Sifting through the clothes, an idea began to form. Picking up a pair of Katie's panties, taking in the pink and white ducks printed on the white cotton, Declan grinned as he thought, "She is always acting like a brat and getting away with so much. Maybe I should..." and let the thought trail off as he listened to Denise telling Katie that she needed to take a nap before mom got home.
Grinning, the idea forming more and more, Declan crossed the room, grabbed his robe and casting about, walked into his closet. Pulling on the robe, he eventually found a balled up, dirty sock and thinking, "This will do," he stuffed it into his robe pocket, wondering how long it had been in his closet due to the smell.
Shrugging, he grabbed the medallion of Zulo and moving across his room, he stops as he notices the girl's clothing scattered about. Kicking it into his closet, he picks up the panties with the ducks and stuffing them into his other pocket, making sure the amulet does not come in contact with them just yet, he exits the room and begins to move down the hallway toward Katie's room, listening to the sounds of the house around him.
Stopping in the doorway of Katie's room, he listens as Denise and Karen start to argue over something downstairs. Knowing that the two will be at it for awhile, Declan entered the room, noting the sleeping form of Katie.
Stopping, Declan thinks, "I cant do this. I can not condemn her to my life. Either knowing she was once a girl and wanting to be one again or having all my memories, wanting to be a girl and being unaware that at one time she actually was a female," and sighing, he turned to leave.
"I don't care what you have to say and I don't care that mom left you in charge," Karen screamed out and Declan was aware that she was coming upstairs.
Panicking, he turned about and ducked back into Katie's room and looking about, he ran into the closet, shutting the door behind him.
Breathing a sigh of relief, he looked down and with just the light from the window shinning in through the door crack, Declan thought, "Maybe this has been one to many close calls. Maybe I should either come clean or just knock this off," and pressing his ear against the door, wondering if Karen has either gone to her room or back downstairs, he slipped the amulet into his pocket.
Soft fabric touches his fingers and then a jolt that makes Declan think of static electricity zaps him. Gasping out, realising that he has just accidentally touched the medallion to Katie's panties, Declan panicked and started forward, wanting only to get out of the closet.
Tripping over his robe, which has suddenly grown much larger, Declan spins around and completely disorientated, he moved forward, bashing his head against the lowest of the two bars his mother had put in his sister's closet. Sitting down hard on the pile of clothes, and what appeared to be his now several sizes to big bathroom, Declan wondered, "What will mother think when she sees two Katies," as he shook his head to clear away the tiny lights dancing before his eyes.
Disentangling himself from his now oversize clothes, Declan looked down and in the little light there is, he watches as his body changes before his eyes.
As his penis and testicles shrink, turn bright reddish-white and then fold into his body, Declan reached down and picking up the panties with the ducks, he pushed open the door and exits, not caring who sees him, only wanting get out of Katie's room before something even worse happened.
In the hall, Declan stumbled toward the bathroom and into the room. Closing the door, he flipped the light on, thinking, "Was Karen in the hall? No, I must be seeing things," as he slowly turned about.
Looking into the mirror, Declan gasped at what he saw and thought, "I am in deep trouble," as he took in the three foot four inch height, the tiniest hint of baby fat, the cleft area between the legs and that, all in all, he looked like Katie when she had been five.
Slipping on the underwear, suddenly realising that his youngest sister hadn't worn them since she had been about five, Declan suddenly remembered that he left the amulet in Katie's closet.
Reaching up to open the door, liking the way the panties moved against her skin, Declan gasped as the door suddenly opened and she was was forced to step back as she suddenly found herself looking up at Karen, who immediately told her, "I thought Denise said you were supposed to be taking a nap."
Unsure, not wanting Karen to find Katie in her bed and a duplicate in the bathroom, Declan looked wildly about and after a bit, blurted out, "Karen. You are not going to believe this, but that amulet I am always studying on line, it's real and it did this to me," and seeing the unbelieving look on Karen's face, Declan added, "You have to believe it's me, Declan."
Reaching down, Karen grabbed Declan's hand and pulling her out of the bathroom, she said, "I have no time for your games right now. I need to get ready for my date and you were told to..." and trailed off as she saw the sleeping form of Katie.
Wrenching her hand free, Declan raced toward the closet, but was stopped by Karen who demanded, "What is going on here?"
Turning, looking at her now older sister, Declan said, "It's the amulet that I told you about. It did this. It turned me into a five year old version of Katie." and turning, Declan started back toward the closet, saying, "I need to find it, otherwise this could be permanent."
"Permanent?" Karen asked from the door and turning, Declan watched as a smile formed on the older girl's face.
"No, no, no," Declan started to plead as Karen suddenly turned and giggling, she took off down the hall, screaming out for Denise to come and that their oldest sister just had to see something.
Looking over at Katie, glad that she was asleep still, Declan took one final look at the closet, and turning away from it, she toddled after Karen, calling out, "You don't you are doing," even as she heard Denise coming up the stairs.
