Hey all, here's the next chapter! I hope you enjoy it.

Thanks always to libaka, you're the best! And I'm still ridiculously happy that you called me a ninja. :)

Chapter 32: Wishes

Puck yawned as Daphne's Disney movie pick of the week wound down, with Aladdin giving Genie his freedom and everything ending happily ever after. Again. Daphne had watched the movie nearly every night since she'd dug it out of the old lady's pile of books, movies, and a tv that past Sunday night. The younger girl was blissfully happy, and took to singing "A Whole New World" all day as she walked around the house. Puck was pretty sure that the marshmallow was only so obsessed with that song because she'd actually ridden a magic carpet. He thought the song was ridiculously mushy himself.

The fairy glanced over towards the stairs, where he knew Sabrina was hiding. She'd gotten sick of both the movie and the song two days in, and took to vanishing somewhere in the house whenever Daphne pulled out the movie or started singing that stupid song. Puck wasn't sure how Sabrina managed to time it perfectly, but Daphne hadn't been able to cajole Sabrina into watching with her for the past three days. He unfortunately hadn't been able to escape. The only good thing about this, he figured, was that he got to eat popcorn to his heart's content and the old lady (Granny, his mind corrected. He had to call her Granny now) thought that he was being so nice to little Daphne that she kept making his favorite foods. Of course, Sabrina somehow managed to vanish partway through dinner, and never seemed to eat anything, but Puck figured she was making do.

Daphne skipped up the stairs, humming under her breath. As soon as she was upstairs, a shadow detached itself from the front hallway, and Sabrina sat down on one of the comfy chairs Granny had scrounged up. Puck gaped. "Weren't you upstairs?"

Sabrina glanced at him wearily. "Granny caught me coming from the kitchen, and talked to me long enough that there was no way I'd be able to sneak upstairs without Daphne catching me. So I hid in the front closet."

The boy couldn't help it. Puck burst into laughter, imagining Sabrina hiding herself inside Canis' huge coat so that Daphne couldn't catch her. Sabrina smiled wryly, and shrugged.

"At least I found some good books to read, and Granny's earmuffs blocked out almost the entire movie," Sabrina commented. Puck let out another braying laugh, and shook his head at her.

"It isn't that bad of a movie."

"No, it isn't. It only gets bad after watching it multiple times in a row."

Puck shrugged, admitting to himself that the only way he got through the movie now was by staring intently at the screen and thinking up new pranks. Daphne never knew the difference.

Sabrina slid out of the chair and began picking through the mess to the tv. Puck watched as she pulled out the videotape, slid it into its case, and walked towards the door. As she reached for the doorknob, Daphne's voice echoed down the stairs. "Sabrina, don't you dare throw Aladdin away!"

Both Puck and Sabrina spun towards the stairs. Surprisingly, Daphne wasn't standing at the top, but they could see that the door to the girls' room was open. Sabrina sighed and put the movie back.

"I don't get it. She can't seem to find me in the house at all, but she knows the timing to tell me not to throw her stupid movie away."

Puck grinned. "Maybe she's using the same thing you use to disappear at exactly the right moment."

Sabrina shrugged, and the two sat quietly for a little while, listening to the sounds of Daphne heading to bed, and Mirror and Granny talking through Mirror's door.

The boy said suddenly, "If you had three wishes, what would they be?"

The girl turned her head toward him. "What?"

"Three wishes. What would they be?"

Sabrina seemed to consider his question carefully. Puck shifted after she didn't answer for a few moments, and glanced toward the kitchen, wondering if he could sneak in and steal food after everyone else went to bed. In doing so, he missed the mischievous smile that crossed Sabrina's face.

"Well," Sabrina drew the word out, thinking quickly. "For one thing, I would wish for a pony."

"A pony?" Puck gaped at her. Sabrina nodded, smiling widely.

"And my second wish would be for a nice, pretty saddle to ride the nice, pretty pony with." Sabrina glanced away from Puck's astonished face.

"Hmm. And third! Third would be for my biggest, bestest wish! No one else's wish could ever compare!" After getting up from her seat and sitting herself down on the sofa next to Puck, Sabrina clasped her hands together, batting her eyes. Puck leaned away from her, wondering when she'd been poisoned and some weirdo had switched places with her. The idea that Sabrina wanted a pony was just bizarre.

"My third wish would be-" Sabrina drummed her hands against her legs, causing Puck to jump, panic starting to hit him. "For a big big castle! With chocolate fountains everywhere that I can drink out of! I would have parties where everyone just dips goblets into the fountains and drinks pure, melted chocolate!"

Puck gaped at Sabrina, trying to calculate the possibility of him being able to warn Granny and the others before this fake murdered him in his bed. He didn't think Sabrina even liked chocolate!

Sabrina grinned widely at him and skipped towards the stairs. At the top, she leaned down and met Puck's eyes.

"And Puck?" The boy shrank down as he turned to look at her, until just his eyes and forehead poked out over the couch. "I'm just pulling your leg."

Sabrina skipped down the hall, snickering to herself as Puck's sputtering followed behind her. One point for her in the prank war between them!

Daphne wondered briefly why Sabrina was so pleased with herself, and then figured it was just her being weird again.

Two days later, Sabrina decided she hated Puck more than anything, when she turned on the shower and was covered in warm, melted chocolate. After wrapping her towel around herself and stomping down the stairs, she marched into the dining room to find Puck and the rest of the family eating breakfast.

Puck, who was congratulating himself on a prank well played after hearing Sabrina scream, spat out his milk when the girl walked into the dining room. He rapidly decided maybe he should've just made the faucet pour chocolate instead of the shower when he realized that Sabrina was just wearing a towel.

The girl stormed over to him and, grabbing his ear, pulled him out of his chair. Ignoring the rest of the family, who were all staring incredulously at them, except for Daphne, who promptly ran upstairs and started turning the knobs on the shower, trying to make it spew chocolate again, Sabrina dumped all the chocolate she'd been able to hold in the water cup left in the bathroom on his head.

After releasing Puck, who slumped into his chair, still looking gobsmacked, Sabrina yelled, "Next time you come up with a dumb prank, maybe you should get me the stupid pony!" She glared down at him. Puck gulped, and shifted his eyes towards the door.

Sabrina blinked when Puck didn't respond, then yelped when he ran past her up the stairs. As Puck fought with Daphne over who could get into the chocolate shower first ("It was my idea!" "But you had it as a prank, not a treat!"), Canis gently led her to the kitchen sink, where he patiently handed her a clean washcloth to start wiping off her face and hands. Granny, sighing gustily, got up and started mopping up the trail that Sabrina had left behind her when she came downstairs.

The old woman murmured to herself, "I'm too old for this," then shouted up the stairs that no one was getting a chocolate shower unless they wanted to clean it up later. Puck and Daphne decided that terms like that made the shower not really worth it, and went back to the breakfast table.

Granny's opinion was only more solidified when Puck spent the next two days following Sabrina around in pony form, with a little saddle on. He only stopped when Sabrina took him up on his offer, and he realized that the prank was more on him than on her.

Elvis had to be locked outside until all the chocolate was cleaned up, and he took to following Sabrina around, sniffing hopefully.

Sabrina herself took the whole situation as a neat little lesson about how to make Puck shut up, because every time he started teasing her, she would remind him of his speechlessness when being confronted by her in a towel.

Canis simply decided that the whole situation had been caused by prepubescent flirtations, and was extremely glad he wasn't that age anymore. Two adolescents in the house was enough.


I hope you enjoyed it! It was fun to write, especially since I probably had about 3 bars of chocolate afterwards...

Please R&R, and have a great day!
