As Gale woke up from that monstrous, horrifying moment she found herself looking upward in a pink room filled with pink stuffed animals. "What is going on with my life?" Gale said as she hopped up. But something was different she didn't know what but she thought it was one of those girl hunches or gir-unches as she calls them. She hopped out the door but found she wasn't very small anymore and hopping was more difficult. "Maybe I became a plump orange?" Gale said as she discovered she was no longer an orange. She was a living human with limbs, a nose, fingers, everything! She discovered walking was easier than hopping in her new body but was quickly left wondering if being an orange was real or a dream. Then it suddenly came to her, there might be others in this house! She quickly walked to find anything leading upward or downward. As she went downstairs she smelled a wonderful smell, one gave her a feeling of happiness. She found a lady stirring a pot of noodles, and as Gale was about to say something she began to hear voices. She quickly turned around and around wondering where it came from. She turned to the lady and the lady was perfectly normal. No melting, dying, transforming, nothing. Just a normal old lady. But then she saw something move in the corner of her eye. It was corn. The corn quickly stopped moving as she turned her head towards it. Gale walked towards the corn slowly and picked it up. "Hey girl, like what you see?" She heard it say. She screamed and dropped the corn and the lady cooking turned around frustrated placing the corn back where it belonged. Gale went to pick it up again but was hit on the head with a wooden spoon and told to wait until dinner was ready. "Psssst. Psssst." The corn said as it was trying to gain Gale's attention. She turned and just looked at it in disbelief.
