Are you sure this will help me get the boy I want?", Sarah asks. "Of course, my dear. I guarantee it.", the old man replied. "Bye", Sarah chirps, opening the front door and leaving. "Yes, you'll get the boy, but you may not like it.", the old man says, as he closes the door. The sign Spells R Us blinks out. Part One "Ugh! that's bitter!", Sarah exclaimed as she drank down a foul smelling liquid from a marine blue bottle. "Well it will be worth it if I can get Carl to like me. I hope that old Man at the mall is right.", she says walking into the bathroom, closing the door and walking up to the mirror. Sarah strips down until she is wearing nothing at all. She nestles them in her hands, admiring them. She had blossom over the summer and was extremely proud of them. "Well I had to wait till I was almost 18 to get these babies, but it was worth it. Now I'll show Teresa who's going to get Carl", she says smiling in the mirror. "What the hell?", she exclaimed moving closer to the mirror. She smiles again. She was right. Her cuspids were longer. As she watched, she thought she could see them get longer. "What's happening to me.", she gasps. Suddenly her hands starts to itch. She lifts them up to her eyes and notices some very fine fur growing out of them. "Oh my god. What have I done to Meow." She looks back up at the mirror. Her nose looks a little flatter and darker. Her pupils have started growing in to slits. And was that her...ears sticking out? She pulls her hair back to reveal that her ears had grown pointed and had a slight fuzz on them as well. "Oh no. No. No. No. No. No.", she cries Then she felt a tug at the base of her spine. She twists herself so she could look at her back in the mirror. It was a little stubby thing that was rapidly lengthening. In horror she watched as it grew to 4 feet in length and then stop. She felt a twinge on her chest and stomach. She turned at look at her chest and she saw little teats forming. She also noticed that her breast looked slightly smaller and were covered in a light fuzz as well. "Please stop. I don't want to be a whatever it is i'meow", she cries in dispair. The fur had completely covered her hands, and her fingernails were growing as her fingers shrunk. The fur, a light gray with black spots, was starting to move up her arm. As she watched in horror, unable to turn away she felt her ears start to move up her head. When she was finally able to look, she saw that her ears were on top of her head, gray with black tops. It was then that her hair feel out and land in a pile around her. But her scalp didn't stay bald for long, as within moments, fur started to pop out on her head. She ran to the door, but her...paws couldn't open it. She gave up, hissing at it and slinked back to the mirror. She looks at herself with the morbid curiosity you look at a car wreck. Her nose was completely black and was starting to push away from her face. Her breast were barely there anymore and the other teats were fully formed. Her chest was almost completely covered in fur and it had started to move down her legs. She watches, unable to talk or even to move. her hands are now completely paws and her arms have started to shrink. Her focus is once again drawn to her face. Her mouth has stopped stretching and now looked like a muzzle. Whiskers had started growing out of what had been her upper lip and she felt her mouth go dry. Her eyes were completely catlike. Fur starts to spread all over her face. Her whiskers have finish growing. It is then that Sarah's head starts to shrink. Suddenly her knees buckle and she falls to the floor. Her legs are completely covered in fur and her feet were starting to grow longer. Her feet grew a slight film of hair as she watched, as well as her nails growing long, into claws. She tries to scream out for help, but all she can do is meow and hiss. Then her abdomen starts to shrink, until the only thing left normal sized is her legs. Then her legs start shrinking. She falls backwards, unable to sit upright anymore. Her legs are reforming and she finds herself on all fours. She thinks, Why did this happen? I thought this was supposed to make me irresistable to Carl. She then hears someone in the distance. "Sarah! Sarah! It's me, Carl! You told me to let myself in when I over here!" Carl he can help me, she thinks. She starts scratching wildly at the door. "What's that?", Carl asks, hearing the scratching. "What's in here?", Carl asks, opening the door. Just then Sarah jumps onto him and starts rubbing her head against him. "Whoa, little kitty, how'd you get locked in there? Are you hungry? I don't think Sarah's at home, I wonder where she is. You know you're a really cute cat. I'll take you home with me and I'll give you back if Sarah asks for you. I think you and I are going to have some very good times when we are by ourselves.", Carl tells the cat. The last thing Sarah thinks is, Oh no! This isn't what I had in mind. Epilogue A shopper walks past a store called Spells R Us. Inside he hears laughing. The laughter chilled him to the bone and it was a long time before he forget that laugh.
