After a brief apology for her having had to work until Saturday morning and the embarassment that followed, along with an assurance of generous reimbursement for the inconvenience, it was business as usual as Christina was instructed to remove her clothes for her next transformation.
"Wait, I have a few questions first" Christina couldn't help but feel she would be less capable of asserting herself once she was naked.
"That's fine, your owner won't be here for a while but we should prepare you for your assignment first" Jenkins gestured for her to disrobe.
"Ok, so I found your website and.." Christina began as she unbuttoned her jeans and pulled them down.
"As I said, let's prepare you first. Then I will answer your questions as best I can"
Christina sighed as she complied with this request. If Jenkins thought getting her naked would weaken her resolve to quiz him she was determined to prove the old creep wrong. Once she was fully undressed her boss came and stood face to face with his nude employee. This might be Christina's last chance to speak for a while.
"Ok, so I found your website.."
Jenkins placed his hands on Christina' s shoulders and stared into her eyes. She was under his spell again and immediately fell silent.
"Patience, my dear girl" Jenkins cautioned Christina rather patronisingly "There will be time for questions after your transformation"
Before Christina had time to think how that would be possible, she felt herself shrinking towards the ground. Gazing down at her shoulders she could see not fur this time but ..feathers? Yes, that's definitely what they were. Blue and yellow feathers were sprouting all over her decreasing body. So was she becoming some kind of bird?
That seemed to be confirmed as Christina looked down at her feet in time to witness five toes fusing into three, her toenails growimg out into sharp, black talons and her feet taking on a more scaly complexion. She was now able to guess what she was becoming and how she might be able to converse with a human even in pet form this time.
It was at this point Christina found her head beginning to jut quickly backwards and forwards, almost beyond her control and to Jenkins' apparent amusement, before her mouth and nose fused and started to push themselves out into a beak. Finally her arms fused into her torso and a pair of wings nearly as large as she now was emerged impressively from behind her. The transformation was complete.
"I'm a parrot!" Christina squawked in a distorted, avian version of her usual speaking voice as she stumbled around awkwardly to examine her reflection in the mirror.
"Indeed you are" Jenkins nodded smugly as he moved back behind his desk "and with your full vocabularly still in tact. Pretty clever eh?"
"Ok, so my first question was.." if Christina had beem concerned that being naked would make herself seem less imposing for this conversation then being a screeching bird was vastly more demeaning still.
"Why not fly up to my desk" Jenkins suggested "We'll be able to hear each other better"
Christina flapped her wings and was pleasantly surprised to find herself rising up into the air, before moving with relative ease towards Jenkins desk where she perched herself on a pile of books so she was at eye level with her now giant boss. It was time to get some answers.
