"Jeannie?" Mrs. Bellows asked as she came into the kitchen that morning. Jeannie was nowhere to be found.
"Oh, I'm sorry." She apologized as she came into the kitchen.
"It's alright. But we have to get the girls back tonight. It's been a long time you know, and Alfred's no longer buying the she's spending the night at a friend's house story. And personally, I wouldn't either."
"Well then, you'll be happy to know that I have made some progress in finding them."
"Really, tell me everything."
"Well, I talked to the king of genies, I know that must sound weird, but… well anyway. He said that they are on a deserted island in the pacific."
"I thought that some how we'd already guessed that."
"I know, but now we know that it's true!"
"What, so are we just going to randomly search every island in the pacific? That's insane! It's impossible."
"Not for me."
"Well, I suppose that I should have guessed that too."
When dust finally cleared Jackie was able to breathe again. She all around her, and she realized that Alyssa was nowhere in sight.
"Alyssa? Alyssa?" She called. No answer. Where was she? This was a bad sign, but suddenly she heard someone begin to laugh hysterically. Jackie turned around. It was Alyssa.
"Hey Alyssa. Are you okay?"
"Yeah. Are you?"
"Sure, but what's so funny?"
"I don't know, I just can't stop laughing, that's all."
"Whatever. We have got to get out of here."
"Why? I think that I'm starting to have a pretty good time."
"A pretty good time? Alyssa, we could've gotten ourselves killed last night1"
"You mean that I could've been killed. I thought that you were immortal."
"That's right. I forgot that for a while." She laughed as she turned to face the ocean. The sky was blue and the cool wind blew in her face. She sighed and closed her eyes. When she opened them again she saw a huge ship not far off their coast.
"Yes! We're being rescued!" Alyssa squealed. Jackie was hesitant. She did not have a good feeling about this. She attempted to blink once more. Nothing occurred. Suddenly she heard Alyssa scream she turned around immediately. Alyssa was gone. Her heart began to pound rapidly in her chest. She began to hyperventilate, and then suddenly she felt someone grab her arm and pull her into the shrubs.
