Stacy grinned a little at lunch in the school. He had an entire table of food all to himself, and his dinosaur body did need it. Some of the other big kids (well teenagers, was the word right?) stared at him. Being so large, he was used to the stares. Not to mention the large teeth he had often brought attention to the other predator like changed.
Stacy wasn't always like this of course. Actually he used to be a little girl. Strange but true. He had fond memories of that time, and growing up so quickly in this body gave him certain memories and instincts to work with. It wasn't 'knowledge' exactly, but he just kind of knew things. His body was built on sheer strength. It was strange in going from a body that could do very little, and always had to depend on others... to suddenly being able to do absolutely anything- even requiring to hold back when doing something as simple as carry a plate. He could probably smash through brick walls if he wanted to. His jaws were in particular, very powerful.
Looking at other grown up girls made him feel strange too. Still, it wasn't a bad feeling. And he discovered some of the other... issues of being male. (was it normal for things to be that big down there?) Probably the strangest thing of all though he had to admit... being a guy, was actually pretty awesome. The way people looked at him was different. It was like nobody could talk down to him any more. Though that might have been due to his original age, more then his gender. Still he kind of knew what it was like when a person was helpless, having been so himself- and he honestly, couldn't wait to grow up. Now he had! This wasn't a bad transformation at all to him.
His thoughts drifted to his new little sister Lilly. He wanted to do everything he could for her now. He even gave her all of his old clothes as a present. It wasn't as if he could use them any more. But for some reason Lilly reacted very badly to it. It confused the dinosaur boy. She needed the clothes, he gave them... why didn't she want them? And of course, they had to get a whole new set of clothes for himself.
Stacy was happy being a girl before and thinking to grow up as one. Why can't his new sister be too? He used to like playing with her too as humans. Those memories were still fresh, and there was little he would do now that she was the little one.
The first thing he wanted to do when he got to this school, was sort out all the bullies. He was a protector of others first, that is how he viewed himself. A gentle giant, was all he wanted to be in this new world extending that protective feeling he had to his sister to others. It made him feel good about himself. Stacy was happy though to see that there were very few bullies in the school. Most of them had already had their comeuppance, usually from being unable to handle a transformation. He continued to wolf down another roast, but was still feeling a little hungry.
The dinosaur boy then grinned looking down to that strange girl with the weird horn. "Hey there," He said.
The girl looked up at him. She had seen him around. Tiffany looked annoyed for a moment. it was like this dinosaur was so strong before her, and it emphasised for a moment what she lost. "Why are you talking to me you freak?"
Stacy blinked. "Cause you're alone." He said. "What's the problem?"
Tiffany didn't pay him any further mind and simply walked away. Her strange luminescent clothes giving their faint white-ish glow.
Stacy was left to ponder such a strange turn of events. He never thought himself as a freak.
"Ignore her," Said a rat-boy. "That's Tiffany. She's like that to everyone. I'm Ben," he smiled, twitching his whiskers a bit.
Stacy grinned at the friendly boy. "Hi, I'm Stacy."
Ben's eyes widened. "Wow! You.. used to be a girl?"
"Uh huh," smiled the dinosaur boy. "Were you?"
"No!" Ben squeaked. Suddenly he felt a little empathy of what Steven must be going through as a flower-girl. His friend being a girl was still really weird... but now meeting a boy that used to be a girl? And he was a really big one at that... "So... you are new to this school?"
"Yes, I used to be in- well another." Stacy didn't really want to spread that he used to be in a kindergarten. That might make things even stranger for the rat boy. It was at times like this he was glad his transformation gave him certain instincts to work with. He certainly wasn't a juvenile in his head. Maybe a little innocent, but his mind was very mature. Though still capable of the immaturities of a teenager.
"Well, you sure eaten half the cafeteria food. I hope you don't get sick." Ben grinned exaggerating it a little.
Stacy smiled too. "I like this. It's fun. Everything's so different and fun now."
For some reason that made Ben just a little nervous. He hoped the power the dinosaur boy had wont go to his head.
