Time to move

Chapter 8

“You can’t be serious. You are really freaking me out.” She backed away.

“You’re not listening to ME. I’M SERIOUS!’ he sighed, and rubbed through his hair in frustration. “Didn’t all of this shit started when we said what wish we would aked if we were upset. I said a clone and you guys agreed. I think that wish really came true.”

“NO! It’s not possible.” She shook her head.

“Well we don’t know yet. Remember Dave said that the wishmaster could disguise himself as anybody. Maybe the wishmaster was that girl who asked us that question in the audience…on the show.” They both froze.

Mandy tried watching t.v. to get her mind off of what she just witnessed. Her phone went off the hook once again. She gazed at it a couple of times before answering it. “Hello?”

“Hello. May I speak with Mandy?”

“Uh…she’s not here.” She stammered.

“Well could you tell her that Justin Timberlake called for her?”

“This is Justin Timberlake?” she asked excitedly. She always dreamed of having him call her.

“Yeah. So just…”

“Wait. This is her.”

“But I thought…”

“I said that because some girl called stalking me, and I thought you were her.”

“Oh really?”

“Yeah, and you wouldn’t believe it, but I saw somebody who looked just like me standing outside my window.

“Well that’s the reason why I called. I think somebody’s making clones out of us, but it’s impossible.”

“I know.”

“I think it’s something to do with that wish we made on the show.”

“Huh?”

“I’m serious. I mean…after we answered the girl’s question everything started twirling around. It’s weird. A duplicate of Britney showed up at my house, but Britney was at the hospital at the time.

“Oh yeah, about that incident between her and Britney. I saw it on the news today. I can’t believe you said that to her.”

“And that’s another thing. I didn’t say that. If you looked on the clock, on the t.v. It said two o’clock. And didn’t we, not you, but me, Britney and Christina left MTV Luv lives around eleven—thirty. You went home because you had to take care of some business, and we went straight there.

“Wait. Slow down. Could you repeat the time thing?”

“On the news it showed two o’clock on the clock in the TRL building but we were there at twelve o’clock.” He said aggregately. “I even have the tape to prove to you.”

“I believe you. ‘Cause when I saw somebody looking just like me…I knew something was up.

“I know. Me, Britney and I’ll see about Christina, but we all were going to go the library and figure out a way to put a stop to this. Are you coming?” she thought for a second.”

“Yeah. Okay.”

“So meet us at Bridgewood library in about ten minutes. Bye.” He hung up. Mandy hung up after him. She got up and went to get ready.

The phone ringed and Christina picked it up. “Hello.”

“Christy. Please don’t hang up on me. It’s im…” she hung up on him and rolled her eyes. Five seconds later the phone rung again. She let it ring for the answering machine to pick up.

Hello…Christy. Something’s weird going on. I found out the truth. There really is a wishmaster. Remember we answered that question on the show, well did you ever notice all of this crap started happening afterwards. Well Britney, and Mandy Moore are going to put a stop to this tonight. If you wanna help, meet us at Bridgewood library in ten minutes. This could be a life or death situation. Alright. Bye. He hung up. Christina immediately stood up and left out the house, on her way to the library.

Thirteen minutes later

Christina hopped out of the car, and ran to the awaiting Britney, Justin, and Mandy. “Are you guys ready to do this?” Justin asked, looking serious as can be. He heard a series of yes and nos. “Who just said no?” Justin asked looking around.

“I did.” The same lady who they saw on the show said, walking from behind a bush.
