This is an erotic horror story with transgender characters, transformations,mind control, reluctant sex and crossdressing. It also touches on transphobia. It's not meant to represent witches or anything seriously, it's just for fun.
I'm Brad, I'm 25 and I work in comic book store, smack bang in the middle of my home town. My life hasn't been the most exciting so far, but I don't have things too bad. I live alone in a 3 room apartment, and whilst I don't have a girlfriend or anything like that, I like to think hope is on the horizon. I'm kind of a big guy, dark hair and macho looking, I don't work out I just look the part.
The comic book store had been my life for a few years now, since leaving school, my home town was a black hole I couldn't get out of, a little bubble where the outside world was too far away to go and see, so it was just easier to stay where I was. I'd turn up every day and sit at the desk opposite Steve; a scrawny guy that had been here as long as I had, he handled inventory and I just worked the register. I didn't own the store, the guy who did was some old man who lived just outside of town, Steve would call him up and keep him up to date on a regular basis. The owner was some big time collector who sent us shipments now and then. The store itself was small but we'd get more foot traffic than you'd expect in a nowhere town like this, because it was either going to the cinema, sitting at home on the internet or reading comic books.
So one day I'm leaning back in my chair and we're both listening to some weird music Steve brought in whilst some girl and this fat dude are walking around looking at stuff. I don't really care if customers read the books while I'm sitting there, I'm not the comic book police. The fat guy eventually leaves, but the girl comes up to the counter with this stack of comic's, she's kinda cute, goth vibe, long black hair, very tall and slender. She had a huge pair of black boots on and some black lace getup that contrasted perfectly against her soft pale white skin. She could be the front girl for a goth band or something, she looked great.
Steve eye's up her stack and gives me a look like what she's got there is a big haul, I sit up in my chair and start running the books through one by one and it ends up like $87, I'm surprised anyone spends that much on books, hell, Steve is going have a hard time explaining to the old man that this isn't a typo on the receipts.
"Card or cash?" I say as she searches her purse.
"Card." she said briefly handing me a battered piece of plastic. I check the name on it and it says "Mr. Mason."
"Is this your boyfriends card?" I have to ask, we don't accept borrowed cards in here and for this amount of books, it's straight up suspicious.
"No... that's me." she says, clearly embarrassed. What? Is this girl? Wait is this... not a girl? I look down to her chest and there's definitely some large lumps in there.
"Mister Mason?" I say, still staring at her chest. She looks annoyed, I'm still confused.
"Yes, I'm transgender, I've not had my cards changed yet." She explains it clearly, but I can't believe what I'm seeing here.
"Oh... yeah sorry... Mr. Mason... uh we can't accept that in here right now..." I look at Steve and he looks kind of disappointed in me, I'm totally confused.
"I'm not Mr. Mason any more, do I need to give you ID or something?" She awkwardly replies, pulling out an old wallet from her purse and putting a picture of a young guy next to her face for comparison.
"Yeah, um, Mr.. I mean Miss Mason, sorry I'm just not sure I can do that for someone like you.", I really don't want to deal with this.
"Someone like me?" she snarled, gripping her purse tightly.
"Look, I don't know what you are right now and I don't know how to explain it to the cops if you stole that card... so..."
"STOLE the card?! You think I stole this? And what do you mean "What you are?" I'm human, you jerk!" she's yelling now, I'm not having this.
"Look, just get out the store I'm not dealing with this today!" I say, standing up and pointing to the exit.
She huffs and says "Asshole..." as she storms out the store, leaving the books on the desk.
Steve looks at me with disappointment.
"What? I can't verify who she is!" I say defensively.
"You're a real dickhead Brad, don't you know who that is?" he says, oh great, they were something important weren't they.
"I don't even know what that is dude," I'm so done with this today.
"That girl is part of that witches coven thing." he whispers, looking around him.
"Come the fuck on Steve, witches? Are you fucking kidding me? It was dressed like a goth cos it probably listens to the same bullshit music you do." I said leaning back in my chair again. Steve sighed heavily.
"Look man, I wouldn't go round pissing them off anyway and can you stop calling her "it"? The monster from the black lagoon was an "it", that was a girl, don't be an ass." He was getting preachy, I fucking hated listening to Steve go off on one at me. I nodded and put my headphones in to drown out him and his weirdo music. I smiled at him as he kept on talking until he realised I couldn't hear him, then he got up and walked into the back room and got on with inventory checking or whatever he did back there.
The day passed kinda slow after that, we had a few sales but nothing really interesting happened, I did feel kinda bad, $87 would have been the best sale we've had all year. But, come on, really? Witches? There's no such thing! Steve was full of shit. It was probably someone bullshitting me to get as much out of a stolen bank card as they could.
Steve always left early and he didn't say anything to me when he left today, but whatever man, fuck him, it's my turn on the CD player tomorrow and he can sit there and listen to my stuff all day. It hit 9pm and I closed up shop. It was the middle of winter, it was cold and dark and the streets at night were always deserted, no one really went out at night around here, the nightlife was pretty dead, the only place you went to at this time was your own home or someone else's to hook up or whatever. I locked the door and turned around to see someone standing on the opposite side of the road, just staring at me. It was too dark to see who it was but they were tall and looked like they were wearing a robe or dress... it had to be that weirdo from earlier.
"Look man, give it a rest, you want those comic books, bring in a real card and show me some ID that matches your face." I shouted at the figure. It just stood there, motionless. This was weird, I didn't like it. I turned around and decided I'd walk home, quickly. Looking back, the figure disappeared from view when I turned down my street, but I couldn't shake the feeling of being watched.
I got home and climbed the stairs up to my place, shut the door and locked it. I'd never really seen anything like this in town before, I'd lived here my whole life but this was kinda freaky. I sat down on my bed and stared into the mirror I had propped up against the wall. Lightning flashed outside and a few seconds later a loud rumble shook the place and for a second, I thought I saw someone outside my window... which was on the fourth floor. Fuck this, I pulled the blinds down over my window, I was going nuts. I wrapped myself up in my bed and listened to rain tapping against the window until I fell asleep.
