Darren's Dilemma Chapter Seventeen
Princess Darla is Born
By Suzie Q Haff
Out of the darkness of sleep I could hear Kenny G's music playing softly
in my ears and there I was at Perfection standing front and center. To
my left was Queen Jean who was seconded by Jana and to my right was
Mother. On the far left was the Council of Elders and on the far right
was the Royal Guard standing at attention. I was facing the audience
made up of some of everyone else including all of the Pinkies and their
fairy godmothers not just from our little town but from all over. The
castle was packed to the max with warriors and helpers hovering all over
the place.
Q. M. Agatha stood up: "Beloved sisters throughout all of Thermodon,
Queen Jean, Queen Alexis, Soon to be Crowned Queen Jana and Elder Queen
Mother Sisters of the Grand Council; We are gathered together to hear
the request of Darren, Nephew of Queen Jean, Step Son of Queen Alexis,
Step Brother to Jana and Grandson of us all. Darren you may now speak
your request."
I stood quivering looking out over the crowded Grand Throne Room and
swallowed a hard lump. I turned slowly to face the Council and could
feel every eye watching me as they awaited me to speak. The entire
castle had become silent and everyone seemed to be holding their breath.
Sweat trickled down my forehead as I tried to speak.
Darren dry mouthed: "Well, I ah, wa, want, to ah, ac..cept my, my
bir..rth rite and beco..ome the P, Princ...cessss.. um, warrior."
Q. M. Agatha sternly: "I sense great hesitation and resistance in your
voice! Could it be that you are truly not ready for this?" She turned to
the Council. "Sisters, I put the vote to you all! How many of you think
Darren is ready?" Not one of them answered. "All opposed?" They all
answered opposed. "Darren my lad you have not demonstrated confidence in
your decision and therefore are not granted rite to passage at this
time!"
I felt myself start to fall and suddenly I was home, in the kitchen,
with Mother screaming about how disappointed she was and that I was
going to make amends for failing so miserably. Jana had a sour look on
her face and wasn't saying a word.
Mother screamed: "I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO EMBARRASSED IN MY LIFE! ARE YOU
TRYING TO KILL ME? WHAT HAVE I DONE TO DESERVE SUCH A FAILURE?" She went
on and on.
Annie sniffled: "A Princess Warrior you were to be! Disgraced us all you
have. Never have no one will I!" She vanished in a quiet "poof." I could
still hear Kenny G in the background.
Mother angrily: "GO TO YOUR ROOM AND GET OUT OF MY SITE!"
She clapped her hands twice and I was suddenly in my room. I tried to
make my wand appear and couldn't even get the palm of my hand to glow. I
threw myself on my bed and started crying. And the scene faded as I woke
up and realized it was only a nightmare and sat straight up! Thank
goodness! What a relief! My heart was pounding and I was breathing
really hard. Annie was sitting on my pillow looking in her tiny hand
mirror brushing her hair.
Annie joyfully: "Ah there ya be! Mornin' Darla dear. Have a bit of dream
did we?"
Darla sighed heavily: "For real! I dreamt everything went wrong. Agatha
and the Council denied my request!"
Annie giggled: "'tis just your inner self tellin' ya lies 'tis. Know
your heart they do for certain. Not to worry, keep you strong I will!"
Darla: "Thanks Annie. I'm just nervous I guess."
Annie: "Aye, and who wouldn't be? 'tis not an easy path you have
chosen."
Darla: "What time is it anyways?"
Annie: "Don't know how to tell time your way, but mornin' be wastin' ta
midday."
I got out of bed and straightened my corset, slipped into my kimono and
marabou slippers and made a trip to the john. I knew that after today
sitting on the throne would no longer be by choice, although wearing
these corsets didn't leave a choice anyhow. Tracey must have gotten up
with Jana as she was not in Jana's room so I went down to the kitchen
for coffee. As I entered and got a cup of coffee, Mother and Tracey
where sitting opposite each other, in their night clothes and robes,
discussing methods of applying our magical skills in intricate detail
while I sat down between them.
Mother: "Tracey, honestly, all you have to do is think about how you
want to dress in detail and tap yourself on the top of your head."
Tracey: "I always seem to forget some detail no matter how hard I try
and have to add little things like panties or a camisole. Last time I
got all my undies straight and forgot the fool dress!"
Mother giggled: "Good Morning Princess. Tracey dear, Jana said to ask
you about becoming a warrior."
Tracey: "Jana ought to shut up! She is trying to help me express my
boyish tendencies so she is trying to badger me into thinking I am
beautiful. I am a very confused fairy. On one hand I want to go to an
industrial arts college and learn auto mechanics and then on the other I
want to go to nursing school. I could go to college and take computer
science like Mr. Brainiac here too. Most girls get clothes and hot
rollers for their birthday but I got a new set of cordless power tools
and love them to death. The first job I used them for was fixing that
front storm door that my brainless old man is always too drunk to fix."
Mother: "Jana loves you like a real genetically connected sister and is
only trying to help you see yourself as the beautiful lady you were
meant to be. Now do you or don't you want to become a warrior?"
Darla: "Think about it babe. You and I could still be partners in crime!
Why the two of us will open a can of industrial, strength, whoop ass
that Raven will never forget! Why we'll beat the stuffing out him,
through him down and leave him there." The two of them giggled.
Tracey made another excuse: "My helper is not a warrior though!" Tracey
cocked her head as though listening.
Annie proudly: "Aye! Train ya myself I will!"
Donna: "And no better is there to train ya! If Sister Annie will allow
me, I would like to help too!"
Annie excitedly: "Glorious it will be! Just say Aye Tracey dear."
Tracey looked at her shoulder: "You're sure Misty?" She sighs. "Oh
alright, we're in!"
Mother proudly: "I will announce it tonight!" She looks at her watch.
"Oh my, look at the time, it's 10:45 and I am not even dressed. Tracey,
stand in the middle of the floor and think about how you want to dress
then tap the top of your head with your wand."
Tracey with a frown: "Do I have to?" Mother glared at her. "Ok, I'll try
again. Wand!"
She thinks for a long moment then taps her head and she started to spin
faster and faster until she was a blur. Then she started to slow down
and when came she to a stop appeared to be fully dressed. She was
wearing a pleated, red, mid thigh skirt, a pink, sleeveless, crew neck T
top, nude nylons and white, flat sandals. Her hair was perfectly braided
and tied with a red bow on the end.
Mother: "See? You can do it! Now stop trying to do it yourself and draw
on Misty's magical strength as well" Tracey checked to see if her undies
were there and they were.
Tracey: "Well halleluiah! Everything appears to be here even my
panties."
Darla: "Just a little makeup and a couple of finishing touches like a
little lipstick and eyeliner and you'll be done!"
Mother stood in the center of the room: "Wand! Oh magic wand you are
always tried and true, dress this fairy all in sky blue, white lace trim
and matching bow in my dew. Make my face pretty with violet, blue and
pink, a matching blue corset and nude nylons I think. Lace my corset
extra tight, and on my feet high heeled sandals of white. A bright shade
of pink on my fingers and toes and all of my rings I suppose. Silky
panties a light shade of pink, Charlie all over I should think. A string
of pearls and dangle earrings too, a tap on the head and old friend
we'll be through." She tapped her head on started spinning faster and
faster until sparkles were thrown off and she started to slow until she
stopped. "So how do I look?"
Mother's dress was of course sky blue, an element of butterfly fairies
by the way. It had a blouse top with cap sleeves and a shirt collar left
open to her cleavage. The bottom was a roll pleated skirt that stopped
at mid thigh and had a four inch lace trim below it. A narrow white belt
around her waist separated the top from the bottom. There was half inch
white, lace trim everywhere. She had on a long string of pearls and
matching dangle earrings and her face was done impeccably in the colors
she had ordered. A white, lace bow with long streamers was nestled on
top of her head and hung daintily down the sides giving this very sexy
Mother a sort of girlish appearance. I sat there staring at her sort of
speechless.
Tracey in awe: "Darla, are you sure she is a warrior queen?"
Darla: "Yea, I know. She could even sneak passed the CIA! Mother you
look very pretty, together and girly at the same time! How do you do
that? By the way, where is Aunty this morning?"
Mother snapped her fingers making her coffee refill magically in an
instant: "I can't tell how I do it because it's magic! Jean had to see
to the castle and other fairy business" Annie and Donna giggle.
Darla: "That is a cop out! Can't tell because it's magic my butt!"
Annie: "Good at it Trudy was too! Made everyone jealous she did!"
Tracey: "Well I wish I could do it that well."
Mother with a sly grin toying with her left ear: "You can my dear; you
just don't know it yet! Practice makes perfect. I must make a quick trip
to the castle." She went into the living room and we saw a pinkish glow
that changed to blue with a whirlwind sound.
I tried refilling my cup by thinking about it filling while pointing my
finger at it and moving it up the cup and to my surprise it filled!
Annie proudly: "Aren't we gettin' to be the smart one?"
Tracey: "Misty I can't do it. What do you mean yes you can? Oh for
Pete's sake!" Tracey tried and much to her shock it worked for her too.
There was a whirlwind sound and Mother walked in and sat down and
started drinking her coffee again.
Darla: "Well that was certainly a quick trip. How much could you have
gotten accomplished?" Everyone laughed. "Ok, so why is that a stupid
statement?"
Mother: "Remember the times we have gone to the castle and how very
little time passed here? Well, I spoke to the castle's elite guard about
their special drill they are going to perform, gave some announcements
to our several encampments of warriors, conferred with Jean and some of
the counsel and stuck my tongue out at Claudia as I passed her. It has
to be tough being stuck in cold stone like that!"
Donna: "It couldn't have happened to a more deserving witch! A traitor
to the Sisterhood she is!"
Annie: "She was once my friend and one of Trudy's most loyal captains.
Gave Raven a little, fire breathing, brat son she did! Deader than dead
she should be!" The door bell rang.
Mother: "Now who can that could be? Are we expecting someone?"
Darla and Tracey in unison: "Jonesy and Danny!" Annie laughed as she
knew why they were here.
Darla: "Mother stall while I go upstairs to dress!"
Doorbell rang again as Tracey and I ran upstairs. In my room I decided
to try out dressing and pictured myself with my corset a little tighter,
fresh nylons and panties, the stretch jeans I wore Tuesday with a pink
daisy, on the hip pocket and small pink zippers with tiny pink daisy
pulls on the bottom of each leg on the outside, and a pink satin cami.
On my feet I pictured my pink, patent, leather, high heeled Mary Janes.
Darla: "Wand! Wand my dear, I'm not dressed and the boys are here. Dress
this fairy as quick as wink, in these clothes, of blue and pink." I
tapped myself, on my head with my wand and started spinning so fast I
thought I would be dizzy for a month. However as I slowed down I found I
was not dizzy at all.
Annie proudly giggled: "See Majesty? You are learning quickly!"
We could hear Mother questioning the boys as we applied our makeup and
brushed our hair. A few sprays of Crazy Daisies and we were on our way
downstairs to rescue them from the third degree Mother was putting them
through.
Mother as we descended the stairs: "Now we will not tolerate you two
spreading ugly things. Is that clear?"
Jonesy politely: "Oh yes Mrs. Perkins. Darren is our bud for life!"
Mother giggled: "Well, time will tell!"
Their mouths were quite a jar as Tracey and I stopped in front of them.
I motioned for them to follow us and we went out on the deck and sat at
the table. They stared at me for some time before Danny spoke to break
the silence.
Danny stuttered: "Yea, well, Jonesy started asking me a lot of questions
because of the cheerleader thing and then Bruno has been claiming you
were a witch. So I told him 'bout my ole man and how you fixed Mickey's
hand and your Mom fixed my arm."
Jonesy: "You mean you have a wand and everything?" I nodded yes. "WOW!
That is like so totally rad man!" Annie giggled gently in my ear.
I told them how the fairy DNA was implanted into me during my infant
years and the time was coming for me to make a choice and that tonight
was the night. They were fascinated and wanted to know every detail. It
took me an hour to explain everything. Tracey remained silent as though
waiting for something dangerous and unexpected to happen.
Jonesy: "Well I want to make sure you and I remain buds."
Danny: "Me too!" Danny looked down. "I have a confession to make. I
really liked being a cheerleader for those few hours." Jonesy cringed
and Tracey burst out in a laugh.
Jonesy: "Yea, well that figures. You've always been a tad strange!"
Danny: "Gee thanks for the vote of confidence! With guys like you for
buds, who needs any bad guys?"
Darla: "Well whatever are buds for?" I batted my eyelids at them and
they cracked up while Tracey watched suspiciously.
Jonesy: "So let's see some real proof!"
Darla laughing: "Wand!" It appeared and Jonesy froze as stiff as an oak
tree. "Four Pepsis in glasses with ice, and a bowl of chips would be
really nice." I snapped my wand and "POOF!" the cold drinks and chips
were on the table with purple sparkles tinkling all around.
Jonesy stuttered: "S, So when th, th, th..ey have c, ca, called you a
fairy it was true and no one including you knew it? MAN! OK, how long
have you known?"
Darla: "'bout a week and a half."
Jonesy laughed: "All the guys think Bruno has manufactured the story
about you being a fairy. They also think Mickey has lost his mind! No
body, and I mean absolutely no body, believes for a solitary second that
their stories are fact. In fact, some of them are getting pretty pissed
at those two for trying to make such silly excuses for what happened to
them!"
Danny: "You don't have to worry about us 'cause we don't want them to
think we've lost it either!"
Jonesy: "For real! We certainly don't need any more enemies."
Darla with raised eyebrows: "There's more! Annie, reveal yourself."
Annie appeared and landed on the table in front of us. "This is my
helper fairy." Both boys sat there as if in shock staring at Annie.
Annie: "And what would you two be a starin' at? Cat got'cher tongue does
he?" Tracey was giggling as it occurs to Danny she is a fairy as well
and his jaw flopped wide open.
Danny: "So this is what all that whispering and Pinky stuff is really
all about?"
Tracey: "Well we could tell you, but then we would have to kill you!"
Jonesy: "What is a helper fairy anyway?"
Darla: "Peter Pan had Tinkerbelle and I have Annie!"
Tracey: "Yea and I have Misty."
Danny: "Man this is like so very twisted! I gotta know if them boobs are
real!"
Darla giggled: "Yea buddy, and we like it twisted. Yes they are!"
Danny: "What's it like to have real boobs?"
Jonesy: "Danny shut up! Are you dense or what?"
Darla: "Hey, I would have asked that question. I am not going to answer
it either."
Jonesy: "To quote a buddy of mine 'Well alrightie then!'"
At this point the conversation turned mostly to video games, Far Cry,
Tomb Raider, Call of Duty2, Diablo 2 and the like. Tracey joined in and
we were all laughing hysterically about the movie Cars when Mother came
out on the deck.
Mother: "I am glad to see we are all in a jovial mood; however it is
nearly three and we have to start preparing for our little ceremony this
evening. Why don't you two boys call tomorrow? Maybe we will cook out
and swim or something?"
Danny: "Cool!"
With that they left promising not to reveal anything. I didn't bother to
explain that it wouldn't matter because they won't remember me as ever
being a boy anyway.
Mother closing the front door: "Alone, at last! Tracey dear you may use
my bathroom. Baby Boy you may go upstairs and get your cute, little,
keister into the tub and scrub it squeaky clean. Remember no makeup
dear. Miss Annabelle, polish that nasty armor."
I took a long relaxing bubble bath with those purple bath crystals as
always and Annie polished her armor.
Annie: "Wand! Tarnished and nasty my armor must not be, sparkling clean
and mirror shiny for all to see." "POOF!" and her armor was so clean and
shiny it sparkled. I noticed that her armor had a sort of lavender glow
with black leather when clean instead of the steal grey and brown
leather of all the others and mine.
Darla: "Annie your armor is different."
Annie grinned: "Aye, 'tis special metal and leather. Trudy's armor and
mine, made together they were. The breast plate and helmet made of blue,
titanium alloyed with pink, fairy, blade steel they are. Dulls a fairy
blade it does! Three times this alloy was mixed before Trudy got it
right. Ask Desiree to make special armor for you I will. Maybe Desiree
remembers the elements and the process! The leather, specially treated
bull it is! Soaked in oils and hot treated for maximum flexibility and
toughness it is. Turns it shiny, coal, black the hot treatment it does."
Darla settling back in the warm suds: "So how tough can it be?"
Annie: "Raven and his dragon breath can't melt it. Nothin' can pierce it
includin' fairy blade, hell blade or Valkyrie spear! Half of common
armor it weights, makin' a fairy's flight a piece of cake."
Darla: "So why doesn't everyone have it?"
Annie: "Dunno really. Died with Trudy the secret did and believe me, no
one would. Made Annie very mad at everyone it did! Silly tricks played
on them I did. What makes Annie tick, so now know you."
Darla sitting straight up: "Can you demonstrate how tough this armor
really is?"
Annie thought hard: "You just relax and right back Annie will be." Two
claps and a "POOF!" then she was gone while I tried to think of
something classy to say tonight. I was deep in thought when she returned
several minutes later in a "POOF!" "Have Trudy's breast plate I do, at
Desiree's smith shop at the castle 'tis."
Darla: "Cool! Now all we have to do is sweet talk Mother into testing
it!"
Mother entered: "Sweet talk Mother into testing what?" Annie bowed.
Annie: "Trudy's armor."
Mother: "Rise dear. Are we back to that again? Annie how do you propose
we test something that doesn't exist?"
Annie: "Have her breast plate I do. Made of blue, titanium alloyed with
pink, fairy, blade steel it is. Tougher than tough 'tis!"
Donna: "She is constantly bragging about her armor and daring us to try
and pierce it. Alas, none of us want to see her dead. We all think she
has a death wish!"
Mother: "How did you manage to get her breast plate seeing how it was
buried with her?"
Annie: "Two she had. One she wore and one that hung on her armor stand
in the castle! Desiree has it and tryin' to remember the formula for
makin' the alloy she is."
Mother exasperated: "That does it! I am going to put this fairytale to
rest tonight at the ceremony! Everyone knows warriors have only one set
of real armor! When I pierce that plate with my spear and hack it to
pieces with my sword you will be singing a different tune!"
Annie giggled: "'twill be the same tune Majesty. Say it I would not if
it were not true!"
Mother sternly: "Annabelle if this is another one of your sordid little
games I will put you to permanent rest! Darla, Sweetheart, shave and out
of the tub before you shrivel up!" Two claps and she was gone.
Annie gleefully: "Find out she will!"
Darla: "I hope so for both of us."
I shaved everywhere but I didn't see the point as my body had become
quite hairless. After drying and spraying oil on myself I went to my
room to get dressed when there was a loud "POOF!" Mother, Jana and
Tracey appeared together giggling and Annie bowed.
Mother giggled: "Miss Annabelle rise and tell me again where and how you
say you got that armor?"
Annie: "Took it from Trudy's armor stand in the upper most level of the
castle I did. Put there long ago 'twas after her death."
Jana: "Desiree is frantically searching for notes about the alloying
process and doing her best to remember how to do it again." Jana looked
at Tracey and they cracked up. "Mother destroyed not one but two swords,
dulled her own and trashed her best spear just trying to put a scratch
on that plate! Desiree says all she can remember is that it ruined her
anvil and two of her best hammers to make armor for you and Trudy."
Mother with a cocked smirk: "Now I am going to demonstrate that armor
tonight for certain! Annie I am sorry that we all doubted you."
Annie: "'most half of regular armor it weights. Helps Annie to fly
faster it does. 'tis why I have won all those races!"
Mother: "So that is how you fly so fast?"
Annie giggled: "Aye Majesty. Regular helper armor weights one tad but
made with Trudy's steel weights only five jots."
Jana astounded: "And all this time we thought you were using some sort
of telepathy to move you faster." Annie laughed.
Tracey: "She and B. B. will make a great pair. To quote Darren 'when all
else fails, CHEAT!"
Mother: "I can see we all should have been listening more closely to
what you were saying." Mother glances at her wrist watch. "Enough! It is
4:00 and we've only an hour and a half to 'zap' ourselves into looking
like fairies before our sisters start arriving. Miss Annabelle is the
only one of us ready. Annie dear you look very pretty and together and
with your armor so shiny it gives off such a pretty lavender glow!"
I laid out my Pinky uniform, pink corset, the sparkly, magenta, high
heels, pink, charmeuse slip and a new pair of nude nylons. After
snuggling into my corset and hooking the front I went to Jana's room to
have her tighten my laces. As always she had me gasping for air forcing
me to relax and catch my breath before I tightened hers. Tracey was
watching and laughed quoting Jana, "just not tough enough to be a girl!"
Jana gave me a hair band just like hers that had a butterfly fairy
attached to it and a pair of hook earrings with a tiny butterfly fairy
dangling from an inch of fishing line to give the effect of flight.
Returning to my room I put the amethyst pendant on and kissed it several
times and could feel changes taking place to my waist, face, breast,
shoulders, arms and legs. I decided to try using my wand to dress again.
Annie smiled slyly: "Ifin' ya keep kissin' that rock, a fluff you'll
become for certain!" We laughed a little then I started.
Darla with Annie on her shoulder: "Wand! Princess Darla needs to be
dressed, in her prettiest pink and fairy best! I must look grand for
this special night, to accept my place and fairy birthright." I tapped
myself with my wand and started to spin, faster and faster and then
slower and slower until I stopped. I looked in my full length mirror.
"Well Annie, how do I look?"
Annie: "Well, like a fairy princess of course, and fairy pretty at
that."
Annie and I straightened up my room and the bathroom with a couple of
"POOFS!" then went down stairs and out on the deck to wait for the
others. The backyard was a blaze of fire flies like I had never
witnessed. Dragonflies and butterflies were everywhere and seemed to be
buzzing out my name and flying passed me willfully.
Annie: "All of them love you Majesty!"
Captain Naomi bowed in front of me: "Good evening Princess Darla and to
you also Miss Annabelle!"
Darla: "Rise Captain. Good evening to you to also."
Captain: "It is my desire that all go well tonight." She raised her
right fist to her chest. "By your command I must tend to my post."
Darla: "What do I say now?"
Captain giggles: "Salute me by raising your right fist to your chest and
say 'by my command.'"
Darla raised her right fist to her chest: "By my command Captain."
Captain Naomi grinned proudly as she flew off. "Being the Princess is
going to take some getting used to."
Annie: "Aye, but soon you'll be walkin' 'bout, cocky as the rest of us.
The first thing a queen warrior must learn is how to gain both respect
and love together from her warriors. Takes time and testin' it does."
Soon the house was a buzz of fairies from our immediate community
including all of the newbie's. They sat me in a chair in the middle of
the kitchen and several of them had a hand in doing some portion of my
makeup which scared me to death. "She needs a more dramatic look", "I
think she looks adorable like she is" then they would do a little of
this or that and stand back. They finally decided I looked good enough
to head on to the castle and allowed me to look into a mirror. Actually
I just looked very mature and over done but pretty none the less. In the
living room we made several circles then started our little chant and
soon we were all climbing the steps to the castle. Everyone made some
sort of nasty crack about witches or fallen fairies as they passed
Claudia then spat on her. Tracey and Jana thumbed their nose at her and
Coach Stanton asked if that could be done to her ex-husband.
The great hall was packed to the max with all the upstairs terraces and
balconies filled to capacity plus. The main terrace was standing room
only as the gala celebration got underway. The entire castle did not
need any additional lighting as there were millions of fireflies. Queen
Jean was first to speak.
Queen Jean: "Dearly beloved of the Sisterhood of the Lilac Butterfly and
honored new comers, we are gathered together for several reasons during
this full phase of the moon. Of course as everyone already knows we are
here mainly to grant a birthright passage to Darren Perkins. There are
also several who are here to become sisters and Darren, soon to be
Darla, must select his or her helper. We also have a special little
dance that the younger Pinkies from district six are going to grace us
with and Queen Alex and our beloved Master Smith Desiree have a special
new armor they are going to demonstrate. We will start by combining the
force of our wands into a force of one." All commanded their wand out
and pointed it at the center of the ceiling where a long white crystal
was hanging commanded their force to the crystal in unison. Long bolts
of what appear to be electricity reach from every wand to the crystal
which became a glowing pillar of light with the intensity of an anti
aircraft search light. "Judging by the brightness of the crystal I
assume then we are all in agreement. For those of you who are new and
may not know, to my immediate right is Queen Alexis, Chief Warrior of
the Sisterhood." Cheers and applauds. "To my left is our soon to be
crowned Queen Jana."There was more and louder cheers and applauding. "To
Queen Alexis' right is Darren our soon to be Princess Darla the
Feminine. Isn't he just adorable?" Everyone chuckled. "It is great to
see such enthusiasm! The Junior Pinkies from district 6 will now perform
the war dance of the Amazons."
Queen Jean sat down on her throne and ten twelve to fourteen year old
fairies came forward and commanded their swords to appear. They paired
off then laid their swords on the floor crossed and the pair of fairies
shared their cross dancing a sort of jig around and over the sharp
edges. Music was provided by our little fairy orchestra which consisted
of flutes made from grass stems, horns made from small bell shaped
flowers and various strange looking stringed instruments. Their fairy
gowns appeared to be made of gold and deep blue satin with black, satin,
high heeled, pumps on their feet. Mother held my hand as I stood next to
her throne enjoying this entertainment.
Queen Jean applauded as they exited then winked: "My but we have such
talent among us. Thank you dears. Alex dear, I turn things over to you."
Mother stood: "The Elite Guard have prepared a special demonstration of
their Martial Arts skills. As many of you know they train to become
assassins and just recently Marion, Chastine, Selina, Louise, and
Martina have managed to acquire the accomplished skills of the Lilac
star." They filed in as Mother was speaking. Mother in a very military
sort of way stood in front of them one at a time and first attached the
star over their left breast cup on their leather cloak then kissed their
left ear. She then stepped back and saluted by bringing her right fist
to her chest.
Mother: "You five have performed well and deserve the utmost respect.
You make your Chief Warrior proud and have captured the admiration of
both of your Queens! Let us all show them how much we appreciate their
hard work." Then everyone stood and applauded as they turned to face the
audience.
Mother: "They are now going to help me with a tiny experiment. May I
have the breastplate to be tested brought out." Desiree brings the plate
and sets it in the center of the staging area on a stand brought in by
one of her assistants.
Mother: "Marion, please attack the plate with your sword at will."
Marion draws her blade and makes a running swipe at it then proceeds to
keep hacking away at the plate to no avail.
Mother: "Marion is one of our strongest of the Elite Guard! Chastine you
have those nasty talons, why don't you give it a try." She tried a
maneuver called thunder claws several times and declared her talons
dulled. Mother then drew her sword and hit the plate so hard it fell
down then she held her sword up revealing its damaged edge.
Mother: "This breastplate belonged to a legendary sister. She and
Desiree worked to develop a new alloy so tough that a fairy blade is
dulled by it and a spear cannot pierce it!" She snatched up her spear
and threw it with all her might at the plate. The spear struck the plate
splitting the spear. "Desiree dear you shall have to craft me a new
one." Everyone laughed. "Queen Mother Trudicia is the one who figured
that blue titanium and pink fairy steel could be alloyed to create armor
so tough that Raven's dragon breath could not melt it! Had it not been
for the persistence of Miss Annabelle this secret would have been lost.
Come hither precious one." Annie revealed herself in flight as she flew
and bowed in front of her in mid air. "I am going to steal Jean's
thunder here. Miss Annabelle has decided to change her ways and is
showing much respect and taking on new challenges to be announced later.
She has made us proud again! Rise Miss Annabelle. Queen Jean has decided
that if Annie does well she shall be reinstated to her previous post of
Chief Warrior Helper." Everyone cheered as Annie disappeared and
returned to my shoulder. I could feel her tears of joy trickling down my
neck as she kissed my ear. Mother returned control to Queen Jean.
Queen Jean: "Will Joan, Carol, Veronica, Jennifer, Melanie and Penny
from district one, Connie, Camile and Stacy from district four, Jasmine
and Stella from district eight come forward?" They lined up side by side
in front of Jean. "These have travelled here tonight to be counted
amongst us as sisters. Are there any that would challenge their request
to join us?" The silence was deafening. "Then in accordance with the
prescribed ritual you may all now recite the law." We all listened
patiently as they recited the law. Jean then made each one pinky promise
to her. "Great Amazon spirits of the Thermodon please join us now and
embrace these who have come to join us." A cool rushing wind passed
through the castle and a lavender glow came over the inductees. Suddenly
there was a loud "POOF!" and instantly their tiny wings appeared and
multi colored sparkles twirled around them in a sort of whirlwind and
tinkles could be heard. "Sisters, I present to you all our new sisters
for the first time." Cheers and applauding were loud and long as Jean
put an amethyst pendant around each one's neck. Q. M. Agatha hugged each
one and a pinkish glow appeared around each then she taught each how to
call their wand.
Queen Jean sternly: "Now we come to a most serious matter, as there
seems to be a boy among us this evening and I want him in front of me
right now!"
Mother whispered: "It's all part of the ceremony Dear. Just go and be
you." I walked slowly out and nervously faced Jean with my back to the
audience.
Queen Jean winked at me: "Now tell us boy, why have you come here?"
Darren scared to death: "Qu, Queen Mother Agatha is m, my Gra,
Grandmother and I, um, wish to c cla..im m, my b, birthright."
Queen Jean: "I see! Have you been advised as to the restrictions of
such?"
Darren puzzled: "Um, Aunt Jean you told me yourself!" Everyone laughed
making me more nervous.
Queen Jean giggled: "Yes, isn't it grand? And are you ready to except
those terms and become a girl fairy? Can you a boy do such a thing and
live up to and keep our laws and secrets?"
Darren: "Oh yes Majesty."
Queen Jean: "My, we are anxious! Who will give this lad to the
Sisterhood of the Lilac Butterfly?"
Queen Alexis stood: "I will!" She walked to me and put my left hand in
Queen Jean's Left hand. "I vouch for his honesty and integrity."
Queen Jean: "Why would you do such thing, after all he is just a boy?"
Queen Alexis: "I am the boy's Mother and know well his desires."
Queen Jean: "Council of Elders and sisters everywhere, are there any who
would deny this boy's request?" You could have heard a tear drop splash
on the floor. "Will the council then come and place their wands around
us in a circle, end to end on the floor." All of them came and placed
their wands around us including Mother and Jana. Jean kept hers. "Great
Amazon spirits I call upon your great powers once again this day. Change
this one from a boy to a girl and make no mistake, to the beautiful
fairy we know he will make."
She then winked at me while she touched her wand to my large, left toe
and a lavender glowing flame filled the circle then followed her wand as
he slowly raised it up my body. I never felt a thing until she reached
my crotch which became very warm, almost hot then suddenly there was an
electric shock that continued until she passed the top of my head. The
shock wave left and I suddenly felt very weak and different with my body
reacting to the warmth by sweating and trembling. I tingled everywhere
as though I had kissed the amethyst pendant several hundred times again.
I also remember thinking that Darren was now an insignificant part of my
past. Mother put her long war coat over me and hugged me. Mother slid
her hand under my fairy rob to confirm my change. As she touched my new
quivering clit it reacted startling me making me jump a lttle.
Queen Alexis: "It would appear we have a new fairy amongst us!"
Queen Jean: "Queen Mother Agatha has the council decided on her right to
pass?"
Queen Mother Agatha smiling: "We, The Great Council of Elders of the
Sisterhood of the Lilac Butterfly, extend loving arms to our new
Princess Warrior, Darla the Feminine!"
Queen Jean: "You may now recite the laws."
Darla sighed nervously: "A Pinky promise is a sacred vow between
Sisters. All secrets are told in the strictest confidence. Thursdays are
Pinky days always and something pink is to be worn. Sisters are always
good girls. Sisters always look pretty. Sisters always use good manners.
Sisters always love, care, and protect each other. Sisters are forever!
Queen Jean: "Is there any who would oppose this decision?" Deafening
silence was all that could be heard again. She put her pinky up and I
locked mine with hers and we kissed. She had a tiara made of sapphires
and rose topaz with a Lilac Butterfly Amethyst in the center that she
very carefully placed on my head. "As Queen I welcome you, Darla the
Feminine, Princess Warrior of the Sisterhood of the Lilac Butterfly."
All present cheered and applauded as another cool breeze passed through
the castle and a smoky image of an Amazon Queen appeared overhead and
spoke.
Hippolyte: "I Hippolyte, Queen and ruler over all Amazons welcome Darla
the Feminine to be counted as our sister for a period of twelve moons.
She will then make known to all of us her choice to remain as one of us
or to return to her previous state as a boy. I sense that there is
greatness with you and we shall be proud of you accomplishments." Then
the shade left in a cool breeze.
Queen Jean: "Now there is an important matter at hand." I had stopped
trembling but I was still very warm and nervous. "You may choose a
helper fairy to assist you. I am told you have already made such a
choice. If this is true please make your choice known to all." I could
feel Annie shaking on my shoulder hidden from sight and I found it hard
to speak.
Darla cleared her throat: "I have Majesty. It will be Miss Annabelle!" A
hushed gasp fell over all as she revealed herself and magically
appeared.
Queen Jean: "Miss Annabelle, how say you on this matter?"
Annie very enthusiastically stood at attention and saluted with her
fist: "Proudly accept I do!"
Queen Jean: "Then by power of the Great Council and Amazon spirits, I
grant that from here on that Miss Annabelle is given the responsibility
of Darla's helper." Queen Jean then pinky promised with Annie. As the
council retrieved their wands the circle was broken and the glowing
flame dissipated.
Everyone started to quietly chant: "Long live Princess Darla!" becoming
louder and louder and then changed. "Speech, speech!" Finally I just
gave in.
Princess Darla: "Anyone who says this was a boring meeting just wasn't
paying attention!" All give a laugh. "I am truly honored and as I told
Captain Naomi yesterday I will do my best to never ever disappoint any
of you. I have tried for several days to invent something classy for you
to remember me by..."
Someone in the crowd: "We love you anyway Princess!" Cheers to back her
up made me blush.
Darla: "Sword indefinite." I held my sword straight up over my head and
Mothers battle cloak fell to the floor. Annie copied my move standing on
my shoulder. "I will defend you all to the best of my ability now and
forever."
This little promise got me a standing ovation that lasted for several
minutes. I put my sword up and returned to Mother's side catching a
glimpse of a wink from Jana.
Queen Jean: "As Jana's first official act I pass the duty of closing to
her."
Jana hovered to center of the staging area then landed: "Isn't our new
Princess Warrior grand?" This brought a new round of cheers and
applause. She motioned for me to join her and when I did, she French
kissed me like never before. She kept me lip locked for an eternity
bringing 'ooh's' from all. "I'll get mine from you later lover." The
crowd laughed. "The castle helpers will be serving dandelion wine and
tea for those who are parched. Please enjoy each other's company and
always remember that Pinkies are forever!"
As she ended her sentence I whispered I had to go and she led the way to
the royal dressing room behind the thrones then pointed to a door. I
made beeline for it, opened the door to the commode hiked my gown,
pulled down my panties and proceeded drain my bladder. Something did not
feel the same though and the warm discharge seemed to be trickling down
my crotch as well. My breasts seemed to have grown in size and were
quite in the way of me looking down to see my new parts. My movements
felt awkward and different. I noticed my hands had taken on a totally
feminine appearance and had long perfectly manicured nails. When I
finished something told me I needed to wipe and sure enough not only did
I need to wipe but my boy toy had disappeared! Smiling I inspected
myself a little and found I now had a clit and when I touched the soft,
sensitive opening below it I quivered making my nipples hard. A
wonderful warm feeling came over me causing me to shiver for a brief
moment as the hairs on my neck stood straight out! My body was full of
sensations that were very different and wonderful. The nylons on my legs
felt much more slippery and sexy and my feet seemed to fit shoes as
though they were made for each other! My corset fit so much better and
did no longer cut into me. I let out a quiet little squealing sigh of
jot that Jana must have heard and evidently as I got up and left the
small room I was grinning like a Cheshire cat.
Jana stood waiting patiently: "Well evidently all of the new plumbing
seems to work! Are we enjoying ourselves? Did we remember to wipe?"
Darla: "Yes and yes!"
Jana: "That's my girl!"
Now I had a chance to look in the mirror and there was this very sexy,
very pretty chick staring at me with small, multi, color, sheer wings. I
looked on with amazement touching my face here and there. Gone from my
perfectly manicured hand were the heavy muscular fingers which made them
very delicate with soft, smooth, silky skin. My lips had taken on the
shape of Cupid's bow making me notice my lipstick was faded. I didn't
have my bag so I called upon my wand picturing my lipstick perfectly
applied then touched my lips and they were instantly bright red again.
Jana all smiles: "It is learning quickly. Come Sweetheart or we will be
missed!" She kissed me long and wet again. "Now you really turn me on!"
As we reentered the great hall several warriors were inspecting Trudy's
breastplate and had started asking Mother and Desiree all sorts of
questions. Q. M. Millicent was first to put her arms around me and
squeezed me really hard. Joey just had to be next and Q. M. Agatha put
her arm around me and walked through the crowd with me introducing first
one and then another. All twenty seven of the Elite Guard had to get a
hug as well as all most of everyone there. I must have hugged several
hundred fairies! All of them wished me well and "What a gorgeous
Princess you are. I do not see any boy there at all!" Of course Julia,
Mrs. Devon, Miss Morrow, Judith, Veronica, Leslie, Marian and all of the
Pinkies were there! I noticed Annie off to one side with many other
helpers surrounding her and asking many questions.
Tracey hugged me: "No more B. B., only my Princess Sister!" I could feel
my shoulder getting damp from her tears of both joy and sorrow.
Mother: "Can I have everyone's attention please? There is a reception
planned at my home and all are invited. I need all of those who
volunteered to help to come with us and you all may follow as you
desire."
Our circle formed right there in the great hall and consisted of Mother,
Aunt Jean, Joan, Carol, Veronica, Jana, Jennifer, Penny, Melanie,
Judith, Veronica, Leslie, Marian, Tracey and Q. M.'s Millicent, Joey and
Agatha. We started our backwards circle and soon we were in the living
room. Everyone scattered to take care of their special duties or to help
someone except Tracey, Veronica and I. we went out on the deck where the
back yard was a blaze of fireflies and colored lights while the others
"POOFED!" everything into readiness for the festivities.
Captain Naomi bowed saluting in flight in front of me: "I welcome you
home Princess Darla."
Darla saluted: "Rise Fearless Captain."
Captain Naomi: "We of the Queen's Guard wish you health, success and
happiness." She saluted then flew off so each member of the guard could
take took turns flying to me to pay respect to the new Princess.
Jana stepped through the sliding door: "Ah, there's my lover! Are we
overwhelmed yet?"
Darla: "I don't know."
Jana snickered: "Well I can fix that!" Again she took me into her arms
and held me in a lip lock like she used to do when she trapped me in the
hall in front of my friends. Then she kissed me several little short
pecks while staring into my eyes. "Now fix your lipstick Princess and
look pretty for our guests! They are beginning to arrive." Without
looking in a mirror I held my wand and pictured my lipstick perfectly
freshened then "POOF!" and I knew it looked right.
Veronica: "I can't wait until I learn to use my wand! I am like so
extremely excited."
Tracey giggled: "I remember that feeling. All I lived for was a day when
I could cause my old man grief but learned to control myself before I
learned how. Mother and I use our magic when he is in a drunken rage to
keep him from hurting us and then tell him he was seeing things! It's
hilarious! Last week he tried to hit me, I used my wand to deflect his
swing and he missed hitting himself in the jaw and knocking himself out
as cold as a Christmas turkey!"
Darla: "Get Jana to tell you about what Queen Jean did to her old man.
She considers my dad her real father."
Mother stepped through the sliding door: "Come Princess! It is time to
cut the cake!" I entered the house and everyone was crowded into the
living room and around the cake.
Q. M. Agatha: "Hurry Princess we are waiting!"
Jana: "Sisters, Darla and I cut this cake together as a symbol of our
royal inheritance and acceptance of Darla's duty. Come and share with
us!"
She put my right hand into her right hand and we picked up the knife and
made a first cut. All applauded and the festivities got under way. Jana
took me by the hand out to the pool where that satin covered chair was
and sat me down. Terri brought some cake and a fork and Judith brought
me some ice tea sweetened with honey suckle. Annie was getting a bite of
my cake as some of her helper fairy friends lit on the arms of the chair
to cajole with her. I shared my cake with them also.
Nancy: "Figures it does that pull such a sneaky trick to be first line
you would Annie dearest!"
Gwendolyn flew up and bowed to Darla: "Princess I am at your service. I
swear my allegiance to you; however I'll never surrender my command to
such a foolhardy fairy as Miss Annabelle! N-E-V-E-R, NEVER!"
Darla: "Rise Miss Gwendolyn and take heed, I am the future commander of
all and will not tolerate disobedience!"
Gwendolyn: "Yes Majesty, but you are not in charge yet!" She flew off
murmuring.
Misty after she was gone: "A bit jealous she is I think!"
Donna: "You just remember your promise and soon you'll be our leader
again Annie dearest!"
Megan: "Yea babe, 'cause we want you back! Gwendolyn is such a drag! Do
this my way or the highway! Do not speak until spoken to. Stand at
attention. Walk like a lady! Drill upon drill and more drills! That
fairy has more rules than the Elders! BAH HUMBUG says I!"
Natasha: "We are all jealous that Princess has chosen you Annie; however
we are all happy for you both at the same time! Alex chose Donna over
her and now you, Princess, chose Annie over her and ate up with it she
is!"
Lulu: "Hush all of you! We are boring Princess with details of our
miserable little lives."
Darla giggled: "Actually I was just enjoying all of you sitting with
me."
Annie strutted arrogantly: "Claudia's helper Gwendolyn was until the
witch betrayed us! An attitude adjustment is I think what Darren would
say she needs!"
Darla: "So that is why Queen Jean is suspicious of her going near the
Dark Wood!"
Annie: "Aye! Makes one wonder where her loyalties are it does."
Nancy: "Princess has Annie told you who she really is? She is more than
just Trudy's helper. Older than all of the helpers, she is the spirit of
a one of the greatest Amazon warrior queens ever. Andromache, a Queen
Warrior of the Thermodon Amazons, was known for her bravery and was
consistently victorious in battle. The fact is she never lost! Her most
famous conflict was with a horde of Greek pirates. The battle was known
as the First Doric Raid. She and I have been companions for so long I
can't remember life without her!"
Darla: "Is this true Annie?"
Annie sighed: "Aye 'tis true, but brag Annie does not! Just war stories
they are. To serve only my most precious Darla, my Queens and the
Council of Elders would be my heart's content! Please don't be mad at
Annie. "
Misty: "Yea, well you may not like to brag but denying who you really
are is quite another story. Annie we all love you dearly, but Princess
needs to know these things."
Donna: "Annie does not deny who she is; she just believes that actions
speak louder than words."
Darla grinned: "In all fairness to Annie we have only been friends for
two days and really have not had time to sit and chat over tea and
cakes."
Natasha giggled: "Aren't we having tea and cake now?" While we were
laughing Judith came up to me and grabbed my hand and tugged it.
Judith: "Princess I need a pool partner!" I left what remained of my
cake for the helpers and followed her into the family room.
So there I was trying to learn to shoot pool all over again with those
long red acrylic nails, feminine hands with long, slender fingers and
female body with big boobs and had no male coordination at all. It took
two games before I could begin to get any control and during the third I
found my wrist motion and we started winning! The first game was spent
learning how to make an open bridge with that delicate, pretty, frail,
female, left hand. My concentration seemed to be interrupted by just
looking at how pretty my hand was and those now super C size tits kept
bumping the stick throwing my shot off. Second game I changed the
weighting of my stick to compensate for my now less coordinated wrist
and learned how to get around my boobs. Third game I started sinking
balls and we nearly won. We controlled the next game and relinquished
the table ten games later.
Tracey during first game: "It would appear that Darla has lost Darren's
touch!"
Jana: "I knew he wasn't up to becoming a real girl!"
Judith during the second game: "I've lost my pool buddy!"
Darla: "Let's turn all of you into guys and see how well you all do!"
Several in unison yelled: "NOT IN THIS LIFETIME OR THE NEXT! YULK!"
The fourth game everyone was silent as I missed only once and then
cleared the table without a miss after sinking the eight ball.
Marti: "It would appear that lady luck was on your side this time."
Judith broke, Tracey scratched and no one else got shot as I cleared the
table just like Darren.
Darla slapped Judith a high five: "I'm b..a..c..k!" Ten games later.
"If I don't stop and eat something my belly button is going to touch my
backbone!" Judith, Jana and Tracey followed me to the kitchen where the
finger sandwiches and potato salad were.
Darla as she fixed her plate: "I think my boobs grew larger when I was
transformed. They seem heavier and kept getting in my way even more
while I tried to shoot pool!"
Jana: "Hmm... well you do look a bit fuller Sweetheart. Watchya think
Tracey?" Our helpers flew in and lit on our shoulders.
Tracey giggled: "I think B. B. is still in there and Darla is going to
become another kick butt tomboy! As far as boobs go I think she looks
like a very full C to me."
Judith smiled: "It would certainly appear that way on both accounts."
Jana with a twinkle in her eyes: "We shall have to give them a test
drive this weekend!" I gulped. "Oh yea, while I think about it, Mother
has changed that luncheon tea with Gayle Graves to Tuesday since Monday
is like Memorial Day. I cannot believe!" Doc Jones, Mother, Aunty and
Grandmother walked in.
Mother: "Doc this Darla used to be Darren."
Doc Jones: "She looks remarkably like Trudy! In fact more like Trudy's
daughter than Millie! Bring her Tuesday afternoon anyway so that I can
make certain her health is not in danger." She bowed before me.
Darla: "Rise good doctor and know that I truly love you for your noble
attempts to preserve my boyhood even though it was in vain and it was
stacked against me from the start to become the Princess. I will not
soon forget such a noble and honest deed as you will forever be held in
my heart in highest esteem as one who truly cares."
Doc Jones in astonishment: "Alex, she does honor me so! Princess Darla I
pledge myself and service to you forever."
Grandmother grinning proudly: "She is most certainly my Kenny's
offspring and has done well this day making all of us very proud!"
Aunty: "I thought I heard Memorial Day mentioned as we came in. Are we
going to our usual little out of the way picnic area at the park again
this year?"
Mother: "Of course! Andy has already said he would be certain our
favorite place was clean, tidy and reserved."
Jana: "Oh, you mean our sweet, big bellied, sweaty headed and B. O.
cousin, the stranger park ranger?"
Mother: "How sweet, you remember. Now we must be kind to other family
Jana."
Grandmother: "Yes we must."
Aunty: "Look, we get him to do this for us and all we ever have to do is
humor this man and let him eat with us. So let's get it through our
heads right now to try and be nice to him."
Darla: "Yea I know, he is boring, thinks he is a nature encyclopedia,
and has the personality of the Crocodile Hunter but Dad likes him and he
does try."
Mother: "Exactly and that is why we are all going to be on our best
behavior aren't we sisters!"
Aunty: "Yes we are! So what is the rest of the plan?"
Mother: "Oh potato salad, chips, burgers and hotdogs on the grill,
roasted marshmallows, Smores and just whatever we can dream up for a fun
day cooking out!"
Aunty: "Mother why don't you make some of your deviled eggs?"
Our special little out of the way picnic table was sort of isolated on a
small rise where we could see the fireworks but didn't have to cope with
the mainstream of people inspecting us and our meal. Andy was Dad and
Aunty Jean's cousin who lived on the outskirts of town and we only saw
on holidays or special occasions. Darren and Andy got along well but
Darla was having some reservations about being around him again. Seems
that last year he came by after helping to get a forest fire under
control and was really sweaty and stunk and hugged me making me smell
terrible! It took two baths to get the stench off! Eeeww! I quivered at
the memory. I also remembered Andy telling Darren all about the fire and
joking with him about it. We looked at the scorched acreage using Google
Earth and had made plans for me to camp at the park with him this
summer! Well that's not going to happen now! As I sifted through these
double sided memories the others had been chatting right on.
Grandmother: "Jean do you remember when we used to make ice-cream and
had homemade root beer?"
Aunty: "Who could forget all those wonderful hours of cranking that fool
handle during the heat of the afternoon? Then you finally taught me how
to make it crank seemingly by itself!" Agatha laughed. "It wasn't so
funny to me at the time because I had to be constantly on the lookout
for Father! Heaven only knows what would have happened if he had seen
it."
Grandmother: "Your Father did not believe in 'all of those 'fairy
shenanigans' and would have been scared silly. Jackie don't you agree
that it was amusing?" Jackie was Grandmother's helper.
Jackie giggled: "Me tinks you gotta do some tings da hard way ta
'preciate da easy way."
Aunty: "The easy way? You mean keeping watch for father or other folks
that might see as the easy way? 'NOT!' One is just less physically
consuming than the other, but is in no way easier!"
Somehow from here we got to discussing soaps and I suddenly found I had
an unending well of knowledge about General Hospital and Days of Our
Lives. I seemed to know all about the Quartermanes, Cassadines, Luke and
Laura Spencer, Robert and Anna Scorpio, Sonny Corenthose, Jason Morgan,
Carly, Jasper and Jerry Jax, Alexis, and of course the ever absolute
epitome of stupidity Scot Baldwin! From nowhere I seemed to be able to
recall events, times and places in very intricate detail! As I gazed off
into space daydreaming and just trying to figure out how I knew all this
seemingly pertinent info Mother caught me.
Mother snapped her fingers in front of my face: "Come out, come out
wherever you are Sweetheart."
Darla shook her head: "I ah, was thinking... um, about how I ah, seem to
um, know all about soaps?"
Mother with a sparkle in her eyes: "Ladies of all ages keep up their
soaps dear!" Then her voice became a singing higher pitch. "Welcome to
womanhood dear!"
During this time in the kitchen I had been munching those finger
sandwiches and potato salad. They all started to migrate toward the deck
while I lagged behind contemplating hiding in the bathroom and checking
out the new me.
Darla: "Annie, would you mind if I had some time alone to think?"
Annie grinned: "Aye. A long day it has been. Understand Annie does!" She
flew into the family room and I headed for my room.
My room was the total shocker! I really don't know what part caught my
eyes first as I switched the lights on. The walls, starting at my left,
were a continuous mural of scenes from various Tomb Raider games, and
encompassed the entire wall space of the room! My bed had turned into
the most feminine canopy bed one could ever imagine; soft pink satin
with white lacy trim and matching dust ruffles. The comforter was white,
quilted satin and had a huge almost life size image of Lara Croft, in
blue chiffon baby dolls with pink fluffy trim, lying on her left side
and her head propped delicately on her left, perfectly manicured, hand
in the middle of a black cat rug reminiscent of the first Tomb Raider
game. I no longer had a maple finished chest of drawers but had a long
dresser with four sets of four drawers in white, with pink inlay and
gold trim and a mirror that stretched its entire length. In the middle
was a matching jewelry box that when opened had a Lara Croft figure that
twirled to the tune of "Tomb Raider Chronicles" on a music box. The
lamps on either end where white porcelain and resembled pyramids with
small ruffled lacy shades. My computer building bench was about the same
but was incredibly organized and the new super computer was right where
I had left it. My desk however was another story. It too had been
finished in white and pink inlay with a pink, Formica top covered with
glass under which were pictures of many past events in my life including
pictures of Perky at the science fair with Darla not Darren. A full
length mirror hung on my closet door and inside there was not a sign of
my boy things anywhere. There was, however a black softball glove
trimmed in pink, a magenta, anodized, aluminum, softball bat, pink,
leather, spike shoes, a light, blue, softball uniform with pink stripes
and blue visor that said Fran's Diner on it. The all girl wardrobe was
both familiar and unfamiliar at the same time which was troubling to say
the least! Somehow I knew many of my fairy sisters were on the Fran's
team and I could remember winning our division playoff last year!
As I took all this in I couldn't help but wonder just how girly I had
really become physically and closed the closet door to get a full length
look at myself up close and personal. As I gazed at my image in the
mirror in total disbelief I turned sideways and the steel ribs in my
corset created a perfect oval arch between my nipples and belly button!
From the front my hour glass figure was not to be missed as my thirty
six inch bust tapered to my twenty four inch waist and then expanded to
my thirty two inch hips. Gone were my sort of boney knees and heavy
ankles. My hair had turned to the softest silk you can imagine
(Pantene?) My nails were no longer artificial but were longer and real!
I turned sideways again and cupped my hands under my new cleavage then
slowly ran them down to my waist to feel this marvelous curvature
created by my body and corset and knew I could never return to being
Darren ever! It was while in this revelry of the new me that I noticed
Mother in the doorway.
Mother all smiles: "Well, are we pleased with the changes or not?" I
quickly moved to her and hugged her tightly kissing her lips with a tear
of joy in my eyes.
Darla sniffled: "Mother I feel so pretty and different!"
Mother: "I am going to miss my baby boy but am going to enjoy my Baby
Doll even more! Come Baby Doll, we have guests that are concerned about
your disappearance."
As we stepped out onto the deck I truly allowed myself to feel like a
princess for the first time as Annie lit on my right shoulder and kissed
my ear. The rest of the evening began to slowly wind down as our sisters
left in small groups with Q. M.'s Joey and Millicent making lingering
departures, until Jana, Tracey, Jean, Grandmother, Mother and I were
together sipping tea at the kitchen table and all others were gone. No
one made any snide remarks including Jana which made me wonder what she
had on her mind. After a long silence Tracey was first to speak.
Tracey lovingly: "I absolutely did not think you would go through with
this sister dear."
Jana softly: "I did. Darren always liked it when we made him dress up.
He was always a bit girly any way. That is what made me love him so."
Aunty Jean: "I know I loved Darren but will love Darla even more!"
Annie: "A purpose now I have and a task to full fill! Annie owes you
everything."
Grandmother: "Darren was a courageous lad that unselfishly committed
himself to a family responsibility and followed it through bravely.
Doing so has cost him his place in this world as a man. Darla has his
heart, soul and courage to sustain her as she takes her rightful place
as Princess Warrior and to protect us all."
Misty: ""tis only a trial. Darren may return after all."
Donna: "Hush your nasty mouth! Why we just shant allow that to happen."
Jackie: "I cannot imagine Darla ever even considering returning to a
boy. Joey maybe but not Darla!"
Mother: "This kind of talk could go on forever and it is nearly two!
Ladies, we really need our beauty rest. Let's lock the house and turn
in." She snapped her fingers and golden sparkles tinkled to the floor as
she giggled. "Some chores can be such a bother!"
Mother and Jean retired to her room and before closing her door there
was a loud "POOF!" and all I could see were silver sparkles tinkling
then my room appeared. I zapped myself into my blue satin night shirt
and removed my makeup in one tap of my wand. I was admiring myself again
as I realized that the satin night shirt felt even more smooth and silky
than ever before and seemed to be more fitted. My face appeared to be
very smooth and my nose seemed to be much smaller. My lips had a much
more feminine shape and my ears did not seem as large nor did they stick
out like before. My hips were definitely more round and my legs had new
curves and all the blemishes had disappeared. Jana came in as I started
to slide under my satin sheets to kiss me good night. As she hugged and
caressed me I felt her soft arms gently closing in around my new,
delicate, curves and satin night shirt making me shiver and grin. I felt
smaller but not weaker and very sexy.
Jana: "You have turned into such a babe!" As she kissed me I felt
something twitch about were my penis used to be and couldn't help
grinning even wider. "What pray tell is so amusing?"
Darla: "My crotch twitched when you kissed me and it tickled." Annie
giggled.
Jana gave a short squeak: "Well we will have to take your new bod for a
test drive pretty soon! Good night lover." She kissed me again and I
began feel warm all over sort of like when I used to get turned on as a
boy only much more intense.
She turned out the light by snapping her fingers and there was a quiet
