Joshua was on a school field trip to the zoo. His favorite animals were the hippopotami. He loved hippos so much, he went into their enclosure and turned into one.

First, his skin turned gray and rough. His arms became flabby, his fingers became pudgy, and reduced to four. Joshua’s belly bursted out as his clothes ripped off. His butt fattened up, with a little tail above it. His legs became thicker, and his toes conjoined into three. Joshua’s fingernails and toenails turned black. “Why am Ah so fat?” Joshua covered his mouth, noticing his voice had changed. He now had the voice of Jada Pinkett Smith. His gender shifts, turning him Female. SHE grew taller, then she felt her head tingle. Her hair disappeared completely. Her ears move to the top of her head and reappeared as tiny little flaps. her nose fused with her mouth and formed a big hippo muzzle. Her nostrils became triangular, with V-shaped indent connecting them across her nose. She opens her new mouth, as all her teeth disappear, except for the four teeth in the corners, which enlarge. Not only did her body and voice change, but her personality as well! She is now sassy, feisty, flirty, and heartwarming. And finally, her mind gets foggy as her memories are replaced. She begins to think she’s always been a big fat female hippo name Gloria. “Wow! Ah feel pretty good!”, said Gloria the hippo. She jumps into her new pool, ready to enjoy her permeant life.

For my good friend Joshua aka  54065001 who loves turning into Gloria the Hippo from Madagascar.
