The gentle summer sun began to rise over the town of Green Meadow, it's golden rays bringing the light of a new day to the towns sleepy inhabitants. This very day, it was a saturday to be precise, would be an interesting one for a member of the get along gang.

Woolma Lamb had just gotten dressed and proceeded to Groom her wool, paint her nails, put her make-up and groom her wool again, in that order. She was to meet the other members of the gang at the clubhouse caboose at 8:30. this was great...Except it was now 9:00.

She was half an hour late.

She JUST realized this fact the moent she got downstairs. She Rushed out the door as fast as she could. She hoped her friends would show sympathy to her plight.

Montgomery tapped his left foot impatiently. She was late AGAIN.

"Where the heck could she be? It's nine already" he said. "She's alway late!" said Dotty. "There are times I wish she wouldn't obsess over her looks." grumbled Zipper. They then head the sound of high heels hitting the ground and heavy breathing.

"*pant*Am I*pant*late?" asked an exhausted Woolma. "Your're late again Woolma. that's the ninth time this month." said Zipper. "If you didn't take so long preening yourself we wouldn't have to stall club meetings." "It's not a crime to be beautiful." Woolma replied in a snooty manner.

"It's worse than a crime, it's become an obsession." cried Dotty. "Dotty's right. You've got to realise that looks aren't everything." Said Bingo. "Well...I guess I have been taking a little to long trying to look my best." Said Woolma aplogetically. "A LITTLE?." scoffed Zipper. "You took all morning to get pretty." Zipper said the last two words in a mocking tone of voice.

"So what, You think all girls do is look attractive?" argued Woolma. "Looks Like it to me." Zipper retorted. "WILL YOU BOTH STOP AGUING FOR JUST ONE MOMENT?"Yelled Montgomery. They stopped immidiately. Dotty then had an idea.

"YOU WANT US TO WHAT?" Woolma and Zipper cried in unison.

"Switch genders." said Dotty. "...uhh...Dotty? I don't think thats possible." said Bingo. "Yeah. I'm with Bingo on this one." said Montgomery. "I don't mean literally." said Dotty. "I have a plan that could snub this argument. You two wouldn't really be switching genders, just the roles for three days"

"What do you mean?" asked Woolma. "Well Woolma, I want you to Act more like a boy. This means dressing in boy clothes. no dresses and no make-up. you may brush your hair though." She then turned to Zipper. "Zipper, I want you to get in touch with your feminine side. That means dressing like a girl-" "NO WAY!" ZIpper interrupted. "Please don't inturrpt me Zipper." Dotty growled. Once she muted his protest, she continued.

"As I was saying, i want you to act like a girl. this means wearing girl clothes and putting on make-up." Zipper shuddered as Woolma simply mulled it over. "Hopefully you learn something from this." Said Dotty. A few minutes passed before dotty heard a "...I'm in." from a reluctant Zipper. "I'll do it." said Woolma. "Great!" exclaimed Dotty.

"Just one problem." said Montgomery. "Whats that?" aske Dotty. "Where are they going to get the clothes?" bingo chimed in. "I have some clothes that I don't really wear. I could let Woolma borrow them if she wants." "And I have some old clothes i don't need that would be perfect for Zipper." Said Dotty.

Zipper simply thought "What have I gotten myself into this time?"

The next day, the test began. Woolma was wearing a yellow headband on her forehead, a plain white t-shirt, a pair of overalls, and a pair of black sneakers. She hadn't done her hair and wore no make up today. This meant that you could easily mistake her for a boy.

Zipper on the other hand, Wore a light green sundress, a pair of white stockings and green mary janes. They both looked each other over.

"You don't look half bad Woolma." Zipper said. "And you look...*snicker*Pretty." laughed Woolma. "Don't laugh. I even put on the panties." This made Woolma and Bingo Bust up laughing. "You better be wearing boy underwear." said Zipper. Woolma Stopped laughing.

"W-What do you mean?" she asked. "You know the deal. It's a complete switch." "I know." replied Woolma. "Then why are you wearing girl underwear?" asked Zipper. "I'm not." said Woolma."then why the deer-in-the-headlights look?" "I'm not...Wearing any..underwear,,,"

They all went silent, Bingo turning beet red. finally Montgomery asked "...Why not?" "I thought boys didn't use underwear..." said Woolma sheepishly.

Another awkward silence before Dotty cleared her throat. "Moving on." shae said "As I said before, You two have to live the next three days as a boy/girl. You can't quit until 72 hours have passed. I have gotten help from two other members. Flora will help Zipper out and Rocco will help Woolma adjust. any questions?"

They remained silent. "Alright then." said Dotty "The test starts...NOW!"
