Thy Sister's Keeper

Cherie had had enough of her brother rummaging through her clothes, dressing up and reading her books. Cliff didn’t care what Cherie thought. Her clothes felt so good against his skin even if the fit wasn’t perfect and her choice in reading matched his perfectly. Cliff would keep reading when Cherie entered the room as if she were not there. Dad and mom stopped talking to Cliff about wearing his sister’s clothes because Cliff refused to listen.

It would not be so bad if Cliff didn’t stretch out her clothes, Cherie thought. But he did. When a witch offered Cherie magic dust to sprinkle on her clothes it was an easy sale. Anyone, according to the witch, would turn into her twin if they wore her clothes. Cherie sprinkles the invisible dust on every piece of clothing she had and warned Cliff he’d turn into a girl if he wore her clothes again. Cliff pfffttt’d.

That afternoon Cliff settled into a nice book Cherie was half finished reading and her jeans, sweater, scarf and boots, not to mention her bra and panty. An hour later Cherie walked in. “How you feel, brother?” Cliff ignored her. “My clothes fit better now?” Cliff stopped reading as he did notice Cherie’s clothes did fit better. “I met a witch. She sold me magic dust. I put it on all my clothes.” Cliff put the book down and checked himself out. He was a girl! An exact copy of Cherie! “Don’t worry, sis. I love you and will take care of you. I think I’ll call you Chastity.” Cliff looked at Cherie for a moment and went back to reading her book.

Girl for a Weekend

Sam felt like partying. His luck had finally changed when he met the witch that offered him three wishes. At first he thought it was a joke so he wished for money. Lots of money. The witch handed him a dollar to buy a lottery ticket. Sam won. The joke turned serious as a heart attack in an instant.

Now that Sam knew he had a real two wishes remaining he wanted to focus on what he wanted most. He always wanted to know what it was like to be a girl for a day, maybe a weekend. With a mischievous grin he looked up, returning from his thoughts, and said to the witch, “I want to be a girl, a happy girl.” And so it was. Sam turned into Helen in an instant and started dancing in the street.

Sam had the best weekend of his life as Helen. Now it was time to go back to his old life. The witch just smiled when Sam asked for his last wish to be returned to his own body. “Oh, honey,” the witch said. “You already used your three wishes.” “No, I didn’t,” Sam shot back. “Oh yes, you did,” the witch smiled. “You asked for money, then to be a girl, and last to be a happy girl.” Sam remembered stuttering out the words, but… The witch cupped Sam’s chin in her hand. “You better get used to living as Helen.”

The Gift of Time

Neal left home for a long walk in the woods. The warm summer day felt warm against his skin, the sun peaking through the leaves touched his face lightly making Neal smile. After walking an hour he sat next to a tree, leaned back, and closed his eyes.

As soon as Neal fell asleep a witch came down the path. She saw Neal asleep next to the tree and feel deeply in love with him. The witch cast a spell. Neal didn't remember the next 300 years of life he lived with the witch.

Witches live a long time but not forever. Out of love for Neal she used her last bit of energy to cast a spell. The witch sent Neal back in time to the tree and his afternoon nap. She knew Neal wanted to be a woman so she made him the most beautiful woman he knew.

Neal woke from his afternoon nap without any knowledge of a 300 year love affair with a witch. He looked down at his body and never noticed he was now in his wife Sara’s body. Sara stood, stretched and brushed herself off.

Sara returned home and walked into the house to see her husband Neal waiting for her. She wrapped her arms around Neal’s neck and kissed him. Her husband pulled back and held out two tickets to the ballet, Sara’s favorite. Sara loved wearing a new dress and the ballet was the perfect opportunity. Sara and Neal lived a long, happy life together unaware of the role reversal gifted them by the witch.

No Price at All

When Howard was a small boy he was in a car accident. His mom was unconscious behind the wheel with a nasty cut on her forehead; Howard was in the back seat unhurt, but trapped. A kindly witch happened by. Howard begged her to help his mom. The witch refused saying he had nothing to pay her for her help.

Howard started crying inconsolably. A witch’s heart may be cold, but it isn’t made of stone. The witch examined Howard’s mom and said, “I can help her, but you must give me something I want.” Too young to know better, Howard nodded approval. The witch pushed the metal away from Howard’s mom with a gentle touch of her hand. She removed mom from the car and placed her flat on the ground. Touching mom’s forehead the cut disappeared.

The witch reached into the back seat and helped Howard out and brought him to his mother’s side. “She will awake soon and I’ll be gone. She is safe now.” Howard said ‘thank you’ though tears. “You still need to pay for my services,” the witch said crouching to look Howard straight in the eyes. Howard’s eyes became huge ovals. “You will serve other as a woman as my price.” Howard did not understand at first.

Years later Howard reflected on his life before the witch turned him into Beatrice. His mother didn’t recognize him when she regained consciousness. He was a little girl back then. Now he serves his country, helping others in need every day. Deep down Howard knew the witch was not paid. The witch paid Howard for allowing her to help his mother.

Dress Code

Nate loved Anna, but he could not spent time with her because she lived at the Girl’s School of Perpetual Motion. The religious school did not allow any males on the premises except the priest. The nuns are very protective of their subjects, ah, I mean students. According to the nuns, boys were a bad influence and temptation to the girls. The school provided a purifying enclave where the girls could study and learn about god.

But love is greater than all those things. It says so in the book of Corinthians in the Bible, Chapter 13. This “greatest of all things”, this “love” is something Nate and Anna possessed. They wanted to be together, but were forced to be apart. Nate was open to anything that would bring them together.

There are powers greater than faux gods. Love is the most powerful. Whoever possesses love has the ultimate power, even a devil, or in the case of Nate, a witch. The witch came to Nate knowing his problem; witches know these kinds of things. She promised a spell that would end all their problems. How could Nate not agree?

Nate did not know what to expect when he agreed to allow the witch to solve his problem. The witch untied the pouch attached to her belt and sprinkled dust from the pouch on Nate’s head and shoulders. He became faint for a few moments. As he regained his balance he knew he was changed. He was a girl and wearing the uniform required of all the girls at the school. The witch said his name was Madeline now.

The witch pretended to be Madeline’s mother as she checked him into the school. The witch used her power to cause the school to place Madeline and Anna in the same room. Madeline told Anna what happened and who he is. Anna was so happy to be back with Nate. The lovemaking in their room was torrid. Love is the new religion.

The Witch in the Woods

After Richard’s girlfriend dumped him for some rich guy he compensated by starting to wear women’s clothes and changing his name to Darlene. It was all fun and games at first. Dressing like a girl felt new, refreshing, and exciting. Then it turned normal. Panties felt more comfortable than boxers and he felt naked without leggings.

The makeup and preparation to go outside took more and more time as Darlene wanted to look so feminine no one would know who he really was. The Law of Attraction was beginning to take hold. When you believe something to be real hard enough it has a tendency to come true. For Richard it was a dream of a witch visiting him in the night and magically changing him into the woman of his dreams. His friends said Darlene paid a secret visit to the doctors at TG Inc.

Darlene tells the story so convincingly everyone believes a witch lives in the woods outside of town turning naughty boys into girls. I heard the story myself and must confess there does seem to be a lot of new women in town lately. For some reason I want to take a stroll through the countryside.

Note: The author of this story disappeared shortly after writing it. A woman claiming to be the author showed up and took over his life. We make no claims on the authenticity of such stories and allow the reader to come to his own conclusions.

A Change of Worldview

There once was a man named Alex who lived on Earth working as a construction worker.  As a young man Alex felt wrong. He worked hard, drank hard, played hard and smoked. He wanted to seem normal so he tried spending time with girls, not just as friends, but as, you know, lovers. It did not go well. Alex felt he should be the girl! He felt sorry for the girls he was with; he could not be a ‘real’ man.

Alex took early retirement to avoid people. He moved off-world to Trantoon 6, sometimes called the fairy tale world, where vast areas of the planet were covered in forest. Alex avoided facing his confused feelings about gender by avoiding all people. But even on a world like Trantoon, people move into the neighborhood.

A pretty golden haired girl named Goldie moved in a mile down the dirt road. She was bubbly and all smiles. She refused to be alone,even when living alone. She walked to Alex’s house in the woods everyday right around supper time. Over the weeks she pried the truth out of Alex. She understood Alex’s problem.

Goldie took Alex’s hands and told him the truth about her. It seems Goldie is a witch, or at least a magical being able to grant wishes. Does it matter on the fairy tale world? Goldie asked Alex to close his eyes while holding her hands. When he reopened his eyes he saw himself. He was in Goldie’s body! “Go home,” Goldie said from his body. “Live my life for a while and see if you like it. If you want this body and life back I will return it. If not, I can dispose of this body and move on.”

The months and years went by with no desire to be Alex again. One day Alex (his body, at least) showed up at Goldie’s doorstep with a marriage proposal. It seems when Goldie moved into Alex’s body she became Alex, only without the insecurities about women. And now he was in love. Goldie had to admit his old body looked good for its age. Of course she said yes. It’s the fairy tale world.

A New Way Home

A late summer heat wave made the bike ride home from work brutal for Matt. The heat was not the worst part, the humidity was. The saving grace was the wooded path he took for most of the ride home. Unfortunately, Matt hit a small, sharp stone that pinched the tire just right and punctured the inner tube.

The wind while riding made the humidity and temperature bearable. Sweat formed on his forehead immediately now and started dripping into his eyes. Without a spare inner tube or the tools to change it, Matt was forced to walk his bike home. A few minutes after he started walking a hiker came from the other direction. She smiled at Matt and stopped when she noticed the flat.

“I can help,” the beautiful waif said. The girl, waif, had long blonde hair. Her frail stature made it hard for Matt to believe she could carry her backpack. Her soft features drew Matt into her. She handed Matt a bottle of water. The heat was getting to Matt so he accepted the gift. After drinking deeply he started to get dizzy. He struggled to stay awake to no avail. He sat on the ground and lay back, losing consciousness.

Matt could not tell how much time had passed since he fell asleep. It was still light out. His bike was fixed and in perfect working order. He kept thinking his name is Alisha. He felt and looked like Alisha. Then the rumors came back to him, rumors about a witch in the woods protecting travelers for a price. Alisha never paid much stock in paranormal mysteries, until now. His wife will sure be surprised when he walks in the door tonight. He has a story to tell.
