"Why don't you... change yourself into Nate and take his place for a while?" Julius proposes to a surprised Christina. "I mean it's almost too perfect of an opportunity to waste, is it not? Nate is currently a mouse, his uniform and wand are right here on the floor, and then there's you, a young woman who technically isn't allowed to be in a magic school strictly for males. We have the perfect solution here! You become a perfect copy of Nate and poof, he's no longer missing and you're no longer a woman, you're now a perfectly male student of Stonewood and can freely hang out with us! Plus I'm sure you'll make a much better Nate than the troublesome original, right guys? What do you think?"
Roger didn't seem too thrilled at the idea of making Christina a guy since he was hoping to flirt with her, however Cody lit up with excitement. "That sounds awesome Julius, you're a genius! Can I cast the transformation spell? You know how much I like to practice transformation spells!" Cody said enthusiastically. "Sure, you do the honors Cody." Julius grants.
"W-Wait, don't I get a say in this?" Christina interjects as Cody was already raising his wand at her. "I mean, have you guys even considered what you're suggesting you do to me? Change my age, my race and worst of all, my sex! Make me a man! And even worse, make me be the guy who just five minutes ago was about to have his way with me? This sounds like something I might be okay with to you?"
Julius smiles gently at her trying to calm her down. "Come on, Christina, we don't want to make you actually BE Nate, just LOOK like him, you'll still be you inside there don't worry!" Julius gently taps her on the forehead.
Christina calms down a bit hearing this. "Okay, that makes me feel a bit better, but still... to change my sex... to become a man... that's a very extreme, life altering decision, isn't it? I mean, I never even thought about such a thing before, do you really think I should make such a crazy choice so lightly?" She bites her lip, a sudden perverse thought flashing through her mind. "Do you think... I could make a decent guy...?"
Julius nods slowly, still smiling. "I think you should just go with it Christina, some of the best decisions are made on a whim." He passes his fingers through her fine, brown hair, almost flirtatiously. "...And I think you WILL make a great guy, Christina."
Julius gestures to Cody to come closer. The eager young wizard raises his wand in preparation, waiting for Julius's nod to cast his spell. At the signal he casts, a hazy blue light flying out of the wand and straight into Christina, who now sat quietly on Nate's bed, eyes closed and heart pounding in anticipation and fear... She was actually about to be transformed into a black and very MALE eighteen year old. She was about to become a student of Stonewood Magic school for boys...
