Jon saw the look in Karyn's eyes. We've got to find some way out of this!, her look told him. She was clearly trying her best not to panic.
But how had they gotten into this? Jon realized that Karyn believed that Jon's last wish had caused this, but she couldn't say it in front of the police officers or else they would think she was crazy. And no one wanted police officers to think they were crazy unless they wanted to be locked up, which Karyn most certainly didn't.
Jon was trying very hard not to panic himself. What was that last wish again?
It was a careless accidental wish. For the past few days, they had tried to fix the problem with Karyn's expanded breasts. He didn't know why the wish for her breasts to be 'falsies' didn't work, and was so out of ideas that he had said out loud that he had tried everything short of saying 'I wish you had a male body'. Both Jon and Karyn panicked, expecting Karyn to turn into a man or something. But instead, police officers arrived saying they wanted to take Karyn in for questioning because they found a dead man in her bedroom.
"We'd like you to come along quietly, Ms. Black." said one of the officers, Danielle Chase.
Karyn merely nodded. What could she do?
But Jon was still holding the wishing stone. If the wishing stone got them into this mess, it could get them out of it. Wishes couldn't be directly reversed, but they could be worked around. Jon came up with what he hoped was a good-sounding wish, and then spoke softly. "I wish..."
