Have Fun

“And just what do you think you’re wearing?”

Paul turned around to hear the small voice ask him. He looked and sighed, “You need to accept that this is not your body anymore, Jen. It’s my body now thanks to the Great Shift, and that means I can dress it any way I like. Sure, I humored you for the first week or so, but it doesn’t look like this massive body swapping thing is going to reverse itself anytime soon, so I’ve accepted who I am now. And you need to accept who you are now, too. I get that it’s going to be tough for you, seeing me in your former body. And it’s also going to be tough that you ended up in the body of a 7-year-old girl. You’re going to have to go through the whole process of growing up all over again, and maybe you’ll end up just as attractive as you were...as I am now. And that will be your body and you can do what you want with it. Until then, just try to have fun. You have a second childhood ahead of you, so many people would kill for that kind of opportunity. I know I am going to have my own fun with your body...”

Reality Sets In

Marco hadn’t remembered falling asleep, but he was sure this was a pretty interesting dream. It felt like he was in a woman’s body, and he was having the time of his life running his hands up and down to explore it. The weirdest part was how real it all felt; this body responded in ways he couldn’t even imagine.

Of course, he’d be a little more upset when he realized that he wasn’t actually dreaming. He had actually swapped bodies with a woman. While he may be having some fun right now, he certainly didn’t want to deal with all the social aspects of being a woman. He’d have to deal with lower pay, being cat called on the street,  going to the gynecologist, and a while lot more. The fun he was having right now would wear off soon as reality sets in.

A Drink First

Quite a few things had changed since Richard’s previous visit to Exchange Island. It had become quite a bit more trendy, attracting quite a few new shops and plenty of high end guests. Of course, he was quite happy with the body of the spoiled rich woman that he ended up in, but he had serious qualms with most of the outfits she had brought with her. He felt quite silly wearing some of these things. Of course, with all the new stores on the island, he was sure he could find a few things to buy to wear for his stay...but maybe a drink first?

Witness

It was still pretty hard to believe. After Greg had finished up on the witness stand of the high profile case, the government’s lawyers had him quickly escorted outside into a van. He was driven to a safe house where the procedure took place. Only a small number of people knew that the witness relocation program had such a service and only a select few ever qualified. Greg was one of the few. At the safe house, his mind was transfered into a new body. He was given a folder with information about his new life. He was now a woman by the name of Ellie Chan. She had gone brain dead a few years back, but the government had preserved her body. Greg felt weird about the fact that it was his body now being preserved somewhere in this building -- with Ellie’s brain now inside. He tried not to think about it as he read over the notes. But he was constantly distracted; it felt weird for him, being a woman now. He wondered if he should have refused to come forward or refused to testify. He knew it was the right thing to do, but if he didn’t, he’d still have his own body and his own life.

Looks Matter

“Honestly, John, I don’t know how you think you’re going to pull this off.” Kelly said, “I mean, look at how you’re dealing with my body. Did you find that shirt in the back of my closet? It barely fits me any more. The buttons are practically popping off. You aren’t going to be able to pass yourself off as me forever.”

“People will ignore the little things,” John sighed, “What matters is that I have your body. I look like you. People will believe their eyes. That’s all that’s needed to pull this off. Hope you enjoy being stuck in my body.”
