“What the hell just happened?” Suki’s voice trembled as she realized she was now inside the body of the museum’s curator, Vic.
“When the orb was discovered, there was no record of it swapping people’s bodies. Of course, there was no record of the orb glowing like that either,” Vic tried his best to sound authoritative, despite being in Suki’s small body and speaking with her high pithced voice. It wasn’t just he and Suki that had swapped bodies. All the graduate students he had hired to catalog the museum’s collection in the basement did as well.
“It’s still glowing,” Kelly suggested while in Terrance’s body, “Maybe if we just wait, it will swap us again, and we’ll swap back to normal.”
And that’s just what they did. And the orb continued to swap their bodies around every thirty minutes or so. But it never seemed to swap any body back to their original body.
After a few swaps, Suki realized she swapping quite frequently into Vic’s body. She began to worry that she may get stuck in an older male body, so when she found herself in Kelly’s body, she decided it was close enough and ran upstairs and out of the museum. The other’s looked at each other nervously, realizing they too might all have to settle for a body that wasn’t their own.
