Andrea looked at the change she had left and counting it up realized that she only had enough for five turns. Looking into the machine she saw various items and lying near the back left corner was a pendant her mother had given her when she was still Andrew.
Not really sure how the pendant got in there, but wanting it back for sentimental value, hoping that it might reverse this feminine mistake, Andrea placed two quarters into the machine.
Moving the claw over and then dropping it, she nearly cried in frustration when it the claw missed.
Dropping two more quarters into the machine, she tried again and missed again. Wondering why this machine was suddenly so hard, she pulled out two more quarters and prepared for her third try.
The claw went down and instead of grabbing the pendant, it grabbed the pink pacifier next to the necklace.
Slapping the machine, trying to get it to drop the object, Andrea watched as the claw dragged it over and then dropped it into the prize bin. Bending down, she withdrew the pacifier and looked at it.
It was a pink pacifier with a white section on the front, clearly something for a baby girl. Inscribed on the inside were the words, 'Andrea, three months', and next to it was the symbol for female. Weirded out that this thing had her name on it, she set it down on the machine and tried again.
Two turns later and she still hadn't won what she wanted. Frustrated, not only at the machine, but also at the boys that were still trying there lame pick up lines, Andrea turned and headed out of the arcade.
Bothered by the fact that she might be stuck like this and the fact that she thought the boys shooting off there one-liners were cute, if only they would mature somewhat, she absentmindedly placed the pacifier in her mouth.
Walking back through the mall, sucking on the pacifier, she stopped when she came to a maternity store. Realizing what she was sucking on, Andrea choose to ignore it as she knew that nobody really cared. What she cared about was that she was suddenly so very tired. Walking into the store, she looked around.
As if doing this all from a dream, she selected a car seat for a newborn and setting it down on the floor, laid down in it and fell asleep; nobody in the store paid the slightest bit of attention as this thirteen year old girl went about her odd business.
Nor did they give any indication as the magick of the pacifier began to work and began to alter this girl and her clothes.
