"I'm just giving you what you deserve. You will become something completely different," she says with a mean smirk.
"What do you mean??!!" you shout, tapping your skin so as to brush off the magical dust.
Unfortunately, it will do no good. It is a simple reflex. Because you know the transformation is happening, whether you want to or not. Your body tingles indeed, and increasingly so. The sparkles vanish as if they had never existed. Brushing off the fairy dust allow you to also take full notice of the fact that you are a woman. A naked woman. So in a body that feels really foreign to you. And the worst is that it might get even more horrible. Being tiny and a woman is horrid enough, so who knows what this nasty creature did to you this time? Can it be even more humiliating than your present situation? What did she do to further make you even more miserable? Her wicked grin heralds nothing good, that's for certain. All the more reasons to be very worried! No, make it terrified!
"I don't know for sure, actually," says the fairy with an air of pride and more meanness.
"What? Explain yourself!" you demand as you can feel scary pressures upon your skin.
"I don't know! Really! That's the best part! The possibilities are limitless!" she exclaims with a hearty laugh, as if this was the best joke ever done in the history of the world.
You feel yourself curl into a ball. Uncontrollably, as if someone else had taken charge of your muscles. Then, you seem to melt into yourself, forming a real ball of flesh without features. Before you everything goes dark and you lose consciousness, you hear the fairy utter a semblance of explanation. Explanation that doesn't really reassure you.
"You are to become an egg. You will be eaten by a fay creature, male or female, that will then become pregnant with you. Male or female! And what's more, your future mommy and daddy will choose exactly what you look like! You'll make a new parent so, so happy! Us fay creatures sometimes have a very hard time reproducing so many will want to eat you fast! And then maybe you'll be raised correctly too! I might see you around in a few years, you never know!"
What?!!? To be reborn? Who might eat you once in that egg? And... What will you be reborn as? It's terrifying! You might stay female! And there’s another terrible thought that strikes you. You utter it out loud, with the last breath and remnants of vocal cords that you still possess.
"My... my memories?... My..."
"That depends. No one can guess about that. You might keep them, you might not."
You want to scream your horror but it's too late. You don't have any organs anymore. You then feel a hardening all over your body, spheric and shutting you tight for good. You can only hope that being eaten won't hurt too much and that whatever life you'll have, it'll be good. You don't even feel the fairy hoisting you up and taking you to an ogre trader, too happy to have such an item as you now are for sale. In his eyes, you are worth the few honey jars he pays the fairy with.
