“I know I didn’t just throw them randomly!”
Luke frantically searching for his clothes. He may have accidentally dropped his phone while he was trying to get a picture of himself in a mawashi, in his defense he didn’t expect THIS to happen!
“Come on! Where are you- Aha! There you are!” He found his clothes laying on Dave’s bed… Now, comes the tricky question: ‘How am I gonna get in my clothes now?’ He thought to himself…
Luke went, and asked Dave where he can change. He pointed, and told Luke to go behind the paper divider with the Cherry Blossoms on it.
A “Shōji” is what he called it.
And Dave gave Luke the Medallion, and made his way…
—————-———
Luke walked behind the dividers and began to wear the Medallion, and started to remove the mawashi. That was not an easy thing to get off, but he still done it. Next he grab his underwear, these medium size tighty whities, are gonna be a pain to get on…
He can already imagine himself… Struggling to try and get his beefy sumo thighs to fit into his underwear.
But out of shear convenience… His underwear started expanding beyond it’s limit, as if it changed to fit his current form. Did the Medallion have anything to do with this? “Well that’s nice!” Luke said to himself “Now my clothes won’t rip while I try to get them on!”
And so he began to put on the rest of his clothes… his pants, and his shirt. He wondered if that’s enough… “Okay Medallion! Do your magic!”
At first nothing happened… Worrying that this, extra information, was something he should have listened! ‘Oh No! Don’t tell me it’s not gonna-‘
His thoughts were interrupted as his body fat started receding farther, and farther… All that fat rolls he’d gotten from that mawashi is vanishing, along with it those muscles that have came with it…
He is also getting his youth back! At first he became a 36 or something year old sumo, but now he’s becoming his Young-Adult self again!
“Yes! Yes it’s working!” Luke says excitedly and speaking of… He starts talking less like a Japanese, and more like an American.
His hair changed from black to Brown, the Sumo Bun is undone, and shorten. His skin went from pale white to having a little tan. And his features are changing from a Chubby sumos, to an average American student. And don’t even get him started on his package down there!
But more importantly… Luke is back to being his American self again!
“Goodbye Sumo, and Hello Me!”
—————-———
Luke came back from the Shōji, and Dave was glaring at him. Luke doesn’t understand why “What? It worked!”
Dave shook his head “That was reckless! Not to mention stupid! Didn’t you think to ask me what this Medallion was before you done it?”
Luke can’t help but frown. He did have a point, he thought it’d be fun to just wear something Japanese, while wearing the Medallion he found. He never understood a lick of Japanese, and he assumed it was just some generic trinket thrown to the ground…
Granted, even if they did know what they had, would they ever believed it? Somebody had to be the Guinea pig. And Luke was stupid enough to volunteer…
“You’re right, I’m sorry for not showing this to you sooner…“ Luke said, then added “But to be fair, somebody had to be the Guinea pig!”
And Dave started smiling “And your stupid ass is the perfect Guinea pig to be given a Fatass of his very own!”
“Hey! While I was a sumo, I noticed his body isn’t all fat! Sumo wrestlers had to carry their bodies somehow!” Luke said defensively. Why did he care? He wanted to get out of that body, dose he miss it already?
“I know! I was just joking, my father made very point to tell me that sumos aren’t all that fat. Trying to get me to be interested in their sumo family legacy.” Dave said
“Is your dad an active sumo?” Luke asked
“No, but my Uncle is… But he resides in Japan, he hadn’t made Ozeki rank yet… And I hardly talked to him anymore…” Dave answered
Luke realized they’re forgetting something… The Medallion!
Luke widen his eyes “Oh the Medallion! You wanted to read the rest of it!… What did it say?”
Luke gave the Medallion to Dave so he can read it…
“Well?” Luke asked
Dave started reading “I was right it was some sort of warning, it said: ‘But be warned! The medallion is known for disappearing-… If not constantly under watch,-… Which could leave someone-… In a form in which they do not want.’”
“Phew! Good thing we didn’t leave it unattended! Otherwise I’m screwed!” Luke was relived, but Dave looked up at him saying “But that’s not all!”
“WHAT!”
“Remember, those who wear their first clothes that transform them, will share that same destiny as the individual whose clothes that belong to them…”
Luke looks at Dave weirdly “What dose that even mean?… “
“I don’t know! I wish you’d just-…” Dave took a breath, and continued “… It could mean you will have the same future as my ancestor, if not similar to it… You will have a reveal that you’d defeat… Or you will become a sumo wrestler in the future!”
Luke just shakes his head “No way Dave! This will be the LAST TIME I will be wearing one of those sumo diapers!”
“Hey! You asked what it could mean!” Dave said defensively “And don’t call it a diaper here! My family would murder you for that disrespectful comment!”
—————-———
But the question remains… What dose it ACTUALLY mean?
Could it simply be what Dave assumes it would be… Or could it mean something else… Something more gradual…
What is Luke’s Destiny?…
