"...I wish I would grow some huge bat wings out of my back."
Zoe dropped the rock on the bed as she was suddenly gripped with incredible pain. She fell forward on the bed and gripped the black sheets tightly in her slender teenage fists. She wanted to scream but she felt as if the wind had been knocked out of her, but her mouth was open wide as the last of the air left her ribcage.
Zoe's back spasmed and the bones in the spine started crawling around on their own. Entirely new bones began to grow and shift under her skin. The framework of her new wings began to push their way out, but they pulled her white skin with them. What looked like a huge hump began to inflate on her back as she writhed in pain, face down on the bed.
Tears began to streak out of Zoe's eyes, taking the black eyeliner with them, leaving dark lines behind as the tears left her face. Suddenly there was a pop as her bra clasps finally gave way to the increasing mass on her back. It was quickly followed by a shredding sound of her tank top, fishnet overtop and some of her skin as the new grey bat wings exploded out of her clothes.
The new wings were grey and translucent from the backlight of her bedside lamp. The wings easily brushed the ceiling of the room from her position on the bed. The large angular protrusions slowly descended from their triumphant position and softly fell across the bed as they relaxed while Zoe gently sobbed.
Zoe didn't know how long she took to collect herself enough to glance up from the bed and look at herself in the full length mirror on the closet door. But as she lifted her torso up, the wings came with it, still extended. Zoe was in shock, she had just what she had accidentally wished for, two huge bat wings.
Zoe was now officially a freak of nature.
