Chapter 4: Estrogen Overload
"Very impressive, Jay. You built this?" Zane had been excitedly called down by his blue-clad brother to meet him in his laboratory for a "super-duper-mega-awesome-surprise", so to speak. And since the white ninja was just as intrigued as Jay by the genre of nuts and bolts, he was, of course, to be the first one privileged to see Jay's newest creation in its completion.
"You bet I did." Jay replied, smirking and removed his work gloves. He pushed his welding goggles onto his head and planted his hands proudly on his narrow hips. "Isn't it cool?! It took me three months to finish this baby, but I did it! And man, am I psyched to fire it up!"
"Hmm…fascinating…" Zane circled the large-scale contraption as if it were an exotic animal at the zoo. It looked to be some sort of containment unit, but the console connected to it suggested something far more complex than just simply placing something inside the machine. "What does it do?" Zane asked, stopping once he reached the front of Jay's invention again.
The cheeky brunette beamed. "It's a transformer!"
Zane blinked, perplexed. "Why would you need to build a transformer? Is there a device that needs its electrical energy changed?" Hazel optics suddenly widened with fear. "Please don't tell me you plan on using this on yourself, Jay? What if you got hurt? Cole would lose his mind. And Lloyd would definitely lose his…and most likely blame Cole in the process."
Confused, Jay cocked his scarred eyebrow. "Huh? No, no, Zane. Not that kind of transformer, I'm talking about having the capability to change into something else! Something no one on Ninjago has ever been able to pull off before!"
Jay's enthusiasm was electric as he braced his hands on his older brother's shoulders, his blue eyes shining brightly. "Just think about it, Zane. If my invention is successful then not only will this be a huge leap for science, but it could help mankind as a whole in so many different ways!" He suddenly turned serious as he looked ice ninja in the eye. "And I need your help, brother."
Zane's lips thinned with uncertainty. "So you do plan on using this on yourself?" It wasn't really a question, but Jay nodded nonetheless.
"Of course," He said, letting go of his would-be assistant and striding confidently towards the door of his machine. "It's my invention, so it's only right that I should be the guinea pig. That's my rule, after all."
"But Jay…" It was obvious Zane was worried. However, the Master of Lightning was far too determined to be deterred. He grasped the handle of the door tightly.
"*Sigh* Look Zane, I know I'm running a big risk here. One I'm sure not even Kai would take and try to talk me out of it. And Cole and Lloyd would just flat-out refuse to help me, because of the danger. But you… I know you care about me too, but you're sensible. Plus…" A dash of pink dusted his cheeks. "You and I are from the same mold. We both know what it's like to have a protective boyfriend, so I just thought…"
Zane's hand landed on Jay's shoulder and the latter looked over it to see his brother's smiling face. "Enough said, I will help you, Jay." The grip on the brunette's shoulder unexpectedly tightened and Zane's grin fell away to a frown. "But promise me that if something goes wrong, we stop. No questions."
Jay smiled and nodded. "Absolutely! I promise."
After that was said, Jay spent a little time informing Zane of the console's functions and how to input commands. And since the Russian hybrid was as studious as he was adept, it took only once for him to understand the controls of Jay's creation.
"Okay, and that's it," Jay said, finishing with the explanation. "Now let's get the show on the road! We'll start with something simple…" He pondered his decision for a moment before snapping his fingers in getting an epiphany. "Alright! Let's go with "cat". Hit it, Zane!"
"Understood…Inputting "cat"…now…" Once Zane finished calibrating the controls to a "cat's specifics, he signaled to Jay that he was done. And grinning with a thumbs-up, Jay entered the door of his "transformer".
More than a little fretful, Zane hit the "Power" button and watched with bated breath as the machine roared to life. It appeared to be working well enough, until the lab's lights flickered sporadically and electrical fuses snapped and sparked from the doors panel.
"Jay! What's happening!?" Zane yelled anxiously. He looked down at the console's controls to find many of the buttons flashing uncontrollably.
"Zane! Help! I-I can't get the door open!" Jay shouted back in a panic, and Zane ran to help. He grabbed the door's handle and pulled as hard as he could, while Jay pushed from the other side, but the door wouldn't budge. Meanwhile, the machine started to emit an ear-bleeding screech, and surges of electrical energy entered Jay's chamber and engulfed him.
"AAAAHHHHH!"
"Jay!" In a mad panic to help his friend, Zane channeled his power and froze the handle which subsequently gave him the ability to break it off and get inside. However, as soon as reached inside to grab Jay to yank him out, the sporadic veins of raw power enveloped him as well.
"AAAAAAAHHHHHHH!"
After blowing yet another fuse, the "transformer" shut down with an elongated groan and the lab's lights flickered one more time before staying on. Smoke emanated from the machine as the two occupants tried to regain their bearings.
"Ohhhh man, my head—ugh…" Jay groaned, clutching onto Zane and the latter waved a hand in an effort to lessen the fog.
"Yes, mine too, but at least we are alive…phew…"
"Hey…hee hee…you sound funny…"
"It's not just me, Jay… You do too…"
Little by little the smoke lessened until the two ninja could get a clear glimpse of each other. And upon seeing the other, both blinked at exactly the same time.
What Jay saw appeared to be Zane, only…a much more feminine version. His face was softer, rounder, and his gravity-defying hair was gone and instead was parted asymmetrically and fell over the side of his forehead and face, giving him the all-famous Alexandra-style.
And what Zane saw was also as stupefying, because while Jay still looked pretty much like Jay…his features screamed femininity. The long dark lashes that surrounded his stunning sapphire eyes were still present, but Jay's face was rather heart-shaped and cuter, complete with a pretty button-like nose. But the most defining and different feature about Jay had to be his hair. It was long…very long, the ends nearly touching the floor as it cascaded over and down his shoulders in rich sunset-chestnut waves.
Still in perfect synch and unison, they pointed at each other and said:
"Why are you a girl?"
In shock, they froze. And again, as one…they slowly looked down at their chests…but oddly, Jay was the only one who screamed at seeing his new…assets… While Zane just gazed at his large mounds most curiously.
"Fascinating…"
However, Jay was not as intrigued. "How in the hell did this happen?!" He—She shrieked. "This is not what I meant when I said "cat"! Argh!" Letting go of Zane, Jay made to run out of the machine, but tripped and fell out instead.
"Oww… What the hell?" She moaned, rolling onto her back to clutch her chest painfully. "Note to self, falling on your chest as a girl hurts, especially when you don't have a bra on! Dammit! My clothes are too big now!"
Yes, as was the reason for her painful stumble. Jay's clothes now hung off his curvy body at awkward angles since he had shrunk in size, but amusingly enough, his shirt was rather…tight. She sat up gingerly with tears in her eyes and yelled at the other transformed man. "Zane! Stop groping yourself and help me!"
Knocked from her own little world of self-exploration Zane turned and stepped carefully out of the "transformer" and approached her fallen friend. With an arm nestled under her bulging breasts, Zane quickly tugged up her loose pants before stretching out a dainty hand to help Jay up.
"Why the hell am I crying?! I'm not that hurt! Man, I feel so weird…" Jay sniffed, and shimmied over to the sparking console.
"Yes, as do I," Zane said, following. "I am not sure how I could've been affected by the transformation given my cyber-organic properties. It is most intriguing."
"Not really when you think about it," Jay mumbled, unhinging a panel to look inside. "You said so yourself that you're a cyber-organic organism. While your exoskeleton may be comprised of titanium, you have artificial organs that function similar to human's, but work much more efficiently. That's where your circuits—AKA blood vessels—and white blood comes into play. My invention was made to reconfigure the skeletal structure and organs of any organism, and thus transforming them into a new one while maintaining primary appearances. Hence, that's why we still look like ourselves. Now, if we had become cats like we were supposed to, no doubt we would still have some of our physical characteristics…GODDAMMIT! THE TRANFLUXOR COIL IS FRIED!" Jay yelled and slammed her hands on the console angrily.
Meanwhile, Zane was smiling very happily at her crestfallen brother—er, sister. "You are most incredible, Jay. Your intelligence never ceases to amaze me." She rested a hand on the brunette's shoulder, still grinning. "Don't fret too much, sister. For there is a silver-lining…your invention worked in a sense. And to change back, all we need to do is reverse the polarity, correct?"
Jay moaned and moved her goggles to dangle around her neck. "I guess so and yeah, but we need the tranfluxor coil to do it," she lamented, massaging her temples.
"Well then we'll just order one online," Zane suggested. "And if we hurry, we may be able to receive it by tomorrow."
Perking back up, Jay pumped her fist with optimism. "Right! Then let's do it!" She then turned quickly to Zane. "But do you have any idea on how we should explain this to—"
Just then, the laboratory doors burst opened and in ran a trio of men—Cole, Lloyd, and Kai respectively. "Jay! Zane! You two okay!?" Cole shouted worriedly. "We heard a…a…"
The trio of ninja stopped in their tracks and stared at the two women that looked like they could be the aforementioned sisters. "What the fuck…?" Kai's sharp eyes roamed up and down Zane's body, not believing for a second that his lovely boyfriend could be the woman before him… That is until he noticed the clothes…which were what the nindroid had been wearing the last time he had seen him. "Zane?"
Cole was having a similar reaction, only he didn't vocalized his wonder. He knew right away that Jay was the brunette woman in front of him. The resemblance was too uncanny. The ninja leader immediately slapped a hand over his face when he felt the all too familiar trickle of blood seep from his nose.
Damn! Jay's hot no matter what sex he is!
"Kaasan…" Lloyd whispered, taking a tentative step forward. "What…happened…?"
Jay laughed nervously. "Well ya'know—heh…science isn't perfect. Just a little experiment that went awry, that's all. But don't worry, I can fix it."
"So this wasn't on purpose?" Lloyd asked, stopping in front of his mother-figure. "That's a relief…"
"Yeah… But more importantly, Lloyd. Aren't you supposed to be in bed? You're still sick, remember?"
But the blond shook his head. "Not so much anymore. Your soup really did the trick, kaasan." A concerned frown creased his lips. "Actually, I'm more worried about you. You look kinda drained…"
"Ah…must be an effect from the transformation," Jay said, wiping his suddenly sweaty brow. "I…"
The world suddenly tilted as black dots peppered Jay's vision, and once again in unison, Jay and Zane both fainted. Reacting instantly, Kai sprinted forward and caught his lover before she could hit the floor while Lloyd picked up his kaasan.
"Damn, they're both out," Kai muttered, lifting Zane into his arms. "What should we do now?"
"What else? We take care of them," Cole said, and held out his arms for Lloyd to pass Jay to him. "Here Lloyd, give Jay to me," he said, but the green ninja's face quickly darkened into a scowl.
"And why would I leave my kaasan in your hands, Captain Perv?" He growled. "You'll just try to molest her!"
Cole frowned indignantly. "Don't be ridiculous! Jay means everything to me, so stop being so damn protective all the time!"
Kai rolled his eyes as the black and green ninjas continued to argue back and forth. He looked down at his transformed boyfriend and sighed. "Don't know why you got involved in this, Diamond…" He turned and walked towards the exit, leaving the others behind. He smirked. "But hey…I'll take care you…"
And he knew in either hands—Lloyd or Cole's—Jay would be taken care of as well.
Author's Note: Meh, kinda figured to end it here since I lost the drive to continue. Hope it was okay though.
