"Diana, Hecate! I hereby license thee to depart. Goddess of creatures great and small, I conjure thee to withdraw!"
As Willow chanted the invocation, she waved her hands over the tiny rat on her bed. < C'mon, Amy. De-rat! De-rat! > "Oh, you can do it, little rat-Amy. I know you like your bell and your little wheel, but c'mon! Life as a person has got to be better than this!"
The Amy-rat simply wiggled her little nose and squeaked. Willow sighed. "Time to try this again.
"Diana, Hecate..."
A couple of hours, many chants, and eighteen dollar's worth of herbs later...
"...I conjure thee to withdraw!"
Willow shouted the last bit, then watched in awe as the fur and tiny, beady eyes of the rat melted and lengthened to form the human Amy. Amy looked around with huge eyes, hugging her knees to cover her nudity.
"Amy! You're a person again." Willow peered at her friend. "Your hair is longer."
Amy pulled her hands away and looked at them. "Flesh! Human flesh! Willow, thank you?" She jumped off the bed to hug the other girl warmly.
Willow returned her hug with a blush, but then pulled away, pointing out, "Uh, Amy? You're kind of...naked."
Amy gulped, then grabbed a sheet of Buffy's bed. "Do you think that I could get some clothes?"
"Sure." Willow fumbled in the closet til she found a t-shirt and jeans that were, well, clean. Handing them to Amy, she turned her back so her friend could put them on. < I did it! I made Amy human! I'm a real witch! >
"Okay," Amy said. "I'm dressed."
Willow turned around to face her friend with a grin. "Amy, I'm so glad you're you again. We have so much to talk about."
Amy nodded, blushing. "Yeah, that's true. But first, uh, Willow..."
"Yeah?"
"About you and Oz...before graduation?"
Willow nodded. "Yeah, we uh..." She grinned and blushed.
Amy shifted uncomfortably. "About that...not that I'm not happy for you two...but couldn't you have moved me out of the room first?"
Willow's face paled.
"Eep."
