...as the game goes on, Jessica soon notices that Luke seems to be winning and in a couple of turns he may so that, though as she is thinking this footsteps come from the stairs and to the door. After a couple of knocks on the door it swings open and their mum walks in. Luke looks up to see her staring down at them and what they are doing, "Having fun?" she says finally.
They pause for a second looking at each other before Luke looks up and says, "were just playing a game of connect four mum." Meanwhile as Luke explains to Mum, Jessica places some of the coins into the slots as Luke is too busy talking.
"Okay, well tea's ready soon make sure your done by then", she replies while she closes the door.
Luke looks back down at the game and see's something's wrong, "what did you do?" he asks as the game begins to glow.
"I added some pieces, I didn't want you to win", she exclaims as the years she took roll back.
"Did you read all the rules?" he inquires as the effects that are happening to Jessica are doing the reverse to him, "It states that if someone cheats the main difference between the players is equalised, so because you cheated the main difference, which is our age is equalised out!"
"Oh no, that means both of us will be 13 years old!" Jessica exclaims.
"Physically and mentally" Luke adds.
They both pause as the changes take effect. Jessica's body shifts and shrinks her breasts deflate into what could be described as AAA-cup, though the mounds that are left are nothing more than the equivalent of a boy the same age. While Luke grows taller his physique doesn't change much, his plump body becomes slimmer and his chubby face becomes slimmer as he turns from a toddler to a child. Jessica becomes shorter and her waist and hips equal out making her once curvy figure into a more straight one.
After the effects of the changes begin to stop, they look at each other and see similar figures looking back at each other. One with auburn hair that trailed down her back and on the floor, the other with dark brown hair that is in an average boy cut.
"Well what do we do now?" Says Luke sarcastically.
"Look if you hadn't have convinced me to play a second game we wouldn't be in this situation!" Jessica shouts back.
"Don't but the blame on me, you decided to cheat!" Luke shouts back.
Footsteps are heard from the stairs, Luke and Jessica look at each other knowing mum will open the door any second. As they thought the door opens and mum stands their asking, "What are you too arguing about?"
They look up at their mum and Luke says, "she cheated" in a whiny tone.
"I haven't known any twins that moan at each other more than you too do" She replies to them, picking up the game and its box.
"TWINS?" They say in unison, with shocked expressions on their faces.
"Yes you may not want to believe it but you two were born on the same day. Though you are not identical twins, so I could say you are just brother and sister." their mum explains, "any way dinners ready and where are the rest of the pieces that go with the game?" She looks around and sees the necklaces around the twins necks "give me those necklaces, I'm taking this game off you too till you calm down". She takes the necklaces off them both and walks out of the room, "Come on then." The two of them get up and follow their mum wondering what's going to happen next.
After dinner is over Luke looks at Jessica and says, "We need to get that game off mum before she does anything, after you played with it against her she might still know about what it does."
