Bruce was healthy enough to walk around fairly quickly. He didn’t know quite was he was going to do; would anyone believe that a bug had turned him into a woman? There was something else still bothering him. The clothes he wore clearly weren’t from the village. The doctor explained that they were from a previous visitor who had been a woman until she found a plant that turned her into a man. Bruce thought about it. A bug that could turn men into a woman, and a plant that could turn women into men. There had to be a correlation! This could prompt a whole new wave of research!

Recharges

“Carl, I’ve got to tell you that you’ve been taking this whole body swapping thing quite well.”

“It’s okay, Shanice,” Carl smiled, “I think I deal with being you for a few hours until the medallion recharges or whatever the hell it needs to do.”

Carl fingered the Medallion of Zulu around Shanice’s neck. He was only pretending to want to get back to his own body. He needed a plan to get the medallion from Shanice and hide it or toss it or something. Then there would be no way to switch back.

...And just like that, Rodney was now in Sheila’s body. He was hating this already, but what other choice did he have? His father had threatened to cut him off from the family fortune after he called his stepmom a bitch. Understanding a woman’s perspective for a month was the only way to convince his dad not to take his trust fund away. It was all his stepmom’s idea. Rodney sighed. He’d rather suffer with being a woman for a month than suffer without his trust fund for the rest of his life! He had only had a woman’s body for a few minutes, but he already couldn’t wait for this month to be over!

Eric sat outside to take a moment to think about what to do next. He was trapped in a woman’s body in a strange place with no money, no phone, and no identification. For all he knew, he was miles from any sort of civilization. Also, whoever did this to him could be back at any minute. He would have to start walking, maybe hitch a ride once he found a road, and then figure out whose body he was in once he got to a town of any kind. It wasn’t much of a plan, but it seemed like the only viable option.

Neil returned his glasses to his personal locker. By this point, he was almost recovered from being in stasis, and he was starting to feel more and more comfortable with his new body. He went to the computers to see how his crew was doing. As it turned out, not well. The automated breeding program had not gone as well as hoped. Very few of the crew were going to be awoken in young, healthy bodies. A few would be stuck in older, infertile bodies from previous generations. Others didn’t have a body at all; they would remain as brains on the ship for the time being. It also seemed that the incubation systems aboard the ship would not be able to be used for future births. That meant that once they touched down on the planet, all females on the ship would need to start reproducing with as many different males as possible. This was needed to produce a sizable population with adequate genetic diversity. Neil’s face went white as he realized that since he was in a woman’s body now, he’d be pregnant for the rest of his adult life.
