Stronger

Al was originally upset about the body he ended up in after the Great Shift. He was now a woman; he didn't want to be a woman! However, he soon discovered an upside to this new body; it was incredibly limber. He had been concerned about how weak a woman's body was, but after trying out some things, he was sure this new body of his could take someone down in a fight. In fact, all things considered, it was probably stronger than his old body. And he never would've guessed it just from looking at himself.

Once a Month

"This doesn't mean that I want your body," She said as she aimed the gun at your, "But I am cursed. If I wait more than 30 days to steal my next body, I will die. You'll like this body; it's a good know. It might be tough adapting to a new gender for you, but I've done it countless times. I've been a man, a woman, old, young, every race imaginable...I am a little excited to be a man again, though I won't be in possession of your body for too long. In another month, I'll be threatening another person just like I'm threatening you now. And then the cycle just keeps going."

No Deposit Required

Eric didn't really need a roommate when he placed an ad in the paper; he just needed a test subject. He never expected a gorgeous woman like Chloe to respond to the ad. He immediately agreed to let her move in with no deposit required. After moving in, he observed her schedule closely. Her daily morning yoga that she did in the living room would provide him with his opening. As she leaned down, he approached her with the device. Then he zapped her. Chloe's head lurched upward while Eric's body dropped to the floor. He couldn't believe it. The device had actually worked! He now possessed her body -- at least until the effect wore off.

Celebrate

Unlike most of those affected by the Great Shift, Liam couldn't be happier. In fact, he considered his new female body a reason to go out and celebrate. It took a while for him to find a club that was open, and even when he went inside, it was pretty desolate. He didn't care. After downing a drink, he was out on the dance floor. He loved his new body, and it was a reason to celebrate!

Bummed

Ryan was bummed at first when he swapped bodies with his sister. He knew he was going to be stuck like this for a few hours. But his mood turned when he thought of all sorts of interesting possibilities this afforded him. He soon headed to the gym to check out the women's only yoga class. As he watched the various women in the class, he felt like he wanted to get turned on. However, something seemed wrong. He was getting turned on, but he didn't exactly FEEL turned on. Then it dawned on him, he was lacking something between his legs that he usually associated with that feeling. Then it further dawned on him that being in his sister's body might mean that he wasn't attracted to women at all!

Role Exchanger

The effects of the Role Exchanger on his office building had been quite severe, but Peter had a feeling it wasn't done yet. For some reason, he seemed to one of only a handful of people who even noticed the changes and one of even fewer who caught a glimpse of it. When he followed it outside, it reacted quickly, completely swapping his body with a woman on the street. Peter was undeterred, but as he looked around, it seemed the Role Exchanger was gone. In fact, despite his own swap, nobody else outside seemed effected. It was all pretty normal with the sole exception of the fact that he was now a gorgeous Asian woman and she was now in his body.

Becoming Her

Jeff pressed his hands against his face. His beard was gone, replaced with remarkably smooth skin. Seeing his reflection in the mirror, he immediately recognized it even from across the room. After all, it matched the numerous cutouts from magazines he had put up on the wall behind him. He was mildly obsessed with this particular model, but it was pure shocked that obsession would turn into actually becoming her! While part of him was excited, he wasn't quite sure if he wanted this.

Focus

It seemed like an innocent request. A guy stopped Jacqueline and asked her if she wouldn't mind snapping a quick photo for him.He handed her his phone and noted the camera app was a little unusual. She tried not to think too much of it as she took the picture. But as she did so, her vision blurred, and she got light-headed. She refocused, but saw a strange sight before her -- herself! She could only stand there dumbfounded as her former body smiled and snatched the phone back.

"Thanks for the photo...and the body," She heard her body say as it walked away. Jacqueline couldn't believe it; the guy that asked her to take a photo for him had somehow stolen her body and left her in his!

Slumping

Lance woke up, not exactly wondering why he felt so odd. Then he began to remember everything that happened last night, and he slumped back down onto the bed. Lance felt that even bringing his head back down to the bed felt sort of sexy in this body. Heck, if he remembered correctly, everything this body did felt sexy! Walking, eating, drinking, even going to the bathroom! It's what she was complaining about at the bar when he had sarcastically yelled, "Sounds like a tough life" at her. It was shortly afterward that they somehow swapped bodies. It was like some force overheard their argument. Of course, Lance didn't really have any complaints about how every movement he made felt so sexy. He was planning on enjoying every minute of this new body!

Hybrid

While Jim surely expected there might be odd side effects from the machine he was developing in his basement, he never expected anything like this. The thing essentially created mini-black holes intended to be able to study Hawking Radiation and the speed of light. Instead, the small dots attached to his skin, then they began sucking things in. He first absorbed his cat, then a human body came hurling towards him as well as several storage boxes. He ended up absorbing aspects of any living matter the mini-black holes sucked in. As a result, he became a strange mixture of himself, his cat, and the woman that had hurled toward him. He also ended up with a Santa hat on his head from Christmas decorations in one of the storage boxes. His face felt strange; at first, he thought he was simply because he was now more cat in his face than man (or woman), but then he lifted the hat and was shocked to discover a second set of eyes. As if being a weird cat-woman hybrid wasn't strange enough for him!

Looks Like My Face

"Your face...it looks like my face," Jason said shocked.

Lea smiled. "That's not all," She told him.

"Wait, what?" His jaw dropped when he realized that she not only looked like him, but he looked like her. They had completely swapped bodies. He had so many questions, like how she did this and how long it would last. But for now all he could do was sit there with his mouth wide open, not sure what to even say.

Do a Little Dance

"Okay, so what, exactly, do I have to do for you to use your magic and get me my body back?" A frustrated Warren asked.

"How about you do a little dance for me?" Lauren teased.

"How's this?" He replied while slightly shaking his hips.

"You don't seem too enthused. You could put a little more feeling into it, or at least smile a little."

Warren rolled his eyes and sighed, "If you insist..."

"Nevermind. I changed my mind. I won't be changing you back just yet. I don't think you've learned your lesson..."

Text

Carl had ignored most of the previous texts from the woman he trapped in his former body, but this one was a little different. The words were the spell he had used to steal this woman's body in the first place. He couldn't believe she had found it. He knew she couldn't use it to reverse his swap and get her body back. She might use it to steal a new body for herself more to her liking. But what he was worried about was if she found a way to release this to the public. A person swapping bodies with someone else here or there was one thing, but happening all the time would cause chaos, He didn't want to talk to her, but he finally felt compelled to text back to help keep this under wraps.

Strange (Part 2)

Click here for Part 1.

The object soon disappeared and William's gaze broke. As he continued on to his kitchen to grab a snack, he still didn't notice the change to his body. In fact, it wasn't until he was halfway done eating that it all finally dawned on him. He grabbed his hair in shock, realizing how much longer it was now. Of course, the hair was probably the least concerning change. He was just wasn't ready to reach down to feel his chest or between his legs. He knew what he'd find, but he didn't want to think about. For some reason, it didn't occur to him that the odd transformation may have been caused by the even odder object that had transfixed him so before it mysteriously disappeared.

Strange (Part 1)

William didn't know what the strange object was or what it was doing in his house. All he knew was that he was transfixed by it and couldn't stop staring. As his gaze fixated, he became completely unaware of the changes to his body. William's transformation from male to female happened without him even noticing; all he could do was stare.
