Six Short AR Stories

Chapter 6
Small Joke

Chapter Description: Always be sure to take responsibility for a badly considered prank.

Not funny, not funny at all. It's one thing to play some harmless prank but it helps to be able to fix it if it's a harmful one.

Only there's a little hitch to this prank, it can't be fixed.

“What do you mean that it's broken?” Doing her best to not wince at her newly restored lisp from what's happened, plus the feeling of her new clothes between her legs and everywhere else around her body, she glares up at her younger sister who is trying to get what looks like a crystal to work.

It had just been working when her sister had tricked her to pick it up claiming it was a new crystal mineral, she had an interest in such things although only a minor one due to an interest in geology. Only it hadn't been a crystal as such.
She had picked it up with an intent on examining it when there was a sudden feeling of warmth from the 'crystal' and her world became bigger as her clothes changed, her underwear becoming a thick nappy while her bra melded with her top and jeans to become a pair of baby, or toddler, sized overalls with a bee on the pocket. Where she had been about as tall as her sister she was now barely coming up to her knees and while this was happening her sister had squealed “APRIL FOOLS!' and laughed.

She wasn't laughing now.

“I mean it's broken, I was told that I just had to point it at you and say let you be restored and you would age back after I had a good laugh. It's not working though” Bloody right it wasn't working.

“You might be stuck like this for a while, maybe you'll age back”

“Maybe I'll age back? Maybe? If I'm stuck like this then you are going to be changing my nappies for the rest of your life and you just now that our parents are going to freak at what's happened” Her sister looks away for a second before replying.

“They won't, I was told that if the change was accidentally permanent that people will just see you as you currently are, they won't remember how you used to be. I'm the only one who will. Also to everyone else you'll just sound like a young child, to me you'll sound like you used to. I was told that it could be a small risk but I didn't consider that it would actually leave you stuck like this”

“ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! YOU'VE REDUCED ME TO A NAPPY DEPENDENT CHILD BECAUSE YOU WANTED TO PLAY SOME PRANK ON ME! YOU'VE TAKEN MY LIFE AWAY FROM ME FOR A JOKE!” This was not what she had planned for her life, she didn't want to be stuck like this, she had her own life to live!

“All I can say is oops and sorry” Oh she would be saying more than that now that her body was letting her know exactly how young she was.

“You didn't”

“Considering how young I am now then what were you expecting? You had better take care of me, I'm too young to care for myself because of you”

“But already? Couldn't you have waited a couple of hours?”

“It wasn't like I intended to, now change me! You did this, you have to take responsibility!” Her sister gulps as she picks up her former big sister who's rather thick padding is in need of changing, her now baby sister giving her angry glares.

“My nappies better be thick, it was comfortable until just now” Regretting her actions, her now big sister resigns to her fate due to not really having a choice. She had made this mess, she was going to have to clean it. Literally.
