The Three Wishes
Late one afternoon, Mrs. Kuzenetsov was eating lunch when her son, Bryan, burst in sneering at someone behind him. Although he was only six, Bryan was a bully. He had lilac hair (that he insisted was purple), and gray eyes. He also had sharper canines then other people and was taller then most kids his age. Byran was a very troublesome kid. She sometimes wondered if that was because he wanted a father like other kids he knew. Everyday, someone would knock on their door with their black and blue son, or their daughter's mangled doll. Everyone hated Bryan and Bryan hated everyone.
After lunch, Mrs. Kuzenetsov was cleaning the attic when she found this weird looking, dusty, old bottle. Curious what it was, she opened it. Suddenly, this small fairy flew out.
"Oh! Thank you!" cried the fairy. "An evil magician trapped me in there a thousand years ago! I thought I would be trapped in there forever! As a reward, here, take this ring. As long as you have it on, any three wishes you say will come true. After you make your three wishes, the ring to come back to me. But I advise you say your wishes carefully, say exactly what you want. Again, I thank you very much. Farewell now." (this fairy talks fast...)
With that, the tiny fairy disappeared in a flash of light. Mrs. Kuzenetsov stared at the ring in shock before slowly slipping it on her finger. Then she noticed it was getting late and bustled down to make dinner. When dinner was ready, Bryan, as usual, was not here and had probably left to torture some innocent person. She was pondering the odd event that happened in the attic, when there was a furious pounding at the door. Mrs. Kuzenetsov got up and opened the door. To her surprise, a police officer was standing there holding Bryan in front of him. The most shocking thing however was that Bryan was handcuffed.
"Hello. I'm Officer Howell. I ... "
"Officer! What happened! Why is my son in handcuffs!"
"Ma'am, are you aware that your son sells illegal drugs?"
"WHAT!"
Mrs. Kuzenetsov stared at Bryan.
"How...but...he's only six!" 1
When the police only shrugged, she turned to Bryan desperately.
"Bryan, were you really selling drugs?"
Bryan smirks. "Yea. So what? It's a great way of earning money."
Mrs. Kuzenetsov gasped and fainted. When she woke up later on, she found out that the police decided to let Bryan off this time, but if he ever did it again, he would be in big trouble. She breathed a sigh of relief and hugged Bryan, who growled at her. Then she got angry.
"BRYAN! HOW COULD YOU! WHAT IN THE WORLD POSESSED YOU TO BUY AND SELL DRUGS! WHERE DID YOU EVEN GET THEM FROM IN FIRST PLACE!"
"I don't have to tell you anything woman."
"BRYAN KUZENETSOV! DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH TROUBLE YOU ARE IN! DO YOU EVEN KNOW HOW MUCH TROUBLE YOU CAUSE US! YOU ARE SO INFURIATING THAT, SOETIMES, I WISH YOU WERE DEAD!"
As soon as the words left her mouth, the ring glowed and and there was a flash of light. When everything cleared, Bryan was laying on the floor dead. Mrs. Kuzenetsov gasped and fainted again. When she came to, the police was in the room.
"What...what happened?"
"That's what I would like to ask you Ma'am. According to your neighbor here, she saw a bright flash of light coming from your house that near blinded her and when she opened the door, she saw you faint and immediately called 911. So can you tell me what happened?"
"I...I don't know..."
After the police left, Mrs. Kuzenetsov started crying again.
"I...I wish Bryan was alive again, even if he turns out to be a zombie."
Once again, her ring glowed and there was another flash of light. When everything cleared this time, she saw a weird zombie Bryan. He was a ghostly pale gray color with glowing red eyes, very sharp fangs and claws and he was wearing old dirty torn up clothes. Zombie Bryan also gave off a putrid smell that made her gag. Mrs. Kuzenetsov stared petrified at zombie Bryan wondering how in the world that could be Bryan. Then it hit her. When she said, 'I wish Bryan was alive again, even if he turns out to be a zombie', the ring must have thought that she wanted him to be brought back to life as a zombie.
"NO! I DON'T WANT MY SON TO BE A ZOMBIE! CHANGE HIM BACK! Wait, um, I wish that my son never died and that he's not a zombie anymore!"
For the third time, bright light flashed and when it all cleared, an angry and grumpy looking Bryan was there glaring at his mom.
"What in the world are you doing, lying on the floor and wailing some nonsense about me being dead? Do I look dead to you!"
"BRYAN! YOU'RE BACK TO NORMAL!"
"Back to normal? What are you babbling about? Have you finallygone crazy?"
After that Mrs. Kuzenetsov burst into tears again. Bryan storted and stomp off.
