"Hey, Teacher, so where's this nephew of yours?" a girl's voice calls out from the living room. To your shock, a tomboyish red-head who looks about your age strides into the bedroom and sees you standing in the bathroom. Your mouth hanging open, you turn to look at your Uncle Jack, who simply facepalms.
"Tori, I told you not to use the portal when I have guests," Uncle Jack grouched. "As for John...he's right in front of you." Your eyes nearly pop out of your head at how straightforward your Uncle is being with a stranger who somehow broke into his home.
"Uncle Jack, who..." you stammer in your unfamiliar new voice.
"John, this is Tori," Uncle Jack states, dropping his hand and looking at you. "She's my apprentice. My very undisciplined apprentice. Since you're here," he continues, turning to Tori, "You might as well get started on breaking the curse."
"Curse?" Tori questions, then realizes what your Uncle is holding. "No fair, you let him use the werewolf skin? You never let me touch that! Wait a minute, how did he..."
"It appears he used part of another costume to alter the skin's gender," Uncle Jack explains. "If you can remove the werewolf curse, I should be able to remove the rest of the problem." You sigh in relief. It appears there's some way to fix the mess you're in.
"Good thing we have a month," Tori ponders, sizing up the werewolf skin. Her eyes light up. "You know, it would be a lot easier to break the curse if I had some personal experience with it..."
"No!" Uncle Jack cuts her off, but Tori doesn't give up.
"C'mon, Teach, you know curse-breaking is easier if the cursed person is the one breaking it!" Tori pleads. Obviously disapproving, your Uncle Jack, finally nods reluctantly, and an eager Tori snatches the werewolf skin from his hands.
"Wait, what are you doing?" you shout, confused. All this is too much to take in, and now your Uncle is giving an obviously cursed costume to another person!
"Don't worry, I can handle it, Johnny-girl," Tori grins toothily at you. "Or maybe it's Joanna now, or Josie?" Finally realizing you are being teased, your brow furrows. "Anyway, I'll be in the same situation as you."
"But you're already a girl!" you protest, still sore at being teased.
"Well, duh," Tori looks at you like you're an idiot. "The skin is originally male." Saying so, Tori quickly slips into the wolf suit and pulls on the head.
