Intentions can be funny things. What a person intends to do does not always line up with the results. There are many, many instances where people start out with the best intentions but the results come out horribly wrong. Often the reason for this is because of the methods being used. There are clear times where the ends don't justify the means. Rarer are the actions of someone with ill intent which actually result in the betterment of their target.
Becky was often called 'Becka' by those who know her. This would hardly be a bad thing, but unfortunately, a lot of girls at her high school call her 'Becka Doubledecka'. This was a mean-spirited reference to Becka's love of double-decker cheeseburgers and the considerable weight they gave her. Becka was a pleasant girl otherwise, though she was one of the shyer girls which made her an easy target for the popular girls to bully.
Of course, the popular girls had to be more creative with how they tormented Becka. These days, people are a lot less tolerant of fat-shaming and someone could get in pretty big trouble if they're caught insulting someone's weight. Unfortunately for Becka, her shyness made it less likely for her to speak to an adult about the way the popular girls mocked her when they could get away with it. Then one of the girls had the 'brilliant' idea for the ultimate insult. The girls pooled together their money for a 'help package' for Becka, something that would definitely help her lose weight and become attractive. But when Becka opened the envelope for her package, she saw it was a prepaid order for a double-dosed conversion into a four-armed cobra Animalian. The popular girls expected Becka to be mortified by the 'gift'. Instead, she just thanked them and left. The popular girls were rather confused by the low-key reaction.
==========
Becka wasn't naive or oblivious. She was quite aware of the intended insult. Apparently, they were the type of people who considered Animalians freaks. And it wasn't enough that they paid so that she could become a freak, they got the freakiest-looking Animalian they could afford. If Becka were like them, she would have been offended by the 'gift'. But Becka was actually more open-minded than them (not that it was a very high bar). But Becka did admire Animalians. She had often imagined herself as one, but she was never particularly sure what kind she wanted to be. But it had been a pipe dream because she never had the nerve to really ask her parents if she could convert. But this 'gift' was a perfect opportunity and she had no problem with becoming a four-armed snake.
She had a serious talk about her parents about this. Her parents have always been supportive of her and had been worried about her self-esteem issue and the health problems her weight could cause her. This seemed like an answer to both problems. Even so, they did talk with Becka for some time about what she's planning to do and how that will affect her future. They didn't live in Lyre themselves, but it wasn't that far a drive, maybe a little over an hour depending on traffic. But if Becka really wanted to go through with it, they'll make adjustments.
==========
Becka felt nervous during the trip to Horizon Labs and the setting up for her conversion. Her nervousness peaked when she was told to strip. Considering the extreme modification her body would be going through and the new shape she'll have when it's finished, it would be very impractical to be wearing clothes when she transformed. Eventually, she was able to consent with wearing a hospital gown, though felt very exposed, especially with her weight.
"You don't have to worry," said Judy as she prepped the needles, "This may feel strange at first, but you'll soon enjoy it."
"Have you done many of these before?" asked Becka.
"Well, there haven't been as many four-armed snakes yet," said Judy, "But it seems to be a growing trend. I've heard a lot of snake Animalians are wishing they had gotten four arms when they converted."
"And they can't get them now?" asked Becka.
"So far, we're still testing the limits of...extra features that can be added by a second dose. But in general, if you've already been double-dosed, that's as far as you can change. There's not a lot of progress in reversing the Animalian virus," said Judy.
"Who would want to reverse it?" asked Becka.
"Those who didn't get a choice in what kind of Animalian they became," said Judy a little sadly. But then she bucked up and said, "But most people are content with what they've become. And are you ready to have your own change?"
"Can we do it before I start getting cold feet?" asked Becka.
"You won't have to worry about them for long," joked Judy before she gave Becka both injections, "Welcome to Animalia." With that, she left the changing room.
Becka soon started feeling strange. She could feel the virus starting to spread her body, but to her, it didn't feel like it was moving through her veins. She felt it spreading through her fat cells, going to every place they were stored in her body. Before long, it felt like she was in a warm wetsuit. Then every single ounce of fat squeezed inward. Becka groaned as she felt herself compacting but then gasped as she felt herself surging out. Muscle, bones, and other tissues were expanding out as her fat was being converted into raw material. And while all of this was going on beneath her skin, her skin itself was drying out and hardening into scales.
A sudden numbness in her legs forced Becka to sit down the bed. Looking down, she saw her legs were changing shape, becoming somewhat shorter. She felt a wrenching sensation as her legs were suddenly forced higher up on her body, separating them from her hips. It was a precarious position until her spine started growing out. Her coccyx threaded its way through her changing pelvic bone before growing further, completely changing the shape of Becka's lower body.
Becka looked at her original arms, which were now covered in scales. She watched as their doughy shape melted away, though the shape emerging was thicker than she expected. Her muscles were becoming very large and visible beneath her skin. She could feel all her muscles were getting bigger, even as some of them changed for different functions. But she wasn't just becoming pure muscle. Her hips and ass may now be connected to a growing snake tail, but they were becoming very shapely. And her breasts had been large enough before because of her fat, though they weren't nearly as perky as other girls were. But now they were growing and becoming a more appealing shape. Becka moaned as she massaged her growing breasts through her hospital gown, which was starting to become tight on her body.
Becka's former legs were almost finished becoming her lower pair of arms, only her feet haven't fully developed into extra hands yet. But they had enough dexterity to grab her gown along with her upper hands. Between the four of them, Becka was easily able to tear open her ill-fitting gown. Becka let out a hissing sigh as her large breasts were allowed to bounce free. Her upper hands started massaging her tits while her lower hands probed her lower lips. As her new fingers became more defined, they started inserting into her snatch.
Becka's face was growing more serpentine as brown scales overcame it. Her nose disappeared into two slit nostrils, her pupils also becoming slits. A forked tongue slipped out through new fangs as she hissed, "Thisss...feelsss...ssso...niccce..." Her hair fell away as her head and neck started flaring out to form a hood. A small sacrifice compared to what she was getting in return. Becka was groping and fingering herself with greater vigor, her longer tail smacking against the floor as she got closer. "Yessss....yesssssss... OH FUCK, YESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!" she yelled as she came hard, milk and juice gushing as she hit her first orgasm.
Becka was still very horny, but she wanted to take a better look at her new self. Rising up on her new tail was different than she expected, but she managed it pretty well. Basic instinct told her how to slither forward so she can look in the mirror. The serpent woman in the mirror could not look more from the plump teenager she was only minutes before. She was expecting supermodel curves, which she certainly didn't lack. What she didn't expect were the bodybuilder muscles. Each of her four arms looked like they could crush coconuts with their elbows. But like with other female Animalians, her curves and muscles were in perfect balance, giving her an amazing amazonian figure. And being a snake didn't make her any less sexy. Hell, it made her feel even more sexy. Becka posed in the mirror, flexing with one pair of arms while holding up her breasts with the other pair. "Hmm...I could get usssed to thisss," she said. She teased her nipples as she got more aroused. "And I guessss there'sss no russsh to go out yet..."
==========
It was more than Becka's body that had grown with her transformation. Her confidence has skyrocketed almost as much as someone with RHS. The popular girls were very surprised when Becka returned, not meek and ashamed, but bold and proud. Not that she was back for long. Her old high school just didn't have enough accommodations for an Animalian, let alone a snake. As such, they allowed Becka to transfer WSA. They also came down hard on the girls who set up Becka to be converted. And yet despite the years of bullying, Becka actually felt some gratitude towards her former tormentors. While they intended it to be a cruel joke, their 'gift' gave Becka everything she could have ever wanted. Though considering Becka wasn't the only target of their bullying, they still wouldn't be getting off easy.
Becka had hoped that WSA would have less health restrictions than her old school. But Animalians were still vulnerable to the pandemic, even if it was starting to wind down. But it was a mild frustration, especially compared to her new job. As a double-dosed Animalian, she was considered a legal adult. As such, she was allowed to dance at the Meat Market. Though considering her busy schedule, her parents' concerns, and public health issues, she's only performing once every two weeks, at least for now. She was using 'Becka Doubledecka' as her stage name now. It had originally been an insult about her weight, but now she used it to boast about her four-armed muscular beauty with pride.
