Before I could start, I heard a buzz from my phone. I pick it up and see a new text from Alyson.

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkt64l9d7i
You know, I’m starting to get a bit jealous. All you need is a pretty face and long legs to make even girls like Alyson open up for you. I imagine my original face and compared it to the transformation.

…Is that really the only reason why my sister started to act like a bitch to me and everyone like me. Is she really that shallow?

293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMFiuCqinc
Enough, I need to re-focus. Alyson is the enemy and I’m going to take her place on the top. Let’s see how she likes it, being on the bottom and disregarded by everyone.
293Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9umXuhaAJ

I swap mind reading for Paralysis. Finally got it down to 15 minutes this time. Since Mat’s item is a water gun the usage is 3 shots instead of a one-time use.
