"This time we'll play with the duration setting," Trish said as she pulled up the remote's time menu.
"What's that?" Samantha asked.
"The remote doesn't have to make changes instantly," Trish said. "According to these settings, I can have a transformation occur slowly over a set amount of time. I can even pause, fast forward, or rewind transformations in progress."
"So what are you going to do with--ACK!" Sam was completely unprepared to be zapped so suddenly. "Warn me before you do that!"
"Sorry. My finger slipped," Trish said innocently.
"Sure it did," Sam grumbled. She looked herself over, not feeling any different. "What's going to happen to me?"
"If I did it right, this transformation will take fifteen minutes to complete."
"And that transformation would be...?"
"Where's the fun in telling you?" Trish began walking out of the alley.
Sam would have liked to remain secluded during the change, but decided not to protest. She followed Trish onto the street.
"You should be able to figure it out in a few minutes," Trish continued. "Now, let's head back to my place before it becomes too noticeable for public."
That last sentence didn't sit well in Sam's mind as they walked down the street. She hoped whatever was in store for her wasn't too humiliating.
