-Many- people began to get strange e-mails and phone calls. And somewhere in
Frostvile, Kat got a strange look in her eyes, and spoke what the messages were saying
"Transform or Dare?"
Those who had been human, weren't a minute later.
Elsewhere on TV, "My Fellow Americans, Transform or Dare?"
+++++
Kurse got up, her body shaking, "You seem to be under a misimpression, the witches and
their familiar aren't super heroes inside a giant robot that is me. They literally CEASED TO
EXIST and I was born as their successor! And I promised that I'd make victory so horrid
you'd lament for defeat and I shall see to it! GET UP!" Kurse held her head with a headache,
"OW! Dammit. Not that." And when the commanding lunatic curses, that things aren't
going to THEIR plan, when they're using a losing strategy... their usually means only
trouble for the good guys.
And just like that, all the wolves' hard work, all their injuries and sacrifices, were all in
vain, as with that snarl from Kurse in the Curse World, the twin gems were back on their
feet. the police cuffs aged a thousand years in a second and fell apart.
Instead of attacking at once however. Then the twins all began to giggle.
"You're no fun! We need to teach you some manners!" Said one Opal.
Nicole and nearly all the others wolves gasped, they SPOKE?
"We're gonna beat you like we're super heroes!" Said the second.
"Which one?" Asked the first Opal who spoke.
"I was thinking the Flash." Said the second.
"I prefer Batman. He doesn't need super powers." Said the first.
"Well the Flash keeps finding cool ways to use his one power of running really fast, so
that's kinda cool too right?" Asked the second.
"They're so cute!" Declared one Cobalt.
"Blk! Boys are icky!" Said the other one crossing her arms.
That was when it hit the wolves for real. These twins, really weren't like Fran and Darla,
they had not just separate but unique egos. This left Betty suddenly worried if her nephew
could be restored to normal (even by wolf standards).
But a second ago they had been attacking with all the ability of the worst and most
incompetent kamakazi pilots in history!
Laughing, one of Amber leapt onto Grace and crawled until she was between her and Hope
and said, "Transform or Dare! Turn to cheese!"
Instantly the shock wave to knock away anyone and negate any use of the game via Amy's
blessings shot away the Amber twin, but she instead went "WHEEEE!" And rammed her
head directly into Hope's gut, damaging secondary organs and cracking bones. The other
Amber realized what her twin was going and leapt onto Grace's head and onto her back
saying, "Transform or Dare! Become a house!" And was launched by the repelling right into
Isebelle like a canon ball!
Kurse swore and slurred at the three invaders in her universe, for not only removing
Amethyst from her universe, but for making accidently the gem wolves now relatively sane
ignoring how it was quickly turning the tide.
The gem wolves laughing like they were kid at the play ground grabbed hold of the wolves
made increasing absurd transform and dares from 'stand on one leg' to 'be a jellybean
monster!' Amy's rune caused them and the curse to be negated and send them rocketing
into the nearest flesh and blood wolf.
Chaos is sadly -not- evil, it can't be good or evil by it's very nature, chaos was as just as
likely to do good as evil. The only truly evil thing on the island was Kurse, still driven by
the witch's petty and selfish revenge for Glendale rejecting their vision of a magically
enforced anarchist society and the whole put to death for driving women, men and
children stark raving mad (ie, liberating them from reason and logic).
And Grace and Isabelle had been VERY SURE they had been next to Amethyst a second
ago, who was wondering what the heck was going on, only remembering a very very very
wild party she had been attending up until a second ago.
But since chaos in of itself wasn't evil, this meant of course the gem wolves themselves
were just chaotic, not wicked. And Amy's kanji had been engraved only to protect from evil
in of itself.
The two Quartz leapt at Betty, one tackled her legs, the other grabbed her chest. their
increased weight from being rock rather than flesh and blood set her off balance enough
that she fell backwards. Then... they began to TICKLE her. Betty squirmed, then sniggered,
then giggled, then burst out laughing, twisting her upper body this way, and twisting her
lower body that way.. and in the blink of an eye, her body along with her split in two.
The two new twins who were made of the same material as the two Quartz got up and
looked at the two gem pups.
"Hi. I'm Tebby!"
"My name is Bethy."
"Nice to meet you." Said one of he Quartz. "Can you help us? We're kinda in a bind."
"What bind?" Asked Tebby tilting her head.
"Those them der adults wanna make our home BORING! While right now it's cool."
The twins who had been created from Betty looked around, the island was a twisted
warped mess of total discord. "Wha! It's super cool!" Declared Tebby.
"It is quite pretty." Said Bethy reservedly.
"So you'll help us?" Asked the second Quartz.
"Yes."
"YEP!"
"Cool!"
"Right on!"
The two new gem twins instantly began to attack their fellows.
The twins of Coral and Tourmaline swarmed Maxine from two sides, and began to tickle
her as she toppled, she laughed till the volume reached the heavens... then she broke in
two.
Looking up at the other pink gem wolves down at them, the crytaline pink wolf said, "Hi.
I'm Xing."
"I'm Ming."
"Your names rhythm." Observed one of the Coral twins.
"Fun isn't it?" Asked Xing.
"Yep!" Nodded one of the Tourmalines.
"Help up?" Asked Ming.
"Sure!" Answered the other Coral who helped up Xing and Ming.
"This place...it is awesome!" Said Xing looking at the entire island in the sick twisted mess
it was.
"It's sooo pretty~..." Said Ming in awe of the chaotic islandscape.
"Can you help us keep those adults from ruining our home? They want to make it
predictable." Said the second Coral twin.
"YEP BET!"
"To da bitter end!"
And the twins born of Maxine joined the fight next. And the wolves suddenly found their
best defense turned against them and being flanked as well as out numbered.
Glass got up, and brushed herself up, cursing that the army of twins was doing a better
job than she and her chimera friends had! She was indestructable, but turned out not to
have the inhumane strength she should have, "Mother's transformations are so sloppy."
Glass thought.
+++
On the other side of the island, the female minotaurs swarmed Gary and Brian and Gabriel,
trying to rape them, while the male minotaurs tried to do the same with Felicity who
managed to castrate one as it tried to pin her down.
Bernie actually let out a scream as she realized the pigs around her after several hungry
bites were trying to eat her alive!
MJ and Wanda came at the horse centaurs from behind, however, the monsters seemed to
know where they were in a 360 radius and their entire upper torso twisted around and
began to claw and bite at them. Then they took to the AIR and DROPPED them back onto
the sand with a heavy grunt.
The bears almost drew and quartered Bobbi pulling her in four directions, but the
lionesses Sasha and Megan did a pair of duel jump kicks disoriented the beasts enough
that Bobbi was able to free herself and actually drove her claws into one of their guts.
Gary tried to maintain order, but the beasts were coming to full and complete melee.
Jensen meanwhile, his eyes caught something he couldn't believe, there was no logical way
he could have seen it, but on this island, that was the point.
"KAYLEE!" The monsters actually seemed to PART WAY for him, closing up behind him as
he went, he didn't notice. He didn't even notice Amethyst as she tried to ask him what she
could do and actually pushed her aside.
Jensen climbed up the twisting crag at lightning speed, faster than he should have been
able to, but pitcher plants often did help the flies along.
Jesen reached the top, neighboring where Amethyst had been dancing. He looked at the
statue of his mate, "Oh Kaylee, how did this happen... I'm just... " as he touched touch the
statue, his hands slowly stroked her stone breasts... He actions became docile... "Yes..."
He looked at her smiling stone face, "We... shall be together forever." Jensen wolfhood
explored her lower stone opening, not resisting as her stone arms them closed around his
sister, and the other two stone muses placed a hand on each side of his rears. He returned
her embrace. "Yes dear, I hear you, yes, you and I, no more worries, no more concerns,
you and I... we can be together forever..."
And Jensen's body became solid marble and fused with the other three statues becoming
a singular piece of art. His face showing peace and contentment to match Kaylee's.
Darla limped foreword as she knelt down, having followed her mate through a WALL of
humanoid grizzly bears, one of her arms hung useless at her side and one of her legs was
throbbing, and there was that trail of blood she was leaving behind.
She felt someone take hold of her and felt she was about to fall, and felt two large things
press into her as well, guessing instantly who it was, "Amethyst?"
"I'm here Beta Female!"
"I saw two of Kaylee's clink use the cure on you... what happened?"
"That's what I want to know! ... I felt like I was on the best LSD trip of my life..."
"Where's Jensen?"
"Master?" Amethyst looks around, "I think... I think Master and Alpha Female are ... there?"
Darla looked, and actually cried out in despair.
++++++++
Chiyoye growls and snarled and tried to claw as the twins of Cobalt as they DANCED on her
giant breasts, "Ha ha! They're like giant pillows!"
"I'd say more like giant marsh mellows!"
"You can't eat them, so they're more like pillows!"
"But they're so soft and squishy!"
"SHUT UP!" Chiyoye snarled as Yomato tried to strike them only for him to accidently strike
Chiyoye instead as they leapt off and hug on the sides of her maternal material for a
moment before clawing back on (digging into her flesh as they did so!).
Yomato gasped in dishonor and shame but didn't have time much to think about it as
Tebby, Bethy, and the twins born of Quartz tackled him and began to tickle him.
The twins of Cobalt meanwhile, began to tickle Chiyoye's giant breasts. The process being
carried out on any wolf still on the beach who hadn't been split into two separate entities
yet.
Riding on the back of Frontdoor Abbey exploded out of the black ocean, the glass pup
riding on the beast's giant backside. Backdoor, and the other female gargoyles followed
suit, all of them now engraved with Amy's kanji.
Whatever their loyalties were now, whatever their opinions were now, the wolves still had
no idea, but the living statues clearly didn't want a world filled with aimless meaningless
chaos either, and DOVE into the gem twin army, who found out much to their shock that
the gargoyles were immune to tickling being living mineral like they were.
The surviving wolves gasped in relief, their sides aching they had been laughing so hard.
Millie turned on her side seeing the twinified Ting and Xing having her heads smacked
together by one of the gargoyles only rise up a moment later, but the gargoyles were very
effective at their work.
"Right." Millie thought, "We don't need to win this... we just need to keep the curse so
distracted that Amy and the rest can kill the consciousness."
"RAAAAGH!" Abbey turned as Glass wrapped her hands around Abbey's neck and dive into
the mirror world.
Underwater, but being able to breath all the same, the black and red rune covered dress
didn't anymore getwet than Abbey's white and blue one.
"YOU RUINED EVERYTHING! You're a child like me! You should understand right sister?! We
were all going to be free! FREE! To do whatever we want! To have whatever we want! To be
anything we want! Mother just wants pure and absolutely freedom for everything and
anything! No more rules! No more rules! No more rules!!! Don't you hate rules?! Imagine!
the entire world could be Wonderland! Wouldn't that be fabulous sister?!" Glass ranted and
raved she tried to strangle the life out of Abbey while trying to win her over at the same
time, in her insanity figuring that trying both at the same time was a really good time
saver... She really would have fit in Wonderland's 'logic.'
The gargoyles meanwhile, were suddenly hit by a herd of charging dear monsters, the
gem twins immediately began to ride them, Xing grabbing Ting when she almost fell off.
Some began doing head stands and other stood up with their arms apart like they were at
the circus coming at the surviving wolves for another go.
Not knowing how many of them were left in the chaos or how many had lost theirs during
the fights Millie shouted, "The herd! Throw the cure vials at the herd now!" As Millie threw
hers, which hit the beast right in the face, which by luck happened to be Jack.

"You see, they're so wrapped up in their epic battles they've completely forgotten about
that cursed poison they're all carrying... "
"This ends now." Amy spoke Alice's transform or dare.
Instead Kurse punch her across the face discarding magic for the moment for good old
fashioned violence.
Amy was knocked down.
"I sense everything anyone touched by my power senses now. After I first lost glass I took
precautions to make sure your little trick didn't work."
Ignoring Trevor was proving to be a big mistake as the black and gray lion boy bit into
Kurse's tail making her snarl.
"CHEAP SHOT!"
"I'd say fighting evil with evil only results in more evil, like I heard in a cartoon. But
seriously psycho-beotch? I don't give a blank."
It made her forget about Amy again who shot her in the shoulder from behind.
"I don't like any killing, but you're already dead." Amy said simply.
The arrow burned like the sun as Kurse tore it out, burning her hands in addition.
Paul then climbed on top of the now sixteen foot tall distracted black cat woman like she
was a tree, and used his crucifix as a garrote, Paul wasn't sure if this was disrespectful or
not, but since it was for a good cause, he figured God would forgive him.
The flesh around Kurse' neck melted and she coughed up blood. Her claws dug into the
sides of the orange great ape, taking fur and flesh with it. But Paul held up. Kurse gagged
and coughed. Finally she grabbed him and threw him off his body hitting and being nailed
to an upside down cross (his hands being nailed together while his 'feet' were nailed apart
as the blood rushed to his head).
Amy shot an arrow right into Kurse's knee cap as Trevor frantically got to work on tearing
the nails out (which grew barbs as he worked on them). Kurse tore the arrow out as he
burned flesh remained and roared.
"You know what happened to the first generation of Christian converts in japan?" Kurse
asked Paul. "They were exterminated by the japanese government."
Paul ignored her truthful, but obvious attempts at divide and conquer.
"Please stop that Trevor."
Trevor startled from his work as he turned around to see, "Queen?!"
"Please stop that dear, don't you know a world with no rules means no one has to obey the
laws of death or staying dead?"
"Queen! I-" Before Trevor could explain he had let her go, 'Queen' clawed at his gut
spilling blood, then 'Queen' at lighting speed zoomed back to Kurse 'her' tail connecting to
Kurse, the Queen decoy melting back into the end of kurse's tail.
"Dammit..." The black and gray lion cub cursed as he fell to his knees.
"Not really, no rules means no right or wrong," 'Said' Kurse creating a decoy of Judas
making it speak, "No right or wrong means nobody does anything bad or good, which
means there's no need for a heaven or hell. Isn't it time to free this naturally chaotic
universe, all the way to the subatomic it's blindly chaotic, yet God insists on imposing a
illusionary sense or oder on it." The decoy dissolved and Kurse snapped her claws.
In the curse world a solar eclipse suddenly happened (strange since there hadn't been a
sun before) and Ami suddenly someone had cut an umbilical cord she didn't even known
she had. She still stood however, breaking out in sweat on her nose.
++++++++++
"You know Fox." Said the midnight lioness to her dirty orange/dirty red partner.
The two were back to back kicking and clawing the minotaurs that got close and nearly
having their heads taken off by a sky diving centaur beast.
"Yes Elise?"
"We promised Brian we'd protect Trevor with our lives right?"
"Yes." Fox replies grabbing hold of a minotaur's massive hands as it almost went right
through her and twisted the monster so it fell on it's side.
"But we can't protect him because he's in that world of the Curse's mind or whatever... or
the part of him that matters at least..."
"I know!"
"Well, he's part of the pride now, part of our future, and well... I know we have our mission
but... I think I know how we can REALLY distract that curse, but you aren't going to like it."
"But it's likely to distract it enough to protect Trevor right?"
"Yes."
"Then that's all I need to know." Elise and Fox hated to admit it, but there was more to
their transformation than a species change, as Serenity had warned them. Elise and Fox
both were feeling and worrying about Mary and Trevor's safety as if they were their own
children... and while they had all accept The Game as real, and were fellow police, they
didn't mean they liked each other. But Fox felt as deep a bound with all of them as she did
her blood relatives... she couldn't bear to see them harmed or bring them harm... 'I guess
we're not quite like normal lions with human intelligence after all. Wonder if this is the
'civilized' part of our transform... not that it's about to matter in a second here.'
"You know what I'm thinking?"
"Unless it's to do the highland fling while whistling show tunes? Then yes."
"All right then." The two lionesses leapt over the minotaurs rammed into a centaur,
crackled some ribs and kept going, ending with a bloody leg as they ran. Their police belts
and what not all losted in the chaos, naked and free the two lionesses climbed onto the
craig from the opposite end Darla and Amethyst were on, and to the alter the gem wolf
had been doing her dance.
"You ready?" Elise asked.
"No, let's do this."
"HEY! YOU STUPID DAMN CURSE! YOU'RE JUST A GLORIFIED PARODY OF A GAME BORED
AND HORNY TEENAGERS PLAY! YOU GOT NOTHING! NOTHING! YOU COULDN'T CHANGE US
EVEN IF WE LET YOU! YOU'VE GOT NO STYLE! NO BRAINS! NO POWER!"
"COME ON! GIVE US YOUR WORST! YOUR POSITIVE ABSOLUTE WORST! WE DARE YA!"
"WE TRIPLE DOUBLE DOG DARE YA!"
"YOU CAN'T DO IT! NOT BECAUSE WE'RE NOT LETTING YA BUT BECAUSE YER CHICKEN!"
"THEN EVERYONE WILL SEE YOU GOT NOTHING! AND YOUR ISLAND IS UGLY! STUPID!
GLADE I DON'T LIVE HERE!"
"COME ON! COME ON! COME ON COME ON!"
"DODITDOITDOITDOITDOIT!!!"
"WE WANT YOU TO! WE WELCOME YOU TO! WE ALLOW YOU TO! BECAUSE YOU STINK AND
CAN'T COME UP WITH ANYTHING REALLY ANYTHING ANYWAY!!"
"WHY DON'T YOU COME BACK WITH SOME EYE OF NEWT?"
"OH OH OH! THAT'S WHERE YOU TURN US INTO NEWT EYES RIGHT? YOU KNOW WHY THAT
IS? BECAUSE YOU'VE GOT NO IMAGINATION! WHY ELSE WOULD YOU HAVE EVERYONE ELSE
COME UP WITH THE NASTY THINGS TO TURN PEOPLE INTO OR HAVE DO! LOSER!"
"HACKNEY!"
++++++
"Hackney? Hackney? HACKEY!!!!" Kurse snarled at the top of her lungs.
the entire cure world shock.
"YOU LET ME IN? RAGH!" And they hit upon the sore spot Kurse had left over from
Gormorrah who she was born from. Her lack of creativity. "I'll, show, you!"
+++++++
Fox and Elise's breast grew from conservative to the size that they actually fell to their
knees under the weight. Then their age became teenagers. Then they were both purple.
Then they were identical. Then they broke down into eight little lion girls in maid outfits
(no guesses were the extra mass came from). Then they forgot their own names. Then
they forgot each other's names. Then everyone everywhere forgot they had ever existed as
anything but what they were to become, be they pride, pack, or human. Two turned into
living plushies, then two naked and a marble and a glass statue in pirouette and prancing
poses. The plushie then lost their maid outfit in the progress one wearing a sowed on
bikini and the other a plain white dress with etched smiles on their cloth lion faces. The
plushies were picked up by two of the lion girls. The statues grew to a third larger than life
but keeping their age and material, then they fused into a base, and the stone lioness
began an endless stream of water from her mouth, the base becoming a basin for a
marble and glass fountain. The plushie divided into two bininki wearing and two white
dress wearing plushies half the size of the four remaining lion girls, each picking up one
knowing they were their favorite toy. Bright blue hair grew from the lionesses heads
(rather illogical due to lionesses being 'baled') which then shaped it into a pony tail, pig
tails, triple tail, and quad tails (two in front, two in pack) hair styles for each of the four
little girl lioness maids.
The four then sat down and began to have a tea party with their plushies talking about
how pretty the island was and how cute Trevor was and hope Mary was willing to share
him when they grew up.
++++
"BYE-BYE! Your memory will fade even from those who are immune to the perception
changes of the curse! HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT HUH? HUH? HUH? HUH? No one mourn you!
But what am I doin' here talkin' to people who now never existed and could have never
existed and will never exists? BAHAHAHAHH! LOSER! You don't even get to die! You aren't
even dead! You two are just poof! GONE! AGH!" An arrow, more like a solid beam of light,
went in one side of Kurse from her back, and out of the other going through through her
heart.
Kurse slowly turned around.
Amy looked at Kurse, with total and absolute divine rage, that put the temper tantrum
Kurse had just thrown to shame. Trevor held her out so she was able to shoot the arrow.
Kurse took a step sideways out of the weakened priestesses line of sight, or meant to, as
Paul threw his prayer beads like a bola, going around her legs with a will all it's own and
increasing in size so it could hold her, she tripped and fell foreword, to the sound of
thunder.
She looked into Amy's eyes. Amy let lose another arrow.
++++++
A psyche death cry echoed through every person the curse had effected.
++++++
"OW!" Kat held her head, feeling like someone had pulled a knife out of her head, and as
she brought her hands up to her head, she realized she could think clearly again: As did
many MANY other people.
Kat looked in the mirror to see a garish pink and white furred cat girl in a -very- revealing
outfit with garish blue tribal upon and down one side of her arms and legs with a chest a
tiny bit smaller than it had been.
"And I just got used to the tail and ears..."
+++++++
A mundane black cat with a hole in it's head through one eye that showed the other side
limp away from the dissolving black smoke in a desperate retreat. Trevor saw her, came
up behind her, and without hesitation broken her neck. It went limp, dead, and dissolved
into nothingness. And the curse, lost all sentience, all sapience, and any chance of
becoming self aware again.
