James subtly scrutinised Becky's flawlessly lithe naked body for a few moments. He had to admit to himself there could be much pleasure to be had in being able to manipulate it however he wanted, to turn the beautiful young woman into anything he wished. But he also knew how wrong that felt - he had no right to transform someone just because a creepy old guy was offering him the chance. And he would probably be playing into Alcuin's hands by going along with his crazy plan anyway.
At that moment he made eye contact with Becky. He wasn't sure if she had caught him checking her out or not, or if she even cared under the circumstances. The look she gave him was hard to read, it was like she wanted to say something but couldn't in front of the wizard. He thought for a moment then...
"I'll take it" Becky suddenly blurted out. James reeled in shock at this surprise betrayal, while Alcuin smiled wickedly.
"Very well" the sorcerer grinned "Becky, you now have the power to transform your friend into any non human or part human creature you wish. Have fun, I will be observing"
"I can't believe you did that!" James panicked as Alcuin left the room "I thought neither of us were going to say anything!"
"Yeah, right!" Becky reasoned "I saw the way you were looking at me just then. I had to protect myself. Anyway, it doesn't mean I'm definitely going to do anything to you"
"So you're considering it?" James asked nervously. Becky pondered this question for a few moments.
