Michael Walker was a typical seven-year-old boy in the year 2020. Born on May 4th, 2013, he stood at an average height of 4'0" and weighed 50 pounds. His short, messy brown hair framed his hazel eyes, which he'd inherited from his mom, and his pale skin often glowed with the energy and innocence of youth. Today, he wore his favorite superhero t-shirt featuring Captain America, denim shorts, and his trusty sneakers, ready to tackle the grocery store with his mother.
His mother, Emily Walker, was a young woman of 25, having given birth to Michael when she was just 18. She stood at 5'6" and weighed around 130 pounds. Her long chestnut hair was pulled back into a casual ponytail, and her green eyes bore the spark of determination that motherhood often brings. Emily was dressed in a simple yet practical outfit: a floral sundress paired with sturdy sandals, a necessity given the unpredictable times they lived in.
The year 2020 had turned nightmarish with the outbreak of the zombie pandemic. Life had become a constant battle between moments of reprieve and sudden horror. Grocery trips were no exception, requiring vigilance and quick reflexes at any sign of danger.
“Stay close, Michael,” Emily called, pushing a shopping cart cautiously down the canned goods aisle. The store seemed calm, but everyone knew that could change in an instant.
Michael wandered a few steps away, fascinated by the colorful cereal boxes displayed on the shelves. His mother’s voice, though familiar and comforting, was distant in his preoccupation.
Suddenly, the calm broke. The store’s intercom crackled before a terrified voice screamed, “Zombies! They’re in the store!”
Pandemonium erupted as customers abandoned their carts and ran toward the exits. Emily seized Michael’s hand, her heart pounding. “Michael, follow me! Don’t let go!”
They darted down the aisles, navigating through the chaos. Near the dairy section, a Spanish woman came into Michael’s line of sight. She was older, perhaps over 50, but her striking appearance made her stand out. Her name was Consuela Martinez, born on June 15, 1970, in Argentina. Standing at 5'4" and weighing about 150 pounds, her dark hair was styled in loose waves that cascaded down her back. She wore a skimpy red dress that clung to her curves and shiny platform sandals that seemed more suited for a beach party than a zombie apocalypse. Her nails were painted a dazzling shade of gold, matching the opulence of her attire.
Consuela's dress had thin spaghetti straps and was detailed with sequins that caught the light. Her sandals were strappy and adorned with little gemstones, their platform base giving her an extra two inches of height. Draped over her shoulder was a small designer purse, exclusively packed with essentials: lipstick, a compact mirror, car keys with a fluffy pom-pom, a pack of mints, and a photo of her grandchildren. She also wore six pieces of jewelry—dangling gold earrings with ruby accents, a matching gold bracelet, a delicate chain necklace, and three anklets that jingled softly with every step.
As Michael and Emily ran past Consuela, the woman seemed to hesitate before looking down at herself with a sassy grin. “¡Ay, niño precioso! Imagine switching bodies!” she said flirtatiously, reaching out for Michael.
Michael tried to avoid her grasp, but her fingers momentarily brushed his skin. Instantly, he felt dizzy. Everything went black.
When Michael opened his eyes again, he felt odd. He was taller, for one. Looking down, he saw tanned skin and the sparkly red dress instead of his familiar superhero t-shirt. His hands, now adorned with gold-painted nails, held a purse. Panic set in as he heard the groans of fast-approaching zombies.
Struggling to walk in the platform sandals, Michael consistently lost his balance. He almost toppled over several times, but through sheer determination, he managed to get far away from the danger. When he finally caught his breath and looked down at his hands and body, confusion and terror filled his mind.
He found a mirror and nearly passed out at the unfamiliar reflection staring back at him. The eyes were now dark and piercing, a stark contrast to his usual hazel ones that mirrored his mom’s. He touched his new face, trying to make the eyes look “normal” again, but to no avail. The unfamiliar lashes fluttered as he blinked, attempting to adjust them to his liking. He toyed nervously with his new cheeks, lips, and nose, but nothing changed.
Michael then turned his attention to his hair, trying to make it look less girly. He gathered it all and twisted it into a makeshift ponytail, using the purse strap to tie it up, giving him a momentary sense of control. Desperate, he tugged at the first piece of jewelry, the dangling earrings, but the clasps were too intricate. His trembling fingers couldn’t secure a grip on the delicate hooks.
Next, he fiddled with the bracelet, a gold band with a clasp mechanism he couldn’t figure out. His long nails only made it harder, and he gave up in frustration. The anklets were just as tricky—each had tiny, complicated latches that seemed impossible to open without proper tools. He tried to slide them off his ankles but they were too tight.
Determined, he moved on to the necklace. Its slender chain required a deftness he didn’t possess. He pulled, twisted, and even tried to break it with sheer force, but it refused to budge.
The skimpy red dress was no easier. First, he tugged at the straps, hoping they’d tear loose but the fabric was surprisingly resilient. He then attempted to shimmy out of it, but the snug fit and sequined material made it impossible. Pulling it over his head, he found, was not an option either, as the dress wouldn’t stretch enough. Even trying to unzip it from the back proved futile; the zipper was stuck firm.
When Michael finally turned his attention to the sandals, four unsuccessful attempts left him feeling helpless. The intricate buckles and straps, designed for style rather than ease, resisted his frantic efforts. He tried to unbuckle them with his new, uncooperative nails, pull them off forcefully, and even twist his feet out, but nothing worked. His final resort was to loosen the straps by pushing them through the belt loops, but the effort only tightened the fit.
Beside himself, Michael attempted to scrape off the nail polish from his fingers and toes, but the glossy finish remained impeccable. His frustration reached a peak as he suddenly jerked forward, stumbling in the sandals, feeling a bizarre sensation compelling him to walk perfectly. He unwillingly put one foot in front of the other with grace, but he quickly regained his balance and control.
He tried to talk, his voice coming out sassy and flirtatious. “Mommy, mĂrame! Look at this! I can’t believe this! Ay Dios, why is this happening? Mommyyyyy!” The words and tone were foreign, a mix of Spanish female flirtatiousness and his own bewilderment.
In the midst of a zombie apocalypse, Michael found himself trapped in the body of Consuela Martinez, confused and terrified, struggling to understand this bizarre twist of fate.
