//------------------------------// // Chapter 3, Change Insues // Story: Life Change, in 127.8 Seconds // by Cool writer //------------------------------// I was lying there on the ground, occasionally convulsing in pain. "What did you do to me?" I groaned. "It was an accident I swear!" Dusk Glider (the bat pony) said apologetically. "Yes, but what did you- gah!" The pain was getting worse. And then, my whole body went numb, I couldn't move! I tried to ask what was happening, but my words got caught in my throat when I saw what was happening to my hand (wich had conveniently landed in front of my face). My hand suddenly bloated! I tried to scream when my fingers shrunk into my bloated hand, followed by my hand hardening and changing shape. Then, grey fur began to sprout on it! I almost fainted. Then I realised, that it looked an awful lot like... Dusk's hoof. I was turning into a pony!!! I tried to call out for help, praying that anyone would hear me, but all that came out was a groan. "Shhhh." Dusk hushed me. "It's gonna be ok, don't worry." He started stroking me in an attempt to comfort me. It failed. The fur began to spread up my arm (the one that I realised had been bitten) and to my chest and torso. I couldn't see it anymore, but I could feel it happening. Each little poke that signified my new fur coat. Dusk lowered his head, took my shirt in his mouth, and started to pull it off. I groaned in protest, but Dusk took no notice. The hair on top of my head also began to tingle. I felt it growing longer, and some hair in front of my face turned blue. I expected the same was happening to the rest of it. I felt my only remaining hand turn into a hoof, as my arm was covered in fur. I felt the fur sweep over my torso, growing at an incredible rate. The fur growth covered my head and continued downward. At this point, I was slowly regaining the ability to move. I rolled onto my back to get a good look at my front. It was completely covered in grey fur. I began to feel the fur growing down the back of my legs. I kicked off my shoes, just as the fur reached them. Dusk moved towards my legs and pulled off my pants. This left me with only my bra and underwear. Then, all the numbness in my body vanished. I stood up, so I could get a good look at myself. From my head to my feet was covered in grey fur. The back of my neck was connected to an extension to my hair. I pushed it with my hooves to push my hair to my face to look at it. It had (indeed) turned blue. I looked down at my feet, as they began to change into hooves as well. I now had four hooves. Suddenly, a navy blue (half of it was a lighter navy blue) burst through my underwear. I blushed intensely. Dusk looked confused at my embarrassment. "Just turn around," I say to him angrily. Dusk shrugged and did. I held my arms out in front of me as they started to tingle and change shape. My legs and spine did the same. I then fell forward, as my legs shrunk. My ears tingled as they grew long and climbed to the top of my head. The stopped tingling, swiveled around, and (when I realized how scared I was) pressed flat against my head. My eyes began to water and grow larger, and finally: my mouth pushed out into a muzzle. I had become a full pony, in under two minutes.
