Wish (rewrite)

This new version of wish will alter some of the subpar or down right awful songs like “this wish”, “this is the thanks I get?!” Or “I’m a star”, The seven friends will be given a little more character, Amaya will be a villain alongside Magnifico, Sabino will have a better presence in the story instead of being a McGuffin, Asha will have a different arc involving the wishes, Magnifico will have a better reason to be the villain, the starboy will now be a main character, the blue fairy from Pinocchio will also be a character and Asha and starboy will have a romance plot line.
