Over the next couple of months Katie's life was normal, at least as normal as a girl with an age controlling ring could be. Katie and her friends were enjoying fifth grade despite an old crotchety teacher named Karen Morgan. Katie had thought about changing Karen Morgan's age but had not had the opportunity yet. She hoped with Halloween coming on Saturday the opportunity was available since the girls had discovered where she lived.
That was something that was going to be discussed as the group got ready to spend the night at Claudia's. The girls had not had a chance to be all together since the summer. After Samantha decided to become ten their was a little bit of tension between the group. Claudia was shocked that Samantha had decided to relive her childhood. When Sammy tried to explain that she did it to relive her entire life with soulmate Claudia only shook her head. Tricia was the one who took it the hardest. Sammy and Tricia were always close and when Sammy decided to be a kid again Tricia took it personal. Since then the group had not all been together at the same time. Katie hoped that this Halloween weekend would change things.
As Kellie pulled into Claudia's driveway she began to think about her options. Claudia and Mika had mentioned that the local college usually had some pretty good Halloween parties that the girls could go to if they wanted to relive college. Sammy mentioned that she had heard from Jacob that the high school kids were having a party in the woods for Halloween. Finally Mary mentioned Karen Morgan's home if the girls wanted to be kids for Halloween and make Karen relive her childhood. All these options were tempting and as Katie saw Claudia open the front door and wave she knew the girls would have a difficult decision in front of them.
