First Transformations (Part 2)

Sophia sat in nervous silence as Azure produced the next envelope. They were all still in the replica of Ji-Woo’s office, as it hadn’t been restored to a stage.

Azure grinned as she read the content of the envelope. “In one of the most clear-cut victories, Cliché Magnet won with 49% of the vote”

There was no large screen to display the description this time, so it instead appeared on the computer monitors of all the desks. It was too small for anyone there to see, but the audience was given a closeup.

Cliché Magnet: Fate will make Sophia into a magnet for embarrassing harem anime cliches and situations. She will also receive a larger chest (for accidental groping) and can only wear skirts (for accidental panty flashes) [Harem Anime]

Sophia didn’t need the refresher, her potential fates having been burned into her memory. “Damn it,” she said, blushing. She tried to ignore the small part of her that was excited at replicating her anime.

“Congratulations Sophia. You get to be the star of your own fan-fic. Time to put that anime knowledge to good use.”

“Can’t we…” Sophia began, but her body leaped to her feet. Her pants let out the sound of tearing fabric as they shrunk up her legs, eventually stopping at a miniskirt. Her chest swelled as her barely existing breasts expanded. Her bra thankfully expanded alongside it. Her baggy hoodie became strangely form-fitting, showcasing her new curvy body, particularly her new boobs.

The transformation had only taken a few moments, having been relatively minor, but the results totally changed the vibe she was giving, making her look far more mature.

Jezebel cheered. “Yay! The glasses lady isn’t flat-so anymore. I wanna see em. Show us your new titties!”

“So, how do you feel Ms. Moulin?”

“Not too different, honestly,” she said, looking down at her new figure. Having a modest bust size was definitely strange, and would take some getting used to, but she had half expected to gain gigantic anime boobs, so things could have been much worse.

Azure chuckled. “Well, don’t you worry. Each round gets more intense, so there will be plenty of other chances.”

Azure then laughed and playfully slapped Sophia on the back. Despite the minor impact, it somehow made Sophia stumble forward, right toward Levi. Despite them previously being at least 12 feet apart, she seemed to close that distance instantly as she fell forward.

Levi instinctively lifted his hands to shield himself as she collided with him. Moments later, they were filled with something soft and squishy. Levi, momentarily dazed, couldn’t tell what it was, and gave it a squeeze.

“What… what on earth…” he asked, his brain feeling strangely clouded as he groped the soft items in his hands again. His mind then cleared slightly and he noticed what was happening right in front of his face... In front of him was the blushing face of Sophia, and he was groping her boobs.

Levi normally would have let go immediately, but his brain slowed again, and he played with her boobs in confusion for a few more seconds before the situation clicked.

“OH MY GOD! I’m so sorry! I… I.. didn’t mean to!” Levi shrieked, letting go.

Sophia, who had been too stunned to react, let out a high-pitched shriek quite unlike her, and slapped Levi in the face. The smack made an almost cartoonish sound effect and left a perfectly shaped handprint on Levi’s face.

Sophia took a step back and pointed at him accusingly. “You disgusting pervert! How dare you!”

“I didn’t mean to!” Levi yelled.

“Don’t lie to me idiot Levi! You planned to… to…” Sophia started but then trailed off. ‘What am I doing?’ she thought. ‘Why am I reacting like this? Oh shit!’

“I’m sorry I hit you, it just came over me… it’s not your fault” she said nervously.

“It’s fine. You shouldn’t apologize” Levi replied, embarrassed.

Suddenly, Lauren spoke. “Hey, since she hit him, shouldn’t she get punished as well?”

“Sis! What are you doing?!” Kaitlyn asked in alarm.

Azure laughed. “Don’t be absurd. That was just some comedy slapstick. I mean look, he’s fine.”

He pointed to Levi’s face. The handprint from the slap had vanished. Levi realized in surprise that he didn’t even feel it anymore.

“Now then Sophia-chan” Azure began, mockingly. “Why don’t you come to sit down so we can move on to the next girl.

“Sophia nodded awkwardly and turned around. However, she didn’t manage to take more than two steps before she tripped on absolutely nothing. She let out another uncharacteristic shriek and fell into a perfect all-fours position that pointed her butt directly at Levi. To make matters worse, the fall lifted up the top of her skirt, granting the master a perfect look at her panty-clad ass.

BWAH!” Levi yelled, making an over-the-top reaction, before blood sprayed from his nose.

“AHHH! Don’t look! Perv!” Sophia shrieked, trying to get to her feet, but falling forward again for no reason, showing even more butt.

Azure and Jezebel were laughing loudly at the comedic display, while the other contestants just cringed.

After about ten seconds, Sophia felt her mind shift back to normal. She easily got to her feet, walked to her chair, and sat down, too humiliated to even speak. Likewise, Levi’s exaggerated anime reaction faded to a look of plain awkwardness, as his nosebleed vanished.

Azure broke the silence. “My, my. I have a feeling you two are going to have a hilarious relationship.”

“Just… just do the next person…” Sophia mumbled.

“Very well,” she replied... “Coming up is Peterson twin #1, Kaitlyn.”

Kaitlyn buried her face in her hands as Azure opened and read the next envelope. Her smile faded slightly. “Huh. This one's another tie. That’s odd, though I suppose less likely things have happened.”

She shrugged and announced the results. “With a difference of one vote, Kaitlyn Peterson will receive ‘I Don’t Mean to Tease’ and ‘Second Hand Sister.’”

Second-Hand Sister: During any transformation round, if Kaitlyn's VP is less than or equal to Lauren, she will gain a weakened version of whatever TF got 2nd place in Lauren's vote. [Special]

I Don’t Mean to Tease: Kaitlyn will be unable to hold a prolonged conversation without occasionally flirting. The intensity and frequency of this will increase based on how low she is in the VP ranking [The Tease]

“Oh no…” Kaitlyn groaned her face still in her hands.

Lauren shouted “This is stupid. If one of them won by a vote, then it’s a tie. It shouldn’t matter if it’s a near tie.”

Azure looked at her annoyed. “Well, tough shit. The rules of this season say anything within 1.5% is a tie. That’s just how the game is played, honey.”

She then turned back to Kaitlyn. “Since everyone is technically tied for first, her flirt compulsion is unlikely to trigger now. And we won’t know what came in second for Lauren until we get to her. So I suppose we just move on.”

Kaitlyn peeked up at the host, who had already moved her gaze to Tomoko. She couldn’t help but feel a sense of relief that it was over already.

“Tomoko was an interesting case, since all of her options were mental, or affected other people. Let’s see what you at home voted for.”

Reading the envelope's content, she told everyone the winner. “It looks like you all want to add a bit more drama to Tomoko and Levi’s relationship. With about 42% of the vote, ‘Co-Parents is our winner.

Co-Parent: Tomoko never knew who the father of her son was. This will make her believe it was Levi. She can not be convinced otherwise, no matter how much evidence (or common sense) is given to prove it is impossible. [Single Mother]

As everyone else had, Tomoko’s body leaped to its feet. “Wogh, that was weird… ha ha… hey when did we go to an office? Did I zonk out?” She asked, gaze unfocused.

Azure rolled her eyes, as her smile vanished. “Ok, that’s enough. The whole drunk contestant thing was funny for a bit, but it’s getting old.”

She snapped her fingers, and a bucket of water appeared before Alison. “Will you sober her up for me dear?”

Alison nodded and swung the bucket, pouring the contents all over Tomoko. She shrieked as the cold soaked her, leaving her dripping wet.

Tomoko rubbed the water out of her eyes, before looking around in confusion. The water had completely removed the **** from her system, allowing her to think straight for the first time since she had arrived.

“W-where am I? Wait, this is… I sorta remember… it’s a contest… a…” she said, racking her brain, trying to recall what had been going on for the past hour. For a woman who was used to only living in the now, this was especially hard. “There’s a TV show? And a kid I used to babysit, and… MY SON!”

She looked around and panicked. “Is he ok? I gotta pick 'em up.”

“Don’t worry, he’s fine” Azure said, not feeling like explaining it again. “But speaking of your son…” she said cryptically before snapping her fingers.

Tomoko’s eyes widened as she was hit by a sudden realization. Her mouth fell open and her gaze became fixed on Levi as if she had never seen him before.

“Oh my god” she whispered. “It… it was you… all along…”

She gulped nervously, trying to contain the whirlwind of emotions inside her. Finally, she said. “Listen, Lenny…”

“My name's Levi”

“Right… Right. I have to tell ya something, like, mega important. I think that…” Tomoko began but stopped when she realized everyone was looking at her.

“But… It's a private thing. I’ll tell you when we’re alone. We got a lot to talk about.”

Levi couldn’t help himself. “Look, I know what Azures make you think, but I’m not the dad.”

Tomoko's nervous expression turned to shock. “Wait? You already knew?” Her brow furrowed in rage. “And you never told me?!”

Levi immediately knew he made a mistake. “Wait, it's not…”

“How long have ya known?! Months? Years?!” she screamed.

“I’m not…”

“How long have you known? Have you just been a deadbeat while I raised our kid on my own?”

“What?! No!”

“Jesus Christ, I was gonna give ya the benefit of the doubt and thought you were just oblivious. But this?! You deadbeat!”

Azure took a biteof popcorn, having summoned it and a chair to sit, as she eagerly watched the show.

“Look, I… I haven’t seen you since I was a kid” Levi said desperately.

“Oh, so just ‘cause you’re a stranger that makes it ok to abandon us?”

“No, I mean… I couldn’t be… we never…”

“Never what?”

“You know…” he said, embarrassed. “Slept together.”

Tomoko rolled her eyes. “Well obviously! What the hell does that have anything to do with it?”

Levi looked at her confused. “I mean… that means… I can’t be the dad, right?”

Tomoko raised an eyebrow. “You're not making any sense dude. What does me not fucking you have to do with it?”

“How… but… that doesn’t even make sense.” Levi stammered, not sure how he could possibly explain this even clearer.

Elena chimed in to be helpful. “Well, if never had sex, how can he be the dad?” she asked Tomoko.

She threw up her arms in exasperation. “I don’t know! I’m not a scientist or whatever. He just… is ok?!

Luren smirked. “Maybe he beat off at a sperm bank” she said, enjoying the sight of this escalating.

Tomoko looked at her angrily. “The fuck? I never used one of those things.”

“THEN I CAN’T BE THE DAD!” Levi screamed. He felt like the whole world was going crazy.

“LIAR!” Tomoko yelled back.

Azure passed the popcorn to Alison, who took a single kernel without looking.

“Levi, just give it up,” Sophia said. “You read what the curse said. You can’t convince her otherwise

“Of course, he can’t convince me. Because it's true!” Tomoko countered. “If he’s going to be a terrible dad, he could at least admit it.”

“Look I’m sorry I wasn’t there for you,” Levi said, trying to do something to end this insane conversation, no matter how untrue it was

Unfortunately for him, his apology didn’t help. “Oh thanks, bro. You’re sorry. That totally makes up for all the years of busting my ass and depriving Sota of his father,” She replied sarcastically.

“Sota’s a nice name,” Kaitlyn said sincerely.

“Can we… can we just talk about this later? Please,” Levi said, practically begging.

Tomoko looked like she was going to lay into him again, but then she noticed, once again, all the people staring at her. She felt like this should remain a private matter, and hated thinking that one of the most important revelations of her life was being seen as entertainment for everyone here.

“Fine. We’ll talk… alone!” She fumed and fell back into her chair in frustration. Levi looked up to see her giving him a stink eye.

Meanwhile, Lauren leaned over to her and whispered “You know I heard him bragging about it in class. That he and I quote, ‘dumped his kid on some Asian bitch.’ Can you believe that?”

“Do I know you?” Tomoko replied, annoyed. She could sense right away the bitchy vibes of this blonde girl and didn’t believe her for a second.

Speaking of Lauren, Azure looked at her as he got to her feet. “And now, it's time to move away from that piece of family drama, and on to our final contestant.”
