New Years Eve

“I’ve got it!” The old woman says, “Your dresses perfectly for a New Years Eve party.”

With a flick of her wand a nearby calendar flipped to December.

“I’ve adjusted time for this one day to be a repeat of last New Years Eve. By the stroke of midnight the Magic I’ve put in places will begin to fade. So enjoy yourself!”

You try to say something but the Old woman cuts you off. “Oh, you need transportation to the party. Follow me.”

She drags you out of the store, your heels clicking on the hard floor. You are outside the mall standing in the cold, a skimpy dress is not meant for this type of weather. She magics you up a warm fur coat. And then begins looking up and down the parking lot.

You both come across a man wearing a ski mask trying to break into a junker of a car.

“You’ll do fine!” The old woman says pointing the wand at the car thief.

He tries to runaway but the wand’s magic hits him square in the back. His clothes begin to dissolve as his black sweatpants reform into a fashionable business suit. You think he is just going to be changed into a chauffeur. But then you see his form shrink until he is clearly a she. She stops and you see a cute blonde woman staring back at you in shock.

“What the fuck!” The woman exclaims.

“Oh no that won’t do at all,” the old woman taps the new woman on the head, a spark issuing from it. The new woman’s eyes rolling back in her head.

She shakes her head, “I’m sorry, madame,” the chauffeur says, “I don’t know what came over me.”

The old woman nods then turns to the junker, in a puff of smoke the junker becomes a black Porsche.

“Go my sweetie,” the Old Woman says as she shows you into the car. “And remember, the spell ends at midnight.”

You get into the car and your driver starts the car. You are still dumbfounded by what has happened. But you are stuck, at least until midnight.

Your driver pulls up to a fancy hotel and opens the door for you. Your long legs have no trouble walking out of the car and up to the hotel. A busboy greets you, “Madame, let me show you to the party,” he ushers you to an elevator and presses the button for a ballroom on the top level.

You stand in the elevator hoping that tonight will end soon. The doors open and your find yourself looking out to a dance floor and party. Everyone dressed to the 9’s.
