Karen and Sandy were in the kitchen just having a cup of tea when they saw Sheana appear. “Morning Sheana dear. How were Sara and Prue doing this morning?” Karen asked as she got up from the table and gave Sheana a hug.

     “Prue’s doing much better, but I think Sara’s hiding her worry over not being able to walk still.” Sheana explained her concerns. “I tried using my magic to heal her legs, but it had no affect on her. We all think the original spell I cast as a genie is preventing any of my spells now from working.” Sheana added with a frown.

     “Does that mean the first spell will fix the damage Spike did to her then at some point?” Sandy asked, hoping she understood what Sheana was getting at with the genie wish Sara had made to make her the female slayer she was now, would eventually restore her legs to working order.

     “That is what we are all hoping for, but even that will take some time to correct all the damage Spike did when he broke her back.” Sheana said, not having any idea as to how long it could be before Sara got use of her legs back.

    The doorbell chiming stopped any further talk about Sara’s ability to walk again one day. Karen went to answer the door and smiled when she saw Jo and Mike stood at the front door.

     “Good morning Jo, Mike, are you sure you want to pretend to be Sara for the day Jo?” Karen asked as she let the two boys into the house before leading them into the kitchen.

     “I may not be able to slay vampires, do magic or even reprogram a computer, but I can do this to help keep my girlfriend off the MIB radar Karen.” Jo said with some pride in what he was about to do.

     “You do more than you give yourself credit for Jo, but I’m glad you’re willing to do this for my daughter.” Karen said as she hugged him and kissed him on the cheek making him blush a deep shade of red.

    Sandy was soon handing Jo the ring over that she’d worn the day before. Sheana had charmed the ring to change the person wearing it into a school uniform dressed version of Sara to make it quicker and easier to achieve the right look in the shortest time possible. Sheana had also added the one hour delay to the person changing back once the ring was removed; this would cover the ring being taken off in the wrong place and the wrong time and leaving the person exposed as a fake Sara.

    Jo took the ring from Sandy and then took a couple of calming breaths before he slipped the ring on and then watched as he started to transform into a copy of his girlfriend. There was very little pain, but it felt just as weird as when he became Josie. Like his Josie form, Jo could get pregnant and even suffer a period if Sheana wanted to be that mean, so Jo knew all the warnings already.

    The biggest worry Jo had about pretending to be Sara, was the fact he would have to act like Sara. Jo was lucky as Josie because no one expecting Josie to be anyone but Josie. Jo as Sara would have to interact with Sheana in a sisterly way, just like Sara would do day in and day out.

     “Did it work?” Jo asked when he felt all the changes slow down and finally stop. He knew it must have because it sounded like Sara asking the question, not him. He tried to look down at his feet, but found his view now blocked by a set of breasts forcing out the white blouse and yellow and blue tie that was all part of the school uniform. Jo could also feel the bra and panties under the uniform, and the skirt brushing against his, or more to the point Sara’s legs.

     “Hi sis.” Sheana said in answer to Jo/Sara’s question.

     “You may want to stand with your legs together, and straighten your back. Girl’s don’t slouch like that.” Mike pointed out as he looked at Jo/Sara stood like Jo would normally stand.

     “I’m having second thoughts about doing this now.” Jo/Sara said looking worried about making a big mistake.

     “You’ll do just fine baby. I’ll be with you every step of the way guiding you.” Sara’s voice said in his head.

     “Sara? Is that really you, or am I losing my mind?” Jo thought back to her.

     “No it’s really me Jo, so just relax and let me help you get the hang of being me to the rest of the world.” Sara said as she made it feel like she was slipping into Jo’s body with him.

    Jo relaxed and felt a warm feeling like Sara was hugging him all over. He was soon doing everything just like he remembered Sara doing it, but he was still in control, just with Sara guiding his movements to look more feminine.

     “Wow Jo. You soon got the hang of moving like Sara.” Mike said as he watched Jo/Sara moving just like he remembered the real Sara doing.

     “Sara’s helping me get the hang of this new body.” Jo/Sara said as she tapped the side of her head to indicate Sara was in her mind helping her.

     “Morning Mike.” Sara’s voice said in Mike’s head.

     “Morning Sara. How are you feeling today?” Mike thought back with a smile.

     “Glad to have some of my powers back, but I’m still missing not being able to walk.” Sara said with a pout to her voice. “I’m looking forward to being back at school, even if I’ve got to do it through my boyfriend, who is going to be pretending to be me for the day.” Sara added with a giggle.

     “I forgot just how boring life use to be before you and Sheana showed up.” Mike giggled, or more to the point Michelle did, as it was always Michelle’s voice doing the talking in their mind chats.

     “Thank you honey, I think.” Sara thought back just before she started to giggle, setting Mike/Michelle off giggling as well.

     “Good morning sweetheart.” Karen interrupted as she pulled Jo/Sara into a hug, hoping that her Sara would feel it.

     “Morning mummy.” Sara thought back as she nudged Jo/Sara into hugging her mother back.

     “How are you feeling today sweetie?” Karen asked in their mind chat, sounding happy to be talking to her sick daughter for a little bit before they all had to head off to school and work. “Sandy and I will be over tonight to spend some time with you.” Karen added before Sara had time to answer her question.

     “I’m doing just fine mummy, well apart from the whole legs not working thing, but I’m going to walk again mum, trust me on that one.” Sara said with determination in her voice. “And I know you and Sandy would be here all the time if you could, but you’re both very busy people with jobs, and I still have Jenna and Prue keeping an eye on me.” Sara added with a giggle.

     “Give Jenna and Prue a hug from me will you honey? I’ve really missed not having Jenna here to fuss over this morning.” Karen sighed.

     “I miss you to’s mummy.” Jenna’s giggly little voice suddenly said. “Don’t tells Prue I do this, she tells me off if she does.” Jenna added in a whisper, not that Prue could hear her if she shouted it.

     “It will be our little secret then honey.” Karen whispered back.

    Due to time getting on and Sheana not wanting to be late getting to school, she cheated a little and used magic to change from her normal clothes to her school uniform.

     “I hope you magically washed behind your ears while you were getting ready for school?” Karen joked as she watched Sheana’s clothes turn into her school uniform.

     “I washed before I left Hypatia’s home, mother.” Sheana said, not getting the little joke Karen was playing on her.

     “I know you did sweetie. I was just teasing you.” Karen pouted. “We really do need to work on your sense of humour.” Karen added with a sigh as she pulled Sheana into a hug.

     “I wonder if I will ever understand the way you all joke around.” Sheana said as she hugged her mother back.

     “You don’t do to bad at the minute, so don’t go putting yourself down.” Karen pointed out.

     “I have no plan to take my own life over it mother.” Sheana said looking shocked as she broke the hug with Karen.

     “I didn’t mean it in that way silly. I meant don’t talk badly of yourself.” Karen said as she pulled Sheana back into the hug. “Now get off to school, and no giving my other daughter a bad name.” Karen said as she looked at Jo/Sara stood with Mike.

     “I won’t mummy.” Jo/Sara said with a giggle.

     “Okay then, off you go.” Karen said as she walked them to the front door to see them off. “I’ll call the school and pretend to be your mother Jo, and say you’re not feeling well and won’t be in today.” Karen added, not feeling one hundred percent happy about lying, but she also didn’t want to see the men in black come and drag her daughter away, or get hurt trying to take her away. Karen knew that Prue and Sheana wouldn’t stand by and let that happen, neither would Hypatia for that matter.

     “But I thought you were my mother? Are you telling me I was adopted?” Jo/Sara asked looking shocked for a couple of seconds, just before she started giggling.

     “Go to school. You know what I mean.” Karen giggled as she pushed the three children out the door and then waved to them as they walked up the road.

     “Thanks for doing that Jo.” Sara’s voice said in Jo/Sara’s mind.

     “Doing what?” Jo/Sara asked sounding puzzled.

     “Making my mum laugh just now. I can see that she’s worried about me, so it was nice to see her giggling and looking happy for once.” Sara explained.

     “I tend to joke about things when I’m nervous.” Jo/Sara thought back with a smile. He was happy to be able to talk with Sara, even if they couldn’t walk to school together like they normally would. Jo knew it was going to be a weird day being stuck in a lookalike body of his girlfriend, as he pretended to be her.

     “You must be nervous quite a bit then Jo?” Sara asked with a giggle. Sara thought Jo did nothing but joke around.

     “Ha ha, very funny. And can you call me Sara for the rest of the day? I don’t want to slip up and embarrass you at school today.” Jo/Sara thought to Sara.

     “That’s a good idea, even if it is going to be weird talking to myself.” Sara said.

     “You think this is weird? Try it from my angle.” Jo/Sara grumbled. “I’m in a female body that’s an exact copy of my girlfriends, and I’m pretending to be her for the day, and going to school.”

     “Try being stuck in a wheelchair not being able to feel anything below the waist!” Sara snapped back before going quiet.

     “Sara? Sara! Please don’t be gone. I’m sorry; I didn’t mean it like that.” Jo/Sara started pleading with the void in his head where Sara had just been talking to him. He was worried that Sara had left him to fend for him or herself for the day now. “If it was possible for me to trade places with you in that wheelchair, I’d do it in a heartbeat.” Jo/Sara shouted out in his/her own mind.

     “I could never ask you to do that for me.” Sara’s voice said out of the darkness.

     “That’s kind of the point silly. I’d just do it because I love you.” Jo/Sara giggled. “You will walk again Sara, I will promise you that.” Jo/Sara added in a firm voice.

     “I’s glad you’re not’s together so you’s can start kissing.” Jenna’s voice suddenly popped in. “Dat would be icky.” She added with a strange sound that sounded like she’d just tasted something she didn’t like.

     “Well stop nosing in on private chats then young lady.” Sara gasped. “I’ll tell Prue what you’ve been up to.” Sara warned.

     “You not get Jenna in trouble with her big sister?” Jenna asked with a pout.

     “She won’t, but I will.” Hypatia’s voice said all of a sudden. “Now come with me young lady, and let Sara speak with Jo in private.” Hypatia added.

     “Otay. Sorry Sara, sorry Josie.” Jenna said sounding sad that she was being forced to leave.

     “Don’t worry about it Jen bear.” Jo/Sara said feeling sorry for the little girl now. “I’ll come over and play some board games with you after school!” He/she added just before Jenna left the mind chat.

     “You really mean dat Josie?” Jenna asked sounding all excited again now, and still using the female version of Jo’s name.

     “Could I ever lie to you Jen bear?” Jo/Sara asked with a hurt tone to his/her voice.

     “Not if I not want you to.” Jenna giggled.

     “Jenna!” Hypatia’s voice boomed.

     “Sorry, I not mean it Tia.” Jenna said just before she was gone from the mind link.

     “I’m sorry about that you two.” Hypatia said in her normal sweet sounding voice again. “Hello Josie dear. Good luck at school today, not that you need it with Sara keeping an eye on you.” Hypatia added with a little giggle to her voice.

     “Hi Hypatia! Thanks, but I still have to face them all in person.” Jo/Sara pointed out. “Please don’t be too hard on Jenna. She doesn’t mean any harm when she pops into other people’s chats.” Jo/Sara added trying to keep Jenna out of too much trouble.

     “Don’t worry Josie dear, I’ve already got her chasing butterflies around in a meadow.” Hypatia giggled just before she fazed from the mind chat.

     “In a meadow chasing butterflies?” Jo/Sara asked.

     “Yes, Hypatia can do some pretty amazing things with her telepathy.” Sara pointed out. “I wish I could do things with my telepathy like she can.” Sara added with a sigh.

     “I’m sure you will in time Sara. You’ve only been doing it for five minutes compared to Hypatia. I’m sure she’ll help you train your mind just like she is doing your body.” Jo/Sara said.

     “That would be cool if she would. You, me, Sheana and Michelle could do some fun stuff without needing to leave the house then.” Sara said sounding excited about it.

     “Speaking of Sheana and Michelle, do you feel like adding them to this little chat, so we can work out a plan for my first day as you at school?” Jo/Sara asked.

     “That sounds like a great idea. It will be like a normal day with us all walking to school. Well three of you walking to school.” Sara added with a sigh, but she was soon focusing on finding Sheana and Mike/Michelle.

    Sara had pulled Sheana and Mike into the chat before Jo had time to say anything more to Sara about her being able to walk again one day soon, so he had to settle for welcoming the other two into the little chat room they had set up.

     “I thought Jo was being quiet.” Michelle’s voice said when she realised that Sara had linked them all up so they could talk without anyone else knowing about it.

     “Can you just stick to calling me Sara for the rest of the day? I don’t want to slip up and answer to the wrong name at school.” Jo/Sara said with worry in his/her voice. Jo was focusing that hard on trying to be Sara that he was beginning to sound like her in the mind chat as well.

     “Is it okay if we call you Josie in here though? It’s going to get confusing with two Sara’s in here at the same time.” Michelle pointed out the flaw in Josie’s plan.

     “I see your point my good lady.” Jo/Sara said in a posh voice. “Okay, Josie it is in here then.” He/she added with a giggle.

     “Will I be seeing either of you tonight? I was just wondering with Sandy working today.” Sara asked as she looked out at the world through the other three’s eyes. “My mum’s going to be coming over, but I’m not sure if she’ll be going home first or not.” Sara added.

     “Don’t worry sis, I’m going to suit up when we get to Michelle’s house after school, and then I’ll blink us all over to see you.” Sheana said cheerfully.

     “That’s great news.” Sara thought happily. “I was hoping to work on the disguise for Jo and Michelle to use at the cafe.” Sara added.

     “How do we explain you not being there if you still can’t walk by the time the cafe’s ready to open?” Michelle asked.

     “We could take it in turns pretending to be Sara until she’s back on her feet.” Jo/Sara suggested.

     “That’s going to be a lot of work for us. Playing a couple of grownups. Michelle and Josie and then covering for Sara as well.” Michelle said sounding worried.

     “I could always just start working at the cafe later, once I’m walking again.” Sara pointed out, not sounding very happy about being the weak link in the chain.

    Sheana, Jo and Michelle suddenly found themselves in a busy street with Sara in a wheelchair trying to keep up with them as they went in and out of different shops trying on clothes while she was left watching them have fun. The vision soon faded and they were all back in the void again.

     “What was that?” Jo/Sara asked with a little panic in his/her voice. “Did any of you see it as well?” Jo/Sara asked.

     “Yes I saw it as well.” Michelle chipped in.

     “So did I.” Sheana added. “Sara? Are you okay?” Sheana asked with worry in her voice.

     “Yes I’m fine.” Sara snapped. “I’m sorry; you weren’t supposed to see any of that.” Sara added.

     “Are you worried that we might start and leave you behind if you can’t get out that chair Sara?” Jo/Sara asked.

     “Part of me fears what will happen if I don’t ever walk again, yes.” Sara said close to tears.

     “None of us would ever do anything like what you just saw Sara. We would find other ways to go out and have fun with you if you never walk again, but we would never think of you as being a burden to us.” Michelle said with promise in her voice.

     “I could never do that to you sister.” Sheana said as she sent Sara a mental image of the two of them hugging.

     “Thanks you guys.” Sara thought back to them feeling much better. “These dark thoughts just creep up on me every now and then, I just never realised I could turn them into visions you could all see.” Sara added with worry in her voice.

     “You did say that Hypatia could do some pretty impressive things with her telepathy, so it stands to reason you can as well.” Jo/Sara pointed out what Sara had said earlier. “Looks like you may need to keep your thoughts in check while holding this type of chat session.” Jo/Sara added with a smile.

     “Wonderful, more things to train for.” Sara groaned.

     “The joys of being the all powerful Slayer.” Michelle said with a giggle.

    Seeing that she wasn’t going to get any sympathy from these three, Sara decided to just relax and enjoy the trip to school. The three of them were soon walking through the gates and Sara focused on helping Jo/Sara interact with the other students. Jo/Sara had got barely ten feet through the gates before a male student called Roy stepped right in front of her path. Jo/Sara tried to step around him, but he just blocked her path every time she stepped to the side.

     “What’s your problem Roy?” Jo/Sara asked before thinking that Roy wouldn’t be a student Sara would now.

     “Wow you know who I am?” Roy asked with a grin. Roy was an older student that was also one of the best athletes in the school, he was on the soccer team, and also the rugby team.

     “Oh crap!” Jo/Sara thought to herself, and Sara it turned out.

     “You need to be more careful Sara!” Sara said to Jo/Sara thinking it was weird telling herself off for doing something stupid. “Tell him that you remember Jo telling you about a time he picked on you. Jo you that is.” Sara added quickly.

     “Yes I know who you are Roy, but only because Jo pointed you out to me as being the student that used to pick on him all the time.” Jo/Sara said in her best ‘I’m pissed off Sara voice’.

     “I don’t sound like that! Do I?” Sara asked.

     “Can we talk about this later?” Jo/Sara asked sounding a little flustered. “I’m kind of in the middle of something here.” She pointed out.

     “Oh right, Sorry about that.” Sara giggled as she shut up and let Jo/Sara deal with Roy.

     “That was just a couple of friends playing around.” Roy said trying to brush off whatever Jo might have told her, not realising that the girl he was talking to knew only to well that Roy enjoyed picking on the younger kids.

     “So you were just having some fun with a friend when you stole his clothes while he tried out for the soccer team, and then again when you and a couple of your other friends almost killing him during his try out for the rugby team?” Jo/Sara asked with anger spilling out in her voice.

     “Wow, he sure told you a lot about me didn’t he?” Roy said looking surprised at just how much Sara knew about the things he’d done to Jo in the past.

     “Too much information.” Sara sang happily in Jo/Sara’s head.

     “I asked him who the biggest jerk in school was, and you’re name came up.” Jo/Sara smiled sweetly as she thought about the fact she could call him a jerk while looking like this and he wouldn’t do a thing about it. “So can you get out my way?” Jo/Sara asked sounding annoyed.

     “I will when I’ve asked you out on a date with me.” Roy said with a grin, like he’d not just been informed of what a jerk Sara thought he was.

     “Have you been hit in the head one too many times with the ball Roy?” Jo/Sara asked with her mouth hanging open in amazement at just how thick this guy was. “I already have a boyfriend, and I think you’re a jerk! So can you work out what the answer would be if you did ask?” Jo/Sara said with her arms folded across her chest.

     “You’ll think about it?” Roy asked, thinking that it was a real question Jo/Sara just asked him.

     “No, Roy!” Jo/Sara snapped at him.

     “You will go on a date with me?” Roy asked with a cocky grin on his face as he looked at the two boys stood with him, who also looked about as smart in the brain size as he did.

     “No!” Jo/Sara said finding it hard to believe that this boy could even walk, never mind being able to run and think about kicking a ball as well. “No, means I would never go on a date with you. Ever!” Jo/Sara said as she drew out the word ‘ever’.

    Sheana and Mike had been stood just behind Jo/Sara as she tried to explain to Roy that she wasn’t interested in going out with him. Sheana was a little shocked to hear Sara’s voice in her head.

     “Sis? I need you to do me a favour.” Sara said.

     “What’s that sis?” Sheana thought back.

     “I need you to work your magic on Roy’s friend, the one with the drinks carton.” Sara pointed out as she showed Sheana the image of the friend stood to Roy’s left. He was stood trying to get a straw into the little hole, but looked to be having some trouble getting it to go in.

     “What is it you want me to do?” Sheana asked. Sara was soon showing Sheana just what she had in mind for Roy, courtesy of his friend with the drink.

    Roy was just about to say some other brain-dead thing when Jo/Sara had to jump back so she didn’t get sprayed with the juice now shooting out of the drink carton Roy’s friend was holding as it went all over Roy.

     “What the hell man!” Roy said as he looked at his friend stood with the now empty carton, as he wiped the juice off is face and out his hair.

     “Sorry man, I don’t know what happened. One minute the stupid straw wouldn’t go in, and then bam! This happened.” His friend pointed out as he looked at Roy wearing his drink.

     “I think you should tell your friend to stick with the Sippy. He doesn’t look ready for cartons and straws just yet.” Jo/Sara giggled as she stepped around a soggy looking Roy and kept walking towards the main school building.

     “What is a Sippy?” Sheana asked Mike as they walked towards the school buildings.

     “It’s a special sort of cup designed for toddlers to use so they don’t spill their drinks.” Mike explained.

     “Oh, so it was an insult that Sara just paid him then?” Sheana giggled.

     “Yes it was, not that they would see it that way.” Jo/Sara frowned with annoyance. “I never realised just how thick Roy was before today.” Jo/Sara added.

     “He’d never really said much to you before today.” Mike pointed out.

     “I can’t believe he tried hitting on my... Me.” Jo/Sara managed to correct herself before letting it slip that she was really Jo pretending to be Sara, not that anyone would work it out, but the men in black might hear it and put two and two together.

     “Calm down baby.” Sara’s voice said calmly in Jo’s head. “Once I’m back on my feet, we’ll show them all just how much we still mean to each other.” Sara added as she showed Jo an image of the two of them kissing.

    Jo/Sara was that lost in the image of Sara kissing his male form that she walked straight into another group of boys. “Sorry.” Jo/Sara said as she snapped out of it and looked the boy she’d just bumped into right in the eyes.

     “Don’t worry about it, Sara, right?” The boy asked with a smile. “Sorry to hear about you and Jo breaking up.” The boy added, but he didn’t look very sorry at all.

     “Thanks, but we haven’t broken up. I’m just a little pis... upset with him right now?” Jo/Sara said correcting herself before she swore as she gave the boy a look that said ‘sorry, but I don’t know your name.’ Truth be told Jo did know the boy’s name, but he wasn’t going to give him an opening like he did Roy minutes earlier.

     “Stuart, Stuart white.” The boy smiled as he held out his hand to shake Sara’s. “If you’re looking for some company while you and Jo try to work things out, I’d be glad to fill the role.” Stuart said with a smug look on his face.

     “Oh my god! Do they put something in the water to make the boys like this?” Sara thought to Jo.

     “You’d think so wouldn’t you?” Jo/Sara thought back to Sara with a growl. “Jo and I will be back together just as soon as he comes back to school.” Jo/Sara told Stuart in a firm tone of voice.

     “Where is Jo anyway? Off licking his wounds somewhere?” Stuart asked with a smirk.

“No!” Jo/Sara snapped before taking a breath to calm back down again. “He’s caught that stomach bug that

    ’s going about.” Jo/Sara said. There was always some sort of a bug going about, so she thought it was a good lie.

     “I’m sorry to hear that Sara.” Stuart said with the same smug look on his face that said he wasn’t sorry at all. “My offer still stands, if you ever need to talk.” He added, as he tried to look like he cared.

     “Jo’s only got a stomach bug. You talk like he’s on his death bed.” Jo/Sara said looking a little weirded out now.

     “Well you never know what these stomach bugs can turn into.” Stuart said with a sigh.

     “I’ve got to get to class now.” Jo/Sara said with a nervous smile just before she grabbed Sheana by the arm and dragged her away with her, taking Mike along with them due to him holding hands with Sheana still.

     “Well it’s nice to know I wouldn’t be short of a date if we ever did break up for real.” Sara giggled as she watched Jo/Sara weave her way through the other students at the school trying to avoid making eye contact or even bothering to answer any of the hi’s she was getting.

     “Have you thought about breaking up with me?” Jo thought to Sara with panic in his voice.

     “No silly.” Sara thought back with a giggle. “You should be proud of just how jealous you’re making all the other boys.” Sara pointed out.

     “I hadn’t thought of it that way.” Jo thought, feeling a little smug with him, or herself. Forgetting about the mind link he was in with Sara and the others, Jo was soon daydreaming about rescuing Sara from a horde of other men, and then holding her in his arms as she thanking him for saving her. Jo soon snapped out of it when he heard Sheana start giggling out loud for no reason or to all the other students it looking that way.

     “Sorry.” Sheana sniggered as she had to slap her hand over her mouth as she looked at Jo/Sara blushing as she realised what she’d just done by thinking what she did, or he did, as it was Jo that did all the hero stuff in the dream, not this version of Jo that looked like Sara.

    It was soon time for Mike to part company with Sheana and Jo/Sara so he could get to his homeroom, so he wished the girls luck, but looked more at Jo/Sara as he said it. Sheana gave him a kiss on the lips before she let him run off up the hallway. Jo/Sara let out a sigh wishing she was Jo still and could be running off up the hallway with his friend.

    The day went just like Jo/Sara thought it would, every boy she bumped into tried to ask her out on a date. It got to the point where Jo/Sara placed her headphones from her mp3 player in her ears just to stop them from trying, and the ones that did try just got a ‘I can’t hear you’ and a smile as she pointed at her ears, but not bothering to take them out and find out what the person wanted to talk to her about.

    Sara helped with some of the lessons Jo/Sara would have trouble with, and Jo was glad to have Sara there with her. Jo/Sara did have one lesson without Sara being with her though. Sara had fallen asleep and lost the link for a short time. This panicked Jo/Sara a little, but Sara came back and apologised for the loss in signal.

    Hypatia was out in the garden with Jenna and Prue when they saw Sara wheel herself back out into the garden after she’d finished helping Jo pretend to be her for the day. Jo was on his way back to Mike’s house so they could then change and let Sheana blink them all over to the mansion.

     “How did young Josie do at pretending to be you then Sara?” Hypatia asked with a smile.

     “He did okay, but thanks to my sister slapping him the day before, he was getting hit on a lot.” Sara giggled as she thought about some of the cheesy lines some of them tried. Sara did look a little worried though when she thought about a couple of the girls that looked to be interested as well though. It was one thing to fancy Jo when he was Josie, but she didn’t have feelings for any of the girls at school.

    Sara started grinning a little later when she saw Sheana still in her black witch armour and Michelle and Jo walk out into the garden. She wheeled herself half way across the lawn to meet Jo so they could hug and say a real hello to each other.

     “It’s nice to see you back in your own body again Jo.” Sara sighed once they stopped greeting each other. “You do know that you’re the only one I want, right?” Sara asked as she looked into Jo’s eyes checking for any doubts he might have that she didn’t loved only him.

     “If I did have any doubts, that kiss just showed me otherwise.” Jo grinned as he started pushing Sara back over to where the others were sat.

    Sheana changed back to her normal look and then let Michelle help her take a seat at the table, while they watched a fully healed Prue get up and pour them all a glass of juice out.

     “Are you feeling better now Prue?” Sheana asked as she took a glass from her.

     “As good as new.” Prue smiled as she moved her arm around to show them all she had full use of it again.

     “Don’t forget the protection charm next time partner.” Sara said with a grin.

     “Trust me, I won’t do that again.” Prue blushed, still a little embarrassed at being so stupid in the first place.

     “I not let her forgets again.” Jenna said sounding all bossy as she pulled Prue back down into the seat so she could jump up on her knee and carry on having a cuddle.

    Sandy, Samantha and Karen all arrived home and then helped Prue and Hypatia with Dinner before they all sat down to eat. Sheana, Michelle and Jo all sorted out washing the dishes with some help from Jenna. Then Jo, Sara, Sheana and Michelle all sat and played board games with Jenna for the rest of the night, just like Jo had promised earlier in the day.

    Sara looked a little sad when it came time for Jo and the others to leave, but they all gave her and Jo ten minutes to say a proper goodbye. Sara then sat at the top of the steps that led to the front door and waved as she watched her family drive away. Prue had gone home with Karen and Sandy, so she could protect them in case any trouble came looking for the slayer back at home. Sheana had also gone back with the others, but only to spend a little more time with Michelle before she blinked back to spend the night with Sara and Jenna, who was also stopping at the mansion with Sara to keep an eye on her, so Jenna said when she said she was stopping with Sara.

    Sheana blinked back to the mansion and could hear Jenna giggling, so she followed the sound and found them all in the kitchen just about to sit down with a hot chocolate. There was one sat in front of an empty seat next to Jenna, so Sheana smiled as she took the seat and started sharing marshmallows with Jenna as they drank the wonderful sweet drink.

    Once they had all finished their drinks, Hypatia and Samantha walked the three girls up to their room and then made sure they brushed their teeth before tucking them all in. Sara felt bad about having to let Hypatia lift her out the wheelchair and into the bed, but she just looked down at her useless legs hoping that they would soon be working again.

     “Thanks for all the help Hypatia.” Sara smiled up at her as Hypatia pulled the covers up and tucked her in with Jenna in the middle and Sheana on the other side of the large bed.

     “You’re most welcome my little slayer.” Hypatia said as she kissed Sara on the forehead, just before she did the same with Jenna and then Sheana. “Now go to sleep, you have much to do again tomorrow.” Hypatia added as she put her arm around Samantha and led her from the room as she whispered something that Made Samantha giggle in her ear.

    Sara felt really tired, but she had forced herself to stay linked with Jo all day, so she was soon fast asleep and having a strange dream. She was dreaming that she was in a dark cave, but it felt hot in there, soon she came to a glowing light at the end of the tunnel she’d found herself in, there she found a lava filled cavern. The dream felt so real that Sara could feel the heat coming from the lava. Not liking the dream, Sara turned to get away from it, but her footing gave way and she found herself slipping down into it. Sara let out a scream as she felt the lava start to burn her legs.

    Sheana and Jenna woke to Sara Screaming that her legs were on fire, but the thing that shocked them more was the fact Sara was now stood at the side of the bed trying to stamp out the fire that wasn’t there.

     “Sis! Your legs, they're working!” Sheana shouted as she watched Sara dancing around as she was still trying to put the fire out by the looks of it.

    Sara thought she heard Sheana’s voice calling her, so she focused on it and soon realised that she was safe in the bedroom back at Hypatia’s so she opened her eyes and saw she was stood about ten feet away from the bed. She was soon looking down and wiggling her toes and feeling the cold of the wooden floor under them.

     “I can move my toes, and I can feel the cold floor as well.” Sara giggled as she started jumping up and down as she did spins in the air. “I can feel my legs again!” Sara screamed just as the bedroom door opened and Hypatia came into the room with Samantha dressed as an angel just behind her.

    Hypatia and Samantha looked at Sara opened mouth, while Sara, Sheana and Jenna all looked at Samantha with puzzled looks, as they tried to work out why Samantha would be dressed as an angel?
