Brian ran back tot he pasture, where Mike was resting up from his sexual encounters. He looked coarse-featured, but was still recognizable and still a centaur. "Mike! I can get you out of here now!"
The centaur scowled. "Where is Brian?"
"I'm Brian! The wizard in town swapped us out so that the kid is now in my ole even body. He's going to be a spy!"
"You are Brian?" Mike snorted. "Prove it."
Brian thought minute, then brightened. "When we were in Junior High, we snuck into that circus and you asked a Gypsy fortuneteller to turn you into a horse. She laughed at you and chased us out!"
"Well, I thought she had magic." Mike flushed slightly, then shook his head. "Wow! that's a big change for you! An ugly human instead of an elf? What about the others? You OK with helping this wizard guy spy on Tye and them?"
"Master Llandros is great man!" Brian was surprised by his enthusiasm. "And Tye was a bastard who sent you out here to get turned into an animal."
Mike looked at the mares around him. "That still doesn't sound like it would be so bad."
"Well, you can stay here and fuck yourself into being a dumb beast if you want. And Tye and them are coming here. I bet he finishes you off for fun. Or you can come to Llandros' stable and maybe we can come up with something better." Brian shrugged. "You can always come back here if you want."
That took care of Mike's objections, and they followed the path back to the wizard's property. Brian rode on Mike's back, telling him how to go, and had the centaur go into a large open stall in the back. There were no other horses here - they apparently were all in the pasture. Mike looked around the large stall and then at Brian, who was pulling the gate shut behind him. "So, now what?"
