A Snakehearted Trip: To Paris We Go! [Closed]

The last three days had been nothing but rest, sleep, and more rest. For some reason, her body and mind were all tired. She wasn't able to recover as quickly as she usually did. She realized that this was because she used so much energy, not gained injuries. She can recover from injuries fine, but when her energy is depleted to practically nothing, it took a bit longer. Now, it was Saturday and it was time for her to get her reward! At least she hoped. She felt slightly guilty for what she wanted, but this cloak was just to... well not as feminine as she would have liked. She wanted a dress of sorts and she wanted to go out and look for a style she liked and then ask Hebi to make her one out of the same material her cloak is made of. And anyway... wearing the same clothes every day is no way a girl wants to live. So, once she woke up, she hopped out of bed and ran over to where ever her Hebi was. With a huge smile on her face, she leaped towards him, wrapping her arms around him, and hugging him tightly. "Doctor Hebi, I wanna go today! Can we? To that Paris place? The one in France! I want to... well..." she had a small blush come on her face and then smiled widely at him, "I want to pick out a dress... so you can make me one just like the cloak, but looking like the dress... Please?" She stared up at him with a desperate smile, practically praying that he would say yes.

Amelia couldn't help but have that happy smile on her face. When he wrapped his arms around her, her smile changed from happy to relaxed, calm, and completely content. She felt safe with him, like nothing could ever hurt her. She almost didn't even notice that they were moving through the ground. She trusted him completely anyway and would allow it. Soon, they rose up out of the ground and into a plaza of some sorts. Amelia looked around and something about this place, although exciting, scared her. She stepped closer to Hebi, her hands coming to the front of his clothes and grasping very tightly onto him. One thing she hadn't realized, because all of her memories are from being with only Hebi in the lab, was how many people there was going to be. They were everywhere. Walking up and down the streets, in the buildings, sitting down on benches. She couldn't figure out why so many were around her. Since she only remembers her and Hebi being together, all of these new faces, people, dangers.... It was frightening.

"Uh... I just wanted to get a dress..." Amelia said as she held tighter onto his shirt, her hands actually trembling, "Why are all of these other people here? I don't want them here. Make them go away!" Amelia was serious when she said that. She didn't know whether Hebi would actually do something like that and kill all of these people just for her to feel comfortable, but she wasn't taking the words back. She was scared. That was all that could be said for the nervous young girl.

Amelia watched his hand move passed her face. Suddenly a burst of wind pushed a lot of people into the air. She blinked a few times, looking up at them as they were suddenly shot across the sky and away from her and Hebi. Hearing him tell her they were gone, she looked back to him with an almost angelic smile on her face. She nodded, took his hand, and began walking through the plaza to find some sort of clothing store. Soon, she found one. In the windows were multiple dresses, a few of witch Amelia actually liked a lot. She leaned her face up against the glass, looking at all of them. "Doctor Hebi!! Look, look!" she said pointing at one. It was really long, going all the way down to the ground and had the back showing. It was a bright pink color with some lace going down the middle. It was beautiful, but not something she would wear every day. She then moved over, moving along the glass until she came to a door. She blinked a couple of times and examined it. It was glass with a metal rim and had a bar as a handle.

"Uh..." Amelia was still a bit more naive of the outside world than she would have thought herself. She grabbed onto the handle and attempted to turn it, but it didn't turn. Instead the door shifted inwards. Her eyes lit up in curiosity and she pulled it back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. "It goes both ways! And there is no turn knob!" she pulled the door open completely and stepped inside to a large and brightly lit room. She looked around, seeing racks of clothing. A smile brightened on her face and she ran over to a few more of the dresses she saw. Some had designs, others had long sleeves, short sleeves, came down to the knees, down to the... very edge of the buttline, and others were tight while others were loose. "Lots of dresses! Can we look at them all? I wanna try them all on and find the nicest one!" she looked back to Hebi with an excited and overly happy look in her eyes. "Will you help me decide?"

Amelia began grabbing dresses and tossing them over her and Doctor Hebi's shoulders. She was having so much fun with all of the pretty colors and designs. So much to choose from! While she was searching through, a woman walked up to them and attempted to speak nicely. Amelia stopped everything she was doing and stared blankly at her. She thought Hebi had gotten rid of everyone, but those were just the people outside. She blinked a few times, just staring and the woman asked if they needed any help. Amelia said nothing, but brought her tail around to grab onto the woman's wrist and literally throw her along the floor like a bowling ball down the lane. The woman slid across the floor until she hit a large shelf and Amelia just went back to her searching. Feeling like she has enough to try, she looked over to Hebi with that overly excited look again. "Let's try all of these!" Amelia said and looked around. She saw a sign that read 'fitting room' and walked towards it, "I think this is where we go." She stepped inside and into a room, pulling Hebi in with her rather excitedly. She held up all the dresses, a total of ten. "Which one should I try first?!"

Amelia didn't even give him time to answer! She was so excited to wear something so pretty that she just tossed all but one dress to him. She stripped herself down, began to change, and once she was done, she looked towards the mirror. She liked it, but something was just a little off. It had spaghetti straps, went down passed her knees, and was bright pink. She shook her head. "No. Not this one!" she said and then began a routine of changing, deciding against the dress, and then asking Hebi. "What do you think of this one?!" she asked him on her second dress, and then her third, and fourth, and fifth. It kept going, her constantly asking him for his opinion.

Amelia tossed every single dress out of the room in an uncaring fashion. She literally stood there thinking, naked at the moment. Putting her cloak back on, she was extremely disappointed in what she had found. Nothing she really liked, nor did Hebi seem to enjoy so that made it even worse. She sighed and gently took Hebi's hand, an obvious change in mood as she walked out of the room with him. Her eyes were empty, she did not smile. She just began heading back towards the front of the store where she remembered the door she entered through to be. With how many dresses she had tried on, it was late. Enough time had passed for the woman she had thrown to clean up the mess and leave and to even have a few people 're-stocking' the mannequins. Amelia was just gonna walk out without another word, but stopped when something caught her eye. A dress that was being put on the mannequins. It was very cute, slimming, black, and came with stockings and a ribbon around the shoulders.

Amelia walked up to it and stared at it a bit. A woman was putting the dress on the mannequins at the time. Amelia looked to her with another blank expression that was some what threatening. The woman only smiled and as Amelia's tail was coming around to grab the woman by the neck without her noticing, she asked... "Would you like to try it on?" in a kind voice. Amelia's tail stopped right before grabbing the woman and slid back into place. Amelia said nothing and nodded to the woman. The woman took the dress and accessories off of the mannequin and handed it to Amelia. Amelia took it and began walking back towards the fitting rooms, but as she was doing so, she kept glancing back towards the woman who gave her the dress. She glanced towards her about three times before she reached the dressing room. As she entered, she repeated the previous process, but this time without really pulling Hebi inside. Rather quickly, she stepped out, wearing the dress, and accessories that went with it. She was fully dressed, including shoes. The only thing she didn't know what to do with was the ribbon.

"I love this one." Amelia said in a calm voice, with a softened smile on her face as she stared down at the ribbon. She raised her head and looked up to a mirror that was there. She soon got an idea and brought the ribbon up and around her hair, tying most of it up. As she saw this finished outfit, she couldn't help but smile and actually feel sort of... Well she didn't understand it, but she definitely liked it. She turned to the side, looking at herself and still smiling as if she was one hundred percent satisfied. "You look beautiful." the woman from before said, the one that handed her this dress. Amelia turned around and looked towards her, with a wide-eyed blank look, like she was truly unsure of how she was supposed to act. "... Beautiful?" she asked and the woman nodded, walking off and waving. Amelia blinked a few times and then looked to Hebi. Right now... she was learning something, but at the same time was unsure of what she was learning...
