I was minding my own business one day while my brother Cody and his girlfriend Bailey were being all lovey dovey. We were currently on the S.S. Tipton waiting for our arrival to Ireland. Suddenly Mr. Moseby, the cruise director and my favorite target to torment and perform pranks toward. I then noticed that he was carrying some sort of package in his hand. It wasn't particularly large, smaller than a shoebox even. I don't think it was a booby trap that I set on his desk. I surely do not remember putting anything of that size anywhere unless it what was inside the box was a prank.
"This package just arrived for you." He said as he laid it down on the table that we were sitting at it. He then promptly walked away.
"Okay now that was a bit odd." I remarked as I looked over the package. "It's addressed to both of us. And it's from Arwin."
"What did Arwin send us?" Cody asked.
"I don't know. I don't have x-ray vision. Though, that would be sweet if I did." I responded as I thought of all the fun x-ray vision could lead to. "Give me your knife and I'll open it."
Cody produced his Wilderness Scouts pocket knife from his pocket. That was one of many things that he had in there. He handed it to me and I cut open the box. I opened it and pulled out some sort of weird statue. Also with it was a note.
"Zack and Cody, please contact me as soon as you receive this package, Arwin." I read. "Hmm guess we should go and talk to Arwin."
"We can go use my laptop in my room." Cody suggested. "I hope you don't mind but this might interrupt our date, Bailey."
"I don't mind at all." Bailey replied. "I'm actually interested in seeing where this is going to go. Isn't Arwin known for making crazy inventions?"
"Yeah he once made this alternate universe transporter that took us to a universe where he was a rock star, London was smart and Maddie was the airheaded heiress of the Fitzpatrick hotel." Cody explained. That was an interesting weekend.
"If I hadn't been possessed by an evil queen, I probably wouldn't believe you." Bailey admitted as we walked into Cody's room. Cody opened his laptop and contacted Arwin, who amazingly answered. The only problem was he wasn't wearing a shirt. It was not pretty.
"Arwin could please put a shirt on?" I requested.
Arwin went through his dresser and tried on several shirts before returning to the webcam.
"So what are you guys calling about?" Arwin asked.
"We got this thing you sent us." Cody said as I held up the statue. "What is it?"
"Oh it's supposed to be some ancient relic." Arwin answered. "It grants the person holding it one wish. I couldn't think of any use for it so I sent it to you guys. You probably could find a use for it."
"I'm surprised you didn't ask it to make our mom in love with you." I stated.
"I did not think of that actually." Arwin said. "Oh well it belongs to you guys now."
Cody then closed the video chat window.
"Okay so this thing grants a wish." I remarked. "Hmm what do I want to wish for?"
"Why do you think you are entitled to a wish?" Cody questioned. Why did he have to be so annoying?
"Shush I'm trying to think of a wish." I told him. "You know what I really wish for is to be able to look at a beautiful girl's face every morning when I wake up."
"I can't believe that you would waste a wish on something so perverted." Cody scolded me.
"Chill out bro." I said to him. "Relax. It looks like it's not even doing anything."
Suddenly the statue started to glow. Now it was definitely doing something. Cody and Bailey looked on in awe and a bright light suddenly filled the room. I watched them turn their heads to look away before I felt a series of very strange sensations in my body. It felt like I was getting shorter but my legs were growing longer. Speaking of growing longer, my hair felt that way. Parts of my body seemed to grow and other parts seemed to shrink. My shorts seemed a lot shorter and my shirt seemed a lot tighter. Just as suddenly as the light appeared, it also disappeared.
As I looked around the room, I suddenly found myself at a loss of balance and fell to the floor. I got up and looked over at Cody and Bailey. Both of them seemed to be looking at me strangely but I couldn't figure out why.
"Well that was strange." I commented. My voice didn't sound quite right. I also noticed that both of them seemed taller. Cody was already taller than me but this seemed more drastic and Bailey was not taller than me. What just happened?
"Zack, I think you need to look in the mirror." Bailey stammered.
I looked into Cody's mirror and saw a girl with long blonde hair wearing a green sweater and Daisy Dukes. As if I wasn't looking in a mirror, I lifted my arm and the girl in the mirror did the same. Upon total and complete that it was a mirror, I did the obvious thing. I screamed.
So this is my first story. I've always wondered how the show would be different if Zack was a girl. But rather than having be born as one I thought it would be more humorous if he turned into one. Anyone said girl is played by Hayden Panettiere. And I thought it would be fitting if Bailey knew because Zack was the first to find out that she was a girl. I would love to get some reviews.
