[Reality Change, Brainwashing, Corruption]

"Another day, another set of announcements that need to get sent out. I swear, do people even listen to them? The last time I got thanks was when that short gal was by..."

Sakeko Zekkyou, the girl in charge of making all the announcements that would ring throughout the school on a daily and almost hourly basis, was sitting in her swiveling chair as she almost just let her head lean out over the back of her chair. She had an incredibly thankless job. It didn't help that she looked like a real mess, to the point where her eyes were covered up by two large round spectacles, and she looked like she didn't fit in her uniform, and she constantly had a bag of snacks with her...

Okay, there were a lot of reasons why you shouldn't respect her. She had to admit that much, especially as she slowly grabbed another handful of chips and shoved them down. But at the same time, she wanted to be useful. She wanted to be seen as a cute girl. That's what she was so proud of, which was something one could hear if they listened to her voice. Contrary to her look, she was a very adorable girl. Because she had just the right kind of voice. The kind of voice that was almost impossible to resist. The kind of voice that was perfect for guiding people...

But it was hopeless. As much as people loved the sound of 'the announcer girl', as soon as they saw her they lost interest. All except for the few that regularly interacted with her. And those few were the student council, so they naturally took her work for granted because it meant that they didn't have to carry out something so boring. It was getting to the point where she just hoped that something, anything would-

"Sakeko."

Sakeko shouted in surprise as she almost fell out of her chair, all thanks to the sudden arrival of one Saki Himitsu, who was as characteristically stern yet soft looking as ever. Something that prompted the girl to very quickly right herself and spin towards her, sweat dripping down her face. "A-Ah, Student President! What an honor to see you stop by! I haven't even sent out my first announcement for the day, is there something I need to update?"

Saki nodded as she came closer, smiling a little more. "You've been working awfully hard lately. So I wanted to help you out a little." She chimed, as she reached into her pocket. "But please, do keep your space clean. You're going to leak crumbs into the broadcast, and then they're going to keep laughing at you for being a slob."

"Y-You really didn't have to point that out, Student President..." Sakeko's pride was immediately torn to shreds thanks to the older girl's way of striking at her weakness, only for her eyes to widen as she noticed something glinting in the cyan-haired girl's hand... "W-Wait, is that..?"

"Indeed." Saki said, her smile taking on an uncharacteristically foreboding shine as she pulled out a Jõtai from her pocket. One that was already brimming with power. "You should cut loose and just announce what you want. That's what Golden Freedom wants from you, Sakeko." She said, as she carefully grabbed the nerdy girl's hand...

Pausing for a brief moment as she didn't show any resistance. Now that was odd. She had to use her abilities to subdue the last few people that she had helped transform. So this prompted her to raise an eyebrow and look at Sakeko's face. "Are you not intimidated by the way I force myself upon you, Sakeko?"

"I-I mean... I-I kinda am..." Sakeko muttered as she blushed. Especially as Saki held her hand just like a lover would. "B-But it's... It's going to help you, right? I-I always kinda wanted to help you and the student council. B-But if you're... If you're one of the baddies, then I don't think it's that bad to help you either..." She was like an open book. She just let all of her thoughts spill out even if she hadn't been prompted. All because of the one that was currently holding her hand. How utterly adorable. And how utterly exploitable as well...

Saki blinked a few times, before a soft blush forced its way onto her cheeks as well. "I..." She muttered, before clearing her throat. "Thank you, Sakeko. Thank you for aiding us in our pursuit of freedom. Here. Lean close. I want to give you something, besides this Jõtai. Remember to close your eyes. No peeking."

"No peeking..." Sakeko muttered as she snapped her eyes shut, and hoped that nothing bad would happen. She could feel the sweat running down the side of her head as she kept her eyes shut, and while she felt the ring slide onto her finger. Was it because she wanted to hide the true nature of this transformation from her, or-

Her eyes snapped open as she immediately felt a gentle sensation against her lips. And she barely caught the sight of Saki retreating after she had kissed her. A sight that made Sakeko turn as red as she possibly could, the sheer concept of kissing somebody that she looked up to like this... it was... it was..!

"Ah... Ahhhh! AhhHHHHHHH!"

The cries of her excessively intense emotion served to power her transformation, as she was immediately consumed by the golden glow from her ring. All while Saki took a few steps back and made sure that she was able to keep herself in check. It was one thing to almost get confessed to by a girl, it was another to actively accept that confession for the sake of her ideals. She just hoped that she hadn't gone too far.

The golden glow slowly but surely vanished as the girl started to take form yet again. And the thing that was immediately obvious was the way that her arms were now decorated with several speakers. All while her body seemed to have even more plastered along it. Hell, her dress was just one big speaker pointed down towards the ground.

As for her face, it was clear that her mouth was a speaker as well. But it didn't look unnatural. It looked like she was always seductively smiling, especially as she chuckled and an almost melodic tone left her 'speaker'. All while she looked upon the wonderful girl that had helped her achieve this form.

"I'll announce everything you want me to, Saki! That's why I exist, as the Speakstress that lets everyone know exactly what they should be doing at all times!" The Speakstress introduced herself, with her speakers amplifying her sound and her pride. She was beyond happy to be like this. Even if she was just essentially a walking speaker system, she was happy to serve the one that she had been crushing on...

Saki smiled and gently bowed in front of her. "I look forward to seeing you do your best, Speakstress. I'll make sure that you get your audience, you just make sure that everyone hears you. Then, everything will definitely fall into place..."

And with that, Saki took her leave. Allowing the Speakstress to turn towards the system that was supposed to control all the announcements that she had to voice out throughout the day. A simple task that was turning so utterly dull...

Time to kick it up a notch and see what kind of announcements she could get away with!

---

Ahhhh! Mikai was late! Late, late, late!

"How come you decided that it was a good idea to fight your Mom in the morning? You know you get locked into a runback loop, Mikai!" Chimera was doing her best to run alongside her. Even though it was completely unnecessary due to the nature of her current state of being, and the fact that she had wings that were much better for traversal than a set of dinky legs.

"I don't know, okay!? And it's not like you were any help, you kept egging me on!" Mikai shouted as she did her best to run as fast as she could without transforming. All while there was a piece of toast hanging on for dear life as it swung back and forth while gripped in between her teeth. The fact it hadn't fallen onto the ground at this speed was a miracle in and of itself.

Of course, they weren't running to school just because they were late. That wouldn't make this anywhere close to a problem. No, the reason why they had to hurry like this was because it was also an exam day. They were missing out on an important exam that could spell life and death for them! Or at the very least it could cause them to end up in detention and then she would end up in even more danger because that meant that she was going to be subject to a certain teacher's wrestling hobby, as Agatha had kept telling her over and over. She really didn't want to end up bench pressed. Not while her spine was still intact!

Although, as she kept running along the road, it felt like something was... Yeah, something was definitely up. it was like she could feel the miasma in the air. As if there had been a transformation just recently. The only reason she had started to pick up on these things was due to how much she had been exposed, and her heightened senses ever since she unlocked her personal transformation. But who could be on the prowl today? A pharaoh? A snake? A snake that was somehow the empress of an old empire? There were many options, and the only reason she couldn't pull her mind away from the Egyptian theme was because that was the kind of character that her mom had used to kick her butt!

The bell rang just as she made it to school, and she had to catch her breath. Simultaneously causing the bread that she had intended to chow down on to fall onto the ground, but the fact that she had made it and still had to catch her breath was more important than her hunger. She just... She...

...Okay, she was seeing things, right? There wasn't literally a horde of gyaru currently patrolling the school grounds, dressed in militant outfits that made them look like they had fallen for one of Spider's tricks. right? Riiiiiight?

"You're not seeing things." Chimera said as she slowly blinked herself, carefully approaching one of the gyaru as they were unable to truly perceive her due to her nature as one of Mikai's passengers. "At least they're not scolding you for being late. Then you'd have a problem." She said, slowly disappearing as she was content to just relax after all that running. Even if she hadn't really expended any proper energy...

The worst part wasn't that they were all dressed like soldiers. Nor was it that they were ignoring them. The worst part was that she could definitely tell that some of them were the very same gyaru that she had gotten acquainted with. The ganguros too. They were all just... Stone Faced and obedient. It was like all of the joy had been drained out of them. As if somebody had played a wicked joke on them...

Mikai did her best to ignore them. Especially since they ignored her. What they were around for, she had no idea. But as long as they didn't bother her, then...

"Attention! Attteeeeennnsion! This is the Speakstress, coming at you with another brand new hot announcement!"

Eh? Announcements? Oh, that was one of those things that she had completely ignored for the most part. Beyond that one time where they helped organize a proper evacuation, preventing certain girls and boys from getting Pawned thanks to her timely intervention... And given the name of the person speaking, yeah, she had been turned into a Jõtaijin. Just great.

"So, you know how Virgo's actually like, Virgin if you translate it? Yeah, that's a buncha bogus. They're actually the kind of girls that just go out and hit on anybody. And if they manage to hook somebody in, they're gonna rock their world. See for yourself!"

As the announcement rang out, Mikai felt a wave pouring through the school. Okay, so that was her power. She made her announcements do things. But she didn't know anybody that was a Virgo. Actually, what was a Virgo again? Those were... Zodiac signs, right? Tsubasa had shown her a bunch of heroes that used them as their insignia, but none of them had managed to stick within her mind...

"Mmmm... That's right..."

Mikai turned around to face the sound of that sensual voice, and she immediately spotted her dear Yumeko currently pressing another student against the wall. Her usual outfit had been replaced for one she could best describe as pure eroticism. An open blouse, no bra, and a skirt that was so short that you could practically see her privates because there was absolutely no underwear covering it. Combine that with a set of long stockings that made her legs seem even hotter than they really were, and a bit of makeup to really bring out her beauty... And she looked like she was ready to seduce.

"Yumeko! You can't just go hit on people, they barely know you!" Mikai said as she ran towards the girl, grabbing her on the shoulders. Just hard enough for the girl to let go of the boy that she was bullying, all so she could turn towards the one that had called out towards her...

Yumeko tapped her chin a little as she looked at Mikai. Was she... Familiar? Nah, probably not. Not like she could really afford any good brainpower for thinking. She was way too busy just thinking about the ways that she could cram things into her... Mmmm...

"Sorry, kiddo." Yumeko chimed as she planted a kiss right on Mikai's forehead. All while waving bye as she walked off like nothing was wrong. She needed to find a good man... Or if she was lucky, one of those girls that were packing between their thighs. Now that would be just right for this heat in her loins. Mmmph, she just needed to satiate it before it got too bad...

Mikai watched as she walked away, and the only thing that remained on her mind was how wrong it seemed. Was she... No, definitely not. This wasn't one of Tsubasa's really bad stories. Honestly, why did he even write that kind of stuff? No, she had to focus and think about a way to find the Speakstress...

Maybe she could just break through a couple of walls, and...

"Ding ding! Here's another announcement!" The Speakstress' words echoed out as a wave quickly spread through the school. Right as Mikai saw a drill-haired blonde leave one of the bathrooms, seemingly not pleased with how the day was going. "Did you know? The best strength is the kindness of the heart. So the stronger you are, the nicer you have to be. It's true, totes true!"

"What the hell did I-" Agatha muttered as she suddenly turned to look at Mikai. Great timing, she definitely needed her. After how terribly everything had been going, she needed a sight for sore eyes. At least, that's what she thought. Right before the wave that went through the school consumed her, and her mind started to jolt around and grow more and more unstable.

Mikai rushed over. "Agatha, are you okay?" Of course she was worried on the behalf of a friend. There's no way that she'd let her get hurt. Even if she had hurt her a lot in the past, they were still close friends. And that meant that she wasn't about to let something like that happen to her.

Agatha let out a soft gasp as she looked at Mikai. Oh, how horrible. There was the girl that she had hurt so much in the past. How dreadful, how utterly abominable. She had been such a bad girl. Hopefully she could forgive her....

"Oh, Mikai! You sweet, sweet little angel!" Agatha's voice lacked any of the usual tsundere undertones, and was just filled with pure love and kindness as she hugged the sandy-blonde girl and snuggled her as much as she could. "I'm so glad you were concerned about me! It fills my big heart with so much love. But you really don't have to worry about me, I'm as right as rain as long as you're here!"

Mikai wasn't sure how she should currently be feeling. On one hand, she definitely didn't think that Agatha should be like this. It was beyond unnatural. And yet... It kinda felt nice to be held like this. She almost wanted it to keep going until she didn't want to hold her any longer. Then she'd... She'd... Oh, what was she going to do..?

"Oi! Mikai! Don't let her hug you for too long! You'll just fall prey to the announcements too!"

Mikai blinked as she heard a rougher voice cry out, and she looked off to the side as two familiar girls made themselves apparent. A tomboy with a golden arm, and a gothic gal who was still far too muscly for her own good. Mina and Rika, the girls that had joined up while they were stuck as Jõtaijin!

"You two managed to escape?" Mikai asked, before quickly giving Agatha a kiss to make her let go. An act that just completely shut the girl down and made her smoke all over, letting Mikai focus on what was important. "They didn't send out any announcements that were able to lock you down? That's surprising, they hit both Yumeko and Agatha already!"

Rika giggled a little as she pushed her fingers together. "T-Turns out that when you're already full of love while strong, it really can't affect you. And Mina's... Not exactly easy to nail down. She's a lot of things, including really reliable!" She chimed, all while she continued to tower over both her girlfriend and the girl that had helped bring them back to sanity...

"Not the time to gush about me, Rika!" Mina shouted, before slapping her arm. "Turns out that draining students leaves you with a lot of different traits that are difficult to nail down. Hope you don't mind that I did a bit of your work for you, even if this isn't the way I'd like to help."

Mikai grinned a little and nodded. It was hard not to appreciate a bit of help. Especially from two of her good friends. She needed to try and spend some more time with them in the future, that was for sure. "Do you know where the announcement room is? I don't know, it's been a while since I was there. And it's probably moved, knowing how Jõtaijin work."

Mina shook her head and just punched her golden fist into the palm of her hand. "We'll just break our way there. C'mon!" She shouted, as she was just about to run off and help out her friend.

"Another announcement for all those sporty girls that think they're hot shit! Turns out sports are actually just for nerds! Bet you didn't know that, huh? Well, good thing you won't get wedgied cuz there's no jocks when nerds are the only athletes!"

Speakstress didn't let them get any further than where they had already gotten. Not when she still had the chance to manipulate them with a few particular words. And this announcement was one that affected both the tall muscled cheerleader and the prideful athlete, as both of them trembled all over while Mikai was forced to watch.

Their clothes, meant to be nice and open so they could do everything that they needed to during their athletic activities, were replaced with a set of stuffy plaid sweaters and overalls, all while their forms gradually softened and plumped up a bit. Their hair grew nice and fritzy and hard to properly wash, while a set of square-rimmed glasses smacked their way onto their faces. They looked identical in terms of aesthetic, though that also meant that they were matching.

"O-Oh no, I can't run in the halls!" Mina cried out, snorting due to her new nerdy disposition. "R-Rikacchi, what do we do? I don't know where we can go!" Just like that, all of the useful pride inside of the girl's body had vanished. Replaced with a completely unconfident nerd that just hoped that her friend would be able to cover for her.

Rika's response was to simply hug her friend and squeeze her tight. Even though she had lost her muscle, she was still big in every right way. "I-It's okay. Mikaicchi will get us fixed. Y-Yeah! Yeah!" Rika cried out as she turned towards Mikai. "T-Transform, Mikaicchi! That'll let you find her! I'm sure of it!"

Well, they told her to transform. If she didn't transform now, it'd not only be letting them down, but she'd be wasting a perfectly good opportunity. "Henshi-"

"Oh, by the way, Henshins are totally off limits here at the school. No henshining on school grounds, we already caught somebody trying and we made sure to spank her until she was completely red!"

Mikai let out a yelp as a rush of pain poured through her. She didn't want to look down, but she could definitely tell that she had been affected by the announcement. How was she able to tell that she was trying to transform!? What kind of cameras were set up around the... Actually she kinda knew what kind, Hiro had shown her the system before. Wait, that's it! Hiro could help her!

She clicked the bracelet that she had been given a while back. All to set up a virtual call with her fellow Jõtaider. "Hiro! Hiro, I need backup! Now!" She cried out, hoping that she would get through to her...

Only for the screen to open, revealing Hiro currently with big tears in her eyes, and an incredibly cute outfit that made her look more like an adorable princess than a heroine. "W-Why'd you have to call, Mikai? They already punished me enough, I-I don't want them to punish me more..!"

Aaaah. Okay. So she was the one that they had caught. Well... That makes things awkward. Even if she was currently blushing at how cute Hiro was. It was like she had been regressed, though not to the point where she was her age. Just young enough to be adorable while she cried.

"Well, uh, what do I do then!? If you got captured, then how am I supposed to fight back!?" Mikai cried out, but then the call shut off. All while she slowly started steaming. How mean, how mean, how mean! She didn't know what to do, and nobody was really giving her a chance either..!

She had to think. Before another terrible announcement came in. Okay, so Ganguro were soldiers, Athletes were Nerds, Strong girls were sweet, and Virgos were not Virgins. And she couldn't henshin, or she ended up a spanked princess like Hiro. But... Actually, hold on. They said she couldn't henshin on school grounds, so...

MIkai grinned as she leapt into the air. And while she hung there, for the split second she didn't make contact with the ground, she cried out once more. "HENSHIN!" This time, there was nothing to interrupt her. She got to be as fiery as she needed to be, the flames consuming her as they formed the armor that she loved. The armor that would protect her from the announcements...

"Hey! You broke the rules! That's no fair!" The Speakstress cried out over the intercom, all while she rapidly slammed her hands into a keyboard. Something that was way more audible than it needed to be. "Rule breakers are the enemy of the entire school! Get her! GET HEEEER!"

Just like that, the waves that were powered by her voice spread throughout the school again. And every single student that had been affected by her announcements quickly laser focused on the armored heroine, with Mimoto's flames only intensifying in response. There was no way that she was going to let them overwhelm them. Even if they were her friends!

"KING'S ERUPTION!" Mimoto shouted as she let her flames explode outward. She didn't even try to gather them to the point where they could make a proper localized explosion. She just needed to get rid of them. She needed to burn their influence off them. Even if she was hurting those nerdy girls. Even if she hurt Agatha. Even if she could hear them all cry out as they were forced to hit the ground...

Still, it wasn't a good thing to expend her power like this. And she had the feeling that she had committed a mistake, right as she caught a golden glimpse out of the corner of her eye. A staff coming her way, right when she was winding down..!

Mimoto slammed her fist against the cane that was aimed for her throat, all while she glared from underneath her helmet straight at the golden Jõtaider. "Kanzei! I should've known you were behind something like this! Spider and Bat wouldn't go this far, and they'd all be boys if it was Cobra's fault!"

"Just stay still. You won't get away this time." Kanzei said, all while spinning her cane for a brief second. Letting a few hammer strikes ring out as that cane disappeared bit by bit. "And no matter how bright your flames burn, you won't escape these chains! DIVINE BIND!"

A circle of golden power formed underneath Mimoto, as several golden chains formed from the Jötaider's weapon shot out. One by one clinging to a part of Mimoto's body and forcing her to get down on her knees as her arms were locked behind her back. All while she was forced to stare straight towards the villain that had managed to subdue her. How come she was this strong, anyway!? It wasn't fair!

"Speakstress." Kanzei said, as she turned towards the speaker hanging above them. "You may come out and deliver the announcement that signals her defeat." She stated, all while her hands glowed with that dark and golden power that allowed her to keep MImoto pinned...

Just like that, the speaker pulled herself out of the ceiling, giggling as she had managed to blend in thanks to the nature of her dress. "You really should've looked up, dummy!" Speaktress laughed as she planted her foot right on the girl's helmet. All while she continued to grin and laugh. "Now, I'll make sure that you pay for getting in my Mistress' way. Not a single speck of your stupid self will remain! And I won't turn you into another sobbing brat like the other girl that got in our way!"

Mikai tried to struggle against her binds. She tried to struggle against the foot on her face. But slowly but surely, she heard a fateful few words slip through her ears... And all she could do was accept them, as they were nothing but the truth being announced...

Yes. Her defeat had just been announced. She should just give in and accept it...

"I wonder why Mikai didn't call me..."

Tsubasa was looking at his phone as he headed towards the school on a brand new day. He had been absent due to a bout of sickness. As it turns out, staying up all night and writing at least forty thousand words within 24 hours was... Not a good thing to do. But hey, he got everything done. That's what mattered to him, especially since he had already done his exam a few days ago due to asking for special permission.

But as he slowly pulled his head up from his phone, he was quick to notice the very dramatic changes that happened to his school. For one, it looked like a military base rather than a school. What with all the gyaru and ganguro that were patrolling. In fact... Hold on, that was Agatha wasn't it? Why was she a gyaru and why was she a soldier?!

Tsubasa quickly darted into a bush to make sure that they didn't spot him while he was approaching. But he didn't make it. Not when the bush suddenly burst into flames, taking his clothes with it. Leaving him to cover himself the best he could...

"W-Why'd you... W-Wait, Mikai?!" He cried out as he saw the one that had managed to light him on fire. But it was hard to truly identify her. She was a gyaru like the rest, but... Well, she was wearing a militant's cap that made her look more like Spider. Okay, this was... Well, oh no, he was getting hard...

"No erections allowed on school grounds!" Mikai shouted as she quickly brought forth a flaming whip, slapping it across the perverted nerd's body and forcing her orders to register within him. Which immediately killed his libido. "Late students like you deserve a much greater punishment too! Unfortunately, the glorious Student President is currently absent!" She pouted, all while adjusting her cap...

Wait, Saki was behind this!? But she was a good girl, why would she betray them!?

"Attention, all late students! Masculinity is just a cover for femininity. Embrace your inner selves, and join your fellow students as part of the grand Mimoto Armada!"

Tsubasa heard the announcement ring out, and he couldn't do a thing to fight back against it. Not as his skin immediately tanned. Not as his hair turned nice and blonde, and not as a pair of large breasts burst forth as they were suddenly pushed in by a leotard. Just like the one all the other gyaru soldiers wore...

His mind clicked, and she started saluting just as every inch of masculinity left her. She was now a full-blooded girl, and a proud soldier. Nothing but servitude remained in her mind. Just like nothing but servitude remained in Mikai's, who quickly returned the salute as she was now proud of the soldier...

All while the Speakstress laughed. Yes... Turning everyone into Saki's personal army was definitely an ambitious goal. And what came after that..? Well, it would be announcing Golden Freedom's victory from the very top of Atlas Corp's building, of course! And with this many soldiers, there was no way that they were going to lose!

"ALL SOLDIERS! MOVE OUT AND LAY SIEGE TO THE OPPRESSOR!"
