Tricks and Treats from Clowntopia
Part Four
by Hugo Prosperio

"Woahhhhhh" shouted the latest customer in Chuckles Joke Shop as he watched the room grow larger. Now, he wasn't shrinking, at least not all of him. He had eaten candy from the trick or treat bowl on the counter and seconds later, his head began to shrink. He reached up with his hands and felt his head now half it's original size.

"What was in that candy?" he asked as he felt tingles running through his arms. They started to stretch longer and get thicker, more muscular. His hands grew larger too, matching the new thick arms. His legs got shorter, also thickening up with strong muscle as his feet burst out of his shoes getting longer and wider. Soon his hands touched the ground without him having to bend over, giving him the look of a gorilla or something of a similar build.

"What the hell is happening to me?" he asked as his skin felt cold as it turned white.

"You ate one of the Freaky candies. It turns you into a freaky deaky clown! I think you are quite silly.

"But I don't want to…OW" he said as he lifted up a huge hand to his tiny head. A headache that would have felt normal wracked him with discomfort, and as it did, all his human memories melted away. He forgot about the concert he was on his way to before stopping into the joke shop to kill time, he forgot his boyfriend who he was meeting, he forgot it all, and was now a clown.

Pushing on his hands, he began to swing his body around the room, laughing. Chuckles smiled and waved a wand at the new freak, giving him a new outfit that showed off his huge arms and legs. He wouldn't wear shoes either, but the overall getup was quite silly looking.

"Thanks for letting me browse, but I gots to get back to Clowntopia, scoping out some jobs as a construction worker."

"Don't let me keep you." Chuckles said as the very odd looking clown went into the back and into the portal.

"I'll have to stock up on those candies, they work quite well."

"Yeah, he was fit for a freak show" The balloon squeaked.

The horn above the door honked, and in walked another young man, slightly older than the last customer, but handsome and well built, like he was the captain of a football team at some point.

"Hello and welcome to the Joke Shop, how can I be of assistance?" Chuckles asked.

"Oh, I heard you have costumes." He asked.

"Well that is the word going around yes. And yes, I do. What might you be looking for?" The clown asked.

"Well, my friend Nick had a great costume from here. Looked like a big ball. Figured I'd find something that would be worth wearing here."

"Well, I have something that might suit you quite well. It's actually the easiest costume you'll ever put on."

He held up what looked like a simple belt. He walked over and handed it to the young man.

"Here you are, Don't think I caught your name?" Chuckles said.

"Oh, It's Bill." He said taking the belt from the clown. He strapped it around his waist and fastened it, and then looked down. "That's it?" he asked.

"See the cord on the side?" Chuckles asked. Bill looked down and saw a pull cord like one might see on a life vest or something to quickly inflate it.

"Just pull."

Bill looked down and took the cord in hand and gave it a yank. The cord came out and The belt instantly changed. In a flash of colors, it became a very big pink tutu. In the change, it had removed his pants and boxers, leaving him in a pair of pink panties. He gasped loudly as the clothing changes rushed upwards changing his shirt into a one piece leotard, merging with the panties.
"What is this, some sort of joke." Bill asked nervously.

"Well, you are in a joke shop." Chuckles laughed as the man before him began to morph visibly. His body became smaller, softer, hips widening, waist pulling in, legs shortening and becoming shapely.  His chest went from well cut to soft as they pushed out into actual breasts.

"Tits!" he shrieked as he grabbed them with smaller delicate fingers. He felt his face shifting and his Adam's apple disappearing. Soon his hair shot out from the back of of his head growing shoulder length.

"Turn me back." He gasped as he felt one last change, a tucking in of a very personal part in his groin. "NO!" he shouted as his voice went up quite a bit, and then he was no longer…he.

The girl looked herself over and then looked at Hugo with anger in her eyes. "This is wrong. You'll pay for this!"

"Hey you wanted a good costume. I doubt anyone will recognize the former quarterback looking like this." He laughed.

She looked around, and noticed another pull cord on the tutu. "Oh thank god." She said as she gripped it and pulled, thinking it would reverse things.

The cord pulled and her body began to change even more.

"WHAT!" she gasped as her butt inflated as did her belly, getting larger. She was getting fatter in her costume, which stretched to fit. As she grew her skin grew a pink shade slightly lighter than her costume. She could barely speak as she grew larger and larger, her face thickening, adding a new chin. Her arms looked rather plump as they hung out without any clothing. She then felt her feet growing larger, not just with fat, but in size.

"What the hell are you doing to me?" she shrieked.

"You came into a clown's joke store and wanted a custome. I do clowns. Wait, that sounded naughty." Chuckles laughed. "No, I mean, clowns are my thing, and soon, they will be yours too!" he added.

A strange feeling in the back of her head said this was alright, and actually rather fun. She looked down at her feet as a pair of large ballerina slippers formed around the huge tootsies. She wiggled her hips as she started to get into the spirit.

"Oh my, I have such a big bum." She giggled as she slapped it, causing it to jiggle. She then shook her head "What is wrong with me?!"
"Your mind is adjusting to fit the costume, happens all the time, trust me."

"But I don't' want to be a…boring human…NO! I DON'T WANT TO BE A CLOWN." She screamed.

"I don't know if I believe you, dear. What do you want. Just tell me honestly, and I'll make it happen." He said as he looked at her.
Her mind wanted to scream "Make me Human!" But her voice said something entirely different.

"I want to be a silly willy clowny-wowney."

"Done." He said taking out his magic wand and bopping her on the head. Her hair twirled up into two red braids, becoming a yarn like texture like Raggedy Ann's hair. Her lips were surrounded by a white muzzle as her lips turned red as her hair. Then, her eyes got white as well and some purple lines going up them. Her lashes grew and she fluttered her eyes as her mind finished adjusting and she smiled wide showing off enlarged but straight teeth.

"Well, golly, Thanks for the ballerina outfit. I've always wanted to be a pretty ballerina" she said as she twirled, her body jiggling. As she did this, her skirt flew up, showing off her butt. "Oh My." She gasped as she saw Chuckles looking.

"Oh, don't mind me. I just enjoy a good clown dance." He smirked.

"Well, I have to get to the party soon or else." She said.

"Yes, and let me know how it goes, Willa."

"Oh, but of course, Mr. Chuckles." She said as she went out the door.

"Oh, hehe, I liked that one a lot" The balloon said, "Oh my, I think being inflated for so long is effecting my head."

"That'll happen." Chuckles said with a smirk.

The house for the costume party was large. The girl throwing it lived with her aunt and uncle who were quite rich and were also out of the town for the week. The whole mansion they owned was hers to do what she wanted. She made sure to invite only the coolest people she knew to the party, and she was surprised when she saw a car pull up, smaller than any car she had seen, and outstepped a very odd looking James and Heather.

"Katie! We made it!" Jimmy said with a huge doofy grin. "Do you like our costumes?"

"Uh, yeah, they are silly" she said as she looked her friends over. The wide load on James looked almost real. She was tempted to grab it and pinch, but she didn't.

Moments later, another pear shaped clown costume showed up. "Oh, hi Kate. You like?"

"Oh, Jemma. Nice. Clowns seem to be in tonight."

"That's good. Clowns are awesome." She said as she waddled into the mansion.

Soon another couple arrived, one Katie didn't even know were dating. She saw Ken get out of the car in a clown costume. "What is with the clowns." She said curiously as his costume expanded into a ball shape in an instant. He opened the door and out stepped a girl she didn't recognize, a large girl in a pink ballerina costume.

"Hey Ken." Katie said.

"Oh, hiya. Call me Bounce. This is my new girlfriend Willa." He said introducing the ballerina.

"Nice to meet you. Head on inside. Drinks and food are all set up."

"I am famished. Thanks." Willa said as she rubbed her large belly.

"So let me get this straight. If I eat this candy, I'll turn into something else." A girl in her late twenties said to the man in front of her, dressed as a clown.

"Well, you don't have to believe me, but you did ask what the catch was." Chuckles laughed.

"Well, I meant about the free candy, but now you are giving me this malarkey about magical candy." She said as she unwrapped a piece and popped it into her mouth. "I guess it is Halloween. Everyone is entitled to one good story." She said as she sucked on the candy.
"Odd flavor. Like soda." She said. Suddenly the candy began to crackle in her mouth. "Oh, pop rock. Nice." She said as she felt the snapping and cracking increase. Suddenly she felt like she was swallowing a large amount of soda, but she could breath and talk.

"This is…interesting" she said, unware that her belly was sloshing full of liquid, growing larger and saggier with each second. Her butt was growing too, and soon the two were moving down towards the floor. As they did, her legs shortened, getting smaller as her body grew larger. Her upper half remained unchanged as she continued to suck on the candy. She then swallowed the remains with a hiccup.

"Ooops." She said with a laugh. "Well, I don't see any magic, but thanks for the…candy." She said stopping as an odd feeling filled her. She then went to speak again, but instead, she let out a room shaking burp. With this, her entire body seemingly turned white, and colors formed on her face, creating ornate shapes. She burped again, her lips inflating this time, getting super plump as well as curling into a grin. Her hair changed too, becoming orange, poofing out into a large fro.

"Okay, I do admit I feel a little weird" she said, with another burp. This caused her neck to swell and join with her head. If one were to describe her shape, she now looked like a gourd of some sort. Her arms pulled in up to the elbows and she flapped them around, still not aware of what had happened. She then felt her belly rumble and another burp came out. Her nose grew longer and larger puffing out into a long green tube. Her feet began to stretch and grow larger, and soon she looked like the oddest clown Chuckles had seen in a while. She burped again, and let out a giggle that sounded way different from the girl who had just entered. "Silly Chuckles. I am still the same clown I was before eating that candy." She said patting her sloshing belly.

"Sorry, Wobbles. Must have been mistaken about that candy. You will forgive me, I hope." She said.

"Oh of course" she said, not noticing the clown waving his want to repair her stretched clothes into a pair of pants that fit her wide bottom with suspender straps over a clowny t-shirt with zig zag designes. He left her barefoot for now, linking the way her large toes looked with the strange design the candy had given the girl. She worked her way to the back room and Chuckles followed, watching her walk through the portal.

"Not a change at all, my dear." He laughed. "Just a trick."
