Laura floored it as she and Kaitlin now sped back to the office. Laura was only 20 now while Kaitlin sat at 21. They were college kids again, Laura noticing her youthful face with clothes that seemed just a little too baggy on her lean frame. "I got to get those dice!"
Anna stared intently at the dice on the desk. It didn't seem possible, how could dice make someone younger? As she held the dice in her hand, she gazed at them intently. They were definitely glowing, an eerie light seeming to emanate from within. The question was, which was hers?
"I should have paid attention when I picked them up," she whispered. Glancing in the mirror it was hard to say if she was younger. Still, she couldn't explain away the voice or the light show that occurred after she had rolled them. "Okay," she said softly. "Lets try this one more time. This time pay attention to the numbers Anna."
Anna let the dice roll, watching as a six and a three landed.
Fifty nine years you have walked this Earth. Now this number is but fifty three. Each roll of the die shall return more if what was lost.
Anna shuddered as the lights once more floated off her body. Quickly she glanced into a handmirror, her eyes growing wide as the grey in her hair began to vanish. The qomans wrinkles smoothing as her body began to strengthen under her clothes. As the lights dissipated Anna smiled as she gazed at a face she hadn't seen in a decade.
"Look at me," she smiled. "It works. It actually works!" Anna chuckled softly, spinning around as she admired the dices handiwork. The aches and pains she had grown accustomed to had lessened, while her hair was gradually returning to its ebony color. Looking at the dice she now picked up the one that had rolled six. "Guess this is the one that changes me," she said. "Now, let's see if I can rub a few more years off."
Twenty years you have walked this Earth. Now this number is but Seventeen. Each roll of the dice returns more of what you have lost.
Laura screamed, almost losing control of her car as the lights once more floated from her body. Quickly correcting herself, she now found herself nearly hyperventilating as the number the voice said sunk in.
"Seventeen," she whispered in alarm. "Shit, shit, shit, I have to hurry!"
Laura was focused as she now tried to will the car faster. This latest bit if regression had left her a teenager, a high school student who wasn't even a legal adult. Already she could tell her body had taken quite a hit from this latest bit of regression.
Laura could feel her bra strap slip on her narrower shoulders, the cups of said bra seeming just a bit roomier than before. She calculated she had lost perhaps half a cup size, leaving her in small C, large B territory. Lauras shirt also seemed slightly baggies. Always an athlete in high school, the woman now girls body had lost most of its curve, giving her a lean look.
Even Lauras jeans seemed loose, her waist a bit baggy, the legs a bit roomier on her teenage legs. Even Lauras heels seemed a bit roomier, as if they had been stretched. While concerned for herself, she also worried for Kaitlin. Kaitlin had become a blond co ed when they had left the restaurant, since then the dice had been rolled twice. Was Kaitlin even younger than Laura now?
As the cars now pulled into the office, Laura and Kaitlin lept from their respective cars. As they caught sight of one another they both gasped. "Oh my God Laura," Kaitlin exclaimed, pointing at the high school girl.
"I know," Laura said quickly. Laura was conflicted as she gazed at the blond coed. Kaitlin hadn't experienced any regression since the two left the restaurant. While Laura was thankful she was okay, she was also a bit jealous. Kaitlin outfit still fit her reasonably well her shirt just a bit baggy on her. Although visibly younger she could at least pass as an adult, which was something the newly minted teenager didn't think she would be able to pass as for another couple of years if they didn't fix this.
Quickly the two now hurried to the front door, the high school and college age girls fumbling for their keys. "Who could have rolled the dice," Kaitlin asked.
"I don't know but we have to find them," Laura stated.
As the two now burst into the office they stumbled, quickly gaining their balance as they glanced towards Lauras office. An odd light now seemed to come from the room, only to vanish before illuminating once again. Laura, fearing her die would be rolled now grabbed Kaitlin arm as she dragged her towards the office.
As the two now stood in the doorway, they watched as the light began to fade once more. Standing before them was a woman they barely recognized. "Anna," they asked in confusion.
Anna turned, her smile turning to shock as she now noticed the much younger accountants. "Ms. Peters? Ms. Murray?"
The trio now gaped at one another. Laura and Kaitlin shocked to see the elderly janitor Anna Chen was now....
