Invisible Sister

"AAAH!" I hear my sister, Sarah, scream. She falls from the tree and into a mud pile. Not that it matters too much, since she can't be seen anyways. Long story short, I somehow managed to turn her invisible and now Farkle and I have to find a way to turn her visible again before midnight or else the invisibility will become permanent.

We were at the graveyard, trying to catch a moth. It was what started this whole thing. I turned the moth invisible (even though Farkle didn't believe me) but the invisibility had somehow spread to Sarah.

"Sarah, are you okay!?" I ask.

"No!" She shouts. She gets out of the mud pile and walks over to me. "Maya, I am not okay! I am very much not okay! I'm in a cemetery, at night, soaking wet, covered in swamp ooze, and now I'm gonna be invisible forever!"

"We still have time!" I exclaim.

"Just forget about it." Sarah scowls.

"We can't, we can't forget about it! Maybe we should just go home, turn all the lights on, and try to draw a moth in." I suggest, mind racing with thoughts.

"And then what? You can reverse the invisibility, for sure? Because as far as I can tell, you really have no idea what is actually happening to me." Sarah yells. "I'm done. I'm done with your science, and your judgement, and your sarcasm. I'm done with all of it."

"Come on, Sarah. This isn't you, you're supposed to be the positive one." I say, shocked at her words.

"Just leave me alone." Sarah says quietly. "If I'm gonna be invisible forever and have my life completely ruined, I want to face it alone. You, of all people, can relate to that."

I hear footsteps walking away from me. "Sarah, come on." I say. I don't get a response. "Sarah?" I say again. "SARAH COME ON, WE CAN'T GIVE UP, COME BACK!" I shout, running around the cemetery, trying to find her.

"Sarah, where are you!?" I shout. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry for everything! It's just not easy, being your sister." I sigh and sit down on one of the steps. "You've got this thing. This light, everyone is drawn to you. And it's hard sometimes, cause, the truth is I've always wanted to have that. And then, I didn't. It was much easier to blame you for feeling invisible. So I pushed you away and everything, everything away. I should've come for fro-yo." I say shakily, breath raspy, trying my hardest not to cry.

This was all my fault. My sister is gonna spend the rest of her life invisible and there wasn't anything I can do to stop it.

"You can come to fro-yo next time." I hear a voice say. I look up to find a floating glass jar with a moth inside it.

"Sarah, you're here." I say, relief washing through me.

"I'm here, sis." Sarah says.

After our reconciliation, we went to the school where Farkle was waiting for us. After Sarah scared the living crap out of the poor night security, the three of us went to the science lab.

Farkle and I proceeded to recreate my solution, turning the moth invisible. "Okay, we got it." I say.

"Good." Farkle says. "Let's analyze it so we can figure out how to make an antidote."

Farkle and I run over to the computer, looking at the results. "I don't understand!" I say. "This solution is complex!"

The computer prints the final product. Farkle takes it, scanning the pages. "This is heavy organic chemistry." He says.

"So now what?" Sarah asks.

"We have to find someone who can sort through this, someone who knows what all that means." Farkle says.
