Chores

Right before bed, Lana showed her husband Greg what she had found at a thrift store earlier that day. He examined in the cheap-looking medallion and wondered why she had been so excited to show him. Then, she reached over the touched it while he held it. Greg felt a shock run through his body. Then they both started to change. They were each slowly transforming into the other. Greg was shocked.

Lana could hardly contain her excitement now. "Now you see why I was so thrilled to show you, right?" She said in a voice that sounded like an odd mixture of his and her own, "We can switch back tomorrow after I get home from your work."

"You're going to go to my work?"

"Well, you certainly can't go with my body. Don't worry about it, I can handle it. You'll just have to take care a few of my chores, like cleaning and going to the grocery store."

The next day, Greg felt awkward walking around with Lana's body. Cleaning the entire house was tougher than he imagined. The grocery store was a little easier. That is, until a guy there started hitting on him. Greg felt even more strange after that. He politely declined the advanced, doing his best to mumble, "Sorry, I have a wi--er--husband." He couldn't wait for this day to end, for the his wife to get back home, and to use that medallion to switch back to his own body.

Just Fix It

Everyone at the company liked their boss, John McGuinness. He was a pretty laid back CEO that generally just let people do their work and avoided micromanaging. Still, he often liked seeing what people were working on. When he showed up on the floor of the Advanced Research Department with his assistant, they were happy to show him what they were working on.

The team began to show John a body swapper. His interest was piqued as he asked if they could show him a test. It took about an hour to set everything up. John watched as two of the researchers stood in front of the machine, preparing to be swapped. But when they activated in, something went wrong. Instead of the beam shooting out the front, it spilled out the sides, hitting John and his assistant. The machine was smoking, circuits were black and burnt.

John quietly asked a few of the leads to return with him to his office. He stumbled a little as he calmly walked back to his office, not quite used to his assistant's body nor how to balance on her heels. They clicked on the floor as he made his way down the halls. He stood behind his desk as the leads sat in front of it. One of them closed the door. John took a deep breath in.

Suddenly, his mood shifted. Gone was the friendly boss they all loved, gone was his cool demeanor. He threw things off his desk and began to scream, "Just fix it!" He yelled at all of them. He didn't want to be in the body of his assistant. He didn't want to be a 20-year-old woman. He wanted his body back and he wanted it NOW.

Question Mark

Brian's heart was racing as he flipped through the pages of the book. An hour ago, he had used a spell contained within to swap bodies with Esther. It was thrilling, fun, and exciting, but he was ready to get back to his own body. The only problem was that all the letters in the book had changed. They were all replaced with question marks. Every. Single. One. The book was filled with question mark after question mark. If he couldn't read it, how could he ever swap back?

Mind Exploding

As Rob settled into his room at the Exchange Island resort, the reality of the situation of his situation really began to set in. For the next two weeks, this gorgeous body was his. For the next two weeks, he was a woman. He was going to be dealing with wearing women's clothing, putting on makeup, and dealing with this long hair. It felt like his mind was exploding with all of this. He was sure he could do it, but it was going to be a one-of-a-kind experience.

Rolled

Todd jolted out of bed and rolled his eyes. He kept expecting to wake up and have this nightmare be over. He didn't want to be a woman anymore; he didn't want to be Ellen anymore. He wanted back to his own body. But that wasn't going to happen yet, not until that stupid machine got fixed that caused this body swap in the first place.

Time to Himself

Mei hadn't left Jeff alone for much time since they swapped bodies. She claimed that she wanted to keep an eye on him to make sure he didn't do anything "weird." In fact, one of the few times she gave him a moment to himself was when it was time to take a bath. Even then, she insisted he wear a bathing suit to cover up. He desperately wanted to take it off and look at Mei's body, but the latch was in the back. If he took it off, he wasn't sure he could get it back on. Then again, maybe he could just wait it out. It had been a week since they first swapped, and it didn't seem like they were going to swap back anytime soon. Maybe she'd just give up after a while and give him some time to himself...

Amusement

Over the course of the past year, Mr. Tong has noticed his wife get increasingly more icy toward him. He was worried until he came home one day and found her smiling. She couldn't stop talking about their teenage son's birthday tomorrow and their planned trip to the amusement park. Mr. Ton just figured that being their son, Max, get another year older finally broke his wife of her miserable mood. The reality was far stranger.

They had promised Max that they would take him to the amusement park for his birthday, but they weren't allowing him to bring any friends. Max found a clever work around with his friend, Lenny. Earlier in the day, the two teenage boys used a weird body swapping magic spell they had found on the internet. Mrs. Tong was tied up in Lenny's body down in the basement while Lenny was upstairs in Mrs. Tong's body. He didn't much care that he was presently in the body of a 30-something year old woman; he was just looking forward to going to the amusement park with his best friend tomorrow.

Of course, after the fun of the roller coasters, the bright lights, and the junk food, Lenny had planned to switch back to his own body. Mrs.Tong had other plans.

She had wanted to leave her husband for a while. The boys putting her inside of Lenny's body gave her the perfect out without having to deal with a divorce. While her husband, son, and Lenny enjoyed the amusement park, she broke free of her binds in the basement. She returned to Lenny's house, ready to live his life instead of her own. If he wanted to steal her body for a day, he should be stuck with it for a lifetime as far as she was concerned.

Grating

It had been pretty difficult for Frank walking home after the Great Shift put him into a body a few miles from his house. This was mostly due to the fact that the new body he had was female and wearing heels. All things considered, he thought he had the shoes figured out by the time he made it way to the steps behind his house. However, he hadn't learned not to step on grates yet. The pointy side of one of the shoes hit in a bad spot and Frank nearly lost his balance. He was thankful that he was able to catch himself on the railing. He realized it just went to show that he had so much to learn about being in this new body and being a woman.
