Elliot

"I will." Elliot spoke. His voice wasn't as confident as he hoped but he raised his hand and repeated himself. "I will." A round of applause came up from the guys, cheering Elliot's confidence. Casey watched closely as silence fell on all of them. Elliot reached out a shaking hand and dipped it into the bowl. He was trying to control hos breathing but failing as the nerves racked his body. He had drawn one of the small pink pills and held it in his fingers for a second. "Will, will it hurt if it is one?" He asked, glancing round. "No, it's pretty painless." Joseph said before inclining his head towards Elliot. Swallowing, Elliot closed his eyes, counted to three silently, his lips moving and then tossed the pill back into his throat. He coughed, swallowing hard before coughing again. He grabbed a beer and took a gulp before sucking in some air with a tight breath. Everyone was watching, collectively holding their breath as they waited to see if he had taken an actual X-Change, or the sugar pill.

"How'd you feel?" Asked Lucas. "I don't, I guess normal. How long does it-" He stopped, a hand shooting to his stomach. "I feel, weird." He said. A few hushed laughs broke out. He looked around, eyes going wide. "Ahh!" He let out a small cry, leaping to his feet and bolting for back doors. Elliot hurled open the sliding doors as a few took steps to follow. He reached the railing guarding the porch and clutched at it, his chest heaving as he let out a low moan. Everyone was transfixed. A second later, Elliot vomited.

"Booo!" Dean jeered as the rest of Beta Psi joined in, mocking Elliot's weak stomach. "Is-is he changing or?" Javier asked, looking panicked. "No, he's just a pussy." Kai said, "Happens. You drink and your body just wants no more stuff. Let along a X-Change. But, he had bigger balls then you lot. So I guess he can keep em." Joseph nodded, agreeing. "He stepped up. Now, who's next?" No one was jumping at the idea, most eyes still on Elliot as he threw up another part of his nights drinking, spluttering and groaning as he did. "Don't all go at once, Jesus." Dean pointed to Javier. "You next. Come on." Javier looked around, sweat building at his brow. No one was coming to the rescue though and he could only lean forward and take a pill. Silence fell again as Javier placed the pill onto his tongue and swallowed. He paused, focusing on not spitting it out. Then looked around. "I don't feel anything." He stated, relief clear. "Takes up to sixty seconds for effects to begin." Joseph grinned a wicked grin. "Don't get to comfy. How's your skin feeling?" Javier stood, panic beginning to spread across his features. "Itchy! Is that bad?" A few brothers whooped and cheered.

"First one!"

"Here we go!"

"Good luck, senorita!"

The calls only stoked the fear in the boy's face as he looked to the other pledges, pleading. Casey gazed back, horror spreading as it became clear Javier hadn't gotten a sugar pill. He ran then, stumbling and heading for outside just as Elliot had. Javier attempted to make himself throw up, reaching back and coughing. But it didn't work. He glanced back before moving forward off the back porch and into the night. A cry of pain came out and Joseph inclined his head, Kai and another going out after Javier. A minute later they were back, supporting a figure who was not the one who had just run out into the darkness. Gone was the tall, chubby figure of Javier. His once short black hair had grown out and now had a glossy shine to its perfectly cut locks. His stature had left him, being barely 5'2 now. The clothes he'd been wearing hung ludicrously off his, or her tiny frame now. Looking around, Javier groaned. Wolf whistles followed as she was placed onto the sofa to regain her composure. The stubble, the hard line of his jaw, the thick eyebrows. All had melted away. Javier's face was now, well, beautiful. A small nose on a feminine and defined face. Long lashes, smooth, soft looking skin. Even wearing her old clothes, Javier looked good. Like a girlfriend trying on her line-backer boyfriends stuff to be cute. The pledges gazed in a mixture of horror and fascination. "Looking good, baby." Called Joseph, nodding his approval. "We've got some clothes upstairs that will...better suit all of you who change. But lets see who else is so lucky!" Javier blinked, looking shell-shocked in his new skin. Casey had began to crawl backwards a bit.

"You next, Blonde." Dean spoke behind Casey, poking a finger into his back, leering down at him.

'Oh fuck.' Casey thought.
