James felt his body begin to harden, his joints becoming stiffer by the second. His skin began to take on metallic properties, as it began to turn into solid gold, giving off a golden sheen. His body began to round itself out, becoming more sphere-like, a white circle appearing on his chest, resembling that of a clock face, as James could feel his insides shifting, becoming filled with all sorts of gears and cogs.
"Nicola, what's happening to me?!" James tried to get out as his body now began to shrink, but all that would come out was a series of rings, like an alarm clock would make, causing James to panic even more. However, he suddenly lost all control of his body as his legs began to recede into his body, becoming no more than simple short rods of metal. His face faded away as his body now resembled that of an alarm clock, his ears moving up to form bells on top of his head.
When James was entirely done with his transformation, he was an ordinary alarm clock, lying face down on the floor. Meredith placed him face up, and tested out his alarm, grinning with glee as it worked perfectly. Laving James alone for the moment, she turned to Nicola, who had not yet began her changes.
"What have you done to my friend?" Nicola said, enraged as she stormed over to Meredith. "You'd better change him back to normal, right now, or I'll-" Nicola was cut off as the tingling feeling began to swarm all over her body, causing her to stop.
"Or you'll what?" Meredith asked, a wicked grin on her face as she took a step back to watch over Nicola. "I believe you have more pressing matters, don't you?"
Nicola could only groan as her body began to soften, her limbs hanging lifelessly at her side as her body began to slump forward. Her skin began to soften as well, beginning to feel like soft comfortable clothing, almost like the undergarments Nicola wore. Her entire body was on the floor, as she began to flatten, her body being hollowed out.
Her face and other details began to fade away as her cloth like body began to take on lacy frills, turning a beautiful shade of pink. Nicola tried to bark out one last curse at Merdith, but her voice, seemingly coming out nowhere, came out as muffled, as if buried under layers of clothing. Finally, to finish off the changes, her body reshaped itself, shrinking and reforming, two holes appearing in her, as Nicola began to realize what she was turning into.
It was too late for anything to be done, however, as a lacy pink thong now rested beside the alarm clock that was once James, still shouting out muffled curses.
