As I showered, I pretended that I was confident. It was even funny watching Carter as he tried to kiss a piss soaked jockstrap. He couldn't do it without throwing up.
I was also worried. I made all that stuff up about a kiss restoring Ryan. I had no idea how to restore Ryan. I wasn't even sure how I turned him into a jockstrap to begin with. I knew it had something to do with the amulet Grandmama gave me but could I summon that magic again? I looked for ways I could sneak out while Carter and Horst were distracted but couldn't find any.
"Hey, this isn't working. You lied to us." They figured it out. I felt each of them grab my arms, Horst on my left and Carter on my right.
I felt hot again but the amulet felt cool. I felt a surge of magical confidence and said, "YOU WILL NOT HURT ME, YOU JELLYFISH!"
Horst and Carter looked strangely pale. Their breathing slowed until they stopped breathing at all. Their hands became slippery like they were covered in vaseline. Then I started seeing through them. They weren't completely transparent but they were becoming like jellyfish.
