But first, Kathy wanted to lose a few years (currently, she was about thirty years old), but not all of them, back to her original age of seventeen. Perhaps she could make herself, say, twenty? That would mean that she would only be a few years older than her original age, but wouldn't have to be in high school anymore. She would technically be considered a young woman, instead of a teenage girl.
"I wish I was twenty years old," she said. The stone glowed, granting her wish.
