"Berk, berk... berk? Ahem!" Dan said as his mother restored his mind... he rapidly went from terrified trapped chicken to 16 year old boy who just had one hell of a day with his sister.
As his senses came back to him he realized his clothes all ripped and were destroyed and he was standing naked before his mother. "Gahh! Mom!" Dan crouched down covering himself.
"It's all right Daniel, I've found you and you're safe now. Tell me what happened... Uncomfortable naked and that won't do, reclothe my son as a man would do."
Her wand spat out a bright light and Dan was suddenly wearing a nice outfit of white shoes, blue jeans, a leather belt, flannel long-sleeved shirt, and plain white undershirt.
"Rhyming "do" with "do" is something I thought you couldn't... uh... do." was the first thing that came out of Dan's mouth.
"Its more about intent than words which is how details like your wallet reappeared and... its just kind of a focusing tool. Watch... Bam Boom Ickity Zoom." She aimed at a random wooden beam in the barn and it began to glow like a night light. "See, words don't matter as much as intent but good words do help for complex things."
"Mom, KAT!" Dan said suddenly recalling all he had went through this afternoon.
"Yes, Tell me everything." she replied calmly.
"I was aged then turned into a female cow and repeatedly fucked, err mated with. By another person who was turned into a horny bull. Then I was locked into my body forced to act like I was a chicken and placed into this barn! I need protection!"
"Kat is just letting out some built up frustration at the things in her life she previously had no control of... I don't condone her actions but it's really quite common to target siblings and parents within the first few days of a witch finding out they have powers." Mom explained.
"So you're going to let her get away with it?" Dan asked horrified.
"Of course not; but punishment can wait until tomorrow. Otherwise your father will begin asking questions like what she did that was so awful to get her party canceled within the hour its starting." Mom replied.
"But what about me? I can't go to her party, I don't trust her! She's going to hex me or something!" Dan cried, nearly in a panic.
"Well, I agree we need to do something for you to keep you safe till she can handle magic a tad bit more responsibly. Lets see... 'Spells of spite from your sister dearest will target instead her possession nearest, and spell locked such that she can't undo without permission from me or you.' That should do!" Mom smirked as she tapped Dan's face with the wand and another flash exploded...
"When she's casting on you and her intent is to hurt you, this should make it instead target something of hers, and she won't be able to effect that item magically until you or I give her permission..." She recast the spell on herself with minor tweaks to refer to her daughter and rewording the permission piece, then she made another version to protect her husband and a small ball of light shot toward the house and disappeared.
"Okay, so should I go back to the party now? I'm still afraid she'll try things that wouldn't target me directly. Like quicksand." Dan questioned.
"No, that would probably just be provoking her more... It'll probably be best to get you out of the house tonight... " She gave a conflicted glance over Dan... "Well, this might work..." and conjured a full length mirror before them.
Dan looked at it, "Dad! You're IN the... Oh my god! Is that me? What sick game is Kat playing at?" Dan rubbed his face which now had the beginnings of a salt and pepper beard coming in and touched his graying hair in disbelief.
"No honey, just like Kat was curious what you'd look like a little older, seeing you immediately reminded me of your father at that age and I became curious what you'd look like at his current age. Welcome to your 40s." Mom explained. "But I was thinking, Maybe you could go out as an adult and entertain yourself until everyone is asleep say 2 or 3 am? That would give you a chance to blow off some steam from all of this and keep you and Kat away from each other tonight. Either that or I can try to set up a sleepover with one of your friends."
"I'd prefer option 1, but could I not go out looking like dad? What did I look like at 25, I didn't get to see it." Dan said with an intrigued smile.
Mom chuckled, "I suppose going out as a look-a-like of your father could cause more problems." and a quick incantation later Dan's gray had all disappeared and his body was back to the prime version of itself.
"Mom! Kat stole all my hard earned muscle mass! I have an average build instead of muscular!" Dan shot his mom a sheepish grin.
"Uh Huh!" she said rolling her eyes.
Dan feigned a gasp, "And she wiped your memories of me being an athletic star! She's an evil MASTERMIND!"
"Okay Drama King, you win a makeover before I send you out..." She smirked. "Focus on the changes you want."
Dan closed his eyes and focused as his mom came up with an incantation. "Changes most wanted, let them be seen. Part of reality, no longer a dream."
Dan's body bulked up, his hair was freshly trimmed, his teeth whitened, a few days of stubble grew in. His outfit shifted to black tennis shoes, grey jeans, black fabric belt, a graphic t-shirt, and a leather jacket. "Nice, I love it, thanks mom! I guess I should go now."
"Don't return till Kat's party is done, be responsible and have some fun, and let the way you think and how you behave match your body's apparent age."
Dan's eyes clouded over for a second and came back presumably now mentally a 25 year old. "Okay sweetie, you best be off. Have fun. Gimme a hug."
"I'm off tonight and all tomorrow, today is my cheat day so I can drink, and I'm looking to have FUN!" Dan replied, having manufactured a fake life he leads... "I think I'll start the evening with some dinner! Maybe pasta! I plan on being out late, don't wait up for me." and Dan was walking to the car.
"Okay... One fire dealt with... Now to see if my daughter is abusing basic human rights again..." With a heavy sigh she plodded in to see how the party is going.
