Kylie was in a dilemma. It was the first day of the beauty pageant, and she didn't know which dress she should wear. There were four that her friends had helped her modify. One was a yellow strapless dress with white lace, the next was an orange and purple backless dress, the third was a dark blue halter dress that had a light blue belt, and the last one was a red spaghetti strap dress that seemed to sparkle in the light. Each dress had a sash that said "Miss Zoo" on it. That was the name Kylie had chosen for the pageant. Kylie just couldn't decide, they all looked so beautiful! She only had one hour until she was supposed to be at the pageant, and she felt very fortunate to live just ten minutes away from her school. "Maybe I should ask Marlene. Hey Marlene!" Kylie called into the living room. Marlene emerged from the doorway, wearing a red skirt, a little sparkly tiara, and pearl earrings. "Yes Kylie?" Marlene replied. "Could you please help me chose which dress to wear for the pageant?" Kylie asked. Marlene studied the dresses and then thought a moment. "Well, I like that red one the best." Marlene answered. Kylie changed into the red dress using her morphing power, put on a pair of red high heels, and walked out of her bedroom to have Alice do her hair and make-up. Kylie grabbed some of her favorite jewelry on the way out. She had these earrings shaped like tiny red roses that she loved, a golden necklace with a red rose that matched the earrings, and golden bracelets that she got as a present from Percy Bobby. When Kylie walked into the living room, she examined everyone. Since she was "Miss Zoo", all of her zoo friends were going to be part of some of the show. The penguins were wearing tuxedos, The lemurs had on little bowties, the rest of her zoo friends had on bowties too, and the girl animals wore skirts and earrings. Kylie's four best friends were waiting too, dressed in strapless dresses of their signature colors. Alice, who is normally wearing either her zoo uniform or a red T-Shirt with black pants was wearing a red skirt and black blouse with red roses. "Hey guys. I'm ready for my hair to be done." Kylie announced. "Wow, you look amazing!" Dexter said astonished. "You're a real beaut." Joey commented. "Yeah, you're the prettiest girl on the east side of the Mississippi!" Darla exclaimed. "What?" Max and Dexter both said at the same time. "It means that Kylie is beautiful!" The Heart Girls and Macy informed. Kylie pushed her black glasses higher up on her nose. "Thanks guys, but it's not the outsied that counts. It's what's on the inside that really matters." Kylie thanked. "C'mon Kylie, you need your hair and make-up done." Alice reminded as she dragged Kylie into the bathroom. "What do you want done to your hair? Do you want it curled, crimped, or straightened?" Alice asked her niece. "I want it straightened please. Don't forget that August 11th is my twelveth birthday." Kylie replied. Alice plugged in the straightening iron and began to straightne Kylie's shoulder length reddish blond hair. "I won't forget. Kylie, I'm sure you can do big things with your abilities. I'm just wondering, are you girls ever going to give away your secret identity?" Alice asked. Kylie thought about it. "Well, we might give it away when we're older, but we don't want the paparazzi around." Kylie explained. "Don't worry, you can threaten the paparazzi with your super abilities!" Alice joked. They both laughed, and soon Kylie's hair was done. "What kind of make-up do you want Kylie?" Alice asked. "Well, I'd like brown eye shadow, a light coat of red lipstick, and some light rouge." Kylie replied. Alice did Kylie's make-up, and soon she was done. The lipstick Kylie was wearing was the same kind that Alice always wore, except it was a lighter coat. Kylie ran out of the bathroom, everyone piled into the car, and they all drove off to Bonita Middle School. Little did Kylie know, but there would be somebody at the pageant that she wouldn't get along with...
