"Well, I for one would like to be 40," said Jennifer. "It's only 6 years younger but I'll still look hot and a little fresher in the face."
"40? Not younger?" asked Robert.
"Yeah. I can't explain it, but something about being an adult, fully in charge of my faculties that gets me off," replied Jennifer. "Plus, I am older than my mom. We can have some fun with that when she gets home later."
"You got it," said Bobby, as he activated the ring's power. Soon enough, although barely noticeable, Jennfier was returned to 40 years old.
"What about you Ash?" Bobby asked the 56-year old with the dull blonde hair. "How old?"
"Well dear, if you don't mind, I'd like to be a teenager again," Ashley replied. "I haven't gotten enough use out of that body just yet."
"Sure thing, Robert replied.
"Bob, wait a sec," Jennifer said. She pulled Bobby aside and whispered something in his ear. He smiled and nodded.
"What's the hold up?" Ashley asked.
"Nothing," Bobby said. "Here we go.
Bobby gestured with his ring and it glowed with power. Ashley went over to the mirror to watch the changes.
For a few minutes, it seemed like nothing was happening, aside from Ashley feeling a little dizzy.
"Hey, what's going on?" Ashley asked? "I look older, not younger!"
Actually, physically she was still 56.
"How old were you?" Bobby asked.
"You know I was 40! I asked you to make me a teenager, not an old lady!" Ashley replied. The truth didn't -- and would not -- dawn on her ... she was regessing to a teen alright, but only mentally.
"This is awesome!" Jennifer said as she watched her friend's confusion.
"No it's not!" Ashley replied. "I look old! Like over 50!"
"And how old were you again?" Jennifer asked.
"You know I was 23!" Ashley replied. "Hey, when did you two get so old? You look like adults too!"
Bobby ceased use of the ring as he sensed that Ashley now had the mental capacity of a 15-year-old. She turned and again looked in the mirror and saw a body that, by her reckoning, was 41 years older than it should be.
"Ew, I look gross!" the 56 year old said in the pentamiter of a teen. "Like this is the worst thing ever! No boy will wanna date me looking like a gramma!"
"Well, what do you want us to do about it?" Jennifer asked.
"Make me YOUNG!!!" Ashley screamed.
"No prob," Bobby said. And with a thought, and a gesture of his ring, Ashley rapidly mentally regressed to 3 years of age.
She stood there still for a minute, than blinked. The 56-year-old woman smiled shyly at the nude 40 year-old woman in front of her.
"Jenny big!" she said, still seeming to recall what happened to her friend, although things in her much younger brain were jumbled.
"That's right, Jenny is big," Bobby said. "Now, look in the mirror and tell Uncle Bobby what you see."
The girl in the woman's body turned and looked. "I grown up!" She proudly declared. All modesty gone, she didn't care that the body in the mirror was 53 years older than she thought she was. All she saw was a gown up like her mommy and daddy.
Bobby turned to Jennifer. "What's next?" he asked.
"Let's make love some more baby," the 40-year-old replied. "But first, I want you to ... "
