Kari continued. “The length of
time between the switches seems to lengthen each time. Right now, we
could go back to our room and have sex, but we wouldn’t change.”
“What if I were to touch you?”
Brandy asked her.
“That’s an idea,” Kari told
her. “We could try it.”
Brandy and Kari both removed their
gloves, and Brandy reached out to touch Kari. While it was plain to
see, Kari did not move her hand toward the other woman, it was not
her that changed. Instead, Brandy changed back into her old self.
As soon as the change had completed,
both Brandy and Ralf started to convulse, as if they were in pain.
Quickly, I reached out to touch Brandy’s hand. Once more, she
started to reform. She became a woman very quickly. Once it was
done, however, she seemed extremely weak. I suppose I would be as
well, had I changed twice like that. I watched as she took one last
breath, and that was it. She died.
We had no time for grief, however,
because there was obviously a bond between Brandy and Ralf. His
convulsions started in earnest. He let out a scream, whether of
grief or pain, I wasn’t sure, then he collapsed. He too was dead.
