"Is it real?" asked one of the men.

"Are you kidding me? This is the real deal. I mean, I know it's hard to believe that something like this could be real, but here it is. And Robinson told us where and when to pick it up. Remember that fact. If he says it exists, then I believe him. You should too." This second man was the one Jon met earlier, the one who stole Jon's stone.

"I do. I do. It just sounds like a fantastic tale, that's all."

"Maybe we could try it out ..."

"Don't even think about it. Ms. Summers is coming. Robinson told us to wait until she gets here."

"Okay, fine."

"You didn't already use it, did you?"

"Of course not." Which was a lie. He did make one wish: I wish that no one would be able to take this stone away from me, without my permission.

"Good. Robinson said that no one shall make ANY wishes until Ms. Summers gets here."


Meanwhile, outside the room among the crates and boxes of the warehouse, Jon and Karyn stood silently, until Jon spoke up.

"Who's this Robinson they're talking about? Or Ms. Summers?" Jon whispered.

"I don't know. But more importantly, what are they gonna use the stone for?"

"I don't know, maybe ... wait a minute. They're coming out."

Two men, one walking and the other in a wheelchair, came out of the office.

The one walking said "Are you sure you didn't hear something?"

"Yeah, I'm sure. Trust me, no one knows that we're here."

"You mean except Robinson."

"Quit being so paranoid."

"You have to be at least a little paranoid around THAT guy."

"Come on, let's just go back into the office. Ms. Summers should be here soon, anyway. Harry? Harry, where are you going?"

Harry walked towards Jon and Karyn, who were still standing silently behind some crates. "I know I heard something." Harry looked down at the stone in his hand and had an idea. If he could make one wish with the stone, what's wrong with making two?

Jon and Karyn held their breath as Harry moved ever closer to where they were.

Harry grasped the stone, and in a whisper said "I wish that whoever is there would come out so I can see you." But, because of Jon's "limitation" on the stone, Harry will be getting more than he wanted.
