Jean stood up, and then began to morph back into her normal form of Jon, dressed in Jon's normal clothes. The whole process took only a few seconds. Jon walked to the center of the room. He addressed everyone present, which included not just Sarah and Kevin, but Nicole, Mickey, and the employees gathered behind the counter. (Nicole, of course, knew what was going on, but Mickey and the employees were confused and nervous. As per the plan, Nicole would just pretend to know nothing until the time was right for her to intervene).
"I see you've all been listening in." he said to the onlookers. "As I'm sure you have found out, Sarah, and as I'm sure the rest of you have guessed, I'm the one responsible for the disappearance of all the world's weapons of mass destruction. Really, they should have been disposed of decades ago, but no one who actually wanted to dispose of them had the resources to get rid of them all, until now."
"I didn't stop there, either. I've removed all uranium, enriched or otherwise, and erased all instructions on how to construct nuclear weapons or other weapons of mass destruction. And just before I arrived here, I sent all the world's guns, cannons, and gunpowder on a one-way trip to a distant sun, where they'll all explode or melt harmlessly. This means there'll be no fireworks next Fourth of July and New Year's, but that's a small price to pay for world peace. If people still want to shoot each other, they'll have to do it with bows, crossbows, and slingshots."
"Of course, there are still plenty of warmongering sickos out there." Jon continued. "These people claim they want peace, but they're all too willing to go to war and bomb innocent civillians. Well, there are no more bombs so they can't do that anymore. If they want to go to war, the armies they send to fight in their place will have to do it the old-fashioned way: swords, axes, crossbows, catapults, and such. A lot less non-combatants will be hurt this way."
"I don't believe any of this!" exclaimed Mickey, ignoring Nicole's admonishment to be quiet. "There's no way you could have done all of that! You're just a nutcase!"
"You think that, after I shapeshifted from a girl to a boy right in front of you, and Sarah and Kevin were talking about my turning school bullies into cheerleaders or animals?" Jon said, a bit surprised. "Here, let me show you."
And with that, a television set appeared in the center of Dino's Pizza, where none had been before. It was turned on, and tuned to CNN. The anchors were discussing the disappearance of all the world's guns, cannons, and gunpowder with various experts. During the four minutes that followed, Jon turned the channel to other news stations, and they were all covering the same story. Many speculated that this latest turn of events was connected with this morning's disappearance of all the world's weapons of mass destruction.
Sarah finally spoke. "You're trying to make yourself out to be a big hero, aren't you? Ending wars, saving millions of lives. Well, you may have saved millions of lives on this planet, but what about other worlds? Do you know where you sent those nuclear and chemical weapons, Jon?"
"Yes. I sent them to a distant galaxy thousands of light years away where no one on Earth will ever see them again." Jon replied casually.
"Do you know what happened when they arrived at the distant galaxy, Jon? Do you?" Sarah asked. With that, she turned the channel on the TV, using her special powers to transmit the image the wishing stone had placed in her head onto the television screen.
A scene of a strange, alien world appeared on the screen. Silver structures in odd shapes, made from some unknown metal, sat atop dark blue sand. These were cities, inhabited by odd lifeforms. They were short, yellowish creatures with four arms and four legs. But it was clear their social and family structures were similiar to that of Earth humans. All were going about their normal business. And then, the scene shifted to above the cities, just as it had in Sarah's head. Dozens of nuclear weapons, radiological weapons, chemical weapons, and biological weapons materialized in the sky above several of this world's cities.
And then the weapons began raining down on the cities. Everyone at Dino's Pizza (Sarah, Nicole, Jon, Kevin, Mickey, and the six employees) watched in stunned silence as dozens of cities were consumed in mushroom clouds. They saw several of the creatures screaming silently as the flesh burned off of their bodies. It became painfully clear that scenes such as this were happening all over that alien world as the screen kept cutting from city to city. Soon, the screen was showing a complete and total ruin of a world; its cities reduced to radioactive ruins, the pitiful few survivors waiting to die of radiation poisoning or the various plagues unleashed by the chemical and biological weapons.
Nicole was the only one besides Sarah who already knew about this, but this was the first time she had actually seen it. "I think...I think I'm going to be sick." she said, her eyes filled with tears.
Everyone else just stood there in shock as the screen faded to black. "What you have just seen is not science fiction." Sarah said. "It really happened just the way we saw it. And it's all because of you, Jon! You killed them!"
Jon stammered. "I...I didn't mean it. Really I didn't..."
"Just like you didn't mean for Moose to get killed?!" Sarah exclaimed.
"I didn't think this would happen..." Jon said weakly.
"That's just it! You didn't think! You don't think about the consequences of your actions! And with your powers, that makes you very dangerous. Too dangerous to allow you to go on..." Sarah said, glaring at Jon.
Sarah gave Nicole a super-fast glance which no one else (except maybe Jon) noticed. Nicole returned the glance, and then turned to Mickey. "I think things are about to get ugly." Nicole whispered to Mickey. "You'd better run."
Kevin just sat there, still stunned by what he had seen on the screen. He could not believe Jon had been so careless, and he was fearful about what might happen next.
"If you're going to fight, take it outside, please..." said the manager of Dino's behind the counter. His voice was weak, and pleading. He clearly did not want any part of this.
Jon appeared to be trying to compose himself. Everyone watched Jon closely. How was he going to react to both the accusation of genocide and Sarah's thinly-veiled challenge?
And then...
