The girl was just some secretary who had been on her way to work. Her clothes hadn't done a good job of hiding her fit and busty body, though, so it was only a little surprising as they vanished in a blink and left her nude in the middle of a crowded street during most people's lunch hour!
Almost immediately, she caused a commotion as several people around her suddenly noticed the naked blonde. She screamed as the cold air hit her and attempted to cover up her curvaceous body. A small crowd gathered as I saw the old lady staring at me and chuckling from her seat as the bus drove by, and suddenly panic set in.
This ring was real!
Quickly, I thought of the repercussions of trying to explain this mess. After all, somebody's clothes just didn't vanish in real life, and I didn't want to be pegged as the guy responsible even if that seemed pretty unlikely.
"I wish I hadn't of done that." I said quickly, and in a flash it was as if the last five minutes had never occured. The secretary continued down the street, clothed, and life went off. To my confusion, though, the bus drove past me a second time, this time with the old lady laughing as her eyes met mine. She shook her finger at me in mock admonishment and waved good-bye as the bus vanished around a corner.
I stood by the bus stop, wide eyed, and looked down at my hand.
"I wish I'd... never run out of wishes." I said in a near whisper, not wanting to draw attention. The ring responded by gaining a red jewel set into the flat gold where there had been nothing. I smiled a cocky smile and thought of something else.
Did it have limits? "I wish this ring had no limits to what it could do." The gold seemed to shimmer of its own accord for a moment.
Could it read my mind? That would be weird. I silently wished for a hot babe to come up to me and give me her number. Nothing happened. "I wish this ring could read my mind." I said, and then tried again. To my amazement, a leggy brunette walked up and winked at me. She handed me a piece of paper on which a hastily written number had been written and made the universal 'call me' signal with her hand.
I watched her walking away and laughed to myself. Now what should I do with unlimited wishes and power that could be controlled with a mere thought?
