Zack furrowed his brow. A bead of sweat passed over his cheek. He had to think of something to get out of this, or else he'd-
That was it! "I've got a couple more statements before you change me."
The elderly man was clearly growing bored of this conversation, as evidenced by his aloof glance put vaguely toward Zack's direction. "Oh? Do tell."
"Even if I'm remade a woman, first thing I'm doing when I get back with Daisy is breaking up with her crazy ass. She'll not be 'experiencing motherhood with me,' as you put it."
He chuckled. "That was one of her desires when the deal was made, yes, but the contract is not undone if the fickle nature of love moves the two of you onto separate paths. In fact, most contracts of this sort end with the couple going their separate ways."
Zack glared in response. "What happens to my life once I change? All my documents expect a male Zack. My family, friends, and job only know a male Zack. The prospect of getting zeroed out of existence and turned into a single mother against my will makes suicide look pretty desirable."
The WizZARD turned to give his full attention to Zack. "Spellcasters have been subverting memories and documentation for centuries. The Fates do not care much for something as simple as a change in gender. My spell will make it so outwardly everyone remembers you as having always been female. Now, if you were to ask for nonhuman alterations, you would need to explain those for yourself." He paused. "As to ending your own life, I strongly recommend that you do not. I can make it so you literally could not comprehend the concept of ending one's own life, but thought modification can have lasting and unexpected consequences."
Zack recoiled at the thought of this magician messing with his brain, a mixture of revulsion and anger toward the man that was about to steal away his manhood. He had one last card. "I see. So far, I don't feel you're leaving a positive impression on me. I feel that, if I were to have this kid, I'd take my frustrations out on it. Or, more honestly, I'd probably get it abort-"
"Silence." The WizZARD flicked his wrist as he spoke that single word nonchalantly, and Zack found himself truly unable to speak. "You'll invoke the wrath of one of the greatest mages alive if you do such things to his progeny. I tire of your attempts to slip out of the contract. Begin discussing what female body you wish to have, or I shall make the decision for you."
Zack decided his next action was to...
