Of Nature and Magic
Chapter 1: What a strange flower
"I've never seen a flower like that before" was what I said to myself as i looked at the strange yet beautiful plant. I had decided to get out of the house for awhile just so I could have a walk around the nearby park; while observing the trees and all the plants my eyes are drawn to this one flower that looks out of place with all the other foliage. It had several leaves on the stem that started out oval like then at the end of them they had three points that poked out like the top of a crown, as for the flower itself it had five pink petals each one having the same description as the leaves but what stood out the most was what looked like a necklace resting on the middle of the flower. 'Did someone leave this here?' I thought but yet why on a flower? It all seemed odd to me I didn't want to pick it up but my curiosity got the best of me and I ended up lifting it off the flower. Examining the now definite necklace I was shocked to see how identical it looked to a necklace I know from a show I love. The necklace had what looked like a small bottle shaped like a four petal pink flower with a flower bud lid, surrounding it was a darker pink (once again) four petal shaped frame. It looked just like Flora's fairy dust bottle from Winx club, deciding to take the necklace with a hint of fear of stealing looming over my head I wonder back home.
I turn the fairy dust bottle around in my hands marveling at the craftsmanship, it looked incredibly real and dare I say magical. Now a 17 year old boy watching a show about fairies by itself would be cause for embarrassment if anyone were to find out, but wearing something that would relate to said show would be a step even further to greater embarrassment, of course to me it was too tempting to not try on, I mean how many times do you get to try on something that would be worn by a character from your favorite show? And at that you're favorite character? Slipping the necklace over my head I internally shout at how awesome this is before walking over to a nearby mirror to look at myself. My parents were out so I was good for another hour or so to wear it around. I didn't do anything significant just read or played games while wearing the fairy dust necklace, of course I was unaware of the pink glow that emitted from the necklace and then enveloped me before fading as if nothing happened. I walked back to the mirror again to notice something off, my skin was slightly darker as in was tanned a good amount and my dirty blonde/light brown hair had grown an inch or two, darkened a small amount to a caramel colored brown and the blonde strands at the front of my face were brighter. I was pretty confused seeing this but ended up shrugging it off, my hair had always grown pretty fast so I didn't pay it much attention as for my skin…well that was confusing but maybe the sun did a number on me good when I was outside earlier. When my parents returned I took off the necklace and hid it in my room. Luckily they didn't notice my slight changes, later feeling tired I went to bed and slept unaware of the pink glow that surrounded me once again.
Waking up the next day I awake to something that didn't feel right.
Chapter 2: Something is going on here
Looking at myself in the mirror I see that my eyes had turned a very nice shade of green from blue, my hair had grown an inch again and my face seemed slightly…feminine… on reflex I go to my crotch to find that I couldn't feel it down there and my body itself was slimmer and close to feminine in appearance. If I were to wear girls clothes people would not be the wiser and not think otherwise. What how was this happening? Looking towards the necklace strewn out on my bed side table I automatically assume that it's the culprit. Before I can do anything else my mom calls me from downstairs "Jared can you get ready for school now". I reply "Alright be down in a second". Hopefully they don't notice again. Fortunately they didn't pay much attention except for my dad's common joking about cutting my hair besides that I was good. Later at school pretty much nothing changed no staring or snickering nothing. I guess my normal appearance wasn't too far off from my small changes I now had.
A while later making my way to my five friends to eat recess I notice that my friends had some changes too and they all looked worried about it. Hayden noticed my appearance and seemed more confused and worried then before. Getting a closer look at the guys I can see Hayden has Bright Orange hair instead of Black with blue eyes, Ray had jet black hair with purplish eyes, Chase had bright Blonde hair (which he wasn't too fond of) with amber eyes, John had dark brown hair with blue eyes and Ted had odd pinkish hair with blue eyes. I sat down next to Hayden and began to speak "So It seems I'm not the only one to find a strange necklace". Hayden speaks up "You found one too? I came to school really embarrassed as people looked at my hair and when I met with the others I found out that they had changed too". "Why is it happening to us of all people, why did my hair turn blonde too?" Chase piped up. I spoke again "I'm not sure why it's happening but for some reason those necklaces were trying to be found and found by us." John sighed "Well whatever it is we need to just act like nothing is different and if anyone does mention it well just say it was a prank or bet" Ted spoke up "John's right if we don't fuss about it too much we won't get into trouble that we can't get out of". We all agreed much to Chase's still visible irritation of his now blonde hair and began to walk off to our next class when Ray asked (with visible discomfort) "D-Did you guys…notice something different…down below" Ray growing a bright red blush across is face. We all turned to him showing our equally red faces and only nodded at his question.
The rest of the day went as usual besides the odd question about appearance and all, the guys and I all agreed if things got worse, we would meet up at a spot to discuss it when we all had the time. Returning home I make my way to my room to read for awhile and to ponder why I and my friends were turning into the Winx. My appearance alone and necklace spoke Flora and looking at my friends they all were looking like the rest of the club. They didn't know my love for the show but soon enough if this continued they may need to.
After dinner I went to have a shower saying goodnight to my parents as I would be going to bed straight after. Going to the shower I strip naked noticing my changed body. I check the changes i really did have…that thing… my hips were wider and my eyes looked bigger and cuter. Stepping inside I begin to shower cleaning my self off feeling how soft my skin now felt (my hairs on my legs and arms were gone replaced with smooth skin) the pink glow appeared again and once again I was oblivious to the changes, washing my hair I run my fingers through it as it continued to grow and grow it did, instead of an inch or two it grew very long all the way to just below my butt(which was rounder and cushioned) nearly to the back of my knees. Stepping out of the Shower I finally notice the extent of my changes including my now awesome longer hair and my unmistakable completely feminine body. I looked just like Flora. I was shocked at the very least not knowing what else to do I dry myself of and my hair as best I could before wrapping it up in a towel like girls do and another one for my body seeing now that it was completely female and made my way to my room to get changed… somehow. Getting into a pair of older pajamas that would be too tight on a boy of my age that now fit my body somewhat well; I get into bed and fall asleep.
Chapter 3: Powers and Transformations
Waking up the next day I yawn briefly, noticing my voice had also changed to hers. Getting out of bed my thoughts are on things like clothes (including the under garment ones) I couldn't hide my changed body for very long so it would come to me having to wear girls clothes eventually.
Descending the stairs I sigh happily that my parents weren't up just yet so I needed to get breakfast and eat it quickly then get back upstairs ASAP. After moving about to get some cereal and a piece of fruit I eat as fast as I could while trying not to seem messy. Finishing my breakfast I clean my bowl and then dash upstairs to get ready for school. Going into the bathroom I get a better view of the changes to my body. Flora had always been one of the most beautiful of the Winx and that didn't change here with me. Trying not to ogle myself so much I do all the basics in the bathroom (brushing teeth and all that), now I brushed my hair before all this happened but now that my hair reached nearly to my knees, brushing it would take quite awhile; but since I like to brush it I decided what's the harm. I ended up really enjoying brushing my hair and I think I spent about nearly 15 minutes just brushing it. Satisfied with how it looked I went onto the next task: covering up so people won't see me looking like a girl.
I eventually managed to get some fabric bandages and wrapped them around my chest tightly, next I wore several articles of clothing underneath my uniform to make my body look more male again I did the same with my legs (fortunately it was cold outside), next I tie my hair into a bun and cover my mouth and the bun so it wouldn't be recognized, finally a beanie on my head school was going to be just great.
My disguise worked well for the most part, some stares here and there but overall no one noticed. When it came to English however is when things got tricky. Hayden and Chase were in my English class and they too were covered up like me people got suspicious of the amount of clothes all three of us had on compared to the rest of the class. The teacher asked us to take some clothes off to which Hayden replied with "its part of a bet my friends and I are doing" that apparently worked and Chase and I thanked him for his quick thinking. At recess all the guys met up at a secluded spot so no one would see us.
I spoke up "So the changes have progressed and this time basically fully" John spoke next "We are all completely girls now it seems" "Why do I have to sound like this though!" Chase shouted with his now Stella voice. Ray tried to calm Chase down "Its okay Chase don't make it seem like a big deal remember" But Chase wasn't having it "But it is a big deal we can't keep this up forever people will find out eventually and I'll die if embarrassment he/she wined. "Look we will meet up at the spot when we have more time to think about this just stay calm till then" Ted instructed. I finished off "And I think I may know what's going on with us but I'll let you guys know then" I said. They all nodded and we all went back to class.
