So there were the two parents down in the basement,trying to hide
the evidence of the transformation they felt had happened.
Up in the houses washroom their daughter Marina was softly crying since this meant she wouldn't be attending the Graduation Ball at the islands only high school anytime soon.
And there was Marina's younger brother Thomas,heading quietly
down the stairs ,intent on leaving the house before someone stopped him from doing what he was planning on doing.
Being a young man,his childhood had consisted of reading transformation comic books in the Super Monsters of of Justice
franchise so now that these weird new feelings of knowing he
actually was a "super monster" he exited the house
intent on triggering that transformation somehow.
Thomas of course envisaged his alter ego as a boyish 12 year old
anthro dragon kid 9 feet tall who could lift 1000 pound weights
easily ,had bulging muscles in his scaly arms and was soft spoken just like Thomas was.
So out into the night Thomas crept,not quite sure how to achieve
this transformation but determined to seek out the trigger.
The Full Moon was out that night and as its rays fell on Thomas's
human skin he felt a tiny series of pin pricks on the surface of his skin.He gently felt along the back of his arm and the loose hairs
he brushed off it told him he was on the right track.
However another hunch told him to go in a certain direction
towards the old ruined Devilstit Nunnery and he headed in that
direction,eager to step on its unhallowed grounds to cursed
human femininity.
He entered the ruined ancient building and there it was in plain
view
a Oak Tree growing through the pushed apart floor tiles,the Full
Moons light shining on what hung from its gnarled branches
a dead heifer calf,its throat slit and its blood dripping into a
bucket positioned below the dead animal.
As the corpse swung slowly in a phantom breeze the Full Moons
rays caught on its unseeing eyes,giving Thomas the sense
there was a fire flickering in them.
Thomas just stood there ,his breath taken away as he took in the
grisly sight and its implications
Clearly this was a powerful ritual that would trigger his
transformation into a dragon
Just as clearly the cursed feminine nature of the grounds
suggested his transformation might carry some gender altering side effects
Someone else on the island WANTED him to transform and had
provided the trigger he needed.
So Thomas slowly inched his way forward to the dead heifer
and the bucket of blood beneath her and stared at the blood
within,that lay so enticing within his grasp.
He just stood there for a few minutes ,mulling over the notion
of himself being a 'girl'
In his limited experience so far all he had to imagine being a
'girl' was his sister Marina.Who his parents doted on and let off
easily when she got in troubled whilst he,Thomas,got
the spankings and the heavy dishwashing and mouth washed
with soap when his mother caught him swearing.
When drink this blood would tip that treatment in his favour.
And so,before he could have second thoughts,Thomas lifted up the
bucket of heifers blood and tipped it to his lips and drank.
He'd thought it would have been a long process but was somewhat
pleasantly surprised and mystified when the contents of the bucket flowed easily and smoothly down his throat without any
gagging ,choking or retching.
Then it was done and the satisfied young man tossed aside the drained and dry bucket.
He just stood there for a few minutes,waiting for something to happen,which it didn't.
But then came the new hunch in his mind
"Oh bleep" Thomas exclaimed to no one in particular as he realized
there definitely not going to be a boy dragon out of this .
Swiftly he left the grounds,he didn't need any alien thoughts to tell
him his next problem was to find a safe hiding place to be when
he rearranged into HER.So back into the islands interior he went.
