Nicole looked at Emily.
"How come you're not?"
"I don't know. Maybe it's because I drank less beer," Emily said.
“HEEEE HAAAAW! HEEEE HAAAAW! HEEEE HAAAAW!” Nicole began to bray. She clasped her mouth before her face changed into that of a donkey. Emily gasped when she saw that Nicole's red hair was gone. A black mane similar to Evelyn's had replaced it.
Evelyn was still braying and bucking.
"No, this is crazy, this is impossible," Nicole cried. "This was supposed to be fun!"
"I don't know," Emily said. "Come on Evelyn, you can change back right? It's just a joke right?"
Evelyn managed to control her braying. She looked at Emily. The desperation on Evelyn's face betrayed her fear.
"But, how can this happen? It's impossible!" Emily cried.
Nicole touched her face and then her ears before tugging at her tail.
"Come on Evelyn, you gotta say something," Nicole said looking at Evelyn. "This can't be happening!"
Nicole scratched all over her chest and sides before fur the same color as that which now adorned Evelyn's body covered her own. Moments later, her hands quivered as they became hooves.
"No, please no," Nicole cried. "I don't want to be a donkey! I’m a girl! A GIRL!!!"
Evelyn could only bray in protest as the force changing Nicole's body finished the job.
"You gotta run Emily. Hurry, before you change too," Nicole said.
Emily noticed that Nicole's voice sounded deeper and was in fact, getting deeper.
"But please, don't leave us like this. Don’t let me be a donkey. I’m not a donkey." Nicole cried.
"I won't leave you, gals," Emily said.
Nicole's face quivered and she grimaced before she shook her head and started braying and bucking. Evelyn watched Nicole buck and bray before Evelyn's fear once again overcame her and she started braying.
Emily looked back and forth between Nicole and Evelyn. Minutes earlier, they were two beautiful girls that Emily could look up to. To see something so easily turn them into the panicked donkeys they'd become was terrifying.
"Girls, you gotta calm down or they'll hear you," Emily said. "Maybe we can run and get help."
Both looked at Emily and managed to get their braying under control. They brayed at her as though they were trying to tell her something. More brays echoed through the wind. They showed the trio that what was happening was not isolated.
Emily's ears felt warm and she felt something odd above her rear end. She looked into the mirror and saw her human ears became donkey ears as she sprouted a donkey tail!
