17 year old Martin walked into the shop and was amazed at all the weird antiques covering every shelf. He had never noticed this particular shop before and was inexplicably drawn to it.
He was just window-shopping when he came upon some sort of wand.
The handle was made out of what appeared to be a deteriorated tree branch with an amber at the end. Frozen within the curious amber was a small frog.
“Ah good eye, I see you’ve found the Oogli wand.” The shop keeper lady said, startling Martin.
“Oh I’m sorry I was just looking. What was that? The ugly what?” Martin asked.
“My apologies, you’re clearly more familiar with it’s common name: the ugly stick. Anything that touches that amber at the end will warp in a hideous manner. It even works on individual body parts. Perfect for punishing your enemies.”
Martin held the the cursed thing as far away from himself as he could. “Is it permanent!?”
The lady laughed at his reaction “ Well the effects will last indefinitely, unless counteracted by another item.”
The woman turned around and rummaged through another pile of items. “I think I have it somewhere around- oh here it is!”
She then held out a small rectangular mirror with a pastel blue handle and small crystals etched in the back.
“The handsome hand-mirror. Simply make contact with the afflicted area and it and will undo the work of the Oogli Wand. Please allow me to demonstrate.” She held out her hand as Martin slowly handed her the Oogli stick.
“First, I say the part I want to change. If you don’t specify it will just change the entire subject by default.”
She cleared her throat. “ Ahem, “Hand.””
she then tapped her hand on the stick and it began to glow. Martin watched in both awe and disgust as the woman’s finger nails grew yellow and dirty. Some warts appeared on her hand and it’s veins became more slightly more visible as the skin tightened.
“Quite unattractive if I do say so myself. Now just one tap with the mirror and- *ding*”
As fast as the hand transformed before, it returned back to it’s original state. The lady’s manicure even looked a little nicer than before.
“So what do you think? Are you interested in these items young man?”
