James barked in shock and confusion at the creature staring back at him in the mirror? Had Kayla somehow hypnotised him into thinking he was a now a dog? If so it was very convincing - besides, he knew hypnotism wasn't that powerful. As impossible as it seemed, the only explanation was that Kayla really was a witch as she said and had transformed him into a brown Labrador.
"Well, aren't you a handsome boy" Kayla giggled as she crouched down to stroke James' back. He resisted the strong temptation to bite her - after all she really did seem to have magic powers and he needed her to restore him.
"Don't worry, I'm not planning on leaving you like that forever" Kayla spoke quietly in and reassuringly James' ear which somehow calmed him down "But I wouldn't want to risk more than one transformation spell in 24 hours, they are too draining. I'm afraid you'll have to stay like that until tomorrow."
"Ruff! Ruff!"
"Look I'm sorry, but I didn't actually think it would work." Kayla sighed "So please just make the most of the experience"
Kayla thought for a moment, then her eyes lit up "You know, there's a dog talent show with a big money prize at the circus today. With your human intelligence and my magic we'd be sure to win. 50/50 on the prize money?"
