The Midtown Mall Food Court.
Midday, Saturday.

A table in the corner sat 2 friends: Paul & Mitchell. They weren’t the most popular guys in school but weren’t totally outcasts. They were on the nerdy side of things but being kind of nerdy was in this year so they were mid range popularity. Paul had been summoned to the mall via text message from Mitchell because he had something he wanted to show him. He wouldn’t say what.

“So…. What is this mystery item you wanted to show me?” Paul asked before he took a big sip from his mid sized soda drink that he had gotten from the Banana Julia stand.

“This!” Mitchell said as he placed a small device on the table.

The device was a rectangular in shape. Looked a bit like a knock off iPod: centralized small screen on top of the device.  Buttons, knobs & switches below the screen. Poking out of the top was a small antenna.

“And that is?” Paul asked questioning.

“Not sure. The guy at Podcast Shed said it was a Swapper & from what I could tell from his sales pitch to me is that it could swap stuff around.”

“What kind of stuff?”

“Body parts mainly. He told me that he has one that he uses with his girlfriend to experience things as her during & I quote the art of love making.”

Both of them physically tried to shake any & all mental images of what might of meant.

“While I was waiting for you, I was looking at the manual & it seems rather straight forward.  Mess around with the settings & point & shoot.”

“So…” Paul asked. “That’s all you wanted to tell me? You could have done that over text. I was playing the new multiplayer campaign in World of Fantasy XIV: Nuclear Fallout Remastered Edition!”

“Would you have believed me?” Mitchel asked, with one eyebrow raised & a questioning look on his face.

“no.” Paul said as a few seconds hesitation.  “But you could have still told me via Text!”

“I know. That’s not as fun. So… you wanna try it out?”

“What?” Paul said a bit loudly, enough for a few people to turn their heads in his direction.

“Yeah! We’ve got a whole food court filled with people. The world is our swapper smorgasbord just waiting for us to take a bite! What should we do first?”

“I don’t know, Mitchell. This seems wrong somehow. Plus how do you know if it’ll even work.”

“I already tried it!”

“WHAT?” Paul said a bit loudly, enough for a few more people to turn their heads in his direction.

“yeah. I had to test it out! Plus you were taking too long to get her.”

“I had to get to save point & the boss I was fighting was being a jerk about not just dying.”

“Which boss?”

“Uhgarth the Unkillable!”

“I can see why he just wouldn’t die for you.” Mitchell said with a chuckle.

Paul rolled his eyes & looked around the food court see if he see anything out of the ordinary. I wasn’t find anything that seemed out of place.”

“So… what did you swap around?” Paul asked.

Mitchell had a shocked look on his face. “You don’t see what I swapped around?”

“No.” Paul said as he continued to look around a bit.

Mitchell let out a big sigh & then pointed over to a young couple & their child. The Father undone his top & was breast feeding his child. Paul couldn’t tell which parent the child looked more like. One thing he noticed was the kid hadn’t gotten a hair cut in a while. Around the couple’s feet, on a leash was their puppy.

“So… what did you swap? Looks like a normal family to me.”

“WHAT?” Mitchell said loudly, this time the people who had turned their heads around were looking it him now.

“I swapped the bodies of their child & their dog. I also give the guy his wife’s tits!”

Paul looked back over at the them & didn’t noticed any bodies swapped around. The Kid still looked any normal kid: super long floppy ears, a snout like any other kid, a tail. Nothing weird or different about him. The Guy didn’t look weird or mismatched. He looks like always had those tits. Plus his wife would look weird if she had her husband’s tits! That he would have noticed!

“no… Nothing looks odd or out of place about them. You sure that’s the couple you swapped! Maybe it’s a different couple sitting last the same table.”

“They have their newborn baby naked, on the floor & on leash while he’s breastfeed their dog! That’s not normal!” Mitchell said, quite agitated.

Paul turns back to couple to really see if he could see anything out of the ordinary about them & was failing to see anything beyond a normal family out at the mall.

He turns back & says “Sorry, Dude. I just don’t see it. You sure you did anything to them?”

“YES!” Mitchell said angrily “I swapped them just a few minutes before you showed up.”

Paul shrugs “If you say so. I don’t see it.”

Mitchell lets out a primal scream & hits the table with his fists. As he does that, everything on the table shakes around. The swapping device bounces around & falls on the floor. As Mitchell leaned over to pick it up, there was a low humming noise for a few seconds & he heard a Ping noise. Once he found the device on the floor, he looked at the device’s screen which had an alert window displayed which said SWAPS COMPLETE.

“crap.” Mitchell said under his breath.

“What was that?” Paul asked.

Mitchell look over, expecting to see Paul’s legs but they were sitting their across from him. There sitting with their legs splay apart were a pair of very feminine legs. They had a short tartan mini skirt on, on full display were their panties which had Deadpool riding a winged pastel color pony over a rainbow.

“Shit!” Mitchell said as he went to raise his head but he had forgotten that his head was still under the table & he hit his head with a loud THUNK!

He raised his body back into an up right position, as he rubbed his head he looked across the table at Paul or he at least assumed it was still Paul. They had Paul’s head, the same mannerisms. But everything below his neck was definitely not Pauls’. He wore a severely low cut top which put his newly acquired cleavage on display. His new breasts protruded a few inches from his chest & sat directly on the table.  The rest of Paul was also quite female. He has long pointed fingernails which were painted pitch black.

If Mitchell could block out Paul’s face, he could see that Paul now had Margo’s body. The device must have swapped their body because he did remember seeing her walk by earlier.

“What?” Paul asked.

“uh…. Dude, you got Tits!” Mitchell replied.

“Yeah. What else is new? I’ve had these things… “Paul said as he grab ahold of Margo’s tits with her hands & gave them a bit of squeeze “… since 8th grade. They were part of my growth spur over the summer that year.”

“No. You grew a foot over that summer!”

“Yeah! Grew a foot in height & few other places, too.” Paul said with a chuckle. “These ridiculous sized tits & this rocking ass!”

Paul turned to side & gave Margo’s former back end a slap.

“That’s Margo’s body!”

Paul’s left eyebrow raised up slightly as he got a puzzled look on his face. “what?”

“Yeah! When I dropped the swapper thing it went off. It must of swapped you & Margo’s bodies.”

Paul looked down at his body & then up at Mitchell “You think this is Margo’s body?”

“Yes!”

“Why would she have a dude’s body? She’s a girl!”

“I know! You have a girl’s body right now. The device swapped your body with Margo!”

“No, it didn’t. This is the body I’ve always had!”

“No, it isn’t!” Mitchell said as he pulled out his phone. “Let me show you!”

He goes to look through his photos but everyone he can find with him & Paul show him the same thing: Paul has Margo’s body in every one.

Mitchell start looking around for Margo, she should be that hard to spot: she’d be the girl with a guy’s body.

As he looking around, Paul says “So… you're telling me that’s really my body over there?”

Paul points & Mitchell turns to look & see where he was pointing. Mitchell did see Margo in a large group, what he did not see was Paul’s body attracted to Margo’s head. Margo’s head was attached to another body.

“no. That’s not your body.” Mitchell said with a hint of sadness to his voice.

“Then whose body do you think Margo has because it look the same as it’s always been to me.”

“Margo now had Brad’s body.”

“Really? You think the head cheerleader now has the body of the head quarterback?”

“yes.”

“Really?” Paul asked again.

“YES!” Came Mitchell’s angry reply.

“I don’t see how you expect our school to have won any games. She doesn’t exactly have the kind of body that I think is exactly the kind of one for football. Maybe Gymnastics, not Football.”

Mitchell looked over Margo. She stood at 6’4” & looked every bit the quarterback that Bard normally was, at least from the neck down.

“Really?” Mitchell asked as he looked back over at Paul.

Mitchell keeps forgetting about Paul’s new body each time he looks away so every time he looks back he’s a big shocked at the body that Paul has on display.

“Yeah! Most Quarterbacks don’t have such feminine bodies. They are normally super tall jocks with muscles that have muscles but Margo doesn’t look like that.

“She’s taller then everyone else in that group!”

“So? Margo has always been taller then everyone else.”

“What about her muscle bound physique?”

“Yeah. She works out. But so does everyone else over there!”

Mitchell turns back to see if he can see Brad, maybe he has Paul’s body. But he soon found out that he did not as he saw Margo raise Brad up onto her left arm as he sat there. Brad now had the body of one of the other cheerleaders. Mitchell let out a small laugh as he now say a person who had made so much of his life a living hell to have such a different body. Brad would most likely still be a jerk to him & would punch him in the face if he ever told him that Brad that he had the body of a cheerleader.

Mitchell looked around the rest of the group gathered around Brad & Margo to see that everyone in that group had something swapped around. Some people had mismatched lower bodies, some had swapped heads. A few of them swapped hair styles which was quite funny to see a few girls with buzzcuts & a few of the guys with pigtails & ponytails. Some had specific parts swapped around. It was quite funny to see one of the cheerleaders to have the arms of a cheerleader & the lower body of one of her teammates.

One football player & cheerleader couple just had their faces swapped which made from a quite odd display. Especially when the football player who now had his girlfriend’s body tried to intimidate someone else as his much larger & stronger girlfriend hid behind him.

“Found my body yet?” Paul asked.

“Not yet.”

“Maybe because I’ve had it the whole time?” Paul said with a hint of condescension in his voice.

Just then something bumped into the table which caused the device bounce around. It did the same low pitched hum & Ping noise.

“Oh… I’m sorry.” Paul said. “It’s sometimes hard to drive these things around.” Making reference to large baby stroller he had in front of him.

“It’s ok. No harm done.” The lady who was seated at the table with her son said.

Paul didn’t quite understand why he Son was pressed how he was. He was much too young to be out dressed in such a low cut crop top showing off some much of his chest. But thought it would be rude to make such a comment to the woman.

Paul moved forward a bit & looked into his stroller. “You ok?”

Mitchell turned his head up towards Pauls’ “Yeah. I’m ok.”

He glad to have such a friend like Paul. Him going out to the mall by himself would be almost impossible. He just doesn’t understand why everything has always seemed so much larger for them then it seems to be other people his age. He glad that Paul has a minivan & doesn’t mind carting him around in a stroller.

“You ready to go? I’m thinking we go back to my house, get you something to drink & then put you down for a nap. Sound good to you?”

Mitchell nods.

Paul apologizes again to the woman & her son as He & then Mitchell walk off for the exit.

Just after he does, he hears a Pinging sound & turns back around. He then thinks “I could have sworn it was a woman & her son. Not 2 girls, the one in the low cut top is kind of hot.”

THE END?
