"Huh?!" Nate looked up at the Host, then back down at his crotch. Sure enough, the heavy, huge black sheath and pulsing dark penis that now hung down halfway to his knees were missing some important accessories underneath. And the penis itself was blunt, missing the flat equine head. It was obvious Nate was upset, and he started to cry out, but the team member behind him started speaking soothingly into his ear as he brushed, and the young man relaxed and his eyes lost focus.
Nick chuckled as the other three team members hefted the complex and beautiful harness and bridle straps and carefully placed them on the now-calm Nate. The red-haired leader made a complex gesture and said something that no one could quite make out, and then Nate suddenly swelling out! His pale skin erupted with golden fur, and his lower body inflated like some skin balloon - his legs double in size, then split apart to become four legs. Four equine legs. Two of the team members grabbed Nate so he wouldn;t fall, and steadied him as everything from the waist down grew into what looked like the body of a foal.
His upper body also began to change, shrinking and smoothing out. The harness shrank around him, and the audience gasped and applauded as Nate finished changing into an adorable centaur boy, no more than 5 or 6 years old. His hair now matched the golden body fur, with a white mane that rane all the way down his back. His face was very horsey, the lower part pushed out into a muzzle-like shape and horse's eyes that still looked dazed. The team stepped back, though the leader now held a lead that was attached to the centaur colt's chest harness. "And there we have our first Clydesdale Centaur! Naturaly, we have to make sure he is trained up properly, and since his life span is now that of a horse, we didn't want to waste his mature years. And since we also need him to be our willing and loyal representative for the rest of his life, we got rid of the memories and intelligence that might cause issues later!"
Nick chuckled. "So it looks like Nate gets what he asked for, but maybe not what he wanted. He's a really smart animal with arms, and no awareness of ever being anyhting else!"
The leader grinned and nodded. "That's right, Nick! We usually leave awareness in the animal transformations, but since he will have a voice, we wanted to make sure he only says what WE want him to say."
The team gathered up thier supplies, but Nick held up a hand to keep them from leaving. "I'm told the normal Budweiser show team recently lost a horse to old age, and they have an opening. If anyone in the audience wants to step up right now, it's your best opportunity to become a full Clydesdale."
