Todd glared, taking a menacing step forward. Still, the mermaids could see a hint of fear in his eyes. “You’re bluffing!”
“Nope!” Kat grinned. Leaning over to Danielle, she whispered, “Remember what I told you. Ready?”
Danielle hissed back, “But you only told me to concentrate and do what comes nat-”
Not letting her sister finish, Kat grabbed her shoulder and lifted her other hand to point at Todd. Concentrating on the now-familiar spell, she felt the magic in her move. Only this time, a similar movement came from Danielle’s presence.
“Oh!” Danielle gasped, her back arching in a rather appealing manner while her eyes drifted shut. It felt like heat rising off her body unlike anything she had ever experienced. So alien, and yet, so intimate, she automatically opened herself to it and let it flow through her.
Beside her, Kat also blushed deeply as these new intense sensations washed over her as well, but she maintained her focus.
Todd, meanwhile, stumbled backward. “Gah! What th- S-Stop!”
Despite his protests, his body rapidly changed. Muscles rippled and shrank, along with his skeleton, leaving him petite and hardly taller than five feet. A caving in at his waist pushed the air from his lungs even as his hips flared wide with a soft click. Suddenly, the sound of tearing fabric could be heard just when Todd dropped to the floor, his baggy shirt collar slipping down one smooth shoulder. The curtain of shimmering brown hair now sprouting from his scalp covered his face for a second before he tossed it back, giving his audience a good view of a perfectly feminine face with pouty lips, pert nose, and long-lashed eyes. Legs and feet merged together, forming scales and fins until a lovely purple fish tail sat in their place. Frantically, the former jock whipped off the ruined pants and boxers to reveal that his manhood had already disappeared.
“N-No!” He- no, she - whimpered. As if waiting for this moment of despair, her chest pushed outward into perky breasts that jiggled enticingly when she grabbed them with dainty, manicured hands. Her high-pitched shriek filled the area. Thankfully, the size of Susan’s family property kept the sound from reaching her closest neighbors.
Finally, the mermaid sisters opened their eyes to inspect their handiwork.
“Oo, she’s gorgeous!” Rachel giggled.
Kat smirked. “How do you like it, Todd? Though, I guess we can’t call you Todd anymore.”
“Tanya?” Danielle suggested.
“No, keeping the first letter would be boring,” Rachel said with a wicked gleam. “How about Bubbles?” The new mermaid winced.
“Astrid,” said Susan. “I like Astrid.”
Kat shrugged. “Well, she’s your ex-boyfriend, so why not. Welcome to the mermaid club, Astrid! Oh, and let’s not forget one more thing.” With a smirk, she held up the wand.
“Huh?” The newly dubbed Astrid blinked and glanced around her. “How’d you get it back!?”
“Magic,” Kat replied with a wink. “It’s good for turning jerks into mermaids AND moving small objects!” Waving the wand, she returned herself to human form, dressed in her swimsuit again. Then, she turned the others back, too, though Danielle remained a girl.
“It’s good to be back!” Rachel sighed. “I’m glad that’s over!”
“But it’s not over,” remarked Susan nervously. “Whoever Todd called is still on the way here. What are we going to do?”
