"It's some ring? I don't know where she could've gotten it from it's not one of mine." Her mother wondered. "It's a good thing I found this she could've tried to eat this." Her mother sighed, nonchalantly sliding the ring on her right hand.
"That thing must've changed me... oh god, what's gonna happen now?" Stacy thought in fear as she stared up at her mother.
"Well anyway,..." Her mother continued. "Brian actually joined the boy scouts." She said into the phone.
Once again, Stacy felt odd before the feeling passed.
"Oh no, was that the feeling again? Did something change?" She wondered. Soon, her questions would be answered as the door made an unclogging noise.
CLICK the door creaked upon being unlocked.
"Whoops! Hold on Rhianna I'll call you back." She chuckled, having no intention of calling back suddenly.
"Sure Vanessa I'll-" Rhianna could be heard on the phone before her mother hung up.
The door opened and Stacy's eyes widened in confusion. In walked in a girl, no older than 14. She had curly red hair down to her shoulders, a blue school uniform on from the same school as Brian's, and a side strapped backpack. Stacy's confusion dissipated, replaced with shock as she finally realized who the girl looked like.
"Hi mom." The girl glumly greeted.
"Hi Brianna." Her mother greeted, sounding more hushed and sincere.
"Brian.... no, no freaking way." Stacy thought in disbelief.
"Well, it's done, I... I quit the girl scouts." She sighed, nearly crying.
"Oh, sweetie are you alright?" Their mother asked the now female Brian.
Just like that, Stacy AGAIN felt the odd feeling quickly before it passed, then Brian... or rather, Brianna's, expression changed. Her lips formed a smile, and any signs of tearing up vanished instantly.
"Yup, never better!" She answered before asking off towards the kitchen.
"What the hell..." Stacy thought. "Ok ok Stacy you gotta figure this out. Mom asked a question, the feeling came back, then Brian... or whoever that is seemed to totally change their feeling... like opposite of what it was!" She realized. The pieces came into place, seeming to make sense for Stacy.
She realized that it all started when she jokingly told her Mom off by referring to herself as NOT a baby, then she WAS a baby. Then she told Rhianna that Brian joined the boy scouts, and suddenly Brian is Brianna and LEAVING the GIRL scouts. Finally, her mom asked if "she" was ok, when she wasn't, and then she suddenly WAS ok.
"God, it sounds crazy, but, but that ring must make things said the opposite." Stacy realized.
She glanced down, trying her best to clench her tiny, pudgy fists. She wondered why only she was seemingly aware, but she figured it didn't matter much. What really mattered was getting herself, and now Brian, back to normal.
"Ma, do we have apples?" Brianna asked.
"No honey we don't." Her mother responded.
Stacy felt the feeling, and then Brianna opened the top cabinet in the kitchen to find a pile of apples.
"Thanks Mom, they're right where you said they were." Brianna thanked before walking towards Stacy. "Why hello widdle girl, how are YOU?" Brianna asked, kneeling down towards Stacy.
Stacy tried to tell Brian who she really was, who SHE really was, anything, but all that came out were gurgles.
"My aren't we talkative?" She laughed.
That's when Stacy realized her what best bet was. She just had to get her mother's attention. If she called her a baby or a child or anything like that she could turn back to normal, or at least to a state in which she could ask to see or use the ring! She continued to babble, waving her arms around in an attempt to attract her mom's attention.
"Wow, crazy, hey Mom come over here." Brianna called to her mother, who was about to walk towards the bathroom. She turned back and walked up next to Brianna, staring down at Stacy. Stacy kept it up, trying to get her to comment on anything.
"What's up with her huh?" Brianna asked.
That's when Vanessa said...
