"Fine, I'll bite," Jon said. "But none of the wishes are permanent, including the wish for the winner. Also, no mind changes."
"Agreed," Karyn said. "I'll make some rules for the stone." She took out a piece of paper and wrote down a few things. She handed it to Jon. It read:
- All wishes can be undone if one of us says the word 'gumdrop', besides the rules on this paper.
- Reality does not change with our wishes, unless we explicitly say so.
- Our minds cannot be changed through wishes.
- We cannot be injured or killed because of a wish.
"Why not change reality?" Jon asked.
"Because," Karyn said, "it could change things that we didn't intend. I went home before I came here. My parents treated me like I always had this hair and bust size. They treated me a little different as well. Is there anything else you want to add?"
"No," Jon said. "We can always add more rules if we need them.'
"Yeah, can I see the stone?" Jon handed the stone to Karyn. She said, "I wish the rules on this paper applied. I wish you didn't have a shirt on."
Jon's shirt evaporated, revealing his skinny figure. "Hey, Karyn, what was that for?"
"Gumdrop," Karyn said with a smirk. Jon's shirt reappeared. "Just a test. Shall we begin our game?"
