It was a cool autumn day in 2020, as Michael and his mother, Jane, navigated the aisles of their local grocery store. Michael, who had just celebrated his 7th birthday on September 1st, 2013, was 4 feet tall and weighed 60 pounds. His auburn hair was neatly cut into a short, practical style that matched his spirited personality. With his blue eyes wide open with curiosity, he clung to his mother's side. Today, he wore a vibrant blue T-shirt with a dinosaur print, cargo shorts, and sneakers.
Jane, only 26 years old, had given birth to Michael when she was just 19, on February 14th, 1994. She stood at 5 feet 5 inches and weighed 130 pounds, her brown hair tied up in a messy bun with a few loose strands framing her face. Her hazel eyes darted around alertly, staying vigilant for any threats as she scanned the store shelves. She wore a simple T-shirt, jeans, and sturdy running shoes—an outfit utilitarian enough to make a quick escape in case of a sudden outbreak.
As they picked up some canned goods, a tremor of tension rippled through the store. Jane instinctively tightened her grip on Michael's hand. Suddenly, panicked screams echoed through the aisles, and the unmistakable groans of zombies infiltrated the air.
"Michael! Stay close behind me!" Jane shouted, her voice tight with urgency. She held her son's hand and started to run, weaving through the aisles, every instinct honed on protecting her child.
Michael, taking short, rapid breaths, tried his best to keep up with his mother. As they rounded a corner, a group of five black women entered Michael's view. They were an eye-catching sight: all of them wearing skimpy, form-fitting outfits that revealed their long, toned legs and accentuated their curves. Each of them carried small, fashionable purses slung casually over their shoulders, and they wore sandals with delicate straps that wrapped around their ankles.
The women were:
1. **Brianna**, the oldest at 36 years old, born on March 3rd, 1984, stood 5 feet 7 inches tall, weighing 140 pounds with wavy chestnut hair and brown eyes. She hailed from Detroit, Michigan.
2. **Latrice**, 29 years old, born on June 15th, 1991, 5 feet 8 inches tall, 135 pounds with short, curly black hair and green eyes, originally from Miami, Florida.
3. **Keisha**, 27 years old, born on October 22nd, 1992, 5 feet 6 inches tall, 130 pounds with long, straight black hair and dark brown eyes, from Houston, Texas.
4. **Monique**, 25 years old, born on August 9th, 1995, 5 feet 9 inches tall, 145 pounds with shoulder-length braids and light brown eyes, from Los Angeles, California.
5. **Ayesha**, 23 years old, born on December 4th, 1996, 5 feet 6 inches tall, 130 pounds with a short pixie cut and hazel eyes, from Chicago, Illinois.
They had met each other through a mutual friend, and today they had decided to shop for their upcoming night out, hence the daring fashion choices. As the group strutted past, their attitudes radiated confidence and a hint of indifference to the growing chaos. Brianna, dressed in a barely-there sequined dress that shimmered with every step, reached out instinctively as she saw Michael rushing past.
"Hey, careful!" she exclaimed, her hand grazing Michael's arm. Suddenly, a wave of nausea overtook him. His vision blurred, and he heard a woman's voice somewhere near him shout, "Oh hell no, ni**** got me fucked up!"
Michael's world spun violently before going black. When he awoke, he felt different—taller, heavier. He looked down and gasped in horror. His small, boyish body was gone, replaced by Brianna's mature curves. He was now wearing her sequined dress, with polished nails gleaming on his dainty, feminine fingers.
"Oh my god, Mom! What's going on?" Michael's voice cried out, unwillingly spoken with Brianna's accent, every word tinged with her confident drawl. He could feel panic surging even as he tried to kick off the skimpy sandals with their delicate straps.
"Brianna, we need to get out of here!" One of the women, Latrice, shouted as she grabbed Michael's new female hands, pulling him along. Keisha chimed in sassily, "Girl, you need to pay more attention! You almost got us zombie-fied!"
"Seriously, Brianna, how can you be so clueless sometimes?" Monique added while still running, her voice both critical and mocking. "You're our best friend, but please keep up!"
"I'm scared," Michael found himself saying, using words to describe the new sensations of Brianna's body he couldn't fully understand. "These curves... oh my god," he cried, the accent foreign yet unsettlingly natural.
Rushing through the chaos, the women finally ducked into an alleyway, limbs shaking. "Are you alright, Brianna? Ooh girl, you look so fine. I love your pedicure! You really representing Detroit loud and proud, baby," Ayesha said, running her hands over what she assumed was her friend's familiar form.
Michael found himself compelled to respond, "Ni****, thank you." He mirrored Ayesha's actions, his hands exploring her body in return, some primal, ingrained response taking over. Finally, he managed to kick off the sandals and saw Brianna’s well-maintained, painted toes for the first time. Gagging with repulsion, he reached out to scratch off the nail polish, only to be met with futility.
He was stuck in this body, trapped in Brianna's world, completely alien and overwhelming. And as the chaos of the grocery store echoed back faintly, he could only hope his mom was safe.

It was a new reality—one Michael wasn't sure he could ever escape.
