"I wish I knew what was going on," Scarlet said. Suddenly, she knew exactly what was going on. It was a wish chain! Through the use of a magic stone, a wish chain had been created, spreading across the town of Lake Point like an epidemic, causing reality to be changed along the way. Most people didn't even know it was happening, and others were confused by changes caused by their own wishing.
Not only did Scarlet know about the wish chain, she also knew which people had yet to make wishes. Popular girl Zoe Merlin had two wishes, slut Sabrina Johnson had two wishes, hippie Steve Farber had one wish, hippie Danielle Chase had one wish, geek Leonard Drullers had one wish, four drug-users named Will, Shirley, Nancy, and Darren each had one wish, and then there was Scarlet herself, who also had one wish (since the target of her recent wish was herself).
