tel eht skarp eunitnoc! (you'll understand that when you read the chapter)
Puck walked down the street skulkily. He was wearing a long overcoat, with a hat pulled low over his eyes, like a detective. He looked to his left, then to his right. Then he walked briskly down the street, trying not to draw attention to himself. He walked down the sidewalk, stealing a cookie from a person he passed by.
Puck came to a payphone. He walked up to it, picked the phone up, and put a few coins in the machine. this has to work, Puck thought to himself. If he didn't start winning soon, his reputation could be on the line. He carefully pressed the Grimm's phone number, and waited. Puck hated waiting. Almost as much as he hated baths. Sabrina had really provoked him with the magic soap prank, but the joke was on her. With Puck's newfound cleanness, the Old Lady wasn't hounding him to take a bath.
A voice on the other end said, "Hello?" It was Grimm. Perfect.
"Um, yes," Puck said, his voice disguised curticey of a spell from puppet boy minion "I'm from the statistics for small cities and I would like to ask you a few questions".
There was a pause, then Sabrina said "Ok".
Puck pulled out a peice of paper from his pocket and began to read.

sabrina's pov of what happened
Sabrina was sitting on the couch with Daphne, plotting their next prank. Sabrina never thought she would say this, but pranking was fun. She could see why Puck enjoyed it so much.
Suddenly, the phone rang. "I'll get it!," Sabrina shouted and ran to answer it. The Grimm's house phine was imensly old. It was one of those phines that have the little wheel on them that you have to spin around for each number. Sabrina, heck the whole Grimm fmily had tried to persuade Granny to get a new one but she insisted that the one they had worked just fine.
Sabrina picked up the phone and said "Hello?"
The voice on the other end said, "Um, yes, I'm from the Statistics for Small Cities and I would like to ask you a few questions".
Sabrina thought about that. She had never heard of that organization before. But what harm could it do? "Ok," Sabrina said.
The voice cleared his throat. "Tuma wooku mak".
"Um, I'm sorry, could you repeat that?," Sabrina said.
"Baba yalke. Ray boo faw," the voice said. Sabrina looked at the phone. Sabrina hoped it was the phone that was broken, then Granny would finally get a new one.
"Goo too bay sue esrever," the voice stopped.
Sabrina had figure out what was going on here. "Era uoy ko rik?," Sabrina clapped a hand to her mouth. Was that her? "Stahw gniog no?," she said. Sabrina hung up the phone.
"What's going on?," Daphne asked. "Why are you talking like that?"
"I thnod wonk!," Sabrina said. "Nac uoy xif ti Enhpad?"
"I have no idea what you said, but I need to fix it," Daphne said. She pulled Sabrina into the kitchen and sat her down. Daphne ran off and when she came back she was holding a HUGE book. I mean a larger than life biggest-book- the-world-has-ever-seen book.
"There's a spell for everything," Daphne said, quoting their Uncle Jake. Sabrina groaned.
"First things first," Daphne said. "We have to figure out exactly what it is that's wrong with you. Say ahhh".
"hhhaaaa," Sabrina said. Daphne raised an eyebrow.
"Interesting," she said. "You seem to be talking backward".
"Llew, woh od ew ekam ti pots?," Sabrina said.
"If you just asked how we make it stop, I have no idea".
Sabrina groaned. She put her head on the table. Who could have done this to her? Sabrina then mentally smacked herself. "Kcup," she said.
Daphne thought for a few minutes, reversing the word in her head. "Oh," she said. "Puck".
"Ti saw rehtona knarp!," Sabrina said.
"Well," Daphne said. "When in doubt, look for a spell to fix it". Daphne then began to flip through the pages, trying one spell after another to try to cure Sabrina. But each one of them failed.
"Siht si reven gniog ot krow," Sabrina said hours later when, obviously, nothing had worked.
"We can't give up Sabrina," Said Daphne, who was starting to understand Sabrina, a little. Daphne closed the book. "We'll try again later".
