Sadie started to step forward, bit the kid drew back the medallion, "OK, not just yet. From what I've read, you'll get some of my memories, but not neccesarily all of them. Upstairs, in my room, is a computer. Password is 'horse'. You might want to make that more secure later. There's a file I called 'term paper on china tea trade'. In that is actually everything I could think to put in about my life. My freinds, events, passwords, classes, everything."
"Try and live my life as normal. And hang onto the medallion. Don't let it go too far away. If you lose it, we're both stuck," he shrugged, "I guess I could think of worse things than being stuck as a horse, but I'd prefer the option of being human again."
With that, the kid stuck out his hand. Sadie walked over and covered the other end of the medallion with her lips...

About half an hour later, Thomas Karn, formerly Sadie the mare, walked casually back to the farmhouse. He let himself in quietly. He could hear his parents watching TV in the front room and his sisters working away on their homework or chores in other parts of the house. He walked upstairs, into his room and closed and locked the door.
The former mare walked to the computer, flipped it on, and started to read.
