Story Summary

Justin Jones lived with his ill-tempered uncle until the day he came upon Elives Magic Shop, a small shop on a street that he didn't recognize. Oddly, Mr. Elives seemed to know Justin and sold him a magic trick call "the metamorphosis" which is exactly what happened. Within a week Justin had grown wings and a new destiny along with them.
