Stud Muffin looked from person to person, scrutinizing them. But still no one spoke up.
"Fine," he said, spinning around and pressing buttons on his device. "No one wants to tell me? Then suffer the consequences."
The mother who spoke up earlier, whose two sons were shortly later turned into her two daughters, suddenly giggled.
Everyone looked in her direction and were stunned to see the attractive woman of mixed African and Asian race begin to twirl her black hair with her finger and get a glassy vapid look in her eyes.
"Like, what is everyone staring at?" the mother asked, sounding like a total ditz.
Stud Muffin turned towards the onlookers. "Whoever's using magic, speak up now, or I'll make more women like this airheaded moron right here," he said, gesturing towards the mother, who giggled. "I'm sure you don't want that."
Jon almost spoke up. But he stopped himself when he thought about how much more power Stud Muffin could have if he found out about the stone. He could always just wish everyone back to normal later. But then again, what if Stud Muffin changed them (including Jon himself) so much that he forgot about the stone? He was in quite a bind. What should Jon do?
