What could Karyn do? She looked at the stone then at the eyes of her friend, franticly struggling, almost begging and pleading for some miracle.
Karyn gripped the stone to make her wish: "I-
Suddenly Jasmine lept with incredible speed to the stone snatching it back
"I wish-" the words came but wouldnt come out. The catgirl meowed in a shreek as Jon somehow managed to stop her this time. Karyn quickly tried to grab it only to be batted away by a very strong hand. The cat made the only wish any cat could ever make when crossed. "I can never die!"
There was a flash of light and internally Jon was already trying to work out the ramifications of that wish. She wasnt sure if it meant her body was immortal now, but almost certainly it meant that the cat inside his mind could no longer simply be wished away. "No!" He clutched his head. He was so distracted he didnt even realise Jasmine was making more wishes.
She looked herself in the mirror at the strange human cat hybrid. "I wish I was more sexy!" Her hair grew, as well as her chest. "I wish I was even more sexy!" Her hips widened slightly, yet still retained her cat like grace. "I wish I was pritty! I wish I Was beautiful! I Wish I was even more beautiful!" Jasmine seemed to go on a roll with the wishes demanding more and more as she achieved a state of cat like perfection. Jon somehow prayed that maybe asking more would contradict the previous wish but it didn't look like it.
Jasmine poked her chest with dissatisfaction. "I wish Id have lots and lots of milk for my litter!" The stone glowed briefly at that. "I wish I was just as sensitive as when I was a cat!" "I wish I would always draw attention to everyone!"
Jon had to wrestle control back he just had to! Jasmine was starting to go crazy!
"I wish for everything I could want!"
Knowing the full power of this stone, Jon feared the absolute worst fate. This kind of wish in the hands of a simple cat was beyond terrifying. She was thinking completely of herself. An Animal. A predatory animal that only cared about eating, sleeping and reproduction. Wait a minute! He was also in this body.. and he knew exactly what would make him happy.
He concentrated, and the light of the wish caught his mind too as if a vague echo and afterthought. They were both the wisher, as both were holding the stone within one body. Surly he could use this wish too? He couldnt use this like a wish though.... there was no time to forumlate the best kind of happyness.
"What would make me happy! Please just.. let me be allowed to have control!" He thought it frantically.
Jon blinked He felt... strange. He could still feel jasmine in the back of her mind.
"Jon why? I'm your cat. You can't do this to me! I'm your cat!"
"Jasmine.. I'm .. sorry... You made a wish for happiness... maybe we can restore you to .."
"No! I don't want to go back to being just an animal.. I have seen.. and know.. so much now... We're the same! What.. would make me.. happy.. is just to be alive... to feel alive... to ... "
Jon felt strange as Jasmines thoughts tickled inside her. He was having difficulty with where their minds ended and began.. it looked like they were merging. His tail and ears twitched at every thought of Jasmines words.
"Jon... please... I am a cat... we are born to have kittens... I have not had any... you have to continue my line... I only wanted a mate.... you have my body.. and now you have.. my mind.. my thoughts.. belong to you now. If any part of me survives... it will be that... you cant.. deny.. me... this... never deny... a cat her..."
These were the thoughts of a cat, Jon realised. They were integrating into him. He quietly pushed them aside, though that small piece of Jasmine was still in the back, waiting to influence him.
He looked back at Karyn unsure what to do. He tried to rouse her. "kayrn?"
She opened her eyes "Jas..mine?" She hugged her amazed at how the cat girl felt. "Are you.. still... you?"
"I... think.. so.." he said not really sure how to explain it and feeling slight betrayal knowing he was not the girl shes thinking of. "I feel... strange. But I'll be fine." At least he hoped so. He completely lost track of every wish Jasmine had made. He will have to wish to know them all later and how they might affect him in his new catgirl body. He never actually wished to be in this form... maybe he could unwish himself? Or maybe wish for a teleporter accident that would undo the first one...
He blinked as she suddenly realised she had been passionately kissing Karyn for the last five minutes. "Ah! Im.. s.. sorry!" This had to be the result of one of those wishes! stone in hand he ran out of the bathroom.
