"I wish..." Sarah's face broke into a cruel smile "that from now on, every time I poke you in that soft lil' belly of yours, you'll shrink an inch in height and gain an extra ten pounds of flab. Now, let's see if my wish comes true.." With that, Sarah yanked up the bottom of Jon's t-shirt, exposing his the soft, plump belly she had wished upon him earlier. She cocked her left hand back, and starting spinning her index finger around in a circle.
Jon was almost in tears-why had Karyn (now seemingly permanenly Ethel) betrayed him to Sarah? His plan might have worked if she had only been willing to help..but even Jon realized his plan might have been doomed from the start-Sarah had majicked her locker to alert if anyone tried to steat the stone away from her. John looked on helplessly as Sarah taunted him, spinning her finger in the air. The same wish that alerted her when he tried to get the stone made him unable to fight back. He knew pleading would do no good but couldn't help himself. "Please, Sarah. Please don't... I messed up, but I won't try again, I won't..ZOINK! ZOINK! Sarah's fingr darted forth, poking him once, twice in his belly button.
Jon felt the sensation he had experienced once before, when Sarah originally did this to him. He felt a tingling in his arms and legs as they dwindled, dropping him another two inches. Sarah and Ethel had already been taller, but now they towered above him. Then he felt a tightness in his chest and belly as they swelled outward-his flabby middle turned into a true potbelly, love handles protruded over his sides, and his chest grew softer. At his new height of 5'3 1/2" tall and new weight of 200 pounds, Jon was truly tubby.
"There, Jon. I promised Ka...I mean Ethel I'd go easy on you, so I thik two pokes is enough...for now. But any time you cross me in any way-ANY WAY-you'll get two more. But I'm nice-stay out of my way from now on and I'll leave you alone."
Jon fought back tears-he didn't want Sarah to see him cry. But Ethel could see how distraught Jon was-she even stopped licking the remaining chocolate from her fingers and waddled over to Jon's side. "It's okay Jon-really. You don't look that bad. She went easy on you, really. Maybe...maybe Sarah will wish that you're happy with your new self too" Ethel looked over at Sarah with a longing look on her face.
Sarah laughed. "Tell you what I'll do...I wish"
