The footsteps suddenly stopped. "Zoe," said Jon, "I wish you realized that your memories of having a sister were caused by the stone." And then he added, "Zoe, do you realize what you did?" The idea hit Zoe like a brick. "I do now. You know, it's really both of our faults. What do we do? Things are going to get complicated...." "I know," said Jon. "We can't undo the wish, but we can change it a little bit. Nobody's seen our sister yet. She hasn't experienced more than taking a couple of steps down a hall. Why don't we wish to make her the way we want? It's not as if she's been something else for years and we're taking away her past." "Hmm," said Zoe. "I wish," said Jon, "that when we describe our sister, an image of her will appear in front of us, and that by the end of the hour of fast time the image will disappear and our sister will be like that." A pillar of air in front of Jon turned foggy, then cleared away to reveal a transparent, indistinct figure of a girl with a very generic looking face, sort of like Jon's mother's. It was a five foot high blob with a face. "How about this?" said Jon. "Red hair, blue eyes." The figure's head suddenly cleared up. The figure of the girl now had short red hair and blue eyes. "Make the hair longer," said Zoe. "And blonde." The hair lengthened and changed color. "No," said Jon, "make it redhead, but keep the length." The hair turned a reddish shade once more. "Hmm, how about making the girl Zoe's identical twin?" The hair blackened, the figure grew black fingernails, and the whole thing became distinct--looking identical to Zoe. "Hmm," said Zoe. She was really starting to get in the mood. "Slightly bigger breasts, and make her not be a goth. We don't need two in the house!" The hair changed subtly, the nails became pink. "In fact, never mind that, make her a twin of Jon, except that she's a girl." The girl got a bit taller, but not as tall as Jon, her face morphed to one like Jon's, and her hair resembled Jon's exactly. "Oh, and she should be tolerant of anything strange, like me being a Goth. Make her like to do the things me and Jon like to do, except for Goth dress and makeup. She's popular at school but hates the people we hate. She's takes our side when we argue with Mom or Dad." A green block of text appeared--right in midair, like a screen on one of those sci-fi TV shows, saying "Personality: Tolerant of others such as Goths. Interests: Includes same as Jon and Zoe. Popular with friends of Jon or Zoe, supports Jon/Zoe in conflict with parents." "You can do that?" said Jon. "How about she be a lesbian?" The block of text now had the word "lesbian" added, in green. "And she doesn't mind wearing sexy clothes." "Do guys think of anything else?" said Zoe. "Maybe we're being too hasty," said Zoe. "Take the 'lesbian' away for now, we'll decide whether to put it back later." The L-word vanished from the midair display. "And she should be dressed in some nice clothes." The clothes that appeared, of course, as taken from Zoe's mind, were black. "Wait a minute," said Jon. "Maybe that should be a dress. Or we can make our sister a tomboy." The figure changed, first so that it was wearing a green dress, then to T-shirt and pants and very short hair. "Or... Wait a minute, we need a name, if she isn't a twin, we need an age...." It took the good part of an hour before Jon and Zoe were satisfied with just what their new sister would be like. Then the display winked out, and the transparent figure vanished. The footsteps were close, and then their new sister opened the door. She was exactly as Jon and Zoe had specified her. She was.... goofed again | |
