Vinnie was working on his valedictory speech, but his mind kept straying to thoughts of Ryan and his
transformation. Then his phone rang.
"Hello, Vincent,I got your voice message. Now what seems to be the problem?"
"Well, it's about that medallion you gave me. Is there any chance it might be magical?"
"Why do you ask?"
"Well, I think it accidentally transformed a kid at school into a jockstrap, Grandmama," Vinnie said.
"What? No, that's impossible. The medallion's only magical power is as ward to deflect evil magic. If that
boy changed into a jockstrap then he was the witch trying to transform you into a jockstrap, and the spell
backfired."
"What?"
"Well, I went to that palmist on the edge of town last week, and she warned me-"
"Wait isn't that Ryan Standish's grandmother?"
"Yes, it is why?"
"What did she warn you?"
"She saw that I was under threat of a magical curse, so she sold me that medallion to protect you from evil
magic. You know she's descended from powerful witches."
"Well, the guy who became the jockstrap is her grandson Ryan."
"Oh, my. I'm going to cut short my trip and come straight home to sort things out."
"So Ryan's a witch," Vinnie said softly.
