Peephole

Rebecca heard her buzzer go off. She looked out the peephole and saw her former body. She cursed. Jack must've come looking for his body back. She thought he'd be happy to be a woman, and had used a bodyswapper to switch bodies with him. Then she noticed he had brought his girlfriend with him. She pondered what additional chaos she might cause with the bodyswitcher. Perhaps her elderly neightbor, Mr. Finklestein would appreciate having the youthful, female body of Jack's girlfriend. Heck, she could switch around the entire building.

Trouble

"Hands against the wall!" Steven heard a voice yell.

The voice sounded closer, and Steven somehow felt like it was talking to him. He complied and started to realize some strange things. For starters, where exactly was he? He didn't feel like he wasn't in this place a moment ago. He realized his hands were now encased in leather gloves as well. In fact, he couldn't see his own body too well, but it was a body that certainly wasn't his! It was a woman's! He wasn't sure what she had done, but he knew he was in the one in trouble for it!

Arm wrestle

Ted was pissed when Mary was promoted over him. He didn't hide his disdain very well, and Mary quickly figured it out. She came up to him with an offer.

"Tell you what," She said, "Let's arm wrestle. If you win, I'll quit. You were runner-up for the position, so you'll be sure to get it. But if I win, I get to switch bodies with you."

"But switching bodies is impossible!" Ted replied.

"I assure you, it's very possible. It's a win-win for you. Even if you lose, you get my body, and with my body, you still technically have the promotion. But you'll be doing the job in pantyhose."

Ted instantly agreed. Mary couldn't have been more than a hundred pounds, and he doubted she could beat him.

Several hours later, as he pushed his blonde ponytail behind his head and adjusted his bra, he realized he shouldn't have been filled with so much hubris. Mary had kicked his ass in arm wrestling, and she was able to actually switch bodies with him. He was now her.

Trash

"You did what!?" Malcolm fumed at his wife.

"I told you. I threw the medallion in the trash." She replied.

"But why!?" He replied putting his hands on his hips.

"I decided it wasn't enough for you to be in my body for a few hours. You needed to learn more of a lesson than that. You're going to have to get used to it, Malcolm. Or should I call you Janet now? You're going to have to get used to being called Janet, you know?"

Spellbook

The spell HAD to be in this book. When Josephine switched bodies with Barry, he had found himself in her apartment and in her body holding this book. It had taken Barry a bit of time to figure out what had happened -- after all, no one expects to suddenly be in someone else's body -- but he had put the pieces together soon enough. He was, however, having a hard time reading the book. Most of it was in a language he simply didn't understand. He'd have to bring it to someone, but he was sure the spell to swap bodies was in here. He'd use it and get his body back!

Screwed up

Tom realized he had screwed up. When he switched bodies with the cab driver in the magic taxi, he realized that he could now switch bodies with anyone he ended up picking up. He wanted to select well, maybe even find someone famous. He hadn't intended to switch with a housewife. He had listened to her yammer on about her boring life, but he never intended to say the magic words of "Have a nice day, Ma'am," but he ended up doing so anyway. He quickly realized his mistake and tried to flag down the taxi once more, but it was long gone.

The mustache

It was a strange an unexpected feeling. Marvin had just been sitting around in his living room when it started. He could feel his body reshaping. It was getting smaller and daintier. He could feel his hair getting longer, his cheeks smoothen, and his belly contract. He wasn't worried, but he was curious. He needed to get to a room with a mirror. He rushed upstairs, and he saw his new reflection. There was only one small piece of his former self still remaining, the mustache on his upper lip. However, that too was soon gone, and there was no mistaken that he was a very beautiful young woman now.

Lessons

Mary thought she was teaching her husband Ben a lesson by switching bodies with him; Bob decided to teach her a lesson right back. He decided he'd show her that he could not only do all her household chores just as good as she could, but he could do them better -- all while wearing a little something sexy. The turkey he had prepared was way more complicated than her usual dinner, and he knew what he had picked to greet Mary coming home made his body look good.

New self

It was Jason's first time putting on earrings. Today was his first day doing a lot of things like putting on makeup and wearing a dress. He had avoided such things when The Great Shift first hit, but after a few days, he came to the realization that since he was a woman now, there things were inevitable. He was a woman now; this was who he was. He looked in the mirror, fully accepting his new self.

Passenger

Carl couldn't believe it. His passenger had seemed so together and with it in the cab that he had no qualms about stealing her body and taking her life, just as his had been by the previous driver a month ago. But as soon as he got out, he felt a craving. Discovering a pack of cigarettes in the woman's purse, he guessed that was it. While that calmed his nerves a little bit, that wasn't all. He needed something else, something he couldn't yet figure out. He wondered if this woman was into harder drugs or if she was addicted to something like sex!

Lake

It had been a bit of time since Missy had stolen Jonathan's body using the Medallion of Zulu. He had agreed to live her life until they could swap back, but he soon discovered that she had no interest in switching back. She had ditched the medallion in a lake, hoping to leave Jonathan stuck in her body forever. He wouldn't give up quite so easily. He took out a boat to go look for it the first chance he got. He was, however, starting to wish he had bought new clothes first. Everything Missy had was so girlie, which he reluctantly agreed to wear when he thought they'd soon be swapping back. But if she was going to leave him stuck a minute more than he had to, he just wished he had something more comfortable!

Insane

Everything about what had just happened freaked Anthony out. Realizing he was a woman was the first shock, then he realized what this woman was wearing. It was absolutely insane. Sort of sexy, but insane, nonetheless! Then there was the voice. When he let out a squeal from the shock, he was immediately irritated by the high pitched nasally whine quality to it. If there was no way to reverse this swap, he'd be stuck hearing that for the rest of his life.

GOOD

Dean wasted no time after the Great Shift swapped him into a woman's body. While many others were freaking out about their new bodies -- with plenty like Dean finding themselves now the opposite gender -- Dean decided to immediately take full advantage of his new body. He was rubbing his crotch up against anything he could find, and it felt GOOD.

Consciousness

Clyde held his head. Using the device always gave him the worst headache, but it was worth it. The strange machine was able to transfer his consciousness from his own body into the body of another. For a week, he'd have complete control of the borrowed body. His own body would be in a vegetative state, while the consciousness of the person he possessed would be just sort of pushed down for the time. He could be anyone, anyone he wanted. Lately, he'd been picking women, and he couldn't be happier.

News

Jim had worked for over 40 years to claw his way up to the national news desk, and then in an instant it was all gone. Taken away by the Great Shift, thanks to the fact that he had switched bodies with a blached blonde bimbo working the morning news show in a small local market. He wanted to argue for his old position, but he felt he wouldn't be taken seriously in the boys' club with his new body. He resigned himself to his new role covering fluff stories in the middle of nowhere, but he still sighed each morning as he longed to be back in the national scene.

Malfunction (Part 3)

Click here for Part 2.

By the time Jim's daughter came home, Jacequlyn had already left. The young girl just stared at the strange woman before her, asking where her dad was. Jim tried to explain the sitation, but she just didn't get it. Jim and his daughter ate together with a hushed silence upon them. This was the problem with having Jacequlyn's body instead of his own. He hoped he and his daughter could make it through the next couple days with this strain on their relationship.

Forest

Brad had been walking around the forest enjoying the crisp Autumn air. He heard a rustling and was shocked when a woman came running through the trees. He was surprised at how well she ran given the high heels on her feet. He tried to stop and ask her what was wrong, but instead she pushed him to the ground, knocking him out for a short while. He awoke feeling strange. He couldn't quite place it at first, but then he looked down. He couldn't see his new face, but the shape of the body and the clothes were a dead giveaway, particularly the heels. He had switched bodies with that woman!

Pixie cut

Chris couldn't understand how Amber dealt with this long hair. He wanted to cut it off and give her a pixie cut. After all, it was his body now -- at least for the time being. But then again, they were scheduled to swap back at the end of the week, and she'd probably kill him if he cut off her hair. He didn't want to piss his girlfriend off like that. Still, he couldn't wait for the end of the week.

Sneering

Michael shot a look of sneering confusion to his former body. At first, he wondered if he was looking at some sort of hologram or hallucination, but looking down he discovered he had actually switched bodies with his friend Kelly. He was freaking out at the fact that he was now a woman. He screamed and complained about having to deal with periods and bras. Kelly looked back and asked if he thought she was any more pleased with the swap. She, of course, now had to deal with an uncomfortable itchy face and a strange stirring between her legs.

Switch Switch Paradise

Submitted by Hikari

Tiffany had been invited on a trip by one of her cousins named Ryan; however, on the day they headed out to the resort, everyone besides Ryan and Tiffany couldn't go, and the two went alone.

Once they got there, Tiffany quickly changed into her one piece swimming suit and went outdoors to see the outdoor swimming pool while Ryan sorted out the paperwork in the lobby. Tiffany looked out towards the nearby beach and could see people acting strangely. She notice a girl in a pink bikini laying in the low tides when suddenly a transparent ghost figure rose out from her body while another ghostly figure entered her body.

Just then Ryan called out to Tiffany who was about to leave the pool when her body froze as a ghostly figure of Ryan entered her as she blacked out with a sense of detachment from her body. When she reopened her eyes in Ryan body, she saw Ryan cutely posing in her body with a victory sign saying "Yay switch switch paradise! Permanent body swap big success!" Tiffany demanded to know what happened and Ryan replied back that she signed an agreement at the lobby allowing Ryan to switch with her and keep her new body as long as he or she wanted at will and that his or her former sweet cousin should read the papers given to them to sign.

Turning heads

Jenny and Luke could still remember a time when two women kissing or holding hands in a public park in the midwest would turn heads. Of course, that was long before gay marriage was passed nationwide and even longer before the Great Shift. The worldwide bodyswapping event had really been the nail in the coffin for discimination against gays and lesbians. After all, there were plenty of people who had been a straight couple before the Shift and now found themselves in a situation like Jenny and Luke were in, where both members of the couple switched with women or both members switched with men. Jenny knew she still loved Luke despite the fact that he was now a woman, and Luke knew he still loved Jenny despite the fact that he was now a woman. Even if people didn't find themselves in such a sitation, they knew a friend of family member who did.
