and opened the blue box. "You know..." her left head says to the right. "We could have ssome fun with more of thisss." "My sssentiments exactly," the right head responds. Elizabeth reached for the blue box to and opened it to take out the gemini vial. But her heads hear the sound of the apartment front door slam open, followed by footsteps rushing across the carpet. The knob on the bathroom door twisted violently but remained locked shut. A loud pounding on the door made Elizabeth shrink back, half in fear and half in surprise.
"LET ME IN! Let me in! This is an... Urp... Emergency!" A voice screamed through the door. It was her roommate and friend Gina, who must need the bathroom badly since Elizabeth knows how by-the-book Gina is. Elizabeth stared in shock at the door with one head while the other grabs the red box and the opened blue box with all four arms while looking around the bathroom for where her clothes had wound up. But what scared both her of heads most was whether she didn't have time now to take the human vial yo bed. Elizabeth just hoped that Gina wouldn't panic or faint on seeing her. She unlocked the door and it swung open. Gina leaned against the wall opposite the door. She looked into the bathroom as the door opened and as she saw Elizabeth gasped and turned to the wall, covering her eyes with her arm.
"WHY ARE YOU...TW- urp... NAKED?!?"
Elizabeth grabbed both boxes and quickly slithered out of the bathroom. Se made it out the door in just a couple of seconds. Once clear of the door, she halted her forward motion and started coiling her tail in the hallway, pulling it out of the bathroom as fast as she could. "Sorry Gina." her right head says. "I wassn't expecting you home and wass trying out ssome magic. It'ss real Gina, real magic. I'll sshow you later. Don't worry, everything'ss fine. I'm sstill Elizzabeth."
Gina looked down at the carpet and turned away from the wall. She stared at Elizabeth's tail as it surged out of the bathroom. "Yeah, sure. Urp. 'Magic'. You can show me your... urp... illusions later. And I.. urp... won't ask why they needed you to... urp... take off your clothes." As soon as the tip of Elizabeth's tail left the bathroom, Gina raced in and slammed the door behind her.
Elizabeth was confused and slightly surprised. Her two heads stared at the bathroom door, with varying levels of disbelief visible on their faces. That was not the reaction she had expected, not in the slightest. One head glanced down at the red and blue boxes she carried, just to confirm they were still real and tangible and not some horrible magical prank played on her. They were still secure in her hands, and with a deft motion with her 2nd pair of arms, she raised the lid of each box and confirmed they were still full of magic vials. Just before the lid of the blue box closed, she spotted the business card the woman at the shop had given her.
