"Fine. If it will keep you from bugging me anymore." Mark said taking the note Joy was holding out to him.
Mark the began to read the note out loud. "This Medallion is magic. Touch it to an article of clothing and your body will change into the body of the person that wore it last. If touched to an article of clothing that had never been worn, your body will change to fit that article of clothing. If two people touch the medallion at the same time, their bodies will change into each others."
Joy gasped realizing that that is what happened to her and Jake. They had both touched the medallion at the same time and then they had turned into one another.
Joy looked up realizing that Mark had stopped reading when she had gasped.
"What's up with you? You look like you saw a ghost. Is this BS scaring you? I told you magic isn't real." Mark said looking a little annoyed.
"No. I'm fine. Keep reading."
"The only other thing it says is that each person had to wait 12 hours after a change to be able to use it again. Are we done here?" Mark said trying to hand the note back to Joy.
Joy took the note. "It's not BS Mark." Joy still wasn't sure what it meant, but she was fairly confident that she was using the word correctly here. "The magic of the medallion is real."
"Oh yeah?" Mark said quickly snatching the medallion out of Joy's hand. "Well maybe I should keep it safe for you. We wouldn't want you to lose something so valuable, right?"
"Give it back Mark. It's mine." Joy pleaded trying to grab the medallion back from him.
"You know." Mark said, "If this thing really is magic, maybe I can go back to having my own room to myself again." Mark got up from where he was sitting and left the room, Joy following right behind him.
She followed him down the hall to the next room which she quickly discovered must be Abby's room based on how it was decorate. She watched as Mark open on of the dresser drawers and pulled out a pink onesie.
"What are you doing?" Joy asked.
"Well shrimp." Mark said with a sneer, "the way I see it, if I don't have a little brother, I would have my room to myself again."
"Wait, you mean...?" Joy started to ask.
"Yep. If this thing really is real magic, I'm soon going to have two baby sisters and you can share a room with Abby."
