I chose Gabe. He sat towards the back of the audience. Gabe was your typical nerd. Skinny, short, and really onto sci-fi, fantasy, and anime. To complete the cliché, he was incredibly smart. The one deviation was his short dirty blonde hair instead of the usual frizzy dark brown. He wasn't the typical person Brad hung out with, neither was he the type most people here knew.
This of course brought up the question, how did he get invited? As embarrassing as this is to admit, we met Gabe because he had to tutor us. I say embarrassing because while we were older than Gabe and were supposed to be a year ahead of him in school, he had skipped a grade and we needed his help to keep up.
However, it did lead to an unlikely friendship with him. Unfortunately, Brad had an image to maintain and didn't hang out with Gabe much in public. Most people thought his invite was out of obligation.
Now he stood on stage with me. Gabe was dressed in a cheap wizard costumes, complete with purple robes, a fake beard, and a hat with stars on it.
"Now Gabe, I have to be honest with you. Your costume isn't as impressive as my last two volunteers." There was laughter from the audience. "What do you say, should we give him a better one?" This time the audience gave a thunderous cheer.
I quickly conjured a hoop with a curtain and placed it center stage and had Gabe stand in the middle of it. "First things first, loose the hat and the beard."
"But it ties the costume together. " Gabe argued.
"Gabe buddy, that costume is held together by desperation. You'll be leaving here with a much better one, trust me."
Gabe reluctantly gave me his props, and I walked over to wear I had placed Jessica's Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader outfit. I picked it up and checked to see if all parts were accounted for. They were including, Jessica's bra and thong she had left behind. Approaching Gabe from behind, I told him, "Close your eyes."
Gabe obeyed and I placed the wadded up outfit in his hands. I quickly stepped outside of the hoop and lifted it up to about neck height. The curtain hid Gabe's body, and I gave the hoop a good shake for dramatic effect.
Finally, I dropped the hoop revealing Gabe's new outfit. He wore the Dallas cowboy's cheerleader outfit, and now filled it out better than Jessica had. Gabe's new body was a bit more impressive in terms of boobs and butt, which made the outfit a bit tighter in those areas. Otherwise, it might as well have been Jessica's body from the neck down. The skimpy, tight clothing made it clear, Gabe was no longer a boy.
The neck up however was still nerdy Gabe. In her now immaculate manicured hands was her former wizard robes. Seeing Gabe's head on that body caused everyone to laugh.
Gabe peaked one of his eyes and looked down. "What happened to me?" She cried.
"An upgrade. Unfortunately, I feel your face doesn't fit the new look." I picked up a chair and placed it down. "Have a seat, I'll be right back."
Going off stage, I again conjured the props I needed before heading back. While doing this, I heard some wolf whistles and a few crude comments. Once I had returned, I found Gabe squirming in her seat, unsure how to cross her arms with her now larger chest.
Once again, I approached from behind. "Now to fix your face, I've brought a mask." Again people laughed.
Gabe just gave a quick, "Hey!" Before I placed the mask on her. The mask in question was a simple red box.
"How's that? Comfortable? "
"No." Her muffled voice responded. Her arms finally found a position under her breasts. Had she seen how she framed them for the audience she may had made a different decision but I could see how that might be more comfortable in this situation.
"Hmmm." I pretended to consider the problem. "Perhaps it's a matter of balance."
"I seriously doubt it." Gabe said.
"Well we can't know until we try, isn't that what the scientific method is about?" Before he responded, I reached for the other prop I had brought, a pot full of daggers. "Tell me if this pinches."
"If what p-" Gabe's question was cut off as a slid a dagger into the side on the box. Her body suddenly went limp as her arms dangled at her side and her hid listed towards the side I put the dagger in. There were a couple of gasps of shock from the audience. I didn't expect that when I vanished her head, but I guess I should have been more careful with my wish. I made a mental note of that for the future and pressed on with the show.
"Perhaps too much weight in in one side." I proceeded to stab the other side to balance out the box. I continued this for a bit, making it a comedy routine of me trying to balance it out.
Finally I placed the last dagger down the center from the top, and pulled off the front to show an empty box. The audience which had been silent while I went on now clapped for me. I replaced the front and quickly took out the daggers.
"So that was probably a mistake." I said. "Let's see if we can try a different mask." As I removed the box, the audience once again applauded, some even giving me a standing ovation as Gabe's head was revealed.
While the face was somewhat similar to Gabe in some ways, she now had an obvious feminine face. I made sure she was incredibly cute, with her dirty blonde hair framing her face in a Bob haircut. Her face had an attractive sweet innocence about it, which was contrasted by the sexy body she had.
Gabe seemed unsure about why they were applauding. "You know what Gabe, nevermind. I wouldn't dream of hiding those cute dimples you have."
Gabe started to blush as a look of realization dawned on her face. She must have put the peices together and figured out what I had done. She was always smart like that.
I overheard a few comments from the crowd and decided to remind them of a few things. "You know, I wouldn't mind performing again at your birthday. When is that again?"
"I turn 18 this summer." She said, with a new high pitch voice thay surprised her.
"This summer guys. Remember that." A few of the more enthusiastic guys sat down glum that they wouldn't be able to talk her into anything this night. Not without charges at lleast.
"Until then, I say we should give Gabby and round of applause for volunteering. Please enjoy the rest of the show." I pointed at Jessica's former seat next to Brad. "You can see better from there."
Gabby took my suggestion and sat next to Brad who seemed a lot more willing to be seen in public with her all of a sudden.
"Alright, who's next?"
