Thinking about the science fair, Jay Duncan, and her mother, Kyla muttered "I wish Mom was more like me, then she'd understand."
Suddenly, the stone began to glow, causing her to look away as if there were something in her eye. When she looked back, the glow from the stone was already fading She dropped the stone on the table, then ran into the living room, which was where her mom was headed, after their short conversation."Mom! Did you see ..." Kyla began to say, but then stopped dead in her tracks
Her mother looked up from the living room chair. "Mom? Jeeze sis...that is NOT funny." A sci-fi novel was in her hand. She was reading? She was reading a book? She was reading a sci-fi book? But that wasn't what stunned Kyla the most. Her mother looked like a teenager. Her usually curled and styled hair was now straight and bristly and pulled back into a ponytail, just like Kyla's hair. And she was wearing glasses. Her mother didn't need glasses. And her clothes were different. They were much less flattering and more ... well ... geeky-looking. Her mother had turned into her sister. But how was that possible?
