Greg woke sometimes during the night, and smelled pee-pee. It only took a quick feel of his side of the bed to know he'd wet himself. It had been a problem until he was about 12, and he really didn't like the idea of another 7 years of damp and smelly mattresses.
Sliding down from the bed, he padded quietly into the other room to look at the computer. Anna had left it on, and the software was up. He climbed up on the chair and knelt on the seat. A bit of exploration with the mouse revealed so many choices! Age was just the start. They could do anything they wanted - be animals, change sex, even change the world around them!
The screen showed a figure labeled as Anna in the bedroom. He was shown here in front of the computer. Clicking on his own name brought up a new window that showed a detailed picture of him as he looked right now - naked and 5 years old.
Even more options showed up now. He could alter himself pretty much any way that could be imagined - race, coloring, size, make himself part animal, change his education and background.
"Cool!" He started experimenting, figuring that as long as he didn't accept or save any of the changes, he'd be safe. The first thing he changed was his age - the image on the screen stretched out to a lanky 16 year-old. More muscles came next, then a couple of inches more height. His ethnic makeup was listed as 'Mixed,' with EuroCaucasian, AngloCaucasian, and AmerIndian shown below. Clicking on the different listings brought up specific detail. Clicking Cherokee under AmerIndian changed his image to a pure-blooded Cherokee - the dark-skinned youth bore little resemblance to him. Clicking on Scot was just as dramatic - black hair turned copper red and his eyes became a bright blue, with freckles all over his face and body.
This was incredible! He grinned at the red-haired boy's image, then on impulse, clicked 'Accept.' It was strange feeling himself get larger, and he scrambled up and ran over to the mirror when it was done. He looked exactly like the image! No one would recognize him like this, but he could always change himself back. As best he could tell, nothing was permanent unless he hit Save.
It was easier using the computer now - he grinned, feeling a bit reckless. Ana was asleep still, and he had plenty of time to play around. Looking over the options, he saw one that looked interesting.
