Description
Stephanie was excited. Tonight was the night that she finally got to get some drinks with her old sorority sister, Jackie. Although inseparable back in college, the two women had grown apart over the 10 years since graduation. While her friend started a family and moved to the suburbs, Stephanie enjoyed city life too much, staying in the same apartment complex and same paper pushing job since graduating. Although they hardly saw each other at this stage of their lives, Stephanie was thrilled when Jackie informed her that she would be spending a few days in the city to attend a trade show. Stephanie excitedly agreed to meet up for drinks one night after Jackie’s convention and that day had finally arrived.

The 32-year-old brunette jumped out of bed, eager to get the day started. After a going through her daily morning beauty routine, Stephanie threw on a matching black bra and panties, followed by her grey work slacks, a button-up purple top and her favorite high heel ankle boots. After a quick breakfast, Stephanie grabbed her purse and made her way to the hallway, only to run into her neighbor, Bill, who was leaving his own apartment with a golden retriever at his side.

“Morning, Bill!” Stephanie greeted the older man, who she always thought was extremely nice, unlike his wife, Carol, who Stephanie always thought was a stuck-up bitch.

“What? Oh, morning, Steph” Bill replied, apparently startled by his neighbor.

“Sorry, I didn’t mean to scare you” Stephanie said. “Everything alright? I couldn’t help but hear some commotion coming from your place last night.”

“Oh yea. Sorry if we woke you. Carol and I just had a bit of argument” Bill said, looking down at the dog by his side.

“Oh it’s no worry at all” Stephanie said, as they began making their way to the elevator. “But who’s this little guy?” she asked, bending down to pet the dog, who looked a bit spooked by Stephanie’s hand but remained docile otherwise.

“Oh that’s Car…umm, that’s Casey” Bill replied, rather flustered. “We’re going to figure out what to do with her today, actually.”

“Well, she’s adorable. I didn’t think Carol cared for dogs” Stephanie said as the trio made their way into the elevator.

“Oh well, she just kinda appeared yesterday so we’re weighing our options today. To be honest, I’m not sure I’ll be able to keep her.” Bill replied, which caused the dog’s ears to perk up, which was followed by timid whimper. When they reached the ground floor, Casey bolted into the lobby and out to the street, forcing Bill to forego a goodbye as he chased after her, not bothering to stop as a bottle fell out of his pocket.

Stephanie retrieved the bottle, somewhat surprised to see that it was a bottle of perfume. The label read Inner Essence: Bring out your true essence with just two sprays. Shrugging her shoulders, Stephanie stashed the perfume in her purse, figuring she would return it to her neighbors once their canine conundrum was resolved. Making her way onto the street, Stephanie was eager to get her work over with so she could get some much-needed drinks.

After what seemed like the longest 8 hours of her life, Stephanie finally arrived at her favorite neighborhood bar where she was greeted by a hearty hug by her old friend, Jackie. Quickly finding a table in the sparsely attended watering hole, the two women spent the next few hours catching up, with Jackie doing most of the talking as she had the most news to share.

“…and here he is at his preschool graduation. Oh, and here’s the three of us on our Disney vacation last year” Jackie said as she showed off her family photos on her phone.

“I can’t believe little Dylan is already 5 years old! He’s gotten so big since I last saw him” Stephanie exclaimed after seeing all of Jackie’s pictures of her son.

“Well, I post all of these on Facebook. If you were on there, you’d have seen all of them by now” Jackie chided her friend.

“I just don’t see the point. I really don’t care to see that so-and-so went to the movies, or had an amazing breakfast” Stephanie replied.

“Well, I see you’re just as stubborn as ever” Jackie said. “Still stuck at that dead-end job? You know, my offer still stands. I can get you a job at my place if you want.”

“I appreciate the offer, but I’m happy where I’m at” Stephanie said. “Besides, I hate the suburbs and commuting from my place would be dreadful.”

“See, what did I just say? You’re still the same Stubborn Stephanie!” Jackie teased her friend. “Listen, I need to use the ladies’ room, care to join me?”

“Sure” Stephanie replied as the two women made their way to the restroom, passing a small group of handsome young guys who had posted up at the bar watching the Thursday night football game. Stephanie used the bathroom trip as an opportunity to freshen herself up, hoping to catch the eye of at least one young man. Fishing through her purse, she pulled out the bottle of perfume she picked up earlier. Figuring she had nothing to lose, she spritzed herself a couple of times.

“What is that smell, Steph?” Jackie asked as she exited the stall.

“Oh, it’s this new perfume I got from my neighbor. I’d never heard of it before, Inner Essence?” Stephanie answered, showing the bottle to her friend.

“Well I think it smells great! Do you mind if I borrow it?” Jackie asked, examining the bottle.

“No, go ahead. I figured I’d try it out but it’s not really doing anything for me” Stephanie replied as she fixed her hair in the mirror and unbuttoned the top two buttons on her top, revealing a bit of cleavage. Finished with their business in the restroom, the two women returned to their table, with Stephanie quickly excusing herself again. Jackie could only smile to herself as her friend put an extra wiggle to her walk as she approached the group of young men at the bar. Convinced that Stephanie’s advances were going to be fruitless, Jackie was pleasantly surprised when Stephanie returned several minutes later with a tall, handsome, yet obviously timid, guy in tow.

“Jackie, this is my new friend Tom. He was just as bored with the football game as I was so we’re going to head downstairs and shoot some pool if you care to join us” Stephanie said as Tom stood sheepishly with his hands in his pockets.

“No, that’s ok” Jackie said, as she looked at her watch. “I better head out actually, I got one more early morning downtown tomorrow. I had a great time though! We should get together sooner next time.” As Jackie got up to give her friend a goodbye hug, she couldn’t help but notice Stephanie’s oddly alluring musk. Chalking it up to the alcohol, Jackie gave her final goodbyes and left her friend with the shy young man. “Watch out for this one, Tom. She can be incredibly stubborn” she said as she left the two to their game.

With her friend gone, Stephanie was happy to turn her full attention to Tom and the ensuing game of pool in the otherwise empty basement of the bar. Stephanie always insisted on playing pool whenever she tried to pick up guys at this bar. In her mind, it was the perfect way to break the ice and enjoy some privacy. Plus, she always enjoyed admiring the view as her partners would bend over to take their shots and she always made sure to reciprocate for them. After Tom took the break shot, Stephanie sauntered over to the table, stick in hand. Sticking her butt out, hoping to get Tom’s attention, Stephanie took her shot, not sinking any balls. However, she wasn’t concerned about the game at the moment, instead upset that her earrings had both fallen off.

“Ah shit, where the hell did my earrings go?” Stephanie proclaimed as she felt around on the floor, completely unaware of the reason the jewelry fell off – in an instant, her ears had grown significantly, now sticking nearly a foot above her head and covered in thick brownish grey hair. Tom offered help her, but Stephanie refused his help and insisted he take his shot. She soon found her earrings anyway, baffled as to why they suddenly and inexplicably snapped out of their clasps.

“Crap, your turn” Tom said as he too failed to sink a ball. Feeling his phone vibrate, Tom stepped aside, too engrossed in reading his text message to notice his opponent’s long ears. Stephanie herself was blissfully unaware too as she stashed her broken earrings in her purse and bent over to take her shot. The sound of balls clacking together masked the ripping sound emanating from Stephanie’s rear end as a foreign object suddenly shot out of the seat of her pants, quickly lengthening and growing its own thick coat of fur until a donkey tail dangled from just above Stephanie’s butt.

“Nice, finally! I’m stripes” Stephanie proclaimed as she managed to sink the 14 ball, blissfully unaware of the new appendage swaying behind her.

“Tell ya what, while you take your next shot, why don’t I go get us a couple of drinks?” Tom asked as he began to make his way to the stairs.

“That’s sweet, but you don’t need to do anything for me” Stephanie responded.

“You sure? I really don’t mind!” Tom pleaded.

“I’m fine, I swear!” Stephanie insisted.

“Boy, your friend was right, you are stubborn” Tom said as he made his way upstairs anyway to use the men’s room.

“Huh, what do they know?” Stephanie muttered to herself, rolling her eyes at Tom’s comments and still blissfully unaware of her altered appearance. Making her way to the other side of the pool table, furry tail dangling from the seat of her pants all the while, Stephanie took one more shot as she heard her new friend make his way back downstairs. “Do I really look like a stubborn mule, Tom?” Stephanie asked as she turned around to face him.

Tom, who had been enjoying his time with this pretty woman who he had just met, suddenly entered a state of shock after gazing upon her. It was an unbelievable sight; Stephanie now possessed the head of a donkey! Her beautiful green eyes were replaced by the dark, soulless eyes of an animal, her pretty face was now a long, furry equine snout, and her gorgeous shoulder-length brown hair was now a black mane which ran down her neck and disappeared into her shirt. Struggling to process what he was seeing, Tom accidentally dropped his drink, which shattered immediately on the floor.

“Hahaha, good one, butterfingers” Stephanie teased her partner as she continued to laugh. “Hahahahaw HAW? HEEEEEEEEEEEEEE HAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!” Stephanie shouted as her laugh devolved into a rugged bray. Quickly slapping her hands over her mouth at the unnatural sound that had escaped her mouth, Stephanie’s shock multiplied when her hands came in contact with leathery lips that stuck out much further than they should have.

“D-d-did that just come from me?” Stephanie asked Tom, who timidly nodded. Still trying to grasp what was happening, Stephanie returned her hands to her face, once again inspecting the leathery tip of her new snout, complete with massive, flaring nostrils. At the same, time, Stephanie probed her tongue throughout the inside of her mouth, noting the unsettling feeling of larger, blockier teeth. Shifting her hands further away from her mouth, Stephanie was shocked to feel thick fur covering the rest of her face, the shape of which was just as shocking. Migrating further up her newly changed cranium, Stephanie finally grabbed hold of her new donkey ears, running her fingers up their entire length, eventually grabbing hold of them and pulling in a futile attempt to remove them. While Stephanie was examining her head, she had been instinctively stepping backwards until she backed up into the pool table. However it wasn’t her rear which came in contact with the table, it was her tail. Startled at the foreign sensation, Stephanie released her ears and turned around to find a ropey tail dangling from a hole in her slacks. Grabbing the appendage in her hands, Stephanie pulled it around to her front to get a better view, gawking at the grey fur and black tassel.

“This isn’t happening. This is all just some kind of weird fever dream” Stephanie nervously assured herself as she inched towards the mirror which hung in the corner of the pool room to inspect her reflection. Gazing upon her reflection confirmed Stephanie’s suspicion – her head had inexplicably transformed into a donkey’s head. Stephanie reacted the only way she knew how, by letting out a blood-curdling scream that could be heard throughout the entire bar.

“HELP! HELP! SOMEBODY HELP ME!” Stephanie shrieked in a fit of panic as she tried to process what was happening to her. Terrified beyond her wildest dreams, Stephanie ran about the pool room, looking for anyone and anything that could possibly help her unusual predicament until she caught sight of Tom, unaware that the fur that adorned her head was spreading, covering her entire torso beneath her shirt. Beginning to make her way back to the pool table, Stephanie tripped over her own feet. Tumbling to the ground, she looked back to see her feet had slipped out of her shoes, but what worried her more was the sight of her toes, or more accurately what used to be her toes. The ends of her feet were merging together and darkening, quickly becoming equine hooves. Shaking her head, Stephanie crawled her way to Tom, wincing at the alien sensation of her tail dragging across the sticky floor.

“Oh please! Tom, you gotta help me!” Stephanie begged as she grabbed the frightened young man by the shirt. “Look at me! I’m becoming a donkey! Do something! Anything!” Stephanie continued to beg until she felt a cramp shoot through her hands, causing her to lose her grip. She stared helplessly as her fingers uncontrollably curled into fists, melding into her hands which quickly became hooves to match the hooves at the ends of her legs.

“AHHHHHHHHHHHH” Stephanie screamed at the sight of her new hooves, which she pawed against Tom, who simply stood awestruck as he watched the once beautiful women struggle onto what used to be her feet. Stephanie tried to continue her mad pursuit for help, but her legs failed her as her feet and calves were lengthening while her thighs were shortening, growing a thick coat of fur in the process. Stephanie was even more distraught as her arms lengthened and reshaped until they resembled the forelegs of a donkey, complete with the same grey fur that adorned the rest of her body.

“HELP! HELP!” Stephanie continued to shout as she struggled to maintain her balance on her inhuman limbs, which were clearly better suited for quadrupedal movement. Suddenly, the buttons on her shirt began to pop off and the clasp on her bra broke as her chest barreled outward, absorbing her womanly breasts in the process. Her hips and butt pushed out as well, causing the hole in the seat of her pants to grow even more while snapping could be heard as her underwear finally succumbed to the pressure exerted by her now massive rear end and broke. As the remaining changes overcame Stephanie’s body, she found herself forced forward into the quadruped stance of an animal. As her neck lengthened and expanded, Stephanie gave one final shout, “I DON’T WANNA BE A DONKEEEEEEEEEEEEEE HAWWWWWWWWWWWWW HEEEEEEEEEE HAWWWWW!”

With her vocal cords no longer able to form any semblance of human speech, Stephanie was no more. Instead, a terrified donkey in women’s clothing stood stunned in the middle of the pool room. But the frenzied changes weren’t over, her mind was now in a state of chaos as she struggled to comprehend the impossible events that just happened. Without even thinking, she began to buck like a true animal. Her mind was being flooded by new animalistic instincts, the strongest of which was her fight or flight and clearly, her donkey mind wanted to escape the confines of the basement pool room. Kicking over tables and chairs, the remnants of Stephanie’s clothing flew off, almost hitting Tom who had backed into the corner, keeping a safe distancing from the rampaging donkey.

The commotion caused by the former woman finally captured the attention of bartenders upstairs, who came downstairs, expecting to find rowdy drunks in the midst of a fight, only to encounter a mad animal causing the destruction while Tom watched helplessly from the corner of the room. The bartender sprang into action, getting the donkey’s attention, hoping to lead her upstairs and outside. Once shooed upstairs, Stephanie caused a bit more panicked destruction in her anger and confusion before finally escaping the confines of the bar. Unfortunately, she now faced another conundrum – where would she go now? Her feeble mind was getting assaulted by a wave of new sensations – nostrils flaring at the smell of an urban environment, completely foreign to a barnyard animal. Cars were honking and swerving to avoid Stephanie as she stood in the middle of the road while pedestrians gawked at the befuddled animal, snapping pictures and taking video of the unusual sight.

“HEE HAW! HEE HAW! HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE HAWWWWWWWWWWW! Stephanie brayed in anger at the flashing lights assaulting her vision. Her fading human logic tried to tell her that these lights were harmless but her donkey mind, which was easily winning the battle for control, saw them as a threat. Seeking an escape, and acting purely on instinct, Stephanie began to run, with no real direction in mind; she just knew that she had to get away.

Tom and the rest of the bargoers, having finally gathered themselves after enduring the chaos that had unfolded inside, finally came to their senses and made their way out of the ransacked bar, looking for the animal that caused the destruction, only to find a group of equally confused onlookers. While the other patrons mingled with the pedestrians, Tom continued to look around, making his way down the street in hopes of finding any sign of Stephanie. After walking a few blocks, Tom was only able to hear faint braying as he caught a passing glimpse of a bucking figure in the distance as it disappeared into the night.
