Jeff tapped away at the keyboard selecting "Dad's Suit" from the drop down menu in the Chronivac application and making his choices:
He hit the submit button and ran to the mirror to look at himself. The first thing he noticed was loosening sensation in his shoes around his toes. Looking down Jeff watched in amazement has the ends of his sneakers pushed outwards and the white leather darkened, becoming shinier by the second.
Within a few seconds, Jeff's sneakers had completely changed into dress shoes that were about three sizes too big for him. He looked down and noticed that his jeans were also darkening as the baggy denim changed into navy pin-striped wool that he recognised as the fabric his dad's suit pants were made from. The darkening moved more quickly now and within another second his jeans had been replaced by smart Italian suit pants that barely hung on his too small waist.
Looking into the mirror, Jeff next saw that his t-shirt was changing, the faint pattern of a dress shirt collar was appearing at his neck and the outline of a tie just below it. Like a submarine rising out of the sea, the collar and tie materialised into solid forms and in an instant the sleeves of his tee shot out to the ends of his fingers where the cuffs buckled and reformed into double cuffs with smart silver cufflinks.
As he looked on, the entire shirt seemed to puff out and in a moment, an outer layer sloughed off from it and began to darken into the suit jacket that matched his trousers. In less than a minute, Jeff's jeans, sneakers ad t-shirt had transformed into smart dress suit, shirt tie and shoes which he now wore though they were far too big for his 15 year old body.
As the clothing transformation completed, Jeff felt a sudden electric charge flash through his body and knew that the physical changes were beginning. The first thing he noticed was that his arms seemed to be lengthening. His hands emerged from the ends of the suit jacket sleeves and in astonishment, he saw hairs growing from the back of them as the aged to resemble those of his 40 year old father. Looking in the mirror, he almost laughed out loud at the ridiculous sight of his over-long arms with hairy hands sticking out of the sleeves.
Next he wobbled slightly as his legs lengthened. Where before, the suit pants had hung on his body, loose and baggy, within ten seconds, they hugged his thighs and buttocks in all the right places and the shoes began to feel more comfortable until they too fit like a glove. Jeff now realised that he looked even sillier than before, the short body of a 15 year old with long adult arms and legs.
The transformation appeared to have stopped and he began to worry he might be stuck until he felt a pressure in his head. New memories and thoughts were flooding into his mind and he now realised that he knew everything his dad did but with all his own personality and thoughts too. He smiled to himself realising that in a few minutes, he would finally have the kind of body he had been dreaming about for years along with the clothes and mind to go with it.
Looking at his reflection in the mirror again, Jeff now noticed that his hair was shrinking back into his head and greying a little at the temples. After a moment, Jeff saw that his chin and jawline were hardening and that his nose too was changing, his reflection seemed to blur slightly in the mirror as hiseyes changed and when he came back into focus, he saw his dad's face looking back at him.
As the end of the two minute transformation approached, Jeff felt a sudden pressure inside him and stared in disbelief as his loose suit jacket and shirt seemed to inflate from within, the hard athletic body of his father, hinted at beneath the cut of the expensive clothes, emerged and in a moment it was over and he was looking at his dad's reflection.
Jeff smiled.
"Cool!" The understatement of the year, was all he could say as he felt his left bicep with his right watching thrilled as the image before him mimicked his movement.
Turning back towards his desk, Jeff luxuriated in the feel of the expensive clothes and the power of this new body. He had intended the transformation to last just ten minutes but that would clearly have to change. His new mind and body were not going anywhere just yet. Jeff sat back at his desk and began to work on the Chronivac.
