Transformation Results and a Grimm Choice

Mark knew it wouldn’t take long for the votes to come in, which is why he was concerned by the quick change of expressions on Cassandra’s face a few seconds after the Q&A session ended. He saw annoyance, outrage, defiance, and finally resignation with a hint of disappointment. Whatever was going on probably was not going to end up being good based upon what Mark saw.

“Welcome back, everyone.” Cassandra intoned in a relatively flat voice, but she quickly got back her previous playfulness and vigor. “We have just gotten the results of the season’s first Best Girl Poll and the results of the two transformation votes for each member of the harem. Now I forgot to mention this before signing off last time. First, I will be getting two vetoes when a transformation vote occurs. Meaning this time I have two for the normal transformations and two for the Boons, as they are different votes. Second, any vote throughout the season that is within 1.5% of each other will be considered a tie.” Let us get onto the best girl poll. Each of you was given a number of points based upon the ranking you received in each vote, with the highest point totals being ranked first. You will also be awarded 400 BP per percentage of the total points you received, rounded down to the nearest fifty.”

1st Laura 1486 - 15.03% - 5900BP

2nd Merida 1416 - 14.32% - 5650BP

3rd Sam 1321 - 13.37% - 5250BP

4th Aubrey 1253 - 12.68% - 5000BP

5th Ellen 1167 - 11.80% - 4650BP

6th Allie 1164 - 11.78% - 4650BP

7th Flora 936 - 9.47% - 3700BP

8th Chloe 898 - 9.09% - 3550BP

9th Talia 243 - 2.46% - 950BP

“Now, Laura, Merida, and Sam, you three were the clear favorites, receiving mostly top rankings from voters.” Cassandra began to elaborate on the results. “With Laura actually getting the highest number of first-place votes of any contestant, allowing her to take home the gold this time. Now, Talia, you have some work to do if you want to get in the audience’s good graces, as you were ranked last by a large majority of the audience.” Cassandra remarked

“Not like I care what a bunch of creeps think of me. This entire situation sucks, and I am certainly not going to cater to what I am going to assume is the equivalent of the darkest cesspit of the internet.” Talia retorted with venom in her voice.

“Well, you might want to. Then again, some of our audience like defiant ladies. Others, of course, like to break them.” Cassandra added with menace in her voice and then continued, “We will just have to see which ones you attract, my dear.” With a sympathetic tone and smile, she turned to Allie next. “Now, Allie, you were the most controversial of the contestants, with about half your votes being for 1st or 2nd and the other half being for 8th or 9th. So don’t fret too much about being middle of the pack right now.” Allie just nodded at Cassandra’s words, not appearing to be bothered by them at all. “Alright, with that, we will get to the transformations. We will do them in the order of the rankings, in the Best Girl Poll, with Mark at the end, saving the best for last.”

“First up, Laura. You were probably the most excited by the upcoming transformations. Now, if you couldn’t get Amazonian like you wanted, would you be happy with another?”

“I mean, I guess, I would go with The Desert Heat, I like her outfits. Not that Let Me Take You Down Below would be bad. I don’t dislike Oral, but I do prefer other methods of sex.”

“Well, that’s great to hear, as The Desert Heat and Amazonian were battling neck and neck until the polls closed, with The Desert Heat ending with 45.4% of the vote. Now I had been considering using my veto to make this a tie instead, as so much of the audience wanted a muscle girl."

“Wait, that isn’t how vetoes work,” Talia protested. “Shouldn’t it be the second-place option, if you are denying the first-place one?”

“Ah, you misunderstand. I am not vetoing the transformation. I am vetoing the results of the vote and replacing it with my own.” Cassandra corrected.

“So you can just decide to give us any or all of the transformations because you feel like it!” Talia hissed in rage.

“I could…” Cassandra replied, “But I won’t. That doesn’t go over too well with the audience, and this is about making this entertaining for them and the Master. Now, as I was saying before being interrupted. I had been considering vetoing this, but it turns out that I didn’t need to, since Amazonian was able to stay in the margin of a tie with 44.0% putting it just within the 1.5% margin for a tie. So, Laura, you will be getting both. As for your Boon Laura, Youthful Vigor just narrowly beat Eromancy, with 47.0 to 45.0% of the vote.”

Laura was ecstatic to hear this. “I will say I was really disappointed that I couldn’t get all three boon. I was wondering if I could persuade you to do the veto tie the boon vote with Eromancy? Thinking about it with a youthful body, I just can imagine how much better sex is going to feel.”

Cassandra considered her request, stroking her chin, with a look of contemplation on her face. “I knew you were excited for all the transformations, but just giving you an extra boon because you asked… hmmm… might be a bit too much.”

“Well, what if I paid for it? I mean, I got BP right, could I use that to pay for your veto? If not, what if I agreed to do something for you in exchange? I am fairly amenable.” Laura offered

“Hmm… an intriguing idea. I will tell you what, I will put all previous transformations for everyone in your personal store for purchase. The thing is, as a Boon, it would normally be outside of your price range for a bit until you earn some more BP. I would be willing to give it to you now, though, if you agree to give me three favors of my choosing, though don’t worry, I will make sure they don’t push your boundaries too much.”

“Deal!” Laura said without hesitation.

That worried Mark; I don’t think she realized how open-ended that was.

“Very well, then you will be receiving four transformations. I really am glad someone likes them as much as me.” Cassandra waved her hand as she finished.

Amazonian: Laura has always been fit, but now she will have the body, endurance, and strength of an Amazon. [Fitness]

The Desert Heat: Laura always loved Jasmine, as she was one of the few princesses to use her charms. Now, Laura will need to emulate her as she will feel growing arousal when wearing anything that would conflict with Jasmine’s style. [Arabian Nights]

Youthful Vigor: Laura is concerned about her age and staying competitive. Now, her body will revert back to 27 years old, which is when most people are at peak fitness, and her body will remain that young for the rest of her natural life, and no one will find it odd. [Fitness][Boon]

Eromancy: What good sex demon doesn’t know a little bit of magic? Laura will gain a few spells and can purchase more, that are all fueled by lust and sex. [Sex Demon][Boon]

Laura could immediately feel herself growing taller as she shot up above Mark, stopping when she reached 6’ 7”. Her arms and legs thickened, and she felt incredible vigor in her body well up as her body reverted back to being 27 years old, and then it surged further as the Amazonian endurance kicked in. What she had not expected was how much her body shape changed as she went from her previous 34A-26-34 to 42DD-32-40, and she definitely felt heavier, somewhere around 220 to 240 lbs, she would guess, even if it was easier to carry the weight now. Her blonde hair also grew a bit from her ears down to her shoulders and gained a silky sheen. Next, she noticed her now tight and almost ripping sports bra and running shorts were transforming. They both became a combination of chiffon and silk, with her bra turning deep red, while her shorts extended down her legs, held up by a gold silk belt. Her running shoes turned into comfortable golden silk slippers. Her look was completed as a golden snake armband appeared on her right arm, a pair of gold earrings dangled from her ears, and a golden tiara brought up her hair so it would hang down to its original height around her ears. Finally, Laura could feel something settle inside of her right below her navel, with an understanding that was her pool of energy for her sex magic.

Mark was gobsmacked with his mouth agape. This is what a goddess must look like. I know she is an Olympic athlete, but now she looks like an actual Olympic goddess. That outfit also does wonders for her. I guess I have a thing for fit women.

“Well, it is clear Mark is pleased with what he sees, though you might want to pick up your jaw from the floor.” Cassandra teased.

Allie did not look overly pleased with her fiancé’s reaction, though she definitely found Laura attractive herself. I guess I am jealous. After all, I don’t think Mark ever looked at me like that.

“Well, I love it, and feel amazing like I could just do anything right now,” Laura said as she bounced from one foot to the other. “Wait, will my clothes that I am not wearing get updated as well?”

“No. You will have to either wear that one, your old clothes, if any of them fit, or you can purchase new ones from the BP shop. After all, you don’t have to wear that style of clothing; you will just get incredibly aroused if you aren’t. Don’t worry, though. Anyone with a clothing transformation gets a 50% discount on normal clothing that complies with the transformation.” Cassandra reassured the woman.

“Next up is Merida. You said you wanted My Name’s Sake and Fake It Until You Make it. Care to take a guess at what the audience chose for you?” Cassandra said with a playful smile, but all she got back was a furrowed brow and a shrug from Merida. “Alright, fair enough, this is the start of the show. Well, you will be pleased to know that the audience is giving you what you wanted, and a bit more. As My Name’s Sake ended up tied with Hold that Pose 45.6% to 45.3%, and Fake it Until You Make It won with 78.6% of the vote.”

My Name’s sake: Merida shares a name with a certain princess and will take on several of her characteristics, like the Scottish accent and her frizzy red hair, among other things. [Merida]

Hold that Pose: A phrase Merida has uttered many times during her yoga classes, now she will have to practice what she teaches. Merida becomes poseable by any member of the Harem, though anyone besides Mark will feel a desire to pay her back later for any inconvenience caused. [Posing]

Fake It Until You Make It: Merida has never particularly excelled at much; rather, she just stumbled into things until other people believed she was capable. Now Merida will actually gain that capability. The more other Harem members believe Merida is capable of something, the more Merida will be capable of doing that thing. [Posing] [Boon]

With that, Merida felt changes taking over her body as her hair increased in volume and changed from auburn to bright red. She felt something change with her eyes as they went from a dark chocolatey brown to a striking turquoise blue. Then her skin became far fairer than before, becoming not quite porcelain. Finally, she slimmed down a little, losing a bit of fat here and there, causing her to lose a couple of inches on her waist and hips, and she thought that her bust might be slightly bigger, but couldn’t be sure. Overall, it left her looking toned and sensual but not particularly muscular. The other women looked on with curiosity, amazement, and a touch of dread as the reality of the situation came crashing down before their eyes with Merida’s changes. “Awe richt, that felt a wee bit weird—like a tinglin' a' ower ma body,” Merida said while touching her body to examine the changes. Noticing that Cassandra brought up a full-length mirror for Merida to see her new appearance.

Checking out her reflection, she remarked, “Och, no' bad at a'. I’d say I turned oot lookin’ mair cute than sexy, but ay, I quite like it.” Merida said as she noticed her new accent and way of speaking. “This new way o’ speakin’ micht tak a wee bit o’ gettin’ used tae, though.”

Mark couldn’t help but blurt out, “Well, I really like the accent. I find it really appealing.” Mark sheepishly looked away, not knowing why he felt like he needed to reassure her about it.

“Well, glad tae hear our new Scottish lass is enjoyin’ her transformation.” Cassandra said, poorly mimicking Merida’s new accent, then continuing in her normal voice, “Anyone care to pose Merida for a bit?”

“Och, ye cannae juist play wi’ me like I’m some kinda doll, aye? An’ is there nae limit tae how lang I’ve tae stay stuck when they’ve posed me?” Merida growled.

“You’ll get used to it, I’m sure, and no, there isn’t a limit, but any member of the harem can allow you to move whatever parts have been posed again. Also, no matter how long you are posed for, you won’t suffer any harm.”

“Now onto 3rd place, Samantha.” Cassandra took a moment and a deep breath to ready herself and then continued in a more serious tone. “Now, before we continue, I need to inform everyone that I was contacted by my producer between episodes. To cut to the chase, I was just informed that my exception to Samantha’s **** against me due to her personal loss was not permitted under the rules, and she has to be punished.” Cassandra saw that both Mark and Samantha were beginning to speak and silenced both with a wave of her hand. “Now my producer ordered me to eliminate you, Samantha, but I appealed, and I won’t have to, as while I do have to punish you, I have significant latitude on how. You will have to make a choice between two options. The first choice is a punishment transformation designed by my producer. For the show, it isn’t the most severe I have heard of, but I think it will be particularly brutal for you personally, Sam. I can give you a hint in that it will make you fondly remember your… time, in ROTC.” Samantha’s face drained of color hearing this. Cassandra looked at Samantha sympathetically and continued, “The second option won’t be something you’ll like either, but I personally think it is the better choice, and of the two, Mark would end up preferring this one, I am sure. See you also received a tie between Bring Honor to us all, Practice Makes Perfect, and Nothing Like a Woman in Uniform with 33.0%, 33.7%, and 33.3% respectively. You actually received a second tie with Sailor Knots and Goal Setter at 42.1% and 43.2%. Instead of taking the punishment transformation, you can willingly have all your transformations upgraded, and Goal Setter will have an addition that you must consult with Mark each round and set a new goal by the end of your date night as part of the punishment.”

Mark tried to speak but found that he was still being silenced by Cassandra. So he tried to catch Samantha’s eye while putting his hands together at his waist, sticking out two fingers. Trying to give what advice he could in the situation.

Samantha was concerned that Cassandra knew what happened during her training, and if that was the case, then the first choice would be unthinkable. Then again, what would upgrading do to the transformations and all three of them? Plus, she would be obligated to perfect the goal she set with Mark because of Practice Makes Perfect? But what if Cassandra didn’t really know about her past and was tricking her? It was then she noticed Mark staring at her and wiggling two fingers near his waist. So Mark thinks I should go with the second choice. I mean, how much input does Mark have really for the goal she just said to consult, so I could probably ignore his advice, if not at least push him in a direction I want. Fuck it, Cassandra seems honest enough, even if she is part of this shit show, and I know Mark is a good guy. Taking a deep breath, she sighed, “Okay, I guess I will take the second option.”

“Thank you.” Cassandra said with a sigh of relief, “I really didn’t want to give you that punishment.” With a bit of cheer back in her voice, “With that unpleasantness resolved, since you accepted the deal, you will be getting all three normal transformations upgraded and two boons, so here are your transformations with their changes.

Nothing Sexier than a Woman in Uniform: Samantha will now always be in uniform of a sort. Any clothing modeled after any Navy Uniform on earth or any sailor uniform will be all that she can wear. [Sailor] Upgraded: Now Samantha can only wear uniforms with skirts, that are dresses (though leggings or stockings are allowed), or completely skintight, and any uniform she wears will become slightly more revealing the first time she puts it on.

Practice makes perfect: Samantha has a perfectionist streak; now that compulsion will be reinforced in all things. When she feels like she didn’t get things just right, she will be compelled to try and try again until she gets it right. [Discipline] Upgrade: Samantha will now internalize anything Mark gives as constructive feedback to improve upon.

Bring Honor to Us All: To make your family proud is something everyone desires. The Harem members are now part of Samantha’s family, and she will have a desire to make them proud. [Mulan] Upgrade: As the song goes, striking a good match is how a lady brings honor to her family; let's give Sam some curves to make her more appealing to help her woo her future partner.

Goal Setter: Samantha can set a goal, and when she reaches certain milestones toward that goal, she will gain a BP reward based upon the difficulty of the goal. Once a goal is set, though, she will have to try her best to complete it. [Discipline][Boon] Punishment: Must set a goal with Mark’s input each round by the end of her date night.

Sailor Knots: Every good sailor is an expert with knots, but Samantha’s knotting will seem like magic. She will have the ability to tie any rope in seconds and can magically bind the knot to remain in place indefinitely unless she or the Master wishes it undone. If the knot is used on another person, no harm can come from the knot, no matter how long it is in place. [Sailor][Boon]

Sam’s uniform began to change, with the pants slowly morphing into a pencil skirt and stockings stopping just above her knees, and her officer’s jacket and shirt shrank, making her cleavage slightly larger looking. Which is exactly what happened as her bust expanded out to 38D and her new skirt felt far more form-fitting as her butt gained a few inches, bringing her hips to a little over 36”. She also felt herself rise up as she saw her flats were transformed into 2” black heels. Finally, she noticed that a few of her ribbons were slightly misaligned and her hat was just off center, and she immediately felt like she needed to fix them. Taking a moment to make sure she looked perfect in the mirror before turning to Cassandra to speak.

“I am not going to apologize for punching you. I was kidnapped on one of the worst days of my life, and it was a perfectly reasonable response. What I will do is thank you for going to bat for me as much as you could. As it seems like your producer is a truly awful person, and I understand that this situation isn’t at least entirely your fault. So I was hoping that the two of us could maybe start with a clean slate?” Sam asked, cautiously extending her hand to shake as a sign of truce.

Cassandra looked inquisitively at Sam for a moment and then reached out and shook her hand. “I would like that. Though I will warn and remind you and everyone else here,” Cassandra looked at the rest of the girls, saying this, “That **** won’t be tolerated, and I won’t be able to be lenient next time. So please let’s use our words from now on.” Turning to face the auditorium, she continued, “Now we will be ending here for today. Please stay tuned for a message from our sponsors and join us next time, where we will continue with the transformations.”
