Just then, a boy ran down the hall and bumped into Dawn, before she could make her choice.
Jennifer could hear a soft chiming noise, and realized what it meant at once. Time was up!
"Um, Dawn, sorry to say this, but you get both."
"Damnit, watch where you're going, you bastard!" Dawn was glaring at the backside of the boy. "Wait, what?"
Jennifer explained about the time limit.
"Oh for...well fine, what are you going to do to me?"
Jennifer felt a bit dizzy as she got a little bit younger. How long would this continue? This was her only chance, she had to...
"I dare you to tell me what you really think about me."
Dawn's eyes widened, but she was compelled to obey. "Well really Jen, I think you're a bitch, and while I'm sorry about what happened to you, I think you needed to be cut down to size. I've never been your friend, and what you did to Kyle was cruel."
That made Jennifer angry. Sure, ok, maybe it was true, but...how dare she!?
"Fine! Just for that, your transform is that you get my dare and curse!" A tingling sensation passed over Jennifer's body.
Before her eyes, Dawn's features softened somewhat, as she began to grow younger.
"You bitch! What did you do to me?!" Dawn lunged at Jennifer, who kicked the older girl in the shin, and ran away.
Thankfully it was between classes, so no one got in Jennifer's way as she ran out a side door. Her shoes slipped off her feet, but thankfully, she was pretty agile, and it didn't slow her down much.
She ran across the grassy field until she got to a nearby subdivision that was under construction, and leaned against the wall of a new home, panting for breath.
"Man I'm going to look silly once I'm back to my right age." She laughed, then it hit her. She'd given away her curse, but she'd never specified that she'd get older! She was stuck this way, as a girl of barely 11!
"Son of a bitch...and if Dawn catches me, she'd just curse me. I wonder how young she's going to get?"
-----
Dawn rubbed her shin as she saw Jennifer get away. Fuck! She could feel the changes coming over her body, she had to get out of here! With no one looking, she was able to leave the school grounds, and started walking home.
She kept getting younger as she went, causing her clothing to become loose and baggy on her frame, even as she became shorter and shorter. Dawn had never been a tall girl, and she was already under 5' tall and still losing years!
"Oh God, am I going to be able to get home in time?"
By the time she reached her house, she looked ridiculous. Her skirt had fallen to her ankles, and her shoes no longer fit no matter how tightly she tied them. Even her panties were loose, threatening to slide off her skinny hips. Turning the key in the lock, she stumbled into the hall.
Thank God nobody was home! She caught a glance of herself in the hall mirror and wanted to cry. She looked like a girl of nine!
She slid to the floor and sobbed. Her life was ruined; what was she going to do? And then she realized she had an out; the curse!
She climbed the stairs, swearing at how steep they were now, and went into her room. She had nothing that would fit her now, but her mom kept a lot of old clothes in the attic. Undressing, she went into her bathroom and started the shower. Twenty minutes later, the warm water had calmed her, and she got out, wrapping herself in a towel and lighting a cigarette.
Her parents didn't know about her smoking, and this was the only time she dared smoking at home, after a shower.
She coughed a lot, her young body not being used to inhaling cigarette smoke. Taking it easy, she managed to finish the cigarette, and flushed the butt down the toilet.
"Fuck...I can't even enjoy a smoke. I better not even try to drink."
She giggled thinking about how fast she'd get drunk now. Naked save for the towel, she padded to the attic stairs and climbed up them. She finally found a box of old clothes that fit her, although she felt pretty silly wearing a My Little Pony t-shirt. Examining herself in a mirror, she had to admit; she was adorable.
"Great, from here on out, all my boyfriends are going to be pedophiles."
Just then, the phone rang.
"Um..Dawn? I just got this weird text message saying you needed to talk to me? This is Kyle Perkins.."
Jennifer, it had to have been her. The bitch, first she does this to me, then she uses me to get her revenge on Kyle? Then again, it was his fault...time to play with him a little.
